The macros EVP_DigestSignUpdate() and + EVP_DigestVerifyUpdate() have been converted to functions. See the man + pages for further details. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) Over two thousand fixes were made to the documentation, including: + adding missing command flags, better style conformance, documentation + of internals, etc. + [Rich Salz, Richard Levitte] + + *) s390x assembly pack: add hardware-support for P-256, P-384, P-521, + X25519, X448, Ed25519 and Ed448. + [Patrick Steuer] + + *) Print all values for a PKCS#12 attribute with 'openssl pkcs12', not just + the first value. + [Jon Spillett] + + *) Deprecated the public definition of ERR_STATE as well as the function + ERR_get_state(). This is done in preparation of making ERR_STATE an + opaque type. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Added ERR functionality to give callers access to the stored function + names that have replaced the older function code based functions. + + New functions are ERR_get_error_func(), ERR_peek_error_func(), + ERR_peek_last_error_func(), ERR_get_error_data(), ERR_peek_error_data(), + ERR_peek_last_error_data(), ERR_get_error_all(), ERR_peek_error_all() + and ERR_peek_last_error_all(). + + These functions have become deprecated: ERR_get_error_line_data(), + ERR_peek_error_line_data(), ERR_peek_last_error_line_data() and + ERR_func_error_string(). + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Extended testing to be verbose for failing tests only. The make variables + VERBOSE_FAILURE or VF can be used to enable this: + + $ make VF=1 test # Unix + $ mms /macro=(VF=1) test ! OpenVMS + $ nmake VF=1 test # Windows + + [Richard Levitte] + + *) For built-in EC curves, ensure an EC_GROUP built from the curve name is + used even when parsing explicit parameters, when loading a serialized key + or calling `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecpkparameters()`/ + `EC_GROUP_new_from_ecparameters()`. + This prevents bypass of security hardening and performance gains, + especially for curves with specialized EC_METHODs. + By default, if a key encoded with explicit parameters is loaded and later + serialized, the output is still encoded with explicit parameters, even if + internally a "named" EC_GROUP is used for computation. + [Nicola Tuveri] + + *) Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before + this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as + NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also + does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order. + (CVE-2019-1547) + [Billy Bob Brumley] + + *) Fixed a padding oracle in PKCS7_dataDecode and CMS_decrypt_set1_pkey. + An attack is simple, if the first CMS_recipientInfo is valid but the + second CMS_recipientInfo is chosen ciphertext. If the second + recipientInfo decodes to PKCS #1 v1.5 form plaintext, the correct + encryption key will be replaced by garbage, and the message cannot be + decoded, but if the RSA decryption fails, the correct encryption key is + used and the recipient will not notice the attack. + As a work around for this potential attack the length of the decrypted + key must be equal to the cipher default key length, in case the + certifiate is not given and all recipientInfo are tried out. + The old behaviour can be re-enabled in the CMS code by setting the + CMS_DEBUG_DECRYPT flag. + [Bernd Edlinger] + + *) Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been + improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for + /dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom. + The seeded state is stored for future library initialisations using + a system global shared memory segment. The shared memory identifier + can be configured by defining OPENSSL_RAND_SEED_DEVRANDOM_SHM_ID to + the desired value. The default identifier is 114. + [Paul Dale] + + *) Revised BN_generate_prime_ex to not avoid factors 2..17863 in p-1 + when primes for RSA keys are computed. + Since we previously always generated primes == 2 (mod 3) for RSA keys, + the 2-prime and 3-prime RSA modules were easy to distinguish, since + N = p*q = 1 (mod 3), but N = p*q*r = 2 (mod 3). Therefore fingerprinting + 2-prime vs. 3-prime RSA keys was possible by computing N mod 3. + This avoids possible fingerprinting of newly generated RSA modules. + [Bernd Edlinger] + + *) Correct the extended master secret constant on EBCDIC systems. Without this + fix TLS connections between an EBCDIC system and a non-EBCDIC system that + negotiate EMS will fail. Unfortunately this also means that TLS connections + between EBCDIC systems with this fix, and EBCDIC systems without this + fix will fail if they negotiate EMS. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) Changed the library initialisation so that the config file is now loaded + by default. This was already the case for libssl. It now occurs for both + libcrypto and libssl. Use the OPENSSL_INIT_NO_LOAD_CONFIG option to + OPENSSL_init_crypto() to suppress automatic loading of a config file. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) Introduced new error raising macros, ERR_raise() and ERR_raise_data(), + where the former acts as a replacement for ERR_put_error(), and the + latter replaces the combination ERR_put_error()+ERR_add_error_data(). + ERR_raise_data() adds more flexibility by taking a format string and + an arbitrary number of arguments following it, to be processed with + BIO_snprintf(). + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Introduced a new function, OSSL_PROVIDER_available(), which can be used + to check if a named provider is loaded and available. When called, it + will also activate all fallback providers if such are still present. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Enforce a minimum DH modulus size of 512 bits. + [Bernd Edlinger] + + *) Changed DH parameters to generate the order q subgroup instead of 2q. + Previously generated DH parameters are still accepted by DH_check + but DH_generate_key works around that by clearing bit 0 of the + private key for those. This avoids leaking bit 0 of the private key. + [Bernd Edlinger] + + *) Significantly reduce secure memory usage by the randomness pools. + [Paul Dale] + + *) {CRYPTO,OPENSSL}_mem_debug_{push,pop} are now no-ops and have been + deprecated. + [Rich Salz] + + *) A new type, EVP_KEYEXCH, has been introduced to represent key exchange + algorithms. An implementation of a key exchange algorithm can be obtained + by using the function EVP_KEYEXCH_fetch(). An EVP_KEYEXCH algorithm can be + used in a call to EVP_PKEY_derive_init_ex() which works in a similar way to + the older EVP_PKEY_derive_init() function. See the man pages for the new + functions for further details. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) The EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_pad() macro has now been converted to a function. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) Removed the function names from error messages and deprecated the + xxx_F_xxx define's. + + *) Removed NextStep support and the macro OPENSSL_UNISTD + [Rich Salz] + + *) Removed DES_check_key. Also removed OPENSSL_IMPLEMENT_GLOBAL, + OPENSSL_GLOBAL_REF, OPENSSL_DECLARE_GLOBAL. + Also removed "export var as function" capability; we do not export + variables, only functions. + [Rich Salz] + + *) RC5_32_set_key has been changed to return an int type, with 0 indicating + an error and 1 indicating success. In previous versions of OpenSSL this + was a void type. If a key was set longer than the maximum possible this + would crash. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) Support SM2 signing and verification schemes with X509 certificate. + [Paul Yang] + + *) Use SHA256 as the default digest for TS query in the ts app. + [Tomas Mraz] + + *) Change PBKDF2 to conform to SP800-132 instead of the older PKCS5 RFC2898. + This checks that the salt length is at least 128 bits, the derived key + length is at least 112 bits, and that the iteration count is at least 1000. + For backwards compatibility these checks are disabled by default in the + default provider, but are enabled by default in the fips provider. + To enable or disable these checks use the control + EVP_KDF_CTRL_SET_PBKDF2_PKCS5_MODE. + [Shane Lontis] + + *) Default cipher lists/suites are now available via a function, the + #defines are deprecated. + [Todd Short] + + *) Add target VC-WIN32-UWP, VC-WIN64A-UWP, VC-WIN32-ARM-UWP and + VC-WIN64-ARM-UWP in Windows OneCore target for making building libraries + for Windows Store apps easier. Also, the "no-uplink" option has been added. + [Kenji Mouri] + + *) Join the directories crypto/x509 and crypto/x509v3 + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Change the default RSA, DSA and DH size to 2048 bit instead of 1024. + This changes the size when using the genpkey app when no size is given. It + fixes an omission in earlier changes that changed all RSA, DSA and DH + generation apps to use 2048 bits by default. + [Kurt Roeckx] + + *) Added command 'openssl kdf' that uses the EVP_KDF API. + [Shane Lontis] + + *) Added command 'openssl mac' that uses the EVP_MAC API. + [Shane Lontis] + + *) Added OPENSSL_info() to get diverse built-in OpenSSL data, such + as default directories. Also added the command 'openssl info' + for scripting purposes. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) The functions AES_ige_encrypt() and AES_bi_ige_encrypt() have been + deprecated. These undocumented functions were never integrated into the EVP + layer and implement the AES Infinite Garble Extension (IGE) mode and AES + Bi-directional IGE mode. These modes were never formally standardised and + usage of these functions is believed to be very small. In particular + AES_bi_ige_encrypt() has a known bug. It accepts 2 AES keys, but only one + is ever used. The security implications are believed to be minimal, but + this issue was never fixed for backwards compatibility reasons. New code + should not use these modes. + [Matt Caswell] + + *) Add prediction resistance to the DRBG reseeding process. + [Paul Dale] + + *) Limit the number of blocks in a data unit for AES-XTS to 2^20 as + mandated by IEEE Std 1619-2018. + [Paul Dale] + + *) Added newline escaping functionality to a filename when using openssl dgst. + This output format is to replicate the output format found in the '*sum' + checksum programs. This aims to preserve backward compatibility. + [Matt Eaton, Richard Levitte, and Paul Dale] + + *) Removed the heartbeat message in DTLS feature, as it has very + little usage and doesn't seem to fulfill a valuable purpose. + The configuration option is now deprecated. + [Richard Levitte] + *) Changed the output of 'openssl {digestname} < file' to display the digest name in its output.
