This causes the new + ASN1 modules to export functions returning ASN1_ITEM pointers + instead of the ASN1_ITEM structures themselves. This adds several + new macros which allow the underlying ASN1 function/structure to + be accessed transparently. As a result code should not use ASN1_ITEM + references directly (such as &X509_it) but instead use the relevant + macros (such as ASN1_ITEM_rptr(X509)). This option is to allow + use of the new ASN1 code on platforms where exporting structures + is problematical (for example in shared libraries) but exporting + functions returning pointers to structures is not. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add support for overriding the generation of SSL/TLS session IDs. + These callbacks can be registered either in an SSL_CTX or per SSL. + The purpose of this is to allow applications to control, if they wish, + the arbitrary values chosen for use as session IDs, particularly as it + can be useful for session caching in multiple-server environments. A + command-line switch for testing this (and any client code that wishes + to use such a feature) has been added to "s_server". + [Geoff Thorpe, Lutz Jaenicke] + + *) Modify mkdef.pl to recognise and parse prprocessor conditionals + of the form '#if defined(...) || defined(...) || ...' and + '#if !defined(...) && !defined(...) && ...'. This also avoids + the growing number of special cases it was previously handling. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Don't use getenv in library functions when run as setuid/setgid. + New function OPENSSL_issetugid(). + [Ulf Moeller] + + *) Make all configuration macros available for application by making + sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting + with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making + sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with + opensslconf.h. + Additionally, it is now possible to define configuration/platform- + specific names (called "system identities"). In the C code, these + are prefixed with "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_". e_os2.h will create another + macro with the name beginning with "OPENSSL_SYS_", which is determined + from "OPENSSL_SYSNAME_*" or compiler-specific macros depending on + what is available. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) New option -set_serial to 'req' and 'x509' this allows the serial + number to use to be specified on the command line. Previously self + signed certificates were hard coded with serial number 0 and the + CA options of 'x509' had to use a serial number in a file which was + auto incremented. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Avoid false positives in memory leak detection code (crypto/mem_dbg.c) + due to incorrect handling of multi-threading: + + 1. Fix timing glitch in the MemCheck_off() portion of CRYPTO_mem_ctrl(). + + 2. Fix logical glitch in is_MemCheck_on() aka CRYPTO_is_mem_check_on(). + + 3. Count how many times MemCheck_off() has been called so that + nested use can be treated correctly. This also avoids + inband-signalling in the previous code (which relied on the + assumption that thread ID 0 is impossible). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) New options to 'ca' utility to support V2 CRL entry extensions. + Currently CRL reason, invalidity date and hold instruction are + supported. Add new CRL extensions to V3 code and some new objects. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add "-rand" option also to s_client and s_server. + [Lutz Jaenicke] + + *) New function EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_padding() this is used to + disable standard block padding (aka PKCS#5 padding) in the EVP + API, which was previously mandatory. This means that the data is + not padded in any way and so the total length much be a multiple + of the block size, otherwise an error occurs. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Initial (incomplete) OCSP SSL support. + [Steve Henson] + *) Fix CPU detection on Irix 6.x.

Forsberg" ] @@ -58,6 +140,9 @@ *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent Bleichenbacher's DSA attack. + Extend BN_[pseudo_]rand: As before, top=1 forces the highest two bits + to be set and top=0 forces the highest bit to be set; top=-1 is new + and leaves the highest bit random.
