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

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

632 generate OCSP requests and to verify OCSP responses. See the manual
633 for more information. Run ./configure with --disable-ocsp to build
634 GnuTLS without OCSP support.
636 This work was sponsored by Smoothwall <http://smoothwall.net/>.

1171 ** libgnutls: LZO support was removed.
1173 ** libgnutls: Corrections in SSLv2 client hello parsing.
1175 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-NI if detected. Uses
1176 Andy Polyakov's AES-NI code.
1178 ** libgnutls: Restored HMAC-MD5 for compatibility. Although considered
1179 weak, several sites require it for connection. It is enabled for
1180 "NORMAL" and "PERFORMANCE" priority strings.
1182 ** libgnutls: depend on libdl.
1184 ** libgnutls-extra: Dropped support of LZO compression via liblzo.
1186 ** libgnutls: gnutls_transport_set_global_errno() was removed. This
1187 function required GnuTLS to access system specific data, for no reason.
1188 Use gnutls_transport_set_errno(), or your system's errno fascility
1191 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2()
1192 to set a callback to retrieve a certificate. The certificate is
1193 received in a format that requires no processing from gnutls thus
1194 it is suitable when performance is required.
1196 ** API and ABI modifications:
1197 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: REMOVED
1198 gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2: ADDED
1200 * Version 2.99.0 (released 2011-04-09)
1202 ** libgnutls: Added Datagram TLS support.
1204 ** libgnutls: Uses a single configure file and a single
1205 gnulib library to save space.
1207 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes.
1209 ** libgnutls: gnutls_transport_set_lowat() is no more.
1211 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
1212 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
1214 ** libgnutls: Corrected signature generation and verification
1215 in the Certificate Verify message when in TLS 1.2. Reported
1218 ** libgnutlsxx: The C++ interface returns exception on
1219 every error and not only on fatal ones. This allows easier
1222 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue in DHE-PSK ciphersuites that ignored
1225 ** libgnutls: SRP and PSK are no longer set on the default priorities.
1226 They have to be explicitly set.
1228 ** libgnutls: During handshake message verification using DSS
1229 use the hash algorithm required by it.
1231 ** libgnutls: gnutls_recv() return GNUTLS_E_PREMATURE_TERMINATION
1232 on unexpected EOF, instead of GNUTLS_E_UNEXPECTED_PACKET_LENGTH.
1234 ** libgnutls: Added GCM mode (interoperates with tls.secg.org)
1236 ** libgnutls-extra: Inner application extension was removed.
1237 It was never standardized nor published as an RFC.
1239 ** libgnutls: Added new certificate verification functions, that
1240 can provide more details and are more efficient. Check
1241 gnutls_x509_trust_list_*.
1243 ** certtool: Uses the new certificate verification functions for
1246 ** certtool: Added new certificate verification functionality
1247 using the --verify option. Combined with --load-ca-certificate
1248 it can verify a certificate chain against a list of certificates.
1250 ** Several files unnecessarily included <gcrypt.h>; this has been fixed.
1252 ** API and ABI modifications:

1323 ** libgnutls: C++ compatibility fix for compat.h. Reported by Mark Brand.
1325 ** libgnutls: Fix size of gnutls_openpgp_keyid_t by using the
1326 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEYID_SIZE definition. Reported by Andreas Metzler.
1328 ** API and ABI modifications:
1329 No changes since last version.
1334 * Version 2.12.0 (released 2011-03-24)
1336 ** certtool: Warns on generation of DSA keys of over 1024 bits, about
1337 the incompatibility with TLS other than 1.2.
1339 ** libgnutls: Modified signature algorithm selection in client
1340 certificate request, to avoid failures in DSA certificates.
1342 ** libgnutls: Instead of failing with internal error, return
1343 GNUTLS_E_INCOMPAT_DSA_KEY_WITH_TLS_PROTOCOL if an incompatible DSA
1344 key with the negotiated protocol is encountered.
1346 ** libgnutls: Bug fixes in the RSA ciphersuite behavior with openpgp keys.
1348 ** libgnutls: Force state update when fork is detected in the nettle
1351 ** libgnutls: modified gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp() to use the preferred
1352 subkey instead of setting explicitly one.
1354 ** libgnutls: Corrected default behavior in record version of Client Hellos.
1356 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
1357 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
1359 ** API and ABI modifications:
1360 gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp: MODIFIED
1365 ** libgnutls: The deprecated gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash() was
1366 replaced by gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2().
1368 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
1369 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
1370 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
1371 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
1374 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
1375 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
1377 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
1379 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
1380 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),
1381 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash(), gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data(), were
1382 deprecated for gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(),
1383 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(), gnutls_privkey_sign_hash(),
1384 gnutls_privkey_sign_data(), gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash()
1385 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() respectively.
1387 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
1390 ** libgnutls: Added convenience functions gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2()
1391 and gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2().
1393 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
1394 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.
1396 ** API and ABI modifications:
1397 gnutls_x509_crl_list_import: ADDED
1398 gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2: ADDED

1421 gnutls_privkey_sign_hash: REMOVED (was added in 2.11.0)
1423 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
1425 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
1426 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
1429 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
1430 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
1432 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
1434 ** API and ABI modifications:
1435 No changes since last version.
1437 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
1439 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
1440 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
1441 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
1443 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
1444 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
1446 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
1447 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
1450 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
1452 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
1453 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
1454 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
1456 ** API and ABI modifications:
1457 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
1458 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
1460 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
1462 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
1463 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
1464 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
1465 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
1468 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
1470 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
1472 ** build: Update gnulib files.
1474 ** i18n: Update translations.
1476 ** tests: Add self tests gendh.c. Speed up Guile self checks.
1478 ** API and ABI modifications:
1479 gnutls_session_channel_binding: New function.
1480 gnutls_channel_binding_t: New enumeration.
1481 GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE: New gnutls_channel_binding_t enum member.
1482 GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE: New error code.
1484 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
1486 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
1487 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
1488 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
1489 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
1491 ** API and ABI modifications:
1492 No changes since last version.
1494 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
1496 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
1497 and session tickets support.
1499 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
1501 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
1502 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
1503 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
1504 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
1505 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
1508 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
1509 introduced with the new nettle code.
1511 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
1513 ** API and ABI modifications:
1514 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
1515 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
1517 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
1519 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
1520 to use the libgcrypt back end.
1522 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
1523 backend crypto library.
1525 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
1527 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
1529 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
1530 tabs are being skipped.
1532 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
1534 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
1537 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
1538 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
1539 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
1541 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
1542 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
1543 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
1544 and 3072 keys only).
1546 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1547 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1548 is unable to decode the key.
1550 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
1552 ** API and ABI modifications:
1553 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1554 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1556 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
1558 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
1559 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
1560 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
1563 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
1564 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
1565 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
1566 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
1567 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
1568 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
1569 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
1571 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
1575 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
1577 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
1578 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
1579 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
1581 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
1584 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
1585 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
1587 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
1588 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
1590 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
1591 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
1592 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
1593 the OPRFI extension was removed.
1595 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
1597 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
1598 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
1599 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
1601 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
1603 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
1604 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
1605 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
1607 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
1608 works even when resuming a session.
1610 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
1611 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
1612 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
1613 PKCS #11 private keys.
1615 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
1616 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
1618 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
1619 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
1621 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
1622 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
1623 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
1625 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1626 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
1627 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1629 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
1632 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
1633 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
1634 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
1635 connections using a url such as:
1636 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

1717 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
1719 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
1722 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
1724 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1725 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1726 is unable to decode the key.
1728 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
1729 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
1731 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
1732 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
1734 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1735 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
1736 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1738 ** API and ABI modifications:
1739 No changes since last version.
1741 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
1743 ** API and ABI modifications:
1744 No changes since last version.
1746 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
1748 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
1749 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
1752 ** API and ABI modifications:
1753 No changes since last version.
1755 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
1757 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
1758 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
1759 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
1760 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
1761 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
1763 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
1764 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
1766 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
1768 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
1770 ** API and ABI modifications:
1771 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
1772 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
1774 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
1776 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
1777 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
1780 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
1781 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
1782 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
1784 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
1785 Solves the issue discussed in:
1786 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
1787 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
1788 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
1789 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
1790 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
1791 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
1792 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
1793 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
1795 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
1797 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
1800 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
1801 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
1802 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
1803 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
1805 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
1806 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
1807 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
1808 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
1809 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
1810 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
1811 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
1812 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
1814 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
1815 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
1816 end of the handshake.
1818 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
1819 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
1821 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
1822 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
1823 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
1824 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
1825 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
1826 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
1827 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
1828 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
1829 now different than previous gnutls releases.
1830 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
1832 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
1834 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
1836 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.
1837 Reported by and tiny patch from Vitaly Mayatskikh
1838 <v.mayatskih@gmail.com> in
1839 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/4096>.

1899 No changes since last version.
1901 * Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
1903 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
1904 Reported by Tang Tong.
1906 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
1907 ** extension and certificate verify field.
1908 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
1909 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
1910 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
1911 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
1914 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
1915 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
1917 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
1919 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
1920 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
1921 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
1923 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
1924 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem
1925 introduced for the v2.8.x branch in 2.7.6.
1927 ** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
1928 To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
1930 ** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
1932 ** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.
1933 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in

1968 ** API and ABI modifications:
1969 No changes since last version.
1971 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
1973 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
1974 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
1975 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
1976 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad
1977 Hards <bradh@frogmouth.net>.
1979 ** API and ABI modifications:

1986 ** libgnutls: Client-side TLS 1.2 and SHA-256 ciphersuites now works.
1987 The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
1988 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
1989 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
1992 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
1993 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
1994 OpenPGP hostname comparison.
1996 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
1997 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
1998 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
2000 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
2001 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
2002 error, to prevent this from happening again.
2004 ** API and ABI modifications:
2005 No changes since last version.
2007 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
2009 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
2010 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
2011 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
2012 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
2014 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

2019 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server: ADDED.
2021 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
2023 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2024 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2025 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2026 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2027 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2028 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2029 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2030 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2031 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2032 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2033 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2034 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2035 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2036 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
2038 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
2039 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
2040 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
2042 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
2044 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
2045 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
2046 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2047 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
2049 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
2050 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
2051 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
2052 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2053 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
2055 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
2056 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
2057 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
2058 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
2059 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.
2061 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
2062 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
2063 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
2064 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2065 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.
2067 ** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
2068 Report and patch by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2069 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3671>
2071 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
2073 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
2074 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
2075 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2076 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
2077 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
2078 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.
2080 ** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.
2082 ** tests: Improved test vectors in self-test pkcs12_s2k.
2084 ** tests: Added new self-test dn2 to detect off-by-one size error.
2086 ** tests: Fix failure in "chainverify" because a certificate have expired.
2088 ** API and ABI modifications:
2089 No changes since last version.
2091 * Version 2.9.1 (released 2009-06-08)
2093 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in gnutls_global_init after earlier init/deinit cycle.
2094 Forwarded by Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net> from
2095 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/272388>.

2111 No changes since last version.
2113 * Version 2.8.6 (released 2010-03-15)
2115 ** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
2116 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2117 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
2119 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
2120 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
2121 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
2123 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
2124 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
2125 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
2126 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
2127 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2128 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.

2194 Code intended to be removed would lead to an read-out-bound error in
2195 some situations. Reported by Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>. A CVE
2196 code have been allocated for the vulnerability: [CVE-2009-2730].

2211 * Version 2.8.2 (released 2009-08-10)
2213 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2214 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2215 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2216 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2217 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2218 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2219 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2220 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2221 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2222 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2223 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2224 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2225 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2226 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4].

2253 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2254 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by

2387 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
2388 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
2391 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
2392 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
2398 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
2399 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
2400 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
2401 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
2402 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
2403 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
2405 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
2406 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
2407 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
2408 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
2411 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
2412 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now

2423 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
2424 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
2426 The following symbols have been added to the library:

2584 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2585 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2587 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2588 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
2589 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
2590 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
2591 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
2592 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
2593 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
2594 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2595 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2596 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
2598 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
2599 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
2600 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
2601 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
2602 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
2603 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
2604 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
2605 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
2608 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
2609 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
2610 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
2611 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
2612 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
2613 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
2616 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
2617 This should have been done in the last release.
2619 ** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
2620 Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2621 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3476>.
2623 ** doc: Improved sections for the info manual.
2624 We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
2625 directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
2626 'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command

2632 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
2633 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
2634 GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.

2636 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
2638 * Version 2.7.7 (released 2009-04-20)
2640 ** libgnutls: Applied patch by Cedric Bail to add functions
2641 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash() and gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm().
2643 ** gnutls.pc: Add -ltasn1 to 'pkg-config --libs --static gnutls' output.
2644 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
2645 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3467>.
2647 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.8.
2648 GnuTLS is also internally ready to be used with libtasn1 v2.0.
2650 ** doc: Fix build failure of errcodes/printlist.
2651 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org> in
2652 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3435>.
2654 ** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
2655 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
2656 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
2658 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.
2659 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>
2661 ** API and ABI modifications:
2662 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
2663 gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
2665 * Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
2667 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
2668 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
2670 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
2672 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
2673 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
2674 be used for chain verification.
2676 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
2677 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
2679 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
2680 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
2681 information. This avoids code duplication.
2683 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
2684 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
2685 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
2688 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
2689 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
2690 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2692 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
2694 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
2696 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
2698 ** API and ABI modifications:
2699 No changes since last version.
2701 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
2703 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2704 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2705 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2706 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2707 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2708 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2709 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2710 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2711 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2712 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
2713 <deengert@anl.gov> in
2714 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2716 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
2717 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
2719 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
2720 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
2721 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
2723 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2724 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2725 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2726 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
2727 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
2728 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2730 ** API and ABI modifications:
2731 No changes since last version.
2733 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
2735 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2736 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2737 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2738 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2739 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2740 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
2741 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
2742 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
2744 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
2745 Patch from David MarÃn Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
2746 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
2748 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
2750 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
2751 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
2752 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
2753 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
2754 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
2755 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
2757 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
2759 ** API and ABI modifications:
2760 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
2762 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
2764 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
2765 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
2766 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by
2767 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
2768 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
2770 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
2771 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
2772 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
2773 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
2774 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
2775 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
2776 real change in behaviour.
2778 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
2779 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
2780 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
2782 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
2784 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
2785 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
2787 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
2789 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
2791 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
2793 ** API and ABI modifications:
2794 No changes since last version.
2796 * Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
2798 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2799 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2800 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2801 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2802 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
2804 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
2805 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
2807 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
2808 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
2809 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2810 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
2811 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2812 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
2813 work but are deprecated.
2815 ** certtool: allow setting arbitrary key purpose object identifiers.
2817 ** libgnutls: Fix detection of C99 macros, to make debug logging work again.
2819 ** libgnutls: Add missing prototype for gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.

2864 ** certtool: print a PKCS #8 key even if it is not encrypted.
2866 ** Old libgnutls.m4 and libgnutls-config scripts removed.
2867 Please use pkg-config instead.
2869 ** Configuration system modified.
2870 There is now a configure script in lib/ and libextra/ as well, because
2871 gnulib works better with a config.h per gnulib directory.

2933 ** libgnutls: Corrected double free on signature verification failure.
2934 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>. See the advisory
2935 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-1] [CVE-2009-1415]
2937 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2938 Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
2939 DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
2940 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2942 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2943 Reported by Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com>. Before the
2944 library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
2945 was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
2946 applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
2947 proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
2948 to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
2949 time (as reported by the time function) is within the
2950 activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
2953 This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
2954 turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
2955 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
2956 gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
2957 condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
2958 add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2959 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new

2984 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2986 ** GnuTLS no longer uses the libtasn1-config script to find libtasn1.
2987 Libtasn1 0.3.4 or later is required. This is to align with the
2988 upcoming libtasn1 v2.0 release that doesn't have a libtasn1-script.

3090 ** libgnutls-openssl: Fix patch against X509_get_issuer_name.
3091 It incorrectly returned the subject DN instead of issuer DN in v2.6.0.
3092 Thanks to Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de> for report.
3094 ** certtool: Print a PKCS #8 key even if it is not encrypted.
3096 ** tests: Make tests compile when using internal libtasn1.
3097 Patch by ludo@gnu.org (Ludovic Courtès).
3099 ** API and ABI modifications:
3100 No changes since last version.
3102 * Version 2.6.0 (released 2008-10-06)
3104 ** libgnutls: Correct printing and parsing of IPv6 addresses.
3106 ** libgnutls-openssl: fix out of bounds access.
3107 Problem in X509_get_subject_name and X509_get_issuer_name. Tiny patch
3108 from Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>.
3110 ** certtool: Use inet_pton for parsing IPv6 addresses.
3112 ** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
3114 *** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3116 *** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
3118 *** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3120 *** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3121 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3122 such as IP addresses.
3124 *** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3125 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
3127 *** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
3128 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
3129 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id.
3131 *** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
3132 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
3134 *** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3135 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3137 *** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3138 *** from a private key.
3139 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw.
3141 *** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3142 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3143 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3145 *** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3147 *** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3148 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3149 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3150 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3151 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3154 *** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3155 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3156 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
3159 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
3160 No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
3161 fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
3163 A new header file <gnutls/crypto.h> have been added. It contains
3164 definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
3165 All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
3167 We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
3168 does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
3169 and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
3171 The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
3175 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2
3176 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2
3177 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2
3178 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2
3179 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2
3180 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2
3181 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2
3182 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2
3183 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2
3188 gnutls_session_set_finished_function
3190 gnutls_sign_get_name
3192 gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits:
3193 gnutls_strerror_name
3194 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw
3195 gnutls_x509_crt_set_crl_dist_points2
3196 gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name
3198 The following functions have been added to libgnutls-extra:
3200 gnutls_register_md5_handler
3202 ** API and ABI modifications:
3203 No changes since last version.
3205 * Version 2.5.9 (released 2008-09-29)
3207 ** libgnutls: Fix several memory leaks.
3208 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3210 ** libgnutls: Fix buffer overrun in gnutls_x509_crt_list_import.
3211 Report and patch by Jonathan Manktelow.
3213 ** libgnutls: crypto.h gnutls_pk_params_st changes allocation strategy.
3214 The parameters are now allocated in the structure itself.
3216 ** doc: Texinfo HTML manual uses a stylesheet to improve readability.
3218 ** tests: Scripts now use EXEEXT properly.
3219 Modern libtool doesn't create wrapper script, so the self tests need
3220 to invoke certtool.exe under MinGW32+Wine.
3222 ** Uses autoconf 2.63, automake 1.10.1, libtool 2.2.6a.
3223 Automake warnings are now also enabled.
3225 ** API and ABI modifications:
3226 gnutls_pk_params_st: MODIFIED
3228 * Version 2.5.8 (released 2008-09-21)
3230 ** certtool: updated so it can add several subject alternative names using
3233 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3234 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3235 such as IP addresses.
3237 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in hashing code when using non-libgcrypt handlers.
3239 ** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3240 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits. Tiny patch by Kevin Quick
3241 <quick@sparq.org> in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106454>.
3243 ** libgnutls: Check for overflows in gnutls_calloc and gnutls_secure_calloc.
3244 Also fix overflows in calls to those functions. Reported by Werner
3245 Koch <wk@gnupg.org>.
3247 ** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3248 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3249 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in

3262 * Version 2.5.7 (released 2008-09-16)
3264 ** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
3265 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
3267 ** libgnutls: Don't crash when gnutls_credentials_set is called twice.
3269 ** libgnutls: Fix libgnutls shared library version.
3270 It wasn't properly incremented after adding symbols in the last
3273 ** manual: Now mention supported public key and public key signing algorithms.
3275 ** tests/openssl: initialize gnutls before use.
3277 ** tests/setcredcrash: New test to catch regressions of gnutls_credentials_set.
3279 ** GTK-DOC manual: mention new symbols in 2.6.x. Mention crypto.h functions.
3281 ** API and ABI modifications:
3282 gnutls_sign_get_name: ADDED
3283 gnutls_pk_get_name: ADDED
3285 * Version 2.5.6 (released 2008-09-08)
3287 ** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
3288 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
3289 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id. Suggested by Sam
3290 Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3292 ** libgnutls: Refactor and clean up some code.
3294 ** libgnutls: Fix compile error with Sun CC.
3296 ** gnutls-cli: Improve --list output to include public key and signature algs.
3298 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Remove --copyright parameter.
3299 Use standard --version to get license info.
3301 ** gnutls-cli.1: Document all new parameters.
3302 Thanks to James Westby <jw+debian@jameswestby.net>.
3304 ** tests: New self-test pgps2kgnu to test parsing of encrypted secrets.
3305 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3307 ** API and ABI modifications:
3308 gnutls_pk_list: ADDED
3309 gnutls_pk_get_id: ADDED
3310 gnutls_sign_list: ADDED
3311 gnutls_sign_get_id: ADDED
3313 * Version 2.5.5 (released 2008-08-29)
3315 ** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3316 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3318 ** libgnutls: Fix include paths so that building with internal libtasn1 works.
3319 Reported by "jth.net ApS" <info@jth.net>.
3321 ** libgnutls: Fix segmentation fault when generating private keys.
3322 Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3324 ** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
3325 The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
3326 it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
3327 old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
3328 to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
3329 by Christian Grothoff <christian@grothoff.org>.
3331 ** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3332 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3334 ** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
3336 ** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.
3338 ** Add French translation, thanks to Nicolas Provost.
3340 ** API and ABI modifications:
3341 gnutls_strerror_name: ADDED
3343 * Version 2.5.4 (released 2008-08-19)
3345 ** Fix secure memory initialization of libgcrypt.
3346 Reported by Joe Orton <joe@manyfish.co.uk> in
3347 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2992>.
3350 Reference to NIST SP 800-57 in the manual on key size recommendations.
3351 Added 'Since:' tags to new APIs for gtk-doc.
3353 ** API and ABI modifications:
3354 No changes since last version.
3356 * Version 2.5.3 (released 2008-08-14)
3358 ** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3359 ** from a private key.
3360 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
3361 discussion with "Zach C." <fxchip@gmail.com>.
3363 ** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3364 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3365 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3367 ** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
3368 Reported in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106453>.
3370 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3371 The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
3372 names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
3373 likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
3374 the namespace violation.
3376 ** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
3378 ** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
3380 ** API and ABI modifications:
3381 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw: ADDED
3382 gnutls_session_set_finished_function: ADDED
3383 gnutls_finished_callback_func: ADDED
3384 GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE: ADDED
3385 GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE: ADDED
3386 TLS_MASTER_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3387 TLS_RANDOM_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3389 * Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
3391 ** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
3392 The prime and generator was swapped.
3394 ** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3395 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3396 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3397 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3398 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3401 ** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
3402 This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
3403 The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
3404 libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong
3407 ** API and ABI modifications:
3408 gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
3409 gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
3410 gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED
3411 gnutls_ext_register: ADDED
3413 * Version 2.5.1 (released 2008-07-02)
3417 ** API and ABI modifications:
3418 No changes since last version.
3420 * Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
3422 ** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.
3424 ** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3425 The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
3428 ** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
3430 ** Update gnulib and translations.
3431 The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
3432 and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
3433 implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later
3436 ** API and ABI modifications:
3437 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2: ADDED.
3438 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2: ADDED.
3439 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2: ADDED.
3440 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2: ADDED.
3441 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2: ADDED.

3444 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2: ADDED.
3445 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2: ADDED.
3447 * Version 2.4.3 (released 2009-02-06)
3449 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
3450 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
3451 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
3452 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
3453 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
3454 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
3455 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
3456 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
3457 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
3458 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
3459 <deengert@anl.gov> in
3460 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3462 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
3463 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
3464 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
3465 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
3466 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
3467 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3469 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
3470 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
3471 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
3472 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
3473 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
3474 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
3475 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
3476 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
3478 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
3479 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
3480 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by

3482 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
3484 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
3485 The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
3486 problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
3487 certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org> in
3488 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=505279>.
3490 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
3491 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
3492 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
3493 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
3494 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]

3532 ** libgnutls: Fix local crash in gnutls_handshake. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-2]
3533 If the gnutls_handshake function is called for a normal session, which
3534 can happen for re-handshakes, the library would crash because it tried
3535 to hash some data using a libgcrypt handle that had been deallocated.

3556 ** API and ABI modifications:
3557 No changes since last version.
3559 * Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
3561 ** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3563 *** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
3565 *** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
3566 *** derivation and PSK identity hints.
3567 The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
3568 draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
3570 *** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3571 This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
3572 The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3574 *** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
3576 *** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
3577 It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
3578 CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
3580 *** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3581 The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
3582 but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
3585 *** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
3587 *** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
3588 Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3590 *** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
3592 *** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
3593 *** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
3594 Thanks to Joe Orton.
3596 *** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
3598 *** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
3599 The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
3600 reflect, so the following name change has been made:
3603 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
3604 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
3605 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
3607 The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
3609 *** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
3610 *** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
3611 A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
3614 *** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
3616 *** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
3617 We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
3619 *** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
3621 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
3622 All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
3623 libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
3624 Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
3625 libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
3626 version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
3627 All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
3628 possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
3629 and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
3630 the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
3631 the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.
3633 This release adds the following functions:
3635 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint
3636 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint
3637 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key
3639 Used to get/set the PSK identity hint, and derive PSK keys from
3640 passwords a'la netconf.
3642 gnutls_x509_dn_deinit
3643 gnutls_x509_dn_export
3644 gnutls_x509_dn_import
3647 Used to handle X.509 Certificate DN's directly.
3651 Converts a data buffer to hex. Useful for handling PSK/SRP shared
3654 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
3655 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
3656 gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
3658 Functions for direct access to credential elements.
3660 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey
3661 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id
3662 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_dsa_raw

3699 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_set_preferred_key_id
3701 New OpenPGP related functions.
3703 The function gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id is the same as the old
3704 from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
3706 The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
3707 is currently not used.
3709 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
3710 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3712 ** API and ABI modifications:
3713 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3714 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3716 * Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
3718 ** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
3719 It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.
3721 ** API and ABI modifications:
3722 No changes since last version.
3724 * Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
3726 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
3727 An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
3730 ** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
3731 Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
3733 ** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
3734 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3736 ** API and ABI modifications:
3737 No changes since last version.
3739 * Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
3741 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
3743 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
3745 ** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
3747 ** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
3748 The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
3749 printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
3750 follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
3751 '--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
3754 ** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
3755 Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
3757 ** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
3758 None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
3759 or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
3760 set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
3763 ** API and ABI modifications:
3764 No changes since last version.
3766 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
3768 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
3770 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
3771 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
3773 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
3774 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3776 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
3777 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
3778 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
3779 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
3780 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3782 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
3783 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
3784 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
3787 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
3788 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
3790 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
3792 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
3793 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
3794 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
3796 *** New PSK example client and server.
3797 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
3799 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
3800 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
3801 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
3802 <l@lwithers.me.uk> in
3803 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
3805 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
3806 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
3808 ** API and ABI modifications:
3809 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
3810 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
3811 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
3812 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
3814 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
3816 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3817 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3818 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3819 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
3820 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3821 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
3823 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
3824 Fixes builds under Windows.
3826 ** Make umask a requirement.
3827 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
3830 ** Update gnulib files.
3831 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
3832 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
3834 ** API and ABI modifications:
3835 No changes since last version.
3837 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
3839 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
3840 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
3842 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3843 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3844 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3845 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3846 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
3847 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3849 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3850 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3851 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3852 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3853 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3854 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3856 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3857 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3858 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3859 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3860 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3862 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3863 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3864 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3865 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3866 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3868 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
3869 Villanueva Che (discussion at
3870 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
3872 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
3874 ** API and ABI modifications:
3875 No changes since last version.
3877 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
3879 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
3880 Based on report and tiny patches from
3881 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
3882 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
3884 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
3886 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
3887 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
3889 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
3890 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
3891 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
3892 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
3893 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
3895 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
3896 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
3897 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
3898 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
3900 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
3902 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
3903 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
3904 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
3906 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
3908 ** Update of gnulib files.
3910 ** API and ABI modifications:
3911 No changes since last version.
3913 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
3915 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3916 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3917 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3918 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3919 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3920 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3922 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
3923 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
3924 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
3927 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
3928 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
3929 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
3931 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
3932 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
3934 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3935 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
3936 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3938 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
3940 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
3942 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
3943 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
3944 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
3946 ** Update of gnulib files.
3948 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
3950 ** API and ABI modifications:
3951 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
3953 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
3955 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
3957 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
3958 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
3959 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
3961 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
3963 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
3964 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
3965 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
3966 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
3967 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
3970 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
3972 ** API and ABI modifications:
3973 No changes since last version.
3975 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
3977 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
3978 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
3979 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
3980 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
3982 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
3983 Based on HPUX build hints in
3984 <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>.
3986 ** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
3987 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3988 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3990 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
3991 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
3992 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
3993 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
3994 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3995 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3997 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
3998 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
3999 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
4001 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
4003 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
4004 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
4005 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
4006 maintain an external library (help welcome).
4008 ** API and ABI modifications:
4009 No changes since last version.
4011 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
4013 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
4014 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
4015 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1145>.
4017 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
4018 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
4020 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4022 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
4023 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
4025 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
4026 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
4027 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
4029 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
4031 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
4032 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
4034 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
4036 ** Update gnulib files.
4038 ** API and ABI modifications:
4039 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
4040 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
4041 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4042 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4043 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4044 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
4045 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
4046 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
4047 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
4049 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
4051 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
4052 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
4054 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
4055 override the included ones.
4057 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
4059 ** API and ABI modifications:
4060 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
4061 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
4062 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
4063 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
4064 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
4065 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
4066 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
4068 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
4070 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
4071 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4073 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
4074 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
4075 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
4076 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
4077 not documented until now.)
4079 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
4080 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
4081 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
4082 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
4083 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
4084 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
4085 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
4086 to trigger the problem. See also
4087 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
4089 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
4090 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
4092 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
4094 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
4096 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4097 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4098 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4100 ** Updated translations.
4102 ** Update gnulib files.
4104 ** API and ABI modifications:
4105 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
4106 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
4108 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
4110 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
4112 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
4114 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
4116 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.
4117 See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-02/msg00043.html>.
4119 ** Internal header files cleanup.
4121 ** API and ABI modifications:
4122 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
4123 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
4124 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
4125 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
4127 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
4129 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
4130 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
4133 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4134 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4136 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
4138 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4141 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4142 for checks without limitation.
4144 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4145 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4146 strings and return the proper size.
4148 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
4149 This collects all problems related to record padding with
4150 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
4152 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
4153 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to
4154 draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-00.txt.
4156 ** certtool can print information on OpenPGP certificates and keys.
4158 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_import/init/deinit() to access raw DER DN.

4211 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL.
4212 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE.
4213 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL: ADDED, same as
4214 old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL.
4216 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
4218 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
4219 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
4220 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
4221 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
4222 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
4223 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
4225 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
4226 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
4228 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4229 in a callback friendly way.
4231 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4233 ** Updated translations.
4235 ** Update gnulib files.
4237 ** API and ABI modifications:
4238 No changes since last version.
4240 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
4242 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
4243 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
4244 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
4245 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
4246 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
4247 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
4249 ** API and ABI modifications:
4250 No changes since last version.
4252 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
4254 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
4255 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
4256 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
4257 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
4258 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
4259 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
4261 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
4262 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
4263 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4264 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4265 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
4266 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
4268 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
4269 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
4270 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4271 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4272 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
4274 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
4275 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
4276 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4277 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4278 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
4280 ** API and ABI modifications:
4281 No changes since last version.
4283 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
4285 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
4286 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
4287 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
4288 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
4289 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
4290 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
4292 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4293 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4294 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4296 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4298 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
4299 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
4300 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
4302 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
4303 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
4304 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
4306 ** Make Camellia encryption work.
4307 Reported by Yoshisato YANAGISAWA <yanagisawa@csg.is.titech.ac.jp> in
4308 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2746>.
4310 ** API and ABI modifications:
4311 No changes since last version.
4313 * Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
4315 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4316 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4318 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4321 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4322 for checks without limitation.
4324 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4325 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4326 strings and return the proper size.
4328 ** API and ABI modifications:
4329 No changes since last version.
4331 * Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
4333 ** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
4334 Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com>, see
4335 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202269>.
4337 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4338 in a callback friendly way.
4340 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4342 ** API and ABI modifications:
4343 No changes since last version.
4345 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
4347 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
4349 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
4350 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
4351 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
4352 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
4354 ** Translation updates.
4355 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
4357 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
4359 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
4361 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
4363 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
4365 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
4367 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
4369 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
4371 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
4372 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
4373 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
4374 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
4375 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
4376 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
4379 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
4380 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
4382 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
4383 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
4386 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
4388 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
4389 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
4390 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
4391 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
4392 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
4393 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
4394 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
4396 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
4397 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
4400 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
4401 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
4402 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
4403 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
4405 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
4406 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
4407 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
4408 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
4409 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
4410 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
4412 *** XML related changes
4413 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
4414 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
4415 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
4416 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
4417 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
4418 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
4419 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
4420 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
4422 *** TLS Authorization related changes
4423 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
4424 only stub functions that returned an error code:
4426 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
4427 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
4428 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
4429 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
4431 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
4432 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
4433 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
4434 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
4436 *** SRP related changes
4437 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
4438 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
4439 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
4440 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
4443 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
4444 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
4445 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
4446 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
4447 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
4448 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
4449 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
4450 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
4452 *** OpenPGP related changes
4453 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
4454 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
4455 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
4457 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
4458 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
4459 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
4460 The following have been removed:
4462 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
4463 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
4464 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
4465 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
4466 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
4467 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
4468 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
4470 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
4471 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
4472 (binary or base64). The functions are:
4473 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
4474 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
4475 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
4476 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
4478 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
4479 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
4480 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
4483 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
4484 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
4485 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
4486 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
4487 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
4488 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
4489 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
4490 gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import

4497 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
4498 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
4499 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id
4500 gnutls_openpgp_key_check_hostname gnutls_openpgp_crt_check_hostname
4501 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
4503 ** API and ABI modifications:
4504 No changes since last version.
4506 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
4508 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
4509 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
4510 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
4512 ** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
4514 ** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
4515 at gnutls_priority_set().
4517 ** Use gettext 0.17 which updates m4/lib-*.m4 macros.
4518 Fixes a problem with spurious -L/usr/lib additions.

4525 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
4527 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
4528 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
4529 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
4531 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
4532 the priority string.
4534 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
4535 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
4537 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.

4551 gnutls_set_default_priority: UNDEPRECATED
4552 gnutls_set_default_priority_export: UNDEPRECATED
4554 ** Undocumented API and ABI modifications earlier in the 2.1.x series:

4582 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
4583 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
4584 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
4585 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
4586 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
4587 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
4588 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
4589 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
4591 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
4593 ** API and ABI modifications:
4594 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.

4614 version 1 certificates.
4616 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
4617 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
4619 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
4621 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
4622 priorities preferences.
4624 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4625 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4628 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4629 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
4631 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
4632 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.
4634 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.5.

4673 * Version 2.1.3 (released 2007-10-17)
4675 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4676 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4677 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4678 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4679 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4680 lead the way with our own actions.
4682 ** Re-enabled the 256 bit ciphers in the default priorities.
4684 ** Corrected bugs in openpgp key verification using a keyring (both in

4697 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4698 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4700 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
4702 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
4703 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
4705 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
4707 ** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
4709 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4711 ** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.
4713 ** Added capability to set a callback after the client hello is received
4714 by the server in order to adjust parameters before the handshake.
4716 ** SRP was corrected to adhere to the latest draft (published soon as RFC)
4718 ** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting
4721 ** Updated the DN parser which now prints wrongly decoded values as hex
4724 ** certtool: Add option --quick-random.
4725 For generating low security test credentials.

4742 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
4744 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
4745 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
4746 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
4747 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
4748 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.
4750 ** Properly document in the NEWS file the API change in the last release.
4752 ** API and ABI modifications:
4753 No changes since last version.
4755 * Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
4757 ** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
4758 The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
4759 by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
4760 yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.
4763 ** Example code: Fix compilation flaw under MinGW.
4765 ** API and ABI modifications:
4766 gnutls_oprfi_callback_func: ADD, new typedef function prototype.
4767 gnutls_oprfi_enable_client: ADD, new function.
4768 gnutls_oprfi_enable_server: ADD, new function.
4770 * Version 2.0.4 (released 2007-11-16)
4772 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
4774 ** API and ABI modifications:
4775 No changes since last version.
4777 * Version 2.0.3 (released 2007-11-10)
4779 ** This version backports several fixes from the 2.1.x branch.
4781 ** Fixed PKCS #3 parameter export.
4783 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4784 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is

4793 ** API and ABI modifications:
4794 gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode: ADDED
4795 gnutls_record_disable_padding: ADDED
4797 * Version 2.0.2 (released 2007-10-17)
4799 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4800 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4801 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4802 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4803 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4804 lead the way with our own actions.
4806 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4808 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
4810 ** API and ABI modifications:
4811 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4812 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4814 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
4816 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
4817 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
4818 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
4820 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
4821 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
4822 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
4823 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
4825 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
4827 ** API and ABI modifications:
4828 No changes since last version.
4830 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
4832 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
4834 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
4836 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
4838 ** API and ABI modifications:
4839 No changes since last version.
4841 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
4843 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
4844 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
4845 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
4847 ** Update gnulib files.
4848 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
4849 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
4850 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
4851 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
4852 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
4853 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
4857 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
4859 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
4861 ** API and ABI modifications:
4862 No changes since last version.
4864 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
4866 ** Install images for the info manual.
4867 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
4868 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
4869 discussions on the approach chosen.
4871 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
4872 Patch extracted from
4873 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
4875 ** Fix warnings during build.
4876 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4878 ** API and ABI modifications:
4879 No changes since last version.
4881 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
4883 ** New functions to perform external signing.
4884 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
4885 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
4886 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
4887 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
4888 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
4889 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
4890 comments and testing.
4892 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
4893 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
4894 the new external signing callback interface.
4896 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
4897 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
4898 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
4899 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
4900 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
4901 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
4902 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
4903 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
4906 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
4907 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
4908 let's not enable it just yet.
4910 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
4911 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
4912 names without the '_t' suffix.
4914 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
4915 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4917 ** More documentation fixes.
4918 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4919 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4921 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
4922 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
4923 <po@danielnylander.se>.
4925 ** API and ABI modifications:
4926 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
4927 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
4928 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
4929 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
4930 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
4931 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
4932 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
4934 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
4936 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
4937 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
4938 suitable certificate was found.
4940 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
4941 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
4943 ** Documentation fixes.
4944 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4945 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4947 ** Update gnulib files.
4949 ** API and ABI modifications:
4950 No changes since last version.
4952 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
4954 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
4956 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
4957 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
4958 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
4959 libguile.h header installed.
4961 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
4962 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
4963 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
4964 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
4965 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
4966 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
4967 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
4969 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
4971 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.
4972 Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4974 ** Add Malay message translations.

5012 ** Build fixes for GnuTLS Guile bindings.
5013 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
5015 ** Build fix for GTK-DOC manual.

5022 * Version 1.7.12 (released 2007-06-08)
5024 ** Guile bindings for GnuTLS have been included.
5025 Contributed by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>. There is a
5026 new chapter 'Guile Bindings' in the manual.
5028 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.

5035 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5038 Reported by Dennis Vshivkov <walrus@amur.ru>, see
5039 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333050>. Added
5040 self-test tests/parse_ca.c to test regressions.
5042 ** Fix build failures related to missing images in manual.
5043 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.

5047 ** API and ABI modifications:
5048 No changes since last version.
5050 * Version 1.7.11 (released 2007-05-26)
5052 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
5053 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5055 ** API and ABI modifications:
5056 No changes since last version.
5058 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
5060 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5061 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
5063 ** Update of gnulib files.
5065 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
5066 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
5068 ** API and ABI modifications:
5069 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5070 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5072 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
5074 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
5075 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
5077 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
5078 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
5079 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
5080 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
5081 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
5082 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
5084 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
5086 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
5088 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5089 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5090 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5091 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5092 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5093 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5094 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5096 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5098 ** API and ABI modifications:
5099 No changes since last version.
5101 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
5103 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
5104 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
5106 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
5107 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
5109 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
5110 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
5111 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
5112 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
5113 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
5114 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
5115 been approved by the IETF.
5117 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
5118 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
5119 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
5121 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
5123 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
5124 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5126 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
5127 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
5128 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
5130 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
5131 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
5132 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
5133 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
5134 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5136 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
5138 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
5140 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
5141 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
5142 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
5143 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
5146 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
5147 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
5149 ** API and ABI modifications:
5150 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
5151 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
5152 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,
5153 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer: ADD.
5154 gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava: ADD.
5155 gnutls_cipher_list: ADD.
5156 gnutls_mac_list: ADD.
5157 gnutls_compression_list: ADD.
5158 gnutls_protocol_list: ADD.
5159 gnutls_certificate_type_list: ADD.
5160 gnutls_kx_list: ADD.
5161 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
5163 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
5165 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
5166 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
5167 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
5169 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5170 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
5172 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5173 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
5174 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
5175 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
5177 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5178 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
5180 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
5181 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
5183 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
5184 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
5186 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
5187 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
5189 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
5190 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
5191 string in the provided buffer.
5193 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
5194 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
5195 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
5197 ** API and ABI modifications:
5198 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
5199 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5200 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5201 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
5202 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
5203 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
5204 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
5205 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
5206 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
5207 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
5208 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
5209 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5210 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
5211 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
5213 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
5215 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
5216 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
5217 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
5218 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
5219 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
5220 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
5221 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
5222 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
5224 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
5225 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
5226 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
5228 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
5229 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
5230 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
5231 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
5233 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
5234 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
5235 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
5236 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
5238 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
5239 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
5241 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
5242 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
5245 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
5246 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5248 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
5249 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
5250 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
5254 ** API and ABI modifications:
5255 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
5256 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
5257 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
5258 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
5259 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
5260 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
5261 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5262 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5264 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
5266 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
5269 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
5271 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5272 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
5274 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
5275 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
5276 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
5278 ** Update of gnulib files.
5280 ** API and ABI modifications:
5281 No changes since last version.
5283 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
5285 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
5286 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
5287 testing all new hashes.
5289 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
5291 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
5293 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
5295 ** Update of gnulib files.
5297 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
5298 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
5299 missing unless the template specify it.
5301 ** API and ABI modifications:
5304 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
5307 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
5308 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
5309 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
5310 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
5312 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
5314 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
5315 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
5316 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
5317 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
5318 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
5319 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
5320 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
5321 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
5322 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
5324 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
5325 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
5327 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
5329 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
5331 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
5332 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
5333 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
5335 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
5336 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
5337 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
5340 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
5342 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
5343 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
5345 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
5346 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5348 ** Update of gnulib files.
5350 ** API and ABI modifications:
5351 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
5352 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
5353 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
5355 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
5357 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
5359 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
5360 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
5361 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5363 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
5364 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
5365 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
5366 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
5367 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
5368 will continue to be supported.
5370 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
5371 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
5372 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
5373 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
5375 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
5376 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
5377 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
5378 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5380 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
5381 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
5382 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
5383 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
5384 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
5385 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
5387 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
5388 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5390 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
5391 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
5392 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
5394 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
5395 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
5397 ** Update of gnulib files.
5399 ** API and ABI modifications:
5400 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
5401 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
5402 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5403 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5405 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5407 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
5408 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
5409 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
5410 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5412 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
5413 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5415 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5416 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5417 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5419 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5420 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
5421 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5423 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5424 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5425 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5426 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5427 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5430 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
5431 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5433 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
5434 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
5435 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
5437 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
5438 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
5440 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
5442 ** Update of gnulib files.
5444 ** API and ABI modifications:
5445 No changes since last version.
5447 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
5449 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
5450 The details is that the protocol priority set by
5451 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
5452 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
5454 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
5455 The client has been successfully tested against
5456 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
5458 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
5460 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
5462 ** Update of gnulib files.
5464 ** API and ABI modifications:
5465 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
5467 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
5469 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5470 This fixes the following error message:
5471 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5472 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5474 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
5476 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5477 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
5478 from the 1.7.x branch, see
5479 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
5481 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
5482 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
5483 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
5484 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
5486 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
5487 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
5488 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5490 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
5491 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
5492 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
5493 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
5494 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
5496 ** API and ABI modifications:
5497 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5498 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5500 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
5502 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5503 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5504 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5505 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5506 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5507 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5508 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5510 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
5511 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
5512 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
5513 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
5514 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
5515 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
5517 ** Updated translations.
5519 ** API and ABI modifications:
5520 No changes since last version.
5522 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5524 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5525 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5526 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5528 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5529 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5531 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5532 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5533 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5534 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5535 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5538 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5539 This fixes the following error message:
5540 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5541 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5543 ** API and ABI modifications:
5544 No changes since last version.
5546 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
5548 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
5549 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
5551 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
5552 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
5553 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
5555 *** Windows is a supported platform.
5556 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
5557 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
5558 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
5559 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
5561 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
5562 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
5563 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
5564 1.5.4 for more information.
5566 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
5568 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
5570 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
5571 This was forgotten in the last release.
5573 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
5574 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5576 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
5578 ** Update of gnulib files.
5580 ** API and ABI modifications:
5581 No changes since last version.
5583 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
5585 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
5586 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
5587 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
5588 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
5589 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
5590 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
5591 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
5592 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
5593 of these functions. It is recommended to use
5594 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
5595 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
5596 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
5597 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5599 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
5600 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
5602 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
5603 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
5604 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
5606 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
5607 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
5608 important fix is to change the return value of
5609 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
5610 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
5611 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
5612 compatible with 'int').
5614 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
5615 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
5616 ** instead of the lowest.
5617 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
5619 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
5620 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
5621 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
5622 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
5624 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
5625 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
5626 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
5628 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
5630 ** Update of gnulib files.
5632 ** API and ABI modifications:
5633 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
5634 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
5636 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
5638 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
5639 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
5640 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
5641 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
5642 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
5644 ** Re-factor self tests.
5646 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
5648 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
5650 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
5652 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
5653 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
5654 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
5655 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
5658 ** API and ABI modifications:
5659 No changes since last version.
5661 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
5663 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
5664 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
5665 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
5666 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
5667 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
5668 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
5669 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5671 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
5672 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
5673 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"

5684 ** API and ABI modifications:
5685 No changes since last version.
5687 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
5689 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5690 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5691 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5692 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
5693 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5694 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
5695 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka

5698 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
5699 up to date information.
5701 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
5703 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
5704 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
5705 indicate that the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
5706 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
5708 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
5709 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5711 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
5712 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
5713 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
5714 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5716 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
5717 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
5718 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
5719 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
5721 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
5723 ** API and ABI modifications:
5724 No changes since last version.
5726 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
5728 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
5730 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5732 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
5733 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
5734 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
5735 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
5736 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
5737 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
5738 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
5739 create *.def files, which are installed.
5741 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
5742 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
5743 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
5746 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".

5752 This enables 'make distcheck' to succeed.
5754 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
5756 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5757 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.

5782 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
5783 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
5784 ** verification logic flaw.
5785 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
5786 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
5789 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
5790 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
5791 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
5792 oracle in typical recommended situations.
5794 ** API and ABI modifications:

5799 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5800 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5801 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5802 empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be used to

5823 * Version 1.4.2 (released 2006-08-12)
5825 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
5826 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
5827 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
5828 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
5829 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
5830 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
5831 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
5832 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
5833 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
5834 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.

5840 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5841 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
5843 ** API and ABI modifications:
5844 No changes since last version.
5846 * Version 1.4.1 (released 2006-06-14)
5848 ** Replaced inactive ifdefs to enable openpgp support in test programs.
5850 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5852 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.
5854 ** Build fixes of the manual.
5856 ** Added Swedish translation.
5858 ** API and ABI modifications:
5859 No changes since last version.
5861 * Version 1.4.0 (released 2006-05-15)
5863 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
5865 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
5867 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
5868 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
5869 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
5872 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
5874 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
5876 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
5878 ** API and ABI modifications:
5879 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
5880 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
5881 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
5882 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
5884 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
5886 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
5888 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
5889 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
5890 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
5891 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
5892 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
5893 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
5894 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
5895 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
5896 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
5898 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
5899 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
5901 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
5903 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
5904 The include copy has been updated too.
5906 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.
5908 ** API and ABI modifications:
5909 No changes since last version.
5911 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
5913 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
5914 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
5915 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
5916 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
5919 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
5920 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
5921 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
5922 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
5924 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
5925 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
5926 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
5928 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
5929 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
5931 ** API and ABI modifications:
5932 No changes since last version.
5934 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
5936 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
5937 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
5938 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5940 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
5941 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
5942 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
5943 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
5945 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
5947 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
5949 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
5950 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
5951 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
5952 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
5953 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
5954 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
5955 roughly at the same time.
5957 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
5959 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
5961 ** API and ABI modifications:
5962 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
5963 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
5965 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
5966 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
5968 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
5970 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
5971 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
5972 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
5973 GNU General Public License.
5975 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
5976 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
5977 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
5978 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
5979 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5981 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
5982 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
5983 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
5984 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
5985 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
5986 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5988 ** Internal type cleanups.
5989 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
5990 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
5991 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
5992 replaced by unsigned.
5994 ** API and ABI modifications:
5995 New functions to invoke the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF):
5999 New functions to retrieve the session's client and server random values:
6000 gnutls_session_get_server_random
6001 gnutls_session_get_client_random
6003 New function, to perform TLS/IA handshake:
6006 New function to decide whether to do a TLS/IA handshake:
6007 gnutls_ia_handshake_p
6009 New functions to allocate a TLS/IA credential:
6010 gnutls_ia_allocate_client_credentials
6011 gnutls_ia_free_client_credentials
6012 gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials
6013 gnutls_ia_free_server_credentials

6020 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_ptr
6021 gnutls_ia_get_server_avp_ptr
6023 New functions, to toggle TLS/IA application phases:
6024 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase
6026 New function to mix session keys with inner secret:
6027 gnutls_ia_permute_inner_secret
6029 Low-level API (used internally by gnutls_ia_handshake):
6030 gnutls_ia_endphase_send
6034 New functions that can be used after successful TLS/IA negotiation:
6035 gnutls_ia_generate_challenge
6036 gnutls_ia_extract_inner_secret
6038 Enum type with TLS/IA modes:
6041 Enum type with TLS/IA packet types:
6044 Enum values for TLS/IA alerts:
6045 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_FAILURE
6046 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_VERIFICATION
6048 New error codes, to signal when an application phase has finished:
6049 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_IPHF_RECEIVED
6050 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_FPHF_RECEIVED
6052 New error code to signal TLS/IA verify failure:
6053 GNUTLS_E_IA_VERIFY_FAILED
6055 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
6057 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
6058 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
6060 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
6061 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
6063 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
6064 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
6066 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
6067 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
6068 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6070 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
6071 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
6072 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
6073 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
6074 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
6075 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
6076 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
6077 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
6080 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
6081 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6082 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
6084 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
6085 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
6086 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
6088 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
6089 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
6092 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
6093 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
6094 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
6097 ** API and ABI modifications:
6098 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
6099 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
6101 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
6104 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
6105 gnutls_session_get_data2
6107 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
6108 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
6110 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
6112 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
6113 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
6114 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
6115 test this functionality.
6117 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
6119 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
6121 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
6123 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.
6125 ** Fixes for Tru64 UNIX 4.0D that lack MAP_FAILED, from Albert Chin.
6127 ** Remove trailing comma in enums, for IBM C v6, from Albert Chin.
6129 ** Make sure config.h is included first in a few files, from Albert Chin.
6131 ** Don't use C++ comments ("//") as they are invalid, from Albert Chin.
6133 ** Don't install SRP programs and man pages if --disable-srp-authentication,

6139 New gnutls_credentials_type_t credential type:
6142 New credential types:
6143 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t

6174 gnutls_srp_base64_decode
6176 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
6177 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
6178 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
6179 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
6181 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
6182 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
6183 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
6184 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
6185 - API and ABI modifications:
6186 No changes since last version.
6188 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
6189 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
6190 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
6191 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
6192 The included version has been updated too.
6193 - Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
6194 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
6195 - Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
6196 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
6197 - Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
6198 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
6199 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
6200 - Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
6201 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
6202 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
6203 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
6205 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
6206 - Documentation was updated and improved.
6207 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
6208 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
6209 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
6210 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
6211 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
6212 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
6213 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
6214 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
6215 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
6216 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
6217 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
6218 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
6219 to align with the send(2) API.
6220 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
6221 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
6222 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
6223 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
6224 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
6225 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
6226 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
6227 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
6228 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
6229 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
6230 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
6231 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
6232 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
6233 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
6234 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
6235 - API and ABI modifications:
6236 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
6237 This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
6238 so we don't break backwards compatibility.
6239 GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
6240 GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
6241 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
6242 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
6244 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
6245 gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
6246 gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
6247 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
6248 used when broken signature algorithms
6249 is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
6250 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
6251 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
6252 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
6253 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
6254 version number, can be used for feature existence
6257 * Version 1.2.8 (2005-10-07)
6258 - Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
6259 - Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
6260 examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
6261 from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
6262 - If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
6263 tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
6264 validation fails. Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
6265 after certificate validation failures. Inspired from discussion
6266 with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.
6267 - The test for socklen_t has been moved to gnulib.
6268 - Link failures for duplicate or missing "program_name" symbol has been fixed,

6329 - Introduced the --fix-key option to certtool, which can be used to
6330 regenerate the (optional) parameters in a private key. It should
6331 be used together with --key-info.

6354 and made source code include external include file, to check
6355 function prototypes during compile time.
6356 - API and ABI modifications:
6357 No changes since last version. At least not intentional, but due
6358 to the include header changes, there may be inadvertant changes,
6359 please let us know if you find any.

6366 - Added warning to certtool when MD5 is being used for digital
6368 - Optimizations ("-O2 -finline-functions") are not enabled by default,
6369 instead the standard autoconf defaults are used. Use `./configure
6370 CFLAGS="-O2 -finline-functions"' to get the old optimizations.
6371 - Added the option --get-dh-params to certtool, in order to get the
6372 parameters included in the library primes and generators.

6408 gnutls_x509_rdn_get now set *sizeof_buf to the buffer length that is
6409 required, instead of the string length. That is, the value has been
6410 incremented by 1 to account for the terminating zero. Reported by
6411 Martin Lambers <marlam@web.de>.
