221 for this functionality will be dropped in later versions.
223 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
224 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
225 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
226 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
229 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
230 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
232 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
234 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
235 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),

242 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
245 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_transport_set_vec_push_function() that
246 can be used to specify a writev() like function. Using that gnutls
247 can provide more efficient writes to network layer in systems that
250 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
251 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.

289 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
291 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
292 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
295 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
296 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
298 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
300 ** API and ABI modifications:
301 No changes since last version.
303 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
305 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
306 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
307 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
309 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
310 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
312 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
313 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
316 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
318 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
319 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
320 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
322 ** API and ABI modifications:
323 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
324 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
326 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
328 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
329 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
330 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
331 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
334 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
336 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
338 ** build: Update gnulib files.
340 ** i18n: Update translations.

350 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
352 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
353 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
354 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
355 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
357 ** API and ABI modifications:
358 No changes since last version.
360 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
362 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
363 and session tickets support.
365 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
367 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
368 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
369 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
370 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
371 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
374 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
375 introduced with the new nettle code.
377 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
379 ** API and ABI modifications:
380 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
381 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
383 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
385 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
386 to use the libgcrypt back end.
388 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
389 backend crypto library.
391 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
393 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
395 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
396 tabs are being skipped.
398 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
400 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
403 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
404 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
405 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
407 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
408 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
409 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
412 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
413 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
414 is unable to decode the key.
416 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
418 ** API and ABI modifications:
419 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
420 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
422 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
424 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
425 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
426 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
429 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
430 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
431 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
432 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
433 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
434 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
435 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
437 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
441 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
443 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
444 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
445 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
447 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
450 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
451 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
453 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
454 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
456 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
457 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
458 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
459 the OPRFI extension was removed.
461 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
463 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
464 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
465 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
467 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
469 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
470 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
471 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
473 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
474 works even when resuming a session.
476 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
477 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
478 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
479 PKCS #11 private keys.
481 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
482 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
484 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
485 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
487 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
488 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
489 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
491 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
492 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
493 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
495 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
498 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
499 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
500 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
501 connections using a url such as:
502 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

583 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
585 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
588 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
590 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
591 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
592 is unable to decode the key.
594 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
595 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
597 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
598 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
600 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
601 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
602 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
604 ** API and ABI modifications:
605 No changes since last version.
607 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
609 ** API and ABI modifications:
610 No changes since last version.
612 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
614 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
615 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
618 ** API and ABI modifications:
619 No changes since last version.
621 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
623 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
624 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
625 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
626 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
627 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
629 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
630 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
632 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
634 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
636 ** API and ABI modifications:
637 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
638 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
640 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
642 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
643 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
646 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
647 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
648 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
650 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
651 Solves the issue discussed in:
652 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
653 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
654 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
655 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
656 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
657 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
658 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
659 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
661 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
663 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
666 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
667 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
668 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
669 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
671 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
672 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
673 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
674 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
675 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
676 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
677 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
678 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
680 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
681 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
682 end of the handshake.
684 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
685 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
687 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
688 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
689 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
690 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
691 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
692 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
693 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
694 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
695 now different than previous gnutls releases.
696 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
698 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
700 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
702 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

765 No changes since last version.
767 * Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
769 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
770 Reported by Tang Tong.
772 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
773 ** extension and certificate verify field.
774 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
775 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
776 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
777 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
780 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
781 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
783 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
785 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
786 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
787 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
789 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
790 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem
791 introduced for the v2.8.x branch in 2.7.6.
793 ** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
794 To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
796 ** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
798 ** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.
799 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in

830 * Version 2.9.6 (released 2009-09-22)
832 ** libgnutls: Enable Camellia ciphers by default.
834 ** API and ABI modifications:
835 No changes since last version.
837 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
839 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
840 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
841 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
842 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad

850 * Version 2.9.4 (released 2009-09-03)
852 ** libgnutls: Client-side TLS 1.2 and SHA-256 ciphersuites now works.
853 The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
854 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
855 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
858 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
859 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
860 OpenPGP hostname comparison.
862 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
863 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
864 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
866 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
867 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
868 error, to prevent this from happening again.
870 ** API and ABI modifications:
871 No changes since last version.
873 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
875 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
876 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
877 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
878 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
880 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

885 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server: ADDED.
887 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
889 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
890 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
891 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
892 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
893 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
894 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
895 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
896 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
897 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
898 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
899 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
900 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
901 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
902 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
904 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
905 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
906 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
908 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
910 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
911 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
912 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
913 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
915 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
916 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
917 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
918 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
919 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
921 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
922 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
923 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
924 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
925 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.
927 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
928 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
929 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
930 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
931 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.
933 ** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
934 Report and patch by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
935 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3671>
937 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
939 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
940 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
941 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
942 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
943 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
944 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.
946 ** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.
948 ** tests: Improved test vectors in self-test pkcs12_s2k.
950 ** tests: Added new self-test dn2 to detect off-by-one size error.
952 ** tests: Fix failure in "chainverify" because a certificate have expired.
954 ** API and ABI modifications:
955 No changes since last version.
957 * Version 2.9.1 (released 2009-06-08)
959 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in gnutls_global_init after earlier init/deinit cycle.
960 Forwarded by Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net> from
961 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/272388>.
963 ** tests: Added new self-tests init_roundtrip.c to detect previous problem.

976 ** API and ABI modifications:
977 No changes since last version.
979 * Version 2.8.6 (released 2010-03-15)
981 ** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
982 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
983 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
985 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
986 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
987 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
989 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
990 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
991 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
992 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
993 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
994 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.

1051 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
1052 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
1054 ** API and ABI modifications:
1055 No changes since last version.
1057 * Version 2.8.3 (released 2009-08-13)
1059 ** libgnutls: Fix patch for NUL in CN/SAN in last release.
1060 Code intended to be removed would lead to an read-out-bound error in
1061 some situations. Reported by Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>. A CVE
1062 code have been allocated for the vulnerability: [CVE-2009-2730].
1064 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
1065 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
1066 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
1068 ** libgnutls-extra, libgnutls-openssl: Fix MinGW cross-compiling build error.
1070 ** tests: Made self-test mini-eagain take less time.
1074 ** API and ABI modifications:
1075 No changes since last version.
1077 * Version 2.8.2 (released 2009-08-10)
1079 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
1080 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
1081 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
1082 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
1083 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
1084 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
1085 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
1086 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
1087 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
1088 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
1089 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
1090 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
1091 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
1092 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4].
1094 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
1095 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
1096 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
1097 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
1099 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
1100 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
1101 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
1102 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
1103 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
1105 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
1106 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
1107 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
1108 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
1109 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.

1115 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
1117 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
1118 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
1119 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
1120 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
1121 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler

1253 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
1254 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
1257 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
1258 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
1264 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
1265 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
1266 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
1267 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
1268 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
1269 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
1271 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
1272 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
1273 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
1274 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
1277 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
1278 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
1279 also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected

1287 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
1289 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
1290 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
1292 The following symbols have been added to the library:

1448 * Version 2.7.8 (released 2009-05-03)
1450 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
1451 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
1453 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
1454 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
1455 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
1456 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
1457 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
1458 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
1459 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
1460 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
1461 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
1462 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
1464 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
1465 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
1466 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
1467 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
1468 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
1469 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
1470 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
1471 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
1474 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
1475 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
1476 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
1477 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
1478 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
1479 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
1482 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
1483 This should have been done in the last release.
1485 ** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
1486 Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
1487 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3476>.
1489 ** doc: Improved sections for the info manual.
1490 We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
1491 directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
1492 'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command
1493 line tools moved from 'Network Applications' to 'System

1513 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.8.
1514 GnuTLS is also internally ready to be used with libtasn1 v2.0.
1516 ** doc: Fix build failure of errcodes/printlist.
1517 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org> in
1518 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3435>.
1520 ** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
1521 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
1522 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
1524 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.
1525 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>
1527 ** API and ABI modifications:
1528 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
1529 gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
1531 * Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
1533 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
1534 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
1536 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
1538 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
1539 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
1540 be used for chain verification.
1542 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
1543 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
1545 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
1546 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
1547 information. This avoids code duplication.
1549 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
1550 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
1551 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
1554 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
1555 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
1556 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
1558 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
1560 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
1562 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
1564 ** API and ABI modifications:
1565 No changes since last version.
1567 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
1569 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
1570 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
1571 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
1572 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
1573 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
1574 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
1575 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
1576 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
1577 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
1578 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
1579 <deengert@anl.gov> in
1580 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
1582 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
1583 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
1585 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
1586 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
1587 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
1589 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
1590 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
1591 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
1592 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
1593 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
1594 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
1596 ** API and ABI modifications:
1597 No changes since last version.
1599 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
1601 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
1602 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
1603 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
1604 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
1605 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
1606 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
1607 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
1608 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
1610 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
1611 Patch from David Marín Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
1612 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
1614 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
1616 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
1617 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
1618 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
1619 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
1620 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
1621 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
1623 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
1625 ** API and ABI modifications:
1626 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
1628 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
1630 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
1631 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in

1633 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
1634 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
1636 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
1637 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
1638 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
1639 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
1640 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
1641 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
1642 real change in behaviour.
1644 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
1645 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
1646 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
1648 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
1650 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
1651 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
1653 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
1655 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
1657 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
1659 ** API and ABI modifications:
1660 No changes since last version.
1662 * Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
1664 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
1665 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
1666 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
1667 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
1668 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
1670 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
1671 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
1673 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
1674 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
1675 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
1676 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
1677 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
1678 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
1679 work but are deprecated.
1681 ** certtool: allow setting arbitrary key purpose object identifiers.
1683 ** libgnutls: Fix detection of C99 macros, to make debug logging work again.
1685 ** libgnutls: Add missing prototype for gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.

1799 ** libgnutls: Corrected double free on signature verification failure.
1800 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>. See the advisory
1801 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-1] [CVE-2009-1415]
1803 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
1804 Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
1805 DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
1806 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
1808 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
1809 Reported by Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com>. Before the
1810 library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
1811 was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
1812 applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
1813 proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
1814 to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
1815 time (as reported by the time function) is within the
1816 activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
1819 This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
1820 turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
1821 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
1822 gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
1823 condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
1824 add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
1825 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new

1850 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
1852 ** GnuTLS no longer uses the libtasn1-config script to find libtasn1.
1853 Libtasn1 0.3.4 or later is required. This is to align with the
1854 upcoming libtasn1 v2.0 release that doesn't have a libtasn1-script.

1974 from Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>.
1976 ** certtool: Use inet_pton for parsing IPv6 addresses.
1978 ** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
1980 *** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
1982 *** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
1984 *** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
1986 *** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
1987 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
1988 such as IP addresses.
1990 *** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
1991 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
1993 *** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
1994 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
1995 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id.
1997 *** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
1998 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
2000 *** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
2001 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
2003 *** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
2004 *** from a private key.
2005 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw.
2007 *** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
2008 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
2009 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
2011 *** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
2013 *** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
2014 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
2015 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
2016 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
2017 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
2020 *** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
2021 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
2022 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
2025 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
2026 No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
2027 fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
2029 A new header file <gnutls/crypto.h> have been added. It contains
2030 definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
2031 All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
2033 We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
2034 does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
2035 and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
2037 The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
2041 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2
2042 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2
2043 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2
2044 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2
2045 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2
2046 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2
2047 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2
2048 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2
2049 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2
2054 gnutls_session_set_finished_function

2064 The following functions have been added to libgnutls-extra:
2066 gnutls_register_md5_handler
2068 ** API and ABI modifications:
2069 No changes since last version.

2077 Report and patch by Jonathan Manktelow.
2079 ** libgnutls: crypto.h gnutls_pk_params_st changes allocation strategy.
2080 The parameters are now allocated in the structure itself.
2082 ** doc: Texinfo HTML manual uses a stylesheet to improve readability.
2084 ** tests: Scripts now use EXEEXT properly.
2085 Modern libtool doesn't create wrapper script, so the self tests need
2086 to invoke certtool.exe under MinGW32+Wine.
2088 ** Uses autoconf 2.63, automake 1.10.1, libtool 2.2.6a.
2089 Automake warnings are now also enabled.

2092 gnutls_pk_params_st: MODIFIED
2094 * Version 2.5.8 (released 2008-09-21)
2096 ** certtool: updated so it can add several subject alternative names using
2099 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
2100 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
2101 such as IP addresses.
2103 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in hashing code when using non-libgcrypt handlers.
2105 ** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
2106 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits. Tiny patch by Kevin Quick
2107 <quick@sparq.org> in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106454>.
2109 ** libgnutls: Check for overflows in gnutls_calloc and gnutls_secure_calloc.

2175 gnutls_pk_get_id: ADDED
2176 gnutls_sign_list: ADDED
2177 gnutls_sign_get_id: ADDED
2179 * Version 2.5.5 (released 2008-08-29)
2181 ** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
2182 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
2184 ** libgnutls: Fix include paths so that building with internal libtasn1 works.
2185 Reported by "jth.net ApS" <info@jth.net>.
2187 ** libgnutls: Fix segmentation fault when generating private keys.
2188 Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
2190 ** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
2191 The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
2192 it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
2193 old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
2194 to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
2195 by Christian Grothoff <christian@grothoff.org>.
2197 ** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
2198 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
2200 ** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
2202 ** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.
2204 ** Add French translation, thanks to Nicolas Provost.

2207 gnutls_strerror_name: ADDED
2209 * Version 2.5.4 (released 2008-08-19)
2211 ** Fix secure memory initialization of libgcrypt.
2212 Reported by Joe Orton <joe@manyfish.co.uk> in
2213 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2992>.
2216 Reference to NIST SP 800-57 in the manual on key size recommendations.
2217 Added 'Since:' tags to new APIs for gtk-doc.
2219 ** API and ABI modifications:
2220 No changes since last version.
2222 * Version 2.5.3 (released 2008-08-14)
2224 ** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
2225 ** from a private key.
2226 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
2227 discussion with "Zach C." <fxchip@gmail.com>.
2229 ** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
2230 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
2231 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
2233 ** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
2234 Reported in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106453>.
2236 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
2237 The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
2238 names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
2239 likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
2240 the namespace violation.
2242 ** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
2244 ** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
2246 ** API and ABI modifications:
2247 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw: ADDED
2248 gnutls_session_set_finished_function: ADDED
2249 gnutls_finished_callback_func: ADDED
2250 GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE: ADDED
2251 GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE: ADDED
2252 TLS_MASTER_SIZE: DEPRECATED
2253 TLS_RANDOM_SIZE: DEPRECATED
2255 * Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
2257 ** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
2258 The prime and generator was swapped.
2260 ** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
2261 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
2262 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
2263 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
2264 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
2267 ** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
2268 This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
2269 The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
2270 libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong
2273 ** API and ABI modifications:
2274 gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
2275 gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
2276 gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED
2277 gnutls_ext_register: ADDED
2279 * Version 2.5.1 (released 2008-07-02)
2283 ** API and ABI modifications:
2284 No changes since last version.
2286 * Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
2288 ** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.
2290 ** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
2291 The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
2294 ** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
2296 ** Update gnulib and translations.
2297 The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
2298 and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
2299 implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later
2302 ** API and ABI modifications:
2303 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2: ADDED.
2304 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2: ADDED.
2305 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2: ADDED.
2306 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2: ADDED.
2307 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2: ADDED.
2308 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2: ADDED.
2309 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2: ADDED.
2310 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2: ADDED.
2311 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2: ADDED.
2313 * Version 2.4.3 (released 2009-02-06)
2315 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2316 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2317 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2318 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2319 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2320 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2321 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2322 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2323 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2324 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
2325 <deengert@anl.gov> in
2326 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2328 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2329 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2330 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2331 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
2332 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
2333 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2335 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2336 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2337 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2338 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2339 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2340 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
2341 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
2342 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
2344 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
2345 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
2346 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by

2348 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
2350 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
2351 The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
2352 problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
2353 certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org> in
2354 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=505279>.
2356 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2357 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2358 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2359 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2360 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]

2398 ** libgnutls: Fix local crash in gnutls_handshake. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-2]
2399 If the gnutls_handshake function is called for a normal session, which
2400 can happen for re-handshakes, the library would crash because it tried
2401 to hash some data using a libgcrypt handle that had been deallocated.
2402 Report and tiny patch from Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com>. Any updates
2403 with more details about this vulnerability will be added to

2419 Report and tiny patch by Matthias Koenig <mkoenig@suse.de> in

2422 ** API and ABI modifications:
2423 No changes since last version.
2425 * Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
2427 ** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
2429 *** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
2431 *** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
2432 *** derivation and PSK identity hints.
2433 The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
2434 draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
2436 *** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
2437 This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
2438 The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
2440 *** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
2442 *** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
2443 It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
2444 CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
2446 *** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
2447 The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
2448 but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
2451 *** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
2453 *** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
2454 Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
2456 *** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
2458 *** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
2459 *** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
2460 Thanks to Joe Orton.
2462 *** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
2464 *** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
2465 The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
2466 reflect, so the following name change has been made:
2469 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
2470 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
2471 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
2473 The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
2475 *** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
2476 *** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
2477 A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
2480 *** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
2482 *** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
2483 We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
2485 *** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
2487 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
2488 All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
2489 libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
2490 Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
2491 libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
2492 version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
2493 All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
2494 possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
2495 and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
2496 the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
2497 the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.
2499 This release adds the following functions:
2501 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint

2567 New OpenPGP related functions.
2569 The function gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id is the same as the old
2570 from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
2572 The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
2573 is currently not used.
2575 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
2576 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
2578 ** API and ABI modifications:
2579 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
2580 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
2582 * Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
2584 ** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
2585 It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.
2587 ** API and ABI modifications:
2588 No changes since last version.
2590 * Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
2592 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
2593 An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
2596 ** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
2597 Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
2599 ** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
2600 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
2602 ** API and ABI modifications:
2603 No changes since last version.
2605 * Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
2607 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
2609 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
2611 ** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
2613 ** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
2614 The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
2615 printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
2616 follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
2617 '--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
2620 ** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
2621 Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
2623 ** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
2624 None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
2625 or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
2626 set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
2629 ** API and ABI modifications:
2630 No changes since last version.
2632 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
2634 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
2636 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
2637 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
2639 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
2640 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
2642 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
2643 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
2644 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
2645 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
2646 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
2648 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
2649 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
2650 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
2653 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
2654 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
2656 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
2658 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
2659 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
2660 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
2662 *** New PSK example client and server.
2663 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
2665 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
2666 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
2667 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
2668 <l@lwithers.me.uk> in
2669 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
2671 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
2672 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
2674 ** API and ABI modifications:
2675 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
2676 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
2677 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
2678 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
2680 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
2682 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
2683 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
2684 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
2685 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
2686 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
2687 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
2689 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
2690 Fixes builds under Windows.
2692 ** Make umask a requirement.
2693 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
2696 ** Update gnulib files.
2697 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
2698 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
2700 ** API and ABI modifications:
2701 No changes since last version.
2703 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
2705 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
2706 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
2708 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
2709 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
2710 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
2711 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
2712 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
2713 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
2715 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
2716 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
2717 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
2718 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
2719 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
2720 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
2722 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
2723 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
2724 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
2725 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
2726 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
2728 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
2729 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
2730 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
2731 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
2732 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
2734 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
2735 Villanueva Che (discussion at
2736 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
2738 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
2740 ** API and ABI modifications:
2741 No changes since last version.
2743 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
2745 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
2746 Based on report and tiny patches from
2747 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
2748 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
2750 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
2752 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
2753 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
2755 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
2756 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
2757 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
2758 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
2759 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
2761 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
2762 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
2763 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
2764 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
2766 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
2768 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
2769 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
2770 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
2772 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
2774 ** Update of gnulib files.
2776 ** API and ABI modifications:
2777 No changes since last version.
2779 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
2781 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
2782 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
2783 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
2784 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
2785 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
2786 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
2788 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
2789 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
2790 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
2793 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
2794 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
2795 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
2797 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
2798 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
2800 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
2801 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
2802 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
2804 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
2806 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
2808 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
2809 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
2810 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
2812 ** Update of gnulib files.
2814 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
2816 ** API and ABI modifications:
2817 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
2819 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
2821 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
2823 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
2824 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
2825 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
2827 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
2829 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
2830 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
2831 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
2832 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
2833 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
2836 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
2838 ** API and ABI modifications:
2839 No changes since last version.
2841 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
2843 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
2844 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
2845 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
2846 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
2848 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
2849 Based on HPUX build hints in
2850 <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>.

2853 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
2854 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
2856 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
2857 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
2858 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
2859 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
2860 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
2861 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
2863 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
2864 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
2865 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
2867 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
2869 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
2870 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
2871 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
2872 maintain an external library (help welcome).
2874 ** API and ABI modifications:
2875 No changes since last version.
2877 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
2879 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
2880 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in

2883 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
2884 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
2886 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
2888 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
2889 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
2891 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
2892 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
2893 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
2895 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
2897 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
2898 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
2900 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
2902 ** Update gnulib files.
2904 ** API and ABI modifications:
2905 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
2906 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
2907 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
2908 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
2909 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
2910 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
2911 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
2912 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
2913 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
2915 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
2917 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
2918 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
2920 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
2921 override the included ones.
2923 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
2925 ** API and ABI modifications:
2926 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
2927 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
2928 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
2929 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
2930 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
2931 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
2932 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
2934 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
2936 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
2937 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
2939 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
2940 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
2941 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
2942 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
2943 not documented until now.)
2945 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
2946 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
2947 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
2948 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
2949 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
2950 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
2951 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
2952 to trigger the problem. See also
2953 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
2955 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
2956 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
2958 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
2960 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
2962 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
2963 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
2964 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
2966 ** Updated translations.
2968 ** Update gnulib files.
2970 ** API and ABI modifications:
2971 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
2972 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
2974 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
2976 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
2978 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
2980 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
2982 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.
2983 See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-02/msg00043.html>.
2985 ** Internal header files cleanup.
2987 ** API and ABI modifications:
2988 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
2989 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
2990 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
2991 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
2993 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
2995 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
2996 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
2999 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
3000 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
3002 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
3004 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
3007 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
3008 for checks without limitation.
3010 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
3011 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
3012 strings and return the proper size.
3014 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
3015 This collects all problems related to record padding with
3016 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
3018 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
3019 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to
3020 draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-00.txt.
3022 ** certtool can print information on OpenPGP certificates and keys.
3024 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_import/init/deinit() to access raw DER DN.
3027 ** Added gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and other functions to
3028 export elements from the certificate credentials structure. Based on
3029 suggestion from Joe Orton.
3032 Clarify that srp_base64 is not the same as normal base64.
3034 ** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.

3082 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
3084 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3085 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
3086 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
3087 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
3088 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
3089 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
3091 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
3092 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
3094 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
3095 in a callback friendly way.
3097 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
3099 ** Updated translations.
3101 ** Update gnulib files.
3103 ** API and ABI modifications:
3104 No changes since last version.
3106 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
3108 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3109 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3110 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3111 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
3112 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in

3115 ** API and ABI modifications:
3116 No changes since last version.
3118 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
3120 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3121 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3122 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3123 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3124 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
3125 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3127 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3128 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3129 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3130 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3131 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3132 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3134 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3135 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3136 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3137 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3138 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3140 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3141 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3142 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3143 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3144 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3146 ** API and ABI modifications:
3147 No changes since last version.
3149 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
3151 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3152 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3153 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3154 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3155 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3156 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3158 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
3159 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
3160 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
3162 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
3164 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
3165 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
3166 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.

3169 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
3170 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
3172 ** Make Camellia encryption work.

3174 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2746>.
3176 ** API and ABI modifications:
3177 No changes since last version.
3179 * Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
3181 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
3182 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
3184 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
3187 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
3188 for checks without limitation.
3190 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
3191 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
3192 strings and return the proper size.
3194 ** API and ABI modifications:
3195 No changes since last version.
3197 * Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
3199 ** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
3200 Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com>, see
3201 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202269>.
3203 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
3204 in a callback friendly way.
3206 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
3208 ** API and ABI modifications:
3209 No changes since last version.
3211 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
3213 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
3215 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
3216 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
3217 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
3218 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
3220 ** Translation updates.
3221 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
3223 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
3225 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
3227 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
3229 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
3231 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
3233 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
3235 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
3237 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
3238 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
3239 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
3240 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
3241 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
3242 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
3245 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
3246 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
3248 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
3249 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
3252 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
3254 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
3255 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
3256 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
3257 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
3258 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
3259 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
3260 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
3262 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
3263 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
3266 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
3267 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
3268 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
3269 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
3271 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
3272 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
3273 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
3274 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
3275 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
3276 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
3278 *** XML related changes
3279 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
3280 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
3281 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
3282 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
3283 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
3284 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
3285 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
3286 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
3288 *** TLS Authorization related changes
3289 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
3290 only stub functions that returned an error code:
3292 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
3293 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
3294 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
3295 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
3297 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
3298 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
3299 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
3300 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
3302 *** SRP related changes
3303 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
3304 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
3305 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
3306 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
3309 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
3310 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
3311 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
3312 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
3313 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
3314 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
3315 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
3316 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
3318 *** OpenPGP related changes
3319 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
3320 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
3321 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
3323 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
3324 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
3325 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
3326 The following have been removed:
3328 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
3329 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
3330 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
3331 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
3332 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
3333 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
3334 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
3336 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
3337 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
3338 (binary or base64). The functions are:
3339 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
3340 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
3341 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
3342 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
3344 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
3345 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
3346 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
3349 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
3350 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
3351 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
3352 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
3353 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
3354 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
3355 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
3356 gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import
3357 gnutls_openpgp_key_export gnutls_openpgp_crt_export
3358 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_key_usage gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_usage
3359 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_fingerprint gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_fingerprint
3360 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_algorithm
3361 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_name gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_name
3362 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_version gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_version
3363 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
3364 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
3365 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id
3366 gnutls_openpgp_key_check_hostname gnutls_openpgp_crt_check_hostname
3367 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
3369 ** API and ABI modifications:
3370 No changes since last version.
3372 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
3374 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
3375 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
3376 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
3378 ** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
3380 ** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
3381 at gnutls_priority_set().
3383 ** Use gettext 0.17 which updates m4/lib-*.m4 macros.
3384 Fixes a problem with spurious -L/usr/lib additions.
3386 ** API and ABI modifications:

3391 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
3393 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
3394 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
3395 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
3397 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
3398 the priority string.
3400 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
3401 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
3403 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.

3417 gnutls_set_default_priority: UNDEPRECATED
3418 gnutls_set_default_priority_export: UNDEPRECATED
3420 ** Undocumented API and ABI modifications earlier in the 2.1.x series:
3421 GNUTLS_CIPHER_UNKNOWN: ADD.
3422 GNUTLS_CIPHER_CAMELLIA_128_CBC: ADD.

3445 ** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
3448 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
3449 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
3450 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
3451 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
3452 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
3453 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
3454 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
3455 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
3457 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
3459 ** API and ABI modifications:
3460 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.

3479 ** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
3480 version 1 certificates.
3482 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
3483 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
3485 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
3487 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
3488 priorities preferences.
3490 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
3491 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
3494 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
3495 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
3497 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
3498 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.
3500 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.5.
3502 ** Update gnulib files.

3543 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
3544 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to

3563 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
3564 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
3566 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
3568 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
3569 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
3571 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
3573 ** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
3575 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
3577 ** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.
3579 ** Added capability to set a callback after the client hello is received
3580 by the server in order to adjust parameters before the handshake.
3582 ** SRP was corrected to adhere to the latest draft (published soon as RFC)
3584 ** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting
3587 ** Updated the DN parser which now prints wrongly decoded values as hex
3590 ** certtool: Add option --quick-random.
3591 For generating low security test credentials.

3608 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
3610 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
3611 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
3612 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
3613 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
3614 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.
3616 ** Properly document in the NEWS file the API change in the last release.
3618 ** API and ABI modifications:
3619 No changes since last version.
3621 * Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
3623 ** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
3624 The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
3625 by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
3626 yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.
3629 ** Example code: Fix compilation flaw under MinGW.

3632 gnutls_oprfi_callback_func: ADD, new typedef function prototype.
3633 gnutls_oprfi_enable_client: ADD, new function.
3634 gnutls_oprfi_enable_server: ADD, new function.
3636 * Version 2.0.4 (released 2007-11-16)
3638 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
3640 ** API and ABI modifications:
3641 No changes since last version.
3643 * Version 2.0.3 (released 2007-11-10)
3645 ** This version backports several fixes from the 2.1.x branch.
3647 ** Fixed PKCS #3 parameter export.
3649 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
3650 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
3653 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
3654 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).

3659 ** API and ABI modifications:
3660 gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode: ADDED
3661 gnutls_record_disable_padding: ADDED
3663 * Version 2.0.2 (released 2007-10-17)
3665 ** TLS authorization support removed.
3666 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
3667 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
3668 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
3669 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
3670 lead the way with our own actions.
3672 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
3674 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
3676 ** API and ABI modifications:
3677 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
3678 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
3680 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
3682 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
3683 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
3684 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
3686 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
3687 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
3688 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
3689 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
3691 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
3693 ** API and ABI modifications:
3694 No changes since last version.
3696 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
3698 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
3700 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
3702 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
3704 ** API and ABI modifications:
3705 No changes since last version.
3707 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
3709 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
3710 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
3711 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
3713 ** Update gnulib files.
3714 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
3715 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
3716 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
3717 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
3718 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
3719 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
3723 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
3725 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
3727 ** API and ABI modifications:
3728 No changes since last version.
3730 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
3732 ** Install images for the info manual.
3733 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
3734 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
3735 discussions on the approach chosen.
3737 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
3738 Patch extracted from
3739 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
3741 ** Fix warnings during build.
3742 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
3744 ** API and ABI modifications:
3745 No changes since last version.
3747 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
3749 ** New functions to perform external signing.
3750 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
3751 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
3752 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
3753 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
3754 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
3755 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
3756 comments and testing.
3758 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
3759 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
3760 the new external signing callback interface.
3762 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
3763 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
3764 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
3765 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
3766 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
3767 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
3768 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
3769 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
3772 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
3773 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
3774 let's not enable it just yet.
3776 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
3777 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
3778 names without the '_t' suffix.
3780 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
3781 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
3783 ** More documentation fixes.
3784 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
3785 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
3787 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
3788 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
3789 <po@danielnylander.se>.
3791 ** API and ABI modifications:
3792 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
3793 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
3794 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
3795 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
3796 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
3797 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
3798 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
3800 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
3802 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
3803 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
3804 suitable certificate was found.
3806 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
3807 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
3809 ** Documentation fixes.
3810 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
3811 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
3813 ** Update gnulib files.
3815 ** API and ABI modifications:
3816 No changes since last version.
3818 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
3820 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
3822 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
3823 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
3824 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
3825 libguile.h header installed.
3827 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
3828 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
3829 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
3830 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
3831 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
3832 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
3833 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
3835 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
3837 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.
3838 Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
3840 ** Add Malay message translations.
3841 Thanks to Sharuzzaman Ahmat Raslan <sharuzzaman@myrealbox.com>.
3843 ** API and ABI modifications:
3844 No changes since last version.
3846 * Version 1.7.14 (released 2007-06-26)
3848 ** Don't enable Guile bindings unless we have Guile 1.8 or later.
3849 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
3851 ** Fix memory leak during DSA signature verification.
3852 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.

3872 No changes since last version.
3874 * Version 1.7.13 (released 2007-06-11)
3876 ** OpenCDK copy updated to version 0.6.3.
3878 ** Build fixes for GnuTLS Guile bindings.
3879 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
3881 ** Build fix for GTK-DOC manual.
3883 ** Update gnulib files.

3886 No changes since last version.
3888 * Version 1.7.12 (released 2007-06-08)
3890 ** Guile bindings for GnuTLS have been included.
3891 Contributed by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>. There is a
3892 new chapter 'Guile Bindings' in the manual.
3894 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
3895 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
3896 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
3897 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
3899 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
3900 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
3901 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
3904 Reported by Dennis Vshivkov <walrus@amur.ru>, see
3905 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333050>. Added
3906 self-test tests/parse_ca.c to test regressions.
3908 ** Fix build failures related to missing images in manual.
3909 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
3911 ** Update gnulib files.
3913 ** API and ABI modifications:
3914 No changes since last version.
3916 * Version 1.7.11 (released 2007-05-26)
3918 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
3919 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
3921 ** API and ABI modifications:
3922 No changes since last version.
3924 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
3926 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
3927 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
3929 ** Update of gnulib files.
3931 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
3932 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
3934 ** API and ABI modifications:
3935 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
3936 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
3938 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
3940 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
3941 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
3943 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
3944 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
3945 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
3946 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
3947 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
3948 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
3950 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
3952 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
3954 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
3955 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
3956 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
3957 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
3958 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
3959 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
3960 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
3962 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
3964 ** API and ABI modifications:
3965 No changes since last version.
3967 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
3969 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
3970 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
3972 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
3973 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
3975 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
3976 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
3977 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
3978 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
3979 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
3980 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
3981 been approved by the IETF.
3983 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
3984 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
3985 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
3987 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
3989 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
3990 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
3992 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
3993 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
3994 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
3996 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
3997 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
3998 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
3999 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
4000 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
4002 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
4004 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
4006 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
4007 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
4008 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
4009 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
4012 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
4013 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
4015 ** API and ABI modifications:
4016 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
4017 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
4018 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,

4027 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
4029 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
4031 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
4032 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
4033 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
4035 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4036 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
4038 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
4039 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
4040 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
4041 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
4043 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
4044 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
4046 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
4047 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
4049 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
4050 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
4052 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
4053 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
4055 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
4056 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
4057 string in the provided buffer.
4059 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
4060 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
4061 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
4063 ** API and ABI modifications:
4064 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
4065 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
4066 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
4067 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
4068 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
4069 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
4070 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
4071 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
4072 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
4073 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
4074 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
4075 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
4076 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
4077 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
4079 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
4081 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
4082 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
4083 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
4084 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
4085 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
4086 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
4087 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
4088 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
4090 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
4091 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
4092 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
4094 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
4095 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
4096 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
4097 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
4099 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
4100 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
4101 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
4102 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
4104 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
4105 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
4107 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
4108 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
4111 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
4112 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
4114 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
4115 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
4116 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
4120 ** API and ABI modifications:
4121 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
4122 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
4123 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
4124 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
4125 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
4126 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
4127 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
4128 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
4130 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
4132 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
4135 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
4137 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4138 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
4140 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
4141 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
4142 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
4144 ** Update of gnulib files.
4146 ** API and ABI modifications:
4147 No changes since last version.
4149 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
4151 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
4152 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
4153 testing all new hashes.
4155 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
4157 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
4159 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
4161 ** Update of gnulib files.
4163 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
4164 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
4165 missing unless the template specify it.
4167 ** API and ABI modifications:
4170 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
4173 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
4174 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
4175 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
4176 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
4178 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
4180 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
4181 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
4182 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
4183 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
4184 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
4185 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
4186 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
4187 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
4188 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
4190 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
4191 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
4193 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
4195 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
4197 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
4198 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
4199 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
4201 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
4202 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
4203 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
4206 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
4208 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
4209 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
4211 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
4212 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
4214 ** Update of gnulib files.
4216 ** API and ABI modifications:
4217 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
4218 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
4219 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
4221 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
4223 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
4225 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
4226 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
4227 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
4229 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
4230 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
4231 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
4232 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
4233 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
4234 will continue to be supported.
4236 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
4237 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
4238 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
4239 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
4241 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
4242 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
4243 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
4244 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
4246 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
4247 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
4248 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
4249 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
4250 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
4251 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
4253 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
4254 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
4256 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
4257 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
4258 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
4260 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
4261 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
4263 ** Update of gnulib files.
4265 ** API and ABI modifications:
4266 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
4267 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
4268 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
4269 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
4271 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
4273 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
4274 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
4275 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
4276 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
4278 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
4279 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
4281 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
4282 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
4283 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
4285 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
4286 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
4287 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
4289 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
4290 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
4291 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
4292 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
4293 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
4296 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
4297 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
4299 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
4300 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
4301 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
4303 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
4304 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
4306 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
4308 ** Update of gnulib files.
4310 ** API and ABI modifications:
4311 No changes since last version.
4313 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
4315 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
4316 The details is that the protocol priority set by
4317 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
4318 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
4320 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
4321 The client has been successfully tested against
4322 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
4324 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
4326 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
4328 ** Update of gnulib files.
4330 ** API and ABI modifications:
4331 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
4333 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
4335 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
4336 This fixes the following error message:
4337 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
4338 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
4340 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
4342 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
4343 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
4344 from the 1.7.x branch, see
4345 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
4347 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
4348 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
4349 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
4350 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
4352 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
4353 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
4354 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
4356 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
4357 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
4358 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
4359 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
4360 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
4362 ** API and ABI modifications:
4363 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
4364 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
4366 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
4368 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
4369 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
4370 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
4371 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
4372 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
4373 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
4374 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
4376 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
4377 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
4378 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
4379 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
4380 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
4381 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
4383 ** Updated translations.
4385 ** API and ABI modifications:
4386 No changes since last version.
4388 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
4390 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
4391 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
4392 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
4394 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
4395 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
4397 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
4398 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
4399 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
4400 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
4401 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
4404 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
4405 This fixes the following error message:
4406 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
4407 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
4409 ** API and ABI modifications:
4410 No changes since last version.
4412 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
4414 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
4415 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
4417 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
4418 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
4419 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
4421 *** Windows is a supported platform.
4422 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
4423 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
4424 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
4425 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
4427 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
4428 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
4429 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
4430 1.5.4 for more information.
4432 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
4434 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
4436 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
4437 This was forgotten in the last release.
4439 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
4440 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
4442 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
4444 ** Update of gnulib files.
4446 ** API and ABI modifications:
4447 No changes since last version.
4449 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
4451 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
4452 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
4453 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
4454 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
4455 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
4456 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
4457 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
4458 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
4459 of these functions. It is recommended to use
4460 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
4461 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
4462 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
4463 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
4465 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
4466 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
4468 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
4469 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
4470 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
4472 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
4473 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
4474 important fix is to change the return value of
4475 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
4476 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
4477 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
4478 compatible with 'int').
4480 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
4481 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
4482 ** instead of the lowest.
4483 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
4485 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
4486 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
4487 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
4488 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
4490 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
4491 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
4492 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
4494 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
4496 ** Update of gnulib files.
4498 ** API and ABI modifications:
4499 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
4500 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
4502 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
4504 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
4505 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
4506 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
4507 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
4508 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
4510 ** Re-factor self tests.
4512 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
4514 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
4516 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
4518 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
4519 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
4520 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
4521 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
4524 ** API and ABI modifications:
4525 No changes since last version.
4527 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
4529 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
4530 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
4531 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
4532 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
4533 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
4534 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
4535 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4537 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
4538 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
4539 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"
4540 <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
4542 ** Add version script for the GnuTLS C++ library.
4543 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4545 ** Fix the C++ compiler detection logic.
4546 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4548 ** Update of gnulib files.
4550 ** API and ABI modifications:
4551 No changes since last version.
4553 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
4555 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
4556 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
4557 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
4558 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
4559 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
4560 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
4561 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka
4562 OIWA <y.oiwa@aist.go.jp>.
4564 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
4565 up to date information.
4567 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
4569 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
4570 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
4571 indicate that the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
4572 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
4574 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
4575 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4577 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
4578 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
4579 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
4580 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
4582 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
4583 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
4584 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
4585 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
4587 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
4589 ** API and ABI modifications:
4590 No changes since last version.
4592 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
4594 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
4596 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
4598 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
4599 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
4600 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
4601 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
4602 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
4603 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
4604 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
4605 create *.def files, which are installed.
4607 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
4608 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
4609 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
4612 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".
4613 You may unconditionally disable it with --disable-cxx. See
4614 includes/gnutls/gnutlsxx.h and lib/gnutlsxx.cpp for the

4618 This enables 'make distcheck' to succeed.
4620 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
4622 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
4623 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
4625 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.

4635 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
4636 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
4637 ** instead of the lowest.

4646 * Version 1.4.4 (released 2006-09-12)
4648 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
4649 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
4650 ** verification logic flaw.
4651 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
4652 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
4655 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
4656 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
4657 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
4658 oracle in typical recommended situations.
4660 ** API and ABI modifications:
4661 No changes since last version.
4663 * Version 1.4.3 (released 2006-09-08)
4665 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
4666 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
4667 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
4668 empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be used to
4669 alter the numeric properties of the signature. See

4689 * Version 1.4.2 (released 2006-08-12)
4691 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
4692 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
4693 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
4694 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
4695 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
4696 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
4697 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
4698 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
4699 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
4700 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.

4706 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
4707 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
4709 ** API and ABI modifications:
4710 No changes since last version.
4712 * Version 1.4.1 (released 2006-06-14)
4714 ** Replaced inactive ifdefs to enable openpgp support in test programs.
4716 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
4718 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.
4720 ** Build fixes of the manual.
4722 ** Added Swedish translation.
4724 ** API and ABI modifications:
4725 No changes since last version.
4727 * Version 1.4.0 (released 2006-05-15)
4729 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
4731 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
4733 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
4734 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
4735 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
4738 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
4740 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
4742 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
4744 ** API and ABI modifications:
4745 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
4746 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
4747 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
4748 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
4750 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
4752 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
4754 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
4755 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
4756 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
4757 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
4758 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
4759 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
4760 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
4761 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
4762 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
4764 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
4765 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
4767 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
4769 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
4770 The include copy has been updated too.
4772 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.
4774 ** API and ABI modifications:
4775 No changes since last version.
4777 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
4779 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
4780 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
4781 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
4782 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
4785 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
4786 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
4787 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
4788 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
4790 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
4791 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
4792 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
4794 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
4795 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
4797 ** API and ABI modifications:
4798 No changes since last version.
4800 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
4802 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
4803 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
4804 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
4806 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
4807 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
4808 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
4809 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
4811 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
4813 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
4815 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
4816 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
4817 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
4818 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
4819 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
4820 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
4821 roughly at the same time.
4823 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
4825 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
4827 ** API and ABI modifications:
4828 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
4829 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
4831 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
4832 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
4834 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
4836 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
4837 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
4838 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
4839 GNU General Public License.
4841 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
4842 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
4843 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
4844 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
4845 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
4847 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
4848 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
4849 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
4850 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
4851 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
4852 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
4854 ** Internal type cleanups.
4855 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
4856 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
4857 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
4858 replaced by unsigned.
4860 ** API and ABI modifications:
4861 New functions to invoke the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF):
4865 New functions to retrieve the session's client and server random values:
4866 gnutls_session_get_server_random
4867 gnutls_session_get_client_random
4869 New function, to perform TLS/IA handshake:
4872 New function to decide whether to do a TLS/IA handshake:
4873 gnutls_ia_handshake_p
4875 New functions to allocate a TLS/IA credential:
4876 gnutls_ia_allocate_client_credentials
4877 gnutls_ia_free_client_credentials
4878 gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials
4879 gnutls_ia_free_server_credentials
4881 New functions to handle the AVP callback:

4883 gnutls_ia_set_client_avp_ptr
4884 gnutls_ia_get_client_avp_ptr
4885 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_function
4886 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_ptr
4887 gnutls_ia_get_server_avp_ptr
4889 New functions, to toggle TLS/IA application phases:
4890 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase
4892 New function to mix session keys with inner secret:
4893 gnutls_ia_permute_inner_secret
4895 Low-level API (used internally by gnutls_ia_handshake):
4896 gnutls_ia_endphase_send
4900 New functions that can be used after successful TLS/IA negotiation:
4901 gnutls_ia_generate_challenge
4902 gnutls_ia_extract_inner_secret
4904 Enum type with TLS/IA modes:
4907 Enum type with TLS/IA packet types:
4910 Enum values for TLS/IA alerts:
4911 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_FAILURE
4912 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_VERIFICATION
4914 New error codes, to signal when an application phase has finished:
4915 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_IPHF_RECEIVED
4916 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_FPHF_RECEIVED
4918 New error code to signal TLS/IA verify failure:
4919 GNUTLS_E_IA_VERIFY_FAILED
4921 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
4923 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
4924 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
4926 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
4927 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
4929 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
4930 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
4932 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
4933 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
4934 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
4936 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
4937 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
4938 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
4939 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
4940 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
4941 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
4942 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
4943 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
4946 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
4947 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
4948 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
4950 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
4951 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
4952 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
4954 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
4955 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
4958 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
4959 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
4960 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
4963 ** API and ABI modifications:
4964 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
4965 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
4967 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
4970 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
4971 gnutls_session_get_data2
4973 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
4974 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
4976 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
4978 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
4979 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
4980 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
4981 test this functionality.
4983 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
4985 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
4987 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
4989 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.
4991 ** Fixes for Tru64 UNIX 4.0D that lack MAP_FAILED, from Albert Chin.
4993 ** Remove trailing comma in enums, for IBM C v6, from Albert Chin.
4995 ** Make sure config.h is included first in a few files, from Albert Chin.
4997 ** Don't use C++ comments ("//") as they are invalid, from Albert Chin.
4999 ** Don't install SRP programs and man pages if --disable-srp-authentication,

5003 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t key exchange type: GNUTLS_KX_PSK
5005 New gnutls_credentials_type_t credential type:
5008 New credential types:
5009 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t

5023 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_function
5025 New function to set PSK username and key:
5026 gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials

5040 gnutls_srp_base64_decode
5042 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
5043 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
5044 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
5045 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
5047 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
5048 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
5049 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
5050 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
5051 - API and ABI modifications:
5052 No changes since last version.
5054 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
5055 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
5056 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
5057 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
5058 The included version has been updated too.

5071 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
5072 - Documentation was updated and improved.
5073 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
5074 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
5075 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
5076 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
5077 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
5078 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
5079 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
5080 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
5081 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
5082 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
5083 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
5084 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
5085 to align with the send(2) API.
5086 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
5087 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
5088 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
5089 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
5090 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
5091 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
5092 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
5093 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
5094 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
5095 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
5096 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
5097 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
5098 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
5099 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
5100 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
5101 - API and ABI modifications:
5102 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
5103 This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
5104 so we don't break backwards compatibility.
5105 GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
5106 GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
5107 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
5108 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
5110 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
5111 gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
5112 gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
5113 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
5114 used when broken signature algorithms
5115 is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
5116 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
5117 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
5118 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
5119 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
5120 version number, can be used for feature existence
5123 * Version 1.2.8 (2005-10-07)
5124 - Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
5125 - Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
5126 examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
5127 from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
5128 - If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
5129 tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
5130 validation fails. Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
5131 after certificate validation failures. Inspired from discussion
5132 with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.
5133 - The test for socklen_t has been moved to gnulib.
5134 - Link failures for duplicate or missing "program_name" symbol has been fixed,

5150 numbers, suggested by Fran <e_agf@yahoo.es>.
5151 - Certtool now uses the readline library (when available) when reading
5152 X.509 serial numbers.

5231 are not in the included list.
5232 - Added warning to certtool when MD5 is being used for digital
5234 - Optimizations ("-O2 -finline-functions") are not enabled by default,
5235 instead the standard autoconf defaults are used. Use `./configure
5236 CFLAGS="-O2 -finline-functions"' to get the old optimizations.
5237 - Added the option --get-dh-params to certtool, in order to get the
5238 parameters included in the library primes and generators.

5274 gnutls_x509_rdn_get now set *sizeof_buf to the buffer length that is
5275 required, instead of the string length. That is, the value has been
5276 incremented by 1 to account for the terminating zero. Reported by
5277 Martin Lambers <marlam@web.de>.
