OpenSSL CHANGES
_______________
- Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ Changes between 1.0.x and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
- *) Make generated asm have non-executable stack.
- [Contributed by Google <agl@google.com>]
+ *) Add EVP support for key wrapping algorithms, to avoid problems with
+ existing code the flag EVP_CIPHER_CTX_WRAP_ALLOW has to be set in
+ the EVP_CIPHER_CTX or an error is returned. Add AES and DES3 wrap
+ algorithms and include tests cases.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extend CMS code to support RSA-PSS signatures and RSA-OAEP for
+ enveloped data.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extended RSA OAEP support via EVP_PKEY API. Options to specify digest,
+ MGF1 digest and OAEP label.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add callbacks for arbitrary TLS extensions.
+ [Trevor Perrin <trevp@trevp.net> and Ben Laurie]
+
+ *) Support for DTLS 1.2. This adds two sets of DTLS methods: DTLS_*_method()
+ supports both DTLS 1.2 and 1.0 and should use whatever version the peer
+ supports and DTLSv1_2_*_method() which supports DTLS 1.2 only.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Make openssl verify return errors.
+ [Chris Palmer <palmer@google.com> and Ben Laurie]
+
+ *) Fix OCSP checking.
+ [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com> and Ben Laurie]
+
+ *) New option -crl_download in several openssl utilities to download CRLs
+ from CRLDP extension in certificates.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Integrate hostname, email address and IP address checking with certificate
+ verification. New verify options supporting checking in openssl utility.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function X509_CRL_diff to generate a delta CRL from the difference
+ of two full CRLs. Add support to "crl" utility.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New options -CRL and -CRLform for s_client and s_server for CRLs.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extend OCSP I/O functions so they can be used for simple general purpose
+ HTTP as well as OCSP. New wrapper function which can be used to download
+ CRLs using the OCSP API.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New functions to set lookup_crls callback and to retrieve
+ X509_STORE from X509_STORE_CTX.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New ctrl and macro to retrieve supported points extensions.
+ Print out extension in s_server and s_client.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function ASN1_TIME_diff to calculate the difference between two
+ ASN1_TIME structures or one structure and the current time.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fixes and wildcard matching support to hostname and email checking
+ functions. Add manual page.
+ [Florian Weimer (Red Hat Product Security Team)]
+
+ *) New experimental SSL_CONF* functions. These provide a common framework
+ for application configuration using configuration files or command lines.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New functions to check a hostname email or IP address against a
+ certificate. Add options x509 utility to print results of checks against
+ a certificate.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add -rev test option to s_server to just reverse order of characters
+ received by client and send back to server. Also prints an abbreviated
+ summary of the connection parameters.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New option -brief for s_client and s_server to print out a brief summary
+ of connection parameters.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add functions to retrieve and manipulate the raw cipherlist sent by a
+ client to OpenSSL.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
+ of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
+ only use Suite B curves. The Suite B modes can be set by using the
+ strings "SUITEB128", "SUITEB192" or "SUITEB128ONLY" for the cipherstring.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New chain verification flags for Suite B levels of security. Check
+ algorithms are acceptable when flags are set in X509_verify_cert.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Make tls1_check_chain return a set of flags indicating checks passed
+ by a certificate chain. Add additional tests to handle client
+ certificates: checks for matching certificate type and issuer name
+ comparison.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) If an attempt is made to use a signature algorithm not in the peer
+ preference list abort the handshake. If client has no suitable
+ signature algorithms in response to a certificate request do not
+ use the certificate.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) If server EC tmp key is not in client preference list abort handshake.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for certificate stores in CERT structure. This makes it
+ possible to have different stores per SSL structure or one store in
+ the parent SSL_CTX. Include distinct stores for certificate chain
+ verification and chain building. New ctrl SSL_CTRL_BUILD_CERT_CHAIN
+ to build and store a certificate chain in CERT structure: returning
+ an error if the chain cannot be built: this will allow applications
+ to test if a chain is correctly configured.
+
+ Note: if the CERT based stores are not set then the parent SSL_CTX
+ store is used to retain compatibility with existing behaviour.
+
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function ssl_set_client_disabled to set a ciphersuite disabled
+ mask based on the current session, check mask when sending client
+ hello and checking the requested ciphersuite.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New ctrls to retrieve and set certificate types in a certificate
+ request message. Print out received values in s_client. If certificate
+ types is not set with custom values set sensible values based on
+ supported signature algorithms.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Support for distinct client and server supported signature algorithms.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add certificate callback. If set this is called whenever a certificate
+ is required by client or server. An application can decide which
+ certificate chain to present based on arbitrary criteria: for example
+ supported signature algorithms. Add very simple example to s_server.
+ This fixes many of the problems and restrictions of the existing client
+ certificate callback: for example you can now clear an existing
+ certificate and specify the whole chain.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new "valid_flags" field to CERT_PKEY structure which determines what
+ the certificate can be used for (if anything). Set valid_flags field
+ in new tls1_check_chain function. Simplify ssl_set_cert_masks which used
+ to have similar checks in it.
+
+ Add new "cert_flags" field to CERT structure and include a "strict mode".
+ This enforces some TLS certificate requirements (such as only permitting
+ certificate signature algorithms contained in the supported algorithms
+ extension) which some implementations ignore: this option should be used
+ with caution as it could cause interoperability issues.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Update and tidy signature algorithm extension processing. Work out
+ shared signature algorithms based on preferences and peer algorithms
+ and print them out in s_client and s_server. Abort handshake if no
+ shared signature algorithms.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new functions to allow customised supported signature algorithms
+ for SSL and SSL_CTX structures. Add options to s_client and s_server
+ to support them.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function SSL_certs_clear() to delete all references to certificates
+ from an SSL structure. Before this once a certificate had been added
+ it couldn't be removed.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial SSL tracing code. This parses out SSL/TLS records using the
+ message callback and prints the results. Needs compile time option
+ "enable-ssl-trace". New options to s_client and s_server to enable
+ tracing.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New functions to retrieve certificate signature and signature
+ OID NID.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Print out deprecated issuer and subject unique ID fields in
+ certificates.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
+ test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
+ failures.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add FIPS_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa}_{sign,verify} functions which digest and
+ sign or verify all in one operation.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add fips_algvs: a multicall fips utility incorporaing all the algorithm
+ test programs and fips_test_suite. Includes functionality to parse
+ the minimal script output of fipsalgest.pl directly.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add authorisation parameter to FIPS_module_mode_set().
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add FIPS selftest for ECDH algorithm using P-224 and B-233 curves.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Use separate DRBG fields for internal and external flags. New function
+ FIPS_drbg_health_check() to perform on demand health checking. Add
+ generation tests to fips_test_suite with reduced health check interval to
+ demonstrate periodic health checking. Add "nodh" option to
+ fips_test_suite to skip very slow DH test.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function FIPS_get_cipherbynid() to lookup FIPS supported ciphers
+ based on NID.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) More extensive health check for DRBG checking many more failure modes.
+ New function FIPS_selftest_drbg_all() to handle every possible DRBG
+ combination: call this in fips_test_suite.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for Dual EC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test
+ and POST to handle Dual EC cases.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for canonical generation of DSA parameter 'g'. See
+ FIPS 186-3 A.2.3.
+
+ *) Add support for HMAC DRBG from SP800-90. Update DRBG algorithm test and
+ POST to handle HMAC cases.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add functions FIPS_module_version() and FIPS_module_version_text()
+ to return numerical and string versions of the FIPS module number.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Rename FIPS_mode_set and FIPS_mode to FIPS_module_mode_set and
+ FIPS_module_mode. FIPS_mode and FIPS_mode_set will be implemented
+ outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
+ there is no multiple of the block length between min_len and
+ max_len. Allow the callback to return more than max_len bytes
+ of entropy but discard any extra: it is the callback's responsibility
+ to ensure that the extra data discarded does not impact the
+ requested amount of entropy.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add PRNG security strength checks to RSA, DSA and ECDSA using
+ information in FIPS186-3, SP800-57 and SP800-131A.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) CCM support via EVP. Interface is very similar to GCM case except we
+ must supply all data in one chunk (i.e. no update, final) and the
+ message length must be supplied if AAD is used. Add algorithm test
+ support.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial version of POST overhaul. Add POST callback to allow the status
+ of POST to be monitored and/or failures induced. Modify fips_test_suite
+ to use callback. Always run all selftests even if one fails.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) XTS support including algorithm test driver in the fips_gcmtest program.
+ Note: this does increase the maximum key length from 32 to 64 bytes but
+ there should be no binary compatibility issues as existing applications
+ will never use XTS mode.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extensive reorganisation of FIPS PRNG behaviour. Remove all dependencies
+ to OpenSSL RAND code and replace with a tiny FIPS RAND API which also
+ performs algorithm blocking for unapproved PRNG types. Also do not
+ set PRNG type in FIPS_mode_set(): leave this to the application.
+ Add default OpenSSL DRBG handling: sets up FIPS PRNG and seeds with
+ the standard OpenSSL PRNG: set additional data to a date time vector.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Rename old X9.31 PRNG functions of the form FIPS_rand* to FIPS_x931*.
+ This shouldn't present any incompatibility problems because applications
+ shouldn't be using these directly and any that are will need to rethink
+ anyway as the X9.31 PRNG is now deprecated by FIPS 140-2
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extensive self tests and health checking required by SP800-90 DRBG.
+ Remove strength parameter from FIPS_drbg_instantiate and always
+ instantiate at maximum supported strength.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add ECDH code to fips module and fips_ecdhvs for primitives only testing.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New algorithm test program fips_dhvs to handle DH primitives only testing.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New function DH_compute_key_padded() to compute a DH key and pad with
+ leading zeroes if needed: this complies with SP800-56A et al.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial implementation of SP800-90 DRBGs for Hash and CTR. Not used by
+ anything, incomplete, subject to change and largely untested at present.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Modify fipscanisteronly build option to only build the necessary object
+ files by filtering FIPS_EX_OBJ through a perl script in crypto/Makefile.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add experimental option FIPSSYMS to give all symbols in
+ fipscanister.o and FIPS or fips prefix. This will avoid
+ conflicts with future versions of OpenSSL. Add perl script
+ util/fipsas.pl to preprocess assembly language source files
+ and rename any affected symbols.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add selftest checks and algorithm block of non-fips algorithms in
+ FIPS mode. Remove DES2 from selftests.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add ECDSA code to fips module. Add tiny fips_ecdsa_check to just
+ return internal method without any ENGINE dependencies. Add new
+ tiny fips sign and verify functions.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) 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)]
*) 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]
+ *) Add -trusted_first option which attempts to find certificates in the
+ trusted store even if an untrusted chain is also supplied.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial experimental support for explicitly trusted non-root CAs.
+ OpenSSL still tries to build a complete chain to a root but if an
+ intermediate CA has a trust setting included that is used. The first
+ setting is used: whether to trust or reject.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New -verify_name option in command line utilities to set verification
+ parameters by name.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial CMAC implementation. WARNING: EXPERIMENTAL, API MAY CHANGE.
+ Add CMAC pkey methods.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Experimental regnegotiation in s_server -www mode. If the client
+ browses /reneg connection is renegotiated. If /renegcert it is
+ renegotiated requesting a certificate.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add an "external" session cache for debugging purposes to s_server. This
+ should help trace issues which normally are only apparent in deployed
+ multi-process servers.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Extensive audit of libcrypto with DEBUG_UNUSED. Fix many cases where
+ return value is ignored. NB. The functions RAND_add(), RAND_seed(),
+ BIO_set_cipher() and some obscure PEM functions were changed so they
+ can now return an error. The RAND changes required a change to the
+ RAND_METHOD structure.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New macro __owur for "OpenSSL Warn Unused Result". This makes use of
+ a gcc attribute to warn if the result of a function is ignored. This
+ is enable if DEBUG_UNUSED is set. Add to several functions in evp.h
+ whose return value is often ignored.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) MIPS assembly pack updates: support for MIPS32r2 and SmartMIPS ASE,
+ platform support for Linux and Android.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Call OCSP Stapling callback after ciphersuite has been chosen, so
+ the right response is stapled. Also change current certificate to
+ the certificate actually sent.
+ See http://rt.openssl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2836.
+ [Rob Stradling <rob.stradling@comodo.com>]
+
+ *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) RFC 5878 support.
+ [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
+
+ *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
+ When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
+ when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
+ This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
+ (often lower performance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
+ PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
+ the new parameter format automatically.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
+ to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
+ the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
+ hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
+ SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
+ support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
+ static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
+ New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
+ Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
+ to set list of supported curves.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
+ supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
+ to print out received values.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
+ between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
+ ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
+ chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
+ server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
+ certificates.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Don't use TLS 1.0 record version number in initial client hello
+ if renegotiating.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.1b and 1.0.1c [10 May 2012]
+
+ *) Sanity check record length before skipping explicit IV in TLS
+ 1.2, 1.1 and DTLS to avoid DoS attack.
+
+ Thanks to Codenomicon for discovering this issue using Fuzz-o-Matic
+ fuzzing as a service testing platform.
+ (CVE-2012-2333)
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
+ Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
+ approved.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
+
+ *) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
+ 1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
+ mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
+ SSL_OP_ALL would also set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, unintentionally disabling
+ TLS 1.1 also. Fix this by changing the value of SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to
+ 0x10000000L Any application which was previously compiled against
+ OpenSSL 1.0.1 or 1.0.1a headers and which cares about SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1
+ will need to be recompiled as a result. Letting be results in
+ inability to disable specifically TLS 1.1 and in client context,
+ in unlike event, limit maximum offered version to TLS 1.0 [see below].
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) In order to ensure interoperability SSL_OP_NO_protocolX does not
+ disable just protocol X, but all protocols above X *if* there are
+ protocols *below* X still enabled. In more practical terms it means
+ that if application wants to disable TLS1.0 in favor of TLS1.1 and
+ above, it's not sufficient to pass SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, one has to pass
+ SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3|SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2. This applies to
+ client side.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.1a [19 Apr 2012]
+
+ *) Check for potentially exploitable overflows in asn1_d2i_read_bio
+ BUF_mem_grow and BUF_mem_grow_clean. Refuse attempts to shrink buffer
+ in CRYPTO_realloc_clean.
+
+ Thanks to Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team, for discovering this
+ issue and to Adam Langley <agl@chromium.org> for fixing it.
+ (CVE-2012-2110)
+ [Adam Langley (Google), Tavis Ormandy, Google Security Team]
+
+ *) Don't allow TLS 1.2 SHA-256 ciphersuites in TLS 1.0, 1.1 connections.
+ [Adam Langley]
+
+ *) Workarounds for some broken servers that "hang" if a client hello
+ record length exceeds 255 bytes:
+
+ 1. Do not use record version number > TLS 1.0 in initial client
+ hello: some (but not all) hanging servers will now work.
+ 2. If we set OPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH this will truncate
+ the number of ciphers sent in the client hello. This should be
+ set to an even number, such as 50, for example by passing:
+ -DOPENSSL_MAX_TLS1_2_CIPHER_LENGTH=50 to config or Configure.
+ Most broken servers should now work.
+ 3. If all else fails setting OPENSSL_NO_TLS1_2_CLIENT will disable
+ TLS 1.2 client support entirely.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Fix SEGV in Vector Permutation AES module observed in OpenSSH.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ Changes between 1.0.0h and 1.0.1 [14 Mar 2012]
+
+ *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
+ STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) The format used for MDC2 RSA signatures is inconsistent between EVP
+ and the RSA_sign/RSA_verify functions. This was made more apparent when
+ OpenSSL used RSA_sign/RSA_verify for some RSA signatures in particular
+ those which went through EVP_PKEY_METHOD in 1.0.0 and later. Detect
+ the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
+ support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
+ encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum permitted
+ client version in client hello, this should keep such servers happy
+ and still work with previous versions of OpenSSL.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for TLS/DTLS heartbeats.
+ [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
+
+ *) Add support for SCTP.
+ [Robin Seggelmann <seggelmann@fh-muenster.de>]
+
+ *) Improved PRNG seeding for VOS.
+ [Paul Green <Paul.Green@stratus.com>]
+
+ *) Extensive assembler packs updates, most notably:
+
+ - x86[_64]: AES-NI, PCLMULQDQ, RDRAND support;
+ - x86[_64]: SSSE3 support (SHA1, vector-permutation AES);
+ - x86_64: bit-sliced AES implementation;
+ - ARM: NEON support, contemporary platforms optimizations;
+ - s390x: z196 support;
+ - *: GHASH and GF(2^m) multiplication implementations;
+
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Make TLS-SRP code conformant with RFC 5054 API cleanup
+ (removal of unnecessary code)
+ [Peter Sylvester <peter.sylvester@edelweb.fr>]
+
+ *) Add TLS key material exporter from RFC 5705.
+ [Eric Rescorla]
+
+ *) Add DTLS-SRTP negotiation from RFC 5764.
+ [Eric Rescorla]
+
+ *) 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]
+
+ *) Add optional 64-bit optimized implementations of elliptic curves NIST-P224,
+ NIST-P256, NIST-P521, with constant-time single point multiplication on
+ typical inputs. Compiler support for the nonstandard type __uint128_t is
+ required to use this (present in gcc 4.4 and later, for 64-bit builds).
+ Code made available under Apache License version 2.0.
+
+ Specify "enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128" on the Configure (or config) command
+ line to include this in your build of OpenSSL, and run "make depend" (or
+ "make update"). This enables the following EC_METHODs:

+
+ *) Functions FIPS_mode_set() and FIPS_mode() which call the underlying
+ FIPS modules versions.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add TLS v1.2 client side support for client authentication. Keep cache
+ of handshake records longer as we don't know the hash algorithm to use
+ until after the certificate request message is received.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial TLS v1.2 client support. Add a default signature algorithms
+ extension including all the algorithms we support. Parse new signature

+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add server support for TLS v1.2 signature algorithms extension. Switch
+ to new signature format when needed using client digest preference.
+ All server ciphersuites should now work correctly in TLS v1.2. No client
+ support yet and no support for client certificates.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Initial TLS v1.2 support. Add new SHA256 digest to ssl code, switch
+ to SHA256 for PRF when using TLS v1.2 and later. Add new SHA256 based
+ ciphersuites. At present only RSA key exchange ciphersuites work with
+ TLS v1.2. Add new option for TLS v1.2 replacing the old and obsolete
+ SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK flags with SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2. New TLSv1.2 methods
+ and version checking.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
