8000

  *) Change AES_cbc_encrypt() so it outputs exact multiple of
     blocks during encryption.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Various fixes to base64 BIO and non blocking I/O. On write
     flushes were not handled properly if the BIO retried. On read
     data was not being buffered properly and had various logic bugs.
     This also affects blocking I/O when the data being decoded is a
     certain size.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Various S/MIME bugfixes and compatibility changes:
     output correct application/pkcs7 MIME type if
     PKCS7_NOOLDMIMETYPE is set. Tolerate some broken signatures.
     Output CR+LF for EOL if PKCS7_CRLFEOL is set (this makes opening
     of files as .eml work). Correctly handle very long lines in MIME
     parser.
     [Steve Henson]

 Changes between 0.9.7a and 0.9.7b  [10 Apr 2003]

  *) Countermeasure against the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of
     Bleichbacher's attack on PKCS #1 v1.5 padding: treat
     a protocol version number mismatch like a decryption error
     in ssl3_get_client_key_exchange (ssl/s3_srvr.c).
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) Turn on RSA blinding by default in the default implementation
     to avoid a timing attack. Applications that don't want it can call
     RSA_blinding_off() or use the new flag RSA_FLAG_NO_BLINDING.
     They would be ill-advised to do so in most cases.
     [Ben Laurie, Steve Henson, Geoff Thorpe, Bodo Moeller]

  *) Change RSA blinding code so that it works when the PRNG is not
     seeded (in this case, the secret RSA exponent is abused as
     an unpredictable seed -- if it is not unpredictable, there
     is no point in blinding anyway).  Make RSA blinding thread-safe
     by remembering the creator's thread ID in rsa->blinding and
     having all other threads use local one-time blinding factors
     (this requires more computation than sharing rsa->blinding, but
     avoids excessive locking; and if an RSA object is not shared
     between threads, blinding will still be very fast).
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) Fixed a typo bug that would cause ENGINE_set_default() to set an
     ENGINE as defaults for all supported algorithms irrespective of
     the 'flags' parameter. 'flags' is now honoured, so applications
     should make sure they are passing it correctly.
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Target "mingw" now allows native Windows code to be generated in
     the Cygwin environment as well as with the MinGW compiler.
     [Ulf Moeller]

 Changes between 0.9.7 and 0.9.7a  [19 Feb 2003]

  *) In ssl3_get_record (ssl/s3_pkt.c), minimize information leaked
     via timing by performing a MAC computation even if incorrect
     block cipher padding has been found.  This is a countermeasure
     against active attacks where the attacker has to distinguish
     between bad padding and a MAC verification error. (CVE-2003-0078)

     [Bodo Moeller; problem pointed out by Brice Canvel (EPFL),
     Alain Hiltgen (UBS), Serge Vaudenay (EPFL), and
     Martin Vuagnoux (EPFL, Ilion)]

  *) Make the no-err option work as intended.  The intention with no-err
     is not to have the whole error stack handling routines removed from
     libcrypto, it's only intended to remove all the function name and
     reason texts, thereby removing some of the footprint that may not
     be interesting if those errors aren't displayed anyway.

     NOTE: it's still possible for any application or module to have its
     own set of error texts inserted.  The routines are there, just not
     used by default when no-err is given.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Add support for FreeBSD on IA64.
     [dirk.meyer@dinoex.sub.org via Richard Levitte, resolves #454]

  *) Adjust DES_cbc_cksum() so it returns the same value as the MIT
     Kerberos function mit_des_cbc_cksum().  Before this change,
     the value returned by DES_cbc_cksum() was like the one from
     mit_des_cbc_cksum(), except the bytes were swapped.
     [Kevin Greaney <Kevin.Greaney@hp.com> and Richard Levitte]

  *) Allow an application to disable the automatic SSL chain building.
     Before this a rather primitive chain build was always performed in
     ssl3_output_cert_chain(): an application had no way to send the
     correct chain if the automatic operation produced an incorrect result.

     Now the chain builder is disabled if either:

     1. Extra certificates are added via SSL_CTX_add_extra_chain_cert().

     2. The mode flag SSL_MODE_NO_AUTO_CHAIN is set.

     The reasoning behind this is that an application would not want the
     auto chain building to take place if extra chain certificates are
     present and it might also want a means of sending no additional
     certificates (for example the chain has two certificates and the
     root is omitted).
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Add the possibility to build without the ENGINE framework.
     [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]

  *) Under Win32 gmtime() can return NULL: check return value in
     OPENSSL_gmtime(). Add error code for case where gmtime() fails.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) DSA routines: under certain error conditions uninitialized BN objects
     could be freed. Solution: make sure initialization is performed early
     enough. (Reported and fix supplied by Ivan D Nestlerode <nestler@MIT.EDU>,
     Nils Larsch <nla@trustcenter.de> via PR#459)
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Another fix for SSLv2 session ID handling: the session ID was incorrectly
     checked on reconnect on the client side, therefore session resumption
     could still fail with a "ssl session id is different" error. This
     behaviour is masked when SSL_OP_ALL is used due to
     SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_SESS_ID_BUG being set.
     Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
     followup to PR #377.
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) IA-32 assembler support enhancements: unified ELF targets, support
     for SCO/Caldera platforms, fix for Cygwin shared build.
     [Andy Polyakov]

  *) Add support for FreeBSD on sparc64.  As a consequence, support for
     FreeBSD on non-x86 processors is separate from x86 processors on
     the config script, much like the NetBSD support.
     [Richard Levitte & Kris Kennaway <kris@obsecurity.org>]

 Changes between 0.9.6h and 0.9.7  [31 Dec 2002]

  [NB: OpenSSL 0.9.6i and later 0.9.6 patch levels were released after
  OpenSSL 0.9.7.]

  *) Fix session ID handling in SSLv2 client code: the SERVER FINISHED
     code (06) was taken as the first octet of the session ID and the last
     octet was ignored consequently. As a result SSLv2 client side session
     caching could not have worked due to the session ID mismatch between
     client and server.
     Behaviour observed by Crispin Flowerday <crispin@flowerday.cx> as
     PR #377.
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Change the declaration of needed Kerberos libraries to use EX_LIBS
     instead of the special (and badly supported) LIBKRB5.  LIBKRB5 is
     removed entirely.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) The hw_ncipher.c engine requires dynamic locks.  Unfortunately, it
     seems that in spite of existing for more than a year, many application
     author have done nothing to provide the necessary callbacks, which
     means that this particular engine will not work properly anywhere.
     This is a very unfortunate situation which forces us, in the name
     of usability, to give the hw_ncipher.c a static lock, which is part
     of libcrypto.
     NOTE: This is for the 0.9.7 series ONLY.  This hack will never
     appear in 0.9.8 or later.  We EXPECT application authors to have
     dealt properly with this when 0.9.8 is released (unless we actually
     make such changes in the libcrypto locking code that changes will
     have to be made anyway).
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) In asn1_d2i_read_bio() repeatedly call BIO_read() until all content
     octets have been read, EOF or an error occurs. Without this change
     some truncated ASN1 structures will not produce an error.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Disable Heimdal support, since it hasn't been fully implemented.
     Still give the possibility to force the use of Heimdal, but with
     warnings and a request that patches get sent to openssl-dev.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Add the VC-CE target, introduce the WINCE sysname, and add
     INSTALL.WCE and appropriate conditionals to make it build.
     [Steven Reddie <smr@essemer.com.au> via Richard Levitte]

  *) Change the DLL names for Cygwin to cygcrypto-x.y.z.dll and
     cygssl-x.y.z.dll, where x, y and z are the major, minor and
     edit numbers of the version.
     [Corinna Vinschen <vinschen@redhat.com> and Richard Levitte]

  *) Introduce safe string copy and catenation functions
     (BUF_strlcpy() and BUF_strlcat()).
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS) and Richard Levitte]

  *) Avoid using fixed-size buffers for one-line DNs.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Add BUF_MEM_grow_clean() to avoid information leakage when
     resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Avoid using fixed size buffers for configuration file location.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Avoid filename truncation for various CA files.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Use sizeof in preference to magic numbers.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Avoid filename truncation in cert requests.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Add assertions to check for (supposedly impossible) buffer
     overflows.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Don't cache truncated DNS entries in the local cache (this could
     potentially lead to a spoofing attack).
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Fix various buffers to be large enough for hex/decimal
     representations in a platform independent manner.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Add CRYPTO_realloc_clean() to avoid information leakage when
     resizing buffers containing secrets, and use where appropriate.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Add BIO_indent() to avoid much slightly worrying code to do
     indents.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Convert sprintf()/BIO_puts() to BIO_printf().
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) buffer_gets() could terminate with the buffer only half
     full. Fixed.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Add assertions to prevent user-supplied crypto functions from
     overflowing internal buffers by having large block sizes, etc.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) New OPENSSL_assert() macro (similar to assert(), but enabled
     unconditionally).
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Eliminate unused copy of key in RC4.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized buffers for IV in pem.h.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Fix off-by-one error in EGD path.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) If RANDFILE path is too long, ignore instead of truncating.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Eliminate unused and incorrectly sized X.509 structure
     CBCParameter.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Eliminate unused and dangerous function knumber().
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Eliminate unused and dangerous structure, KSSL_ERR.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Protect against overlong session ID context length in an encoded
     session object. Since these are local, this does not appear to be
     exploitable.
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Change from security patch (see 0.9.6e below) that did not affect
     the 0.9.6 release series:

     Remote buffer overflow in SSL3 protocol - an attacker could
     supply an oversized master key in Kerberos-enabled versions.
     (CVE-2002-0657)
     [Ben Laurie (CHATS)]

  *) Change the SSL kerb5 codes to match RFC 2712.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Make -nameopt work fully for req and add -reqopt switch.
     [Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>, Steve Henson]

  *) The "block size" for block ciphers in CFB and OFB mode should be 1.
     [Steve Henson, reported by Yngve Nysaeter Pettersen <yngve@opera.com>]

  *) Make sure tests can be performed even if the corresponding algorithms
     have been removed entirely.  This was also the last step to make
     OpenSSL compilable with DJGPP under all reasonable conditions.
     [Richard Levitte, Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>]

  *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
     to allow version independent disabling of normally unselected ciphers,
     which may be activated as a side-effect of selecting a single cipher.

     (E.g., cipher list string "RSA" enables ciphersuites that are left
     out of "ALL" because they do not provide symmetric encryption.
     "RSA:!COMPLEMEMENTOFALL" avoids these unsafe ciphersuites.)
     [Lutz Jaenicke, Bodo Moeller]

  *) Add appropriate support for separate platform-dependent build
     directories.  The recommended way to make a platform-dependent
     build directory is the following (tested on Linux), maybe with
     some local tweaks:

        # Place yourself outside of the OpenSSL source tree.  In
        # this example, the environment variable OPENSSL_SOURCE
        # is assumed to contain the absolute OpenSSL source directory.
        mkdir -p objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
        cd objtree/"`uname -s`-`uname -r`-`uname -m`"
        (cd $OPENSSL_SOURCE; find . -type f) | while read F; do
                mkdir -p `dirname $F`
                ln -s $OPENSSL_SOURCE/$F $F
        done

     To be absolutely sure not to disturb the source tree, a "make clean"
     is a good thing.  If it isn't successful, don't worry about it,
     it probably means the source directory is very clean.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Make sure any ENGINE control commands make local copies of string
     pointers passed to them whenever necessary. Otherwise it is possible
     the caller may have overwritten (or deallocated) the original string
     data when a later ENGINE operation tries to use the stored values.
     [Götz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>]

  *) Improve diagnostics in file reading and command-line digests.
     [Ben Laurie aided and abetted by Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com>]

  *) Add AES modes CFB and OFB to the object database.  Correct an
     error in AES-CFB decryption.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Remove most calls to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() in evp_enc.c, this
     allows existing EVP_CIPHER_CTX structures to be reused after
     calling EVP_*Final(). This behaviour is used by encryption
     BIOs and some applications. This has the side effect that
     applications must explicitly clean up cipher contexts with
     EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() or they will leak memory.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Check the values of dna and dnb in bn_mul_recursive before calling
     bn_mul_comba (a non zero value means the a or b arrays do not contain
     n2 elements) and fallback to bn_mul_normal if either is not zero.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Fix escaping of non-ASCII characters when using the -subj option
     of the "openssl req" command line tool. (Robert Joop <joop@fokus.gmd.de>)
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Make object definitions compliant to LDAP (RFC2256): SN is the short
     form for "surname", serialNumber has no short form.
     Use "mail" as the short name for "rfc822Mailbox" according to RFC2798;
     therefore remove "mail" short name for "internet 7".
     The OID for unique identifiers in X509 certificates is
     x500UniqueIdentifier, not uniqueIdentifier.
     Some more OID additions. (Michael Bell <michael.bell@rz.hu-berlin.de>)
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Add an "init" command to the ENGINE config module and auto initialize
     ENGINEs. Without any "init" command the ENGINE will be initialized
     after all ctrl commands have been executed on it. If init=1 the
     ENGINE is initialized at that point (ctrls before that point are run
     on the uninitialized ENGINE and after on the initialized one). If
     init=0 then the ENGINE will not be initialized at all.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Fix the 'app_verify_callback' interface so that the user-defined
     argument is actually passed to the callback: In the
     SSL_CTX_set_cert_verify_callback() prototype, the callback
     declaration has been changed from
          int (*cb)()
     into
          int (*cb)(X509_STORE_CTX *,void *);
     in ssl_verify_cert_chain (ssl/ssl_cert.c), the call
          i=s->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 <smetters@parc.xerox.com>]

  *) Added the '4758cca' ENGINE to support IBM 4758 cards.
     [Maurice Gittens <maurice@gittens.nl>, touchups by Geoff Thorpe]

  *) 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 <stephen@sprunk.org> 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]

  *) Support for crypto accelerator cards from Accelerated Encryption
     Processing, www.aep.ie.  (Use engine 'aep')
     The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted/corrected
     to work with the new engine framework.
     [AEP Inc. and Richard Levitte]

  *) Support for SureWare crypto accelerator cards from Baltimore
     Technologies.  (Use engine 'sureware')
     The support was copied from 0.9.6c [engine] and adapted
     to work with the new engine framework.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Have the CHIL engine fork-safe (as defined by nCipher) and actually
     make the newer ENGINE framework commands for the CHIL engine work.
     [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> and Richard Levitte]

  *) Make it possible to produce shared libraries on ReliantUNIX.
     [Robert Dahlem <Robert.Dahlem@ffm2.siemens.de> via Richard Levitte]

  *) Add the configuration target debug-linux-ppro.
     Make 'openssl rsa' use the general key loading routines
     implemented in apps.c, and make those routines able to
     handle the key format FORMAT_NETSCAPE and the variant
     FORMAT_IISSGC.
     [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]

 *) Fix a crashbug and a logic bug in hwcrhk_load_pubkey().
     [Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee> via Richard Levitte]

  *) Add -keyform to rsautl, and document -engine.
     [Richard Levitte, inspired by Toomas Kiisk <vix@cyber.ee>]

  *) Change BIO_new_file (crypto/bio/bss_file.c) to use new
     BIO_R_NO_SUCH_FILE error code rather than the generic
     ERR_R_SYS_LIB error code if fopen() fails with ENOENT.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Add new functions
          ERR_peek_last_error
          ERR_peek_last_error_line
          ERR_peek_last_error_line_data.
     These are similar to
          ERR_peek_error
          ERR_peek_error_line
          ERR_peek_error_line_data,
     but report on the latest error recorded rather than the first one
     still in the error queue.
     [Ben Laurie, Bodo Moeller]

  *) default_algorithms option in ENGINE config module. This allows things
     like:
     default_algorithms = ALL
     default_algorithms = RSA, DSA, RAND, CIPHERS, DIGESTS
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Preliminary ENGINE config module.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) New experimental application configuration code.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Change the AES code to follow the same name structure as all other
     symmetric ciphers, and behave the same way.  Move everything to
     the directory crypto/aes, thereby obsoleting crypto/rijndael.
     [Stephen Sprunk <stephen@sprunk.org> and Richard Levitte]

  *) SECURITY: remove unsafe setjmp/signal interaction from ui_openssl.c.
     [Ben Laurie and Theo de Raadt]

  *) Add option to output public keys in req command.
     [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]

  *) Use wNAFs in EC_POINTs_mul() for improved efficiency
     (up to about 10% better than before for P-192 and P-224).
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) New functions/macros

          SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback(ctx, cb)
          SSL_CTX_set_msg_callback_arg(ctx, arg)
          SSL_set_msg_callback(ssl, cb)
          SSL_set_msg_callback_arg(ssl, arg)

     to request calling a callback function

          void cb(int write_p, int version, int content_type,
                  const void *buf, size_t len, SSL *ssl, void *arg)

     whenever a protocol message has been completely received
     (write_p == 0) or sent (write_p == 1).  Here 'version' is the
     protocol version  according to which the SSL library interprets
     the current protocol message (SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION, or
     TLS1_VERSION).  'content_type' is 0 in the case of SSL 2.0, or
     the content type as defined in the SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol
     specification (change_cipher_spec(20), alert(21), handshake(22)).
     'buf' and 'len' point to the actual message, 'ssl' to the
     SSL object, and 'arg' is the application-defined value set by
     SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().

     'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server' have new '-msg' options
     to enable a callback that displays all protocol messages.
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) Change the shared library support so shared libraries are built as
     soon as the corresponding static library is finished, and thereby get
     openssl and the test programs linked against the shared library.
     This still only happens when the keyword "shard" has been given to
     the configuration scripts.

     NOTE: shared library support is still an experimental thing, and
     backward binary compatibility is still not guaranteed.
     ["Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@ds2.pg.gda.pl> and Richard Levitte]

  *) Add support for Subject Information Access extension.
     [Peter Sylvester <Peter.Sylvester@EdelWeb.fr>]

  *) Make BUF_MEM_grow() behaviour more consistent: Initialise to zero
     additional bytes when new memory had to be allocated, not just
     when reusing an existing buffer.
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) New command line and configuration option 'utf8' for the req command.
     This allows field values to be specified as UTF8 strings.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Add -multi and -mr options to "openssl speed" - giving multiple parallel
     runs for the former and machine-readable output for the latter.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Add '-noemailDN' option to 'openssl ca'.  This prevents inclusion
     of the e-mail address in the DN (i.e., it will go into a certificate
     extension only).  The new configuration file option 'email_in_dn = no'
     has the same effect.
     [Massimiliano Pala madwolf@openca.org]

  *) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
     with DES_ instead.  Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
     but are named _ossl_old_des_*.  Finally, add macros that map the
     des_* symbols to the corresponding _ossl_old_des_* if libdes
     compatibility is desired.  If OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility is
     desired, the des_* symbols will be mapped to DES_*, with one
     exception.

     Since we provide two compatibility mappings, the user needs to
     define the macro OPENSSL_DES_LIBDES_COMPATIBILITY if libdes
     compatibility is desired.  The default (i.e., when that macro
     isn't defined) is OpenSSL 0.9.6c compatibility.

     There are also macros that enable and disable the support of old
     des functions altogether.  Those are OPENSSL_ENABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT
     and OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT.  If none or both of those
     are defined, the default will apply: to support the old des routines.

     In either case, one must include openssl/des.h to get the correct
     definitions.  Do not try to just include openssl/des_old.h, that
     won't work.

     NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one.  Software
     authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions.  Some
     time in the future, des_old.h and the libdes compatibility functions
     will be disable (i.e. OPENSSL_DISABLE_OLD_DES_SUPPORT will be the
     default), and then completely removed.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Test for certificates which contain unsupported critical extensions.
     If such a certificate is found during a verify operation it is
     rejected by default: this behaviour can be overridden by either
     handling the new error X509_V_ERR_UNHANDLED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION or
     by setting the verify flag X509_V_FLAG_IGNORE_CRITICAL. A new function
     X509_supported_extension() has also been added which returns 1 if a
     particular extension is supported.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Modify the behaviour of EVP cipher functions in similar way to digests
     to retain compatibility with existing code.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Modify the behaviour of EVP_DigestInit() and EVP_DigestFinal() to retain
     compatibility with existing code. In particular the 'ctx' parameter does
     not have to be to be initialized before the call to EVP_DigestInit() and
     it is tidied up after a call to EVP_DigestFinal(). New function
     EVP_DigestFinal_ex() which does not tidy up the ctx. Similarly function
     EVP_MD_CTX_copy() changed to not require the destination to be
     initialized valid and new function EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() added which
     requires the destination to be valid.

     Modify all the OpenSSL digest calls to use EVP_DigestInit_ex(),
     EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex().
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Change ssl3_get_message (ssl/s3_both.c) and the functions using it
     so that complete 'Handshake' protocol structures are kept in memory
     instead of overwriting 'msg_type' and 'length' with 'body' data.
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) Add an implementation of SSL_add_dir_cert_subjects_to_stack for Win32.
     [Massimo Santin via Richard Levitte]

  *) Major restructuring to the underlying ENGINE code. This includes
     reduction of linker bloat, separation of pure "ENGINE" manipulation
     (initialisation, etc) from functionality dealing with implementations
     of specific crypto interfaces. This change also introduces integrated
     support for symmetric ciphers and digest implementations - so ENGINEs
     can now accelerate these by providing EVP_CIPHER and EVP_MD
     implementations of their own. This is detailed in crypto/engine/README
     as it couldn't be adequately described here. However, there are a few
     API changes worth noting - some RSA, DSA, DH, and RAND functions that
     were changed in the original introduction of ENGINE code have now
     reverted back - the hooking from this code to ENGINE is now a good
     deal more passive and at run-time, operations deal directly with
     RSA_METHODs, DSA_METHODs (etc) as they did before, rather than
     dereferencing through an ENGINE pointer any more. Also, the ENGINE
     functions dealing with BN_MOD_EXP[_CRT] handlers have been removed -
     they were not being used by the framework as there is no concept of a
     BIGNUM_METHOD and they could not be generalised to the new
     'ENGINE_TABLE' mechanism that underlies the new code. Similarly,
     ENGINE_cpy() has been removed as it cannot be consistently defined in
     the new code.
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Change ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME_check() to allow fractional seconds.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Change mkdef.pl to sort symbols that get the same entry number,
     and make sure the automatically generated functions ERR_load_*
     become part of libeay.num as well.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) New function SSL_renegotiate_pending().  This returns true once
     renegotiation has been requested (either SSL_renegotiate() call
     or HelloRequest/ClientHello received from the peer) and becomes
     false once a handshake has been completed.
     (For servers, SSL_renegotiate() followed by SSL_do_handshake()
     sends a HelloRequest, but does not ensure that a handshake takes
     place.  SSL_renegotiate_pending() is useful for checking if the
     client has followed the request.)
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) New SSL option SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION.
     By default, clients may request session resumption even during
     renegotiation (if session ID contexts permit); with this option,
     session resumption is possible only in the first handshake.

     SSL_OP_ALL is now 0x00000FFFL instead of 0x000FFFFFL.  This makes
     more bits available for options that should not be part of
     SSL_OP_ALL (such as SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION).
     [Bodo Moeller]

  *) Add some demos for certificate and certificate request creation.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Make maximum certificate chain size accepted from the peer application
     settable (SSL*_get/set_max_cert_list()), as proposed by
     "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov>.
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Add support for shared libraries for Unixware-7
     (Boyd Lynn Gerber <gerberb@zenez.com>).
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Add a "destroy" handler to ENGINEs that allows structural cleanup to
     be done prior to destruction. Use this to unload error strings from
     ENGINEs that load their own error strings. NB: This adds two new API
     functions to "get" and "set" this destroy handler in an ENGINE.
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Alter all existing ENGINE implementations (except "openssl" and
     "openbsd") to dynamically instantiate their own error strings. This
     makes them more flexible to be built both as statically-linked ENGINEs
     and self-contained shared-libraries loadable via the "dynamic" ENGINE.
     Also, add stub code to each that makes building them as self-contained
     shared-libraries easier (see README.ENGINE).
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Add a "dynamic" ENGINE that provides a mechanism for binding ENGINE
     implementations into applications that are completely implemented in
     self-contained shared-libraries. The "dynamic" ENGINE exposes control
     commands that can be used to configure what shared-library to load and
     to control aspects of the way it is handled. Also, made an update to
     the README.ENGINE file that brings its information up-to-date and
     provides some information and instructions on the "dynamic" ENGINE
     (ie. how to use it, how to build "dynamic"-loadable ENGINEs, etc).
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Make it possible to unload ranges of ERR strings with a new
     "ERR_unload_strings" function.
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Add a copy() function to EVP_MD.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Make EVP_MD routines take a context pointer instead of just the
     md_data void pointer.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Add flags to EVP_MD and EVP_MD_CTX. EVP_MD_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates
     that the digest can only process a single chunk of data
     (typically because it is provided by a piece of
     hardware). EVP_MD_CTX_FLAG_ONESHOT indicates that the application
     is only going to provide a single chunk of data, and hence the
     framework needn't accumulate the data for oneshot drivers.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) As with "ERR", make it possible to replace the underlying "ex_data"
     functions. This change also alters the storage and management of global
     ex_data state - it's now all inside ex_data.c and all "class" code (eg.
     RSA, BIO, SSL_CTX, etc) no longer stores its own STACKS and per-class
     index counters. The API functions that use this state have been changed
     to take a "class_index" rather than pointers to the class's local STACK
     and counter, and there is now an API function to dynamically create new
     classes. This centralisation allows us to (a) plug a lot of the
     thread-safety problems that existed, and (b) makes it possible to clean
     up all allocated state using "CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data()". W.r.t. (b)
     such data would previously have always leaked in application code and
     workarounds were in place to make the memory debugging turn a blind eye
     to it. Application code that doesn't use this new function will still
     leak as before, but their memory debugging output will announce it now
     rather than letting it slide.

     Besides the addition of CRYPTO_cleanup_all_ex_data(), another API change
     induced by the "ex_data" overhaul is that X509_STORE_CTX_init() now
     has a return value to indicate success or failure.
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Make it possible to replace the underlying "ERR" functions such that the
     global state (2 LHASH tables and 2 locks) is only used by the "default"
     implementation. This change also adds two functions to "get" and "set"
     the implementation prior to it being automatically set the first time
     any other ERR function takes place. Ie. an application can call "get",
     pass the return value to a module it has just loaded, and that module
     can call its own "set" function using that value. This means the
     module's "ERR" operations will use (and modify) the error state in the
     application and not in its own statically linked copy of OpenSSL code.
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Give DH, DSA, and RSA types their own "**_up_ref()" function to increment
     reference counts. This performs normal REF_PRINT/REF_CHECK macros on
     the operation, and provides a more encapsulated way for external code
     (crypto/evp/ and ssl/) to do this. Also changed the evp and ssl code
     to use these functions rather than manually incrementing the counts.

     Also rename "DSO_up()" function to more descriptive "DSO_up_ref()".
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Add EVP test program.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Add symmetric cipher support to ENGINE. Expect the API to change!
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) New CRL functions: X509_CRL_set_version(), X509_CRL_set_issuer_name()
     X509_CRL_set_lastUpdate(), X509_CRL_set_nextUpdate(), X509_CRL_sort(),
     X509_REVOKED_set_serialNumber(), and X509_REVOKED_set_revocationDate().
     These allow a CRL to be built without having to access X509_CRL fields
     directly. Modify 'ca' application to use new functions.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Move SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG out of the SSL_OP_ALL list of recommended
     bug workarounds. Rollback attack detection is a security feature.
     The problem will only arise on OpenSSL servers when TLSv1 is not
     available (sslv3_server_method() or SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1).
     Software authors not wanting to support TLSv1 will have special reasons
     for their choice and can explicitly enable this option.
     [Bodo Moeller, Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) Rationalise EVP so it can be extended: don't include a union of
     cipher/digest structures, add init/cleanup functions for EVP_MD_CTX
     (similar to those existing for EVP_CIPHER_CTX).
     Usage example:

         EVP_MD_CTX md;

         EVP_MD_CTX_init(&md);             /* new function call */
         EVP_DigestInit(&md, EVP_sha1());
         EVP_DigestUpdate(&md, in, len);
         EVP_DigestFinal(&md, out, NULL);
         EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup(&md);          /* new function call */

     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Make DES key schedule conform to the usual scheme, as well as
     correcting its structure. This means that calls to DES functions
     now have to pass a pointer to a des_key_schedule instead of a
     plain des_key_schedule (which was actually always a pointer
     anyway): E.g.,

         des_key_schedule ks;

         des_set_key_checked(..., &ks);
         des_ncbc_encrypt(..., &ks, ...);

     (Note that a later change renames 'des_...' into 'DES_...'.)
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Initial reduction of linker bloat: the use of some functions, such as
     PEM causes large amounts of unused functions to be linked in due to
     poor organisation. For example pem_all.c contains every PEM function
     which has a knock on effect of linking in large amounts of (unused)
     ASN1 code. Grouping together similar functions and splitting unrelated
     functions prevents this.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Cleanup of EVP macros.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Change historical references to {NID,SN,LN}_des_ede and ede3 to add the
     correct _ecb suffix.
     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Add initial OCSP responder support to ocsp application. The
     revocation information is handled using the text based index
     use by the ca application. The responder can either handle
     requests generated internally, supplied in files (for example
     via a CGI script) or using an internal minimal server.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Add configuration choices to get zlib compression for TLS.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Changes to Kerberos SSL for RFC 2712 compliance:
     1.  Implemented real KerberosWrapper, instead of just using
         KRB5 AP_REQ message.  [Thanks to Simon Wilkinson <sxw@sxw.org.uk>]
     2.  Implemented optional authenticator field of KerberosWrapper.

     Added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for Kerberos ticket, ap_req,
     and authenticator structs; see crypto/krb5/.

     Generalized Kerberos calls to support multiple Kerberos libraries.
     [Vern Staats <staatsvr@asc.hpc.mil>,
      Jeffrey Altman <jaltman@columbia.edu>
      via Richard Levitte]

  *) Cause 'openssl speed' to use fully hard-coded DSA keys as it
     already does with RSA. testdsa.h now has 'priv_key/pub_key'
     values for each of the key sizes rather than having just
     parameters (and 'speed' generating keys each time).
     [Geoff Thorpe]

  *) Speed up EVP routines.

     [Ben Laurie]

  *) Added the OS2-EMX target.
     ["Brian Havard" <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> and Richard Levitte]

  *) Rewrite apps to use NCONF routines instead of the old CONF. New functions
     to support NCONF routines in extension code. New function CONF_set_nconf()
     to allow functions which take an NCONF to also handle the old LHASH
     structure: this means that the old CONF compatible routines can be
     retained (in particular wrt extensions) without having to duplicate the
     code. New function X509V3_add_ext_nconf_sk to add extensions to a stack.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms for inner control
     and with possibilities to have yes/no kind of prompts.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Change all calls to low level digest routines in the library and
     applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
     don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
     [Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com>, Steve Henson]

  *) Add the possibility to control engines through control names but with
     arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
     Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
     function pointer.  NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with earlier
     versions of OpenSSL [engine].
     Adapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card insertion
     callback.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Enhance the general user interface with mechanisms to better support
     dialog box interfaces, application-defined prompts, the possibility
     to use defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else)
     and interrupts/cancellations.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Tidy up PKCS#12 attribute handling. Add support for the CSP name
     attribute in PKCS#12 files, add new -CSP option to pkcs12 utility.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Fix a memory leak in 'sk_dup()' in the case reallocation fails. (Also
     tidy up some unnecessarily weird code in 'sk_new()').
     [Geoff, reported by Diego Tartara <dtartara@novamens.com>]

  *) Change the key loading routines for ENGINEs to use the same kind
     callback (pem_password_cb) as all other routines that need this
     kind of callback.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Increase ENTROPY_NEEDED to 32 bytes, as Rijndael can operate with
     256 bit (=32 byte) keys. Of course seeding with more entropy bytes
     than this minimum value is recommended.
     [Lutz Jaenicke]

  *) New random seeder for OpenVMS, using the system process statistics
     that are easily reachable.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Windows apparently can't transparently handle global
     variables defined in DLLs. Initialisations such as:

        const ASN1_ITEM *it = &ASN1_INTEGER_it;

     won't compile. This is used by the any applications that need to
     declare their own ASN1 modules. This was fixed by adding the option
     EXPORT_VAR_AS_FN to all Win32 platforms, although this isn't strictly
     needed for static libraries under Win32.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) New functions X509_PURPOSE_set() and X509_TRUST_set() to handle
     setting of purpose and trust fields. New X509_STORE trust and
     purpose functions and tidy up setting in other SSL functions.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Add copies of X509_STORE_CTX fields and callbacks to X509_STORE
     structure. These are inherited by X509_STORE_CTX when it is
     initialised. This allows various defaults to be set in the
     X509_STORE structure (such as flags for CRL checking and custom
     purpose or trust settings) for functions which only use X509_STORE_CTX
     internally such as S/MIME.

     Modify X509_STORE_CTX_purpose_inherit() so it only sets purposes and
     trust settings if they are not set in X509_STORE. This allows X509_STORE
     purposes and trust (in S/MIME for example) to override any set by default.

     Add command line options for CRL checking to smime, s_client and s_server
     applications.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Initial CRL based revocation checking. If the CRL checking flag(s)
     are set then the CRL is looked up in the X509_STORE structure and
     its validity and signature checked, then if the certificate is found
     in the CRL the verify fails with a revoked error.

     Various new CRL related callbacks added to X509_STORE_CTX structure.

     Command line options added to 'verify' application to support this.

     This needs some additional work, such as being able to handle multiple
     CRLs with different times, extension based lookup (rather than just
     by subject name) and ultimately more complete V2 CRL extension
     handling.
     [Steve Henson]

  *) Add a general user interface API (crypto/ui/).  This is designed
     to replace things like des_read_password and friends (backward
     compatibility functions using this new API are provided).
     The purpose is to remove prompting functions from the DES code
     section as well as provide for prompting through dialog boxes in
     a window system and the like.
     [Richard Levitte]

  *) Add "ex_data" support to ENGINE so implementations can add state at a
     per-structure level rather than having to store it globally.
     [Geoff]

  *) Make it possible for ENGINE structures to be copied when retrieved by
     ENGINE_by_id() if the ENGINE specifies a new flag: ENGINE_FLAGS_BY_ID_COPY.
     This causes the "original" ENGINE structure to act like a template,
     analogous to the RSA vs. RSA_METHOD type of separation. Because of this
     operational state can be localised to each ENGINE structure, despite the
