133 response corresponds to the given certificate.
135 ** libgnutls: In client side gnutls_init() enables the session ticket and
136 OCSP certificate status request extensions by default. The flag
137 GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS can be used to prevent that.
139 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the OpenPGP code. The generating code
140 is fully RFC6091 compliant and RFC5081 support is only supported in client

184 * Version 3.1.2 (released 2012-09-26)
186 ** libgnutls: Fixed bug in gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_system_trust()
187 and gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_mem() that prevented the loading
188 of certificates in the windows platform.
190 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug in OpenPGP subpacket encoding.
192 ** libgnutls: Added support for DTLS/TLS heartbeats by Olga Smolenchuk.
193 (the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
195 ** libgnutls: Added X.509 certificate verification flag
196 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_UNSORTED_CHAIN. This flag allows the verification
197 of unsorted certificate chains and is enabled by default for
198 TLS certificate verification (if gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags()
199 does not override it).
201 ** libgnutls: Prints warning on certificates that contain keys of
202 an insecure level. If the %COMPAT priority flag is not specified
203 the TLS connection fails.
205 ** libgnutls: Correctly restore gnutls_record_recv() in DTLS mode
206 if interrupted during the retrasmition of handshake data.
208 ** libgnutls: Better mingw32 support (patch by LRN).
210 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT keyword, if specified, will tolerate
211 key usage violation errors (they are far too common to ignore).
213 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_STATELESS_COMPRESSION flag to gnutls_init(),
214 which provides a tool to counter compression-related attacks where
215 parts of the data are controlled by the attacker _and_ are placed in
216 separate records (use with care - do not use compression if not sure).
218 ** libgnutls: Depends on libtasn1 2.14 or later.
220 ** certtool: Prints the number of bits of the public key algorithm
221 parameter in a private key.
223 ** API and ABI modifications:
224 gnutls_x509_privkey_get_pk_algorithm2: Added
225 gnutls_heartbeat_ping: Added

229 gnutls_heartbeat_set_timeouts: Added
230 gnutls_heartbeat_get_timeout: Added
231 GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_WEAK: Added
232 GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_INSECURE: Added
234 * Version 3.1.1 (released 2012-09-02)
236 ** gnutls-serv: Listens on IPv6. Patch by Bernhard R. Link.
238 ** certtool: Changes in password handling of certtool.
239 Ask password when required and only if the '--password' option is not
240 given. If the '--password' option is given during key generation then
241 assume the PKCS #8 file format, instead of ignoring the password.
243 ** tpmtool: No longer asks for key password in registered keys.
245 ** libgnutls: Elliptic curve code was optimized by Ilya Tumaykin.
246 wmNAF is now used for point multiplication and other optimizations.
247 (the major part of the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
249 ** libgnutls: The default pull_timeout_function only uses select
250 instead of a combination of select() and recv() to prevent issues
251 when used in stream sockets in some systems.
253 ** libgnutls: Be tolerant in ECDSA signature violations (e.g. using
254 SHA256 with a SECP384 curve instead of SHA-384), to interoperate with
257 ** libgnutls: Fixed DSA and ECDSA signature generation in smart
258 cards. Thanks to Andreas Schwier from cardcontact.de for providing
259 me with ECDSA capable smart cards.
261 ** API and ABI modifications:
262 gnutls_sign_algorithm_get: Added
263 gnutls_sign_get_hash_algorithm: Added
264 gnutls_sign_get_pk_algorithm: Added
267 * Version 3.1.0 (released 2012-08-15)
269 ** libgnutls: Added direct support for TPM as a cryptographic module
270 in gnutls/tpm.h. TPM keys can be used in functions accepting files
271 using URLs of the following types:
272 tpmkey:file=/path/to/file
273 tpmkey:uuid=7f468c16-cb7f-11e1-824d-b3a4f4b20343;storage=user
275 ** libgnutls: Priority string level keywords can be combined.
276 For example the string "SECURE256:+SUITEB128" is now allowed.
278 ** libgnutls: requires libnettle 2.5.
280 ** libgnutls: Use the PKCS #1 1.5 encoding provided by nettle (2.5)
281 for encryption and signatures.
283 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE to differentiate between
284 generic errors and signature verification errors in the verification
287 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse() as a helper function
288 to simplify parsing in most PKCS #12 use cases.
290 ** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file() adds
291 the whole certificate chain (if any) to the credentials structure, instead
292 of only the end-user certificate.
294 ** libgnutls: Key import functions such as gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse()
295 and gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8(), return consistently
296 GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED if the input structure is encrypted but no
297 password was provided.
299 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_handshake_set_timeout() a function that
300 allows to set the maximum time spent in a handshake.
302 ** libgnutlsxx: Added session::set_transport_vec_push_function. Patch
305 ** tpmtool: Added. It is a tool to generate private keys in the
308 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-tls was split to --benchmark-tls-kx
309 and --benchmark-tls-ciphers
311 ** certtool: generated PKCS #12 structures may hold more than one
312 private key. Patch by Lucas Fisher.
314 ** certtool: Added option --null-password to generate/decrypt keys
315 that use a NULL password (in schemas that distinguish between NULL

1180 * Version 2.99.1 (released 2011-04-23)
1182 ** libgnutls: LZO support was removed.
1184 ** libgnutls: Corrections in SSLv2 client hello parsing.
1186 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-NI if detected. Uses
1187 Andy Polyakov's AES-NI code.
1189 ** libgnutls: Restored HMAC-MD5 for compatibility. Although considered
1190 weak, several sites require it for connection. It is enabled for
1191 "NORMAL" and "PERFORMANCE" priority strings.
1193 ** libgnutls: depend on libdl.
1195 ** libgnutls-extra: Dropped support of LZO compression via liblzo.
1197 ** libgnutls: gnutls_transport_set_global_errno() was removed. This
1198 function required GnuTLS to access system specific data, for no reason.
1199 Use gnutls_transport_set_errno(), or your system's errno fascility
1202 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2()
1203 to set a callback to retrieve a certificate. The certificate is
1204 received in a format that requires no processing from gnutls thus
1205 it is suitable when performance is required.
1207 ** API and ABI modifications:
1208 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: REMOVED
1209 gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2: ADDED
1211 * Version 2.99.0 (released 2011-04-09)
1213 ** libgnutls: Added Datagram TLS support.
1215 ** libgnutls: Uses a single configure file and a single
1216 gnulib library to save space.
1218 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes.
1220 ** libgnutls: gnutls_transport_set_lowat() is no more.
1222 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
1223 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
1225 ** libgnutls: Corrected signature generation and verification
1226 in the Certificate Verify message when in TLS 1.2. Reported
1229 ** libgnutlsxx: The C++ interface returns exception on
1230 every error and not only on fatal ones. This allows easier
1233 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue in DHE-PSK ciphersuites that ignored
1236 ** libgnutls: SRP and PSK are no longer set on the default priorities.
1237 They have to be explicitly set.
1239 ** libgnutls: During handshake message verification using DSS
1240 use the hash algorithm required by it.
1242 ** libgnutls: gnutls_recv() return GNUTLS_E_PREMATURE_TERMINATION
1243 on unexpected EOF, instead of GNUTLS_E_UNEXPECTED_PACKET_LENGTH.
1245 ** libgnutls: Added GCM mode (interoperates with tls.secg.org)
1247 ** libgnutls-extra: Inner application extension was removed.
1248 It was never standardized nor published as an RFC.
1250 ** libgnutls: Added new certificate verification functions, that
1251 can provide more details and are more efficient. Check
1252 gnutls_x509_trust_list_*.
1254 ** certtool: Uses the new certificate verification functions for
1257 ** certtool: Added new certificate verification functionality
1258 using the --verify option. Combined with --load-ca-certificate
1259 it can verify a certificate chain against a list of certificates.
1261 ** Several files unnecessarily included <gcrypt.h>; this has been fixed.
1263 ** API and ABI modifications:

1332 ** libgnutls: Corrected windows system_errno() function prototype.
1334 ** libgnutls: C++ compatibility fix for compat.h. Reported by Mark Brand.
1336 ** libgnutls: Fix size of gnutls_openpgp_keyid_t by using the
1337 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEYID_SIZE definition. Reported by Andreas Metzler.
1339 ** API and ABI modifications:
1340 No changes since last version.
1345 * Version 2.12.0 (released 2011-03-24)
1347 ** certtool: Warns on generation of DSA keys of over 1024 bits, about
1348 the incompatibility with TLS other than 1.2.
1350 ** libgnutls: Modified signature algorithm selection in client
1351 certificate request, to avoid failures in DSA certificates.
1353 ** libgnutls: Instead of failing with internal error, return
1354 GNUTLS_E_INCOMPAT_DSA_KEY_WITH_TLS_PROTOCOL if an incompatible DSA
1355 key with the negotiated protocol is encountered.
1357 ** libgnutls: Bug fixes in the RSA ciphersuite behavior with openpgp keys.
1359 ** libgnutls: Force state update when fork is detected in the nettle
1362 ** libgnutls: modified gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp() to use the preferred
1363 subkey instead of setting explicitly one.
1365 ** libgnutls: Corrected default behavior in record version of Client Hellos.
1367 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
1368 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
1370 ** API and ABI modifications:
1371 gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp: MODIFIED
1376 ** libgnutls: The deprecated gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash() was
1377 replaced by gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2().
1379 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
1380 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
1381 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
1382 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
1385 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
1386 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
1388 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
1390 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
1391 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),
1392 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash(), gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data(), were
1393 deprecated for gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(),
1394 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(), gnutls_privkey_sign_hash(),
1395 gnutls_privkey_sign_data(), gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash()
1396 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() respectively.
1398 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
1401 ** libgnutls: Added convenience functions gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2()
1402 and gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2().
1404 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
1405 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.
1407 ** API and ABI modifications:
1408 gnutls_x509_crl_list_import: ADDED
1409 gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2: ADDED

1432 gnutls_privkey_sign_hash: REMOVED (was added in 2.11.0)
1434 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
1436 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
1437 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
1440 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
1441 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
1443 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
1445 ** API and ABI modifications:
1446 No changes since last version.
1448 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
1450 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
1451 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
1452 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
1454 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
1455 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
1457 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
1458 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
1461 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
1463 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
1464 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
1465 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
1467 ** API and ABI modifications:
1468 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
1469 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
1471 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
1473 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
1474 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
1475 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
1476 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
1479 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
1481 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
1483 ** build: Update gnulib files.
1485 ** i18n: Update translations.
1487 ** tests: Add self tests gendh.c. Speed up Guile self checks.
1489 ** API and ABI modifications:
1490 gnutls_session_channel_binding: New function.
1491 gnutls_channel_binding_t: New enumeration.
1492 GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE: New gnutls_channel_binding_t enum member.
1493 GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE: New error code.
1495 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
1497 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
1498 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
1499 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
1500 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
1502 ** API and ABI modifications:
1503 No changes since last version.
1505 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
1507 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
1508 and session tickets support.
1510 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
1512 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
1513 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
1514 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
1515 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
1516 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
1519 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
1520 introduced with the new nettle code.
1522 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
1524 ** API and ABI modifications:
1525 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
1526 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
1528 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
1530 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
1531 to use the libgcrypt back end.
1533 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
1534 backend crypto library.
1536 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
1538 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
1540 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
1541 tabs are being skipped.
1543 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
1545 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
1548 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
1549 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
1550 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
1552 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
1553 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
1554 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
1555 and 3072 keys only).
1557 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1558 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1559 is unable to decode the key.
1561 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
1563 ** API and ABI modifications:
1564 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1565 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1567 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
1569 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
1570 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
1571 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
1574 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
1575 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
1576 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
1577 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
1578 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
1579 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
1580 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
1582 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
1586 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
1588 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
1589 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
1590 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
1592 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
1595 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
1596 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
1598 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
1599 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
1601 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
1602 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
1603 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
1604 the OPRFI extension was removed.
1606 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
1608 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
1609 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
1610 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
1612 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
1614 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
1615 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
1616 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
1618 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
1619 works even when resuming a session.
1621 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
1622 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
1623 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
1624 PKCS #11 private keys.
1626 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
1627 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
1629 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
1630 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
1632 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
1633 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
1634 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
1636 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1637 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
1638 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1640 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
1643 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
1644 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
1645 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
1646 connections using a url such as:
1647 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

1728 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
1730 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
1733 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
1735 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1736 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1737 is unable to decode the key.
1739 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
1740 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
1742 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
1743 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
1745 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1746 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
1747 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1749 ** API and ABI modifications:
1750 No changes since last version.
1752 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
1754 ** API and ABI modifications:
1755 No changes since last version.
1757 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
1759 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
1760 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
1763 ** API and ABI modifications:
1764 No changes since last version.
1766 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
1768 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
1769 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
1770 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
1771 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
1772 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
1774 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
1775 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
1777 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
1779 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
1781 ** API and ABI modifications:
1782 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
1783 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
1785 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
1787 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
1788 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
1791 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
1792 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
1793 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
1795 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
1796 Solves the issue discussed in:
1797 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
1798 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
1799 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
1800 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
1801 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
1802 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
1803 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
1804 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
1806 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
1808 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
1811 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
1812 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
1813 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
1814 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
1816 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
1817 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
1818 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
1819 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
1820 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
1821 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
1822 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
1823 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
1825 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
1826 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
1827 end of the handshake.
1829 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
1830 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
1832 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
1833 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
1834 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
1835 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
1836 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
1837 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
1838 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
1839 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
1840 now different than previous gnutls releases.
1841 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
1843 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
1845 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
1847 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.
1848 Reported by and tiny patch from Vitaly Mayatskikh

1910 No changes since last version.
1912 * Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
1914 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
1915 Reported by Tang Tong.
1917 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
1918 ** extension and certificate verify field.
1919 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
1920 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
1921 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
1922 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
1925 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
1926 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
1928 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
1930 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
1931 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
1932 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
1934 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
1935 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem
1936 introduced for the v2.8.x branch in 2.7.6.
1938 ** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
1939 To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
1941 ** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
1943 ** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.
1944 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in

1982 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
1984 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
1985 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
1986 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
1987 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad

2000 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
2003 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
2004 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
2005 OpenPGP hostname comparison.
2007 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
2008 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
2009 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
2011 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
2012 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
2013 error, to prevent this from happening again.
2015 ** API and ABI modifications:
2016 No changes since last version.
2018 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
2020 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
2021 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
2022 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
2023 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
2025 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

2032 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
2034 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2035 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2036 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2037 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2038 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2039 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2040 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2041 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2042 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2043 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2044 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2045 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2046 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2047 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
2049 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
2050 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
2051 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
2053 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
2055 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
2056 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
2057 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2058 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
2060 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
2061 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
2062 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
2063 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2064 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
2066 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
2067 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
2068 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
2069 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
2070 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.
2072 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
2073 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
2074 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
2075 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2076 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.
2078 ** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
2079 Report and patch by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2080 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3671>
2082 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
2084 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
2085 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
2086 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2087 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
2088 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
2089 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.
2091 ** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.
2093 ** tests: Improved test vectors in self-test pkcs12_s2k.
2095 ** tests: Added new self-test dn2 to detect off-by-one size error.
2097 ** tests: Fix failure in "chainverify" because a certificate have expired.
2099 ** API and ABI modifications:
2100 No changes since last version.
2102 * Version 2.9.1 (released 2009-06-08)
2104 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in gnutls_global_init after earlier init/deinit cycle.
2105 Forwarded by Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net> from
2106 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/272388>.
2108 ** tests: Added new self-tests init_roundtrip.c to detect previous problem.
2110 ** Reduce stack usage for some CRQ functions.
2112 ** Doc fixes for CRQ functions.
2114 ** API and ABI modifications:
2115 No changes since last version.
2117 * Version 2.9.0 (released 2009-05-28)
2121 ** API and ABI modifications:
2122 No changes since last version.
2124 * Version 2.8.6 (released 2010-03-15)
2126 ** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
2127 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2128 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
2130 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
2131 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
2132 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
2134 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
2135 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
2136 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
2137 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
2138 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti

2222 * Version 2.8.2 (released 2009-08-10)
2224 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2225 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2226 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2227 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2228 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2229 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2230 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2231 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2232 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2233 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2234 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2235 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2236 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2237 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4].

2264 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2265 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by

2398 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
2399 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
2402 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
2403 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
2409 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
2410 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
2411 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
2412 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
2413 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
2414 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
2416 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
2417 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
2418 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
2419 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
2422 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
2423 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
2424 also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected
2427 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
2428 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
2429 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
2430 GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
2431 GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
2432 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
2434 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
2435 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
2437 The following symbols have been added to the library:

2593 * Version 2.7.8 (released 2009-05-03)
2595 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2596 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2598 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2599 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
2600 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
2601 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
2602 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
2603 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
2604 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
2605 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2606 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2607 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
2609 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
2610 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
2611 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
2612 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
2613 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
2614 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
2615 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
2616 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
2619 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
2620 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
2621 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
2622 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
2623 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
2624 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
2627 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
2628 This should have been done in the last release.

2649 * Version 2.7.7 (released 2009-04-20)
2651 ** libgnutls: Applied patch by Cedric Bail to add functions
2652 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash() and gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm().
2654 ** gnutls.pc: Add -ltasn1 to 'pkg-config --libs --static gnutls' output.
2655 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
2656 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3467>.
2658 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.8.
2659 GnuTLS is also internally ready to be used with libtasn1 v2.0.
2661 ** doc: Fix build failure of errcodes/printlist.
2662 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org> in
2663 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3435>.
2665 ** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
2666 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
2667 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
2669 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.

2674 gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
2676 * Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
2678 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
2679 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
2681 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
2683 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
2684 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
2685 be used for chain verification.
2687 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
2688 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
2690 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
2691 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
2692 information. This avoids code duplication.
2694 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
2695 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
2696 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
2699 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
2700 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
2701 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.

2705 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
2707 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
2709 ** API and ABI modifications:
2710 No changes since last version.
2712 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
2714 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2715 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2716 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2717 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2718 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2719 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2720 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2721 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2722 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2723 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
2724 <deengert@anl.gov> in
2725 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2727 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
2728 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
2730 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
2731 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
2732 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
2734 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2735 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2736 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2737 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
2738 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
2739 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2741 ** API and ABI modifications:
2742 No changes since last version.
2744 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
2746 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2747 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2748 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2749 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2750 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2751 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
2752 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
2753 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
2755 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
2756 Patch from David MarÃn Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
2757 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
2759 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
2761 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
2762 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
2763 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
2764 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
2765 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
2766 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
2768 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
2770 ** API and ABI modifications:
2771 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
2773 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
2775 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
2776 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in

2779 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
2781 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
2782 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
2783 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
2784 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
2785 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
2786 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
2787 real change in behaviour.
2789 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
2790 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
2791 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
2793 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
2795 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
2796 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
2798 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
2800 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
2802 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
2804 ** API and ABI modifications:
2805 No changes since last version.
2807 * Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
2809 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2810 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2811 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2812 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2813 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
2815 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
2816 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
2818 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
2819 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
2820 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2821 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
2822 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2823 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
2824 work but are deprecated.

2945 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>. See the advisory
2946 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-1] [CVE-2009-1415]
2948 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2949 Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
2950 DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
2951 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2953 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2954 Reported by Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com>. Before the
2955 library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
2956 was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
2957 applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
2958 proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
2959 to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
2960 time (as reported by the time function) is within the
2961 activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
2964 This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
2965 turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
2966 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
2967 gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
2968 condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
2969 add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2970 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new

3111 No changes since last version.
3113 * Version 2.6.0 (released 2008-10-06)
3115 ** libgnutls: Correct printing and parsing of IPv6 addresses.
3117 ** libgnutls-openssl: fix out of bounds access.
3118 Problem in X509_get_subject_name and X509_get_issuer_name. Tiny patch
3119 from Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>.
3121 ** certtool: Use inet_pton for parsing IPv6 addresses.
3123 ** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
3125 *** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3127 *** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
3129 *** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3131 *** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3132 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3133 such as IP addresses.
3135 *** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3136 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
3138 *** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
3139 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
3140 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id.
3142 *** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
3143 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
3145 *** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3146 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3148 *** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3149 *** from a private key.
3150 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw.
3152 *** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3153 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3154 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3156 *** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3158 *** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3159 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3160 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3161 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3162 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3165 *** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3166 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3167 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
3170 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
3171 No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
3172 fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
3174 A new header file <gnutls/crypto.h> have been added. It contains
3175 definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
3176 All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
3178 We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
3179 does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
3180 and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
3182 The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
3186 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2
3187 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2
3188 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2
3189 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2

3206 gnutls_x509_crt_set_crl_dist_points2
3207 gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name
3209 The following functions have been added to libgnutls-extra:
3211 gnutls_register_md5_handler
3213 ** API and ABI modifications:
3214 No changes since last version.
3216 * Version 2.5.9 (released 2008-09-29)
3218 ** libgnutls: Fix several memory leaks.
3219 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3221 ** libgnutls: Fix buffer overrun in gnutls_x509_crt_list_import.
3222 Report and patch by Jonathan Manktelow.
3224 ** libgnutls: crypto.h gnutls_pk_params_st changes allocation strategy.
3225 The parameters are now allocated in the structure itself.
3227 ** doc: Texinfo HTML manual uses a stylesheet to improve readability.
3229 ** tests: Scripts now use EXEEXT properly.
3230 Modern libtool doesn't create wrapper script, so the self tests need
3231 to invoke certtool.exe under MinGW32+Wine.
3233 ** Uses autoconf 2.63, automake 1.10.1, libtool 2.2.6a.
3234 Automake warnings are now also enabled.
3236 ** API and ABI modifications:
3237 gnutls_pk_params_st: MODIFIED
3239 * Version 2.5.8 (released 2008-09-21)
3241 ** certtool: updated so it can add several subject alternative names using
3244 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3245 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3246 such as IP addresses.
3248 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in hashing code when using non-libgcrypt handlers.
3250 ** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3251 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits. Tiny patch by Kevin Quick
3252 <quick@sparq.org> in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106454>.
3254 ** libgnutls: Check for overflows in gnutls_calloc and gnutls_secure_calloc.
3255 Also fix overflows in calls to those functions. Reported by Werner
3256 Koch <wk@gnupg.org>.
3258 ** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3259 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3260 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in

3278 ** libgnutls: Don't crash when gnutls_credentials_set is called twice.
3280 ** libgnutls: Fix libgnutls shared library version.
3281 It wasn't properly incremented after adding symbols in the last
3284 ** manual: Now mention supported public key and public key signing algorithms.
3286 ** tests/openssl: initialize gnutls before use.
3288 ** tests/setcredcrash: New test to catch regressions of gnutls_credentials_set.
3290 ** GTK-DOC manual: mention new symbols in 2.6.x. Mention crypto.h functions.

3296 * Version 2.5.6 (released 2008-09-08)
3298 ** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
3299 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
3300 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id. Suggested by Sam
3301 Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3303 ** libgnutls: Refactor and clean up some code.
3305 ** libgnutls: Fix compile error with Sun CC.
3307 ** gnutls-cli: Improve --list output to include public key and signature algs.
3309 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Remove --copyright parameter.
3310 Use standard --version to get license info.
3312 ** gnutls-cli.1: Document all new parameters.
3313 Thanks to James Westby <jw+debian@jameswestby.net>.
3315 ** tests: New self-test pgps2kgnu to test parsing of encrypted secrets.
3316 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.

3320 gnutls_pk_get_id: ADDED
3321 gnutls_sign_list: ADDED
3322 gnutls_sign_get_id: ADDED
3324 * Version 2.5.5 (released 2008-08-29)
3326 ** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3327 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3329 ** libgnutls: Fix include paths so that building with internal libtasn1 works.
3330 Reported by "jth.net ApS" <info@jth.net>.
3332 ** libgnutls: Fix segmentation fault when generating private keys.
3333 Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3335 ** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
3336 The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
3337 it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
3338 old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
3339 to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
3340 by Christian Grothoff <christian@grothoff.org>.
3342 ** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3343 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3345 ** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
3347 ** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.
3349 ** Add French translation, thanks to Nicolas Provost.

3352 gnutls_strerror_name: ADDED
3354 * Version 2.5.4 (released 2008-08-19)
3356 ** Fix secure memory initialization of libgcrypt.
3357 Reported by Joe Orton <joe@manyfish.co.uk> in
3358 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2992>.
3361 Reference to NIST SP 800-57 in the manual on key size recommendations.
3362 Added 'Since:' tags to new APIs for gtk-doc.
3364 ** API and ABI modifications:
3365 No changes since last version.
3367 * Version 2.5.3 (released 2008-08-14)
3369 ** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3370 ** from a private key.
3371 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
3372 discussion with "Zach C." <fxchip@gmail.com>.
3374 ** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3375 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3376 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3378 ** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
3379 Reported in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106453>.
3381 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3382 The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
3383 names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
3384 likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
3385 the namespace violation.
3387 ** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
3389 ** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
3391 ** API and ABI modifications:
3392 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw: ADDED
3393 gnutls_session_set_finished_function: ADDED
3394 gnutls_finished_callback_func: ADDED
3395 GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE: ADDED
3396 GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE: ADDED
3397 TLS_MASTER_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3398 TLS_RANDOM_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3400 * Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
3402 ** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
3403 The prime and generator was swapped.
3405 ** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3406 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3407 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3408 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3409 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3412 ** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
3413 This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
3414 The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
3415 libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong
3418 ** API and ABI modifications:
3419 gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
3420 gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
3421 gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED
3422 gnutls_ext_register: ADDED
3424 * Version 2.5.1 (released 2008-07-02)
3428 ** API and ABI modifications:
3429 No changes since last version.
3431 * Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
3433 ** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.
3435 ** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3436 The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
3439 ** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
3441 ** Update gnulib and translations.
3442 The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
3443 and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
3444 implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later
3447 ** API and ABI modifications:
3448 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2: ADDED.
3449 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2: ADDED.
3450 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2: ADDED.
3451 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2: ADDED.
3452 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2: ADDED.

3456 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2: ADDED.
3458 * Version 2.4.3 (released 2009-02-06)
3460 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
3461 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
3462 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
3463 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
3464 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
3465 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
3466 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
3467 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
3468 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
3469 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
3470 <deengert@anl.gov> in
3471 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3473 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
3474 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
3475 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
3476 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
3477 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
3478 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3480 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
3481 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
3482 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
3483 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
3484 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
3485 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
3486 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
3487 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
3489 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
3490 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
3491 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by
3492 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3493 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
3495 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
3496 The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
3497 problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
3498 certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org> in
3499 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=505279>.
3501 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
3502 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
3503 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
3504 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
3505 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]

3543 ** libgnutls: Fix local crash in gnutls_handshake. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-2]
3544 If the gnutls_handshake function is called for a normal session, which
3545 can happen for re-handshakes, the library would crash because it tried
3546 to hash some data using a libgcrypt handle that had been deallocated.

3567 ** API and ABI modifications:
3568 No changes since last version.
3570 * Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
3572 ** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3574 *** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
3576 *** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
3577 *** derivation and PSK identity hints.
3578 The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
3579 draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
3581 *** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3582 This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
3583 The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3585 *** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
3587 *** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
3588 It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
3589 CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
3591 *** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3592 The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
3593 but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
3596 *** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
3598 *** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
3599 Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3601 *** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
3603 *** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
3604 *** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
3605 Thanks to Joe Orton.
3607 *** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
3609 *** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
3610 The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
3611 reflect, so the following name change has been made:
3614 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
3615 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
3616 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
3618 The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
3620 *** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
3621 *** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
3622 A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
3625 *** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
3627 *** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
3628 We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
3630 *** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
3632 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
3633 All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
3634 libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
3635 Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
3636 libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
3637 version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
3638 All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
3639 possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
3640 and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
3641 the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
3642 the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.
3644 This release adds the following functions:
3646 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint
3647 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint
3648 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key
3650 Used to get/set the PSK identity hint, and derive PSK keys from
3651 passwords a'la netconf.
3653 gnutls_x509_dn_deinit
3654 gnutls_x509_dn_export
3655 gnutls_x509_dn_import
3658 Used to handle X.509 Certificate DN's directly.
3662 Converts a data buffer to hex. Useful for handling PSK/SRP shared
3665 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
3666 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
3667 gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
3669 Functions for direct access to credential elements.
3671 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey

3709 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_revoked_status
3710 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_set_preferred_key_id
3712 New OpenPGP related functions.
3714 The function gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id is the same as the old
3715 from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
3717 The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
3718 is currently not used.
3720 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
3721 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3723 ** API and ABI modifications:
3724 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3725 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3727 * Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
3729 ** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
3730 It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.
3732 ** API and ABI modifications:
3733 No changes since last version.
3735 * Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
3737 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
3738 An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
3741 ** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
3742 Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
3744 ** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
3745 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3747 ** API and ABI modifications:
3748 No changes since last version.
3750 * Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
3752 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
3754 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
3756 ** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
3758 ** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
3759 The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
3760 printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
3761 follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
3762 '--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
3765 ** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
3766 Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
3768 ** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
3769 None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
3770 or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
3771 set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
3774 ** API and ABI modifications:
3775 No changes since last version.
3777 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
3779 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
3781 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
3782 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
3784 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
3785 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3787 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
3788 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
3789 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
3790 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
3791 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3793 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
3794 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
3795 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
3798 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
3799 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
3801 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
3803 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
3804 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
3805 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
3807 *** New PSK example client and server.
3808 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
3810 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
3811 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
3812 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
3813 <l@lwithers.me.uk> in
3814 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
3816 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
3817 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
3819 ** API and ABI modifications:
3820 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
3821 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
3822 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
3823 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
3825 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
3827 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3828 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3829 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3830 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
3831 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3832 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
3834 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
3835 Fixes builds under Windows.
3837 ** Make umask a requirement.
3838 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
3841 ** Update gnulib files.
3842 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
3843 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
3845 ** API and ABI modifications:
3846 No changes since last version.
3848 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
3850 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
3851 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
3853 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3854 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3855 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3856 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3857 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
3858 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3860 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3861 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3862 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3863 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3864 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3865 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3867 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3868 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3869 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3870 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3871 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3873 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3874 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3875 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3876 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3877 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3879 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
3880 Villanueva Che (discussion at
3881 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
3883 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
3885 ** API and ABI modifications:
3886 No changes since last version.
3888 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
3890 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
3891 Based on report and tiny patches from
3892 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
3893 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
3895 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
3897 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
3898 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
3900 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
3901 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
3902 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
3903 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
3904 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
3906 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
3907 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
3908 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
3909 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
3911 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
3913 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
3914 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
3915 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
3917 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
3919 ** Update of gnulib files.
3921 ** API and ABI modifications:
3922 No changes since last version.
3924 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
3926 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3927 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3928 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3929 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3930 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3931 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3933 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
3934 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
3935 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
3938 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
3939 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
3940 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
3942 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
3943 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
3945 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3946 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
3947 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3949 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
3951 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
3953 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
3954 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
3955 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
3957 ** Update of gnulib files.
3959 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
3961 ** API and ABI modifications:
3962 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
3964 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
3966 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
3968 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
3969 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
3970 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
3972 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
3974 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
3975 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
3976 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
3977 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
3978 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
3981 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
3983 ** API and ABI modifications:
3984 No changes since last version.
3986 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
3988 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
3989 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
3990 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
3991 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
3993 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
3994 Based on HPUX build hints in
3995 <http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/cgi-bin/wwwtar?/hpux/Gnu/gnutls-2.3.4/gnutls-2.3.4-src-11.11.tar.gz+gnutls-2.3.4/HPUX.Install+text>.
3997 ** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
3998 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3999 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
4001 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
4002 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
4003 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
4004 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
4005 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
4006 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
4008 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
4009 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
4010 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
4012 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
4014 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
4015 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
4016 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
4017 maintain an external library (help welcome).
4019 ** API and ABI modifications:
4020 No changes since last version.
4022 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
4024 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
4025 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
4026 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1145>.
4028 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
4029 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
4031 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4033 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
4034 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
4036 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
4037 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
4038 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
4040 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
4042 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
4043 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
4045 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
4047 ** Update gnulib files.
4049 ** API and ABI modifications:
4050 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
4051 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
4052 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4053 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4054 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4055 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
4056 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
4057 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
4058 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
4060 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
4062 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
4063 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
4065 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
4066 override the included ones.
4068 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
4070 ** API and ABI modifications:
4071 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
4072 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
4073 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
4074 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
4075 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
4076 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
4077 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
4079 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
4081 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
4082 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4084 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
4085 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
4086 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
4087 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
4088 not documented until now.)
4090 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
4091 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
4092 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
4093 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
4094 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
4095 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
4096 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
4097 to trigger the problem. See also
4098 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
4100 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
4101 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
4103 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
4105 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
4107 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4108 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4109 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4111 ** Updated translations.
4113 ** Update gnulib files.
4115 ** API and ABI modifications:
4116 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
4117 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
4119 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
4121 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
4123 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
4125 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
4127 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.

4136 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
4138 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
4140 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
4141 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
4144 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4145 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4147 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
4149 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4152 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4153 for checks without limitation.
4155 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4156 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4157 strings and return the proper size.
4159 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
4160 This collects all problems related to record padding with
4161 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
4163 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
4164 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to

4191 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_pk_algorithm: ADDED
4192 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_creation_time: ADDED
4193 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_expiration_time: ADDED

4222 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL.
4223 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE.
4224 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL: ADDED, same as
4225 old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL.
4227 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
4229 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
4230 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
4231 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
4232 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
4233 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
4234 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
4236 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
4237 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
4239 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4240 in a callback friendly way.
4242 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4244 ** Updated translations.
4246 ** Update gnulib files.
4248 ** API and ABI modifications:
4249 No changes since last version.
4251 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
4253 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
4254 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
4255 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
4256 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
4257 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
4258 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
4260 ** API and ABI modifications:
4261 No changes since last version.
4263 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
4265 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
4266 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
4267 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
4268 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
4269 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
4270 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
4272 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
4273 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
4274 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4275 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4276 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
4277 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
4279 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
4280 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
4281 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4282 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4283 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
4285 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
4286 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
4287 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4288 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4289 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
4291 ** API and ABI modifications:
4292 No changes since last version.
4294 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
4296 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
4297 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
4298 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
4299 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
4300 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
4301 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
4303 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4304 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4305 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4307 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4309 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
4310 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
4311 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.

4314 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
4315 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
4317 ** Make Camellia encryption work.
4318 Reported by Yoshisato YANAGISAWA <yanagisawa@csg.is.titech.ac.jp> in
4319 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2746>.
4321 ** API and ABI modifications:
4322 No changes since last version.
4324 * Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
4326 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4327 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4329 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4332 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4333 for checks without limitation.
4335 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4336 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4337 strings and return the proper size.
4339 ** API and ABI modifications:
4340 No changes since last version.
4342 * Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
4344 ** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
4345 Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com>, see
4346 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202269>.
4348 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4349 in a callback friendly way.
4351 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4353 ** API and ABI modifications:
4354 No changes since last version.
4356 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
4358 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
4360 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
4361 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
4362 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
4363 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
4365 ** Translation updates.
4366 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
4368 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
4370 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
4372 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
4374 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
4376 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
4378 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
4380 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
4382 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
4383 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
4384 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
4385 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
4386 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
4387 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
4390 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
4391 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
4393 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
4394 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
4397 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
4399 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
4400 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
4401 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
4402 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
4403 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
4404 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
4405 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
4407 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
4408 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
4411 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
4412 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
4413 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
4414 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
4416 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
4417 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
4418 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
4419 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
4420 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
4421 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
4423 *** XML related changes
4424 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
4425 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
4426 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
4427 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
4428 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
4429 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
4430 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
4431 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
4433 *** TLS Authorization related changes
4434 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
4435 only stub functions that returned an error code:
4437 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
4438 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
4439 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
4440 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
4442 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
4443 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
4444 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
4445 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
4447 *** SRP related changes
4448 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
4449 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
4450 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
4451 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
4454 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
4455 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
4456 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
4457 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
4458 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
4459 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
4460 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
4461 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
4463 *** OpenPGP related changes
4464 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
4465 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
4466 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
4468 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
4469 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
4470 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
4471 The following have been removed:
4473 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
4474 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
4475 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
4476 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
4477 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
4478 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
4479 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
4481 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
4482 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
4483 (binary or base64). The functions are:
4484 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
4485 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
4486 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
4487 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
4489 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
4490 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
4491 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
4494 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
4495 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
4496 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
4497 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
4498 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
4499 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
4500 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit

4508 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
4509 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
4510 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id

4512 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
4514 ** API and ABI modifications:
4515 No changes since last version.
4517 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
4519 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
4520 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
4521 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
4523 ** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
4525 ** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
4526 at gnutls_priority_set().

4536 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
4538 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
4539 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
4540 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
4542 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
4543 the priority string.
4545 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
4546 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
4548 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.

4590 ** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
4593 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
4594 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
4595 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
4596 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
4597 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
4598 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
4599 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
4600 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
4602 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
4604 ** API and ABI modifications:
4605 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.
4606 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.

4609 * Version 2.1.5 (released 2007-11-01)
4611 ** Fix PKCS#3 parameter export problem.
4613 ** Improve certtool queries, they now print the default value.
4617 ** Update gnulib files.
4619 ** API and ABI modifications:
4620 No changes since last version.
4622 * Version 2.1.4 (released 2007-10-27)
4624 ** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
4625 version 1 certificates.
4627 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
4628 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
4630 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
4632 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
4633 priorities preferences.
4635 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4636 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4639 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4640 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
4642 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
4643 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.
4645 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.5.

4687 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4688 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4689 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to

4691 lead the way with our own actions.

4711 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
4713 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
4714 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
4716 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.

4753 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
4755 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
4756 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
4757 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
4758 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
4759 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.

4766 * Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
4768 ** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
4769 The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
4770 by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
4771 yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.

4779 gnutls_oprfi_enable_server: ADD, new function.
4781 * Version 2.0.4 (released 2007-11-16)
4783 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
4785 ** API and ABI modifications:
4786 No changes since last version.

4790 ** This version backports several fixes from the 2.1.x branch.
4792 ** Fixed PKCS #3 parameter export.

4808 * Version 2.0.2 (released 2007-10-17)
4810 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4811 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4812 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4813 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4814 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4815 lead the way with our own actions.
4817 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4819 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
4821 ** API and ABI modifications:
4822 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4823 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4825 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
4827 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
4828 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
4829 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
4831 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
4832 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
4833 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
4834 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
4836 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
4838 ** API and ABI modifications:
4839 No changes since last version.
4841 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
4843 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
4845 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
4847 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
4849 ** API and ABI modifications:
4850 No changes since last version.
4852 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
4854 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
4855 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
4856 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
4858 ** Update gnulib files.
4859 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
4860 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
4861 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
4862 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
4863 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
4864 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
4868 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
4870 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
4872 ** API and ABI modifications:
4873 No changes since last version.
4875 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
4877 ** Install images for the info manual.
4878 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
4879 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
4880 discussions on the approach chosen.
4882 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
4883 Patch extracted from
4884 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
4886 ** Fix warnings during build.
4887 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4889 ** API and ABI modifications:
4890 No changes since last version.
4892 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
4894 ** New functions to perform external signing.
4895 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
4896 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
4897 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
4898 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
4899 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
4900 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
4901 comments and testing.
4903 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
4904 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
4905 the new external signing callback interface.
4907 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
4908 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
4909 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
4910 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
4911 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
4912 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
4913 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
4914 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
4917 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
4918 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
4919 let's not enable it just yet.
4921 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
4922 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
4923 names without the '_t' suffix.
4925 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
4926 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4928 ** More documentation fixes.
4929 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4930 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4932 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
4933 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
4934 <po@danielnylander.se>.
4936 ** API and ABI modifications:
4937 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
4938 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
4939 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
4940 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
4941 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
4942 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
4943 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
4945 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
4947 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
4948 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
4949 suitable certificate was found.
4951 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
4952 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
4954 ** Documentation fixes.
4955 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4956 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.

4960 ** API and ABI modifications:
4961 No changes since last version.
4963 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
4965 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
4967 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
4968 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
4969 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
4970 libguile.h header installed.
4972 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
4973 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
4974 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
4975 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
4976 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
4977 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
4978 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
4980 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
4982 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.
4983 Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4985 ** Add Malay message translations.

5063 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
5064 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5066 ** API and ABI modifications:
5067 No changes since last version.
5069 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
5071 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5072 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
5074 ** Update of gnulib files.
5076 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
5077 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
5079 ** API and ABI modifications:
5080 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5081 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5083 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
5085 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
5086 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
5088 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
5089 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
5090 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
5091 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
5092 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
5093 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
5095 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
5097 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
5099 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5100 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5101 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5102 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5103 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5104 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5105 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5107 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5109 ** API and ABI modifications:
5110 No changes since last version.
5112 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
5114 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
5115 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
5117 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
5118 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
5120 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
5121 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
5122 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
5123 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
5124 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
5125 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
5126 been approved by the IETF.
5128 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
5129 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
5130 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
5132 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
5134 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
5135 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5137 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
5138 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
5139 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
5141 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
5142 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
5143 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
5144 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
5145 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5147 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
5149 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
5151 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
5152 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
5153 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
5154 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
5157 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
5158 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
5160 ** API and ABI modifications:
5161 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
5162 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
5163 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,
5164 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer: ADD.
5165 gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava: ADD.
5166 gnutls_cipher_list: ADD.
5167 gnutls_mac_list: ADD.
5168 gnutls_compression_list: ADD.
5169 gnutls_protocol_list: ADD.
5170 gnutls_certificate_type_list: ADD.
5171 gnutls_kx_list: ADD.
5172 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
5174 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
5176 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
5177 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
5178 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
5180 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5181 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
5183 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5184 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
5185 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
5186 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
5188 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5189 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
5191 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
5192 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
5194 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
5195 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
5197 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
5198 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
5200 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
5201 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
5202 string in the provided buffer.
5204 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
5205 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
5206 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
5208 ** API and ABI modifications:
5209 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
5210 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5211 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5212 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
5213 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
5214 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
5215 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
5216 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
5217 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
5218 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
5219 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
5220 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5221 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
5222 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
5224 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
5226 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
5227 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
5228 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
5229 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
5230 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
5231 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
5232 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
5233 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
5235 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
5236 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
5237 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
5239 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
5240 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
5241 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
5242 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
5244 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
5245 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
5246 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
5247 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
5249 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
5250 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
5252 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
5253 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
5256 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
5257 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5259 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
5260 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
5261 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
5265 ** API and ABI modifications:
5266 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
5267 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
5268 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
5269 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
5270 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
5271 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
5272 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5273 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5275 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
5277 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
5280 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
5282 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5283 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
5285 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
5286 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
5287 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
5289 ** Update of gnulib files.
5291 ** API and ABI modifications:
5292 No changes since last version.
5294 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
5296 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
5297 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
5298 testing all new hashes.
5300 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
5302 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
5304 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
5306 ** Update of gnulib files.
5308 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
5309 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
5310 missing unless the template specify it.
5312 ** API and ABI modifications:
5315 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
5318 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
5319 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
5320 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
5321 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
5323 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
5325 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
5326 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
5327 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
5328 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
5329 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
5330 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
5331 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
5332 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
5333 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
5335 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
5336 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
5338 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
5340 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
5342 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
5343 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
5344 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
5346 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
5347 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
5348 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
5351 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
5353 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
5354 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
5356 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
5357 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5359 ** Update of gnulib files.
5361 ** API and ABI modifications:
5362 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
5363 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
5364 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
5366 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
5368 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
5370 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
5371 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
5372 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5374 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
5375 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
5376 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
5377 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
5378 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
5379 will continue to be supported.
5381 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
5382 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
5383 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
5384 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
5386 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
5387 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
5388 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
5389 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5391 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
5392 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
5393 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
5394 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
5395 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
5396 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
5398 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
5399 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5401 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
5402 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
5403 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
5405 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
5406 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
5408 ** Update of gnulib files.
5410 ** API and ABI modifications:
5411 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
5412 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
5413 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5414 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5416 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5418 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
5419 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
5420 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
5421 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5423 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
5424 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5426 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5427 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5428 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5430 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5431 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
5432 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5434 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5435 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5436 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5437 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5438 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5441 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
5442 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5444 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
5445 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
5446 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
5448 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
5449 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
5451 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
5453 ** Update of gnulib files.
5455 ** API and ABI modifications:
5456 No changes since last version.
5458 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
5460 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
5461 The details is that the protocol priority set by
5462 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
5463 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
5465 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
5466 The client has been successfully tested against
5467 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
5469 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
5471 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
5473 ** Update of gnulib files.
5475 ** API and ABI modifications:
5476 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
5478 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
5480 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5481 This fixes the following error message:
5482 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5483 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5485 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
5487 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5488 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
5489 from the 1.7.x branch, see
5490 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
5492 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
5493 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
5494 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
5495 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
5497 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
5498 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
5499 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5501 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
5502 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
5503 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
5504 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
5505 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
5507 ** API and ABI modifications:
5508 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5509 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5511 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
5513 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5514 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5515 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5516 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5517 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5518 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5519 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5521 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
5522 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
5523 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
5524 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
5525 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
5526 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
5528 ** Updated translations.
5530 ** API and ABI modifications:
5531 No changes since last version.
5533 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5535 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5536 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5537 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5539 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5540 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5542 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5543 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5544 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5545 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5546 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5549 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5550 This fixes the following error message:
5551 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5552 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5554 ** API and ABI modifications:
5555 No changes since last version.
5557 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
5559 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
5560 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
5562 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
5563 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
5564 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
5566 *** Windows is a supported platform.
5567 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
5568 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
5569 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
5570 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
5572 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
5573 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
5574 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
5575 1.5.4 for more information.
5577 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
5579 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
5581 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
5582 This was forgotten in the last release.
5584 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
5585 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5587 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
5589 ** Update of gnulib files.
5591 ** API and ABI modifications:
5592 No changes since last version.
5594 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
5596 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
5597 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
5598 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
5599 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
5600 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
5601 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
5602 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
5603 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
5604 of these functions. It is recommended to use
5605 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
5606 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
5607 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
5608 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5610 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
5611 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
5613 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
5614 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
5615 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
5617 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
5618 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
5619 important fix is to change the return value of
5620 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
5621 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
5622 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
5623 compatible with 'int').
5625 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
5626 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
5627 ** instead of the lowest.
5628 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
5630 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
5631 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
5632 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
5633 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
5635 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
5636 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
5637 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
5639 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
5641 ** Update of gnulib files.
5643 ** API and ABI modifications:
5644 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
5645 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
5647 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
5649 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
5650 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
5651 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
5652 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
5653 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
5655 ** Re-factor self tests.
5657 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
5659 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
5661 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
5663 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
5664 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
5665 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
5666 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
5669 ** API and ABI modifications:
5670 No changes since last version.
5672 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
5674 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
5675 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
5676 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
5677 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
5678 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
5679 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
5680 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5682 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
5683 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
5684 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"
5685 <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
5687 ** Add version script for the GnuTLS C++ library.
5688 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5690 ** Fix the C++ compiler detection logic.
5691 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.

5695 ** API and ABI modifications:
5696 No changes since last version.
5698 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
5700 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5701 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5702 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5703 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
5704 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5705 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
5706 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka

5709 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
5710 up to date information.
5712 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
5714 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
5715 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
5716 indicate that the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
5717 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
5719 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
5720 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5722 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
5723 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
5724 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
5725 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5727 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
5728 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
5729 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
5730 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
5732 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
5734 ** API and ABI modifications:
5735 No changes since last version.
5737 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
5739 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
5741 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5743 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
5744 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
5745 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
5746 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
5747 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
5748 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
5749 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
5750 create *.def files, which are installed.
5752 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
5753 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
5754 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
5757 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".
5758 You may unconditionally disable it with --disable-cxx. See
5759 includes/gnutls/gnutlsxx.h and lib/gnutlsxx.cpp for the

5763 This enables 'make distcheck' to succeed.
5765 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
5767 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5768 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
5770 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.

5793 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
5794 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
5795 ** verification logic flaw.
5796 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
5797 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
5800 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
5801 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
5802 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
5803 oracle in typical recommended situations.
5805 ** API and ABI modifications:

5834 * Version 1.4.2 (released 2006-08-12)
5836 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
5837 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
5838 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
5839 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
5840 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
5841 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
5842 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
5843 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
5844 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
5845 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.

5851 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5852 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
5854 ** API and ABI modifications:
5855 No changes since last version.
5857 * Version 1.4.1 (released 2006-06-14)
5859 ** Replaced inactive ifdefs to enable openpgp support in test programs.
5861 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5863 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.
5865 ** Build fixes of the manual.
5867 ** Added Swedish translation.
5869 ** API and ABI modifications:
5870 No changes since last version.
5872 * Version 1.4.0 (released 2006-05-15)
5874 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
5876 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
5878 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
5879 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
5880 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
5883 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
5885 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
5887 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
5889 ** API and ABI modifications:
5890 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
5891 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
5892 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
5893 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
5895 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
5897 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
5899 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
5900 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
5901 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
5902 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
5903 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
5904 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
5905 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
5906 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
5907 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
5909 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
5910 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
5912 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
5914 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
5915 The include copy has been updated too.
5917 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.
5919 ** API and ABI modifications:
5920 No changes since last version.
5922 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
5924 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
5925 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
5926 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
5927 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
5930 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
5931 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
5932 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
5933 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
5935 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
5936 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
5937 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
5939 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
5940 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
5942 ** API and ABI modifications:
5943 No changes since last version.
5945 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
5947 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
5948 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
5949 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5951 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
5952 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
5953 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
5954 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
5956 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
5958 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
5960 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
5961 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
5962 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
5963 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
5964 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
5965 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
5966 roughly at the same time.
5968 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
5970 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
5972 ** API and ABI modifications:
5973 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
5974 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
5976 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
5977 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
5979 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
5981 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
5982 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
5983 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
5984 GNU General Public License.
5986 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
5987 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
5988 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
5989 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
5990 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5992 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
5993 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
5994 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
5995 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
5996 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
5997 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5999 ** Internal type cleanups.
6000 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
6001 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
6002 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
6003 replaced by unsigned.
6005 ** API and ABI modifications:
6006 New functions to invoke the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF):
6010 New functions to retrieve the session's client and server random values:
6011 gnutls_session_get_server_random
6012 gnutls_session_get_client_random
6014 New function, to perform TLS/IA handshake:
6017 New function to decide whether to do a TLS/IA handshake:
6018 gnutls_ia_handshake_p
6020 New functions to allocate a TLS/IA credential:
6021 gnutls_ia_allocate_client_credentials
6022 gnutls_ia_free_client_credentials
6023 gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials
6024 gnutls_ia_free_server_credentials

6031 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_ptr
6032 gnutls_ia_get_server_avp_ptr
6034 New functions, to toggle TLS/IA application phases:
6035 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase
6037 New function to mix session keys with inner secret:
6038 gnutls_ia_permute_inner_secret
6040 Low-level API (used internally by gnutls_ia_handshake):
6041 gnutls_ia_endphase_send
6045 New functions that can be used after successful TLS/IA negotiation:
6046 gnutls_ia_generate_challenge
6047 gnutls_ia_extract_inner_secret
6049 Enum type with TLS/IA modes:
6052 Enum type with TLS/IA packet types:
6055 Enum values for TLS/IA alerts:
6056 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_FAILURE
6057 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_VERIFICATION
6059 New error codes, to signal when an application phase has finished:
6060 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_IPHF_RECEIVED
6061 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_FPHF_RECEIVED
6063 New error code to signal TLS/IA verify failure:
6064 GNUTLS_E_IA_VERIFY_FAILED
6066 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
6068 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
6069 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
6071 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
6072 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
6074 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
6075 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
6077 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
6078 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
6079 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6081 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
6082 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
6083 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
6084 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
6085 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
6086 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
6087 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
6088 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
6091 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
6092 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6093 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
6095 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
6096 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
6097 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
6099 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
6100 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
6103 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
6104 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
6105 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
6108 ** API and ABI modifications:
6109 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
6110 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
6112 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
6115 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
6116 gnutls_session_get_data2
6118 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
6119 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
6121 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
6123 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
6124 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
6125 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
6126 test this functionality.
6128 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
6130 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
6132 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
6134 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.
6136 ** Fixes for Tru64 UNIX 4.0D that lack MAP_FAILED, from Albert Chin.
6138 ** Remove trailing comma in enums, for IBM C v6, from Albert Chin.
6140 ** Make sure config.h is included first in a few files, from Albert Chin.
6142 ** Don't use C++ comments ("//") as they are invalid, from Albert Chin.
6144 ** Don't install SRP programs and man pages if --disable-srp-authentication,

6150 New gnutls_credentials_type_t credential type:
6153 New credential types:
6154 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t

6185 gnutls_srp_base64_decode
6187 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
6188 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
6189 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
6190 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
6192 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
6193 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
6194 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
6195 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
6196 - API and ABI modifications:
6197 No changes since last version.
6199 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
6200 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
6201 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
6202 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
6203 The included version has been updated too.
6204 - Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
6205 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
6206 - Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
6207 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
6208 - Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
6209 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
6210 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
6211 - Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
6212 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
6213 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
6214 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
6216 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
6217 - Documentation was updated and improved.
6218 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
6219 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
6220 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
6221 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
6222 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
6223 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
6224 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
6225 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
6226 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
6227 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
6228 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
6229 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
6230 to align with the send(2) API.
6231 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
6232 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
6233 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
6234 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
6235 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
6236 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
6237 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
6238 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
6239 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
6240 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
6241 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
6242 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
6243 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
6244 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
6245 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
6246 - API and ABI modifications:
6247 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
6248 This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
6249 so we don't break backwards compatibility.
6250 GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
6251 GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
6252 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
6253 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
6255 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
6256 gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
6257 gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
6258 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
6259 used when broken signature algorithms
6260 is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
6261 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
6262 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
6263 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
6264 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
6265 version number, can be used for feature existence
6268 * Version 1.2.8 (2005-10-07)
6269 - Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
6270 - Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
6271 examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
6272 from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
6273 - If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
6274 tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
6275 validation fails. Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
6276 after certificate validation failures. Inspired from discussion
6277 with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.
6278 - The test for socklen_t has been moved to gnulib.
6279 - Link failures for duplicate or missing "program_name" symbol has been fixed,

6340 - Introduced the --fix-key option to certtool, which can be used to
6341 regenerate the (optional) parameters in a private key. It should
6342 be used together with --key-info.

6365 and made source code include external include file, to check
6366 function prototypes during compile time.
6367 - API and ABI modifications:
6368 No changes since last version. At least not intentional, but due
6369 to the include header changes, there may be inadvertant changes,
6370 please let us know if you find any.

6381 CFLAGS="-O2 -finline-functions"' to get the old optimizations.
6382 - Added the option --get-dh-params to certtool, in order to get the
6383 parameters included in the library primes and generators.

6419 gnutls_x509_rdn_get now set *sizeof_buf to the buffer length that is
6420 required, instead of the string length. That is, the value has been
6421 incremented by 1 to account for the terminating zero. Reported by
6422 Martin Lambers <marlam@web.de>.
