OpenSSL CHANGES
_______________
- Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ Changes between 1.0.x and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) New functions to set lookup_crls function 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 to s_client, s_server and x509 utilities
+ 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 distint 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: returing
+ 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
certificates.
[Steve Henson]
- *) RFC 5878 support.
- [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
-
- *) 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]
-
- *) 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]
-
*) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
failures.
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 perfomance) 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.

Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
*) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
*) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.

*) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
approved.

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
the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
[Steve Henson]
- *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
- STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
- [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 pemitted
