(We have to use + BN_zero, we may not return a BIGNUM with an array consisting of + words set to zero.) + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Avoid calling abort() from within the library when problems are + detected, except if preprocessor symbols have been defined + (such as REF_CHECK, BN_DEBUG etc.). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) New openssl application 'rsautl'. This utility can be + used for low level RSA operations. DER public key + BIO/fp routines also added. + [Steve Henson] + + *) New Configure entry and patches for compiling on QNX 4. + [Andreas Schneider ] + + *) A demo state-machine implementation was sponsored by + Nuron (http://www.nuron.com/) and is now available in + demos/state_machine. + [Ben Laurie] + + *) New options added to the 'dgst' utility for signature + generation and verification. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Unrecognized PKCS#7 content types are now handled via a + catch all ASN1_TYPE structure. This allows unsupported + types to be stored as a "blob" and an application can + encode and decode it manually. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Fix various signed/unsigned issues to make a_strex.c + compile under VC++. + [Oscar Jacobsson ] + + *) ASN1 fixes. i2d_ASN1_OBJECT was not returning the correct + length if passed a buffer. ASN1_INTEGER_to_BN failed + if passed a NULL BN and its argument was negative. + [Steve Henson, pointed out by Sven Heiberg ] + + *) Modification to PKCS#7 encoding routines to output definite + length encoding. Since currently the whole structures are in + memory there's not real point in using indefinite length + constructed encoding. However if OpenSSL is compiled with + the flag PKCS7_INDEFINITE_ENCODING the old form is used. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Added BIO_vprintf() and BIO_vsnprintf(). + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written + through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available + through syslog. The prefixes are now: + + PANIC, EMERG, EMR => LOG_EMERG + ALERT, ALR => LOG_ALERT + CRIT, CRI => LOG_CRIT + ERROR, ERR => LOG_ERR + WARNING, WARN, WAR => LOG_WARNING + NOTICE, NOTE, NOT => LOG_NOTICE + INFO, INF => LOG_INFO + DEBUG, DBG => LOG_DEBUG + + and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the + beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen. + + On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this: + + LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE + LOG_WARNING => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE + LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE + + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration + argument "reconf" or "reconfigure". The command line arguments + are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS, + and are retrieved from there when reconfiguring. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) MD4 implemented. + [Assar Westerlund , Richard Levitte] + + *) Add the arguments -CAfile and -CApath to the pkcs12 utility. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) The obj_dat.pl script was messing up the sorting of object + names. The reason was that it compared the quoted version + of strings as a result "OCSP" > "OCSP Signing" because + " > SPACE. Changed script to store unquoted versions of + names and add quotes on output. It was also omitting some + names from the lookup table if they were given a default + value (that is if SN is missing it is given the same + value as LN and vice versa), these are now added on the + grounds that if an object has a name we should be able to + look it up. Finally added warning output when duplicate + short or long names are found. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Changes needed for Tandem NSK. + [Scott Uroff scott@xypro.com] + + *) Fix SSL 2.0 rollback checking: Due to an off-by-one error in + RSA_padding_check_SSLv23(), special padding was never detected + and thus the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 countermeasure against protocol + version rollback attacks was not effective. + + In s23_clnt.c, don't use special rollback-attack detection padding + (RSA_SSLV23_PADDING) if SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the + client; similarly, in s23_srvr.c, don't do the rollback check if + SSL 2.0 is the only protocol enabled in the server. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Make it possible to get hexdumps of unprintable data with 'openssl + asn1parse'. By implication, the functions ASN1_parse_dump() and + BIO_dump_indent() are added. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) New functions ASN1_STRING_print_ex() and X509_NAME_print_ex() + these print out strings and name structures based on various + flags including RFC2253 support and proper handling of + multibyte characters. Added options to the 'x509' utility + to allow the various flags to be set. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Various fixes to use ASN1_TIME instead of ASN1_UTCTIME. + Also change the functions X509_cmp_current_time() and + X509_gmtime_adj() work with an ASN1_TIME structure, + this will enable certificates using GeneralizedTime in validity + dates to be checked. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Make the NEG_PUBKEY_BUG code (which tolerates invalid + negative public key encodings) on by default, + NO_NEG_PUBKEY_BUG can be set to disable it. + [Steve Henson] + + *) New function c2i_ASN1_OBJECT() which acts on ASN1_OBJECT + content octets. An i2c_ASN1_OBJECT is unnecessary because + the encoding can be trivially obtained from the structure. + [Steve Henson] + + *) crypto/err.c locking bugfix: Use write locks (CRYPTO_w_[un]lock), + not read locks (CRYPTO_r_[un]lock). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) A first attempt at creating official support for shared + libraries through configuration. I've kept it so the + default is static libraries only, and the OpenSSL programs + are always statically linked for now, but there are + preparations for dynamic linking in place. + This has been tested on Linux and True64. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Randomness polling function for Win9x, as described in: + Peter Gutmann, Software Generation of Practically Strong + Random Numbers. + [Ulf Möller] + + *) Fix so PRNG is seeded in req if using an already existing + DSA key. + [Steve Henson] + + *) New options to smime application. -inform and -outform + allow alternative formats for the S/MIME message including + PEM and DER. The -content option allows the content to be + specified separately. This should allow things like Netscape + form signing output easier to verify. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Fix the ASN1 encoding of tags using the 'long form'. + [Steve Henson] + + *) New ASN1 functions, i2c_* and c2i_* for INTEGER and BIT + STRING types. These convert content octets to and from the + underlying type. The actual tag and length octets are + already assumed to have been read in and checked. These + are needed because all other string types have virtually + identical handling apart from the tag. By having versions + of the ASN1 functions that just operate on content octets + IMPLICIT tagging can be handled properly. It also allows + the ASN1_ENUMERATED code to be cut down because ASN1_ENUMERATED + and ASN1_INTEGER are identical apart from the tag. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Change the handling of OID objects as follows: + + - New object identifiers are inserted in objects.txt, following + the syntax given in objects.README. + - objects.pl is used to process obj_mac.num and create a new + obj_mac.h. + - obj_dat.pl is used to create a new obj_dat.h, using the data in + obj_mac.h. + + This is currently kind of a hack, and the perl code in objects.pl + isn't very elegant, but it works as I intended. The simplest way + to check that it worked correctly is to look in obj_dat.h and + check the array nid_objs and make sure the objects haven't moved + around (this is important!). Additions are OK, as well as + consistent name changes. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add BSD-style MD5-based passwords to 'openssl passwd' (option '-1'). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Addition of the command line parameter '-rand file' to 'openssl req'. + The given file adds to whatever has already been seeded into the + random pool through the RANDFILE configuration file option or + environment variable, or the default random state file. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) mkstack.pl now sorts each macro group into lexical order. + Previously the output order depended on the order the files + appeared in the directory, resulting in needless rewriting + of safestack.h . + [Steve Henson] + + *) Patches to make OpenSSL compile under Win32 again. Mostly + work arounds for the VC++ problem that it treats func() as + func(void). Also stripped out the parts of mkdef.pl that + added extra typesafe functions: these no longer exist. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Reorganisation of the stack code. The macros are now all + collected in safestack.h . Each macro is defined in terms of + a "stack macro" of the form SKM_(type, a, b). The + DEBUG_SAFESTACK is now handled in terms of function casts, + this has the advantage of retaining type safety without the + use of additional functions. If DEBUG_SAFESTACK is not defined + then the non typesafe macros are used instead. Also modified the + mkstack.pl script to handle the new form. Needs testing to see + if which (if any) compilers it chokes and maybe make DEBUG_SAFESTACK + the default if no major problems. Similar behaviour for ASN1_SET_OF + and PKCS12_STACK_OF. + [Steve Henson] + + *) When some versions of IIS use the 'NET' form of private key the + key derivation algorithm is different. Normally MD5(password) is + used as a 128 bit RC4 key. In the modified case + MD5(MD5(password) + "SGCKEYSALT") is used insted. Added some + new functions i2d_RSA_NET(), d2i_RSA_NET() etc which are the same + as the old Netscape_RSA functions except they have an additional + 'sgckey' parameter which uses the modified algorithm. Also added + an -sgckey command line option to the rsa utility. Thanks to + Adrian Peck for posting details of the modified + algorithm to openssl-dev. + [Steve Henson] + + *) The evp_local.h macros were using 'c.##kname' which resulted in + invalid expansion on some systems (SCO 5.0.5 for example). + Corrected to 'c.kname'. + [Phillip Porch ] + + *) New X509_get1_email() and X509_REQ_get1_email() functions that return + a STACK of email addresses from a certificate or request, these look + in the subject name and the subject alternative name extensions and + omit any duplicate addresses. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Re-implement BN_mod_exp2_mont using independent (and larger) windows. + This makes DSA verification about 2 % faster. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Increase maximum window size in BN_mod_exp_... to 6 bits instead of 5 + (meaning that now 2^5 values will be precomputed, which is only 4 KB + plus overhead for 1024 bit moduli). + This makes exponentiations about 0.5 % faster for 1024 bit + exponents (as measured by "openssl speed rsa2048"). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Rename memory handling macros to avoid conflicts with other + software: + Malloc => OPENSSL_malloc + Malloc_locked => OPENSSL_malloc_locked + Realloc => OPENSSL_realloc + Free => OPENSSL_free + [Richard Levitte] + + *) New function BN_mod_exp_mont_word for small bases (roughly 15% + faster than BN_mod_exp_mont, i.e. 7% for a full DH exchange). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) CygWin32 support. + [John Jarvie ] + + *) The type-safe stack code has been rejigged. It is now only compiled + in when OpenSSL is configured with the DEBUG_SAFESTACK option and + by default all type-specific stack functions are "#define"d back to + standard stack functions. This results in more streamlined output + but retains the type-safety checking possibilities of the original + approach. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) The STACK code has been cleaned up, and certain type declarations + that didn't make a lot of sense have been brought in line. This has + also involved a cleanup of sorts in safestack.h to more correctly + map type-safe stack functions onto their plain stack counterparts. + This work has also resulted in a variety of "const"ifications of + lots of the code, especially "_cmp" operations which should normally + be prototyped with "const" parameters anyway. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) When generating bytes for the first time in md_rand.c, 'stir the pool' + by seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes (with zero entropy count). + (The PRNG state consists of two parts, the large pool 'state' and 'md', + where all of 'md' is used each time the PRNG is used, but 'state' + is used only indexed by a cyclic counter. As entropy may not be + well distributed from the beginning, 'md' is important as a + chaining variable. However, the output function chains only half + of 'md', i.e. 80 bits. ssleay_rand_add, on the other hand, chains + all of 'md', and seeding with STATE_SIZE dummy bytes will result + in all of 'state' being rewritten, with the new values depending + on virtually all of 'md'. This overcomes the 80 bit limitation.) + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) In ssl/s2_clnt.c and ssl/s3_clnt.c, call ERR_clear_error() when + the handshake is continued after ssl_verify_cert_chain(); + otherwise, if SSL_VERIFY_NONE is set, remaining error codes + can lead to 'unexplainable' connection aborts later. + [Bodo Moeller; problem tracked down by Lutz Jaenicke] + + *) Major EVP API cipher revision. + Add hooks for extra EVP features. This allows various cipher + parameters to be set in the EVP interface. Support added for variable + key length ciphers via the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() function and + setting of RC2 and RC5 parameters. + + Modify EVP_OpenInit() and EVP_SealInit() to cope with variable key length + ciphers. + + Remove lots of duplicated code from the EVP library. For example *every* + cipher init() function handles the 'iv' in the same way according to the + cipher mode. They also all do nothing if the 'key' parameter is NULL and + for CFB and OFB modes they zero ctx->num. + + New functionality allows removal of S/MIME code RC2 hack. + + Most of the routines have the same form and so can be declared in terms + of macros. + + By shifting this to the top level EVP_CipherInit() it can be removed from + all individual ciphers. If the cipher wants to handle IVs or keys + differently it can set the EVP_CIPH_CUSTOM_IV or EVP_CIPH_ALWAYS_CALL_INIT + flags. + + Change lots of functions like EVP_EncryptUpdate() to now return a + value: although software versions of the algorithms cannot fail + any installed hardware versions can. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Implement SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG: In ssl3_get_client_key_exchange, if + this option is set, tolerate broken clients that send the negotiated + protocol version number instead of the requested protocol version + number. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Call dh_tmp_cb (set by ..._TMP_DH_CB) with correct 'is_export' flag; + i.e. non-zero for export ciphersuites, zero otherwise. + Previous versions had this flag inverted, inconsistent with + rsa_tmp_cb (..._TMP_RSA_CB). + [Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Amit Chopra] + + *) Add missing DSA library text string. Work around for some IIS + key files with invalid SEQUENCE encoding. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Add a document (doc/standards.txt) that list all kinds of standards + and so on that are implemented in OpenSSL. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Enhance c_rehash script. Old version would mishandle certificates + with the same subject name hash and wouldn't handle CRLs at all. + Added -fingerprint option to crl utility, to support new c_rehash + features. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Eliminate non-ANSI declarations in crypto.h and stack.h. + [Ulf Möller] + + *) Fix for SSL server purpose checking. Server checking was + rejecting certificates which had extended key usage present + but no ssl client purpose. + [Steve Henson, reported by Rene Grosser ] + + *) Make PKCS#12 code work with no password. The PKCS#12 spec + is a little unclear about how a blank password is handled. + Since the password in encoded as a BMPString with terminating + double NULL a zero length password would end up as just the + double NULL. However no password at all is different and is + handled differently in the PKCS#12 key generation code. NS + treats a blank password as zero length. MSIE treats it as no + password on export: but it will try both on import. We now do + the same: PKCS12_parse() tries zero length and no password if + the password is set to "" or NULL (NULL is now a valid password: + it wasn't before) as does the pkcs12 application. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Bugfixes in apps/x509.c: Avoid a memory leak; and don't use + perror when PEM_read_bio_X509_REQ fails, the error message must + be obtained from the error queue. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Avoid 'thread_hash' memory leak in crypto/err/err.c by freeing + it in ERR_remove_state if appropriate, and change ERR_get_state + accordingly to avoid race conditions (this is necessary because + thread_hash is no longer constant once set). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Bugfix for linux-elf makefile.one. + [Ulf Möller] + + *) RSA_get_default_method() will now cause a default + RSA_METHOD to be chosen if one doesn't exist already. + Previously this was only set during a call to RSA_new() + or RSA_new_method(NULL) meaning it was possible for + RSA_get_default_method() to return NULL. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Added native name translation to the existing DSO code + that will convert (if the flag to do so is set) filenames + that are sufficiently small and have no path information + into a canonical native form. Eg. "blah" converted to + "libblah.so" or "blah.dll" etc. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) New function ERR_error_string_n(e, buf, len) which is like + ERR_error_string(e, buf), but writes at most 'len' bytes + including the 0 terminator. For ERR_error_string_n, 'buf' + may not be NULL. + [Damien Miller , Bodo Moeller] + + *) CONF library reworked to become more general. A new CONF + configuration file reader "class" is implemented as well as a + new functions (NCONF_*, for "New CONF") to handle it. The now + old CONF_* functions are still there, but are reimplemented to + work in terms of the new functions. Also, a set of functions + to handle the internal storage of the configuration data is + provided to make it easier to write new configuration file + reader "classes" (I can definitely see something reading a + configuration file in XML format, for example), called _CONF_*, + or "the configuration storage API"... + + The new configuration file reading functions are: + + NCONF_new, NCONF_free, NCONF_load, NCONF_load_fp, NCONF_load_bio, + NCONF_get_section, NCONF_get_string, NCONF_get_numbre + + NCONF_default, NCONF_WIN32 + + NCONF_dump_fp, NCONF_dump_bio + + NCONF_default and NCONF_WIN32 are method (or "class") choosers, + NCONF_new creates a new CONF object. This works in the same way + as other interfaces in OpenSSL, like the BIO interface. + NCONF_dump_* dump the internal storage of the configuration file, + which is useful for debugging. All other functions take the same + arguments as the old CONF_* functions wth the exception of the + first that must be a `CONF *' instead of a `LHASH *'. + + To make it easer to use the new classes with the old CONF_* functions, + the function CONF_set_default_method is provided. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add '-tls1' option to 'openssl ciphers', which was already + mentioned in the documentation but had not been implemented. + (This option is not yet really useful because even the additional + experimental TLS 1.0 ciphers are currently treated as SSL 3.0 ciphers.) + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Initial DSO code added into libcrypto for letting OpenSSL (and + OpenSSL-based applications) load shared libraries and bind to + them in a portable way. + [Geoff Thorpe, with contributions from Richard Levitte] + + Changes between 0.9.5 and 0.9.5a [1 Apr 2000] + + *) Make sure _lrotl and _lrotr are only used with MSVC. + + *) Use lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RAND correctly in ssleay_rand_status + (the default implementation of RAND_status). + + *) Rename openssl x509 option '-crlext', which was added in 0.9.5, + to '-clrext' (= clear extensions), as intended and documented. + [Bodo Moeller; inconsistency pointed out by Michael Attili + ] + + *) Fix for HMAC. It wasn't zeroing the rest of the block if the key length + was larger than the MD block size. + [Steve Henson, pointed out by Yost William ] + + *) Modernise PKCS12_parse() so it uses STACK_OF(X509) for its ca argument + fix a leak when the ca argument was passed as NULL. Stop X509_PUBKEY_set() + using the passed key: if the passed key was a private key the result + of X509_print(), for example, would be to print out all the private key + components. + [Steve Henson] + + *) des_quad_cksum() byte order bug fix. + [Ulf Möller, using the problem description in krb4-0.9.7, where + the solution is attributed to Derrick J Brashear ] + + *) Fix so V_ASN1_APP_CHOOSE works again: however its use is strongly + discouraged. + [Steve Henson, pointed out by Brian Korver ] + + *) For easily testing in shell scripts whether some command + 'openssl XXX' exists, the new pseudo-command 'openssl no-XXX' + returns with exit code 0 iff no command of the given name is available. + 'no-XXX' is printed in this case, 'XXX' otherwise. In both cases, + the output goes to stdout and nothing is printed to stderr. + Additional arguments are always ignored. + + Since for each cipher there is a command of the same name, + the 'no-cipher' compilation switches can be tested this way. + + ('openssl no-XXX' is not able to detect pseudo-commands such + as 'quit', 'list-XXX-commands', or 'no-XXX' itself.) + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Update test suite so that 'make test' succeeds in 'no-rsa' configuration. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) For SSL_[CTX_]set_tmp_dh, don't create a DH key if SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE + is set; it will be thrown away anyway because each handshake creates + its own key. + ssl_cert_dup, which is used by SSL_new, now copies DH keys in addition + to parameters -- in previous versions (since OpenSSL 0.9.3) the + 'default key' from SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh would always be lost, meanining + you effectivly got SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE when using this macro. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) New s_client option -ign_eof: EOF at stdin is ignored, and + 'Q' and 'R' lose their special meanings (quit/renegotiate). + This is part of what -quiet does; unlike -quiet, -ign_eof + does not suppress any output. + [Richard Levitte] *) Add compatibility options to the purpose and trust code.
