10 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-tls was split to --benchmark-tls-kx
11 and --benchmark-tls-ciphers
13 ** certtool: generated PKCS #12 structures may hold more than one
14 private key. Patch by Lucas Fisher.
16 ** libgnutls: Added support for an old version of the DTLS protocol
17 used by openconnect vpn client for compatibility with Cisco's AnyConnect
18 SSL VPN. It is marked as GNUTLS_DTLS0_9. Do not use it for newer protocols
19 as it has issues. Implemented by David Woodhouse.

265 under the gnutls_ocsp namespace. Currently the functionality provided
266 is to parse and extract information from OCSP requests/responses, to
267 generate OCSP requests and to verify OCSP responses. See the manual
268 for more information. Run ./configure with --disable-ocsp to build
269 GnuTLS without OCSP support.

394 allow listing the ciphersuites enabled in a priority structure.
395 It outputs an index to be used in gnutls_get_cipher_suite_info().
397 ** libgnutls: Optimizations in the elliptic curve code --timing
398 attacks resistant code is only used in ECDSA private key operations.
400 ** doc: man pages for API functions generation was fixed and are
401 now added again in the distribution.

621 ** libgnutls: Added AES-256-GCM which was left out from
622 the previous release. Reported by Benjamin Hof.
624 ** libgnutls: When asking for a PKCS# 11 PIN multiple
625 times, the flags in the callback were not being updated
626 to reflect for PIN low count or final try.
628 ** libgnutls: Do not allow second instances of PKCS #11

702 keep the data until handshake is over and hash them on request.
703 This uses more memory but eliminates issues with TLS 1.2 and
706 ** libgnutls: Added AES-GCM optimizations using the PCLMULQDQ
707 instruction. Uses Andy Polyakov's assembly code.
709 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt() and
710 gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_named_crt() that allow having a

1143 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
1144 introduced with the new nettle code.
1146 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
1148 ** API and ABI modifications:
1149 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
1150 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
1152 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
1154 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
1155 to use the libgcrypt back end.
1157 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
1158 backend crypto library.
1160 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
1162 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
1164 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
1165 tabs are being skipped.
1167 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
1169 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
1172 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
1173 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
1174 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
1176 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
1177 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
1178 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
1179 and 3072 keys only).
1181 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1182 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1183 is unable to decode the key.
1185 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
1187 ** API and ABI modifications:
1188 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1189 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1191 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
1193 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
1194 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
1195 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
1198 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
1199 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
1200 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
1201 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
1202 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
1203 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
1204 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
1206 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
1210 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
1212 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
1213 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
1214 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
1216 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
1219 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
1220 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
1222 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
1223 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
1225 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
1226 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
1227 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
1228 the OPRFI extension was removed.
1230 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
1232 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
1233 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
1234 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
1236 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
1238 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
1239 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
1240 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
1242 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
1243 works even when resuming a session.
1245 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
1246 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
1247 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
1248 PKCS #11 private keys.
1250 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
1251 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
1253 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
1254 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
1256 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
1257 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
1258 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
1260 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1261 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
1262 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1264 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
1267 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
1268 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
1269 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
1270 connections using a url such as:
1271 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

1352 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
1354 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
1357 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
1359 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1360 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1361 is unable to decode the key.
1363 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
1364 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
1366 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
1367 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
1369 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1370 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
1371 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1373 ** API and ABI modifications:
1374 No changes since last version.
1376 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
1378 ** API and ABI modifications:
1379 No changes since last version.
1381 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
1383 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
1384 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
1387 ** API and ABI modifications:
1388 No changes since last version.
1390 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
1392 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
1393 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
1394 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
1395 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
1396 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
1398 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
1399 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
1401 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
1403 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
1405 ** API and ABI modifications:
1406 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
1407 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
1409 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
1411 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
1412 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
1415 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
1416 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
1417 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
1419 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
1420 Solves the issue discussed in:
1421 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
1422 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
1423 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
1424 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
1425 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
1426 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
1427 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
1428 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
1430 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
1432 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
1435 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
1436 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
1437 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
1438 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
1440 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
1441 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
1442 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
1443 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
1444 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
1445 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
1446 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
1447 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
1449 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
1450 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
1451 end of the handshake.
1453 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
1454 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
1456 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
1457 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
1458 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
1459 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
1460 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
1461 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
1462 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
1463 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
1464 now different than previous gnutls releases.
1465 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
1467 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
1469 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
1471 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

1534 No changes since last version.
1536 * Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
1538 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
1539 Reported by Tang Tong.
1541 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
1542 ** extension and certificate verify field.
1543 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
1544 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
1545 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
1546 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
1549 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
1550 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
1552 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
1554 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
1555 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
1556 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
1558 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
1559 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem
1560 introduced for the v2.8.x branch in 2.7.6.
1562 ** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
1563 To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
1565 ** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
1567 ** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.
1568 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
1569 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3925>.
1571 ** tests: Fix expired cert in chainverify self-test.

1617 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid: ADDED.
1619 * Version 2.9.4 (released 2009-09-03)
1621 ** libgnutls: Client-side TLS 1.2 and SHA-256 ciphersuites now works.
1622 The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
1623 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
1624 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
1627 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
1628 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
1629 OpenPGP hostname comparison.
1631 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
1632 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
1633 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
1635 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
1636 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
1637 error, to prevent this from happening again.
1639 ** API and ABI modifications:
1640 No changes since last version.
1642 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
1644 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
1645 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
1646 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
1647 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
1649 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.
1651 ** API and ABI modifications:
1652 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate: ADDED.

1654 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server: ADDED.
1656 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
1658 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
1659 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
1660 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
1661 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
1662 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
1663 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
1664 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
1665 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
1666 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
1667 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
1668 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
1669 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
1670 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
1671 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
1673 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
1674 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
1675 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
1677 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
1679 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
1680 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson

1686 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse

1690 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
1691 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
1692 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
1693 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in

1708 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
1709 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
1710 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
1711 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
1712 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
1713 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.
1715 ** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.
1717 ** tests: Improved test vectors in self-test pkcs12_s2k.
1719 ** tests: Added new self-test dn2 to detect off-by-one size error.

1750 ** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
1751 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
1752 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
1754 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
1755 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
1756 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
1758 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
1759 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
1760 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
1761 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
1762 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
1763 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.

2022 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
2023 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
2026 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
2027 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
2033 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
2034 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
2035 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
2036 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
2037 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
2038 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
2040 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
2041 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
2042 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
2043 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
2046 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
2047 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
2048 also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected
2051 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
2052 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
2053 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
2054 GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
2055 GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
2056 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
2058 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
2059 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
2061 The following symbols have been added to the library:

2219 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2220 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2222 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2223 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
2224 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
2225 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
2226 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
2227 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
2228 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
2229 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2230 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2231 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
2233 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
2234 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
2235 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
2236 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
2237 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
2238 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
2239 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
2240 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
2243 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
2244 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
2245 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
2246 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
2247 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
2248 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
2251 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
2252 This should have been done in the last release.
2254 ** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
2255 Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2256 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3476>.
2258 ** doc: Improved sections for the info manual.
2259 We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
2260 directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
2261 'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command
2262 line tools moved from 'Network Applications' to 'System
2265 ** API and ABI modifications:

2275 ** libgnutls: Applied patch by Cedric Bail to add functions
2276 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash() and gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm().
2278 ** gnutls.pc: Add -ltasn1 to 'pkg-config --libs --static gnutls' output.

2289 ** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
2290 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
2291 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
2293 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.
2294 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>
2296 ** API and ABI modifications:
2297 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
2298 gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
2300 * Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
2302 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
2303 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
2305 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
2307 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
2308 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
2309 be used for chain verification.
2311 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
2312 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
2314 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
2315 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
2316 information. This avoids code duplication.
2318 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
2319 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
2320 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
2323 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
2324 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
2325 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2327 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
2329 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
2331 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
2333 ** API and ABI modifications:
2334 No changes since last version.
2336 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
2338 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2339 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2340 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2341 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2342 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2343 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2344 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2345 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2346 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2347 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
2348 <deengert@anl.gov> in
2349 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2351 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
2352 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
2354 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
2355 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
2356 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
2358 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2359 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2360 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2361 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
2362 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
2363 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2365 ** API and ABI modifications:
2366 No changes since last version.
2368 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
2370 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2371 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2372 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2373 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2374 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2375 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
2376 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
2377 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
2379 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
2380 Patch from David MarÃn Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
2381 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
2383 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
2385 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
2386 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
2387 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
2388 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
2389 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
2390 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
2392 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
2394 ** API and ABI modifications:
2395 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
2397 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
2399 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
2400 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in

2403 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
2405 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
2406 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
2407 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
2408 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
2409 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
2410 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
2411 real change in behaviour.
2413 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
2414 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
2415 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
2417 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
2419 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
2420 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
2422 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
2424 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
2426 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
2428 ** API and ABI modifications:
2429 No changes since last version.
2431 * Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
2433 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2434 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2435 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2436 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2437 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
2439 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
2440 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
2442 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
2443 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
2444 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2445 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
2446 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2447 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
2448 work but are deprecated.
2450 ** certtool: allow setting arbitrary key purpose object identifiers.
2452 ** libgnutls: Fix detection of C99 macros, to make debug logging work again.
2454 ** libgnutls: Add missing prototype for gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.

2573 Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
2574 DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
2575 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2577 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2578 Reported by Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com>. Before the
2579 library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
2580 was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
2581 applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
2582 proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
2583 to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
2584 time (as reported by the time function) is within the
2585 activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
2588 This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
2589 turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
2590 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
2591 gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
2592 condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
2593 add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2594 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2597 More details about the vulnerabilities will be posted at

2600 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-cli-debug: Fix AIX build problem.
2601 Reported by LAUPRETRE François (P) <francois.laupretre@ratp.fr> in
2602 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3468>.
2604 ** tests: Fix linking of tests/openpgp/keyring self-test.
2605 Reported by Daniel Black in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106543>.
2607 ** API and ABI modifications:
2608 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
2609 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
2610 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
2611 GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
2612 GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
2613 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
2615 * Version 2.6.5 (released 2009-04-11)
2617 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
2618 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
2619 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2621 ** GnuTLS no longer uses the libtasn1-config script to find libtasn1.
2622 Libtasn1 0.3.4 or later is required. This is to align with the
2623 upcoming libtasn1 v2.0 release that doesn't have a libtasn1-script.
2625 ** API and ABI modifications:
2626 No changes since last version.
2628 * Version 2.6.4 (released 2009-02-06)
2630 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2631 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2632 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2633 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2634 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2635 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2636 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2637 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2638 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2639 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"

2641 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2643 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
2644 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
2646 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
2647 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
2648 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
2650 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2651 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2652 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2653 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by

2655 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2657 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2658 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2659 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2660 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2661 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2662 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,

2685 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
2686 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
2688 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
2690 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
2692 ** API and ABI modifications:
2693 No changes since last version.
2695 * Version 2.6.2 (released 2008-11-12)
2697 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
2698 The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
2699 problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
2700 certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org> in

2708 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2709 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2710 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2711 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2712 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]

2742 Problem in X509_get_subject_name and X509_get_issuer_name. Tiny patch
2743 from Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>.
2745 ** certtool: Use inet_pton for parsing IPv6 addresses.
2747 ** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
2749 *** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
2751 *** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
2753 *** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
2755 *** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
2756 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
2757 such as IP addresses.
2759 *** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
2760 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
2762 *** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
2763 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
2764 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id.
2766 *** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
2767 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
2769 *** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
2770 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
2772 *** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
2773 *** from a private key.
2774 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw.
2776 *** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
2777 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
2778 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
2780 *** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
2782 *** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
2783 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
2784 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
2785 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
2786 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
2789 *** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
2790 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
2791 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
2794 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
2795 No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
2796 fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
2798 A new header file <gnutls/crypto.h> have been added. It contains
2799 definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
2800 All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
2802 We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
2803 does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
2804 and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
2806 The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
2810 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2

2846 Report and patch by Jonathan Manktelow.
2848 ** libgnutls: crypto.h gnutls_pk_params_st changes allocation strategy.
2849 The parameters are now allocated in the structure itself.
2851 ** doc: Texinfo HTML manual uses a stylesheet to improve readability.
2853 ** tests: Scripts now use EXEEXT properly.
2854 Modern libtool doesn't create wrapper script, so the self tests need
2855 to invoke certtool.exe under MinGW32+Wine.
2857 ** Uses autoconf 2.63, automake 1.10.1, libtool 2.2.6a.
2858 Automake warnings are now also enabled.
2860 ** API and ABI modifications:
2861 gnutls_pk_params_st: MODIFIED
2863 * Version 2.5.8 (released 2008-09-21)
2865 ** certtool: updated so it can add several subject alternative names using
2868 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can

2948 * Version 2.5.5 (released 2008-08-29)
2950 ** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
2951 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
2953 ** libgnutls: Fix include paths so that building with internal libtasn1 works.
2954 Reported by "jth.net ApS" <info@jth.net>.
2956 ** libgnutls: Fix segmentation fault when generating private keys.
2957 Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
2959 ** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
2960 The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
2961 it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
2962 old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
2963 to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
2964 by Christian Grothoff <christian@grothoff.org>.
2966 ** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
2967 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
2969 ** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
2971 ** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.
2973 ** Add French translation, thanks to Nicolas Provost.

2976 gnutls_strerror_name: ADDED
2978 * Version 2.5.4 (released 2008-08-19)
2980 ** Fix secure memory initialization of libgcrypt.

2993 ** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
2994 ** from a private key.
2995 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
2996 discussion with "Zach C." <fxchip@gmail.com>.
2998 ** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
2999 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3000 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3002 ** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
3003 Reported in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106453>.
3005 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3006 The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
3007 names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
3008 likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
3009 the namespace violation.
3011 ** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
3013 ** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
3015 ** API and ABI modifications:

3020 GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE: ADDED
3021 TLS_MASTER_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3022 TLS_RANDOM_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3024 * Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
3026 ** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
3027 The prime and generator was swapped.
3029 ** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3030 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3031 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3032 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3033 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3036 ** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
3037 This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
3038 The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
3039 libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong

3043 gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
3044 gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
3045 gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED

3052 ** API and ABI modifications:
3053 No changes since last version.
3055 * Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
3057 ** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.
3059 ** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3060 The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
3063 ** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
3065 ** Update gnulib and translations.
3066 The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
3067 and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
3068 implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later

3082 * Version 2.4.3 (released 2009-02-06)
3084 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
3085 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
3086 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
3087 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
3088 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
3089 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
3090 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
3091 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
3092 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
3093 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"

3191 ** API and ABI modifications:
3192 No changes since last version.
3194 * Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
3196 ** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3198 *** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
3200 *** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
3201 *** derivation and PSK identity hints.
3202 The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
3203 draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
3205 *** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3206 This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
3207 The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3209 *** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
3211 *** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
3212 It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
3213 CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
3215 *** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3216 The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
3217 but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
3220 *** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
3222 *** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
3223 Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3225 *** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
3227 *** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
3228 *** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
3229 Thanks to Joe Orton.
3231 *** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
3233 *** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
3234 The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
3235 reflect, so the following name change has been made:
3238 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
3239 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
3240 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
3242 The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
3244 *** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
3245 *** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
3246 A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
3249 *** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
3251 *** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
3252 We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
3254 *** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
3256 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
3257 All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
3258 libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
3259 Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
3260 libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
3261 version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
3262 All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
3263 possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
3264 and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
3265 the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
3266 the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.
3268 This release adds the following functions:
3270 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint
3271 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint
3272 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key
3274 Used to get/set the PSK identity hint, and derive PSK keys from
3275 passwords a'la netconf.
3277 gnutls_x509_dn_deinit
3278 gnutls_x509_dn_export
3279 gnutls_x509_dn_import
3282 Used to handle X.509 Certificate DN's directly.
3286 Converts a data buffer to hex. Useful for handling PSK/SRP shared
3289 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
3290 gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
3291 gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
3293 Functions for direct access to credential elements.
3295 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey
3296 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id
3297 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_dsa_raw
3298 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_rsa_raw

3332 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_pk_algorithm
3333 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_revoked_status
3334 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_set_preferred_key_id
3336 New OpenPGP related functions.
3338 The function gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id is the same as the old
3339 from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
3341 The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
3342 is currently not used.
3344 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
3345 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3347 ** API and ABI modifications:
3348 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3349 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3351 * Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
3353 ** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
3354 It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.

3357 No changes since last version.
3359 * Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
3361 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
3362 An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
3365 ** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
3366 Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
3368 ** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
3369 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3371 ** API and ABI modifications:
3372 No changes since last version.
3374 * Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
3376 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
3378 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
3380 ** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
3382 ** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
3383 The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
3384 printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
3385 follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
3386 '--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
3389 ** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
3390 Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
3392 ** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
3393 None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
3394 or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
3395 set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
3398 ** API and ABI modifications:
3399 No changes since last version.
3401 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
3403 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
3405 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
3406 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
3408 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
3409 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3411 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
3412 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
3413 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
3414 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
3415 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3417 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
3418 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
3419 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
3422 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
3423 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
3425 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
3427 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
3428 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
3429 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
3431 *** New PSK example client and server.
3432 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
3434 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
3435 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
3436 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
3437 <l@lwithers.me.uk> in
3438 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
3440 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
3441 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
3443 ** API and ABI modifications:
3444 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
3445 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
3446 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
3447 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
3449 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
3451 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3452 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3453 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3454 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler

3458 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
3459 Fixes builds under Windows.
3461 ** Make umask a requirement.
3462 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
3465 ** Update gnulib files.
3466 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
3467 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
3469 ** API and ABI modifications:
3470 No changes since last version.
3472 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
3474 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
3475 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
3477 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3478 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3479 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3480 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3481 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to

3484 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3485 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3486 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3487 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3488 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3489 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3491 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3492 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3493 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3494 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3495 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3497 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3498 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3499 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3500 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3501 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3503 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
3504 Villanueva Che (discussion at
3505 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
3507 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
3509 ** API and ABI modifications:
3510 No changes since last version.
3512 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
3514 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
3515 Based on report and tiny patches from
3516 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
3517 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
3519 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
3521 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
3522 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
3524 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
3525 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
3526 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
3527 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
3528 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
3530 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
3531 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
3532 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
3533 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
3535 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
3537 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
3538 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
3539 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
3541 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
3543 ** Update of gnulib files.
3545 ** API and ABI modifications:
3546 No changes since last version.
3548 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
3550 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3551 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3552 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3553 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3554 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3555 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3557 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
3558 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
3559 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
3562 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
3563 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
3564 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
3566 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
3567 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
3569 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3570 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
3571 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3573 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
3575 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
3577 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
3578 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
3579 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
3581 ** Update of gnulib files.
3583 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
3585 ** API and ABI modifications:
3586 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
3588 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
3590 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
3592 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
3593 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
3594 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
3596 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
3598 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
3599 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
3600 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
3601 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
3602 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
3605 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
3607 ** API and ABI modifications:
3608 No changes since last version.
3610 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
3612 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
3613 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
3614 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
3615 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
3617 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
3618 Based on HPUX build hints in
3619 <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>.
3621 ** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
3622 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3623 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3625 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
3626 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
3627 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
3628 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
3629 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3630 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3632 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
3633 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
3634 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
3636 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
3638 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
3639 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
3640 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
3641 maintain an external library (help welcome).
3643 ** API and ABI modifications:
3644 No changes since last version.
3646 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
3648 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
3649 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3650 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1145>.
3652 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
3653 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
3655 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
3657 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
3658 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
3660 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
3661 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
3662 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
3664 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
3666 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
3667 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
3669 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
3671 ** Update gnulib files.
3673 ** API and ABI modifications:
3674 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
3675 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
3676 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
3677 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
3678 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
3679 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
3680 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
3681 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
3682 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
3684 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
3686 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
3687 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
3689 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
3690 override the included ones.
3692 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
3694 ** API and ABI modifications:
3695 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
3696 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
3697 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
3698 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
3699 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
3700 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
3701 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
3703 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
3705 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
3706 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
3708 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
3709 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
3710 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
3711 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
3712 not documented until now.)
3714 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
3715 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
3716 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
3717 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
3718 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
3719 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
3720 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
3721 to trigger the problem. See also
3722 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
3724 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
3725 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
3727 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
3729 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
3731 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
3732 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
3733 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
3735 ** Updated translations.
3737 ** Update gnulib files.
3739 ** API and ABI modifications:
3740 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
3741 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
3743 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
3745 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
3747 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
3749 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
3751 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.
3752 See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-02/msg00043.html>.
3754 ** Internal header files cleanup.
3756 ** API and ABI modifications:
3757 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
3758 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
3759 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
3760 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
3762 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
3764 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
3765 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
3768 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
3769 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
3771 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
3773 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
3776 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
3777 for checks without limitation.
3779 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
3780 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
3781 strings and return the proper size.
3783 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
3784 This collects all problems related to record padding with
3785 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
3787 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
3788 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to
3789 draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-00.txt.
3791 ** certtool can print information on OpenPGP certificates and keys.
3793 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_import/init/deinit() to access raw DER DN.
3796 ** Added gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and other functions to
3797 export elements from the certificate credentials structure. Based on
3798 suggestion from Joe Orton.
3801 Clarify that srp_base64 is not the same as normal base64.
3803 ** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.
3805 ** API and ABI modifications:
3806 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: ADDED
3807 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: ADDED
3808 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: ADDED
3809 gnutls_openpgp_keyid_t: ADDED, instead of hard-coded 'unsigned char[8]'.
3810 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id: ADDED, obsoletes gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id.
3811 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_revoked_status: ADDED
3812 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_count: ADDED
3813 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_idx: ADDED
3814 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_revoked_status: ADDED
3815 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_pk_algorithm: ADDED
3816 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_creation_time: ADDED
3817 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_expiration_time: ADDED

3847 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE.
3848 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL: ADDED, same as
3849 old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL.
3851 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
3853 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3854 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
3855 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
3856 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
3857 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
3858 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
3860 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
3861 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
3863 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
3864 in a callback friendly way.
3866 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
3868 ** Updated translations.
3870 ** Update gnulib files.
3872 ** API and ABI modifications:
3873 No changes since last version.
3875 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
3877 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3878 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3879 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3880 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
3881 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3882 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
3884 ** API and ABI modifications:
3885 No changes since last version.
3887 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
3889 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3890 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3891 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3892 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3893 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
3894 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3896 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3897 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3898 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3899 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3900 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3901 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3903 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3904 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3905 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3906 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3907 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3909 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3910 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3911 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3912 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3913 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3915 ** API and ABI modifications:
3916 No changes since last version.
3918 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
3920 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3921 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3922 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3923 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3924 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3925 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3927 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
3928 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
3929 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
3931 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
3933 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
3934 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
3935 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
3937 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
3938 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
3939 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
3941 ** Make Camellia encryption work.
3942 Reported by Yoshisato YANAGISAWA <yanagisawa@csg.is.titech.ac.jp> in
3943 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2746>.
3945 ** API and ABI modifications:
3946 No changes since last version.
3948 * Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
3950 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
3951 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
3953 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
3956 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
3957 for checks without limitation.
3959 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
3960 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
3961 strings and return the proper size.
3963 ** API and ABI modifications:
3964 No changes since last version.
3966 * Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
3968 ** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
3969 Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com>, see
3970 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202269>.
3972 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
3973 in a callback friendly way.
3975 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
3977 ** API and ABI modifications:
3978 No changes since last version.
3980 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
3982 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
3984 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
3985 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
3986 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
3987 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
3989 ** Translation updates.
3990 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
3992 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
3994 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
3996 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
3998 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
4000 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
4002 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
4004 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
4006 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
4007 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
4008 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
4009 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
4010 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
4011 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
4014 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
4015 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
4017 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
4018 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
4021 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
4023 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
4024 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
4025 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
4026 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
4027 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
4028 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
4029 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
4031 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
4032 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
4035 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
4036 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
4037 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
4038 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
4040 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
4041 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
4042 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
4043 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
4044 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
4045 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
4047 *** XML related changes
4048 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
4049 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
4050 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
4051 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
4052 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
4053 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
4054 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
4055 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
4057 *** TLS Authorization related changes
4058 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
4059 only stub functions that returned an error code:
4061 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
4062 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
4063 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
4064 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
4066 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
4067 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
4068 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
4069 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
4071 *** SRP related changes
4072 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
4073 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
4074 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
4075 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
4078 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
4079 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
4080 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
4081 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
4082 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
4083 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
4084 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
4085 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
4087 *** OpenPGP related changes
4088 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
4089 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
4090 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
4092 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
4093 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
4094 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
4095 The following have been removed:
4097 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
4098 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
4099 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
4100 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
4101 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
4102 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
4103 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
4105 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
4106 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
4107 (binary or base64). The functions are:
4108 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
4109 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
4110 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
4111 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
4113 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
4114 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
4115 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
4118 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
4119 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
4120 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
4121 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
4122 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
4123 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
4124 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
4125 gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import
4126 gnutls_openpgp_key_export gnutls_openpgp_crt_export
4127 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_key_usage gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_usage
4128 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_fingerprint gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_fingerprint
4129 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_algorithm
4130 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_name gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_name
4131 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_version gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_version
4132 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
4133 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
4134 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id
4135 gnutls_openpgp_key_check_hostname gnutls_openpgp_crt_check_hostname
4136 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
4138 ** API and ABI modifications:
4139 No changes since last version.
4141 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
4143 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
4144 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
4145 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
4147 ** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
4149 ** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
4150 at gnutls_priority_set().
4152 ** Use gettext 0.17 which updates m4/lib-*.m4 macros.
4153 Fixes a problem with spurious -L/usr/lib additions.
4155 ** API and ABI modifications:
4156 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2: ADD.
4158 * Version 2.1.7 (released 2007-11-29)
4160 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
4162 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
4163 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
4164 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
4166 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
4167 the priority string.
4169 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
4170 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
4172 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.
4174 ** API and ABI modifications:
4175 gnutls_priority_init: ADD.
4176 gnutls_priority_deinit: ADD.
4177 gnutls_priority_set: ADD.
4178 gnutls_priority_set_direct: ADD.
4179 gnutls_set_default_priority2: RENAMED to gnutls_priority_set_direct()
4180 gnutls_mac_convert_priority: REMOVED
4181 gnutls_compression_convert_priority: REMOVED
4182 gnutls_protocol_convert_priority: REMOVED
4183 gnutls_kx_convert_priority: REMOVED
4184 gnutls_cipher_convert_priority: REMOVED
4185 gnutls_certificate_type_convert_priority: REMOVED
4186 gnutls_set_default_priority: UNDEPRECATED

4190 GNUTLS_CIPHER_UNKNOWN: ADD.
4191 GNUTLS_CIPHER_CAMELLIA_128_CBC: ADD.
4192 GNUTLS_CIPHER_CAMELLIA_256_CBC: ADD.

4194 GNUTLS_COMP_UNKNOWN: ADD.
4195 GNUTLS_CRT_UNKNOWN: ADD.
4196 gnutls_mac_get_id: ADD.
4197 gnutls_compression_get_id: ADD.
4198 gnutls_cipher_get_id: ADD.
4199 gnutls_kx_get_id: ADD.
4200 gnutls_protocol_get_id: ADD.

4202 gnutls_handshake_post_client_hello_func: ADD.
4203 gnutls_certificate_send_x509_rdn_sequence: ADD prototype to gnutls.h.in.
4205 * Version 2.1.6 (released 2007-11-15)
4207 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
4209 ** Added the --to-p8 option to certtool to convert private keys
4212 ** Introduced the GNUTLS_E_BASE64_UNEXPECTED_HEADER_ERROR error code.
4214 ** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
4217 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
4218 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
4219 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
4220 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
4221 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
4222 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
4223 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
4224 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
4226 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
4228 ** API and ABI modifications:
4229 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.
4230 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.
4231 GNUTLS_E_BASE64_UNEXPECTED_HEADER_ERROR: ADD.
4233 * Version 2.1.5 (released 2007-11-01)
4235 ** Fix PKCS#3 parameter export problem.
4237 ** Improve certtool queries, they now print the default value.
4241 ** Update gnulib files.
4243 ** API and ABI modifications:
4244 No changes since last version.
4246 * Version 2.1.4 (released 2007-10-27)
4248 ** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
4249 version 1 certificates.
4251 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
4252 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
4254 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
4256 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
4257 priorities preferences.
4259 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4260 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4263 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4264 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
4266 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
4267 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.
4269 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.5.
4271 ** Update gnulib files.
4273 ** API and ABI modifications:

4308 * Version 2.1.3 (released 2007-10-17)
4310 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4311 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4312 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4313 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4314 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4315 lead the way with our own actions.
4317 ** Re-enabled the 256 bit ciphers in the default priorities.
4319 ** Corrected bugs in openpgp key verification using a keyring (both in
4322 ** API and ABI modifications:
4323 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver: REMOVED
4324 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t,

4331 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: REMOVED.
4332 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4333 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4335 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
4337 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
4338 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
4340 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
4342 ** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
4344 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4346 ** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.
4348 ** Added capability to set a callback after the client hello is received
4349 by the server in order to adjust parameters before the handshake.
4351 ** SRP was corrected to adhere to the latest draft (published soon as RFC)
4353 ** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting
4356 ** Updated the DN parser which now prints wrongly decoded values as hex
4359 ** certtool: Add option --quick-random.
4360 For generating low security test credentials.

4374 GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME: DEPRECATED
4375 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME: DEPRECATED
4377 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
4379 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
4380 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
4381 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
4382 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
4383 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.
4385 ** Properly document in the NEWS file the API change in the last release.
4387 ** API and ABI modifications:
4388 No changes since last version.
4390 * Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
4392 ** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
4393 The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
4394 by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
4395 yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.
4398 ** Example code: Fix compilation flaw under MinGW.
4400 ** API and ABI modifications:
4401 gnutls_oprfi_callback_func: ADD, new typedef function prototype.
4402 gnutls_oprfi_enable_client: ADD, new function.
4403 gnutls_oprfi_enable_server: ADD, new function.
4405 * Version 2.0.4 (released 2007-11-16)
4407 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
4409 ** API and ABI modifications:
4410 No changes since last version.
4412 * Version 2.0.3 (released 2007-11-10)
4414 ** This version backports several fixes from the 2.1.x branch.
4416 ** Fixed PKCS #3 parameter export.
4418 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4419 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4422 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4423 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).

4428 ** API and ABI modifications:
4429 gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode: ADDED
4430 gnutls_record_disable_padding: ADDED
4432 * Version 2.0.2 (released 2007-10-17)
4434 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4435 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4436 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4437 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4438 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4439 lead the way with our own actions.
4441 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4443 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
4445 ** API and ABI modifications:
4446 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4447 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4449 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
4451 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
4452 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
4453 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
4455 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
4456 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
4457 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
4458 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
4460 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
4462 ** API and ABI modifications:
4463 No changes since last version.
4465 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
4467 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
4469 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
4471 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
4473 ** API and ABI modifications:
4474 No changes since last version.
4476 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
4478 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
4479 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
4480 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
4482 ** Update gnulib files.
4483 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
4484 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
4485 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
4486 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
4487 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
4488 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
4492 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
4494 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
4496 ** API and ABI modifications:
4497 No changes since last version.
4499 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
4501 ** Install images for the info manual.
4502 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
4503 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
4504 discussions on the approach chosen.
4506 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
4507 Patch extracted from
4508 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
4510 ** Fix warnings during build.
4511 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4513 ** API and ABI modifications:
4514 No changes since last version.
4516 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
4518 ** New functions to perform external signing.
4519 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
4520 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
4521 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
4522 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
4523 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
4524 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
4525 comments and testing.
4527 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
4528 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
4529 the new external signing callback interface.
4531 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
4532 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
4533 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
4534 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
4535 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
4536 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
4537 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
4538 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
4541 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
4542 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
4543 let's not enable it just yet.
4545 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
4546 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
4547 names without the '_t' suffix.
4549 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
4550 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4552 ** More documentation fixes.
4553 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4554 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4556 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
4557 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
4558 <po@danielnylander.se>.
4560 ** API and ABI modifications:
4561 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
4562 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
4563 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
4564 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
4565 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
4566 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
4567 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
4569 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
4571 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
4572 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
4573 suitable certificate was found.
4575 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
4576 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
4578 ** Documentation fixes.
4579 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4580 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4582 ** Update gnulib files.
4584 ** API and ABI modifications:
4585 No changes since last version.
4587 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
4589 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
4591 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
4592 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
4593 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
4594 libguile.h header installed.
4596 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
4597 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
4598 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
4599 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
4600 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
4601 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
4602 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
4604 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
4606 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.

4683 No changes since last version.
4685 * Version 1.7.11 (released 2007-05-26)
4687 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
4688 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4690 ** API and ABI modifications:
4691 No changes since last version.
4693 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
4695 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
4696 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
4698 ** Update of gnulib files.
4700 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
4701 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
4703 ** API and ABI modifications:
4704 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
4705 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
4707 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
4709 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
4710 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
4712 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
4713 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
4714 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
4715 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
4716 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
4717 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
4719 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
4721 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
4723 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
4724 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
4725 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
4726 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
4727 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
4728 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
4729 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
4731 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
4733 ** API and ABI modifications:
4734 No changes since last version.
4736 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
4738 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
4739 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
4741 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
4742 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
4744 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
4745 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
4746 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
4747 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
4748 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
4749 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
4750 been approved by the IETF.
4752 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
4753 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
4754 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
4756 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
4758 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
4759 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
4761 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
4762 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
4763 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
4765 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
4766 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
4767 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
4768 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
4769 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
4771 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
4773 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
4775 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
4776 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
4777 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
4778 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
4781 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
4782 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
4784 ** API and ABI modifications:
4785 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
4786 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
4787 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,
4788 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer: ADD.
4789 gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava: ADD.
4790 gnutls_cipher_list: ADD.
4791 gnutls_mac_list: ADD.
4792 gnutls_compression_list: ADD.
4793 gnutls_protocol_list: ADD.
4794 gnutls_certificate_type_list: ADD.
4795 gnutls_kx_list: ADD.
4796 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
4798 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
4800 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
4801 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
4802 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
4804 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4805 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
4807 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
4808 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
4809 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
4810 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
4812 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
4813 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
4815 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
4816 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
4818 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
4819 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
4821 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
4822 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
4824 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
4825 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
4826 string in the provided buffer.
4828 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
4829 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
4830 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
4832 ** API and ABI modifications:
4833 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
4834 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
4835 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
4836 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
4837 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
4838 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
4839 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
4840 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
4841 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
4842 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
4843 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
4844 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
4845 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
4846 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
4848 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
4850 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
4851 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
4852 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
4853 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
4854 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
4855 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
4856 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
4857 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
4859 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
4860 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
4861 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
4863 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
4864 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
4865 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
4866 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
4868 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
4869 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
4870 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
4871 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
4873 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
4874 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
4876 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
4877 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
4880 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
4881 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
4883 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
4884 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
4885 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
4889 ** API and ABI modifications:
4890 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
4891 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
4892 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
4893 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
4894 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
4895 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
4896 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
4897 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
4899 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
4901 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
4904 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
4906 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4907 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
4909 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
4910 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
4911 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
4913 ** Update of gnulib files.
4915 ** API and ABI modifications:
4916 No changes since last version.
4918 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
4920 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
4921 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
4922 testing all new hashes.
4924 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
4926 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
4928 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
4930 ** Update of gnulib files.
4932 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
4933 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
4934 missing unless the template specify it.
4936 ** API and ABI modifications:
4939 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
4942 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
4943 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
4944 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
4945 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
4947 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
4949 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
4950 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
4951 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
4952 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
4953 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
4954 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
4955 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
4956 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
4957 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
4959 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
4960 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
4962 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
4964 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
4966 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
4967 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
4968 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
4970 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
4971 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
4972 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
4975 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
4977 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
4978 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
4980 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
4981 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
4983 ** Update of gnulib files.
4985 ** API and ABI modifications:
4986 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
4987 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
4988 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
4990 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
4992 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
4994 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
4995 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
4996 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
4998 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
4999 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
5000 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
5001 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
5002 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
5003 will continue to be supported.
5005 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
5006 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
5007 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
5008 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
5010 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
5011 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
5012 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
5013 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5015 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
5016 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
5017 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
5018 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
5019 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
5020 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
5022 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
5023 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5025 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
5026 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
5027 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
5029 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
5030 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
5032 ** Update of gnulib files.
5034 ** API and ABI modifications:
5035 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
5036 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
5037 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5038 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5040 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5042 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
5043 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
5044 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
5045 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5047 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
5048 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5050 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5051 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5052 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5054 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5055 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
5056 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5058 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5059 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5060 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5061 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5062 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5065 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
5066 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5068 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
5069 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
5070 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
5072 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
5073 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
5075 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
5077 ** Update of gnulib files.
5079 ** API and ABI modifications:
5080 No changes since last version.
5082 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
5084 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
5085 The details is that the protocol priority set by
5086 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
5087 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
5089 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
5090 The client has been successfully tested against
5091 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
5093 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
5095 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
5097 ** Update of gnulib files.
5099 ** API and ABI modifications:
5100 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
5102 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
5104 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5105 This fixes the following error message:
5106 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5107 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5109 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
5111 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5112 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
5113 from the 1.7.x branch, see
5114 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
5116 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
5117 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
5118 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
5119 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
5121 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
5122 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
5123 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5125 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
5126 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
5127 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
5128 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
5129 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
5131 ** API and ABI modifications:
5132 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5133 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5135 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
5137 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5138 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5139 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5140 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5141 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5142 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5143 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5145 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
5146 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
5147 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
5148 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
5149 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
5150 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
5152 ** Updated translations.
5154 ** API and ABI modifications:
5155 No changes since last version.
5157 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5159 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5160 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5161 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5163 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5164 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5166 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5167 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5168 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5169 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5170 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5173 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5174 This fixes the following error message:
5175 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5176 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5178 ** API and ABI modifications:
5179 No changes since last version.
5181 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
5183 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
5184 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
5186 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
5187 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
5188 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
5190 *** Windows is a supported platform.
5191 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
5192 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
5193 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
5194 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
5196 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
5197 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
5198 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
5199 1.5.4 for more information.
5201 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
5203 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
5205 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
5206 This was forgotten in the last release.
5208 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
5209 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5211 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
5213 ** Update of gnulib files.
5215 ** API and ABI modifications:
5216 No changes since last version.
5218 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
5220 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
5221 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
5222 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
5223 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
5224 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
5225 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
5226 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
5227 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
5228 of these functions. It is recommended to use
5229 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
5230 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
5231 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
5232 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5234 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
5235 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
5237 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
5238 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
5239 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
5241 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
5242 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
5243 important fix is to change the return value of
5244 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
5245 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
5246 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
5247 compatible with 'int').
5249 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
5250 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
5251 ** instead of the lowest.
5252 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
5254 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
5255 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
5256 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
5257 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
5259 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
5260 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
5261 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
5263 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
5265 ** Update of gnulib files.
5267 ** API and ABI modifications:
5268 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
5269 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
5271 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
5273 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
5274 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
5275 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
5276 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
5277 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
5279 ** Re-factor self tests.
5281 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
5283 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
5285 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
5287 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
5288 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
5289 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
5290 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
5293 ** API and ABI modifications:
5294 No changes since last version.
5296 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
5298 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
5299 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
5300 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
5301 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
5302 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
5303 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
5304 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5306 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
5307 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
5308 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"
5309 <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
5311 ** Add version script for the GnuTLS C++ library.
5312 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5314 ** Fix the C++ compiler detection logic.
5315 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5317 ** Update of gnulib files.
5319 ** API and ABI modifications:
5320 No changes since last version.
5322 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
5324 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5325 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5326 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5327 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
5328 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5329 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
5330 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka
5331 OIWA <y.oiwa@aist.go.jp>.
5333 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
5334 up to date information.
5336 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
5338 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
5339 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
5340 indicate that the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
5341 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
5343 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
5344 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5346 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
5347 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
5348 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
5349 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5351 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
5352 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
5353 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
5354 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
5356 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
5358 ** API and ABI modifications:
5359 No changes since last version.
5361 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
5363 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
5365 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5367 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
5368 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
5369 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
5370 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
5371 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
5372 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
5373 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
5374 create *.def files, which are installed.
5376 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
5377 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
5378 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
5381 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".
5382 You may unconditionally disable it with --disable-cxx. See
5383 includes/gnutls/gnutlsxx.h and lib/gnutlsxx.cpp for the
5386 ** Made command line tool '--version' behave according to GNU Standards.
5387 This enables 'make distcheck' to succeed.
5389 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
5391 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5392 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
5394 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
5395 See http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html regardging
5396 GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 for more up to date information. Reported by
5397 satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.
5399 ** API and ABI modifications:
5400 No changes since last version.
5402 * Version 1.4.5 (released 2006-11-06)
5404 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
5405 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
5406 ** instead of the lowest.
5407 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.

5410 Reported by Adam Langley" <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
5412 ** API and ABI modifications:
5413 No changes since last version.
5415 * Version 1.4.4 (released 2006-09-12)
5417 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
5418 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
5419 ** verification logic flaw.
5420 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
5421 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
5424 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
5425 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
5426 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
5427 oracle in typical recommended situations.
5429 ** API and ABI modifications:
5430 No changes since last version.
5432 * Version 1.4.3 (released 2006-09-08)
5434 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5435 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5436 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5437 empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be used to
5438 alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5439 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is

5455 ** API and ABI modifications:
5456 No changes since last version.
5458 * Version 1.4.2 (released 2006-08-12)
5460 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
5461 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
5462 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
5463 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
5464 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
5465 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
5466 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
5467 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
5468 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
5469 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.
5471 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
5473 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
5475 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
5476 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
5478 ** API and ABI modifications:
5479 No changes since last version.
5481 * Version 1.4.1 (released 2006-06-14)
5483 ** Replaced inactive ifdefs to enable openpgp support in test programs.
5485 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5487 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.
5489 ** Build fixes of the manual.
5491 ** Added Swedish translation.
5493 ** API and ABI modifications:
5494 No changes since last version.
5496 * Version 1.4.0 (released 2006-05-15)
5498 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
5500 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
5502 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
5503 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
5504 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
5507 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
5509 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
5511 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
5513 ** API and ABI modifications:
5514 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
5515 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
5516 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
5517 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
5519 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
5521 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
5523 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
5524 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
5525 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
5526 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
5527 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
5528 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
5529 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
5530 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
5531 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
5533 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
5534 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
5536 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
5538 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
5539 The include copy has been updated too.
5541 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.
5543 ** API and ABI modifications:
5544 No changes since last version.
5546 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
5548 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
5549 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
5550 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
5551 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
5554 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
5555 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
5556 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
5557 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
5559 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
5560 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
5561 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
5563 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
5564 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
5566 ** API and ABI modifications:
5567 No changes since last version.
5569 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
5571 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
5572 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
5573 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5575 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
5576 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
5577 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
5578 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
5580 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
5582 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
5584 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
5585 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
5586 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
5587 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
5588 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
5589 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
5590 roughly at the same time.
5592 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
5594 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
5596 ** API and ABI modifications:
5597 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
5598 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
5600 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
5601 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
5603 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
5605 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
5606 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
5607 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
5608 GNU General Public License.
5610 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
5611 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
5612 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
5613 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
5614 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5616 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
5617 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
5618 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
5619 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
5620 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
5621 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5623 ** Internal type cleanups.
5624 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
5625 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
5626 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
5627 replaced by unsigned.

5690 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
5692 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
5693 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
5695 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
5696 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
5698 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
5699 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5701 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
5702 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
5703 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
5705 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
5706 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
5707 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
5708 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
5709 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
5710 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
5711 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
5712 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
5715 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
5716 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
5717 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
5719 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
5720 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
5721 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
5723 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
5724 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
5727 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
5728 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
5729 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
5732 ** API and ABI modifications:
5733 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
5734 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
5736 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
5739 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
5740 gnutls_session_get_data2
5742 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
5743 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
5745 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
5747 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
5748 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
5749 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
5750 test this functionality.
5752 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
5754 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
5756 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
5758 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.
5760 ** Fixes for Tru64 UNIX 4.0D that lack MAP_FAILED, from Albert Chin.
5762 ** Remove trailing comma in enums, for IBM C v6, from Albert Chin.
5764 ** Make sure config.h is included first in a few files, from Albert Chin.

5772 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t key exchange type: GNUTLS_KX_PSK
5774 New gnutls_credentials_type_t credential type:
5777 New credential types:
5778 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t
5779 gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t
5781 New functions to allocate PSK credentials:

5807 Use size_t instead of int for output size parameter:
5808 gnutls_srp_base64_encode
5809 gnutls_srp_base64_decode
5811 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
5812 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
5813 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
5814 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
5816 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
5817 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
5818 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
5819 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
5820 - API and ABI modifications:
5821 No changes since last version.
5823 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
5824 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
5825 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
5826 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
5827 The included version has been updated too.
5828 - Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
5829 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
5830 - Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
5831 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5832 - Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
5833 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
5834 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
5835 - Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
5836 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
5837 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
5838 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
5840 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
5841 - Documentation was updated and improved.
5842 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
5843 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
5844 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
5845 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
5846 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
5847 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
5848 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
5849 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
5850 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
5851 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
5852 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
5853 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
5854 to align with the send(2) API.
5855 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
5856 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
5857 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
5858 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
5859 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
5860 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
5861 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
5862 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
5863 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
5864 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
5865 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
5866 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
5867 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
5868 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
5869 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
5870 - API and ABI modifications:
5871 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
5872 This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
5873 so we don't break backwards compatibility.
5874 GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
5875 GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
5876 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
5877 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
5879 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
5880 gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
5881 gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
5882 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
5883 used when broken signature algorithms
5884 is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
5885 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
5886 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
5887 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
5888 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
5889 version number, can be used for feature existence
5892 * Version 1.2.8 (2005-10-07)
5893 - Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
5894 - Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
5895 examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
5896 from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
5897 - If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
5898 tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
5899 validation fails. Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
5900 after certificate validation failures. Inspired from discussion
5901 with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.
5902 - The test for socklen_t has been moved to gnulib.

5921 X.509 serial numbers.
5922 - Fixed build problems in getpass on uClibc and Mingw32 platforms.
5923 - Fixed compile warning regarding socklen_t on Mingw32, reported by
5924 Martin Lambers <marlam@marlam.de>.

5940 - Will now test for liblzo functionality in liblzo2 too, reported by
5941 Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
5942 - Minilibtasn1 is now 0.2.14 (no code changes).
5943 - Some code changes to avoid GTK-DOC warnings.

5960 - Corrected some bugs that could affect 64 bit systems.
5961 - Some corrections in the header files to include the prototype
5962 of memmem properly (affected 64 bit systems). Report and patch
5963 by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>.
5964 - Introduced the --fix-key option to certtool, which can be used to
5965 regenerate the (optional) parameters in a private key. It should
5966 be used together with --key-info.
5967 - Corrected a bug in certificate chain verification that could lead
5968 to marking a trusted chain as non trusted, if the last certificate in
5969 the chain was a self signed one.
5970 - Gnulib portability files were updated.
5971 - License were updated to reflect new FSF address.

6000 are not in the included list.
6001 - Added warning to certtool when MD5 is being used for digital
6003 - Optimizations ("-O2 -finline-functions") are not enabled by default,
6004 instead the standard autoconf defaults are used. Use `./configure
6005 CFLAGS="-O2 -finline-functions"' to get the old optimizations.
6006 - Added the option --get-dh-params to certtool, in order to get the
6007 parameters included in the library primes and generators.
6008 - Improved the semantics of GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT, to
6009 allow only trusted Version 1 CAs and introduced

6011 - Nettle self tests now build properly, reported by Pierre
6012 <pierre42d@9online.fr>.
6013 - Eliminated some memory leaks in DHE and RSA-EXPORT cipher suites.
6014 Reported by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>.
6015 - If the library has been compiled with features disabled, a warning is
6016 issued during the compilation of any program.
6017 - API and ABI modifications:

6041 - The functions gnutls_x509_crl_get_issuer_dn, gnutls_x509_crq_get_dn,
6042 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn, gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn, and
6043 gnutls_x509_rdn_get now set *sizeof_buf to the buffer length that is
6044 required, instead of the string length. That is, the value has been
6045 incremented by 1 to account for the terminating zero. Reported by
6046 Martin Lambers <marlam@web.de>.
6047 - Debug output shouldn't crash on platforms that doesn't handle NULL
6048 printf %s values. Reported by Michael.Ringe@aachen.utimaco.de.
6049 - Sync included copy of libtasn1 with version 0.2.13.
