OpenSSL CHANGES
_______________
- Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ Changes between 1.0.x and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
*) New Suite B modes for TLS code. These use and enforce the requirements
of RFC6460: restrict ciphersuites, only permit Suite B algorithms and
certificates.
[Steve Henson]
- *) RFC 5878 support.
- [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
-
- *) Support for automatic EC temporary key parameter selection. If enabled
- the most preferred EC parameters are automatically used instead of
- hardcoded fixed parameters. Now a server just has to call:
- SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto(ctx, 1) and the server will automatically
- support ECDH and use the most appropriate parameters.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Enhance and tidy EC curve and point format TLS extension code. Use
- static structures instead of allocation if default values are used.
- New ctrls to set curves we wish to support and to retrieve shared curves.
- Print out shared curves in s_server. New options to s_server and s_client
- to set list of supported curves.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) New ctrls to retrieve supported signature algorithms and
- supported curve values as an array of NIDs. Extend openssl utility
- to print out received values.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Add new APIs EC_curve_nist2nid and EC_curve_nid2nist which convert
- between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
- ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Enhance SSL/TLS certificate chain handling to support different
- chains for each certificate instead of one chain in the parent SSL_CTX.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuite client authentication: where both
- server and client use DH certificates with common parameters.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Support for fixed DH ciphersuites: those requiring DH server
- certificates.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Transparently support X9.42 DH parameters when calling
- PEM_read_bio_DHparameters. This means existing applications can handle
- the new parameter format automatically.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Initial experimental support for X9.42 DH parameter format: mainly
- to support use of 'q' parameter for RFC5114 parameters.
- [Steve Henson]
-
- *) Add DH parameters from RFC5114 including test data to dhtest.
- [Steve Henson]
-
*) Update fips_test_suite to support multiple command line options. New
test to induce all self test errors in sequence and check expected
failures.
whose return value is often ignored.

+ Changes between 1.0.1 and 1.0.2 [xx XXX xxxx]
+
+ *) Support for linux-x32, ILP32 environment in x86_64 framework.
+ [Andy Polyakov]
+
+ *) RFC 5878 support.
+ [Emilia Kasper, Adam Langley, Ben Laurie (Google)]
+
+ *) Experimental multi-implementation support for FIPS capable OpenSSL.
+ When in FIPS mode the approved implementations are used as normal,
+ when not in FIPS mode the internal unapproved versions are used instead.
+ This means that the FIPS capable OpenSSL isn't forced to use the
+ (often lower perfomance) FIPS implementations outside FIPS mode.

Changes between 1.0.1c and 1.0.1d [xx XXX xxxx]
*) Fix possible deadlock when decoding public keys.
*) Initialise tkeylen properly when encrypting CMS messages.
Thanks to Solar Designer of Openwall for reporting this issue.

*) In FIPS mode don't try to use composite ciphers as they are not
approved.

Changes between 1.0.1a and 1.0.1b [26 Apr 2012]
-
+
*) OpenSSL 1.0.0 sets SSL_OP_ALL to 0x80000FFFL and OpenSSL 1.0.1 and
1.0.1a set SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1 to 0x00000400L which would unfortunately
mean any application compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.0 headers setting
the correct format in RSA_verify so both forms transparently work.
[Steve Henson]
- *) Add compatibility with old MDC2 signatures which use an ASN1 OCTET
- STRING form instead of a DigestInfo.
- [Steve Henson]
-
*) Some servers which support TLS 1.0 can choke if we initially indicate
support for TLS 1.2 and later renegotiate using TLS 1.0 in the RSA
encrypted premaster secret. As a workaround use the maximum pemitted
