This includes support + for public and private key encoding using the format documented in + draft-josefsson-pkix-newcurves-01: specifically X25519 uses the + OID from that draft, encodes public keys using little endian + format in the ECPoint structure and private keys using + little endian form in the privateKey field of the ECPrivateKey + structure. TLS support complies with draft-ietf-tls-rfc4492bis-06 + and uses X25519(29). + + Note: the current version supports key generation, public and + private key encoding and ECDH key agreement using the EC API. + Low level point operations such as EC_POINT_add(), EC_POINT_mul() + are NOT supported. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Deprecate SRP_VBASE_get_by_user. + SRP_VBASE_get_by_user had inconsistent memory management behaviour. + In order to fix an unavoidable memory leak (CVE-2016-0798), + SRP_VBASE_get_by_user was changed to ignore the "fake user" SRP + seed, even if the seed is configured. + + Users should use SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user instead. Note that in + SRP_VBASE_get1_by_user, caller must free the returned value. Note + also that even though configuring the SRP seed attempts to hide + invalid usernames by continuing the handshake with fake + credentials, this behaviour is not constant time and no strong + guarantees are made that the handshake is indistinguishable from + that of a valid user. + [Emilia Käsper] + + *) Configuration change; it's now possible to build dynamic engines + without having to build shared libraries and vice versa. This + only applies to the engines in engines/, those in crypto/engine/ + will always be built into libcrypto (i.e. "static"). + + Building dynamic engines is enabled by default; to disable, use + the configuration option "disable-dynamic-engine". + + The only requirements for building dynamic engines are the + presence of the DSO module and building with position independent + code, so they will also automatically be disabled if configuring + with "disable-dso" or "disable-pic". + + The macros OPENSSL_NO_STATIC_ENGINE and OPENSSL_NO_DYNAMIC_ENGINE + are also taken away from openssl/opensslconf.h, as they are + irrelevant. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Configuration change; if there is a known flag to compile + position independent code, it will always be applied on the + libcrypto and libssl object files, and never on the application + object files. This means other libraries that use routines from + libcrypto / libssl can be made into shared libraries regardless + of how OpenSSL was configured. + + If this isn't desirable, the configuration options "disable-pic" + or "no-pic" can be used to disable the use of PIC. This will + also disable building shared libraries and dynamic engines. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Removed JPAKE code. It was experimental and has no wide use. + [Rich Salz] + + *) The INSTALL_PREFIX Makefile variable has been renamed to + DESTDIR. That makes for less confusion on what this variable + is for. Also, the configuration option --install_prefix is + removed. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Heartbeat for TLS has been removed and is disabled by default + for DTLS; configure with enable-heartbeats. Code that uses the + old #define's might need to be updated. + [Emilia Käsper, Rich Salz] + + *) Rename REF_CHECK to REF_DEBUG. + [Rich Salz] + + *) New "unified" build system + + The "unified" build system is aimed to be a common system for all + platforms we support. With it comes new support for VMS. + + This system builds supports building in a different directory tree + than the source tree. It produces one Makefile (for unix family + or lookalikes), or one descrip.mms (for VMS). + + The source of information to make the Makefile / descrip.mms is + small files called 'build.info', holding the necessary + information for each directory with source to compile, and a + template in Configurations, like unix-Makefile.tmpl or + descrip.mms.tmpl. + + We rely heavily on the perl module Text::Template. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Added support for auto-initialisation and de-initialisation of the library. + OpenSSL no longer requires explicit init or deinit routines to be called, + except in certain circumstances. See the OPENSSL_init_crypto() and + OPENSSL_init_ssl() man pages for further information. + [Matt Caswell] + *) The arguments to the DTLSv1_listen function have changed.
