+ Changes between 0.9.6 and 0.9.6a [xx XXX 2001]
+
+ *) Use the cached encoding of an X509_NAME structure rather than
+ copying it. This is apparently the reason for the libsafe "errors"
+ but the code is actually correct.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add new function BN_rand_range(), and fix DSA_sign_setup() to prevent
+ Bleichenbacher's DSA attack.
+ [Ulf Moeller]
+
+ *) In the NCONF_...-based implementations for CONF_... queries
+ (crypto/conf/conf_lib.c), if the input LHASH is NULL, avoid using
+ a temporary CONF structure with the data component set to NULL
+ (which gives segmentation faults in lh_retrieve).
+ Instead, use NULL for the CONF pointer in CONF_get_string and
+ CONF_get_number (which may use environment variables) and directly
+ return NULL from CONF_get_section.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Fix potential buffer overrun for EBCDIC.
+ [Ulf Moeller]
+
+ *) Tolerate nonRepudiation as being valid for S/MIME signing and certSign
+ keyUsage if basicConstraints absent for a CA.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Make SMIME_write_PKCS7() write mail header values with a format that
+ is more generally accepted (no spaces before the semicolon), since
+ some programs can't parse those values properly otherwise. Also make
+ sure BIO's that break lines after each write do not create invalid
+ headers.
+ [Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Make the CRL encoding routines work with empty SEQUENCE OF. The
+ macros previously used would not encode an empty SEQUENCE OF
+ and break the signature.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Zero the premaster secret after deriving the master secret in
+ DH ciphersuites.
+ [Steve Henson]
+
+ *) Add some EVP_add_digest_alias registrations (as found in
+ OpenSSL_add_all_digests()) to SSL_library_init()
+ aka OpenSSL_add_ssl_algorithms(). This provides improved
+ compatibility with peers using X.509 certificates
+ with unconventional AlgorithmIdentifier OIDs.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Fix for Irix with NO_ASM.
+ ["Bruce W. Forsberg" <bruce.forsberg@baesystems.com>]
+
+ *) ./config script fixes.
+ [Ulf Moeller, Richard Levitte]
+
+ *) Fix 'openssl passwd -1'.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Change PKCS12_key_gen_asc() so it can cope with non null
+ terminated strings whose length is passed in the passlen
+ parameter, for example from PEM callbacks. This was done
+ by adding an extra length parameter to asc2uni().
+ [Steve Henson, reported by <oddissey@samsung.co.kr>]
+
+ *) Fix C code generated by 'openssl dsaparam -C': If a BN_bin2bn
+ call failed, free the DSA structure.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Fix to uni2asc() to cope with zero length Unicode strings.
+ These are present in some PKCS#12 files.
+ [Steve Henson]
*) Increase s2->wbuf allocation by one byte in ssl2_new (ssl/s2_lib.c).
Otherwise do_ssl_write (ssl/s2_pkt.c) will write beyond buffer limits
[Bodo Moeller; problem reported by Eric Day <eday@concentric.net>]
*) In RSA_eay_public_{en,ed}crypt and RSA_eay_mod_exp (rsa_eay.c),
- obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before creating BN_MONT_CTX
- structures and setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
+ obtain lock CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA before setting rsa->_method_mod_{n,p,q}.
(RSA objects have a reference count access to which is protected
by CRYPTO_LOCK_RSA [see rsa_lib.c, s3_srvr.c, ssl_cert.c, ssl_rsa.c],
so they are meant to be shared between threads.)
- [patch submitted by "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
+ [Bodo Moeller, Geoff Thorpe; original patch submitted by
+ "Reddie, Steven" <Steven.Reddie@ca.com>]
+
+ *) Fix a deadlock in CRYPTO_mem_leaks().
+ [Bodo Moeller]
*) rand_win.c fix for Borland C.
[Ulf Möller]
result of the server certificate verification.)
[Lutz Jaenicke]
- *) Disable ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek (i.e., both implementations
- of SSL_peek) because they both are completely broken.
- For fixing this, the internal read functions now have an additional
- 'peek' parameter, but the actual peek functionality has not
- yet been implemented.
+ *) Fix ssl3_pending: If the record in s->s3->rrec is not of type
+ SSL3_RT_APPLICATION_DATA, return 0.
+ Similarly, change ssl2_pending to return 0 if SSL_in_init(s) is true.
+ [Bodo Moeller]
+
+ *) Fix SSL_peek:
+ Both ssl2_peek and ssl3_peek, which were totally broken in earlier
+ releases, have been re-implemented by renaming the previous
+ implementations of ssl2_read and ssl3_read to ssl2_read_internal
+ and ssl3_read_internal, respectively, and adding 'peek' parameters
+ to them. The new ssl[23]_{read,peek} functions are calls to
+ ssl[23]_read_internal with the 'peek' flag set appropriately.
+ A 'peek' parameter has also been added to ssl3_read_bytes, which
+ does the actual work for ssl3_read_internal.
[Bodo Moeller]
*) Increase BN_CTX_NUM (the number of BIGNUMs in a BN_CTX) to 16.
matter what.
[Richard Levitte]
+ *) Added several new manual pages for SSL_* function.

Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6 [24 Sep 2000]
*) In ssl23_get_client_hello, generate an error message when faced
