106 response corresponds to the given certificate.
108 ** libgnutls: In client side gnutls_init() enables the session ticket and
109 OCSP certificate status request extensions by default. The flag
110 GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS can be used to prevent that.
112 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the OpenPGP code. The generating code
113 is fully RFC6091 compliant and RFC5081 support is only supported in client
116 ** libgnutls-dane: Added. It is a library to provide DANE with DNSSEC
117 certificate verification.
119 ** gnutls-cli: Added --dane option to enable DANE certificate verification.

157 * Version 3.1.2 (released 2012-09-26)
159 ** libgnutls: Fixed bug in gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_system_trust()
160 and gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_mem() that prevented the loading
161 of certificates in the windows platform.
163 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug in OpenPGP subpacket encoding.
165 ** libgnutls: Added support for DTLS/TLS heartbeats by Olga Smolenchuk.
166 (the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
168 ** libgnutls: Added X.509 certificate verification flag
169 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_UNSORTED_CHAIN. This flag allows the verification
170 of unsorted certificate chains and is enabled by default for
171 TLS certificate verification (if gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags()
172 does not override it).
174 ** libgnutls: Prints warning on certificates that contain keys of
175 an insecure level. If the %COMPAT priority flag is not specified
176 the TLS connection fails.
178 ** libgnutls: Correctly restore gnutls_record_recv() in DTLS mode
179 if interrupted during the retrasmition of handshake data.
181 ** libgnutls: Better mingw32 support (patch by LRN).
183 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT keyword, if specified, will tolerate
184 key usage violation errors (they are far too common to ignore).
186 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_STATELESS_COMPRESSION flag to gnutls_init(),
187 which provides a tool to counter compression-related attacks where
188 parts of the data are controlled by the attacker _and_ are placed in
189 separate records (use with care - do not use compression if not sure).
191 ** libgnutls: Depends on libtasn1 2.14 or later.
193 ** certtool: Prints the number of bits of the public key algorithm
194 parameter in a private key.
196 ** API and ABI modifications:
197 gnutls_x509_privkey_get_pk_algorithm2: Added
198 gnutls_heartbeat_ping: Added

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

612 ** libgnutls: Added OCSP support.
613 There is a new header file gnutls/ocsp.h and a set of new functions
614 under the gnutls_ocsp namespace. Currently the functionality provided
615 is to parse and extract information from OCSP requests/responses, to
616 generate OCSP requests and to verify OCSP responses. See the manual
617 for more information. Run ./configure with --disable-ocsp to build
618 GnuTLS without OCSP support.
620 This work was sponsored by Smoothwall <http://smoothwall.net/>.
622 ** ocsptool: Added new command line tool.
623 The tool can parse OCSP request/responses, generate OCSP requests and

1175 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2()
1176 to set a callback to retrieve a certificate. The certificate is
1177 received in a format that requires no processing from gnutls thus
1178 it is suitable when performance is required.
1180 ** API and ABI modifications:
1181 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: REMOVED
1182 gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2: ADDED
1184 * Version 2.99.0 (released 2011-04-09)
1186 ** libgnutls: Added Datagram TLS support.
1188 ** libgnutls: Uses a single configure file and a single
1189 gnulib library to save space.
1191 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes.
1193 ** libgnutls: gnutls_transport_set_lowat() is no more.
1195 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
1196 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
1198 ** libgnutls: Corrected signature generation and verification
1199 in the Certificate Verify message when in TLS 1.2. Reported
1202 ** libgnutlsxx: The C++ interface returns exception on
1203 every error and not only on fatal ones. This allows easier
1206 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue in DHE-PSK ciphersuites that ignored
1209 ** libgnutls: SRP and PSK are no longer set on the default priorities.
1210 They have to be explicitly set.
1212 ** libgnutls: During handshake message verification using DSS
1213 use the hash algorithm required by it.
1215 ** libgnutls: gnutls_recv() return GNUTLS_E_PREMATURE_TERMINATION
1216 on unexpected EOF, instead of GNUTLS_E_UNEXPECTED_PACKET_LENGTH.
1218 ** libgnutls: Added GCM mode (interoperates with tls.secg.org)
1220 ** libgnutls-extra: Inner application extension was removed.
1221 It was never standardized nor published as an RFC.
1223 ** libgnutls: Added new certificate verification functions, that
1224 can provide more details and are more efficient. Check
1225 gnutls_x509_trust_list_*.
1227 ** certtool: Uses the new certificate verification functions for
1230 ** certtool: Added new certificate verification functionality
1231 using the --verify option. Combined with --load-ca-certificate
1232 it can verify a certificate chain against a list of certificates.
1234 ** Several files unnecessarily included <gcrypt.h>; this has been fixed.

1313 No changes since last version.
1318 * Version 2.12.0 (released 2011-03-24)
1320 ** certtool: Warns on generation of DSA keys of over 1024 bits, about
1321 the incompatibility with TLS other than 1.2.
1323 ** libgnutls: Modified signature algorithm selection in client
1324 certificate request, to avoid failures in DSA certificates.
1326 ** libgnutls: Instead of failing with internal error, return
1327 GNUTLS_E_INCOMPAT_DSA_KEY_WITH_TLS_PROTOCOL if an incompatible DSA
1328 key with the negotiated protocol is encountered.
1330 ** libgnutls: Bug fixes in the RSA ciphersuite behavior with openpgp keys.
1332 ** libgnutls: Force state update when fork is detected in the nettle
1335 ** libgnutls: modified gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp() to use the preferred
1336 subkey instead of setting explicitly one.
1338 ** libgnutls: Corrected default behavior in record version of Client Hellos.
1340 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
1341 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
1343 ** API and ABI modifications:
1344 gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp: MODIFIED
1349 ** libgnutls: The deprecated gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash() was
1350 replaced by gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2().
1352 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
1353 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
1354 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
1355 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
1358 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
1359 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
1361 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
1363 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
1364 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),
1365 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash(), gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data(), were
1366 deprecated for gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(),
1367 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(), gnutls_privkey_sign_hash(),
1368 gnutls_privkey_sign_data(), gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash()
1369 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() respectively.
1371 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
1374 ** libgnutls: Added convenience functions gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2()
1375 and gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2().
1377 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
1378 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.

1407 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
1409 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
1410 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
1413 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
1414 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
1416 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
1418 ** API and ABI modifications:
1419 No changes since last version.
1421 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
1423 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
1424 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
1425 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
1427 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
1428 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
1430 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
1431 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
1434 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
1436 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
1437 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
1438 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
1440 ** API and ABI modifications:
1441 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
1442 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
1444 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
1446 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
1447 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
1448 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
1449 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
1452 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
1454 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
1456 ** build: Update gnulib files.
1458 ** i18n: Update translations.
1460 ** tests: Add self tests gendh.c. Speed up Guile self checks.
1462 ** API and ABI modifications:
1463 gnutls_session_channel_binding: New function.
1464 gnutls_channel_binding_t: New enumeration.
1465 GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE: New gnutls_channel_binding_t enum member.
1466 GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE: New error code.
1468 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
1470 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
1471 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
1472 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
1473 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
1475 ** API and ABI modifications:
1476 No changes since last version.
1478 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
1480 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
1481 and session tickets support.
1483 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
1485 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
1486 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
1487 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
1488 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
1489 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
1492 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
1493 introduced with the new nettle code.
1495 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
1497 ** API and ABI modifications:
1498 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
1499 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
1501 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
1503 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
1504 to use the libgcrypt back end.
1506 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
1507 backend crypto library.
1509 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
1511 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
1513 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
1514 tabs are being skipped.
1516 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
1518 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
1521 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
1522 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
1523 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
1525 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
1526 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
1527 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
1528 and 3072 keys only).
1530 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1531 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1532 is unable to decode the key.
1534 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
1536 ** API and ABI modifications:
1537 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1538 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
1540 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
1542 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
1543 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
1544 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
1547 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
1548 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
1549 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
1550 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
1551 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
1552 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
1553 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
1555 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
1559 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
1561 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
1562 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
1563 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
1565 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
1568 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
1569 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
1571 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
1572 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
1574 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
1575 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
1576 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
1577 the OPRFI extension was removed.
1579 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
1581 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
1582 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
1583 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
1585 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
1587 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
1588 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
1589 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
1591 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
1592 works even when resuming a session.
1594 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
1595 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
1596 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
1597 PKCS #11 private keys.
1599 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
1600 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
1602 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
1603 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
1605 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
1606 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
1607 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
1609 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1610 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
1611 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1613 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
1616 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
1617 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
1618 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
1619 connections using a url such as:
1620 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

1701 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
1703 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
1706 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
1708 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
1709 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
1710 is unable to decode the key.
1712 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
1713 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
1715 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
1716 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
1718 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
1719 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
1720 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
1722 ** API and ABI modifications:
1723 No changes since last version.
1725 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
1727 ** API and ABI modifications:
1728 No changes since last version.
1730 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
1732 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
1733 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
1736 ** API and ABI modifications:
1737 No changes since last version.
1739 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
1741 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
1742 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
1743 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
1744 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
1745 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
1747 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
1748 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
1750 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
1752 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
1754 ** API and ABI modifications:
1755 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
1756 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
1758 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
1760 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
1761 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
1764 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
1765 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
1766 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
1768 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
1769 Solves the issue discussed in:
1770 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
1771 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
1772 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
1773 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
1774 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
1775 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
1776 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
1777 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
1779 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
1781 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
1784 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
1785 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
1786 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
1787 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
1789 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
1790 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
1791 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
1792 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
1793 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
1794 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
1795 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
1796 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
1798 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
1799 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
1800 end of the handshake.
1802 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
1803 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
1805 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
1806 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
1807 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
1808 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
1809 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
1810 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
1811 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
1812 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
1813 now different than previous gnutls releases.
1814 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
1816 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
1818 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
1820 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

1883 No changes since last version.
1885 * Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
1887 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
1888 Reported by Tang Tong.
1890 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
1891 ** extension and certificate verify field.
1892 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
1893 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
1894 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
1895 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
1898 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
1899 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
1901 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
1903 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
1904 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
1905 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
1907 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
1908 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem

1911 ** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
1912 To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
1914 ** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
1916 ** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.
1917 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in

1953 No changes since last version.
1955 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
1957 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
1958 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
1959 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
1960 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad
1961 Hards <bradh@frogmouth.net>.
1963 ** API and ABI modifications:

1971 The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
1972 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
1973 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
1976 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
1977 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
1978 OpenPGP hostname comparison.
1980 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
1981 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
1982 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
1984 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
1985 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
1986 error, to prevent this from happening again.
1988 ** API and ABI modifications:
1989 No changes since last version.
1991 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
1993 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
1994 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
1995 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
1996 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
1998 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

2003 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server: ADDED.
2005 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
2007 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2008 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2009 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2010 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2011 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2012 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2013 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2014 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2015 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2016 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2017 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2018 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2019 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2020 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
2022 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
2023 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
2024 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
2026 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
2028 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
2029 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
2030 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2031 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
2033 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
2034 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
2035 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
2036 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2037 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
2039 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
2040 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
2041 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
2042 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
2043 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.
2045 ** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
2046 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
2047 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
2048 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2049 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.
2051 ** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
2052 Report and patch by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
2053 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3671>
2055 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
2057 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
2058 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
2059 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2060 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
2061 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
2062 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.
2064 ** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.
2066 ** tests: Improved test vectors in self-test pkcs12_s2k.
2068 ** tests: Added new self-test dn2 to detect off-by-one size error.
2070 ** tests: Fix failure in "chainverify" because a certificate have expired.

2073 No changes since last version.
2075 * Version 2.9.1 (released 2009-06-08)
2077 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in gnutls_global_init after earlier init/deinit cycle.
2078 Forwarded by Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net> from
2079 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/272388>.

2097 * Version 2.8.6 (released 2010-03-15)
2099 ** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
2100 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2101 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
2103 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
2104 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
2105 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
2107 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
2108 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
2109 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
2110 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
2111 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
2112 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.

2170 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
2172 ** API and ABI modifications:
2173 No changes since last version.
2175 * Version 2.8.3 (released 2009-08-13)
2177 ** libgnutls: Fix patch for NUL in CN/SAN in last release.
2178 Code intended to be removed would lead to an read-out-bound error in
2179 some situations. Reported by Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>. A CVE
2180 code have been allocated for the vulnerability: [CVE-2009-2730].
2182 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
2183 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
2184 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
2186 ** libgnutls-extra, libgnutls-openssl: Fix MinGW cross-compiling build error.
2188 ** tests: Made self-test mini-eagain take less time.
2192 ** API and ABI modifications:
2193 No changes since last version.
2195 * Version 2.8.2 (released 2009-08-10)
2197 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2198 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2199 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2200 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2201 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2202 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2203 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2204 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2205 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2206 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2207 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2208 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2209 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2210 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4].

2217 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
2218 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
2219 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse

2224 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
2225 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was

2235 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
2236 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
2237 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
2238 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by

2371 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
2372 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
2375 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
2376 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
2382 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
2383 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
2384 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
2385 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
2386 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
2387 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
2389 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
2390 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
2391 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
2392 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
2395 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
2396 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
2397 also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected

2405 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
2407 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
2408 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
2410 The following symbols have been added to the library:

2566 * Version 2.7.8 (released 2009-05-03)
2568 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2569 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2571 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2572 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
2573 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
2574 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
2575 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
2576 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
2577 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
2578 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2579 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
2580 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
2582 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
2583 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
2584 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
2585 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
2586 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
2587 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
2588 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
2589 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
2592 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
2593 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
2594 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
2595 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
2596 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
2597 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
2600 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
2601 This should have been done in the last release.
2603 ** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
2604 Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2605 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3476>.

2608 We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
2609 directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
2610 'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command

2629 <http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3467>.
2631 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.8.
2632 GnuTLS is also internally ready to be used with libtasn1 v2.0.
2634 ** doc: Fix build failure of errcodes/printlist.
2635 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org> in
2636 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3435>.
2638 ** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
2639 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
2640 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
2642 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.
2643 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>
2645 ** API and ABI modifications:
2646 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
2647 gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
2649 * Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
2651 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
2652 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
2654 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
2656 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
2657 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
2658 be used for chain verification.
2660 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
2661 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
2663 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
2664 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
2665 information. This avoids code duplication.
2667 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
2668 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
2669 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
2672 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
2673 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
2674 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2676 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
2678 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
2680 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
2682 ** API and ABI modifications:
2683 No changes since last version.
2685 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
2687 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
2688 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
2689 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
2690 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
2691 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
2692 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
2693 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
2694 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
2695 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
2696 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
2697 <deengert@anl.gov> in
2698 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2700 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
2701 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
2703 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
2704 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
2705 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
2707 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
2708 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
2709 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
2710 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
2711 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
2712 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
2714 ** API and ABI modifications:
2715 No changes since last version.
2717 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
2719 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
2720 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
2721 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
2722 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
2723 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
2724 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
2725 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
2726 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
2728 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
2729 Patch from David MarÃn Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
2730 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
2732 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
2734 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
2735 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
2736 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
2737 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
2738 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
2739 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
2741 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
2743 ** API and ABI modifications:
2744 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
2746 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
2748 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
2749 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
2750 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by
2751 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
2752 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
2754 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
2755 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
2756 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
2757 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
2758 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
2759 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
2760 real change in behaviour.
2762 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
2763 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
2764 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
2766 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
2768 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
2769 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
2771 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
2773 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
2775 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
2777 ** API and ABI modifications:
2778 No changes since last version.
2780 * Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
2782 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
2783 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
2784 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
2785 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
2786 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
2788 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
2789 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
2791 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
2792 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
2793 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2794 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
2795 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
2796 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
2797 work but are deprecated.
2799 ** certtool: allow setting arbitrary key purpose object identifiers.
2801 ** libgnutls: Fix detection of C99 macros, to make debug logging work again.
2803 ** libgnutls: Add missing prototype for gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.

2848 ** certtool: print a PKCS #8 key even if it is not encrypted.
2850 ** Old libgnutls.m4 and libgnutls-config scripts removed.
2851 Please use pkg-config instead.
2853 ** Configuration system modified.
2854 There is now a configure script in lib/ and libextra/ as well, because
2855 gnulib works better with a config.h per gnulib directory.

2918 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>. See the advisory
2919 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-1] [CVE-2009-1415]
2921 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
2922 Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
2923 DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
2924 for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
2926 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
2927 Reported by Romain Francoise <romain@orebokech.com>. Before the
2928 library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
2929 was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
2930 applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
2931 proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
2932 to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
2933 time (as reported by the time function) is within the
2934 activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
2937 This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
2938 turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
2939 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
2940 gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
2941 condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
2942 add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
2943 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new

2968 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
2970 ** GnuTLS no longer uses the libtasn1-config script to find libtasn1.
2971 Libtasn1 0.3.4 or later is required. This is to align with the
2972 upcoming libtasn1 v2.0 release that doesn't have a libtasn1-script.

3090 ** libgnutls-openssl: fix out of bounds access.
3091 Problem in X509_get_subject_name and X509_get_issuer_name. Tiny patch
3092 from Thomas Viehmann <tv@beamnet.de>.
3094 ** certtool: Use inet_pton for parsing IPv6 addresses.
3096 ** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
3098 *** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3100 *** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
3102 *** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3104 *** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3105 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3106 such as IP addresses.
3108 *** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3109 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
3111 *** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
3112 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
3113 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id.
3115 *** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
3116 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
3118 *** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3119 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3121 *** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3122 *** from a private key.
3123 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw.
3125 *** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3126 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3127 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3129 *** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3131 *** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3132 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3133 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3134 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3135 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3138 *** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3139 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3140 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
3143 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
3144 No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
3145 fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
3147 A new header file <gnutls/crypto.h> have been added. It contains
3148 definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
3149 All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
3151 We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
3152 does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
3153 and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
3155 The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
3159 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2
3160 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2
3161 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2
3162 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2
3163 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2
3164 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2
3165 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2
3166 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2
3167 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2
3172 gnutls_session_set_finished_function
3174 gnutls_sign_get_name
3176 gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits:
3177 gnutls_strerror_name
3178 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw
3179 gnutls_x509_crt_set_crl_dist_points2
3180 gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name
3182 The following functions have been added to libgnutls-extra:
3184 gnutls_register_md5_handler
3186 ** API and ABI modifications:
3187 No changes since last version.
3189 * Version 2.5.9 (released 2008-09-29)
3191 ** libgnutls: Fix several memory leaks.
3192 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3194 ** libgnutls: Fix buffer overrun in gnutls_x509_crt_list_import.
3195 Report and patch by Jonathan Manktelow.
3197 ** libgnutls: crypto.h gnutls_pk_params_st changes allocation strategy.
3198 The parameters are now allocated in the structure itself.
3200 ** doc: Texinfo HTML manual uses a stylesheet to improve readability.
3202 ** tests: Scripts now use EXEEXT properly.
3203 Modern libtool doesn't create wrapper script, so the self tests need
3204 to invoke certtool.exe under MinGW32+Wine.
3206 ** Uses autoconf 2.63, automake 1.10.1, libtool 2.2.6a.
3207 Automake warnings are now also enabled.
3209 ** API and ABI modifications:
3210 gnutls_pk_params_st: MODIFIED
3212 * Version 2.5.8 (released 2008-09-21)
3214 ** certtool: updated so it can add several subject alternative names using
3217 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
3218 either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
3219 such as IP addresses.
3221 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in hashing code when using non-libgcrypt handlers.
3223 ** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
3224 The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits. Tiny patch by Kevin Quick
3225 <quick@sparq.org> in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106454>.
3227 ** libgnutls: Check for overflows in gnutls_calloc and gnutls_secure_calloc.
3228 Also fix overflows in calls to those functions. Reported by Werner
3229 Koch <wk@gnupg.org>.
3231 ** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
3232 The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
3233 FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
3236 ** Opencdk: Add calls to gnutls_assert to ease debugging.
3240 ** API and ABI modifications:
3241 gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits: ADDED

3243 gnutls_x509_crt_set_crl_dist_points2: ADDED
3244 gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name: ADDED
3246 * Version 2.5.7 (released 2008-09-16)
3248 ** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
3249 The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
3251 ** libgnutls: Don't crash when gnutls_credentials_set is called twice.
3253 ** libgnutls: Fix libgnutls shared library version.
3254 It wasn't properly incremented after adding symbols in the last
3257 ** manual: Now mention supported public key and public key signing algorithms.
3259 ** tests/openssl: initialize gnutls before use.
3261 ** tests/setcredcrash: New test to catch regressions of gnutls_credentials_set.
3263 ** GTK-DOC manual: mention new symbols in 2.6.x. Mention crypto.h functions.
3265 ** API and ABI modifications:
3266 gnutls_sign_get_name: ADDED
3267 gnutls_pk_get_name: ADDED
3269 * Version 2.5.6 (released 2008-09-08)
3271 ** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
3272 The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
3273 gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id. Suggested by Sam
3274 Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3276 ** libgnutls: Refactor and clean up some code.
3278 ** libgnutls: Fix compile error with Sun CC.
3280 ** gnutls-cli: Improve --list output to include public key and signature algs.

3286 Thanks to James Westby <jw+debian@jameswestby.net>.
3288 ** tests: New self-test pgps2kgnu to test parsing of encrypted secrets.
3289 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3291 ** API and ABI modifications:
3292 gnutls_pk_list: ADDED
3293 gnutls_pk_get_id: ADDED
3294 gnutls_sign_list: ADDED
3295 gnutls_sign_get_id: ADDED
3297 * Version 2.5.5 (released 2008-08-29)
3299 ** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
3300 The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
3302 ** libgnutls: Fix include paths so that building with internal libtasn1 works.
3303 Reported by "jth.net ApS" <info@jth.net>.
3305 ** libgnutls: Fix segmentation fault when generating private keys.
3306 Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3308 ** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
3309 The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
3310 it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
3311 old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
3312 to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
3313 by Christian Grothoff <christian@grothoff.org>.
3315 ** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
3316 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3318 ** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
3320 ** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.
3322 ** Add French translation, thanks to Nicolas Provost.
3324 ** API and ABI modifications:
3325 gnutls_strerror_name: ADDED
3327 * Version 2.5.4 (released 2008-08-19)
3329 ** Fix secure memory initialization of libgcrypt.
3330 Reported by Joe Orton <joe@manyfish.co.uk> in
3331 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2992>.
3334 Reference to NIST SP 800-57 in the manual on key size recommendations.
3335 Added 'Since:' tags to new APIs for gtk-doc.
3337 ** API and ABI modifications:
3338 No changes since last version.
3340 * Version 2.5.3 (released 2008-08-14)
3342 ** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
3343 ** from a private key.
3344 The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
3345 discussion with "Zach C." <fxchip@gmail.com>.
3347 ** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
3348 The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
3349 it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
3351 ** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
3352 Reported in <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106453>.
3354 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
3355 The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
3356 names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
3357 likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
3358 the namespace violation.
3360 ** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
3362 ** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
3364 ** API and ABI modifications:
3365 gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw: ADDED
3366 gnutls_session_set_finished_function: ADDED
3367 gnutls_finished_callback_func: ADDED
3368 GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE: ADDED
3369 GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE: ADDED
3370 TLS_MASTER_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3371 TLS_RANDOM_SIZE: DEPRECATED
3373 * Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
3375 ** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
3376 The prime and generator was swapped.
3378 ** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
3379 The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
3380 for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
3381 types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
3382 classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
3385 ** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
3386 This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
3387 The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
3388 libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong
3391 ** API and ABI modifications:
3392 gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
3393 gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
3394 gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED
3395 gnutls_ext_register: ADDED
3397 * Version 2.5.1 (released 2008-07-02)
3401 ** API and ABI modifications:
3402 No changes since last version.
3404 * Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
3406 ** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.
3408 ** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
3409 The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
3412 ** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
3414 ** Update gnulib and translations.
3415 The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
3416 and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
3417 implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later
3420 ** API and ABI modifications:
3421 gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2: ADDED.
3422 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2: ADDED.
3423 gnutls_crypto_digest_register2: ADDED.
3424 gnutls_crypto_mac_register2: ADDED.
3425 gnutls_crypto_pk_register2: ADDED.
3426 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register2: ADDED.
3427 gnutls_crypto_single_cipher_register2: ADDED.
3428 gnutls_crypto_single_digest_register2: ADDED.
3429 gnutls_crypto_single_mac_register2: ADDED.
3431 * Version 2.4.3 (released 2009-02-06)
3433 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
3434 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
3435 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
3436 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
3437 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
3438 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
3439 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
3440 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
3441 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
3442 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
3443 <deengert@anl.gov> in
3444 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3446 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
3447 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
3448 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
3449 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
3450 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
3451 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3453 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
3454 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
3455 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
3456 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
3457 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
3458 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
3459 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
3460 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
3462 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
3463 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
3464 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by
3465 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3466 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
3468 ** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
3469 The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
3470 problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
3471 certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes <meskes@debian.org> in
3472 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=505279>.
3474 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
3475 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
3476 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
3477 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
3478 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
3480 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
3481 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>

3516 ** libgnutls: Fix local crash in gnutls_handshake. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-2]
3517 If the gnutls_handshake function is called for a normal session, which
3518 can happen for re-handshakes, the library would crash because it tried
3519 to hash some data using a libgcrypt handle that had been deallocated.

3540 ** API and ABI modifications:
3541 No changes since last version.
3543 * Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
3545 ** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3547 *** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
3549 *** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
3550 *** derivation and PSK identity hints.
3551 The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
3552 draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
3554 *** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3555 This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
3556 The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3558 *** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
3560 *** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
3561 It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
3562 CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
3564 *** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
3565 The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
3566 but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
3569 *** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
3571 *** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
3572 Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
3574 *** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
3576 *** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
3577 *** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
3578 Thanks to Joe Orton.
3580 *** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
3582 *** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
3583 The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
3584 reflect, so the following name change has been made:
3587 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
3588 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
3589 GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
3591 The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
3593 *** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
3594 *** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
3595 A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
3598 *** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
3600 *** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
3601 We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
3603 *** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
3605 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
3606 All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
3607 libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
3608 Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
3609 libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
3610 version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
3611 All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
3612 possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
3613 and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
3614 the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
3615 the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.

3688 from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
3690 The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
3691 is currently not used.
3693 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
3694 Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor <dkg-debian.org@fifthhorseman.net>.
3696 ** API and ABI modifications:
3697 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3698 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
3700 * Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
3702 ** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
3703 It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.
3705 ** API and ABI modifications:
3706 No changes since last version.
3708 * Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
3710 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
3711 An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
3714 ** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
3715 Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
3717 ** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
3718 Reported by Sam Varshavchik <mrsam@courier-mta.com>.
3720 ** API and ABI modifications:
3721 No changes since last version.
3723 * Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
3725 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
3727 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
3729 ** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
3731 ** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
3732 The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
3733 printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
3734 follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
3735 '--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
3738 ** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
3739 Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
3741 ** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
3742 None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
3743 or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
3744 set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
3747 ** API and ABI modifications:
3748 No changes since last version.
3750 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
3752 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
3754 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
3755 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
3757 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
3758 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3760 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
3761 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
3762 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
3763 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
3764 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
3766 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
3767 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
3768 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
3771 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
3772 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
3774 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
3776 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
3777 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
3778 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
3780 *** New PSK example client and server.
3781 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
3783 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
3784 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
3785 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
3786 <l@lwithers.me.uk> in
3787 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
3789 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
3790 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
3792 ** API and ABI modifications:
3793 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
3794 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
3795 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
3796 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
3798 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
3800 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
3801 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
3802 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
3803 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
3804 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3805 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
3807 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
3808 Fixes builds under Windows.
3810 ** Make umask a requirement.
3811 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
3814 ** Update gnulib files.
3815 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
3816 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
3818 ** API and ABI modifications:
3819 No changes since last version.
3821 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
3823 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
3824 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
3826 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
3827 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
3828 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
3829 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
3830 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
3831 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3833 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
3834 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
3835 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3836 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3837 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
3838 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
3840 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
3841 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
3842 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3843 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3844 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
3846 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
3847 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
3848 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
3849 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
3850 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
3852 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
3853 Villanueva Che (discussion at
3854 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
3856 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
3858 ** API and ABI modifications:
3859 No changes since last version.
3861 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
3863 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
3864 Based on report and tiny patches from
3865 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
3866 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
3868 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
3870 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
3871 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
3873 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
3874 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
3875 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
3876 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
3877 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
3879 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
3880 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
3881 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
3882 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
3884 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
3886 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
3887 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
3888 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
3890 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
3892 ** Update of gnulib files.
3894 ** API and ABI modifications:
3895 No changes since last version.
3897 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
3899 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
3900 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
3901 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
3902 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
3903 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
3904 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
3906 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
3907 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
3908 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
3911 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
3912 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
3913 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
3915 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
3916 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
3918 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
3919 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
3920 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
3922 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
3924 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
3926 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
3927 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
3928 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
3930 ** Update of gnulib files.
3932 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
3934 ** API and ABI modifications:
3935 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
3937 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
3939 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
3941 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
3942 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
3943 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
3945 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
3947 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
3948 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
3949 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
3950 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
3951 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
3954 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
3956 ** API and ABI modifications:
3957 No changes since last version.
3959 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
3961 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
3962 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
3963 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
3964 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
3966 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
3967 Based on HPUX build hints in
3968 <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>.
3970 ** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
3971 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3972 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3974 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
3975 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
3976 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
3977 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
3978 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3979 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
3981 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
3982 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
3983 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
3985 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
3987 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
3988 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
3989 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
3990 maintain an external library (help welcome).
3992 ** API and ABI modifications:
3993 No changes since last version.
3995 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
3997 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
3998 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
3999 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1145>.
4001 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
4002 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
4004 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4006 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
4007 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
4009 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
4010 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
4011 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
4013 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
4015 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
4016 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
4018 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
4020 ** Update gnulib files.
4022 ** API and ABI modifications:
4023 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
4024 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
4025 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4026 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4027 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
4028 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
4029 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
4030 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
4031 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
4033 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
4035 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
4036 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
4038 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
4039 override the included ones.
4041 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
4043 ** API and ABI modifications:
4044 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
4045 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
4046 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
4047 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
4048 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
4049 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
4050 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
4052 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
4054 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
4055 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
4057 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
4058 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
4059 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
4060 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
4061 not documented until now.)
4063 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
4064 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
4065 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
4066 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
4067 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
4068 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
4069 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
4070 to trigger the problem. See also
4071 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
4073 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
4074 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
4076 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
4078 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
4080 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4081 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4082 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4084 ** Updated translations.
4086 ** Update gnulib files.
4088 ** API and ABI modifications:
4089 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
4090 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
4092 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
4094 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
4096 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
4098 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
4100 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.
4101 See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-02/msg00043.html>.
4103 ** Internal header files cleanup.
4105 ** API and ABI modifications:
4106 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
4107 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
4108 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
4109 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
4111 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
4113 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
4114 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
4117 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4118 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4120 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
4122 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4125 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4126 for checks without limitation.
4128 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4129 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4130 strings and return the proper size.
4132 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
4133 This collects all problems related to record padding with
4134 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
4136 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
4137 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to
4138 draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-00.txt.
4140 ** certtool can print information on OpenPGP certificates and keys.
4142 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_import/init/deinit() to access raw DER DN.
4145 ** Added gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and other functions to
4146 export elements from the certificate credentials structure. Based on
4147 suggestion from Joe Orton.
4150 Clarify that srp_base64 is not the same as normal base64.
4152 ** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.

4200 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
4202 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
4203 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
4204 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
4205 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
4206 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
4207 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
4209 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
4210 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
4212 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4213 in a callback friendly way.
4215 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4217 ** Updated translations.
4219 ** Update gnulib files.
4221 ** API and ABI modifications:
4222 No changes since last version.
4224 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
4226 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
4227 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
4228 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
4229 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
4230 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
4231 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
4233 ** API and ABI modifications:
4234 No changes since last version.
4236 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
4238 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
4239 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
4240 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
4241 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
4242 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
4243 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
4245 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
4246 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
4247 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4248 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4249 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
4250 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
4252 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
4253 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
4254 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4255 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4256 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
4258 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
4259 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
4260 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
4261 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
4262 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
4264 ** API and ABI modifications:
4265 No changes since last version.
4267 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
4269 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
4270 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
4271 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
4272 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
4273 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
4274 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
4276 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
4277 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
4278 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
4280 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
4282 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
4283 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
4284 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.

4287 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
4288 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
4290 ** Make Camellia encryption work.
4291 Reported by Yoshisato YANAGISAWA <yanagisawa@csg.is.titech.ac.jp> in
4292 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2746>.
4294 ** API and ABI modifications:
4295 No changes since last version.
4297 * Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
4299 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
4300 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
4302 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
4305 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
4306 for checks without limitation.
4308 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
4309 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
4310 strings and return the proper size.
4312 ** API and ABI modifications:
4313 No changes since last version.
4315 * Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
4317 ** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
4318 Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com>, see
4319 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202269>.
4321 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
4322 in a callback friendly way.
4324 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
4326 ** API and ABI modifications:
4327 No changes since last version.
4329 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
4331 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
4333 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
4334 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
4335 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
4336 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
4338 ** Translation updates.
4339 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
4341 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
4343 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
4345 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
4347 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
4349 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
4351 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
4353 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
4355 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
4356 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
4357 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
4358 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
4359 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
4360 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
4363 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
4364 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
4366 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
4367 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
4370 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
4372 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
4373 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
4374 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
4375 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
4376 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
4377 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
4378 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
4380 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
4381 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
4384 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
4385 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
4386 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
4387 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
4389 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
4390 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
4391 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
4392 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
4393 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
4394 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
4396 *** XML related changes
4397 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
4398 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
4399 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
4400 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
4401 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
4402 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
4403 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
4404 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
4406 *** TLS Authorization related changes
4407 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
4408 only stub functions that returned an error code:
4410 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
4411 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
4412 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
4413 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
4415 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
4416 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
4417 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
4418 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
4420 *** SRP related changes
4421 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
4422 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
4423 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
4424 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
4427 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
4428 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
4429 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
4430 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
4431 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
4432 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
4433 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
4434 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
4436 *** OpenPGP related changes
4437 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
4438 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
4439 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
4441 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
4442 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
4443 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
4444 The following have been removed:
4446 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
4447 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
4448 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
4449 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
4450 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
4451 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
4452 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
4454 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
4455 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
4456 (binary or base64). The functions are:
4457 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
4458 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
4459 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
4460 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
4462 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
4463 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
4464 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
4467 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
4468 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
4469 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
4470 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
4471 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
4472 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
4473 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
4474 gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import
4475 gnutls_openpgp_key_export gnutls_openpgp_crt_export
4476 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_key_usage gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_usage
4477 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_fingerprint gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_fingerprint
4478 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_algorithm
4479 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_name gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_name
4480 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_version gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_version
4481 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
4482 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
4483 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id
4484 gnutls_openpgp_key_check_hostname gnutls_openpgp_crt_check_hostname
4485 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
4487 ** API and ABI modifications:
4488 No changes since last version.
4490 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
4492 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
4493 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
4494 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
4496 ** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
4498 ** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
4499 at gnutls_priority_set().

4509 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
4511 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
4512 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
4513 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
4515 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
4516 the priority string.
4518 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
4519 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
4521 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.

4535 gnutls_set_default_priority: UNDEPRECATED
4536 gnutls_set_default_priority_export: UNDEPRECATED
4538 ** Undocumented API and ABI modifications earlier in the 2.1.x series:
4539 GNUTLS_CIPHER_UNKNOWN: ADD.

4563 ** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
4566 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
4567 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
4568 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
4569 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
4570 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
4571 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
4572 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
4573 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
4575 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
4577 ** API and ABI modifications:
4578 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.

4595 * Version 2.1.4 (released 2007-10-27)
4597 ** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
4598 version 1 certificates.
4600 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
4601 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
4603 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
4605 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
4606 priorities preferences.
4608 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4609 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4612 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4613 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
4615 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
4616 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.
4618 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.5.

4659 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4660 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4661 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4662 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4663 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4664 lead the way with our own actions.
4666 ** Re-enabled the 256 bit ciphers in the default priorities.

4681 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4682 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4684 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
4686 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
4687 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
4689 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
4691 ** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
4693 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4695 ** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.
4697 ** Added capability to set a callback after the client hello is received
4698 by the server in order to adjust parameters before the handshake.
4700 ** SRP was corrected to adhere to the latest draft (published soon as RFC)
4702 ** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting

4726 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
4728 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
4729 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
4730 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
4731 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
4732 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.
4734 ** Properly document in the NEWS file the API change in the last release.
4736 ** API and ABI modifications:
4737 No changes since last version.
4739 * Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
4741 ** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
4742 The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
4743 by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
4744 yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.
4747 ** Example code: Fix compilation flaw under MinGW.

4750 gnutls_oprfi_callback_func: ADD, new typedef function prototype.
4751 gnutls_oprfi_enable_client: ADD, new function.
4752 gnutls_oprfi_enable_server: ADD, new function.
4754 * Version 2.0.4 (released 2007-11-16)
4756 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
4758 ** API and ABI modifications:
4759 No changes since last version.
4761 * Version 2.0.3 (released 2007-11-10)
4763 ** This version backports several fixes from the 2.1.x branch.
4765 ** Fixed PKCS #3 parameter export.
4767 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
4768 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
4771 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
4772 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).

4777 ** API and ABI modifications:
4778 gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode: ADDED
4779 gnutls_record_disable_padding: ADDED
4781 * Version 2.0.2 (released 2007-10-17)
4783 ** TLS authorization support removed.
4784 This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
4785 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
4786 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
4787 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
4788 lead the way with our own actions.
4790 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
4792 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
4794 ** API and ABI modifications:
4795 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
4796 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
4798 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
4800 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
4801 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
4802 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
4804 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
4805 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
4806 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
4807 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
4809 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
4811 ** API and ABI modifications:
4812 No changes since last version.
4814 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
4816 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
4818 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
4820 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
4822 ** API and ABI modifications:
4823 No changes since last version.
4825 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
4827 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
4828 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
4829 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
4831 ** Update gnulib files.
4832 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
4833 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
4834 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
4835 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
4836 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
4837 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
4841 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
4843 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
4845 ** API and ABI modifications:
4846 No changes since last version.
4848 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
4850 ** Install images for the info manual.
4851 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
4852 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
4853 discussions on the approach chosen.
4855 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
4856 Patch extracted from
4857 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
4859 ** Fix warnings during build.
4860 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
4862 ** API and ABI modifications:
4863 No changes since last version.
4865 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
4867 ** New functions to perform external signing.
4868 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
4869 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
4870 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
4871 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
4872 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
4873 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
4874 comments and testing.
4876 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
4877 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
4878 the new external signing callback interface.
4880 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
4881 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
4882 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
4883 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
4884 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
4885 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
4886 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
4887 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
4890 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
4891 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
4892 let's not enable it just yet.
4894 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
4895 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
4896 names without the '_t' suffix.
4898 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
4899 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4901 ** More documentation fixes.
4902 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4903 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4905 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
4906 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
4907 <po@danielnylander.se>.
4909 ** API and ABI modifications:
4910 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
4911 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
4912 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
4913 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
4914 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
4915 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
4916 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
4918 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
4920 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
4921 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
4922 suitable certificate was found.
4924 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
4925 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
4927 ** Documentation fixes.
4928 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
4929 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.

4933 ** API and ABI modifications:
4934 No changes since last version.
4936 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
4938 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
4940 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
4941 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
4942 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
4943 libguile.h header installed.
4945 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
4946 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
4947 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
4948 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
4949 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
4950 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
4951 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
4953 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
4955 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.
4956 Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4958 ** Add Malay message translations.

4966 ** Don't enable Guile bindings unless we have Guile 1.8 or later.
4967 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
4969 ** Fix memory leak during DSA signature verification.

5006 * Version 1.7.12 (released 2007-06-08)
5008 ** Guile bindings for GnuTLS have been included.
5009 Contributed by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>. There is a
5010 new chapter 'Guile Bindings' in the manual.
5012 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.

5018 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
5019 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5022 Reported by Dennis Vshivkov <walrus@amur.ru>, see
5023 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333050>. Added
5024 self-test tests/parse_ca.c to test regressions.
5026 ** Fix build failures related to missing images in manual.
5027 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.

5032 No changes since last version.
5034 * Version 1.7.11 (released 2007-05-26)
5036 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
5037 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5039 ** API and ABI modifications:
5040 No changes since last version.
5042 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
5044 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5045 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
5047 ** Update of gnulib files.
5049 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
5050 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
5052 ** API and ABI modifications:
5053 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5054 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5056 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
5058 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
5059 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
5061 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
5062 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
5063 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
5064 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
5065 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
5066 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
5068 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
5070 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
5072 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5073 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5074 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5075 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5076 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5077 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5078 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5080 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5082 ** API and ABI modifications:
5083 No changes since last version.
5085 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
5087 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
5088 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
5090 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
5091 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
5093 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
5094 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
5095 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
5096 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
5097 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
5098 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
5099 been approved by the IETF.
5101 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
5102 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
5103 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
5105 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
5107 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
5108 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5110 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
5111 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
5112 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
5114 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
5115 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
5116 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
5117 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
5118 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
5120 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
5122 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
5124 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
5125 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
5126 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
5127 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
5130 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
5131 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
5133 ** API and ABI modifications:
5134 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
5135 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
5136 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,

5145 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
5147 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
5149 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
5150 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
5151 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
5153 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5154 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
5156 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5157 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
5158 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
5159 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
5161 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
5162 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
5164 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
5165 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
5167 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
5168 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
5170 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
5171 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
5173 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
5174 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
5175 string in the provided buffer.
5177 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
5178 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
5179 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
5181 ** API and ABI modifications:
5182 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
5183 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5184 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
5185 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
5186 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
5187 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
5188 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
5189 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
5190 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
5191 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
5192 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
5193 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5194 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
5195 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
5197 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
5199 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
5200 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
5201 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
5202 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
5203 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
5204 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
5205 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
5206 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
5208 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
5209 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
5210 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
5212 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
5213 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
5214 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
5215 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
5217 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
5218 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
5219 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
5220 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
5222 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
5223 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
5225 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
5226 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
5229 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
5230 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
5232 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
5233 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
5234 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
5238 ** API and ABI modifications:
5239 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
5240 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
5241 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
5242 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
5243 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
5244 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
5245 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5246 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
5248 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
5250 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
5253 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
5255 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
5256 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
5258 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
5259 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
5260 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
5262 ** Update of gnulib files.
5264 ** API and ABI modifications:
5265 No changes since last version.
5267 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
5269 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
5270 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
5271 testing all new hashes.
5273 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
5275 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
5277 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
5279 ** Update of gnulib files.
5281 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
5282 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
5283 missing unless the template specify it.
5285 ** API and ABI modifications:
5288 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
5291 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
5292 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
5293 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
5294 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
5296 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
5298 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
5299 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
5300 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
5301 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
5302 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
5303 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
5304 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
5305 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
5306 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
5308 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
5309 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
5311 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
5313 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
5315 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
5316 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
5317 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
5319 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
5320 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
5321 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
5324 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
5326 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
5327 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
5329 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
5330 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5332 ** Update of gnulib files.
5334 ** API and ABI modifications:
5335 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
5336 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
5337 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
5339 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
5341 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
5343 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
5344 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
5345 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5347 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
5348 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
5349 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
5350 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
5351 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
5352 will continue to be supported.
5354 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
5355 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
5356 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
5357 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
5359 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
5360 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
5361 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
5362 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5364 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
5365 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
5366 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
5367 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
5368 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
5369 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
5371 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
5372 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5374 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
5375 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
5376 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
5378 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
5379 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
5381 ** Update of gnulib files.
5383 ** API and ABI modifications:
5384 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
5385 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
5386 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5387 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
5389 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5391 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
5392 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
5393 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
5394 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5396 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
5397 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5399 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5400 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5401 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5403 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5404 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
5405 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5407 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5408 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5409 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5410 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5411 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5414 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
5415 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
5417 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
5418 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
5419 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
5421 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
5422 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
5424 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
5426 ** Update of gnulib files.
5428 ** API and ABI modifications:
5429 No changes since last version.
5431 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
5433 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
5434 The details is that the protocol priority set by
5435 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
5436 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
5438 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
5439 The client has been successfully tested against
5440 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
5442 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
5444 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
5446 ** Update of gnulib files.
5448 ** API and ABI modifications:
5449 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
5451 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
5453 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5454 This fixes the following error message:
5455 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5456 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5458 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
5460 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
5461 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
5462 from the 1.7.x branch, see
5463 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
5465 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
5466 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
5467 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
5468 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
5470 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
5471 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
5472 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
5474 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
5475 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
5476 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
5477 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
5478 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
5480 ** API and ABI modifications:
5481 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
5482 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
5484 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
5486 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
5487 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
5488 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
5489 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
5490 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
5491 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
5492 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
5494 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
5495 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
5496 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
5497 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
5498 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
5499 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
5501 ** Updated translations.
5503 ** API and ABI modifications:
5504 No changes since last version.
5506 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
5508 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
5509 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
5510 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5512 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
5513 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
5515 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
5516 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
5517 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
5518 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
5519 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
5522 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
5523 This fixes the following error message:
5524 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
5525 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
5527 ** API and ABI modifications:
5528 No changes since last version.
5530 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
5532 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
5533 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
5535 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
5536 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
5537 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
5539 *** Windows is a supported platform.
5540 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
5541 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
5542 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
5543 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
5545 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
5546 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
5547 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
5548 1.5.4 for more information.
5550 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
5552 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
5554 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
5555 This was forgotten in the last release.
5557 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
5558 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5560 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
5562 ** Update of gnulib files.
5564 ** API and ABI modifications:
5565 No changes since last version.
5567 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
5569 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
5570 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
5571 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
5572 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
5573 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
5574 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
5575 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
5576 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
5577 of these functions. It is recommended to use
5578 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
5579 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
5580 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
5581 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
5583 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
5584 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
5586 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
5587 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
5588 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
5590 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
5591 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
5592 important fix is to change the return value of
5593 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
5594 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
5595 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
5596 compatible with 'int').
5598 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
5599 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
5600 ** instead of the lowest.
5601 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
5603 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
5604 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
5605 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
5606 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
5608 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
5609 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
5610 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
5612 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
5614 ** Update of gnulib files.
5616 ** API and ABI modifications:
5617 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
5618 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
5620 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
5622 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
5623 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
5624 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
5625 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
5626 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
5628 ** Re-factor self tests.
5630 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
5632 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
5634 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
5636 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
5637 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
5638 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
5639 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
5642 ** API and ABI modifications:
5643 No changes since last version.
5645 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
5647 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
5648 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
5649 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
5650 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
5651 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
5652 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
5653 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5655 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
5656 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
5657 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"
5658 <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
5660 ** Add version script for the GnuTLS C++ library.
5661 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5663 ** Fix the C++ compiler detection logic.
5664 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
5666 ** Update of gnulib files.
5668 ** API and ABI modifications:
5669 No changes since last version.
5671 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
5673 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
5674 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
5675 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
5676 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
5677 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
5678 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
5679 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka

5682 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
5683 up to date information.
5685 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
5687 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
5688 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
5689 indicate that the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
5690 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
5692 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
5693 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
5695 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
5696 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
5697 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
5698 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
5700 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
5701 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
5702 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
5703 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
5705 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
5707 ** API and ABI modifications:
5708 No changes since last version.
5710 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
5712 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
5714 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5716 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
5717 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
5718 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
5719 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
5720 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
5721 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
5722 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
5723 create *.def files, which are installed.
5725 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
5726 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
5727 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
5730 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".
5731 You may unconditionally disable it with --disable-cxx. See

5766 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
5767 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
5768 ** verification logic flaw.
5769 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
5770 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
5773 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
5774 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
5775 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
5776 oracle in typical recommended situations.

5809 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
5810 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
5811 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
5812 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
5813 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
5814 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
5815 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
5816 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
5817 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
5818 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.

5834 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
5836 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.

5847 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
5849 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
5851 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
5852 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
5853 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
5856 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
5858 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
5860 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
5862 ** API and ABI modifications:
5863 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
5864 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
5865 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
5866 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
5868 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
5870 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
5872 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
5873 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
5874 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
5875 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
5876 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
5877 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
5878 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
5879 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
5880 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
5882 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
5883 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
5885 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
5887 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
5888 The include copy has been updated too.
5890 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.

5893 No changes since last version.
5895 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
5897 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
5898 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
5899 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
5900 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
5903 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
5904 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
5905 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
5906 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
5908 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
5909 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
5910 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
5912 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
5913 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
5915 ** API and ABI modifications:
5916 No changes since last version.
5918 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
5920 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
5921 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
5922 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5924 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
5925 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
5926 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
5927 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
5929 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
5931 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
5933 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
5934 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
5935 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
5936 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
5937 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
5938 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
5939 roughly at the same time.
5941 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
5943 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
5945 ** API and ABI modifications:
5946 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
5947 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
5949 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
5950 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
5952 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
5954 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
5955 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
5956 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
5957 GNU General Public License.
5959 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
5960 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
5961 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
5962 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
5963 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5965 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
5966 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
5967 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
5968 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
5969 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
5970 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
5972 ** Internal type cleanups.
5973 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
5974 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
5975 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
5976 replaced by unsigned.
5978 ** API and ABI modifications:
5979 New functions to invoke the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF):
5983 New functions to retrieve the session's client and server random values:
5984 gnutls_session_get_server_random
5985 gnutls_session_get_client_random
5987 New function, to perform TLS/IA handshake:
5990 New function to decide whether to do a TLS/IA handshake:
5991 gnutls_ia_handshake_p
5993 New functions to allocate a TLS/IA credential:
5994 gnutls_ia_allocate_client_credentials
5995 gnutls_ia_free_client_credentials
5996 gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials
5997 gnutls_ia_free_server_credentials

6002 gnutls_ia_get_client_avp_ptr
6003 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_function
6004 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_ptr
6005 gnutls_ia_get_server_avp_ptr
6007 New functions, to toggle TLS/IA application phases:
6008 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase
6010 New function to mix session keys with inner secret:
6011 gnutls_ia_permute_inner_secret
6013 Low-level API (used internally by gnutls_ia_handshake):
6014 gnutls_ia_endphase_send
6018 New functions that can be used after successful TLS/IA negotiation:
6019 gnutls_ia_generate_challenge
6020 gnutls_ia_extract_inner_secret
6022 Enum type with TLS/IA modes:
6025 Enum type with TLS/IA packet types:
6028 Enum values for TLS/IA alerts:
6029 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_FAILURE
6030 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_VERIFICATION
6032 New error codes, to signal when an application phase has finished:
6033 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_IPHF_RECEIVED
6034 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_FPHF_RECEIVED
6036 New error code to signal TLS/IA verify failure:
6037 GNUTLS_E_IA_VERIFY_FAILED
6039 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
6041 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
6042 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
6044 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
6045 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
6047 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
6048 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
6050 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
6051 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
6052 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6054 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
6055 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
6056 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
6057 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
6058 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
6059 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
6060 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
6061 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
6064 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
6065 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
6066 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
6068 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
6069 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
6070 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
6072 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
6073 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
6076 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
6077 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
6078 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
6081 ** API and ABI modifications:
6082 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
6083 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
6085 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
6088 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
6089 gnutls_session_get_data2
6091 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
6092 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
6094 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
6096 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
6097 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
6098 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
6099 test this functionality.
6101 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
6103 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
6105 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
6107 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.
6109 ** Fixes for Tru64 UNIX 4.0D that lack MAP_FAILED, from Albert Chin.
6111 ** Remove trailing comma in enums, for IBM C v6, from Albert Chin.
6113 ** Make sure config.h is included first in a few files, from Albert Chin.
6115 ** Don't use C++ comments ("//") as they are invalid, from Albert Chin.
6117 ** Don't install SRP programs and man pages if --disable-srp-authentication,

6123 New gnutls_credentials_type_t credential type:
6126 New credential types:
6127 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t

6158 gnutls_srp_base64_decode
6160 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
6161 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
6162 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
6163 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
6165 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
6166 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
6167 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
6168 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
6169 - API and ABI modifications:
6170 No changes since last version.
6172 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
6173 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
6174 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
6175 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
6176 The included version has been updated too.

6189 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
6190 - Documentation was updated and improved.
6191 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
6192 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
6193 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
6194 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
6195 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
6196 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
6197 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
6198 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
6199 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
6200 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
6201 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
6202 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
6203 to align with the send(2) API.
6204 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
6205 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
6206 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
6207 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
6208 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
6209 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
6210 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
6211 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
6212 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
6213 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
6214 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
6215 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
6216 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
6217 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
6218 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
6219 - API and ABI modifications:
6220 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
6221 This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
6222 so we don't break backwards compatibility.
6223 GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
6224 GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
6225 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
6226 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
6228 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
6229 gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
6230 gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
6231 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
6232 used when broken signature algorithms
6233 is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
6234 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
6235 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
6236 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
6237 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
6238 version number, can be used for feature existence
6241 * Version 1.2.8 (2005-10-07)
6242 - Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
6243 - Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
6244 examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
6245 from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
6246 - If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
6247 tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
6248 validation fails. Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
6249 after certificate validation failures. Inspired from discussion
6250 with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.
6251 - The test for socklen_t has been moved to gnulib.

6354 CFLAGS="-O2 -finline-functions"' to get the old optimizations.
6355 - Added the option --get-dh-params to certtool, in order to get the
6356 parameters included in the library primes and generators.

6392 gnutls_x509_rdn_get now set *sizeof_buf to the buffer length that is
6393 required, instead of the string length. That is, the value has been
6394 incremented by 1 to account for the terminating zero. Reported by
6395 Martin Lambers <marlam@web.de>.
