- ofb) including desx in cbc mode, a fast crypt(3), and
- routines to read passwords from the keyboard.

- PATENTS
- -------
-
- Various companies hold various patents for various algorithms in various
- locations around the world. _YOU_ are responsible for ensuring that your use
- of any algorithms is legal by checking if there are any patents in your
- country. The file contains some of the patents that we know about or are
- rumored to exist. This is not a definitive list.
-
- RSA Security holds software patents on the RC5 algorithm. If you
- intend to use this cipher, you must contact RSA Security for
- licensing conditions. Their web page is http://www.rsasecurity.com/.
-
- RC4 is a trademark of RSA Security, so use of this label should perhaps
- only be used with RSA Security's permission.
-
- The IDEA algorithm is patented by Ascom in Austria, France, Germany, Italy,
- Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and the USA. They
- should be contacted if that algorithm is to be used; their web page is

SUPPORT

If you have any problems with OpenSSL then please take the following steps
first:
- Problem Description (steps that will reproduce the problem, if known)
- Stack Traceback (if the application dumps core)
- Report the bug to the OpenSSL project via the Request Tracker
- (http://www.openssl.org/support/rt2.html) by mail to:
+ Email the report to:
- openssl-bugs@openssl.org
+ rt@openssl.org
- Note that mail to openssl-bugs@openssl.org is recorded in the publicly
- readable request tracker database and is forwarded to a public
- mailing list. Confidential mail may be sent to openssl-security@openssl.org
- (PGP key available from the key servers).
+ In order to avoid spam, this is a moderated mailing list, and it might
+ take a day for the ticket to show up. (We also scan posts to make sure
+ that security disclosures aren't publically posted by mistake.) Mail to
+ this address is recorded in the public RT (request tracker) database (see
+ https://www.openssl.org/support/rt.html for details) and also forwarded
+ the public openssl-dev mailing list. Confidential mail may be sent to
+ openssl-security@openssl.org (PGP key available from the key servers).
+
+ Please do NOT use this for general assistance or support queries.
+ Just because something doesn't work the way you expect does not mean it
+ is necessarily a bug in OpenSSL.
+
+ You can also make GitHub pull requests. If you do this, please also send
+ mail to rt@openssl.org with a link to the PR so that we can more easily
+ keep track of it.
HOW TO CONTRIBUTE TO OpenSSL
----------------------------
- Development is coordinated on the openssl-dev mailing list (see
- http://www.openssl.org for information on subscribing). If you
- would like to submit a patch, send it to openssl-dev@openssl.org with
- the string "[PATCH]" in the subject. Please be sure to include a
- textual explanation of what your patch does.
-
- Note: For legal reasons, contributions from the US can be accepted only
- if a TSU notification and a copy of the patch are sent to crypt@bis.doc.gov
- (formerly BXA) with a copy to the ENC Encryption Request Coordinator;
- please take some time to look at
- http://www.bis.doc.gov/Encryption/PubAvailEncSourceCodeNofify.html [sic]
- and
- http://w3.access.gpo.gov/bis/ear/pdf/740.pdf (EAR Section 740.13(e))
- for the details. If "your encryption source code is too large to serve as
- an email attachment", they are glad to receive it by fax instead; hope you
- have a cheap long-distance plan.
-
- Our preferred format for changes is "diff -u" output. You might
- generate it like this:
-
- # cd openssl-work
- # [your changes]
- # ./Configure dist; make clean
- # cd ..
- # diff -ur openssl-orig openssl-work > mydiffs.patch
