-16-Mar-98
- - Patch for Cray T90 from Wayne Schroeder <schroede@SDSC.EDU>
- - Lots and lots of changes
-
-29-Jan-98
- - ASN1_BIT_STRING_set_bit()/ASN1_BIT_STRING_get_bit() from
- Goetz Babin-Ebell <babinebell@trustcenter.de>.
- - SSL_version() now returns SSL2_VERSION, SSL3_VERSION or
- TLS1_VERSION.
-
-7-Jan-98
- - Finally reworked the cipher string to ciphers again, so it
- works correctly
- - All the app_data stuff is now ex_data with funcion calls to access.
- The index is supplied by a function and 'methods' can be setup
- for the types that are called on XXX_new/XXX_free. This lets
- applications get notified on creation and destruction. Some of
- the RSA methods could be implemented this way and I may do so.
- - Oh yes, SSL under perl5 is working at the basic level.
-
-15-Dec-97
- - Warning - the gethostbyname cache is not fully thread safe,
- but it should work well enough.
- - Major internal reworking of the app_data stuff. More functions
- but if you were accessing ->app_data directly, things will
- stop working.
- - The perlv5 stuff is working. Currently on message digests,
- ciphers and the bignum library.
-
-9-Dec-97
- - Modified re-negotiation so that server initated re-neg
- will cause a SSL_read() to return -1 should retry.
- The danger otherwise was that the server and the
- client could end up both trying to read when using non-blocking
- sockets.
-
-4-Dec-97
- - Lots of small changes
- - Fix for binaray mode in Windows for the FILE BIO, thanks to
- Bob Denny <rdenny@dc3.com>
-
-17-Nov-97
- - Quite a few internal cleanups, (removal of errno, and using macros
- defined in e_os.h).
- - A bug in ca.c, pointed out by yasuyuki-ito@d-cruise.co.jp, where
- the automactic naming out output files was being stuffed up.
-
-29-Oct-97
- - The Cast5 cipher has been added. MD5 and SHA-1 are now in assember
- for x86.
-
-21-Oct-97
- - Fixed a bug in the BIO_gethostbyname() cache.
-
-15-Oct-97
- - cbc mode for blowfish/des/3des is now in assember. Blowfish asm
- has also been improved. At this point in time, on the pentium,
- md5 is %80 faster, the unoptimesed sha-1 is %79 faster,
- des-cbc is %28 faster, des-ede3-cbc is %9 faster and blowfish-cbc
- is %62 faster.
-
-12-Oct-97
- - MEM_BUF_grow() has been fixed so that it always sets the buf->length
- to the value we are 'growing' to. Think of MEM_BUF_grow() as the
- way to set the length value correctly.
-
-10-Oct-97
- - I now hash for certificate lookup on the raw DER encoded RDN (md5).
- This breaks things again :-(. This is efficent since I cache
- the DER encoding of the RDN.
- - The text DN now puts in the numeric OID instead of UNKNOWN.
- - req can now process arbitary OIDs in the config file.
- - I've been implementing md5 in x86 asm, much faster :-).
- - Started sha1 in x86 asm, needs more work.
- - Quite a few speedups in the BN stuff. RSA public operation
- has been made faster by caching the BN_MONT_CTX structure.
- The calulating of the Ai where A*Ai === 1 mod m was rather
- expensive. Basically a 40-50% speedup on public operations.
- The RSA speedup is now 15% on pentiums and %20 on pentium
- pro.
-
-30-Sep-97
- - After doing some profiling, I added x86 adm for bn_add_words(),
- which just adds 2 arrays of longs together. A %10 speedup
- for 512 and 1024 bit RSA on the pentium pro.
-
-29-Sep-97
- - Converted the x86 bignum assembler to us the perl scripts
- for generation.
-
-23-Sep-97
- - If SSL_set_session() is passed a NULL session, it now clears the
- current session-id.
-
-22-Sep-97
- - Added a '-ss_cert file' to apps/ca.c. This will sign selfsigned
- certificates.
- - Bug in crypto/evp/encode.c where by decoding of 65 base64
- encoded lines, one line at a time (via a memory BIO) would report
- EOF after the first line was decoded.
- - Fix in X509_find_by_issuer_and_serial() from
- Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>
-
-19-Sep-97
- - NO_FP_API and NO_STDIO added.
- - Put in sh config command. It auto runs Configure with the correct
- parameters.
-
-18-Sep-97
- - Fix x509.c so if a DSA cert has different parameters to its parent,
- they are left in place. Not tested yet.
-
-16-Sep-97
- - ssl_create_cipher_list() had some bugs, fixes from
- Patrick Eisenacher <eisenach@stud.uni-frankfurt.de>
- - Fixed a bug in the Base64 BIO, where it would return 1 instead
- of -1 when end of input was encountered but should retry.
- Basically a Base64/Memory BIO interaction problem.
- - Added a HMAC set of functions in preporarion for TLS work.
-
-15-Sep-97
- - Top level makefile tweak - Cameron Simpson <cs@zip.com.au>
- - Prime generation spead up %25 (512 bit prime, pentium pro linux)
- by using montgomery multiplication in the prime number test.
-
-11-Sep-97
- - Ugly bug in ssl3_write_bytes(). Basically if application land
- does a SSL_write(ssl,buf,len) where len > 16k, the SSLv3 write code
- did not check the size and tried to copy the entire buffer.
- This would tend to cause memory overwrites since SSLv3 has
- a maximum packet size of 16k. If your program uses
- buffers <= 16k, you would probably never see this problem.
- - Fixed a new errors that were cause by malloc() not returning
- 0 initialised memory..
- - SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_CA_DN_BUG was being switched on when using
- SSL_CTX_set_options(ssl_ctx,SSL_OP_ALL); which was a bad thing
- since this flags stops SSLeay being able to handle client
- cert requests correctly.
-
-08-Sep-97
- - SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP option added. When switched
- on, the SSL server routines will not use a SSL_SESSION that is
- held in it's cache. This in intended to be used with the session-id
- callbacks so that while the session-ids are still stored in the
- cache, the decision to use them and how to look them up can be
- done by the callbacks. The are the 'new', 'get' and 'remove'
- callbacks. This can be used to determine the session-id
- to use depending on information like which port/host the connection
- is coming from. Since the are also SSL_SESSION_set_app_data() and
- SSL_SESSION_get_app_data() functions, the application can hold
- information against the session-id as well.
-
-03-Sep-97
- - Added lookup of CRLs to the by_dir method,
- X509_load_crl_file() also added. Basically it means you can
- lookup CRLs via the same system used to lookup certificates.
- - Changed things so that the X509_NAME structure can contain
- ASN.1 BIT_STRINGS which is required for the unique
- identifier OID.
- - Fixed some problems with the auto flushing of the session-id
- cache. It was not occuring on the server side.
-
-02-Sep-97
- - Added SSL_CTX_sess_cache_size(SSL_CTX *ctx,unsigned long size)
- which is the maximum number of entries allowed in the
- session-id cache. This is enforced with a simple FIFO list.
- The default size is 20*1024 entries which is rather large :-).
- The Timeout code is still always operating.
-
-01-Sep-97
- - Added an argument to all the 'generate private key/prime`
- callbacks. It is the last parameter so this should not
- break existing code but it is needed for C++.
- - Added the BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL flag for the BIO_f_base64()
- BIO. This lets the BIO read and write base64 encoded data
- without inserting or looking for '\n' characters. The '-A'
- flag turns this on when using apps/enc.c.
- - RSA_NO_PADDING added to help BSAFE functionality. This is a
- very dangerous thing to use, since RSA private key
- operations without random padding bytes (as PKCS#1 adds) can
- be attacked such that the private key can be revealed.
- - ASN.1 bug and rc2-40-cbc and rc4-40 added by
- Dr Stephen Henson <shenson@bigfoot.com>
-
-31-Aug-97 (stuff added while I was away)
- - Linux pthreads by Tim Hudson (tjh@cryptsoft.com).
- - RSA_flags() added allowing bypass of pub/priv match check
- in ssl/ssl_rsa.c - Tim Hudson.
- - A few minor bugs.
-
-SSLeay 0.8.1 released.
-
-19-Jul-97
- - Server side initated dynamic renegotiation is broken. I will fix
- it when I get back from holidays.
-
-15-Jul-97
- - Quite a few small changes.
- - INVALID_SOCKET usage cleanups from Alex Kiernan <alex@hisoft.co.uk>
-
-09-Jul-97
- - Added 2 new values to the SSL info callback.
- SSL_CB_START which is passed when the SSL protocol is started
- and SSL_CB_DONE when it has finished sucsessfully.
-
-08-Jul-97
- - Fixed a few bugs problems in apps/req.c and crypto/asn1/x_pkey.c
- that related to DSA public/private keys.
- - Added all the relevent PEM and normal IO functions to support
- reading and writing RSAPublic keys.
- - Changed makefiles to use ${AR} instead of 'ar r'
-
-07-Jul-97
- - Error in ERR_remove_state() that would leave a dangling reference
- to a free()ed location - thanks to Alex Kiernan <alex@hisoft.co.uk>
- - s_client now prints the X509_NAMEs passed from the server
- when requesting a client cert.
- - Added a ssl->type, which is one of SSL_ST_CONNECT or
- SSL_ST_ACCEPT. I had to add it so I could tell if I was
- a connect or an accept after the handshake had finished.
- - SSL_get_client_CA_list(SSL *s) now returns the CA names
- passed by the server if called by a client side SSL.
-
-05-Jul-97
- - Bug in X509_NAME_get_text_by_OBJ(), looking starting at index
- 0, not -1 :-( Fix from Tim Hudson (tjh@cryptsoft.com).
-
-04-Jul-97
- - Fixed some things in X509_NAME_add_entry(), thanks to
- Matthew Donald <matthew@world.net>.
- - I had a look at the cipher section and though that it was a
- bit confused, so I've changed it.
- - I was not setting up the RC4-64-MD5 cipher correctly. It is
- a MS special that appears in exported MS Money.
- - Error in all my DH ciphers. Section 7.6.7.3 of the SSLv3
- spec. I was missing the two byte length header for the
- ClientDiffieHellmanPublic value. This is a packet sent from
- the client to the server. The SSL_OP_SSLEAY_080_CLIENT_DH_BUG
- option will enable SSLeay server side SSLv3 accept either
- the correct or my 080 packet format.
- - Fixed a few typos in crypto/pem.org.
-
-02-Jul-97
- - Alias mapping for EVP_get_(digest|cipher)byname is now
- performed before a lookup for actual cipher. This means
- that an alias can be used to 're-direct' a cipher or a
- digest.
- - ASN1_read_bio() had a bug that only showed up when using a
- memory BIO. When EOF is reached in the memory BIO, it is
- reported as a -1 with BIO_should_retry() set to true.
-
-01-Jul-97
- - Fixed an error in X509_verify_cert() caused by my
- miss-understanding how 'do { contine } while(0);' works.
- Thanks to Emil Sit <sit@mit.edu> for educating me :-)
-
-30-Jun-97
- - Base64 decoding error. If the last data line did not end with
- a '=', sometimes extra data would be returned.
- - Another 'cut and paste' bug in x509.c related to setting up the
- STDout BIO.
-
-27-Jun-97
- - apps/ciphers.c was not printing due to an editing error.
- - Alex Kiernan <alex@hisoft.co.uk> send in a nice fix for
- a library build error in util/mk1mf.pl
-
-26-Jun-97
- - Still did not have the auto 'experimental' code removal
- script correct.
- - A few header tweaks for Watcom 11.0 under Win32 from
- Rolf Lindemann <Lindemann@maz-hh.de>
- - 0 length OCTET_STRING bug in asn1_parse
- - A minor fix with an non-existent function in the MS .def files.
- - A few changes to the PKCS7 stuff.
-
-25-Jun-97
- SSLeay 0.8.0 finally it gets released.
-
-24-Jun-97
- Added a SSL_OP_EPHEMERAL_RSA option which causes all SSLv3 RSA keys to
- use a temporary RSA key. This is experimental and needs some more work.
- Fixed a few Win16 build problems.
-
-23-Jun-97
- SSLv3 bug. I was not doing the 'lookup' of the CERT structure
- correctly. I was taking the SSL->ctx->default_cert when I should
- have been using SSL->cert. The bug was in ssl/s3_srvr.c
-
-20-Jun-97
- X509_ATTRIBUTES were being encoded wrongly by apps/reg.c and the
- rest of the library. Even though I had the code required to do
- it correctly, apps/req.c was doing the wrong thing. I have fixed
- and tested everything.
-
- Missing a few #ifdef FIONBIO sections in crypto/bio/bss_acpt.c.
-
-19-Jun-97
- Fixed a bug in the SSLv2 server side first packet handling. When
- using the non-blocking test BIO, the ssl->s2->first_packet flag
- was being reset when a would-block failure occurred when reading
- the first 5 bytes of the first packet. This caused the checking
- logic to run at the wrong time and cause an error.
-
- Fixed a problem with specifying cipher. If RC4-MD5 were used,
- only the SSLv3 version would be picked up. Now this will pick
- up both SSLv2 and SSLv3 versions. This required changing the
- SSL_CIPHER->mask values so that they only mask the ciphers,
- digests, authentication, export type and key-exchange algorithms.
-
- I found that when a SSLv23 session is established, a reused
- session, of type SSLv3 was attempting to write the SSLv2
- ciphers, which were invalid. The SSL_METHOD->put_cipher_by_char
- method has been modified so it will only write out cipher which
- that method knows about.
-
