Most notably, + - 'openssl req' now has a '-newkey ecdsa:file' option; + - EVP_PKCS82PKEY (crypto/evp/evp_pkey.c) now can handle ECDSA; + - X509_PUBKEY_get (crypto/asn1/x_pubkey.c) and + d2i_PublicKey (crypto/asn1/d2i_pu.c) have been modified to make + them suitable for ECDSA where domain parameters must be + extracted before the specific public key. + [Nils Larsch ] + + *) Add reference counting for EC_GROUP objects. + [Nils Larsch ] + + *) Include some named elliptic curves. These can be obtained from + the new functions + EC_GROUP_new_by_nid() + EC_GROUP_new_by_name() + Also add a 'nid' field to EC_GROUP objects, which can be accessed + via + EC_GROUP_set_nid() + EC_GROUP_get_nid() + [Nils Larsch ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx) + has been changed into + i=s->ctx->app_verify_callback(&ctx, s->ctx->app_verify_arg). + + To update applications using SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback(), + a dummy argument can be added to their callback functions. + [D. K. Smetters ] + + +) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards. + [Maurice Gittens , touchups by Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Fix bug in SSL_clear(): bad sessions were not removed (found by + Yoram Zahavi ). + [Lutz Jaenicke] + + +) Add and OPENSSL_LOAD_CONF define which will cause + OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() to load the openssl.cnf config file. + This allows older applications to transparently support certain + OpenSSL features: such as crypto acceleration and dynamic ENGINE loading. + Two new functions OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() which will never + load the config file and OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_conf() which will + always load it have also been added. + [Steve Henson] + + +) Add the OFB, CFB and CTR (all with 128 bit feedback) to AES. + Adjust NIDs and EVP layer. + [Stephen Sprunk and Richard Levitte] + + +) Config modules support in openssl utility. + + Most commands now load modules from the config file, + though in a few (such as version) this isn't done + because it couldn't be used for anything. + + In the case of ca and req the config file used is + the same as the utility itself: that is the -config + command line option can be used to specify an + alternative file. + [Steve Henson] + + +) Move default behaviour from OPENSSL_config(). If appname is NULL + use "openssl_conf" if filename is NULL use default openssl config file. + [Steve Henson] + + +) Add an argument to OPENSSL_config() to allow the use of an alternative + config section name. Add a new flag to tolerate a missing config file + and move code to CONF_modules_load_file(). + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add information about CygWin 1.3 and on, and preserve proper configuration for the versions before that.
