The various extensions + which use the IP:a.b.c.d can now take IPv6 addresses using the + formats of RFC1884 2.2 . IPv6 addresses are now also displayed + correctly. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key + exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from + GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms + cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught up. + However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could + provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can be + specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary + linker additions, eg; + ./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) "openssl engine" will not display ENGINE/DSO load failure errors when + testing availability of engines with "-t" - the old behaviour is + produced by increasing the feature's verbosity with "-tt". + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) ECDSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects + could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early + enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Nils Larsch + via PR#459) + [Lutz Jaenicke] + + *) Key-generation can now be implemented in RSA_METHOD, DSA_METHOD + and DH_METHOD (eg. by ENGINE implementations) to override the normal + software implementations. For DSA and DH, parameter generation can + also be overriden by providing the appropriate method callbacks. + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Change the "progress" mechanism used in key-generation and + primality testing to functions that take a new BN_GENCB pointer in + place of callback/argument pairs. The new API functions have "_ex" + postfixes and the older functions are reimplemented as wrappers for + the new ones. The OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol can be used to hide + declarations of the old functions to help (graceful) attempts to + migrate to the new functions. Also, the new key-generation API + functions operate on a caller-supplied key-structure and return + success/failure rather than returning a key or NULL - this is to + help make "keygen" another member function of RSA_METHOD etc. + + Example for using the new callback interface: + + int (*my_callback)(int a, int b, BN_GENCB *cb) = ...; + void *my_arg = ...; + BN_GENCB my_cb; + + BN_GENCB_set(&my_cb, my_callback, my_arg); + + return BN_is_prime_ex(some_bignum, BN_prime_checks, NULL, &cb); + /* For the meaning of a, b in calls to my_callback(), see the + * documentation of the function that calls the callback. + * cb will point to my_cb; my_arg can be retrieved as cb->arg. + * my_callback should return 1 if it wants BN_is_prime_ex() + * to continue, or 0 to stop. + */ + + [Geoff Thorpe] + + *) Change the ZLIB compression method to be stateful, and make it + available to TLS with the number defined in + draft-ietf-tls-compression-04.txt. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add the ASN.1 structures and functions for CertificatePair, which + is defined as follows (according to X.509_4thEditionDraftV6.pdf): + + CertificatePair ::= SEQUENCE { + forward [0] Certificate OPTIONAL, + reverse [1] Certificate OPTIONAL, + -- at least one of the pair shall be present -- } + + Also implement the PEM functions to read and write certificate + pairs, and defined the PEM tag as "CERTIFICATE PAIR". + + This needed to be defined, mostly for the sake of the LDAP + attribute crossCertificatePair, but may prove useful elsewhere as + well. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Make it possible to inhibit symlinking of shared libraries in + Makefile.shared, for Cygwin's sake. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Extend the BIGNUM API by creating new macros that behave like + functions + + void BN_set_sign(BIGNUM *a, int neg); + int BN_get_sign(const BIGNUM *a); + + and avoid the need to access 'a->neg' directly in applications. + [Nils Larsch ] + + *) Implement fast modular reduction for pseudo-Mersenne primes + used in NIST curves (crypto/bn/bn_nist.c, crypto/ec/ecp_nist.c). + EC_GROUP_new_curve_GFp() will now automatically use this + if applicable. + [Nils Larsch ] + + *) Add new lock type (CRYPTO_LOCK_BN). + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Change the ENGINE framework to automatically load engines + dynamically from specific directories unless they could be + found to already be built in or loaded. Move all the + current engines except for the cryptodev one to a new + directory engines/. + The engines in engines/ are built as shared libraries if + the "shared" options was given to ./Configure or ./config. + Otherwise, they are inserted in libcrypto.a. + /usr/local/ssl/engines is the default directory for dynamic + engines, but that can be overriden at configure time through + the usual use of --prefix and/or --openssldir, and at run + time with the environment variable OPENSSL_ENGINES. + [Geoff Thorpe and Richard Levitte] + + *) Add Makefile.shared, a helper makefile to build shared + libraries. Addapt Makefile.org. + [Richard Levitte] + + *) Add version info to Win32 DLLs. + [Peter 'Luna' Runestig" ] + + *) Add new 'medium level' PKCS#12 API. Certificates and keys + can be added using this API to created arbitrary PKCS#12 + files while avoiding the low level API. + + New options to PKCS12_create(), key or cert can be NULL and + will then be omitted from the output file. The encryption + algorithm NIDs can be set to -1 for no encryption, the mac + iteration count can be set to 0 to omit the mac. + + Enhance pkcs12 utility by making the -nokeys and -nocerts + options work when creating a PKCS#12 file. New option -nomac + to omit the mac, NONE can be set for an encryption algorithm. + New code is modified to use the enhanced PKCS12_create() + instead of the low level API. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Extend ASN1 encoder to support indefinite length constructed + encoding. This can output sequences tags and octet strings in + this form. Modify pk7_asn1.c to support indefinite length + encoding. This is experimental and needs additional code to + be useful, such as an ASN1 bio and some enhanced streaming + PKCS#7 code. + + Extend template encode functionality so that tagging is passed + down to the template encoder. + [Steve Henson] + + *) Let 'openssl req' fail if an argument to '-newkey' is not + recognized instead of using RSA as a default. + [Bodo Moeller] + + *) Add support for ECC-based ciphersuites from draft-ietf-tls-ecc-01.txt. + As these are not official, they are not included in "ALL"; + the "ECCdraft" ciphersuite group alias can be used to select them. + [Vipul Gupta and Sumit Gupta (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)] + + *) Add ECDH engine support. + [Nils Gura and Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)] + + *) Add ECDH in new directory crypto/ecdh/. +TODO: more general interface (return x coordinate, not its hash) +TODO: bug: pad x with leading zeros if necessary + [Douglas Stebila (Sun Microsystems Laboratories)] *) Let BN_rand_range() abort with an error after 100 iterations without success (which indicates a broken PRNG). @@ -120,9 +299,11 @@ bntest.c has additional tests for binary polynomial arithmetic. - Two implementations for BN_GF2m_mod_div() are available (selected - at compile-time). ... -TBD ...
