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 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 numberical 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 implmeneted
+ outside the validated module in the FIPS capable OpenSSL.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Minor change to DRBG entropy callback semantics. In some cases
+ there is no mutiple 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)]
+
+ *) 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
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]
whose return value is often ignored.
[Steve Henson]
- Changes between 1.0.0 and 1.0.0a [xx XXX xxxx]
-
+ Changes between 1.0.0e and 1.0.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Session-handling fixes:
+ - Fix handling of connections that are resuming with a session ID,
+ but also support Session Tickets.
+ - Fix a bug that suppressed issuing of a new ticket if the client
+ presented a ticket with an expired session.
+ - Try to set the ticket lifetime hint to something reasonable.
+ - Make tickets shorter by excluding irrelevant information.
+ - On the client side, don't ignore renewed tickets.
+ [Adam Langley, Bodo Moeller (Google)]
+
+ *) Fix PSK session representation.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Add RC4-MD5 and AESNI-SHA1 "stitched" implementations.
+
+ This work was sponsored by Intel.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) Add GCM support to TLS library. Some custom code is needed to split
+ the IV between the fixed (from PRF) and explicit (from TLS record)
+ portions. This adds all GCM ciphersuites supported by RFC5288 and
+ RFC5289. Generalise some AES* cipherstrings to inlclude GCM and
+ add a special AESGCM string for GCM only.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Expand range of ctrls for AES GCM. Permit setting invocation
+ field on decrypt and retrieval of invocation field only on encrypt.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add HMAC ECC ciphersuites from RFC5289. Include SHA384 PRF support.
+ As required by RFC5289 these ciphersuites cannot be used if for
+ versions of TLS earlier than 1.2.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) For FIPS capable OpenSSL interpret a NULL default public key method
+ as unset and return the appopriate default but do *not* set the default.
+ This means we can return the appopriate method in applications that
+ swicth between FIPS and non-FIPS modes.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Redirect HMAC and CMAC operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. If an
+ ENGINE is used then we cannot handle that in the FIPS module so we
+ keep original code iff non-FIPS operations are allowed.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add -attime option to openssl verify.
+ [Peter Eckersley <pde@eff.org> and Ben Laurie]
+
+ *) Redirect DSA and DH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Redirect ECDSA and ECDH operations to FIPS module in FIPS mode. Also use
+ FIPS EC methods unconditionally for now.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) New build option no-ec2m to disable characteristic 2 code.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Backport libcrypto audit of return value checking from 1.1.0-dev; not
+ all cases can be covered as some introduce binary incompatibilities.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Redirect RSA operations to FIPS module including keygen,
+ encrypt, decrypt, sign and verify. Block use of non FIPS RSA methods.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add similar low level API blocking to ciphers.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Low level digest APIs are not approved in FIPS mode: any attempt
+ to use these will cause a fatal error. Applications that *really* want
+ to use them can use the private_* version instead.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Redirect cipher operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Redirect digest operations to FIPS module for FIPS builds.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Update build system to add "fips" flag which will link in fipscanister.o
+ for static and shared library builds embedding a signature if needed.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Output TLS supported curves in preference order instead of numerical
+ order. This is currently hardcoded for the highest order curves first.
+ This should be configurable so applications can judge speed vs strength.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add TLS v1.2 server support for client authentication.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add support for FIPS mode in ssl library: disable SSLv3, non-FIPS ciphers
+ and enable MD5.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) 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
+ format in client key exchange. Relax some ECC signing restrictions for
+ TLS v1.2 as indicated in RFC5246.
+ [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]
+
+ *) New option OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN. If an application can be compiled
+ with this defined it will not be affected by any changes to ssl internal
+ structures. Add several utility functions to allow openssl application
+ to work with OPENSSL_NO_SSL_INTERN defined.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add SRP support.
+ [Tom Wu <tjw@cs.stanford.edu> and Ben Laurie]
+
+ *) 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 1.0.0d and 1.0.0e [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Fix bug where CRLs with nextUpdate in the past are sometimes accepted
+ by initialising X509_STORE_CTX properly. (CVE-2011-3207)
+ [Kaspar Brand <ossl@velox.ch>]
+
+ *) Fix SSL memory handling for (EC)DH ciphersuites, in particular
+ for multi-threaded use of ECDH. (CVE-2011-3210)
+ [Adam Langley (Google)]
+
+ *) Fix x509_name_ex_d2i memory leak on bad inputs.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Remove hard coded ecdsaWithSHA1 signature tests in ssl code and check
+ signature public key algorithm by using OID xref utilities instead.
+ Before this you could only use some ECC ciphersuites with SHA1 only.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add protection against ECDSA timing attacks as mentioned in the paper
+ by Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri, see:
+
+ http://eprint.iacr.org/2011/232.pdf
+
+ [Billy Bob Brumley and Nicola Tuveri]
+
+ 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]
+
*) 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
*) Change 'Configure' script to enable Camellia by default.

+ [Steve Henson]
+

+ [Emilia Käsper <emilia.kasper@esat.kuleuven.be> (Google)]
