Changes between 0.9.6e and 0.9.7 [XX xxx 2002]
- *) Add cipher selection rules COMPLEMENTOFALL and COMPLENENTOFDEFAULT
+ *) 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
