54 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_ocsp_resp_check_crt() to check whether the OCSP
55 response corresponds to the given certificate.
57 ** libgnutls: In client side gnutls_init() enables the session ticket and
58 OCSP certificate status request extensions by default. The flag
59 GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS can be used to prevent that.
61 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the OpenPGP code. The generating code
62 is fully RFC6091 compliant and RFC5081 support is only supported in client

108 ** libgnutls: Fixed bug in gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_system_trust()
109 and gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_mem() that prevented the loading
110 of certificates in the windows platform.
112 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug in OpenPGP subpacket encoding.
114 ** libgnutls: Added support for DTLS/TLS heartbeats by Olga Smolenchuk.
115 (the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
117 ** libgnutls: Added X.509 certificate verification flag
118 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_UNSORTED_CHAIN. This flag allows the verification
119 of unsorted certificate chains and is enabled by default for
120 TLS certificate verification (if gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags()
121 does not override it).
123 ** libgnutls: Prints warning on certificates that contain keys of
124 an insecure level. If the %COMPAT priority flag is not specified
125 the TLS connection fails.
127 ** libgnutls: Correctly restore gnutls_record_recv() in DTLS mode
128 if interrupted during the retrasmition of handshake data.
130 ** libgnutls: Better mingw32 support (patch by LRN).
132 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT keyword, if specified, will tolerate
133 key usage violation errors (they are far too common to ignore).
135 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_STATELESS_COMPRESSION flag to gnutls_init(),
136 which provides a tool to counter compression-related attacks where
137 parts of the data are controlled by the attacker _and_ are placed in
138 separate records (use with care - do not use compression if not sure).
140 ** libgnutls: Depends on libtasn1 2.14 or later.
142 ** certtool: Prints the number of bits of the public key algorithm
143 parameter in a private key.
145 ** API and ABI modifications:
146 gnutls_x509_privkey_get_pk_algorithm2: Added
147 gnutls_heartbeat_ping: Added
148 gnutls_heartbeat_pong: Added

153 GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_WEAK: Added
154 GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_INSECURE: Added
156 * Version 3.1.1 (released 2012-09-02)
158 ** gnutls-serv: Listens on IPv6. Patch by Bernhard R. Link.
160 ** certtool: Changes in password handling of certtool.
161 Ask password when required and only if the '--password' option is not
162 given. If the '--password' option is given during key generation then
163 assume the PKCS #8 file format, instead of ignoring the password.
165 ** tpmtool: No longer asks for key password in registered keys.
167 ** libgnutls: Elliptic curve code was optimized by Ilya Tumaykin.
168 wmNAF is now used for point multiplication and other optimizations.
169 (the major part of the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
171 ** libgnutls: The default pull_timeout_function only uses select
172 instead of a combination of select() and recv() to prevent issues
173 when used in stream sockets in some systems.
175 ** libgnutls: Be tolerant in ECDSA signature violations (e.g. using
176 SHA256 with a SECP384 curve instead of SHA-384), to interoperate with
179 ** libgnutls: Fixed DSA and ECDSA signature generation in smart
180 cards. Thanks to Andreas Schwier from cardcontact.de for providing
181 me with ECDSA capable smart cards.
183 ** API and ABI modifications:
184 gnutls_sign_algorithm_get: Added
185 gnutls_sign_get_hash_algorithm: Added
186 gnutls_sign_get_pk_algorithm: Added
189 * Version 3.1.0 (released 2012-08-15)
191 ** libgnutls: Added direct support for TPM as a cryptographic module
192 in gnutls/tpm.h. TPM keys can be used in functions accepting files
193 using URLs of the following types:
194 tpmkey:file=/path/to/file
195 tpmkey:uuid=7f468c16-cb7f-11e1-824d-b3a4f4b20343;storage=user
197 ** libgnutls: Priority string level keywords can be combined.
198 For example the string "SECURE256:+SUITEB128" is now allowed.
200 ** libgnutls: requires libnettle 2.5.
202 ** libgnutls: Use the PKCS #1 1.5 encoding provided by nettle (2.5)
203 for encryption and signatures.
205 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE to differentiate between
206 generic errors and signature verification errors in the verification
209 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse() as a helper function
210 to simplify parsing in most PKCS #12 use cases.
212 ** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file() adds
213 the whole certificate chain (if any) to the credentials structure, instead
214 of only the end-user certificate.
216 ** libgnutls: Key import functions such as gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse()
217 and gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8(), return consistently
218 GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED if the input structure is encrypted but no
219 password was provided.
221 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_handshake_set_timeout() a function that
222 allows to set the maximum time spent in a handshake.
224 ** libgnutlsxx: Added session::set_transport_vec_push_function. Patch
227 ** tpmtool: Added. It is a tool to generate private keys in the
230 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-tls was split to --benchmark-tls-kx
231 and --benchmark-tls-ciphers
233 ** certtool: generated PKCS #12 structures may hold more than one
234 private key. Patch by Lucas Fisher.
236 ** certtool: Added option --null-password to generate/decrypt keys
237 that use a NULL password (in schemas that distinguish between NULL

308 that prevented the loading of EC private keys when DER
309 encoded. Reported by David Woodhouse.
311 ** libgnutls: In DTLS larger to mtu records result to
312 GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET instead of being truncated.
314 ** libgnutls: gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu() is more precise. Based
315 on patch by David Woodhouse.
317 ** libgnutls: Fixed memory leak in PKCS #8 key import.
319 ** libgnutls: Added support for an old version of the DTLS protocol
320 used by openconnect vpn client for compatibility with Cisco's AnyConnect
321 SSL VPN. It is marked as GNUTLS_DTLS0_9. Do not use it for newer protocols
324 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that prevented resolving PKCS #11 URLs
325 if only the label is specified. Patch by David Woodhouse.
327 ** libgnutls: When EMSGSIZE errno is seen then GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET
330 ** API and ABI modifications:

561 ** libgnutls: Added OCSP support.
562 There is a new header file gnutls/ocsp.h and a set of new functions
563 under the gnutls_ocsp namespace. Currently the functionality provided
564 is to parse and extract information from OCSP requests/responses, to
565 generate OCSP requests and to verify OCSP responses. See the manual
566 for more information. Run ./configure with --disable-ocsp to build
567 GnuTLS without OCSP support.
569 This work was sponsored by Smoothwall <http://smoothwall.net/>.

649 ** gnutls-cli: Fixed reading from windows terminals.
651 ** libgnutls: When GNUTLS_OPENPGP_FMT_BASE64 is specified
652 the stream is assumed to be base64 encoded (previously

676 it will only list the ciphersuites that are enabled by the given
679 ** libgnutls: Added new priority string %SERVER_PRECEDENCE, which
680 changes the ciphersuite selection procedure. If specified the server
681 priorities will be used for selection instead of the client's.
683 ** libgnutls: Optimizations in Diffie-Hellman parameters generation
686 ** libgnutls: When session tickets are negotiated and used in a
687 session, a server will not store that session data into its cache.

1298 ** libgnutls: The deprecated gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash() was
1299 replaced by gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2().
1301 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
1302 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
1303 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
1304 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
1307 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
1308 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
1310 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
1312 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
1313 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),
1314 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash(), gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data(), were
1315 deprecated for gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(),
1316 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(), gnutls_privkey_sign_hash(),
1317 gnutls_privkey_sign_data(), gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash()
1318 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() respectively.
1320 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
1323 ** libgnutls: Added convenience functions gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2()
1324 and gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2().
1326 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
1327 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.

1356 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
1358 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
1359 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
1362 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
1363 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
1365 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
1367 ** API and ABI modifications:
1368 No changes since last version.
1370 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
1372 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
1373 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
1374 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
1376 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
1377 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
1379 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
1380 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
1383 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
1385 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
1386 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
1387 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
1389 ** API and ABI modifications:
1390 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
1391 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
1393 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
1395 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
1396 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
1397 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
1398 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
1401 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
1403 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
1405 ** build: Update gnulib files.
1407 ** i18n: Update translations.
1409 ** tests: Add self tests gendh.c. Speed up Guile self checks.
1411 ** API and ABI modifications:
1412 gnutls_session_channel_binding: New function.
1413 gnutls_channel_binding_t: New enumeration.
1414 GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE: New gnutls_channel_binding_t enum member.
1415 GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE: New error code.
1417 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
1419 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
1420 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
1421 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
1422 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
1424 ** API and ABI modifications:
1425 No changes since last version.
1427 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
1429 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
1430 and session tickets support.
1432 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
1434 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
1435 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
1436 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
1437 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
1438 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
1441 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
1442 introduced with the new nettle code.
1444 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
1446 ** API and ABI modifications:
1447 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
1448 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
1450 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
1452 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
1453 to use the libgcrypt back end.
1455 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
1456 backend crypto library.
1458 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
1460 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
1462 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
1463 tabs are being skipped.
1465 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
1467 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
1470 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
1471 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
1472 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
1474 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
1475 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
1476 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
1477 and 3072 keys only).
1479 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1480 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1481 is unable to decode the key.
1483 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
1485 ** API and ABI modifications:
1486 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1487 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1489 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
1491 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
1492 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
1493 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
1496 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
1497 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
1498 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
1499 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
1500 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
1501 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
1502 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
1504 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
1508 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
1510 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
1511 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
1512 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
1514 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
1517 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
1518 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
1520 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
1521 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
1523 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
1524 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
1525 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
1526 the OPRFI extension was removed.
1528 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
1530 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
1531 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
1532 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
1534 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
1536 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
1537 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
1538 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
1540 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
1541 works even when resuming a session.
1543 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
1544 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
1545 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
1546 PKCS #11 private keys.
1548 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
1549 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
1551 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
1552 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
1554 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
1555 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
1556 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
1558 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1559 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
1560 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1562 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
1565 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
1566 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
1567 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
1568 connections using a url such as:
1569 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

1650 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
1652 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
1655 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
1657 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1658 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1659 is unable to decode the key.
1661 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
1662 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
1664 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
1665 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
1667 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1668 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
1669 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1671 ** API and ABI modifications:
1672 No changes since last version.
1674 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
1676 ** API and ABI modifications:
1677 No changes since last version.
1679 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
1681 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
1682 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
1685 ** API and ABI modifications:
1686 No changes since last version.
1688 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
1690 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
1691 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
1692 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
1693 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
1694 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
1696 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
1697 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
1699 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
1701 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
1703 ** API and ABI modifications:
1704 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
1705 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
1707 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
1709 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
1710 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
1713 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
1714 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
1715 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
1717 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
1718 Solves the issue discussed in:
1719 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
1720 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
1721 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
1722 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
1723 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
1724 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
1725 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
1726 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
1728 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
1730 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
1733 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
1734 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
1735 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
1736 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
1738 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
1739 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
1740 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
1741 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
1742 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
1743 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
1744 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
1745 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
1747 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
1748 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
1749 end of the handshake.
1751 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
1752 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
1754 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
1755 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
1756 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
1757 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
1758 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
1759 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
1760 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
1761 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
1762 now different than previous gnutls releases.
1763 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
1765 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
1767 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
1769 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

1832 No changes since last version.
1834 * Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
1836 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
1837 Reported by Tang Tong.
1839 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
1840 ** extension and certificate verify field.
1841 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
1842 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
1843 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
1844 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
1847 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
1848 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
1850 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
1852 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
1853 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
1854 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
1856 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
1857 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem

1860 ** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
1861 To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
1863 ** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
1865 ** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.

1904 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
1906 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
1907 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
1908 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
1909 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad

1921 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
1922 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
1925 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
1926 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
1927 OpenPGP hostname comparison.
1929 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
1930 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
1931 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
1933 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
1934 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
1935 error, to prevent this from happening again.
1937 ** API and ABI modifications:
1938 No changes since last version.
1940 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
1942 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
1943 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
1944 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
1945 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
1947 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

1954 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
1956 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
1957 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
1958 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
1959 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
1960 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
1961 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
1962 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
1963 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
1964 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
1965 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
1966 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
1967 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
1968 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
1969 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
1971 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
1972 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
1973 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
1975 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
1977 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
1978 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
1979 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
1980 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
1982 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
1983 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
1984 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
1985 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
1986 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
1988 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
1989 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
1990 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
1991 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
1992 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.
1994 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
1995 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
1996 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
1997 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
1998 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.
2000 ** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
2001 Report and patch by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2002 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3671>
2004 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
2006 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
2007 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
2008 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2009 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
2010 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
2011 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.
2013 ** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.
2015 ** tests: Improved test vectors in self-test pkcs12_s2k.
2017 ** tests: Added new self-test dn2 to detect off-by-one size error.

2048 ** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
2049 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2050 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
2052 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
2053 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
2054 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
2056 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
2057 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
2058 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
2059 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
2060 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2061 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.

2147 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2148 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2149 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2150 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2151 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2152 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2153 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2154 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2155 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2156 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2157 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2158 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2159 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4].
2161 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
2162 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
2163 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2164 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
2166 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
2167 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
2168 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
2169 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2170 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
2172 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
2173 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
2174 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
2175 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2176 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.
2178 ** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.

2182 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
2184 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
2185 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
2186 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2187 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
2188 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
2189 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.

2201 Forwarded by Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net> from
2202 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/272388>.
2204 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
2205 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
2206 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
2207 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
2208 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.

2320 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
2321 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
2324 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
2325 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
2331 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
2332 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
2333 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
2334 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
2335 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
2336 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
2338 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
2339 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
2340 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
2341 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
2344 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
2345 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
2346 also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected

2354 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
2356 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
2357 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
2359 The following symbols have been added to the library:

2515 * Version 2.7.8 (released 2009-05-03)
2517 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2518 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2520 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2521 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
2522 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
2523 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
2524 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
2525 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
2526 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
2527 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2528 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2529 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
2531 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
2532 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
2533 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
2534 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
2535 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
2536 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
2537 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
2538 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
2541 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
2542 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
2543 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
2544 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
2545 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
2546 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
2549 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
2550 This should have been done in the last release.
2552 ** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
2553 Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2554 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3476>.
2556 ** doc: Improved sections for the info manual.
2557 We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
2558 directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
2559 'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command
2560 line tools moved from 'Network Applications' to 'System

2571 * Version 2.7.7 (released 2009-04-20)
2573 ** libgnutls: Applied patch by Cedric Bail to add functions
2574 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash() and gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm().
2576 ** gnutls.pc: Add -ltasn1 to 'pkg-config --libs --static gnutls' output.

2587 ** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
2588 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
2589 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
2591 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.

2600 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
2601 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
2603 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
2605 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
2606 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
2607 be used for chain verification.
2609 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
2610 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
2612 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
2613 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
2614 information. This avoids code duplication.
2616 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
2617 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
2618 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
2621 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
2622 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
2623 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2625 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
2627 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
2629 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
2631 ** API and ABI modifications:
2632 No changes since last version.
2634 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
2636 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2637 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2638 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2639 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2640 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2641 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2642 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2643 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2644 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2645 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
2646 <deengert@anl.gov> in
2647 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2649 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
2650 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
2652 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
2653 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
2654 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
2656 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2657 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2658 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2659 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
2660 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
2661 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2663 ** API and ABI modifications:
2664 No changes since last version.
2666 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
2668 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2669 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2670 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2671 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2672 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2673 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
2674 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
2675 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
2677 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
2678 Patch from David Marín Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
2679 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
2681 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
2683 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
2684 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
2685 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
2686 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
2687 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
2688 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
2690 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
2692 ** API and ABI modifications:
2693 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
2695 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
2697 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
2698 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in

2700 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
2701 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
2703 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
2704 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
2705 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
2706 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
2707 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
2708 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
2709 real change in behaviour.
2711 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
2712 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
2713 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
2715 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
2717 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
2718 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
2720 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
2722 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
2724 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.

2731 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2732 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2733 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2734 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2735 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
2737 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
2738 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
2740 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
2741 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
2742 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2743 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
2744 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2745 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
2746 work but are deprecated.

2867 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>. See the advisory
2868 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-1] [CVE-2009-1415]
2870 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2871 Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
2872 DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
2873 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2875 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2876 Reported by Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com>. Before the
2877 library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
2878 was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
2879 applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
2880 proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
2881 to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
2882 time (as reported by the time function) is within the
2883 activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
2886 This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
2887 turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
2888 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
2889 gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
2890 condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
2891 add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2892 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2895 More details about the vulnerabilities will be posted at

2917 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2919 ** GnuTLS no longer uses the libtasn1-config script to find libtasn1.
2920 Libtasn1 0.3.4 or later is required. This is to align with the
2921 upcoming libtasn1 v2.0 release that doesn't have a libtasn1-script.

3045 ** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
3047 *** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3049 *** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
3051 *** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3053 *** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3054 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3055 such as IP addresses.

3083 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3084 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3087 *** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3088 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3089 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
3092 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
3093 No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
3094 fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
3096 A new header file <gnutls/crypto.h> have been added. It contains
3097 definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
3098 All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
3100 We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
3101 does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
3102 and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
3104 The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
3108 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2
3109 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2
3110 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2
3111 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2
3112 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2
3113 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2
3114 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2
3115 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2
3116 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2

3128 gnutls_x509_crt_set_crl_dist_points2
3129 gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name
3131 The following functions have been added to libgnutls-extra:
3133 gnutls_register_md5_handler
3135 ** API and ABI modifications:
3136 No changes since last version.
3138 * Version 2.5.9 (released 2008-09-29)

3146 ** libgnutls: crypto.h gnutls_pk_params_st changes allocation strategy.
3147 The parameters are now allocated in the structure itself.
3149 ** doc: Texinfo HTML manual uses a stylesheet to improve readability.
3151 ** tests: Scripts now use EXEEXT properly.
3152 Modern libtool doesn't create wrapper script, so the self tests need
3153 to invoke certtool.exe under MinGW32+Wine.
3155 ** Uses autoconf 2.63, automake 1.10.1, libtool 2.2.6a.
3156 Automake warnings are now also enabled.
3158 ** API and ABI modifications:
3159 gnutls_pk_params_st: MODIFIED
3161 * Version 2.5.8 (released 2008-09-21)
3163 ** certtool: updated so it can add several subject alternative names using
3166 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3167 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3168 such as IP addresses.
3170 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in hashing code when using non-libgcrypt handlers.
3172 ** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3173 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits. Tiny patch by Kevin Quick
3174 <quick@sparq.org> in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106454>.
3176 ** libgnutls: Check for overflows in gnutls_calloc and gnutls_secure_calloc.

3198 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
3200 ** libgnutls: Don't crash when gnutls_credentials_set is called twice.
3202 ** libgnutls: Fix libgnutls shared library version.
3203 It wasn't properly incremented after adding symbols in the last
3206 ** manual: Now mention supported public key and public key signing algorithms.
3208 ** tests/openssl: initialize gnutls before use.
3210 ** tests/setcredcrash: New test to catch regressions of gnutls_credentials_set.
3212 ** GTK-DOC manual: mention new symbols in 2.6.x. Mention crypto.h functions.

3235 Thanks to James Westby <jw+debian@jameswestby.net>.
3237 ** tests: New self-test pgps2kgnu to test parsing of encrypted secrets.
3238 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3240 ** API and ABI modifications:
3241 gnutls_pk_list: ADDED
3242 gnutls_pk_get_id: ADDED
3243 gnutls_sign_list: ADDED
3244 gnutls_sign_get_id: ADDED
3246 * Version 2.5.5 (released 2008-08-29)
3248 ** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3249 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3251 ** libgnutls: Fix include paths so that building with internal libtasn1 works.
3252 Reported by "jth.net ApS" <info@jth.net>.
3254 ** libgnutls: Fix segmentation fault when generating private keys.
3255 Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3257 ** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
3258 The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
3259 it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
3260 old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
3261 to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
3262 by Christian Grothoff <christian@grothoff.org>.
3264 ** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3265 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3267 ** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
3269 ** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.
3271 ** Add French translation, thanks to Nicolas Provost.
3273 ** API and ABI modifications:
3274 gnutls_strerror_name: ADDED
3276 * Version 2.5.4 (released 2008-08-19)
3278 ** Fix secure memory initialization of libgcrypt.
3279 Reported by Joe Orton <joe@manyfish.co.uk> in
3280 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2992>.
3283 Reference to NIST SP 800-57 in the manual on key size recommendations.
3284 Added 'Since:' tags to new APIs for gtk-doc.
3286 ** API and ABI modifications:
3287 No changes since last version.
3289 * Version 2.5.3 (released 2008-08-14)
3291 ** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3292 ** from a private key.
3293 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
3294 discussion with "Zach C." <fxchip@gmail.com>.
3296 ** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3297 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3298 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3300 ** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
3301 Reported in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106453>.
3303 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3304 The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
3305 names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
3306 likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
3307 the namespace violation.
3309 ** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
3311 ** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
3313 ** API and ABI modifications:
3314 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw: ADDED
3315 gnutls_session_set_finished_function: ADDED
3316 gnutls_finished_callback_func: ADDED
3317 GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE: ADDED
3318 GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE: ADDED
3319 TLS_MASTER_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3320 TLS_RANDOM_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3322 * Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
3324 ** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
3325 The prime and generator was swapped.
3327 ** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3328 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3329 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3330 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3331 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3334 ** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
3335 This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
3336 The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
3337 libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong
3340 ** API and ABI modifications:
3341 gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
3342 gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
3343 gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED
3344 gnutls_ext_register: ADDED
3346 * Version 2.5.1 (released 2008-07-02)
3350 ** API and ABI modifications:
3351 No changes since last version.
3353 * Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
3355 ** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.
3357 ** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3358 The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
3361 ** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
3363 ** Update gnulib and translations.
3364 The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
3365 and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
3366 implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later
3369 ** API and ABI modifications:
3370 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2: ADDED.
3371 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2: ADDED.
3372 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2: ADDED.
3373 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2: ADDED.
3374 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2: ADDED.
3375 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2: ADDED.
3376 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2: ADDED.
3377 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2: ADDED.
3378 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2: ADDED.
3380 * Version 2.4.3 (released 2009-02-06)
3382 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
3383 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
3384 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
3385 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
3386 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
3387 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
3388 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
3389 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
3390 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
3391 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
3392 <deengert@anl.gov> in
3393 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3395 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
3396 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
3397 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
3398 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
3399 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
3400 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3402 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
3403 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
3404 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
3405 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
3406 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
3407 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
3408 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
3409 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.

3417 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
3418 The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
3419 problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
3420 certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org> in

3423 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
3424 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
3425 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
3426 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von

3466 If the gnutls_handshake function is called for a normal session, which
3467 can happen for re-handshakes, the library would crash because it tried
3468 to hash some data using a libgcrypt handle that had been deallocated.

3489 ** API and ABI modifications:
3490 No changes since last version.
3492 * Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
3494 ** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3496 *** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
3498 *** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
3499 *** derivation and PSK identity hints.
3500 The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
3501 draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
3503 *** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3504 This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
3505 The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3507 *** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
3509 *** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
3510 It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
3511 CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
3513 *** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3514 The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
3515 but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
3518 *** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
3520 *** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
3521 Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3523 *** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
3525 *** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
3526 *** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
3527 Thanks to Joe Orton.
3529 *** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
3531 *** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
3532 The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
3533 reflect, so the following name change has been made:
3536 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
3537 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
3538 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
3540 The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
3542 *** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
3543 *** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
3544 A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
3547 *** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
3549 *** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
3550 We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
3552 *** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
3554 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
3555 All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
3556 libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
3557 Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
3558 libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
3559 version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
3560 All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
3561 possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
3562 and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
3563 the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
3564 the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.
3566 This release adds the following functions:
3568 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint
3569 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint
3570 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key
3572 Used to get/set the PSK identity hint, and derive PSK keys from
3573 passwords a'la netconf.
3575 gnutls_x509_dn_deinit
3576 gnutls_x509_dn_export
3577 gnutls_x509_dn_import
3580 Used to handle X.509 Certificate DN's directly.
3584 Converts a data buffer to hex. Useful for handling PSK/SRP shared
3587 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
3588 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
3589 gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
3591 Functions for direct access to credential elements.
3593 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey

3634 New OpenPGP related functions.
3636 The function gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id is the same as the old
3637 from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
3639 The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
3640 is currently not used.
3642 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
3643 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3645 ** API and ABI modifications:
3646 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3647 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3649 * Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
3651 ** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
3652 It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.
3654 ** API and ABI modifications:
3655 No changes since last version.
3657 * Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
3659 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
3660 An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
3663 ** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
3664 Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
3666 ** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
3667 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3669 ** API and ABI modifications:
3670 No changes since last version.
3672 * Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
3674 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
3676 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
3678 ** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
3680 ** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
3681 The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
3682 printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
3683 follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
3684 '--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
3687 ** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
3688 Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
3690 ** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
3691 None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
3692 or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
3693 set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
3696 ** API and ABI modifications:
3697 No changes since last version.
3699 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
3701 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
3703 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
3704 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
3706 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
3707 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3709 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
3710 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
3711 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
3712 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
3713 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3715 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
3716 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
3717 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
3720 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
3721 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
3723 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
3725 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
3726 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
3727 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
3729 *** New PSK example client and server.
3730 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
3732 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
3733 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
3734 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
3735 <l@lwithers.me.uk> in
3736 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
3738 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
3739 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
3741 ** API and ABI modifications:
3742 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
3743 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
3744 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
3745 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
3747 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
3749 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3750 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3751 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3752 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
3753 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3754 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
3756 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
3757 Fixes builds under Windows.
3759 ** Make umask a requirement.
3760 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
3763 ** Update gnulib files.
3764 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
3765 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
3767 ** API and ABI modifications:
3768 No changes since last version.
3770 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
3772 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
3773 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
3775 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3776 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3777 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3778 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3779 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
3780 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3782 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3783 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3784 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3785 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3786 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3787 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3789 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3790 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3791 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3792 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3793 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3795 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3796 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3797 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3798 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3799 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3801 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
3802 Villanueva Che (discussion at
3803 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
3805 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
3807 ** API and ABI modifications:
3808 No changes since last version.
3810 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
3812 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
3813 Based on report and tiny patches from
3814 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
3815 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
3817 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
3819 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
3820 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
3822 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
3823 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
3824 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
3825 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
3826 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
3828 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
3829 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
3830 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
3831 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
3833 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
3835 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
3836 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
3837 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
3839 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
3841 ** Update of gnulib files.
3843 ** API and ABI modifications:
3844 No changes since last version.
3846 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
3848 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3849 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3850 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3851 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3852 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3853 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3855 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
3856 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
3857 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
3860 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
3861 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
3862 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
3864 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
3865 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
3867 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3868 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
3869 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3871 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
3873 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
3875 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
3876 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
3877 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
3879 ** Update of gnulib files.
3881 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
3883 ** API and ABI modifications:
3884 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
3886 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
3888 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
3890 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
3891 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
3892 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
3894 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
3896 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
3897 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
3898 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
3899 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
3900 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
3903 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
3905 ** API and ABI modifications:
3906 No changes since last version.
3908 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
3910 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
3911 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
3912 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
3913 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
3915 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
3916 Based on HPUX build hints in
3917 <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>.
3919 ** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
3920 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3921 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3923 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
3924 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
3925 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
3926 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
3927 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3928 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3930 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
3931 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
3932 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
3934 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
3936 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
3937 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
3938 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
3939 maintain an external library (help welcome).
3941 ** API and ABI modifications:
3942 No changes since last version.
3944 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
3946 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
3947 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3948 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1145>.
3950 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
3951 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
3953 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
3955 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
3956 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
3958 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
3959 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
3960 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
3962 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
3964 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
3965 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
3967 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
3969 ** Update gnulib files.
3971 ** API and ABI modifications:
3972 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
3973 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
3974 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
3975 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
3976 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
3977 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
3978 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
3979 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
3980 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
3982 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
3984 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
3985 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
3987 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
3988 override the included ones.
3990 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
3992 ** API and ABI modifications:
3993 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
3994 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
3995 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
3996 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
3997 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
3998 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
3999 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
4001 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
4003 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
4004 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4006 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
4007 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
4008 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
4009 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
4010 not documented until now.)
4012 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
4013 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
4014 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
4015 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
4016 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
4017 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
4018 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
4019 to trigger the problem. See also
4020 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
4022 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
4023 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
4025 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
4027 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
4029 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4030 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4031 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4033 ** Updated translations.
4035 ** Update gnulib files.
4037 ** API and ABI modifications:
4038 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
4039 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
4041 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
4043 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
4045 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
4047 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
4049 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.
4050 See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-02/msg00043.html>.
4052 ** Internal header files cleanup.
4054 ** API and ABI modifications:
4055 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
4056 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
4057 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
4058 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
4060 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
4062 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
4063 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
4066 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4067 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4069 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
4071 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4074 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4075 for checks without limitation.
4077 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4078 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4079 strings and return the proper size.
4081 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
4082 This collects all problems related to record padding with
4083 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
4085 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
4086 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to
4087 draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-00.txt.
4089 ** certtool can print information on OpenPGP certificates and keys.
4091 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_import/init/deinit() to access raw DER DN.
4094 ** Added gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and other functions to
4095 export elements from the certificate credentials structure. Based on
4096 suggestion from Joe Orton.
4099 Clarify that srp_base64 is not the same as normal base64.
4101 ** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.
4103 ** API and ABI modifications:
4104 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: ADDED
4105 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: ADDED
4106 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: ADDED
4107 gnutls_openpgp_keyid_t: ADDED, instead of hard-coded 'unsigned char[8]'.
4108 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id: ADDED, obsoletes gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id.
4109 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_revoked_status: ADDED
4110 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_count: ADDED

4149 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
4151 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
4152 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
4153 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
4154 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
4155 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
4156 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
4158 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
4159 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
4161 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4162 in a callback friendly way.
4164 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4166 ** Updated translations.
4168 ** Update gnulib files.
4170 ** API and ABI modifications:

4173 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
4175 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
4176 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
4177 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
4178 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
4179 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in

4185 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
4187 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
4188 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
4189 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
4190 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
4191 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to

4194 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
4195 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
4196 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4197 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4198 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
4199 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.

4214 No changes since last version.
4216 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
4218 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
4219 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
4220 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
4221 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
4222 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
4223 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
4225 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4226 Reported by Tim Mooney, see

4248 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4249 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4251 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4254 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4255 for checks without limitation.
4257 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4258 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4259 strings and return the proper size.

4273 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4275 ** API and ABI modifications:
4276 No changes since last version.
4278 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
4280 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
4282 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
4283 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
4284 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
4285 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
4287 ** Translation updates.
4288 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
4290 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
4292 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
4294 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
4296 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
4298 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
4300 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
4302 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
4304 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
4305 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
4306 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
4307 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
4308 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
4309 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
4312 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
4313 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
4315 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
4316 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
4319 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
4321 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
4322 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
4323 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
4324 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
4325 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
4326 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
4327 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
4329 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
4330 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
4333 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
4334 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
4335 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
4336 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
4338 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
4339 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
4340 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
4341 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
4342 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
4343 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
4345 *** XML related changes
4346 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
4347 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
4348 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
4349 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
4350 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
4351 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
4352 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
4353 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
4355 *** TLS Authorization related changes
4356 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
4357 only stub functions that returned an error code:
4359 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
4360 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
4361 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
4362 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
4364 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
4365 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
4366 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
4367 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
4369 *** SRP related changes
4370 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
4371 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
4372 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
4373 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
4376 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
4377 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
4378 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
4379 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
4380 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
4381 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
4382 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
4383 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
4385 *** OpenPGP related changes
4386 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
4387 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
4388 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
4390 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
4391 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
4392 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
4393 The following have been removed:
4395 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
4396 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
4397 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
4398 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
4399 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
4400 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
4401 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
4403 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
4404 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
4405 (binary or base64). The functions are:
4406 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
4407 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
4408 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
4409 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
4411 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
4412 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
4413 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
4416 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
4417 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
4418 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
4419 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
4420 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
4421 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
4422 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
4423 gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import
4424 gnutls_openpgp_key_export gnutls_openpgp_crt_export
4425 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_key_usage gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_usage

4430 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
4431 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
4432 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id

4434 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
4436 ** API and ABI modifications:
4437 No changes since last version.
4439 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
4441 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
4442 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
4443 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.

4458 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
4460 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
4461 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
4462 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
4464 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
4465 the priority string.
4467 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
4468 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().

4512 ** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
4515 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
4516 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
4517 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
4518 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
4519 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
4520 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
4521 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
4522 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
4524 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
4526 ** API and ABI modifications:
4527 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.

4546 ** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
4547 version 1 certificates.
4549 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
4550 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
4552 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
4554 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
4555 priorities preferences.
4557 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4558 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4561 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4562 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
4564 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
4565 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.

4606 * Version 2.1.3 (released 2007-10-17)
4608 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4609 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4610 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4611 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4612 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4613 lead the way with our own actions.
4615 ** Re-enabled the 256 bit ciphers in the default priorities.
4617 ** Corrected bugs in openpgp key verification using a keyring (both in

4630 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4631 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4633 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
4635 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
4636 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
4638 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
4640 ** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
4642 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4644 ** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.
4646 ** Added capability to set a callback after the client hello is received
4647 by the server in order to adjust parameters before the handshake.
4649 ** SRP was corrected to adhere to the latest draft (published soon as RFC)
4651 ** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting
4654 ** Updated the DN parser which now prints wrongly decoded values as hex
4657 ** certtool: Add option --quick-random.
4658 For generating low security test credentials.

4673 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME: DEPRECATED
4675 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
4677 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
4678 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
4679 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
4680 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
4681 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.
4683 ** Properly document in the NEWS file the API change in the last release.
4685 ** API and ABI modifications:
4686 No changes since last version.
4688 * Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
4690 ** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
4691 The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
4692 by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
4693 yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.
4696 ** Example code: Fix compilation flaw under MinGW.
4698 ** API and ABI modifications:
4699 gnutls_oprfi_callback_func: ADD, new typedef function prototype.
4700 gnutls_oprfi_enable_client: ADD, new function.
4701 gnutls_oprfi_enable_server: ADD, new function.
4703 * Version 2.0.4 (released 2007-11-16)
4705 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
4707 ** API and ABI modifications:
4708 No changes since last version.
4710 * Version 2.0.3 (released 2007-11-10)
4712 ** This version backports several fixes from the 2.1.x branch.
4714 ** Fixed PKCS #3 parameter export.
4716 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4717 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4720 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4721 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
4723 ** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting
4726 ** API and ABI modifications:
4727 gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode: ADDED
4728 gnutls_record_disable_padding: ADDED
4730 * Version 2.0.2 (released 2007-10-17)
4732 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4733 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4734 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4735 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4736 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4737 lead the way with our own actions.
4739 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4741 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
4743 ** API and ABI modifications:
4744 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4745 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4747 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
4749 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
4750 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
4751 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
4753 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
4754 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
4755 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
4756 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
4758 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
4760 ** API and ABI modifications:
4761 No changes since last version.
4763 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
4765 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
4767 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
4769 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
4771 ** API and ABI modifications:
4772 No changes since last version.
4774 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
4776 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
4777 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
4778 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
4780 ** Update gnulib files.
4781 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
4782 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
4783 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
4784 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
4785 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
4786 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
4790 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
4792 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
4794 ** API and ABI modifications:
4795 No changes since last version.
4797 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
4799 ** Install images for the info manual.
4800 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
4801 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
4802 discussions on the approach chosen.
4804 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
4805 Patch extracted from
4806 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
4808 ** Fix warnings during build.
4809 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4811 ** API and ABI modifications:
4812 No changes since last version.
4814 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
4816 ** New functions to perform external signing.
4817 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
4818 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
4819 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
4820 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
4821 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
4822 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
4823 comments and testing.
4825 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
4826 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
4827 the new external signing callback interface.
4829 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
4830 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
4831 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
4832 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
4833 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
4834 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
4835 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
4836 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
4839 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
4840 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
4841 let's not enable it just yet.
4843 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
4844 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
4845 names without the '_t' suffix.
4847 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
4848 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4850 ** More documentation fixes.
4851 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4852 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4854 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
4855 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
4856 <po@danielnylander.se>.
4858 ** API and ABI modifications:
4859 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
4860 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
4861 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
4862 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
4863 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
4864 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
4865 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
4867 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
4869 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
4870 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
4871 suitable certificate was found.
4873 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
4874 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
4876 ** Documentation fixes.
4877 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4878 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4880 ** Update gnulib files.
4882 ** API and ABI modifications:
4883 No changes since last version.
4885 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
4887 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
4889 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
4890 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
4891 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
4892 libguile.h header installed.
4894 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
4895 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
4896 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
4897 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
4898 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
4899 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
4900 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
4902 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
4904 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.
4905 Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4907 ** Add Malay message translations.
4908 Thanks to Sharuzzaman Ahmat Raslan <sharuzzaman@myrealbox.com>.
4910 ** API and ABI modifications:
4911 No changes since last version.
4913 * Version 1.7.14 (released 2007-06-26)
4915 ** Don't enable Guile bindings unless we have Guile 1.8 or later.
4916 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4918 ** Fix memory leak during DSA signature verification.
4919 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4921 ** Fix crash in gnutls-cli when TLS handshake fails.
4922 Reported by Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and Andreas
4923 Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> via Debian BTS #429183, see
4924 <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.

4927 Patch from Timo Schulz <twoaday@freakmail.de> and Ludovic Courtès
4928 <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4930 ** Fix off-by-one in TLS 1.2 handshake.
4931 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4933 ** Minor Guile binding self-test cleanup.
4934 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.

4939 No changes since last version.
4941 * Version 1.7.13 (released 2007-06-11)
4943 ** OpenCDK copy updated to version 0.6.3.
4945 ** Build fixes for GnuTLS Guile bindings.
4946 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4948 ** Build fix for GTK-DOC manual.
4950 ** Update gnulib files.
4952 ** API and ABI modifications:
4953 No changes since last version.
4955 * Version 1.7.12 (released 2007-06-08)
4957 ** Guile bindings for GnuTLS have been included.
4958 Contributed by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>. There is a
4959 new chapter 'Guile Bindings' in the manual.
4961 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
4962 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
4963 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
4964 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
4966 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
4967 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
4968 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
4971 Reported by Dennis Vshivkov <walrus@amur.ru>, see
4972 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333050>. Added
4973 self-test tests/parse_ca.c to test regressions.
4975 ** Fix build failures related to missing images in manual.
4976 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4978 ** Update gnulib files.
4980 ** API and ABI modifications:
4981 No changes since last version.
4983 * Version 1.7.11 (released 2007-05-26)
4985 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
4986 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4988 ** API and ABI modifications:
4989 No changes since last version.
4991 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
4993 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
4994 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
4996 ** Update of gnulib files.
4998 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
4999 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
5001 ** API and ABI modifications:
5002 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5003 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5005 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
5007 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
5008 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
5010 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
5011 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
5012 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
5013 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
5014 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
5015 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
5017 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
5019 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
5021 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5022 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5023 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5024 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5025 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5026 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5027 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5029 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5031 ** API and ABI modifications:
5032 No changes since last version.
5034 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
5036 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
5037 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
5039 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
5040 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
5042 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
5043 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
5044 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
5045 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
5046 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
5047 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
5048 been approved by the IETF.
5050 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
5051 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
5052 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
5054 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
5056 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
5057 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5059 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
5060 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
5061 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
5063 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
5064 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
5065 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
5066 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
5067 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5069 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
5071 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
5073 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
5074 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
5075 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
5076 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
5079 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
5080 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
5082 ** API and ABI modifications:
5083 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
5084 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
5085 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,
5086 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer: ADD.
5087 gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava: ADD.
5088 gnutls_cipher_list: ADD.
5089 gnutls_mac_list: ADD.
5090 gnutls_compression_list: ADD.
5091 gnutls_protocol_list: ADD.
5092 gnutls_certificate_type_list: ADD.
5093 gnutls_kx_list: ADD.
5094 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
5096 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
5098 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
5099 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
5100 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
5102 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5103 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
5105 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5106 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
5107 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
5108 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
5110 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5111 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
5113 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
5114 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
5116 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
5117 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
5119 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
5120 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
5122 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
5123 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
5124 string in the provided buffer.
5126 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
5127 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
5128 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
5130 ** API and ABI modifications:
5131 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
5132 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5133 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5134 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
5135 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
5136 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
5137 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
5138 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
5139 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
5140 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
5141 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
5142 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5143 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
5144 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
5146 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
5148 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
5149 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
5150 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
5151 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
5152 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
5153 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
5154 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
5155 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
5157 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
5158 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
5159 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
5161 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
5162 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
5163 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
5164 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
5166 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
5167 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
5168 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
5169 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
5171 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
5172 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
5174 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
5175 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
5178 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
5179 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5181 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
5182 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
5183 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
5187 ** API and ABI modifications:
5188 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
5189 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
5190 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
5191 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
5192 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
5193 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
5194 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5195 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5197 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
5199 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
5202 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
5204 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5205 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
5207 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
5208 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
5209 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
5211 ** Update of gnulib files.
5213 ** API and ABI modifications:
5214 No changes since last version.
5216 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
5218 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
5219 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
5220 testing all new hashes.
5222 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
5224 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
5226 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
5228 ** Update of gnulib files.
5230 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
5231 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
5232 missing unless the template specify it.
5234 ** API and ABI modifications:
5237 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
5240 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
5241 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
5242 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
5243 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
5245 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
5247 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
5248 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
5249 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
5250 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
5251 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
5252 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
5253 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
5254 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
5255 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
5257 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
5258 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
5260 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
5262 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
5264 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
5265 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
5266 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
5268 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
5269 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
5270 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
5273 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
5275 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
5276 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
5278 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
5279 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5281 ** Update of gnulib files.
5283 ** API and ABI modifications:
5284 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
5285 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
5286 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
5288 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
5290 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
5292 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
5293 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
5294 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5296 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
5297 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
5298 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
5299 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
5300 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
5301 will continue to be supported.
5303 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
5304 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
5305 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
5306 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
5308 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
5309 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
5310 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
5311 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5313 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
5314 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
5315 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
5316 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
5317 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
5318 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
5320 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
5321 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5323 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
5324 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
5325 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
5327 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
5328 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
5330 ** Update of gnulib files.
5332 ** API and ABI modifications:
5333 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
5334 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
5335 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5336 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5338 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5340 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
5341 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
5342 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
5343 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5345 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
5346 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5348 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5349 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5350 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5352 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5353 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
5354 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5356 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5357 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5358 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5359 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5360 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5363 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
5364 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5366 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
5367 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
5368 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
5370 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
5371 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
5373 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
5375 ** Update of gnulib files.
5377 ** API and ABI modifications:
5378 No changes since last version.
5380 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
5382 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
5383 The details is that the protocol priority set by
5384 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
5385 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
5387 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
5388 The client has been successfully tested against
5389 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
5391 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
5393 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
5395 ** Update of gnulib files.
5397 ** API and ABI modifications:
5398 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
5400 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
5402 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5403 This fixes the following error message:
5404 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5405 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5407 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
5409 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5410 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
5411 from the 1.7.x branch, see
5412 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
5414 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
5415 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
5416 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
5417 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
5419 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
5420 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
5421 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5423 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
5424 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
5425 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
5426 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
5427 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
5429 ** API and ABI modifications:
5430 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5431 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5433 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
5435 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5436 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5437 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5438 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5439 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5440 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5441 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5443 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
5444 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
5445 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
5446 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
5447 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
5448 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
5450 ** Updated translations.
5452 ** API and ABI modifications:
5453 No changes since last version.
5455 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5457 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5458 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5459 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5461 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5462 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5464 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5465 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5466 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5467 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5468 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5471 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5472 This fixes the following error message:
5473 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5474 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5476 ** API and ABI modifications:
5477 No changes since last version.
5479 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
5481 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
5482 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
5484 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
5485 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
5486 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
5488 *** Windows is a supported platform.
5489 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
5490 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
5491 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
5492 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
5494 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
5495 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
5496 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
5497 1.5.4 for more information.
5499 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
5501 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
5503 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
5504 This was forgotten in the last release.
5506 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
5507 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5509 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
5511 ** Update of gnulib files.
5513 ** API and ABI modifications:
5514 No changes since last version.
5516 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
5518 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
5519 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
5520 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
5521 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
5522 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
5523 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
5524 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
5525 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
5526 of these functions. It is recommended to use
5527 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
5528 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
5529 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
5530 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5532 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
5533 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
5535 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
5536 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
5537 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
5539 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
5540 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
5541 important fix is to change the return value of
5542 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
5543 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
5544 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
5545 compatible with 'int').
5547 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
5548 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
5549 ** instead of the lowest.
5550 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
5552 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
5553 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
5554 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
5555 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
5557 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
5558 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
5559 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
5561 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
5563 ** Update of gnulib files.
5565 ** API and ABI modifications:
5566 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
5567 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
5569 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
5571 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
5572 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
5573 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
5574 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
5575 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
5577 ** Re-factor self tests.
5579 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
5581 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
5583 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
5585 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
5586 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
5587 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
5588 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
5591 ** API and ABI modifications:
5592 No changes since last version.
5594 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
5596 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
5597 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
5598 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
5599 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
5600 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
5601 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
5602 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5604 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
5605 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
5606 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"
5607 <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
5609 ** Add version script for the GnuTLS C++ library.
5610 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5612 ** Fix the C++ compiler detection logic.
5613 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5615 ** Update of gnulib files.
5617 ** API and ABI modifications:
5618 No changes since last version.
5620 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
5622 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5623 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5624 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5625 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
5626 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5627 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
5628 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka
5629 OIWA <y.oiwa@aist.go.jp>.
5631 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more

5634 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
5636 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
5637 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
5638 indicate that the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
5639 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
5641 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
5642 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5644 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
5645 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
5646 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
5647 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5649 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
5650 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
5651 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
5652 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
5654 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
5656 ** API and ABI modifications:
5657 No changes since last version.
5659 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
5661 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
5663 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5665 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
5666 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
5667 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
5668 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
5669 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
5670 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
5671 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
5672 create *.def files, which are installed.
5674 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
5675 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
5676 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
5679 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".
5680 You may unconditionally disable it with --disable-cxx. See

5713 * Version 1.4.4 (released 2006-09-12)
5715 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
5716 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
5717 ** verification logic flaw.
5718 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
5719 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
5722 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
5723 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
5724 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
5725 oracle in typical recommended situations.
5727 ** API and ABI modifications:
5728 No changes since last version.
5730 * Version 1.4.3 (released 2006-09-08)
5732 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5733 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5734 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5735 empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be used to
5736 alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5737 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
5738 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka

5756 * Version 1.4.2 (released 2006-08-12)
5758 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
5759 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
5760 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
5761 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
5762 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
5763 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
5764 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
5765 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
5766 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
5767 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.

5771 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
5773 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5774 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
5776 ** API and ABI modifications:
5777 No changes since last version.
5779 * Version 1.4.1 (released 2006-06-14)
5781 ** Replaced inactive ifdefs to enable openpgp support in test programs.
5783 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5785 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.

5796 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
5798 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
5800 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
5801 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
5802 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
5805 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
5807 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
5809 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
5811 ** API and ABI modifications:
5812 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
5813 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
5814 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
5815 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
5817 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
5819 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
5821 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
5822 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
5823 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
5824 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
5825 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
5826 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
5827 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
5828 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
5829 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
5831 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
5832 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
5834 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
5836 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
5837 The include copy has been updated too.
5839 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.
5841 ** API and ABI modifications:
5842 No changes since last version.
5844 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
5846 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
5847 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
5848 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
5849 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
5852 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
5853 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
5854 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
5855 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
5857 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
5858 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
5859 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
5861 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
5862 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
5864 ** API and ABI modifications:
5865 No changes since last version.
5867 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
5869 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
5870 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
5871 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5873 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
5874 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
5875 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
5876 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
5878 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
5880 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
5882 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
5883 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
5884 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
5885 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
5886 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
5887 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
5888 roughly at the same time.
5890 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
5892 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
5894 ** API and ABI modifications:
5895 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
5896 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
5898 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
5899 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
5901 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
5903 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
5904 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
5905 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
5906 GNU General Public License.
5908 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
5909 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
5910 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
5911 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
5912 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5914 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
5915 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
5916 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
5917 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
5918 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
5919 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5921 ** Internal type cleanups.
5922 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
5923 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
5924 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
5925 replaced by unsigned.
5927 ** API and ABI modifications:
5928 New functions to invoke the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF):
5932 New functions to retrieve the session's client and server random values:
5933 gnutls_session_get_server_random
5934 gnutls_session_get_client_random
5936 New function, to perform TLS/IA handshake:
5939 New function to decide whether to do a TLS/IA handshake:

5953 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_ptr
5954 gnutls_ia_get_server_avp_ptr
5956 New functions, to toggle TLS/IA application phases:
5957 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase
5959 New function to mix session keys with inner secret:
5960 gnutls_ia_permute_inner_secret
5962 Low-level API (used internally by gnutls_ia_handshake):
5963 gnutls_ia_endphase_send
5967 New functions that can be used after successful TLS/IA negotiation:
5968 gnutls_ia_generate_challenge
5969 gnutls_ia_extract_inner_secret
5971 Enum type with TLS/IA modes:
5974 Enum type with TLS/IA packet types:
5977 Enum values for TLS/IA alerts:
5978 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_FAILURE
5979 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_VERIFICATION
5981 New error codes, to signal when an application phase has finished:
5982 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_IPHF_RECEIVED
5983 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_FPHF_RECEIVED
5985 New error code to signal TLS/IA verify failure:
5986 GNUTLS_E_IA_VERIFY_FAILED
5988 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
5990 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
5991 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
5993 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
5994 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
5996 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
5997 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5999 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
6000 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
6001 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6003 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
6004 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
6005 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
6006 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
6007 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
6008 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
6009 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
6010 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
6013 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
6014 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6015 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
6017 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
6018 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
6019 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
6021 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
6022 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
6025 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
6026 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
6027 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
6030 ** API and ABI modifications:
6031 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
6032 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
6034 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
6037 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
6038 gnutls_session_get_data2
6040 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
6041 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
6043 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
6045 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
6046 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
6047 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
6048 test this functionality.
6050 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
6052 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
6054 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
6056 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.

6109 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
6110 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
6111 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
6112 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
6114 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
6115 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
6116 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
6117 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
6118 - API and ABI modifications:
6119 No changes since last version.
6121 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
6122 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
6123 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
6124 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
6125 The included version has been updated too.
6126 - Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
6127 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
6128 - Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
6129 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
6130 - Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
6131 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
6132 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
6133 - Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
6134 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
6135 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
6136 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
6138 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
6139 - Documentation was updated and improved.
6140 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
6141 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
6142 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
6143 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
6144 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
6145 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
6146 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
6147 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
6148 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
6149 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
6150 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
6151 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
6152 to align with the send(2) API.
6153 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
6154 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
6155 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
6156 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
6157 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
6158 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
6159 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
6160 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
6161 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
6162 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
6163 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
6164 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
6165 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
6166 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
6167 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
6168 - API and ABI modifications:
6169 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
