AVAILABLE PATCHES
+ o
+
IN PROGRESS
o Steve is currently working on (in no particular order):
Private key, certificate and CRL API and implementation.
Developing and bugfixing PKCS#7 (S/MIME code).
Various X509 issues: character sets, certificate request extensions.
- o Geoff and Richard are currently working on:
- ENGINE (the new code that gives hardware support among others).
o Richard is currently working on:
- UTIL (a new set of library functions to support some higher level
- functionality that is currently missing).
- Shared library support for VMS.
- OCSP
- Kerberos 5 authentication
Constification
+ Attribute Certificate support
+ Certificate Pair support
+ Storage Engines (primarly an LDAP storage engine)
+ Certificate chain validation with full RFC 3280 compatibility
NEEDS PATCH
- o apps/ca.c: "Sign the certificate?" - "n" creates empty certificate file
+ o 0.9.8-dev: COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT do not
+ handle ECCdraft cipher suites correctly.
- o OpenSSL_0_9_6-stable:
- #include <openssl/e_os.h> in exported header files is illegal since
- e_os.h is suitable only for library-internal use.
+ o apps/ca.c: "Sign the certificate?" - "n" creates empty certificate file
- o Whenever strncpy is used, make sure the resulting string is NULL-terminated
- or an error is reported
+ o "OpenSSL STATUS" is never up-to-date.
OPEN ISSUES
- o crypto/ex_data.c is not really thread-safe and so must be used
- with care (e.g., extra locking where necessary, or don't call
- CRYPTO_get_ex_new_index once multiple threads exist).
- The current API is not suitable for everything that it pretends
- to offer.
-
o The Makefile hierarchy and build mechanism is still not a round thing:
1. The config vs. Configure scripts
which apparently is not flexible enough to generate
libcrypto)
+ WISHES
- o The perl/ stuff needs a major overhaul. Currently it's
- totally obsolete. Either we clean it up and enhance it to be up-to-date
- with the C code or we also could replace it with the really nice
- Net::SSLeay package we can find under
- http://www.neuronio.pt/SSLeay.pm.html. Ralf uses this package for a
- longer time and it works fine and is a nice Perl module. Best would be
- to convince the author to work for the OpenSSL project and create a
- Net::OpenSSL or Crypt::OpenSSL package out of it and maintains it for
- us.
+ o Add variants of DH_generate_parameters() and BN_generate_prime() [etc?]
+ where the callback function can request that the function be aborted.
+ [Gregory Stark <ghstark@pobox.com>, <rayyang2000@yahoo.com>]
- Status: Ralf thinks we should both contact the author of Net::SSLeay
- and look how much effort it is to bring Eric's perl/ stuff up
- to date.
- Paul +1
+ o SRP in TLS.
+ [wished by:
+ Dj <derek@yo.net>, Tom Wu <tom@arcot.com>,
+ Tom Holroyd <tomh@po.crl.go.jp>]
- WISHES
+ See http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-tls-srp-00.txt
+ as well as http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~tjw/srp/.
- o
+ Tom Holroyd tells us there is a SRP patch for OpenSSH at
+ http://members.tripod.com/professor_tom/archives/, that could
+ be useful.
