OpenSSL CHANGES
_______________
- Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4
+ Changes between 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 [xx XXX 1999]
+
+ *) Fixes and enhancements to the 'x509' utility. It allowed a message
+ digest to be passed on the command line but it only used this
+ parameter when signing a certificate. Modified so all relevant
+ operations are affected by the digest parameter including the
+ -fingerprint and -x509toreq options. Also -x509toreq choked if a
+ DSA key was used because it didn't fix the digest.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Very preliminary certificate chain verify code. Currently just tests
+ the untrusted certificates for consistency with the verify purpose
+ (which is set when the X509_STORE_CTX structure is set up) and checks
+ the pathlength. There is a NO_CHAIN_VERIFY compilation option to keep
+ the old behaviour: this is because when it is finally working it will
+ reject chains with invalid extensions whereas before it made no checks
+ at all.
+
+ Preliminary untested trust code.
+
+ Also added X509_STORE_CTX_new() and X509_STORE_CTX_free() functions
+ which should be used for version portability: especially since the
+ verify structure is likely to change more often now.
+
+ Two new options to the verify program: -untrusted allows a set of
+ untrusted certificates to be passed in and -purpose which sets the
+ intended purpose of the certificate. If a purpose is set then the
+ new chain verify code is used to check extension consistency.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Support for the authority information access extension.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Modify RSA and DSA PEM read routines to transparently handle
+ PKCS#8 format private keys. New *_PUBKEY_* functions that handle
+ public keys in a format compatible with certificate
+ SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures. Unfortunately there were already
+ functions called *_PublicKey_* which used various odd formats so
+ these are retained for compatability: however the DSA variants were
+ never in a public release so they have been deleted. Changed dsa/rsa
+ utilities to handle the new format: note no releases ever handled public
+ keys so we should be OK.
+
+ The primary motivation for this change is to avoid the same fiasco
+ that dogs private keys: there are several incompatible private key
+ formats some of which are standard and some OpenSSL specific and
+ require various evil hacks to allow partial transparent handling and
+ even then it doesn't work with DER formats. Given the option anything
+ other than PKCS#8 should be dumped: but the other formats have to
+ stay in the name of compatability.
+
+ With public keys and the benefit of hindsight one standard format
+ is used which works with EVP_PKEY, RSA or DSA structures: though
+ it clearly returns an error if you try to read the wrong kind of key.
+
+ Added a -pubkey option to the 'x509' utility to output the public key.
+ Also rename the EVP_PKEY_get_*() to EVP_PKEY_rget_*() and add
+ EVP_PKEY_rset_*() functions that do the same as the EVP_PKEY_assign_*()
+ except they up the reference count of the added key (they don't "swallow"
+ the supplied key).
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fixes to crypto/x509/by_file.c the code to read in certificates and
+ CRLs would fail if the file contained no certificates or no CRLs:
+ added a new function to read in both types and return the number
+ read: this means that if none are read it will be an error. The
+ DER versions of the certificate and CRL reader would always fail
+ because it isn't possible to mix certificates and CRLs in DER format
+ without choking one or the other routine. Changed this to just read
+ a certificate: this is the best we can do. Also modified the code
+ in apps/verify.c to take notice of return codes: it was previously
+ attempting to read in certificates from NULL pointers and ignoring
+ any errors: this is one reason why the cert and CRL reader seemed
+ to work. It doesn't check return codes from the default certificate
+ routines: these may well fail if the certificates aren't installed.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Code to support otherName option in GeneralName.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) First update to verify code. Change the verify utility
+ so it warns if it is passed a self signed certificate:
+ for consistency with the normal behaviour. X509_verify
+ has been modified to it will now verify a self signed
+ certificate if *exactly* the same certificate appears
+ in the store: it was previously impossible to trust a
+ single self signed certificate. This means that:
+ openssl verify ss.pem
+ now gives a warning about a self signed certificate but
+ openssl verify -CAfile ss.pem ss.pem
+ is OK.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) For servers, store verify_result in SSL_SESSION data structure
+ (and add it to external session representation).
+ This is needed when client certificate verifications fails,
+ but an application-provided verification callback (set by
+ SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback) allows accepting the session
+ anyway (i.e. leaves x509_store_ctx->error != X509_V_OK
+ but returns 1): When the session is reused, we have to set
+ ssl->verify_result to the appropriate error code to avoid
+ security holes.
+ [Bodo Moeller, problem pointed out by Lutz Jaenicke]
+
+ *) Fix a bug in the new PKCS#7 code: it didn't consider the
+ case in PKCS7_dataInit() where the signed PKCS7 structure
+ didn't contain any existing data because it was being created.
+ [Po-Cheng Chen <pocheng@nst.com.tw>, slightly modified by Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add a salt to the key derivation routines in enc.c. This
+ forms the first 8 bytes of the encrypted file. Also add a
+ -S option to allow a salt to be input on the command line.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function X509_cmp(). Oddly enough there wasn't a function
+ to compare two certificates. We do this by working out the SHA1
+ hash and comparing that. X509_cmp() will be needed by the trust
+ code.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Correctly increment the reference count in the SSL_SESSION pointer
+ returned from SSL_get_session().
+ [Geoff Thorpe <geoff@eu.c2.net>]
+
+ *) Fix for 'req': it was adding a null to request attributes.
+ Also change the X509_LOOKUP and X509_INFO code to handle
+ certificate auxiliary information.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for 40 and 64 bit RC2 and RC4 algorithms: document
+ the 'enc' command.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add the possibility to add extra information to the memory leak
+ detecting output, to form tracebacks, showing from where each
+ allocation was originated. Also updated sid code to be multi-
+ thread-safe.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Add options -text and -noout to pkcs7 utility and delete the
+ encryption options which never did anything. Update docs.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add options to some of the utilities to allow the pass phrase
+ to be included on either the command line (not recommended on
+ OSes like Unix) or read from the environment. Update the
+ manpages and fix a few bugs.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add a few manpages for some of the openssl commands.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix the -revoke option in ca. It was freeing up memory twice,
+ leaking and not finding already revoked certificates.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extensive changes to support certificate auxiliary information.
+ This involves the use of X509_CERT_AUX structure and X509_AUX
+ functions. An X509_AUX function such as PEM_read_X509_AUX()
+ can still read in a certificate file in the usual way but it
+ will also read in any additional "auxiliary information". By
+ doing things this way a fair degree of compatability can be
+ retained: existing certificates can have this information added
+ using the new 'x509' options.
+
+ Current auxiliary information includes an "alias" and some trust
+ settings. The trust settings will ultimately be used in enhanced
+ certificate chain verification routines: currently a certificate
+ can only be trusted if it is self signed and then it is trusted
+ for all purposes.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix assembler for Alpha (tested only on DEC OSF not Linux or *BSD). The
+ problem was that one of the replacement routines had not been working since
+ SSLeay releases. For now the offending routine has been replaced with
+ non-optimised assembler. Even so, this now gives around 95% performance
+ improvement for 1024 bit RSA signs.
+ [Mark Cox]
+
+ *) Hack to fix PKCS#7 decryption when used with some unorthodox RC2
+ handling. Most clients have the effective key size in bits equal to
+ the key length in bits: so a 40 bit RC2 key uses a 40 bit (5 byte) key.
+ A few however don't do this and instead use the size of the decrypted key
+ to determine the RC2 key length and the AlgorithmIdentifier to determine
+ the effective key length. In this case the effective key lenth can still
+ be 40 bits but the key length can be 168 bits for example. This is fixed
+ by manually forcing an RC2 key into the EVP_PKEY structure because the
+ EVP code can't currently handle unusual RC2 key sizes: it always assumes
+ the key length and effective key length are equal.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add a bunch of functions that should simplify the creation of
+ X509_NAME structures. Now you should be able to do:
+ X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, "CN", MBSTRING_ASC, "Steve", -1, -1, 0);
+ and have it automatically work out the correct field type and fill in
+ the structures. The more adventurous can try:
+ X509_NAME_add_entry_by_txt(nm, field, MBSTRING_UTF8, str, -1, -1, 0);
+ and it will (hopefully) work out the correct multibyte encoding.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Change the 'req' utility to use the new field handling and multibyte
+ copy routines. Before the DN field creation was handled in an ad hoc
+ way in req, ca, and x509 which was rather broken and didn't support
+ BMPStrings or UTF8Strings. Since some software doesn't implement
+ BMPStrings or UTF8Strings yet, they can be enabled using the config file
+ using the dirstring_type option. See the new comment in the default
+ openssl.cnf for more info.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Make crypto/rand/md_rand.c more robust:
+ - Assure unique random numbers after fork().
+ - Make sure that concurrent threads access the global counter and
+ md serializably so that we never lose entropy in them
+ or use exactly the same state in multiple threads.
+ Access to the large state is not always serializable because
+ the additional locking could be a performance killer, and
+ md should be large enough anyway.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) New file apps/app_rand.c with commonly needed functionality
+ for handling the random seed file.
+
+ Use the random seed file in some applications that previously did not:
+ ca,
+ dsaparam -genkey (which also ignored its `-rand' option),
+ s_client,
+ s_server,
+ x509 (when signing).
+ Except on systems with /dev/urandom, it is crucial to have a random
+ seed file at least for key creation, DSA signing, and for DH exchanges;
+ for RSA signatures we could do without one.
+
+ gendh and gendsa (unlike genrsa) used to read only the first byte
+ of each file listed in the `-rand' option. The function as previously
+ found in genrsa is now in app_rand.c and is used by all programs
+ that support `-rand'.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) In RAND_write_file, use mode 0600 for creating files;
+ don't just chmod when it may be too late.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Report an error from X509_STORE_load_locations
+ when X509_LOOKUP_load_file or X509_LOOKUP_add_dir failed.
+ [Bill Perry]
+
+ *) New function ASN1_mbstring_copy() this copies a string in either
+ ASCII, Unicode, Universal (4 bytes per character) or UTF8 format
+ into an ASN1_STRING type. A mask of permissible types is passed
+ and it chooses the "minimal" type to use or an error if not type
+ is suitable.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add function equivalents to the various macros in asn1.h. The old
+ macros are retained with an M_ prefix. Code inside the library can
+ use the M_ macros. External code (including the openssl utility)
+ should *NOT* in order to be "shared library friendly".
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add various functions that can check a certificate's extensions
+ to see if it usable for various purposes such as SSL client,
+ server or S/MIME and CAs of these types. This is currently
+ VERY EXPERIMENTAL but will ultimately be used for certificate chain
+ verification. Also added a -purpose flag to x509 utility to
+ print out all the purposes.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add a CRYPTO_EX_DATA to X509 certificate structure and associated
+ functions.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New X509V3_{X509,CRL,REVOKED}_get_d2i() functions. These will search
+ for, obtain and decode and extension and obtain its critical flag.
+ This allows all the necessary extension code to be handled in a
+ single function call.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) RC4 tune-up featuring 30-40% performance improvement on most RISC
+ platforms. See crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c for further details.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) New -noout option to asn1parse. This causes no output to be produced
+ its main use is when combined with -strparse and -out to extract data
+ from a file (which may not be in ASN.1 format).
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix for pkcs12 program. It was hashing an invalid certificate pointer
+ when producing the local key id.
+ [Richard Levitte <levitte@stacken.kth.se>]
+
+ *) New option -dhparam in s_server. This allows a DH parameter file to be
+ stated explicitly. If it is not stated then it tries the first server
+ certificate file. The previous behaviour hard coded the filename
+ "server.pem".
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add -pubin and -pubout options to the rsa and dsa commands. These allow
+ a public key to be input or output. For example:
+ openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout -out pubkey.pem
+ Also added necessary DSA public key functions to handle this.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix so PKCS7_dataVerify() doesn't crash if no certificates are contained
+ in the message. This was handled by allowing
+ X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() to tolerate a NULL passed to it.
+ [Steve Henson, reported by Sampo Kellomaki <sampo@mail.neuronio.pt>]
+
+ *) Fix for bug in d2i_ASN1_bytes(): other ASN1 functions add an extra null
+ to the end of the strings whereas this didn't. This would cause problems
+ if strings read with d2i_ASN1_bytes() were later modified.
+ [Steve Henson, reported by Arne Ansper <arne@ats.cyber.ee>]
+
+ *) Fix for base64 decode bug. When a base64 bio reads only one line of
+ data and it contains EOF it will end up returning an error. This is
+ caused by input 46 bytes long. The cause is due to the way base64
+ BIOs find the start of base64 encoded data. They do this by trying a
+ trial decode on each line until they find one that works. When they
+ do a flag is set and it starts again knowing it can pass all the
+ data directly through the decoder. Unfortunately it doesn't reset
+ the context it uses. This means that if EOF is reached an attempt
+ is made to pass two EOFs through the context and this causes the
+ resulting error. This can also cause other problems as well. As is
+ usual with these problems it takes *ages* to find and the fix is
+ trivial: move one line.
+ [Steve Henson, reported by ian@uns.ns.ac.yu (Ivan Nejgebauer) ]
+
+ *) Ugly workaround to get s_client and s_server working under Windows. The
+ old code wouldn't work because it needed to select() on sockets and the
+ tty (for keypresses and to see if data could be written). Win32 only
+ supports select() on sockets so we select() with a 1s timeout on the
+ sockets and then see if any characters are waiting to be read, if none
+ are present then we retry, we also assume we can always write data to
+ the tty. This isn't nice because the code then blocks until we've
+ received a complete line of data and it is effectively polling the
+ keyboard at 1s intervals: however it's quite a bit better than not
+ working at all :-) A dedicated Windows application might handle this
+ with an event loop for example.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Enhance RSA_METHOD structure. Now there are two extra methods, rsa_sign
+ and rsa_verify. When the RSA_FLAGS_SIGN_VER option is set these functions
+ will be called when RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() are used. This is useful
+ if rsa_pub_dec() and rsa_priv_enc() equivalents are not available.
+ For this to work properly RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt()
+ should *not* be used: RSA_sign() and RSA_verify() must be used instead.
+ This necessitated the support of an extra signature type NID_md5_sha1
+ for SSL signatures and modifications to the SSL library to use it instead
+ of calling RSA_public_decrypt() and RSA_private_encrypt().
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new -verify -CAfile and -CApath options to the crl program, these
+ will lookup a CRL issuers certificate and verify the signature in a
+ similar way to the verify program. Tidy up the crl program so it
+ no longer acesses structures directly. Make the ASN1 CRL parsing a bit
+ less strict. It will now permit CRL extensions even if it is not
+ a V2 CRL: this will allow it to tolerate some broken CRLs.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initialize all non-automatic variables each time one of the openssl
+ sub-programs is started (this is necessary as they may be started
+ multiple times from the "OpenSSL>" prompt).
+ [Lennart Bang, Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Preliminary compilation option RSA_NULL which disables RSA crypto without
+ removing all other RSA functionality (this is what NO_RSA does). This
+ is so (for example) those in the US can disable those operations covered
+ by the RSA patent while allowing storage and parsing of RSA keys and RSA
+ key generation.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Non-copying interface to BIO pairs.
+ (still largely untested)
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) New function ANS1_tag2str() to convert an ASN1 tag to a descriptive
+ ASCII string. This was handled independently in various places before.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New functions UTF8_getc() and UTF8_putc() that parse and generate
+ UTF8 strings a character at a time.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Use client_version from client hello to select the protocol
+ (s23_srvr.c) and for RSA client key exchange verification
+ (s3_srvr.c), as required by the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 specifications.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Add various utility functions to handle SPKACs, these were previously
+ handled by poking round in the structure internals. Added new function
+ NETSCAPE_SPKI_print() to print out SPKAC and a new utility 'spkac' to
+ print, verify and generate SPKACs. Based on an original idea from
+ Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@comune.modena.it> but extensively modified.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) RIPEMD160 is operational on all platforms and is back in 'make test'.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Allow the config file extension section to be overwritten on the
+ command line. Based on an original idea from Massimiliano Pala
+ <madwolf@comune.modena.it>. The new option is called -extensions
+ and can be applied to ca, req and x509. Also -reqexts to override
+ the request extensions in req and -crlexts to override the crl extensions
+ in ca.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new feature to the SPKAC handling in ca. Now you can include
+ the same field multiple times by preceding it by "XXXX." for example:
+ 1.OU="Unit name 1"
+ 2.OU="Unit name 2"
+ this is the same syntax as used in the req config file.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Allow certificate extensions to be added to certificate requests. These
+ are specified in a 'req_extensions' option of the req section of the
+ config file. They can be printed out with the -text option to req but
+ are otherwise ignored at present.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix a horrible bug in enc_read() in crypto/evp/bio_enc.c: if the first
+ data read consists of only the final block it would not decrypted because
+ EVP_CipherUpdate() would correctly report zero bytes had been decrypted.
+ A misplaced 'break' also meant the decrypted final block might not be
+ copied until the next read.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial support for DH_METHOD. Again based on RSA_METHOD. Also added
+ a few extra parameters to the DH structure: these will be useful if
+ for example we want the value of 'q' or implement X9.42 DH.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial support for DSA_METHOD. This is based on the RSA_METHOD and
+ provides hooks that allow the default DSA functions or functions on a
+ "per key" basis to be replaced. This allows hardware acceleration and
+ hardware key storage to be handled without major modification to the
+ library. Also added low level modexp hooks and CRYPTO_EX structure and
+ associated functions.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add a new flag to memory BIOs, BIO_FLAG_MEM_RDONLY. This marks the BIO
+ as "read only": it can't be written to and the buffer it points to will
+ not be freed. Reading from a read only BIO is much more efficient than
+ a normal memory BIO. This was added because there are several times when
+ an area of memory needs to be read from a BIO. The previous method was
+ to create a memory BIO and write the data to it, this results in two
+ copies of the data and an O(n^2) reading algorithm. There is a new
+ function BIO_new_mem_buf() which creates a read only memory BIO from
+ an area of memory. Also modified the PKCS#7 routines to use read only
+ memory BIOSs.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Bugfix: ssl23_get_client_hello did not work properly when called in
+ state SSL23_ST_SR_CLNT_HELLO_B, i.e. when the first 7 bytes of
+ a SSLv2-compatible client hello for SSLv3 or TLSv1 could be read,
+ but a retry condition occured while trying to read the rest.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) The PKCS7_ENC_CONTENT_new() function was setting the content type as
+ NID_pkcs7_encrypted by default: this was wrong since this should almost
+ always be NID_pkcs7_data. Also modified the PKCS7_set_type() to handle
+ the encrypted data type: this is a more sensible place to put it and it
+ allows the PKCS#12 code to be tidied up that duplicated this
+ functionality.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Changed obj_dat.pl script so it takes its input and output files on
+ the command line. This should avoid shell escape redirection problems
+ under Win32.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial support for certificate extension requests, these are included
+ in things like Xenroll certificate requests. Included functions to allow
+ extensions to be obtained and added.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) -crlf option to s_client and s_server for sending newlines as
+ CRLF (as required by many protocols).
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ Changes between 0.9.3a and 0.9.4 [09 Aug 1999]
+
+ *) Install libRSAglue.a when OpenSSL is built with RSAref.
+ [Ralf S. Engelschall]
+
+ *) A few more ``#ifndef NO_FP_API / #endif'' pairs for consistency.
+ [Andrija Antonijevic <TheAntony2@bigfoot.com>]
+
+ *) Fix -startdate and -enddate (which was missing) arguments to 'ca'
+ program.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function DSA_dup_DH, which duplicates DSA parameters/keys as
+ DH parameters/keys (q is lost during that conversion, but the resulting
+ DH parameters contain its length).
+
+ For 1024-bit p, DSA_generate_parameters followed by DSA_dup_DH is
+ much faster than DH_generate_parameters (which creates parameters
+ where p = 2*q + 1), and also the smaller q makes DH computations
+ much more efficient (160-bit exponentiation instead of 1024-bit
+ exponentiation); so this provides a convenient way to support DHE
+ ciphersuites in SSL/TLS servers (see ssl/ssltest.c). It is of
+ utter importance to use
+ SSL_CTX_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
+ or
+ SSL_set_options(s_ctx, SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE);
+ when such DH parameters are used, because otherwise small subgroup
+ attacks may become possible!
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Avoid memory leak in i2d_DHparams.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Allow the -k option to be used more than once in the enc program:
+ this allows the same encrypted message to be read by multiple recipients.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function OBJ_obj2txt(buf, buf_len, a, no_name), this converts
+ an ASN1_OBJECT to a text string. If the "no_name" parameter is set then
+ it will always use the numerical form of the OID, even if it has a short
+ or long name.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Added an extra RSA flag: RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY. Previously the rsa_mod_exp
+ method only got called if p,q,dmp1,dmq1,iqmp components were present,
+ otherwise bn_mod_exp was called. In the case of hardware keys for example
+ no private key components need be present and it might store extra data
+ in the RSA structure, which cannot be accessed from bn_mod_exp.
+ By setting RSA_FLAG_EXT_PKEY rsa_mod_exp will always be called for
+ private key operations.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Added support for SPARC Linux.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) pem_password_cb function type incompatibly changed from
+ typedef int pem_password_cb(char *buf, int size, int rwflag);
+ to
+ ....(char *buf, int size, int rwflag, void *userdata);
+ so that applications can pass data to their callbacks:
+ The PEM[_ASN1]_{read,write}... functions and macros now take an
+ additional void * argument, which is just handed through whenever
+ the password callback is called.
+ [Damien Miller <dmiller@ilogic.com.au>; tiny changes by Bodo Moeller]
+
+ New function SSL_CTX_set_default_passwd_cb_userdata.
+
+ Compatibility note: As many C implementations push function arguments
+ onto the stack in reverse order, the new library version is likely to
+ interoperate with programs that have been compiled with the old
+ pem_password_cb definition (PEM_whatever takes some data that
+ happens to be on the stack as its last argument, and the callback
+ just ignores this garbage); but there is no guarantee whatsoever that
+ this will work.
+
+ *) The -DPLATFORM="\"$(PLATFORM)\"" definition and the similar -DCFLAGS=...
+ (both in crypto/Makefile.ssl for use by crypto/cversion.c) caused
+ problems not only on Windows, but also on some Unix platforms.
+ To avoid problematic command lines, these definitions are now in an
+ auto-generated file crypto/buildinf.h (created by crypto/Makefile.ssl
+ for standard "make" builds, by util/mk1mf.pl for "mk1mf" builds).
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) MIPS III/IV assembler module is reimplemented.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
*) More DES library cleanups: remove references to srand/rand and
delete an unused file.
*) Introduce "mode" for SSL structures (with defaults in SSL_CTX),
which largely parallels "options", but is for changing API behaviour,
whereas "options" are about protocol behaviour.
- Initial "mode" flags (still experimental) are:
+ Initial "mode" flags are:
SSL_MODE_ENABLE_PARTIAL_WRITE Allow SSL_write to report success when
a single record has been written.
