6 * Version 2.3.13 (unreleased)
8 ** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
10 ** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
12 ** tests/: New non-forking TLS handshake test.
14 ** API and ABI modifications:
15 No changes since last version.
17 * Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
19 ** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
21 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
22 The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
24 *** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
25 The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
27 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
28 In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
29 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
30 message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
31 using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
33 *** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
34 The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
35 derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
38 *** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
39 Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
41 *** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
43 *** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
44 The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
45 print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
47 *** New PSK example client and server.
48 See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
50 ** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
51 The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
52 when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
54 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2825>.
56 ** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
57 Patch from Robert Millan <rmh@aybabtu.com>.
59 ** API and ABI modifications:
60 RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
61 gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
62 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
63 gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
65 * Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
67 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
68 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
69 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
70 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
71 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
72 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
74 ** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
75 Fixes builds under Windows.
77 ** Make umask a requirement.
78 We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
81 ** Update gnulib files.
82 Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
83 MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
85 ** API and ABI modifications:
86 No changes since last version.
88 * Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
90 ** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
91 Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
93 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
94 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
95 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
96 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
97 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
98 <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
100 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
101 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
102 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
103 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
104 cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
105 allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
107 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
108 *** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
109 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
110 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
111 triggers a null-pointer dereference.
113 *** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
114 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
115 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
116 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
117 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
119 ** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
120 Villanueva Che (discussion at
121 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2007-02/msg00017.html>)
123 ** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
125 ** API and ABI modifications:
126 No changes since last version.
128 * Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
130 ** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
131 Based on report and tiny patches from
132 <jared.jennings.ctr@eglin.af.mil>, see
133 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106342>.
135 ** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
137 ** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
138 Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
140 ** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
141 Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
142 Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
143 <nebuchadnezzar@asgardr.info> see
144 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=364287>.
146 ** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
147 Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
148 Reported by martin f krafft <madduck@debian.org> see
149 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=373169>.
151 ** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
153 ** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
154 The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
155 appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
157 ** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
159 ** Update of gnulib files.
161 ** API and ABI modifications:
162 No changes since last version.
164 * Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
166 ** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
167 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
168 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
169 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
170 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
171 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
173 ** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
174 Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
175 GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
178 ** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
179 We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
180 enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
182 ** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
183 Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
185 ** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
186 The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
187 DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
189 ** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
191 ** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
193 ** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
194 Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
195 vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
197 ** Update of gnulib files.
199 ** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
201 ** API and ABI modifications:
202 GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
204 * Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
206 ** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
208 ** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
209 Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" <marc@mclemente.net> in Debian BTS #466477.
210 This is similar to <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
212 ** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
214 ** Build fixes for MinGW.
215 Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
216 with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
217 X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
218 characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> for
221 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
223 ** API and ABI modifications:
224 No changes since last version.
226 * Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
228 ** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
229 ** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
230 Based on report from "John Brooks" <aspecialj@gmail.com> in
231 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1154>.
233 ** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
234 Based on HPUX build hints in
235 <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>.
237 ** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
238 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
239 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
241 ** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
242 Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
243 to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
244 because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
245 Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
246 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1170>.
248 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
249 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
250 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
252 ** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
254 ** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
255 GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
256 GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
257 maintain an external library (help welcome).
259 ** API and ABI modifications:
260 No changes since last version.
262 * Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
264 ** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
265 Reported by Massimo Gaspari <massimo.gaspari@alice.it> in
266 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1145>.
268 ** Document how to generate CRLs.
269 Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" <rgerhards@gmail.com>.
271 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
273 ** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
274 Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
276 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
277 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
278 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
280 ** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
282 ** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
283 Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
285 ** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
287 ** Update gnulib files.
289 ** API and ABI modifications:
290 gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED
291 gnutls_rnd_level_t: ADDED
292 GNUTLS_RND_KEY: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
293 GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
294 GNUTLS_RND_NONCE: ADDED, gnutls_rnd_level_t member
295 gnutls_crypto_rnd_st: ADDED
296 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224: ADDED
297 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA224: ADDED
298 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey: MODIFIED
300 * Version 2.3.4 (released 2008-03-19)
302 ** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
303 They weren't renamed in the public header file.
305 ** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
306 override the included ones.
308 ** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
310 ** API and ABI modifications:
311 gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
312 gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
313 gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED
314 gnutls_crypto_cipher_register: ADDED
315 gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
316 gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
317 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
319 * Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
321 ** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
322 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
324 ** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
325 We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
326 default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
327 work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
328 not documented until now.)
330 ** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
331 This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
332 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
333 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
334 from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
335 certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
336 dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
337 to trigger the problem. See also
338 <http://blog.josefsson.org/2008/02/27/real-world-performance-tuning-with-callgrind/>.
340 ** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
341 ** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
343 ** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
345 ** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
347 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
348 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
349 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
351 ** Updated translations.
353 ** Update gnulib files.
355 ** API and ABI modifications:
356 gnutls_hex2bin: MODIFIED, uses size_t instead of int for string length,
357 and char* instead of void* for output buffer.
359 * Version 2.3.2 (released 2008-02-26)
361 ** Fix srcdir!=objdir failure in openpgpself test.
363 ** Improved API documentation output from GTK-DOC.
365 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_export(). Patch by Joe Orton.
367 ** Renamed gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and friends.
368 See <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-02/msg00043.html>.
370 ** Internal header files cleanup.
372 ** API and ABI modifications:
373 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
374 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
375 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: RENAMED to gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
376 gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
378 * Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
380 ** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
381 The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
384 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
385 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
387 ** gnutls-cli: When -d is used, also prints RNG information from libgcrypt.
389 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
392 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
393 for checks without limitation.
395 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
396 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
397 strings and return the proper size.
399 ** Add section 'On Record Padding' to the manual.
400 This collects all problems related to record padding with
401 Nokia/Sony-Ericsson phones that we know about.
403 ** Several improvements in the OpenPGP authentication.
404 Now subkeys can be used for authentication, according to
405 draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-00.txt.
407 ** certtool can print information on OpenPGP certificates and keys.
409 ** Added gnutls_x509_dn_import/init/deinit() to access raw DER DN.
412 ** Added gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas and other functions to
413 export elements from the certificate credentials structure. Based on
414 suggestion from Joe Orton.
417 Clarify that srp_base64 is not the same as normal base64.
419 ** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.
421 ** API and ABI modifications:
422 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: ADDED
423 gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: ADDED
424 gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: ADDED
425 gnutls_openpgp_keyid_t: ADDED, instead of hard-coded 'unsigned char[8]'.
426 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id: ADDED, obsoletes gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id.
427 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_revoked_status: ADDED
428 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_count: ADDED
429 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_idx: ADDED
430 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_revoked_status: ADDED
431 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_pk_algorithm: ADDED
432 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_creation_time: ADDED
433 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_expiration_time: ADDED
434 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_id: ADDED
435 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_usage: ADDED
436 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_fingerprint: ADDED
437 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id: ADDED
438 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_count: ADDED
439 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_idx: ADDED
440 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_revoked_status: ADDED
441 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_revoked_status: ADDED
442 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_pk_algorithm: ADDED
443 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_expiration_time: ADDED
444 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_id: ADDED
445 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_creation_time: ADDED
446 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_pk_dsa_raw: ADDED
447 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_pk_rsa_raw: ADDED
448 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_dsa_raw: ADDED
449 gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_rsa_raw: ADDED
450 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_export_subkey_dsa_raw: ADDED
451 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_export_subkey_rsa_raw: ADDED
452 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_export_dsa_raw: ADDED

460 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_SUBKEY_ERROR: ADDED
461 gnutls_hex2bin: ADDED
462 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL.
463 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE: ADDED, same as old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE.
464 GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL: ADDED, same as
465 old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL.
467 * Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
469 ** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
470 The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
471 wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
472 invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
473 included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
474 your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
476 ** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
477 Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
479 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
480 in a callback friendly way.
482 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
484 ** Updated translations.
486 ** Update gnulib files.
488 ** API and ABI modifications:
489 No changes since last version.
491 * Version 2.2.5 (released 2008-05-19)
493 ** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
494 The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
495 error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
496 (typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
497 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
498 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2807>.
500 ** API and ABI modifications:
501 No changes since last version.
503 * Version 2.2.4 (released 2008-05-19)
505 ** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
506 Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
507 which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
508 developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
509 with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to

526 *** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
527 The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
528 lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
529 cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
531 ** API and ABI modifications:
532 No changes since last version.
534 * Version 2.2.3 (released 2008-05-06)
536 ** Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
537 The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
538 thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
539 this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
540 Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and "Marc F. Clemente"
541 <marc@mclemente.net> for reporting and providing test servers.
543 ** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.
544 Reported by Tim Mooney, see
545 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106267>.
547 ** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
549 ** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
550 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>, see
551 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2008-04/msg00002.html>.
553 ** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
554 Reported by Kris Karas <ktk@enterprise.bidmc.harvard.edu> in
555 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2708>.
557 ** Make Camellia encryption work.
558 Reported by Yoshisato YANAGISAWA <yanagisawa@csg.is.titech.ac.jp> in
559 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/2746>.
561 ** API and ABI modifications:
562 No changes since last version.
564 * Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
566 ** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
567 Thanks to Laurence Withers <l@lwithers.me.uk>.
569 ** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
572 ** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
573 for checks without limitation.
575 ** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
576 and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
577 strings and return the proper size.
579 ** API and ABI modifications:
580 No changes since last version.
582 * Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
584 ** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
585 Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com>, see
586 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202269>.
588 ** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
589 in a callback friendly way.
591 ** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
593 ** API and ABI modifications:
594 No changes since last version.
596 * Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
598 ** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
600 ** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
601 This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
602 recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
603 libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
605 ** Translation updates.
606 Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
608 ** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
610 *** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
612 *** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
614 *** Support for DSA2 keys.
616 *** Support for Camellia cipher.
618 *** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
620 *** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
622 *** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
623 Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
624 versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
625 under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
626 recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
627 not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
630 *** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
631 Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
633 *** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
634 Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
637 *** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
639 ** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
640 To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
641 and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
642 API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
643 avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
644 deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
645 authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
647 Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
648 re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
651 Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
652 modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
653 the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
654 work with GnuTLS 2.2.
656 Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
657 gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
658 gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
659 However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
660 the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
661 discuss what you minimally have to modify.
663 *** XML related changes
664 The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
665 deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
666 1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
667 functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
668 certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
669 isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
670 help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
671 discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
673 *** TLS Authorization related changes
674 Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
675 only stub functions that returned an error code:
677 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
678 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
679 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
680 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
682 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
683 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
684 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
685 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
687 *** SRP related changes
688 The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
689 prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
690 callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
691 (doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
694 The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
695 GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
696 specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
697 used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
698 run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
699 alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
700 to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
701 deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
703 *** OpenPGP related changes
704 The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
705 removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
706 need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
708 All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
709 format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
710 GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
711 The following have been removed:
713 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
714 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
715 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
716 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
717 gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
718 gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
719 GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
721 The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
722 `gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
723 (binary or base64). The functions are:
724 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
725 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
726 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
727 gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
729 To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
730 functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
731 and new names of the affected functions and types are:
734 gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
735 gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
736 gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
737 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
738 GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
739 gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
740 gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
741 gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import
742 gnutls_openpgp_key_export gnutls_openpgp_crt_export
743 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_key_usage gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_usage
744 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_fingerprint gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_fingerprint
745 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_algorithm
746 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_name gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_name
747 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_version gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_version
748 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
749 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
750 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id
751 gnutls_openpgp_key_check_hostname gnutls_openpgp_crt_check_hostname
752 gnutls_openpgp_send_key gnutls_openpgp_send_cert
754 ** API and ABI modifications:
755 No changes since last version.
757 * Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
759 ** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
760 This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
761 library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
763 ** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
765 ** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
766 at gnutls_priority_set().
768 ** Use gettext 0.17 which updates m4/lib-*.m4 macros.
769 Fixes a problem with spurious -L/usr/lib additions.
771 ** API and ABI modifications:
772 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2: ADD.
774 * Version 2.1.7 (released 2007-11-29)
776 ** PKCS #8 parser can now encode/decode DSA keys.
778 ** Updated gnutls_set_default_priority2() now renamed to
779 gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct() which
780 accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
782 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
785 ** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
786 the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
788 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.
790 ** API and ABI modifications:

802 gnutls_set_default_priority: UNDEPRECATED
803 gnutls_set_default_priority_export: UNDEPRECATED
805 ** Undocumented API and ABI modifications earlier in the 2.1.x series:
806 GNUTLS_CIPHER_UNKNOWN: ADD.
807 GNUTLS_CIPHER_CAMELLIA_128_CBC: ADD.
808 GNUTLS_CIPHER_CAMELLIA_256_CBC: ADD.

821 * Version 2.1.6 (released 2007-11-15)
823 ** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
825 ** Added the --to-p8 option to certtool to convert private keys
828 ** Introduced the GNUTLS_E_BASE64_UNEXPECTED_HEADER_ERROR error code.
830 ** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
833 ** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
834 During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
835 was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
836 documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
837 avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
838 change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
839 done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
840 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
842 ** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
844 ** API and ABI modifications:
845 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.
846 GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.
847 GNUTLS_E_BASE64_UNEXPECTED_HEADER_ERROR: ADD.
849 * Version 2.1.5 (released 2007-11-01)
851 ** Fix PKCS#3 parameter export problem.

857 ** Update gnulib files.
859 ** API and ABI modifications:
860 No changes since last version.
862 * Version 2.1.4 (released 2007-10-27)
864 ** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
865 version 1 certificates.
867 ** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
868 of using /dev/random to generate keys.
870 ** Added priority functions that accept strings.
872 ** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
873 priorities preferences.
875 ** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
876 buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
879 ** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
880 all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
882 ** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
883 the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.
885 ** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.5.
887 ** Update gnulib files.

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

951 * Version 2.1.2 (released 2007-10-14)
953 ** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
954 We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
956 ** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
958 ** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
960 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
962 ** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.

993 * Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
995 ** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
996 Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
997 compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
998 how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
999 option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.

1052 importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
1053 concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
1054 encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
1055 lead the way with our own actions.
1057 ** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
1059 ** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
1061 ** API and ABI modifications:
1062 GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
1063 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
1065 * Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
1067 ** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
1068 This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
1069 The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
1071 ** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
1072 This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
1073 GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
1074 official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
1076 ** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
1078 ** API and ABI modifications:
1079 No changes since last version.
1081 * Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
1083 ** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
1085 ** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
1087 ** Don't build examples for disabled features.
1089 ** API and ABI modifications:
1090 No changes since last version.
1092 * Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
1094 ** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
1095 This solves connection problems in mutt, see
1096 <http://bugs.debian.org/439640>.
1098 ** Update gnulib files.
1099 In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
1100 getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
1101 library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
1102 tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
1103 command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
1104 to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
1108 ** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
1110 ** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
1112 ** API and ABI modifications:
1113 No changes since last version.
1115 * Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
1117 ** Install images for the info manual.
1118 This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
1119 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.tex.texinfo.bugs/3533> for
1120 discussions on the approach chosen.
1122 ** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
1123 Patch extracted from
1124 <http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/gnutls/gnutls-1.6.3-incompat-pointers.patch?rev=1.1&view=auto>.
1126 ** Fix warnings during build.
1127 Thanks to Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
1129 ** API and ABI modifications:
1130 No changes since last version.
1132 * Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
1134 ** New functions to perform external signing.
1135 Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
1136 using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
1137 find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
1138 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
1139 gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
1140 pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" <alon.barlev@gmail.com> for
1141 comments and testing.
1143 ** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
1144 See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
1145 the new external signing callback interface.
1147 ** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
1148 These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
1149 reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
1150 by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
1151 error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
1152 application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
1153 cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
1154 which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
1157 ** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
1158 The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
1159 let's not enable it just yet.
1161 ** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
1162 Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
1163 names without the '_t' suffix.
1165 ** Build fixes for Guile code.
1166 Patch from Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1168 ** More documentation fixes.
1169 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
1170 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1172 ** Updated Polish and Swedish translations.
1173 Thanks to Jakub Bogusz <qboosh@pld-linux.org> and Daniel Nylander
1174 <po@danielnylander.se>.
1176 ** API and ABI modifications:
1177 gnutls_sign_func: ADD, new type for sign callback.
1178 gnutls_sign_callback_set: ADD, new function to set sign callback.
1179 gnutls_sign_callback_get: ADD, new function to retrieve sign callback.
1180 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash,
1181 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash: ADD, new functions useful in sign callback.
1182 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN,
1183 GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX: ADD, new CPP #defines for error codes.
1185 * Version 1.7.16 (released 2007-08-07)
1187 ** Fix sanity checks and return values in certificate selection.
1188 In some cases, GnuTLS omitted to report suitable error codes when no
1189 suitable certificate was found.
1191 ** Fix gnutls-cli starttls EOF on Mac OS X.
1192 Thanks to Hal Eden <n.mavrogiannopoulos@gmail.com>.
1194 ** Documentation fixes.
1195 In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
1196 Ludovic Courtes <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1198 ** Update gnulib files.
1200 ** API and ABI modifications:
1201 No changes since last version.
1203 * Version 1.7.15 (released 2007-07-02)
1205 ** Fix self-tests key-id under mingw32.
1207 ** Test that the Guile header files are recent enough to work.
1208 Before we just tested that the command line tool 'guile' was recent
1209 enough, which may not be sufficient if you still have an old
1210 libguile.h header installed.
1212 ** Guile bindings are now installed under $prefix by default.
1213 Use --without-guile-site-dir to install it under $pkgdatadir/site/
1214 where $pkgdatadir is as returned by "guile-config info pkgdatadir".
1215 Use --with-guile-site-dir=/your/own/path to specify the path manually.
1216 The default, --with-guile-site-dir, will install the Guile bindings
1217 under $datadir/guile/site. There is a new section 'Guile
1218 Preparations' in the manual that discuss these issues.
1220 ** Fix run-time library path ordering in linking the Guile bindings.
1222 ** Improved manual on downloading, installing, getting help, bug reports etc.
1223 Suggested by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1225 ** Add Malay message translations.
1226 Thanks to Sharuzzaman Ahmat Raslan <sharuzzaman@myrealbox.com>.
1228 ** API and ABI modifications:
1229 No changes since last version.
1231 * Version 1.7.14 (released 2007-06-26)
1233 ** Don't enable Guile bindings unless we have Guile 1.8 or later.
1234 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1236 ** Fix memory leak during DSA signature verification.
1237 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1239 ** Fix crash in gnutls-cli when TLS handshake fails.
1240 Reported by Marc Haber <mh+debian-bugs@zugschlus.de> and Andreas
1241 Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> via Debian BTS #429183, see
1242 <http://bugs.debian.org/429183>.
1244 ** Minor OpenPGP fixes in stream_to_datum.
1245 Patch from Timo Schulz <twoaday@freakmail.de> and Ludovic Courtès
1246 <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1248 ** Fix off-by-one in TLS 1.2 handshake.
1249 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1251 ** Minor Guile binding self-test cleanup.
1252 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1254 ** Update gnulib files.
1256 ** API and ABI modifications:
1257 No changes since last version.
1259 * Version 1.7.13 (released 2007-06-11)
1261 ** OpenCDK copy updated to version 0.6.3.
1263 ** Build fixes for GnuTLS Guile bindings.
1264 Patch from Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>.
1266 ** Build fix for GTK-DOC manual.
1268 ** Update gnulib files.
1270 ** API and ABI modifications:
1271 No changes since last version.
1273 * Version 1.7.12 (released 2007-06-08)
1275 ** Guile bindings for GnuTLS have been included.
1276 Contributed by Ludovic Courtès <ludovic.courtes@laas.fr>. There is a
1277 new chapter 'Guile Bindings' in the manual.
1279 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
1280 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
1281 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
1282 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
1284 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
1285 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
1286 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
1289 Reported by Dennis Vshivkov <walrus@amur.ru>, see
1290 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=333050>. Added
1291 self-test tests/parse_ca.c to test regressions.
1293 ** Fix build failures related to missing images in manual.
1294 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
1296 ** Update gnulib files.
1298 ** API and ABI modifications:
1299 No changes since last version.
1301 * Version 1.7.11 (released 2007-05-26)
1303 ** Include opencdk.h in the release.
1304 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
1306 ** API and ABI modifications:
1307 No changes since last version.
1309 * Version 1.7.10 (released 2007-05-25)
1311 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
1312 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>.
1314 ** Update of gnulib files.
1316 ** GnuTLS is now developed in GIT instead of CVS.
1317 See <http://repo.or.cz/w/gnutls.git> for a public repository.
1319 ** API and ABI modifications:
1320 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
1321 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
1323 * Version 1.7.9 (released 2007-05-12)
1325 ** X.509 certificates are preferred over OpenPGP keys.
1326 This is a change in the semantics of gnutls_set_default_priority.
1328 ** The included copy of OpenCDK has been updated to 0.6.1.
1329 There has been some API changes in OpenCDK, and the GnuTLS layer have
1330 been modified as well. Note that while there are API/ABI incompatible
1331 changes in OpenCDK, this does not influence GnuTLS's API/ABI because
1332 its API/ABI have not changed. From this version on, GnuTLS requires
1333 OpenCDK 0.6.0 or later.
1335 ** Fix build failure caused by missing doc/gnutls-logo.pdf.
1337 ** Change certtool's default serial number from 0 to a time-based value.
1339 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
1340 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
1341 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
1342 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
1343 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
1344 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
1345 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
1347 ** Fix mem leaks in gnutls_x509_crt_print.
1349 ** API and ABI modifications:
1350 No changes since last version.
1352 * Version 1.7.8 (released 2007-04-16)
1354 ** Added examples for the authorization extension.
1355 See doc/examples/ex-client-authz.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-authz.c.
1357 ** The examples only use gnutls_set_default_priority().
1358 The exception is when DH_ANON is needed.
1360 ** Improve gnutls_set_default_priority() priorities.
1361 The new approach is for it to try and negotiate all secure and
1362 standard mechanisms available. Currently, DH_ANON ciphersuites and
1363 LZO compressions are not enabled by default, because they are,
1364 respectively, insecure and non-standardized. Note that TLS 1.2 will
1365 not be enabled by default in non-experimental release until it has
1366 been approved by the IETF.
1368 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now uses the library's default priorities.
1369 This means that to get DH_ANON and LZO compression, you'll need to
1370 specify that manually using '--kx anon' or '--comp lzo'.
1372 ** Minor fixes to the human display format of X.509 certificates.
1374 ** New APIs to extract Distinguished Name's from X.509 certificates.
1375 Based on patch from Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
1377 ** Improved library searching for opencdk.
1378 It will now add the appropriate -R or -Wl,-rpath flags as necessary.
1379 The deprecated opencdk.m4 is no longer used.
1381 ** New APIs to list supported algorithms in the library.
1382 The APIs are gnutls_cipher_list, gnutls_mac_list,
1383 gnutls_compression_list, gnutls_protocol_list,
1384 gnutls_certificate_type_list, gnutls_kx_list, and
1385 gnutls_cipher_suite_info. Suggested by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com>.
1387 ** The gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id API now handle non-RSA/DSA keys.
1389 ** New configure option --disable-tls-authorization to disable tls-authz.
1391 ** Fix prototype for `gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials'.
1392 The last parameter was renamed from 'flags' to 'format' and the type
1393 changed from 'unsigned int' to 'gnutls_psk_key_flags' (an enum type),
1394 which shouldn't cause any ABI changes. Reported by ludo@chbouib.org
1397 ** Fix allocation in gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key.
1398 Tiny patch from ludo@chbouib.org (Ludovic Courtès).
1400 ** API and ABI modifications:
1401 gnutls_x509_dn_t: ADD.
1402 gnutls_x509_ava_st: ADD.
1403 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject,
1404 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer: ADD.
1405 gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava: ADD.
1406 gnutls_cipher_list: ADD.
1407 gnutls_mac_list: ADD.
1408 gnutls_compression_list: ADD.
1409 gnutls_protocol_list: ADD.
1410 gnutls_certificate_type_list: ADD.
1411 gnutls_kx_list: ADD.
1412 gnutls_cipher_suite_info: ADD.
1414 * Version 1.7.7 (released 2007-02-22)
1416 ** Support for supplemental handshake messages and authorization data.
1417 Supplemental data is described in RFC 4680 and the authorization
1418 extensions in draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.
1420 ** Support for authorization data in gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
1421 New parameters --authz-x509-attr-cert and --authz-saml-assertion.
1423 ** Fix for gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
1424 Before it would have reported that the certificate matched a hostname
1425 when it did not have any dNSName or any CN field. Report and tiny
1426 patch from "Richard W.M. Jones" <rjones@redhat.com>.
1428 ** New self test for RFC 2818 comparison in gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname.
1429 Tests regressions of the bug, and several other features.
1431 ** GnuTLS now matches URI's with IP Addresses against iPAddress SAN's.
1432 Before there were no support for iPAddress SAN's during comparison.
1434 ** New API to print information about CRL's.
1435 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_print.
1437 ** New API to extract signature value from CRL's.
1438 The function is gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature.
1440 ** Support for directoryName Subject Alternative Name's.
1441 The gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name function returns the DN as a
1442 string in the provided buffer.
1444 ** Internal improvements to certtool.
1445 It uses gnutls_x509_crl_print to print CRL information. It uses some
1446 more gnulib modules to simplify error handling.
1448 ** API and ABI modifications:
1449 GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_SUPPLEMENTAL: ADD, new gnutls_handshake_description_t element.
1450 gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t: ADD.
1451 gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t: ADD.
1452 gnutls_supplemental_get_name: ADD.
1453 gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func,
1454 gnutls_authz_send_callback_func: ADD, callback prototypes.
1455 gnutls_authz_enable: ADD.
1456 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert,
1457 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion,
1458 gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url,
1459 gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url: ADD.
1460 GNUTLS_SAN_DN: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
1461 gnutls_x509_crl_print: ADD.
1462 gnutls_x509_crl_get_signature: ADD.
1464 * Version 1.7.6 (released 2007-02-12)
1466 ** Support for 'otherName' Subject Alternative Names.
1467 The existing API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name may now return
1468 the new type GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME together with the otherName value.
1469 To find out the otherName OID (necessary for proper parsing of the
1470 value), use the new API gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid.
1471 For known OIDs, gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid will
1472 return "virtual" SAN values, e.g., GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP to
1473 simplify OID matching. Suggested by Matthias Wimmer <m@tthias.eu>.
1475 ** Certtool can print otherName SAN values for certificates.
1476 For known otherName OIDs (currently only id-on-xmppAddr as defined by
1477 RFC 3920), it will also print the name.
1479 ** Fix TLS 1.2 RSA signing in servers.
1480 Before it used the old-style MD5+SHA1 signature, but the TLS
1481 signatures should be normal PKCS#1 signatures. FYI, we use and
1482 require that DigestInfo parameters are present and NULL for TLS 1.2.
1484 ** Add APIs to access X.509 extensions sequentially.
1485 The existing APIs gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid() and
1486 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid() does not permit callers to
1487 inspect the extensions in the order defined by the certificate.
1489 ** Add API to extract signature value from X.509 certificates.
1490 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature.
1492 ** Fix crash when generating proxy certificates in batch mode.
1493 If you don't specify a proxy policy in batch mode, it will use
1496 ** Add API to print information about X.509 certificates.
1497 The function is gnutls_x509_crt_print.
1499 ** Certtool uses the new API gnutls_x509_crt_print to print certificate info.
1500 One consequence of this is that the output syntax has changed
1501 slightly. Some more fields are printed.
1505 ** API and ABI modifications:
1506 gnutls_x509_crt_print: ADD
1507 gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t: ADD, new enum.
1508 gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature: ADD.
1509 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data: ADD.
1510 gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info: ADD.
1511 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_othername_oid: ADD.
1512 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
1513 GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP: ADD, new gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t element.
1515 * Version 1.7.5 (released 2007-02-06)
1517 ** Servers won't negotiate SRP RSA/DSS cipher suites if no SRP credential
1520 ** Default behaviour for the gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv tools improved.
1522 ** Fix --list output for gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
1523 Mention TLS1.2, SHA512 etc.
1525 ** Manual contains new section on setting up a test HTTP server.
1526 A server set up following those descriptions are available online via
1527 <http://www.gnutls.org/server.html>.
1529 ** Update of gnulib files.
1531 ** API and ABI modifications:
1532 No changes since last version.
1534 * Version 1.7.4 (released 2007-02-05)
1536 ** Support for RSA signing using SHA-256/384/512.
1537 A new self test "sha2" tries to build a long X.509 certificate chain
1538 testing all new hashes.
1540 ** The gnutls-serv tool now use static DH parameters if none are supplied.
1542 ** Discuss proxy certificates in the manual.
1544 ** Improve bibliographical citations in the manual.
1546 ** Update of gnulib files.
1548 ** Fix certtool template handling of pathLenConstraints.
1549 It now defaults to -1 instead of 0, which causes the field to be
1550 missing unless the template specify it.
1552 ** API and ABI modifications:
1555 GNUTLS_MAC_SHA512: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t values.
1558 GNUTLS_DIG_SHA512: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t values.
1559 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA256,
1560 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA384,
1561 GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_SHA512: New gnutls_sign_algorithm_t values.
1563 * Version 1.7.3 (released 2007-02-01)
1565 ** New option to certtool: --generate-proxy.
1566 This will generate a Proxy Certificate from an end entity certificate.
1567 Proxy Certificates are documented in RFC 3820. You will need to
1568 specify the proxy certificate's private key with --load-privkey, the
1569 user certificate with --load-certificate and the private key used to
1570 sign the new proxy certificate with --load-ca-privkey. Certtool will
1571 query for proxy path length and the policy language OID. Currently
1572 only OIDs that have an empty policy are supported (which includes the
1573 two OIDs defined by RFC 3820).
1575 ** Certtool --certificate-info now prints information for Proxy Certificates.
1576 Before the proxy extension was just printed as DER encoded data.
1578 ** New APIs to set proxy subject names and get/set proxy cert extension.
1580 ** Fix parsing of pathLenConstraints in BasicConstraints with missing cA.
1582 ** Added self-test to test for regressions of pathLenConstraint bug.
1583 Incidentally, this also test (some) other regressions or changes in
1584 the output from certtool --certificate-info.
1586 ** When certtool generates CA certificates, pressing enter on the path
1587 ** length constraint query will now remove the field.
1588 Before it set the path length constraint to 0, which is a rather poor
1591 ** Certtool now print times in UTC when printing certificate/CRL info.
1593 ** Add better fix to work around C++ compiler bug on Mac OS X.
1594 Reported and tiny patch provided by Matthias Scheler <tron@NetBSD.org>.
1596 ** Fix import of ASCII armored OpenPGP keys.
1597 Patch by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
1599 ** Update of gnulib files.
1601 ** API and ABI modifications:
1602 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy_dn: ADD.
1603 gnutls_x509_crt_set_proxy: ADD.
1604 gnutls_x509_crt_get_proxy: ADD.
1606 * Version 1.7.2 (released 2007-01-14)
1608 ** Certtool now print the value of the pathLenConstraints field for certs.
1610 ** Certtool now query for path length constraints when generating CA certs.
1611 For batch uses, the certtool configuration name is "path_len".
1612 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
1614 ** Add new API to get/set pathLenConstraint in the Basic Constraints.
1615 The new functions gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints and
1616 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints provide a superset of the
1617 functionality in the old gnutls_x509_crt_get_ca_status and
1618 gnutls_x509_crt_set_ca_status (respectively), but the old functions
1619 will continue to be supported.
1621 ** Add new API in OpenCDK to extract public/secret OpenPGP key to S-expr.
1622 The functions are cdk_pubkey_to_sexp and cdk_seckey_to_sexp. A proper
1623 OpenCDK release with this patch will be made soon, which should bump
1624 the OpenCDK version number. Patch by Mario Lenz <mario.lenz@gmx.net>.
1626 ** Certtool --to-p12 can now store more than one certificate in the blob.
1627 Before it could only store one certificate, but now it will read and
1628 store as many certificate there are from the --load-certificate file.
1629 Suggested by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
1631 ** Clean up separation of gnutls and gnutls-extra for OpenPGP.
1632 In particular, the OpenPGP function variables are no longer part of
1633 the exported libgnutls interface, and no header files from
1634 libgnutls-extra (GPL) are needed by libgnutls (LGPL). The variables
1635 were never intended for non-internal purposes, and thus this does not
1636 imply a change in the external API/ABI.
1638 ** Print URL to gaa when missing, and fix srcdir!=builddir for GAA files.
1639 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
1641 ** GnuTLS no longer uses -mms-bitfields --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc.
1642 Before these parameters were set to make GnuTLS build under mingw32,
1643 however, they appear to no longer be necessary.
1645 ** A minor fix to the C++ library to make it build.
1646 Reported by Pavlov Konstantin <thresh@altlinux.ru>.
1648 ** Update of gnulib files.
1650 ** API and ABI modifications:
1651 gnutls_x509_crt_get_basic_constraints: ADD.
1652 gnutls_x509_crt_set_basic_constraints: ADD.
1653 cdk_pubkey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
1654 cdk_seckey_to_sexp: ADD (in opencdk).
1656 * Version 1.7.1 (released 2006-12-28)
1658 ** TLS 1.2 server side fix.
1659 The Certificate Request sent did not contain the list of supported
1660 hashes field, thus violating the protocol. It will now contain an
1661 empty list. Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
1663 ** TLS 1.2 DSA signature verification fix.
1664 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
1666 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
1667 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
1668 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
1670 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
1671 Also added a self-test in tests/certificate_set_x509_crl.c to test the
1672 function. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
1674 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
1675 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
1676 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
1677 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
1678 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
1681 ** Improve out-of-sourcedir builds from CVS.
1682 Reported by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès).
1684 ** Bootstrap tools changed.
1685 We now require autoconf 2.61, automake 1.10, and gettext 0.16, when
1686 building GnuTLS from CVS. Libtool 1.5.22 is used.
1688 ** Fixed a syntax error in lib/gnutls.asn.
1689 Reported by Paul Millar <p.millar@physics.gla.ac.uk>.
1691 ** Added German translation of GnuTLS messages.
1693 ** Update of gnulib files.
1695 ** API and ABI modifications:
1696 No changes since last version.
1698 * Version 1.7.0 (released 2006-11-29)
1700 ** The default protocol priority try TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 too.
1701 The details is that the protocol priority set by
1702 `gnutls_set_default_priority' has been changed from TLS 1.0 and SSL
1703 3.0 to TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and SSL 3.0.
1705 ** Preliminary support for TLS 1.2.
1706 The client has been successfully tested against
1707 https://www.mikestoolbox.org:4433/.
1709 ** Anonself test now print a lot of debugging info, including TLS version.
1711 ** Doc fixes in OpenCDK, to avoid some gtk-doc warnings.
1713 ** Update of gnulib files.
1715 ** API and ABI modifications:
1716 GNUTLS_TLS1_2: New gnutls_protocol_t enum member.
1718 *** Pulled up from stable 1.6.x branch:
1720 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
1721 This fixes the following error message:
1722 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
1723 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
1725 * Version 1.6.3 (released 2007-05-26)
1727 ** New API functions to extract DER encoded X.509 Subject/Issuer DN.
1728 Suggested by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>. Backported
1729 from the 1.7.x branch, see
1730 <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnutls/2007-05/msg00029.html>.
1732 ** Have PKCS8 parser return better error codes.
1733 Reported by Nate Nielsen <nielsen-list@memberwebs.com>, see
1734 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001653.html> and
1735 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-May/001654.html>.
1737 ** Fix mem leak for sessions with client authentication via certificates.
1738 Reported by Andrew W. Nosenko <andrew.w.nosenko@gmail.com>, see
1739 <http://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnutls-dev/2007-April/001539.html>.
1741 ** Fix building of 'tlsia' self test.
1742 Earlier some gcc are known to build tlsia linking to
1743 $prefix/lib/libgnutls-extra.so rather than the libgnutls-extra.so in
1744 the build directory, even though command line parameters look OK.
1745 Changing order of some parameters fixes it.
1747 ** API and ABI modifications:
1748 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_issuer_dn: ADD.
1749 gnutls_x509_crt_get_raw_dn: ADD.
1751 * Version 1.6.2 (released 2007-04-18)
1753 ** Fix X.509 signing with RSA-PKCS#1 to set a NULL parameters fields.
1754 Before, we remove the parameters field, which resulted in a slightly
1755 different DER encoding which in turn caused signature verification
1756 failures of GnuTLS-generated RSA certificates in some other
1757 implementations (e.g., GnuPG 2.x's gpgsm). Depending on which RFCs
1758 you read, this may or may not be correct, but our new behaviour appear
1759 to be consistent with other widely used implementations.
1761 ** Regenerate the PKIX ASN.1 syntax tree.
1762 For some reason, after changing the ASN.1 type of ldap-UID in the last
1763 release, the generated C file built from the ASN.1 schema was not
1764 refreshed. This can cause problems when reading/writing UID
1765 components inside X.500 Distinguished Names. Reported by devel
1766 <dev001@pas-world.com>.
1768 ** Updated translations.
1770 ** API and ABI modifications:
1771 No changes since last version.
1773 * Version 1.6.1 (released 2006-12-28)
1775 ** Fix the list of trusted CAs that server's send to clients.
1776 Before, the list contained issuer DN's instead of subject DN's of the
1777 trusted CAs. Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
1779 ** Fix gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl to initialize the CRL before using it.
1780 Reported by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
1782 ** Encode UID fields in DN's as DirectoryString.
1783 Before GnuTLS encoded and parsed UID fields as IA5String. This was
1784 incorrect, it should have used DirectoryString. Now it will use
1785 DirectoryString for the UID field, but for backwards compatibility it
1786 will also accept IA5String UID's. Reported by Max Kellermann
1789 ** Fix ./configure failure with non-GCC compilers.
1790 This fixes the following error message:
1791 configure: error: conditional "HAVE_LD_OUTPUT_DEF" was never defined.
1792 Reported by "Michael C. Vergallen" <mvergall@telenet.be>.
1794 ** API and ABI modifications:
1795 No changes since last version.
1797 * Version 1.6.0 (released 2006-11-17)
1799 ** No changes since 1.5.5.
1800 The major changes compared to the 1.4.x branch are:
1802 *** A GnuTLS C++ library is part of the official distribution.
1803 Currently there are no examples or documentation, but hopefully this
1804 will change. See gnutlsxx.h for the API.
1806 *** Windows is a supported platform.
1807 There are, however, two know bugs. One is related to select() in
1808 command line tools (not, nota bene, in the library), the other is a
1809 problem with libgcrypt that causes delays. Help is needed to resolve
1810 those issues, so we feel we can't delay the release because of this.
1812 *** New APIs for custom push/pull function error reporting.
1813 The new APIs are gnutls_transport_set_errno and
1814 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. See the release notes for version
1815 1.5.4 for more information.
1817 *** Self tests are run under valgrind, if available. See --disable-valgrind.
1819 * Version 1.5.5 (released 2006-11-16)
1821 ** Correctly bump shared library version after adding new APIs.
1822 This was forgotten in the last release.
1824 ** Fix unsigned vs signed problem in ex-x509-info.c example.
1825 Reported by Tim Kosse <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
1827 ** Fix the rsa-md5-collision self test to work for MinGW+Wine.
1829 ** Update of gnulib files.
1831 ** API and ABI modifications:
1832 No changes since last version.
1834 * Version 1.5.4 (released 2006-11-07)
1836 ** New API functions to set errno in push/pull functions.
1837 Under Windows, setting the errno variable in a push/pull replacement
1838 may end up setting the wrong errno variable, and GnuTLS send/recv
1839 functions become confused about the real errno returned from a failed
1840 push/pull function. Therefor, we have added two APIs to set the errno
1841 variable used by GnuTLS. The APIs can also help to keep things
1842 thread-safe, by avoiding potentially global variables. Typically,
1843 instead of setting errno in your push/pull function, you will call one
1844 of these functions. It is recommended to use
1845 gnutls_transport_set_errno, but if you don't have the session variable
1846 easily accessible in the push/pull replacement function, you can use
1847 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno. Suggested by Tim Kosse
1848 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org>.
1850 void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t session, int err);
1851 void gnutls_transport_set_global_errno (int err);
1853 ** When calling `recv' or `send' Windows errors are handled properly.
1854 The Windows recv/send functions doesn't use errno, and GnuTLS now use
1855 WSAGetLastError to access the error condition instead.
1857 ** Several OpenPGP API fixes.
1858 All suggested by ludovic.courtes@laas.fr (Ludovic Courtès). The most
1859 important fix is to change the return value of
1860 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_pk_algorithm and
1861 gnutls_openpgp_key_get_pk_algorithm from 'int' to
1862 'gnutls_pk_algorithm_t', which is an enum type (and thus API/ABI
1863 compatible with 'int').
1865 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
1866 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
1867 ** instead of the lowest.
1868 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
1870 ** Replace old constructs with use of gnulib modules.
1871 For example, we can now assume unistd.h, sys/stat.h, sys/socket.h in
1872 the code. If the headers doesn't exist on the target system, gnulib
1873 will make sure its replacement header files are used instead.
1875 ** Fix SOVERSION computation for *.def files.
1876 This fixes build errors similar to "No rule to make target
1877 `libgnutls-`expr', needed by `all-am'." when building for Windows.
1879 ** gnutls_check-version uses strverscmp from gnulib.
1881 ** Update of gnulib files.
1883 ** API and ABI modifications:
1884 gnutls_transport_set_errno: ADD
1885 gnutls_transport_set_global_errno: ADD
1887 * Version 1.5.3 (released 2006-10-26)
1889 ** Add new self-test of RSA-MD5 signature chains.
1890 Note that we already, since GnuTLS 1.2.9, reject RSA-MD5 signatures
1891 when verifying X.509 chains. The code is in tests/rsa-md5-collision/
1892 and is based on the work by Marc Stevens et al, see
1893 <http://www.win.tue.nl/hashclash/TargetCollidingCertificates/>.
1895 ** Re-factor self tests.
1897 ** The include copy of Libtasn1 is updated to version 0.3.7.
1899 ** The included copy of OpenCDK is updated to version 0.5.11.
1901 ** Fix the filename of the *.def file on Windows after library version bump.
1903 ** Separated the gnulib directory into one for LGPL modules and one for GPL.
1904 This allows the GPL'd part of GnuTLS to take advantage of the GPL'd
1905 gnulib modules. Earlier we could only use the LGPL'ed module from
1906 gnulib, because two gnulib directories in the same project didn't
1909 ** API and ABI modifications:
1910 No changes since last version.
1912 * Version 1.5.2 (released 2006-10-03)
1914 ** Decrement the shared library version back to 13 (as in the 1.4.x branch).
1915 Note that if you installed 1.5.0 or 1.5.1, they will have a higher
1916 shared library version than this version, so you'll have to remove
1917 them and possibly relink your applications. The reason for this is
1918 that no API/ABI changes have been made since the 1.4.x branch, and
1919 that incrementing the shared library version was a mistake. Reported
1920 by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
1922 ** Fix off-by-one error when computing length to malloc.
1923 The code is used by gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_file and
1924 gnutls_openpgp_add_keyring_mem. Reported by "Adam Langley"
1925 <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
1927 ** Add version script for the GnuTLS C++ library.
1928 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
1930 ** Fix the C++ compiler detection logic.
1931 Reported by Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org>.
1933 ** Update of gnulib files.
1935 ** API and ABI modifications:
1936 No changes since last version.
1938 * Version 1.5.1 (released 2006-09-21)
1940 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
1941 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
1942 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
1943 missing or empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be
1944 used to alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
1945 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
1946 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka
1947 OIWA <y.oiwa@aist.go.jp>.
1949 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
1950 up to date information.
1952 ** Add self test to test for above flaw.
1954 ** Fix gnutls-cli-debug regarding resume support detection.
1955 Earlier, if the session-id from the server had a length of 0, it would
1956 indicate the the server supports resumption, which isn't the case.
1957 Reported by Kataja Kai <kai.kataja@op.fi>.
1959 ** Fix building of examples on FreeBSD by including netinet/in.h.
1960 Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy <novel@FreeBSD.org>.
1962 ** Fix certtool bug that caused the private key to not be loaded when
1963 generating a certificate with --load-request, which in turn triggered
1964 another unrelated bug in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 (also fixed). Reported
1965 by Sascha Ziemann <sascha.ziemann@secunet.com>.
1967 ** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv works on Windows.
1968 The problem was the select() call that doesn't work on file
1969 descriptors (stdin) on Windows. We borrowed some code from plibc to
1970 solve this. It appears to be somewhat unreliable though.
1972 ** Autoconf 2.60 is now used.
1974 ** API and ABI modifications:
1975 No changes since last version.
1977 * Version 1.5.0 (released 2006-08-13)
1979 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
1981 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
1983 ** Improvements for building under MinGW.
1984 Provides internal inet_ntop and inet_pton functions and arpa/inet.h
1985 header. Calls WSAStartup and WSACleanup in gnutls_global_init and
1986 gnutls_global_deinit, respectively. Loads getaddrinfo and getnameinfo
1987 at run-time from ws2_32.dll, and falls back on a simple replacement if
1988 it is not available. Builds the library with -mms-bitfields
1989 -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc. Links with --output-def, to
1990 create *.def files, which are installed.
1992 ** The examples now (conditionally) include config.h and link to gnulib.
1993 No other source changes were necessary, so the examples should
1994 continue to be possible to use stand-alone without any autoconf or
1997 ** Added C++ header "gnutlsxx.h" and library "libgnutlsxx".
1998 You may unconditionally disable it with --disable-cxx. See
1999 includes/gnutls/gnutlsxx.h and lib/gnutlsxx.cpp for the
2002 ** Made command line tool '--version' behave according to GNU Standards.
2003 This enables 'make distcheck' to succeed.
2005 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
2007 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
2008 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
2010 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
2011 See http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html regardging
2012 GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 for more up to date information. Reported by
2013 satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.
2015 ** API and ABI modifications:
2016 No changes since last version.
2018 * Version 1.4.5 (released 2006-11-06)
2020 ** When a GnuTLS server receive a SSLv2 Client Hello for an unknown TLS
2021 ** version, try to negotiate the highest version support by the GnuTLS server,
2022 ** instead of the lowest.
2023 Reported by <Pasi.Eronen@nokia.com>.
2025 ** Fix typo in doc/examples/ex-serv-pgp.c.
2026 Reported by Adam Langley" <agl@imperialviolet.org>.
2028 ** API and ABI modifications:
2029 No changes since last version.
2031 * Version 1.4.4 (released 2006-09-12)
2033 ** Relax the test that caught signatures that exploit the variant of
2034 ** Bleichenbacher's Crypto 06 rump session attack on our
2035 ** verification logic flaw.
2036 In particular, we now permit the digestAlgorithm.parameters field to
2037 be present but empty, whereas in 1.4.3 we actually checked that the
2040 ** Revert the removal of debug information for the GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 problem.
2041 The messages are only printed in debug mode, which is not recommended
2042 for normal use, and thus logging this situation cannot be abused as an
2043 oracle in typical recommended situations.
2045 ** API and ABI modifications:
2046 No changes since last version.
2048 * Version 1.4.3 (released 2006-09-08)
2050 ** Fix PKCS#1 verification to avoid a variant of Bleichenbacher's
2051 ** Crypto 06 rump session attack.
2052 In particular, we check that the digestAlgorithm.parameters field is
2053 empty, to avoid that it can contain "garbage" that may be used to
2054 alter the numeric properties of the signature. See
2055 <http://www.imc.org/ietf-openpgp/mail-archive/msg14307.html> (which is
2056 not exactly the same as the problem we fix here). Reported by Yutaka

2059 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-4 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more
2060 up to date information.
2062 ** Fix PKCS#1 decryption to avoid Bleichenbacher's Crypto 98 attack.
2063 See <http://www.bell-labs.com/user/bleichen/papers/pkcs.ps.gz>.
2064 Reported by Werner Koch <wk@gnupg.org>.
2066 See GNUTLS-SA-2006-3 on http://www.gnutls.org/security.html for more

2069 ** Fix crash in gnutls_x509_crt_sign2 if passed a NULL issuer_key.
2071 ** API and ABI modifications:
2072 No changes since last version.
2074 * Version 1.4.2 (released 2006-08-12)
2076 ** Fix a crash (strcmp() on a NULL value) in the certificate verification logic.
2077 This can happen if you call gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2 and have
2078 a certain mix of local CA certificates and the peer send special
2079 certificates, that together trigger certain behaviour. It is not
2080 known at this point whether the crash can be triggered without the
2081 special local CA certificate, and thus turn this into a remote crash
2082 of clients that verify server certificates when they talk to a server
2083 with the special server certificate. See GNUTLS-SA-2006-2 on
2084 http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html for more up to date
2085 information. Reported by satyakumar <satyam_kkd@hyd.hellosoft.com>.
2087 ** Change SRP and Cert-Type extensions to match IANA registry.
2089 ** OpenCDK updated to 0.5.9 to fix some problems with OpenPGP support.
2091 ** Make --without-included-libtasn1 work.
2092 Reported by Daniel Black <dragonheart@gentoo.org>.
2094 ** API and ABI modifications:
2095 No changes since last version.
2097 * Version 1.4.1 (released 2006-06-14)
2099 ** Replaced inactive ifdefs to enable openpgp support in test programs.
2101 ** Fixed bug in OpenPGP authentication handshake.
2103 ** Fixed typographical in man pages.
2105 ** Build fixes of the manual.
2107 ** Added Swedish translation.
2109 ** API and ABI modifications:
2110 No changes since last version.
2112 * Version 1.4.0 (released 2006-05-15)
2114 ** Remove GnuTLS 0.8.x compatibility functions.
2116 ** The libgcrypt RNG is initialized in gnutls_global_init().
2118 ** TLS/IA API changes from Emile van Bergen.
2119 A dummy credential structure is not needed now, if you wish to use the
2120 low-level TLS/IA API, simply call gnutls_ia_enable to enable TLS/IA on
2123 ** The self-tests are now run under valgrind, if it is installed.
2125 ** Libtasn1 is updated to 0.3.4, and that version is now required.
2127 ** The command line tools now use getaddrinfo and support IPv6.
2129 ** API and ABI modifications:
2130 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time,
2131 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time: Removed.
2132 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase: Removed, replaced by gnutls_ia_enable.
2133 gnutls_ia_enable: Added.
2135 * Version 1.3.5 (released 2006-03-08)
2137 ** Error messages are now translated using GNU Gettext.
2139 ** The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml now return an internal error.
2140 This means that the code to convert X.509 certificates to XML format
2141 does not work any more. The reason is that the function called
2142 libtasn1 internal functions. It seems unclean for libtasn1 to export
2143 the APIs needed here. Instead it would be better to implement XML
2144 support inside libtasn1 properly. If you need this functionality
2145 strongly, please consider looking into implementing this suggested
2146 approach instead. As a workaround, you may also modify lib/x509/xml.c
2147 (change '#if 1' to '#if 0') and build using --with-included-libtasn1.
2149 ** Libraries are now built with libtool's -no-undefined.
2150 This helps producing libraries for Windows using mingw32.
2152 ** Doc fixes to explain that gnutls_record_send can block.
2154 ** Libtasn1 0.3.1 or later is now required.
2155 The include copy has been updated too.
2157 ** gnutls-cli can now recognize services and port numbers with the -p option.
2159 ** API and ABI modifications:
2160 No changes since last version.
2162 * Version 1.3.4 (released 2006-02-09)
2164 ** Fix read of out bounds bug in DER parser.
2165 Reported by Evgeny Legerov <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from
2166 Protover SSL. Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required, which contains the
2167 previous bug fix. The included libtasn1 version in GnuTLS has been
2170 ** Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
2171 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
2172 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
2173 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
2175 ** Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
2176 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
2177 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
2179 ** Fix build problems of OpenCDK on AIX.
2180 Thanks to "Heiden, John" <JHeiden@UTNet.UToledo.Edu>.
2182 ** API and ABI modifications:
2183 No changes since last version.
2185 * Version 1.3.3 (released 2006-01-12)
2187 ** New API to access the TLS master secret.
2188 When possible, you should use the TLS PRF functions instead.
2189 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
2191 ** Improved handling when multiple libraries use GnuTLS at the same time.
2192 Now gnutls_global_init() can be called multiple times, and
2193 gnutls_global_deinit() will only deallocate the structure when it has
2194 been called as many times as gnutls_global_init() was called.
2196 ** Added a self test of TLS resume functionality.
2198 ** Fix crash in TLS resume code, caused by TLS/IA changes.
2200 ** Documentation fixes about thread unsafety, prompted by
2201 ** discussion with bryanh@giraffe-data.com (Bryan Henderson).
2202 In particular, gnutls_global_init() and gnutls_global_deinit() are not
2203 thread safe. Careful callers may want to protect the call using a
2204 mutex. The problem could also be ignored, which would cause a memory
2205 leak under rare conditions when two threads invoke the function
2206 roughly at the same time.
2208 ** Add 'const' keywords in various places, from Frediano ZIGLIO.
2210 ** The code was indented again, including the external header files.
2212 ** API and ABI modifications:
2213 New functions to retrieve the master secret value:
2214 gnutls_session_get_master_secret
2216 Add a 'const' keyword to existing API:
2217 gnutls_x509_crq_get_challenge_password
2219 * Version 1.3.2 (released 2005-12-15)
2221 ** GnuTLS now support TLS Inner application (TLS/IA).
2222 This is per draft-funk-tls-inner-application-extension-01. This
2223 functionality is added to libgnutls-extra, so it is licensed under the
2224 GNU General Public License.
2226 ** New APIs to access the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF).
2227 The PRF is used by some protocols building on TLS, such as EAP-PEAP
2228 and EAP-TTLS. One function to access the raw PRF and one to access
2229 the PRF seeded with the client/server random fields are provided.
2230 Suggested by Jouni Malinen <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
2232 ** New APIs to acceess the client and server random fields in a session.
2233 These fields can be useful by protocols using TLS. Note that these
2234 fields are typically used as input to the TLS PRF, and if this is your
2235 intended use, you should use the TLS PRF API that use the
2236 client/server random field directly. Suggested by Jouni Malinen
2237 <jkmaline@cc.hut.fi>.
2239 ** Internal type cleanups.
2240 The uint8, uint16, uint32 types have been replaced by uint8_t,
2241 uint16_t, uint32_t. Gnulib is used to guarantee the presence of
2242 correct types on platforms that lack them. The uint type have been
2243 replaced by unsigned.
2245 ** API and ABI modifications:
2246 New functions to invoke the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF):
2250 New functions to retrieve the session's client and server random values:
2251 gnutls_session_get_server_random
2252 gnutls_session_get_client_random
2254 New function, to perform TLS/IA handshake:
2257 New function to decide whether to do a TLS/IA handshake:
2258 gnutls_ia_handshake_p
2260 New functions to allocate a TLS/IA credential:
2261 gnutls_ia_allocate_client_credentials
2262 gnutls_ia_free_client_credentials
2263 gnutls_ia_allocate_server_credentials
2264 gnutls_ia_free_server_credentials
2266 New functions to handle the AVP callback:
2267 gnutls_ia_set_client_avp_function
2268 gnutls_ia_set_client_avp_ptr
2269 gnutls_ia_get_client_avp_ptr
2270 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_function
2271 gnutls_ia_set_server_avp_ptr
2272 gnutls_ia_get_server_avp_ptr
2274 New functions, to toggle TLS/IA application phases:
2275 gnutls_ia_require_inner_phase
2277 New function to mix session keys with inner secret:
2278 gnutls_ia_permute_inner_secret
2280 Low-level API (used internally by gnutls_ia_handshake):
2281 gnutls_ia_endphase_send
2285 New functions that can be used after successful TLS/IA negotiation:
2286 gnutls_ia_generate_challenge
2287 gnutls_ia_extract_inner_secret
2289 Enum type with TLS/IA modes:
2292 Enum type with TLS/IA packet types:
2295 Enum values for TLS/IA alerts:
2296 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_FAILURE
2297 GNUTLS_A_INNER_APPLICATION_VERIFICATION
2299 New error codes, to signal when an application phase has finished:
2300 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_IPHF_RECEIVED
2301 GNUTLS_E_WARNING_IA_FPHF_RECEIVED
2303 New error code to signal TLS/IA verify failure:
2304 GNUTLS_E_IA_VERIFY_FAILED
2306 * Version 1.3.1 (released 2005-12-08)
2308 ** Support for DHE-PSK cipher suites has been added.
2309 This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
2311 ** Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
2312 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
2314 ** Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
2315 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
2317 ** New function to set a X.509 private key and certificate pairs, and/or
2318 CRLs, from an PKCS#12 file, suggested by Emile van Bergen
2319 <emile@e-advies.nl>.
2321 The integrity of the PKCS#12 file is protected through a password
2322 based MAC; public-key based signatures for integrity protection are
2323 not supported. PKCS#12 bags may be encrypted using password derived
2324 symmetric keys, public-key based encryption is not supported. The
2325 PKCS#8 keys may be encrypted using passwords. The API use the same
2326 password for all operations. We believe that any more flexibility
2327 create too much complexity that would hurt overall security, but may
2328 add more PKCS#12 related APIs if real-world experience indicate
2331 ** gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8 now accept unencrypted PEM PKCS#8 keys,
2332 reported by Emile van Bergen <emile@e-advies.nl>.
2333 This will enable "certtool -k -8" to parse those keys.
2335 ** Certtool now generate keys in unencrypted PKCS#8 format for empty passwords.
2336 Use "certtool -p -8" and press press enter at the prompt. Earlier,
2337 certtool would have encrypted the key using an empty password.
2339 ** Certtool now accept --password for --key-info and encrypted PKCS#8 keys.
2340 Earlier it would have prompted the user for it, even if --password was
2343 ** Added self test of PKCS#8 parsing.
2344 Unencrypted and encrypted (pbeWithSHAAnd3-KeyTripleDES-CBC and
2345 pbeWithSHAAnd40BitRC2-CBC) formats are tested. The test is in
2348 ** API and ABI modifications:
2349 New function to set X.509 credentials from a PKCS#12 file:
2350 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file
2352 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t enum type:
2355 New API to return session data (basically same as gnutls_session_get_data):
2356 gnutls_session_get_data2
2358 New API to set PSK Diffie-Hellman parameters:
2359 gnutls_psk_set_server_dh_params
2361 * Version 1.3.0 (2005-11-15)
2363 ** Support for TLS Pre-Shared Key (TLS-PSK) ciphersuites have been added.
2364 This add several new APIs, see below. Read the updated manual for
2365 more information. A new self test "pskself" has been added, that will
2366 test this functionality.
2368 ** The session resumption data are now system independent.
2370 ** The code has been re-indented to conform to the GNU coding style.
2372 ** Removed the RIPEMD ciphersuites.
2374 ** Added a discussion of the internals of gnutls in manual.
2376 ** Fixes for Tru64 UNIX 4.0D that lack MAP_FAILED, from Albert Chin.
2378 ** Remove trailing comma in enums, for IBM C v6, from Albert Chin.
2380 ** Make sure config.h is included first in a few files, from Albert Chin.
2382 ** Don't use C++ comments ("//") as they are invalid, from Albert Chin.
2384 ** Don't install SRP programs and man pages if --disable-srp-authentication,
2387 ** API and ABI modifications:
2388 New gnutls_kx_algorithm_t key exchange type: GNUTLS_KX_PSK
2390 New gnutls_credentials_type_t credential type:
2393 New credential types:
2394 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t
2395 gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t
2397 New functions to allocate PSK credentials:
2398 gnutls_psk_allocate_client_credentials
2399 gnutls_psk_free_client_credentials
2400 gnutls_psk_free_server_credentials
2401 gnutls_psk_allocate_server_credentials
2403 New enum type for PSK key flags:
2404 gnutls_psk_key_flags
2406 New function prototypes for credential callback:
2407 gnutls_psk_client_credentials_function
2408 gnutls_psk_server_credentials_function
2410 New function to set PSK username and key:
2411 gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials
2413 New function to set PSK passwd file:
2414 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_file
2416 New function to extract PSK user in server:
2417 gnutls_psk_server_get_username
2419 New functions to set PSK callback:
2420 gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_function
2421 gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials_function
2423 Use size_t instead of int for output size parameter:
2424 gnutls_srp_base64_encode
2425 gnutls_srp_base64_decode
2427 * Version 1.2.11 (2006-05-11)
2428 - The function gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml is not supported any more, and
2429 return an internal error. The reason is that the function called
2430 internal libtasn1 functions which are no longer exported from
2432 - Updated libtasn1 requirement to 0.3.4 and refreshed internal mintiasn1.
2433 - Updated gnulib compatibility files.
2434 - Fixed _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_expiration_time and
2435 _gnutls_x509_get_raw_crt_activation_time to return (time_t)-1 on errors.
2436 - API and ABI modifications:
2437 No changes since last version.
2439 * Version 1.2.10 (2006-02-09)
2440 - Fix read out bounds bug in DER parser. Reported by Evgeny Legerov
2441 <admin@gleg.net>, and debugging help from Protover SSL.
2442 - Libtasn1 0.2.18 is now required (contains the previous bug fix).
2443 The included version has been updated too.
2444 - Fix gnutls-cli STARTTLS hang when SIGINT is sent too quickly, thanks to
2445 Otto Maddox <ottomaddox@fastmail.fm> and Nozomu Ando <nand@mac.com>.
2446 - Corrected a bug in certtool for 64 bit machines. Reported
2447 by Max Kellermann <max@duempel.org>.
2448 - Corrected bugs in gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl() and
2449 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust(), that caused memory corruption if
2450 more than one certificates were added. Report and patch by Max Kellermann.
2451 - Fixed bug in non-blocking gnutls_bye(). gnutls_record_send() will no
2452 longer invalidate a session if the underlying send fails, but it will
2453 prevent future writes. That is to allow reading the already received data.
2454 Patches and bug reports by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>
2456 * Version 1.2.9 (2005-11-07)
2457 - Documentation was updated and improved.
2458 - RSA-MD2 is now supported for verifying digital signatures.
2459 - Due to cryptographic advances, verifying untrusted X.509
2460 certificates signed with RSA-MD2 or RSA-MD5 will now fail with a
2461 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM verification output. For
2462 applications that must remain interoperable, you can use the
2463 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2 or GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
2464 flags when verifying certificates. Naturally, this is not
2465 recommended default behaviour for applications. To enable the
2466 broken algorithms, call gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags with the
2467 proper flag, to change the verification mode used by
2468 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
2469 - Make it possible to send empty data through gnutls_record_send,
2470 to align with the send(2) API.
2471 - Some changes in the certificate receiving part of handshake to prevent
2472 some possible errors with non-blocking servers.
2473 - Added numeric version symbols to permit simple CPP-based feature
2474 tests, suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
2475 - The (experimental) low-level crypto alternative to libgcrypt used
2476 earlier (Nettle) has been replaced with crypto code from gnulib.
2477 This leads to easier re-use of these components in other projects,
2478 leading to more review and simpler maintenance. The new configure
2479 parameter --with-builtin-crypto replace the old --with-nettle, and
2480 must be used if you wish to enable this functionality. See README
2481 under "Experimental" for more information. Internally, GnuTLS has
2482 been updated to use the new "Generic Crypto" API in gl/gc.h. The
2483 API is similar to the old crypto/gc.h, because the gnulib code were
2484 based on GnuTLS's gc.h.
2485 - Fix compiler warning in the "anonself" self test.
2486 - API and ABI modifications:
2487 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: Added 'const' to prototype in <gnutls/x509.h>.
2488 This doesn't reflect a change in behaviour,
2489 so we don't break backwards compatibility.
2490 GNUTLS_MAC_MD2: New gnutls_mac_algorithm_t value.
2491 GNUTLS_DIG_MD2: New gnutls_digest_algorithm_t value.
2492 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2,
2493 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5: New gnutls_certificate_verify_flags values.
2495 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify,
2496 gnutls_x509_crt_verify, or
2497 gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags.
2498 GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM: New gnutls_certificate_status_t value,
2499 used when broken signature algorithms
2500 is used (currently RSA-MD2/MD5).
2501 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
2502 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR,
2503 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH,
2504 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: New CPP symbols, indicating the GnuTLS
2505 version number, can be used for feature existence
2508 * Version 1.2.8 (2005-10-07)
2509 - Libgcrypt 1.2.2 is required to fix a bug for forking GnuTLS servers.
2510 - Don't install the auxilliary libexamples library used by the
2511 examples in doc/examples/ on "make install", report and tiny patch
2512 from Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
2513 - If you pass a X.509 CA or PGP trust database to the command line
2514 tool, it will now abort the connection if the server certificate
2515 validation fails. Use the parameter --insecure to continue even
2516 after certificate validation failures. Inspired from discussion
2517 with Alexander Kotelnikov <sacha@myxomop.com>.
2518 - The test for socklen_t has been moved to gnulib.
2519 - Link failures for duplicate or missing "program_name" symbol has been fixed,
2520 patch from Martin Lambers <marlam@marlam.de>.
2521 - The command line tool and the examples no longer uses mmap or bzero,
2522 to make them more portable, patch from Martin Lambers
2524 - Made the PKCS #12 API handle null passwords. Based on patch by
2525 Anton Altaparmakov <aia21@cam.ac.uk>.
2526 - The GTK-DOC manual should build with current released tools.
2527 (But a copy of the output is included, so the tools are not required.)
2528 - The inet_ntop function is now used through gnulib.
2529 - API and ABI modifications:
2530 No changes since last version.
2532 * Version 1.2.7 (2005-09-09)
2533 - The GNUTLS and GNUTLS-EXTRA libraries are now built with versioned symbols.
2534 - Certtool now complains when reading out-of-range X.509 serial
2535 numbers, suggested by Fran <e_agf@yahoo.es>.
2536 - Certtool now uses the readline library (when available) when reading
2537 X.509 serial numbers.
2538 - Fixed build problems in getpass on uClibc and Mingw32 platforms.
2539 - Fixed compile warning regarding socklen_t on Mingw32, reported by
2540 Martin Lambers <marlam@marlam.de>.
2541 - Fixed examples in doc/examples/, suggested by Fran <e_agf@yahoo.es>.
2542 - Gnulib is now used for the core library, enabling future code cleanups.
2543 - The gnutls-cli tool now use gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2,
2544 suggested by Daniel Stenberg <daniel@haxx.se>.
2545 - Doc fixes for gnutls_transport_set_push and gnutls_transport_set_pull.
2546 - Minilibtasn1 is now 0.2.17 (removed optional use of C99 macros).
2547 - Disable zlib support if zlib.h is not present.
2548 - A number of internal cleanups.
2549 - API and ABI modifications:
2550 No changes since last version.
2552 * Version 1.2.6 (2005-07-16)
2553 - MiniLZO updated to version 2.01 and moved to separate directory.
2554 - Collision between system LZO header files and MiniLZO header file
2555 fixed, reported by Matthias Urlichs <smurf@smurf.noris.de>.
2556 - Will now test for liblzo functionality in liblzo2 too, reported by
2557 Thomas Klausner <tk@giga.or.at>.
2558 - Minilibtasn1 is now 0.2.14 (no code changes).
2559 - Some code changes to avoid GTK-DOC warnings.
2560 - API and ABI modifications:
2561 No changes since last version.
2563 * Version 1.2.5 (2005-07-03)
2564 - More builddir != srcdir fixes, reported by Mike Castle
2565 <dalgoda@ix.netcom.com>.
2566 - Fixed off-by-one bug in the size parameter of gnutls_x509_crt_get*_dn,
2567 reported by Adam Langley <alangley@gmail.com>.
2568 - Corrected some stuff in minilzo detection. Pointed out by
2570 - MiniLZO updated to version 2.00.
2571 - gnutls_x509_crt_list_import now accept a DER formatted CRL.
2572 - API and ABI modifications:
2573 No changes since last version.
2575 * Version 1.2.4 (2005-05-28)
2576 - Corrected some bugs that could affect 64 bit systems.
2577 - Some corrections in the header files to include the prototype
2578 of memmem properly (affected 64 bit systems). Report and patch
2579 by Yoann Vandoorselaere <yoann@prelude-ids.org>.
2580 - Introduced the --fix-key option to certtool, which can be used to
2581 regenerate the (optional) parameters in a private key. It should
2582 be used together with --key-info.
2583 - Corrected a bug in certificate chain verification that could lead
2584 to marking a trusted chain as non trusted, if the last certificate in
2585 the chain was a self signed one.
2586 - Gnulib portability files were updated.
2587 - License were updated to reflect new FSF address.
2588 - API and ABI modifications:
2589 No changes since last version.
2591 * Version 1.2.3 (2005-04-28)
