OpenSSL CHANGES
_______________
- Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
- *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
- can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
+ *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New build option "fipscanisteronly". This only builds fipscanister.o
+ and (currently) associated fips utilities. Uses the file Makefile.fips
+ instead of Makefile.org as the prototype.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add some FIPS mode restrictions to GCM. Add internal IV generator.
+ Update fips_gcmtest to use IV generator.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial, experimental EVP support for AES-GCM. AAD can be input by
+ setting output buffer to NULL. The *Final function must be
+ called although it will not retrieve any additional data. The tag
+ can be set or retrieved with a ctrl. The IV length is by default 12
+ bytes (96 bits) but can be set to an alternative value. If the IV
+ length exceeds the maximum IV length (currently 16 bytes) it cannot be
+ set before the key.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New flag in ciphers: EVP_CIPH_FLAG_CUSTOM_CIPHER. This means the
+ underlying do_cipher function handles all cipher semantics itself
+ including padding and finalisation. This is useful if (for example)
+ an ENGINE cipher handles block padding itself. The behaviour of
+ do_cipher is subtly changed if this flag is set: the return value
+ is the number of characters written to the output buffer (zero is
+ no longer an error code) or a negative error code. Also if the
+ input buffer is NULL and length 0 finalisation should be performed.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) If a candidate issuer certificate is already part of the constructed
+ path ignore it: new debug notification X509_V_ERR_PATH_LOOP for this case.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Improve forward-security support: add functions
+
+ void SSL_CTX_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL_CTX *ctx, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
+ void SSL_set_not_resumable_session_callback(SSL *ssl, int (*cb)(SSL *ssl, int is_forward_secure))
+
+ for use by SSL/TLS servers; the callback function will be called whenever a
+ new session is created, and gets to decide whether the session may be
+ cached to make it resumable (return 0) or not (return 1). (As by the
+ SSL/TLS protocol specifications, the session_id sent by the server will be
+ empty to indicate that the session is not resumable; also, the server will
+ not generate RFC 4507 (RFC 5077) session tickets.)
+
+ A simple reasonable callback implementation is to return is_forward_secure.
+ This parameter will be set to 1 or 0 depending on the ciphersuite selected
+ by the SSL/TLS server library, indicating whether it can provide forward
+ security.
+ [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
+
+ *) Add Next Protocol Negotiation,
+ http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-agl-tls-nextprotoneg-00. Can be
+ disabled with a no-npn flag to config or Configure. Code donated
+ by Google.
+ [Adam Langley <agl@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
+
+ *) Use type ossl_ssize_t instad of ssize_t which isn't available on
+ all platforms. Move ssize_t definition from e_os.h to the public
+ header file e_os2.h as it now appears in public header file cms.h
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function OPENSSL_gmtime_diff to find the difference in days
+ and seconds between two tm structures. This will be used to provide
+ additional functionality for ASN1_TIME.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New -sigopt option to the ca, req and x509 utilities. Additional
+ signature parameters can be passed using this option and in
+ particular PSS.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add RSA PSS signing function. This will generate and set the
+ appropriate AlgorithmIdentifiers for PSS based on those in the
+ corresponding EVP_MD_CTX structure. No application support yet.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Support for companion algorithm specific ASN1 signing routines.
+ New function ASN1_item_sign_ctx() signs a pre-initialised
+ EVP_MD_CTX structure and sets AlgorithmIdentifiers based on
+ the appropriate parameters.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new algorithm specific ASN1 verification initialisation function
+ to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD: this is not in EVP_PKEY_METHOD since the ASN1
+ handling will be the same no matter what EVP_PKEY_METHOD is used.
+ Add a PSS handler to support verification of PSS signatures: checked
+ against a number of sample certificates.
+ [Steve Henson]
- More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
- information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
- parameters r, s.
+ *) Add signature printing for PSS. Add PSS OIDs.
+ [Steve Henson, Martin Kaiser <lists@kaiser.cx>]
+
+ *) Add algorithm specific signature printing. An individual ASN1 method
+ can now print out signatures instead of the standard hex dump.
+
+ More complex signatures (e.g. PSS) can print out more meaningful
+ information. Include DSA version that prints out the signature
+ parameters r, s.
[Steve Henson]
*) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
multi-process servers.
[Steve Henson]
- *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
- a few changes are required:
-
- Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
- Add TLSv1_1 methods.
- Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
- Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
- Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
- [Steve Henson]
-
*) Experiemental password based recipient info support for CMS library:
implementing RFC3211.
[Steve Henson]
is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
whose return value is often ignored.
[Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.0d and 1.0.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Add functions to copy EVP_PKEY_METHOD and retrieve flags and id.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add EC_GFp_nistp224_method(), a 64-bit optimized implementation for
+ elliptic curve NIST-P224 with constant-time single point multiplication on
+ typical inputs. EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name() will automatically use this
+ (while EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() currently won't and prefers the more
+ flexible implementations).
+
+ The implementation requires support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t,
+ and so is disabled by default. To include this in your build of OpenSSL,
+ use -DEC_NISTP224_64_GCC_128 on the Configure (or config) command line,
+ and run "make depend" (or "make update").
+ [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
+
+ *) Permit abbreviated handshakes when renegotiating using the function
+ SSL_renegotiate_abbreviated().
+ [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
+
+ *) Add call to ENGINE_register_all_complete() to
+ ENGINE_load_builtin_engines(), so some implementations get used
+ automatically instead of needing explicit application support.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for TLS key exporter as described in RFC5705.
+ [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>, Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial TLSv1.1 support. Since TLSv1.1 is very similar to TLS v1.0 only
+ a few changes are required:
+
+ Add SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 flag.
+ Add TLSv1_1 methods.
+ Update version checking logic to handle version 1.1.
+ Add explicit IV handling (ported from DTLS code).
+ Add command line options to s_client/s_server.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.0c and 1.0.0d [8 Feb 2011]
+
+ *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
+ [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
+
+ *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
+ escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
+ ambiguous.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.0b and 1.0.0c [2 Dec 2010]
+
+ *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
+ and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
+ Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
+ Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
+ Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
+ [Ben Laurie]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.0a and 1.0.0b [16 Nov 2010]
+
+ *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
+ overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
+ be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix WIN32 build system to correctly link an ENGINE directory into
+ a DLL.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [01 Jun 2010]
- Changes between 0.9.8m and 1.0.0 [25 Feb 2010]
+ *) Check return value of int_rsa_verify in pkey_rsa_verifyrecover
+ (CVE-2010-1633)
+ [Steve Henson, Peter-Michael Hager <hager@dortmund.net>]
+
+ Changes between 0.9.8n and 1.0.0 [29 Mar 2010]
*) Add "missing" function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_copy(). This copies a cipher
context. The operation can be customised via the ctrl mechanism in
it from client hello again. Don't allow server to change algorithm.
[Steve Henson]
- *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
- change when encrypting or decrypting.
- [Bodo Moeller]
-
*) Add load_crls() function to apps tidying load_certs() too. Add option
to verify utility to allow additional CRLs to be included.
[Steve Henson]
*) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.
[NTT]
- Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [xx XXX xxxx]
-
+ Changes between 0.9.8q and 0.9.8r [8 Feb 2011]
+
+ *) Fix parsing of OCSP stapling ClientHello extension. CVE-2011-0014
+ [Neel Mehta, Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
+
+ *) Fix bug in string printing code: if *any* escaping is enabled we must
+ escape the escape character (backslash) or the resulting string is
+ ambiguous.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 0.9.8p and 0.9.8q [2 Dec 2010]
+
+ *) Disable code workaround for ancient and obsolete Netscape browsers
+ and servers: an attacker can use it in a ciphersuite downgrade attack.
+ Thanks to Martin Rex for discovering this bug. CVE-2010-4180
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fixed J-PAKE implementation error, originally discovered by
+ Sebastien Martini, further info and confirmation from Stefan
+ Arentz and Feng Hao. Note that this fix is a security fix. CVE-2010-4252
+ [Ben Laurie]
+
+ Changes between 0.9.8o and 0.9.8p [16 Nov 2010]
+
+ *) Fix extension code to avoid race conditions which can result in a buffer
+ overrun vulnerability: resumed sessions must not be modified as they can
+ be shared by multiple threads. CVE-2010-3864
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix for double free bug in ssl/s3_clnt.c CVE-2010-2939
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Don't reencode certificate when calculating signature: cache and use
+ the original encoding instead. This makes signature verification of
+ some broken encodings work correctly.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) ec2_GF2m_simple_mul bugfix: compute correct result if the output EC_POINT
+ is also one of the inputs.
+ [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
+
+ *) Don't repeatedly append PBE algorithms to table if they already exist.
+ Sort table on each new add. This effectively makes the table read only
+ after all algorithms are added and subsequent calls to PKCS12_pbe_add
+ etc are non-op.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 0.9.8n and 0.9.8o [01 Jun 2010]
+
+ [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.8o and later 0.9.8 patch levels were released after
+ OpenSSL 1.0.0.]
+
+ *) Correct a typo in the CMS ASN1 module which can result in invalid memory
+ access or freeing data twice (CVE-2010-0742)
+ [Steve Henson, Ronald Moesbergen <intercommit@gmail.com>]
+
+ *) Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). SHA2 is becoming far more
+ common in certificates and some applications which only call
+ SSL_library_init and not OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() will fail.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) VMS fixes:
+ Reduce copying into .apps and .test in makevms.com
+ Don't try to use blank CA certificate in CA.com
+ Allow use of C files from original directories in maketests.com
+ [Steven M. Schweda" <sms@antinode.info>]
+
+ Changes between 0.9.8m and 0.9.8n [24 Mar 2010]
+
+ *) When rejecting SSL/TLS records due to an incorrect version number, never
+ update s->server with a new major version number. As of
+ - OpenSSL 0.9.8m if 'short' is a 16-bit type,
+ - OpenSSL 0.9.8f if 'short' is longer than 16 bits,
+ the previous behavior could result in a read attempt at NULL when
+ receiving specific incorrect SSL/TLS records once record payload
+ protection is active. (CVE-2010-0740)
+ [Bodo Moeller, Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org>]
+
*) Fix for CVE-2010-0433 where some kerberos enabled versions of OpenSSL
could be crashed if the relevant tables were not present (e.g. chrooted).
[Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>]
- Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [xx XXX xxxx]
+ Changes between 0.9.8l and 0.9.8m [25 Feb 2010]
+
+ *) Always check bn_wexpend() return values for failure. (CVE-2009-3245)
+ [Martin Olsson, Neel Mehta]
*) Fix X509_STORE locking: Every 'objs' access requires a lock (to
accommodate for stack sorting, always a write lock!).
CVE-2009-4355.
[Steve Henson]
+ *) Constify crypto/cast (i.e., <openssl/cast.h>): a CAST_KEY doesn't
+ change when encrypting or decrypting.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
*) Add option SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT which will allow clients to
connect and renegotiate with servers which do not support RI.
Until RI is more widely deployed this option is enabled by default.
