* Version 3.1.3 (unreleased)
** libgnutls: Added support for the OCSP Certificate Status
extension.
** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2() will use the OCSP
certificate status extension in verification.
** libgnutls: Fixed the receipt of session tickets during session resumption.
Reported by danblack at http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?108146
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_ocsp_resp_check_crt() to check whether the OCSP
response corresponds to the given certificate.

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

* Version 3.1.1 (released 2012-09-02)
** gnutls-serv: Listens on IPv6. Patch by Bernhard R. Link.
** certtool: Changes in password handling of certtool.
Ask password when required and only if the '--password' option is not
given. If the '--password' option is given during key generation then
assume the PKCS #8 file format, instead of ignoring the password.
** tpmtool: No longer asks for key password in registered keys.
** libgnutls: Elliptic curve code was optimized by Ilya Tumaykin.
wmNAF is now used for point multiplication and other optimizations.
(the major part of the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
** libgnutls: The default pull_timeout_function only uses select
instead of a combination of select() and recv() to prevent issues
when used in stream sockets in some systems.
** libgnutls: Be tolerant in ECDSA signature violations (e.g. using
SHA256 with a SECP384 curve instead of SHA-384), to interoperate with
openssl.
** libgnutls: Fixed DSA and ECDSA signature generation in smart
cards. Thanks to Andreas Schwier from cardcontact.de for providing
me with ECDSA capable smart cards.

* Version 3.1.0 (released 2012-08-15)
** libgnutls: Added direct support for TPM as a cryptographic module
in gnutls/tpm.h. TPM keys can be used in functions accepting files
using URLs of the following types:
tpmkey:file=/path/to/file
tpmkey:uuid=7f468c16-cb7f-11e1-824d-b3a4f4b20343;storage=user
** libgnutls: Priority string level keywords can be combined.
For example the string "SECURE256:+SUITEB128" is now allowed.
** libgnutls: requires libnettle 2.5.
** libgnutls: Use the PKCS #1 1.5 encoding provided by nettle (2.5)
for encryption and signatures.
** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE to differentiate between
generic errors and signature verification errors in the verification
functions.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse() as a helper function
to simplify parsing in most PKCS #12 use cases.
** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file() adds
the whole certificate chain (if any) to the credentials structure, instead
of only the end-user certificate.
** libgnutls: Key import functions such as gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse()
and gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8(), return consistently
GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED if the input structure is encrypted but no
password was provided.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_handshake_set_timeout() a function that
allows to set the maximum time spent in a handshake.
** libgnutlsxx: Added session::set_transport_vec_push_function. Patch
by Alexandre Bique.

TPM.
** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-tls was split to --benchmark-tls-kx
and --benchmark-tls-ciphers
** certtool: generated PKCS #12 structures may hold more than one
private key. Patch by Lucas Fisher.
** certtool: Added option --null-password to generate/decrypt keys
that use a NULL password (in schemas that distinguish between NULL
an empty passwords).

is assumed to be a file that stores the pin. Based on patch
by David Smith.
** libgnutls: gnutls_record_check_pending() no longer
returns unprocessed data, and thus ensure the non-blocking
of the next call to gnutls_record_recv().
** libgnutls: Added strict tests in Diffie-Hellman and
SRP key exchange public keys.
** libgnutls: in ECDSA and DSA TLS 1.2 authentication be less

and key exchange.
** libgnutls: When session tickets are negotiated and used in a
session, a server will not store that session data into its cache.

The reason was that the code that auto-generated the man pages missed
many APIs and we couldn't fix it (volunteers welcome). See the info
manual or the GTK-DOC manual instead.

to perform signing or decryption. Can be set using
gnutls_privkey_import_ext()
** libgnutls: A certificate credentials structure can be
used with a gnutls_privkey_t and a gnutls_pcert_st

missing gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas().
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_x509_crq_verify() to allow
verification of the self signature in a certificate request.

** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
tabs are being skipped.
** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
TLS spec.
** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
and 3072 keys only).
** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
is unable to decode the key.
** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
* Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
only.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
a block of
#if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
gcry_control(...)
#endif
** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
New DN values:
jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
length over 1024.
** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
the OPRFI extension was removed.
** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
works even when resuming a session.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
PKCS #11 private keys.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
--pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
--pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
certificate.
** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
connections using a url such as:
pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

* Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
with strange OIDs.
** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
is unable to decode the key.
** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
on 2010-01-27.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
(Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
* Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
specified.
** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
Solves the issue discussed in:
and
.
Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
** of all subkeys.
Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
vectors as well.
** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
end of the handshake.
** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
(1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
(2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
now different than previous gnutls releases.
(3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

* Version 2.9.8 (released 2009-11-05)
** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
Reported by Tang Tong.
** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
** extension and certificate verify field.
This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
algorithms.
** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
** initial session data with the resumed session data.
** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
** encryption.
This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem
introduced for the v2.8.x branch in 2.7.6.
** certtool: Added the --pkcs-cipher option.
To explicitely specify the encryption algorithm to use.
** tests: Added "pkcs12_encode" self-test to check PKCS#12 functions.
** tests: Fix time bomb in chainverify self-test.
Reported by Andreas Metzler in
.
** tests: Fix expired cert in chainverify self-test.
** i18n: Vietnamese translation updated.
Thanks to Clytie Siddall.
** API and ABI modifications:

* Version 2.9.4 (released 2009-09-03)
** libgnutls: Client-side TLS 1.2 and SHA-256 ciphersuites now works.
The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
TLS 1.2).
** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken
OpenPGP hostname comparison.
** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
Reported by Howard Chu in
.
** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
error, to prevent this from happening again.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate: ADDED.
gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client: ADDED.
gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server: ADDED.
* Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger
for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
in
.
** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
in
.
** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
Tomas" in
.
** libgnutls: Return correct bit lengths of some MPIs.
gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson in
.
** libgnutls: Avoid internal error when invoked after GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
Report and patch by Tim Kosse in
and
.
** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
Marco d'Itri via Andreas Metzler
in .
** tests: Added new self-test pkcs12_s2k_pem to detect MPI bit length error.

** libgnutls: For CSRs, don't null pad integers for RSA/DSA value.
VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
and Boyan Kasarov .
Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
and Boyan Kasarov .

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

*** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.8 compared to GnuTLS 2.6.x
No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
and binary level.
The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
The symbols are:
_gnutls*
gnutls_asn1_tab
Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
incurring problems on the majority of applications.
If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
internal symbols.
Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected
functions are:
gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
The following symbols have been added to the library:
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_mem: ADDED
gnutls_x509_crl_get_authority_key_id: ADDED
gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_data: ADDED
gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_info: ADDED
gnutls_x509_crl_get_extension_oid: ADDED
gnutls_x509_crl_get_number: ADDED

** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
. This changes the semantics of
gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
interface.
** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
_gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
-export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
scripts.
** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
This should have been done in the last release.
** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
Reported by Peter Hendrickson in
.
** doc: Improved sections for the info manual.
We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command
line tools moved from 'Network Applications' to 'System
Administration'.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
* Version 2.7.7 (released 2009-04-20)
** libgnutls: Applied patch by Cedric Bail to add functions
gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash() and gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm().
** gnutls.pc: Add -ltasn1 to 'pkg-config --libs --static gnutls' output.
Reported by Andreas Metzler in
.
** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.8.
GnuTLS is also internally ready to be used with libtasn1 v2.0.
** doc: Fix build failure of errcodes/printlist.
Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy in
.
** i18n: The GnuTLS gettext domain is now 'libgnutls' instead of 'gnutls'.
It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.
Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
* Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
be used for chain verification.
** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
information. This avoids code duplication.
** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
behaviour.
** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
in
.
** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
the size of the result. Report by John Brooks .
** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
Reported by Tristan Hill .
** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
"Douglas E. Engert" in
.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
in
,
debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz and Daniel Kahn
Gillmor .
** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
Patch from David Marín Carreño in
.
** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
* Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
Reported by Michael Kiefer in
forwarded by
Andreas Metzler in
.
** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
real change in behaviour.
** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
Reported by Michael Weiser in
.
** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
Gagern . [CVE-2008-4989]

** libgnutls: Added functions to handle CRL extensions.
** libgnutls: Added functions to handle X.509 extensions in Certificate
Requests.
** libgnutls: Improved error string for GNUTLS_E_AGAIN.
Suggested by "Lavrentiev, Anton (NIH/NLM/NCBI) [C]" .
** certtool: Print and set CRL and CRQ extensions.

* Version 2.6.6 (released 2009-04-30)
** libgnutls: Corrected double free on signature verification failure.
Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil . See the advisory
for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-1] [CVE-2009-1415]
** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
Noticed when investigating the previous GNUTLS-SA-2009-1 problem. All
DSA keys generated using GnuTLS 2.6.x are corrupt. See the advisory
for more details. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
Reported by Romain Francoise . Before the
library did not check activation/expiration times on certificates, and
was documented as not doing so. We have realized that many
applications that use libgnutls, including gnutls-cli, fail to perform
proper checks. Implementing similar logic in all applications leads
to code duplication. Hence, we decided to check whether the current
time (as reported by the time function) is within the
activation/expiration period of certificates when verifying untrusted
certificates.
This changes the semantics of gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in
turn is used by gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2. We add two new
gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new error
condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED. We also
add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
behaviour.
More details about the vulnerabilities will be posted at
.
** gnutls-cli, gnutls-cli-debug: Fix AIX build problem.
Reported by LAUPRETRE François (P) in
.
** tests: Fix linking of tests/openpgp/keyring self-test.
Reported by Daniel Black in .
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.
GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED: ADDED.
GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED: ADDED.
GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
* Version 2.6.5 (released 2009-04-11)
** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
** GnuTLS no longer uses the libtasn1-config script to find libtasn1.
Libtasn1 0.3.4 or later is required. This is to align with the
upcoming libtasn1 v2.0 release that doesn't have a libtasn1-script.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.6.4 (released 2009-02-06)
** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
in
.
** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
the size of the result. Report by John Brooks .
** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
Reported by Tristan Hill .
** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
"Douglas E. Engert" in
.
** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
in
,
debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz and Daniel Kahn
Gillmor .
** libgnutls: Fix compile error with Sun CC.
Reported by Jeff Cai in
.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.6.3 (released 2008-12-12)
** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
Reported by Michael Kiefer in
forwarded by
Andreas Metzler in
.
** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
Reported by Michael Weiser in
.
** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.6.2 (released 2008-11-12)
** libgnutls: Fix crash in X.509 validation code for self-signed certificates.
The patch to fix the security problem GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 introduced a
problem for certificate chains that contained just one self-signed
certificate. Reported by Michael Meskes in
.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.6.1 (released 2008-11-10)
** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
Gagern . [CVE-2008-4989]
Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
to
** libgnutls: Add missing prototype for gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
Reported by Kevin Quick in
.
** libgnutls-extra: Protect internal symbols with static.
Fixes problem when linking certtool statically. Tiny patch from Aaron
Ucko .
** libgnutls-openssl: Fix patch against X509_get_issuer_name.
It incorrectly returned the subject DN instead of issuer DN in v2.6.0.
Thanks to Thomas Viehmann for report.
** certtool: Print a PKCS #8 key even if it is not encrypted.
** tests: Make tests compile when using internal libtasn1.
Patch by ludo@gnu.org (Ludovic Courtès).
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.6.0 (released 2008-10-06)
** libgnutls: Correct printing and parsing of IPv6 addresses.
** libgnutls-openssl: fix out of bounds access.
Problem in X509_get_subject_name and X509_get_issuer_name. Tiny patch
from Thomas Viehmann .
** certtool: Use inet_pton for parsing IPv6 addresses.
** Major changes compared to the v2.4 branch:
*** Added API to replace and update the crypto backend.
*** certtool: can add several subject alternative names via template file.
*** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
*** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name() was added that can
either set or append alternative names. It can also handle binary structures
such as IP addresses.
*** libgnutls: New function to set minimum acceptable SRP bits.
The function is gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
*** libgnutls: Add interface to deal with public key and signature algorithms.
The functions are called gnutls_pk_list, gnutls_pk_get_id,
gnutls_sign_list, and gnutls_sign_get_id.
*** libgnutls: New interfaces to get name of public key and signing algorithms.
The functions are gnutls_sign_get_name and gnutls_pk_get_name.
*** libgnutls: New API to get a string corresponding to a error symbol.
The function is gnutls_strerror_name.
*** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
*** from a private key.
The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw.
*** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
*** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
*** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
well.
*** libgnutls-extra: Add function to work with Libgcrypt in FIPS mode.
The function is gnutls_register_md5_handler. When libgcrypt is in
FIPS mode, MD5 is disabled, but TLS normally requires use of MD5 in
the PRF.
*** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.6
No functions have been removed or modified. The library should be
fully backwards compatible on both the source and binary level.
A new header file have been added. It contains
definitions related to replacing the internal crypto functionality.
All definitions and the header itself is experimental but supported.
We have realized that the symbols TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE
does not use the normal namespace. We have added GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE, but the old symbols are still defined.
The following functions have been added to libgnutls:
GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE
GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE
gnutls_crypto_bigint_register2
gnutls_crypto_cipher_register2
gnutls_crypto_digest_register2
gnutls_crypto_mac_register2

Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor .
** libgnutls: Remove code to import certificate chains in PKCS#7 format.
The code has not worked since v0.9.0 and apparently nobody has missed
it, so we decided to remove the code rather than fix it. If you have
old certificate chains stored in PKCS#7 format, you can convert them
to a list of PEM certificates by using 'certtool --p7-info'. Reported
by Christian Grothoff .
** opencdk: Parse (but not decrypt) encrypted secret keys.
Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor .
** libgnutls: Fix many warnings.
** Included copy of libtasn1 is upgraded to version 1.5.

Reported by Joe Orton in
.
** Doc fixes.
Reference to NIST SP 800-57 in the manual on key size recommendations.
Added 'Since:' tags to new APIs for gtk-doc.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.5.3 (released 2008-08-14)
** libgnutls: New API to set the public parameters in a certificate request
** from a private key.
The function is gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_rsa_raw. Inspired by
discussion with "Zach C." .
** libgnutls: New API to set a callback to extract TLS Finished data.
The function to register is gnutls_session_set_finished_function and
it takes a callback of the gnutls_finished_callback_func type.
** libgnutls: Drop final comma after GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL in enum.
Reported in .
** libgnutls: Fix namespace problem with TLS_MASTER_SIZE and TLS_RANDOM_SIZE.
The new names are GNUTLS_MASTER_SIZE and GNUTLS_RANDOM_SIZE. The old
names are mapped to the new names in compat.h. These mappings will
likely be removed more quickly than other mappings in that file due to
the namespace violation.
** libgnutlsxx: Make it build when SRP is disabled.
** doc: Add doxygen files in doc/doxygen/.
** API and ABI modifications:

* Version 2.5.2 (released 2008-07-08)
** libgnutls: Fix bug in gnutls_dh_params_generate2.
The prime and generator was swapped.
** libgnutls: New interface to register a new TLS extension handler.
The new function gnutls_ext_register can be used to register handlers
for specific TLS extension types. The callback functions have the new
types gnutls_ext_recv_func and gnutls_ext_send_func. A type to
classify TLS extensions, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t, has been added as
well.
** Move more code for TLS/IA extension from libgnutls to libgnutls-extra.
This was made possible by using the new gnutls_ext_register interface.
The TLS/IA functionality has only been supported through the
libgnutls-extra library, so it makes sense for the code to belong
there too.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_ext_recv_func: ADDED
gnutls_ext_send_func: ADDED
gnutls_ext_parse_type_t: ADDED
gnutls_ext_register: ADDED

No changes since last version.
* Version 2.5.0 (released 2008-07-02)
** Port fixes from v2.4.1 release, see below.

The header gnutls/crypto.h is now officially supported, and declares
the symbols below.
** Rewritten opencdk crypto backend, to use the gnutls internal one.
** Update gnulib and translations.
The gnulib gc crypto code has been removed since it was never finished
and is no longer even used. An internal non-libgcrypt crypto
implementation may be added in the future, but we'll decide that later
on.

* Version 2.4.0 (released 2008-06-19)
** Major changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
*** The OpenPGP sub-system has been improved and now supports subkeys.
*** The PSK sub-system has been improved and now supports password
*** derivation and PSK identity hints.
The password derivation algorithms support is documented in
draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt.
*** The certtool --inder and --outder has been replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
This aligns terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use DER encoding.
The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
*** Certtool now confirm passwords and changes permissions of private key files.
*** The default handshake size limit has been increased to 48kb.
It appears as if some valid handshakes are large due to sending many
CA certificates. (The earlier limit was 16kb.)
*** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
The main reason is that LZO compression in TLS is not standardized,
but license compatiblity issues with minilzo triggered us to make this
decision now.
*** Improvements for cross-compilation to Windows and OpenWRT.
*** The look of the GTK-DOC manual has been improved.
Major developer visible changes compared to the v2.2 branch:
*** Full OpenPGP support is part of libgnutls, licensed under the LGPL.
*** New APIs to access the raw X.509 Subject and Issuer DN's and
*** elements from the certificate credentials structure.
Thanks to Joe Orton.
*** New APIs to improve working with username/passwords and PSK.
*** Names of constants to affect certificate printing changed.
The constants are used for OpenPGP too, which the names didn't
reflect, so the following name change has been made:
Old name New name
GNUTLS_X509_CRT_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_FULL
GNUTLS_X509_CRT_ONELINE GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_ONELINE
GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL GNUTLS_CRT_PRINT_UNSIGNED_FULL
The old names will be mapped to the new names for some time.
*** The function gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_id has been renamed to
*** gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_key_id.
A compatibility mapping exists to avoid breaking API backwards
compatibility.
*** Replaced all uses of alloca with malloc and free.
*** We no longer build with -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
We have been unable to find a documented rationale for this practice.
*** Of course, many smaller fixes have been made, see the ChangeLog file.
*** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.4
All OpenPGP related functions have been moved from libgnutls-extra to
libgnutls, and several new functions have been added (see below).
Before making the release, we discussed whether moving functions from
libgnutls-extra to libgnutls would require us to increment the ABI
version, but the general opinion was that this would not be required.
All older functions continue to work the same. We are open to the
possibility that this decision will lead to problem on some platform,
and if it turns out that the Right Thing should have been to increment
the shared library version, we would need to release an update within
the 2.4.x branch that increments the shared library version.
This release adds the following functions:
gnutls_psk_client_get_hint
gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint
gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key
Used to get/set the PSK identity hint, and derive PSK keys from
passwords a'la netconf.
gnutls_x509_dn_deinit
gnutls_x509_dn_export
gnutls_x509_dn_import
gnutls_x509_dn_init
Used to handle X.509 Certificate DN's directly.
gnutls_hex2bin
Converts a data buffer to hex. Useful for handling PSK/SRP shared
secrets.
gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas
gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls
gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring
Functions for direct access to credential elements.
gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_auth_subkey
gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id
gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_dsa_raw
gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_pk_rsa_raw

The function gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_id is the same as the old
from gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id, see above.
The release also adds a new header file 'gnutls/crypto.h', however it
is currently not used.
** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: New APIs to retrieve fingerprint from OpenPGP subkeys.
Contributed by Daniel Kahn Gillmor .
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
gnutls_openpgp_privkey_get_subkey_fingerprint: ADDED.
* Version 2.3.15 (released 2008-06-15)
** Disable the openpgp-certs self-tests.
It results in failure under Wine and doesn't work on Debian buildds.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.14 (released 2008-06-11)
** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Changed OpenPGP verification behaviour.
An OpenPGP certificate is now only considered verified if all the user
IDs are verified.
** Examples: Make C++ example compile.
Earlier it may have failed with an unresolved reference to strlen.
** Documentation: Doc fix for gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_oid.
Reported by Sam Varshavchik .
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.13 (released 2008-06-07)
** libgnutls [OpenPGP]: Make OpenPGP handshakes work again.
** doc/: Add psktool to info index. Some minor cleanups.
** tests/: Added non-forking TLS handshake test, see tests/mini.c.
** tests/: Added libgcrypt.supp which can be used with valgrind.
The file suppresses the known libgcrypt memory leaks, so they aren't
printed when you run valgrind on the gnutls self-tests. Use it as
follows: valgrind --suppressions=libgcrypt.supp ./x509self or add
'--suppressions=/home/you/src/gnutls/tests/libgcrypt.supp' to your
~/.valgrindrc file.
** tests/: Reduce amount of debugging output by default.
Use --verbose for each test to get the full output.
** tests/: Fix memory leaks in several self-tests.
None of the self tests should be leaking memory when running valgrind
or similar tools. (Known exceptions are dhepskself, pskself, and
set_pkcs12_cred, which appear likely to be due to memory leaks in the
library.)
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.12 (released 2008-06-04)
** Merge gnutls_with_netconf branch.
*** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to retrieve PSK identity hint in client.
The function is gnutls_psk_client_get_hint.
*** libgnutls [PSK]: New API to set PSK identity hint in server.
The function is gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
*** libgnutls [PSK]: Support server key exchange with PSK identity hint.
In the client, the message is parsed and the application can use
gnutls_psk_client_get_hint to retrieve the hint. In the server, the
message is sent if the application has specified a PSK identity hint
using gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint.
*** libgnutls [PSK]: Support Netconf PSK key derivation.
The function gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key supports the PSK key
derivation as specified in draft-ietf-netconf-tls-02.txt. New self
test netconf-psk.c.
*** psktool: Support new --netconf-hint to generate PSK key from password.
Uses the Netconf algorithm to derive PSK key from password.
*** gnutls-serv: Support new --pskhint parameter to set PSK identity hint.
*** gnutls-cli: Always support PSK modes, through a callback.
The callback will derive a PSK key using Netconf algorithm. It will
print the PSK identity hint to help the user.
*** New PSK example client and server.
See doc/examples/ex-client-psk.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-psk.c.
** libgnutls: Fix gnutls_x509_crl_set_version on arm platforms.
The code didn't work properly on platforms where 'char' is unsigned,
when you set version 0. Reported by Laurence Withers
in
.
** libgnutls-openssl: added RAND_pseudo_bytes API.
Patch from Robert Millan .
** API and ABI modifications:
RAND_pseudo_bytes: ADDED to libgnutls-openssl.
gnutls_psk_client_get_hint: ADDED.
gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint: ADDED.
gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key: ADDED
* Version 2.3.11 (released 2008-05-20)
** Fix flaw in fix for GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3.
The flaw would result in incorrectly terminated sessions with the
error "Decryption has failed" when the server sends a small packet
(typically when the session is closed). Reported by Andreas Metzler
in
.
** Don't use gnulib headers when building C++ library.
Fixes builds under Windows.
** Make umask a requirement.
We don't know of any system that lacks it, even GNU CoreUtils use it
unconditionally.
** Update gnulib files.
Fixes a problem where it pulled in a replacement for memcmp under
MinGW, which caused the C++ example to fail to build.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.10 (released 2008-05-19)
** Added wide wildcard hostname matching.
Tiny patch by Jean-Philippe Garcia Ballester.
** Fix three security vulnerabilities. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1]
Thanks to CERT-FI for finding the bugs and providing detailed reports,
which allowed the bugs to be reproduced and fixed easily. Patches
developed by Simon Josefsson and Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. Any updates
with more details about these vulnerabilities will be added to
*** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-1]
*** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending invalid server name.
The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
cause gnutls to store more session resumption data than what was
allocated for, thus overwriting unallocated memory.
*** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-2]
*** libgnutls: Fix crash when sending repeated client hellos.
The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
triggers a null-pointer dereference.
*** [GNUTLS-SA-2008-1-3]
*** libgnutls: Fix crash in cipher padding decoding for invalid record lengths.
The crash can be triggered remotely before authentication, which can
lead to a Daniel of Service attack to disable the server. The bug
cause gnutls to read memory beyond the end of the received record.
** libgnutlsxx: Updated API according to patches from Eduardo
Villanueva Che (discussion at
)
** Use umask to restrict permissions to owner before creating a file.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.9 (released 2008-05-16)
** libgnutls: Fix build failures if SRP/OpenPGP is disabled.
Based on report and tiny patches from
, see
.
** libgnutls: Translation fixes.
** gnutls-cli: Fix so that PSK authentication works.
Also improve manual to give example for gnutls-cli PSK authentication.
** certtool: Encrypting a private key now require a confirmed password.
Before './certtool -k -8' would merely ask for a password once.
Reported by Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin
see
.
** certtool: When writing private keys to files, change permissions of file.
Now the file which the private key is saved to is chmod'ed 0600.
Reported by martin f krafft see
.
** guile: Fix -fgnu89-inline test.
** Removed --enable-profile-mode.
The code linked gnutls with the libfc project (Function Check) which
appears to have been stalled since around 2002.
** Clean up header file checks by ./configure.
** Update of gnulib files.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.8 (released 2008-04-29)
** libgnutls: Increase default handshake packet size limit to 48kb.
The old limit was 16kb and some servers send huge list of trusted CAs,
thus running into the limit. FYI, applications can further increase
this limit using gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length. Thanks to
Marc Haber and "Marc F. Clemente"
for reporting and providing test servers.
** libgnutls: Add new error code: GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE
Returned when the handshake data size is too large. Before
GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR was used, which could be confused with other
error situations.
** libgnutls: Hide definitions in crypto.h.
We have decided that the APIs defined in crypto.h are not stable
enough for v2.4, so don't use any of those functions.
** gnutls-cli: exit when hostname doesn't match certificate.
Use --insecure to avoid hostname comparison.
** certtool: --inder and --outder replaced by --inraw and --outraw.
The reason is to align terminology with OpenPGP, which doesn't use
DER. The old parameters will continue to work for some time.
** doc: Add section 'Index of new symbols in 2.4.0' to the GTK-DOC manual.
** doc: Many cosmetic fixes, to silence (most) gtk-doc warnings.
** Mingw32: Revert libgcrypt vasprintf work-around added in last release.
Use libgcrypt 1.4.1 or later when building on MinGW32, it removes the
vasprintf symbol from the libgcrypt library which caused problems.
** Update of gnulib files.
** tests: New self-test of crypto.h RNG code tests/crypto_rng.
** API and ABI modifications:
GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE: ADDED.
* Version 2.3.7 (released 2008-04-21)
** opencdk now properly sets the key usage bits into openpgp keys.
** gnutls-cli: Fix crash on TLS handshake failures.
Reported by "Marc F. Clemente" in Debian BTS #466477.
This is similar to .
** certtool: with --generate-request and newly generated keys, print the key.
** Build fixes for MinGW.
Missing rpl_fseeko symbol in lib/opencdk/. Better checks for linking
with -lws2_32 when needed. Use ASCII only isprint() when printing
X.509 certificate information, to avoid non-ASCII but printable
characters. Thanks to Massimo Gaspari for
reports.
** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.4.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.6 (released 2008-04-17)
** Make gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 set certificate request version if not set.
** Improve documentation for gnutls_x509_crq_sign2.
Based on report from "John Brooks" in
.
** tests/pathlen: run diff without parameters to improve portability.
Based on HPUX build hints in
.
** Don't use %e specifier with strftime, it doesn't work under Windows.
Reported by Massimo Gaspari in
.
** Remove all uses of gnutls_alloca/gnutls_afree.
Use normal gnutls_malloc instead. One reason is increased portability
to Windows, the other is that several of the uses may be unsafe
because the size of data allocated could be large. Reported by
Massimo Gaspari in
.
** Build Guile code with -fgnu89-inline only when supported.
Reported by Kris Karas in
.
** Several GTK-DOC related fixes.
** Clean up OpenCDK related code.
GnuTLS now requires its internal OpenCDK code rather than the external
GPL library OpenCDK. Unfortunately, we don't have resources to
maintain an external library (help welcome).
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.3.5 (released 2008-04-14)
** Build fix for MinGW and --disable-shared.
Reported by Massimo Gaspari in
.
** Document how to generate CRLs.
Suggested by "Rainer Gerhards" .
** Documented the --priority option to gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv.
** Several minor fixes in the OpenPGP interface.
Thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
** Fix fopen file descriptor leak in PSK server code.
Thanks to Laurence Withers , see
.
** Translations files not stored directly in git to avoid merge conflicts.
** New APIs to let applications replace the RNG used.
Update all RNG callers in the code to use the new interface.
** Guile code now built with -fgnu89-inline to fix inline semantic problem.
** Update gnulib files.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_crypto_rnd_register: ADDED

** Finish renaming of gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas etc.
They weren't renamed in the public header file.
** Added functions to register a cipher/mac/digest. This allows to
override the included ones.
** Fix a bunch of compiler warnings.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_crypto_cipher_st: ADDED
gnutls_crypto_mac_st: ADDED
gnutls_crypto_digest_st: ADDED

gnutls_crypto_mac_register: ADDED
gnutls_crypto_digest_register: ADDED
GNUTLS_E_CRYPTO_ALREADY_REGISTERED: ADDED
* Version 2.3.3 (released 2008-03-10)
** Fix build failure in libextra/gnutls_extra.c that needed opencdk.h.
Reported by Roman Bogorodskiy .
** No longer compiled using -D_REENTRANT -D_THREAD_SAFE.
We could not find any modern justification for enabling these flags by
default. If you know of some platform that needs one of the flags to
work properly, please let us know. (Actually introduced in v2.3.0 but
not documented until now.)
** Importing many CA certificates are now considerably faster.
This affect gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_mem,
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust, and
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file. The complexity was reduced
from O(2*n^2) to O(n). When adding 206 files containing 408
certificates, using gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file, the time
dropped from 40 seconds to 0.3 seconds. Thanks to Edgar Fuß for code
to trigger the problem. See also
.
** Clarify documentation for gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name
** to be explicit that it takes zero terminated data.
** gnutls-cli --print-cert now print PKCS#3 format Diffie-Hellman parameters.
** Documentation fixes for the GTK-DOC manual.
** Fix compilation error related to __FUNCTION__ on some systems.

gnutls_x509_dn_export: ADDED
* Version 2.3.1 (released 2008-02-21)
** OpenPGP support merged into libgnutls and is now licensed under LGPL.
The included copy of OpenCDK has been stripped down and re-licensed
under the LGPL.
** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
Thanks to Laurence Withers .

export elements from the certificate credentials structure. Based on
suggestion from Joe Orton.
** Doc fixes.
Clarify that srp_base64 is not the same as normal base64.
** Fix non-portable use of brace expansion in makefiles.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_certificate_export_x509_cas: ADDED
gnutls_certificate_export_x509_crls: ADDED
gnutls_certificate_export_openpgp_keyring: ADDED

old GNUTLS_X509_CRT_UNSIGNED_FULL.
* Version 2.3.0 (released 2008-01-08)
** LZO compression is now disabled by default.
The reason is that LZO compression is not standardized in TLS. If you
wish to experiment with it, you will have to supply --with-lzo when
invoking ./configure. The internal copy of minilzo is no longer
included with GnuTLS, so you will need to install liblzo or liblzo2 on
your system to have --with-lzo to be effective.
** More than one server name field is now sent to the server properly.
Thanks to mark.phillips@virgin.net.
** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
in a callback friendly way.
** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
** Updated translations.
** Update gnulib files.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.

** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.2.2 (released 2008-02-21)
** Cipher priority string handling now handle strings that starts with NULL.
Thanks to Laurence Withers .
** Corrected memory leaks in session resuming and DHE ciphersuites. Reported
by Daniel Stenberg.
** Increased the default certificate verification chain limits and allowed
for checks without limitation.
** Corrected the behaviour of gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()
and gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name() to not null terminate binary
strings and return the proper size.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.2.1 (released 2008-01-17)
** Prevent linking libextra against previously installed libgnutls.
Tiny patch from "Alon Bar-Lev" , see
.
** Fixes the post_client_hello_function(). The extensions are now parsed
in a callback friendly way.
** Fix for certificate selection in servers with certificate callbacks.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.2.0 (released 2007-12-14)
** Update internal copy of libtasn1 to version 1.2.
** Certtool --verify-chain now handle inputs larger than 64kb.
This fixes the self-test "rsa-md5-collision" under MinGW+Wine with
recent versions of libgcrypt. The problem was that Wine with the
libgcrypt RNG generates huge amounts of debugging output.
** Translation updates.
Added Dutch translation. Updated Polish and Swedish translation.
** Major changes compared to the v2.0 branch:
*** SRP support aligned with newly published RFC 5054.
*** OpenPGP support aligned with newly published RFC 5081.
*** Support for DSA2 keys.
*** Support for Camellia cipher.
*** Support for Opaque PRF Input extension.
*** PKCS#8 parser now handle DSA keys.
*** Change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 for command-line tools, libgnutls-extra, etc.
Notice that liblzo2 2.02 is licensed under GPLv2 only. Earlier
versions, such as 2.01 which is included with GnuTLS, is available
under GPLv2 or later. If this incompatibility causes problems, we
recommend you to disable LZO using --without-lzo. LZO compression is
not a standard TLS compression algorithm, so the impact should be
minimal.
*** Functions for disabling record protocol padding.
Works around bugs on Nokia/Ericsson phones.
*** New functions gnutls_priority_set() for setting cipher priorities easily.
Priorities like "COMPAT" also enables other work arounds, such as
disabling padding.
*** Other minor improvements and bug fixes.
** Backwards incompatible API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.2
To adapt to changes in the TLS extension specifications for OpenPGP
and SRP, the GnuTLS API had to be modified. This means breaking the
API and ABI backwards compatibility. That is something we try to
avoid unless it is necessary. We decided to also remove the already
deprecated stub functions for X.509 to XML conversion and TLS
authorization (see below) when we had the opportunity.
Generally, most applications does not need to be modified. Just
re-compile them against the latest GnuTLS release, and it should work
fine.
Applications that use the OpenPGP or SRP features needs to be
modified. Below is a list of the modified APIs and discussion of what
the minimal things you need to modify in your application to make it
work with GnuTLS 2.2.
Note that GnuTLS 2.2 also introduces new APIs -- such as
gnutls_set_priority() that is superior to
gnutls_set_default_priority() -- that you may want to start using.
However, using those new APIs is not required to use GnuTLS 2.2 since
the old functions continue are still supported. This text only
discuss what you minimally have to modify.
*** XML related changes
The function `gnutls_x509_crt_to_xml' has been removed. It has been
deprecated and only returned an error code since GnuTLS version
1.2.11. Nobody has complained, so users doesn't seem to miss the
functionality. We don't know of any other library to convert X.509
certificates into XML format, but we decided (long ago) that GnuTLS
isn't the right place for this kind of functionality. If you want
help to find some other library to use here, please explain and
discuss your use case on help-gnutls@gnu.org.
*** TLS Authorization related changes
Everything related to TLS authorizations have been removed, they were
only stub functions that returned an error code:
GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_AUTHZ_DATA
gnutls_authz_data_format_type_t
gnutls_authz_recv_callback_func
gnutls_authz_send_callback_func
gnutls_authz_enable
gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert
gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion
gnutls_authz_send_x509_attr_cert_url
gnutls_authz_send_saml_assertion_url
*** SRP related changes
The callback gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function has a new
prototype, and its semantic has changed. You need to rewrite the
callback, see the updated function documentation and SRP example code
(doc/examples/ex-client-srp.c and doc/examples/ex-serv-srp.c) for more
information.
The alert codes GNUTLS_A_MISSING_SRP_USERNAME and
GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME are no longer used by the SRP
specification, instead the GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY alert is
used. There are #define's to map the old names to the new. You may
run into problems if you have a switch-case with cases for both SRP
alerts, since they are now mapped to the same value. The solution is
to drop the SRP alerts from such switch cases, as they are now
deprecated in favor of GNUTLS_A_UNKNOWN_PSK_IDENTITY.
*** OpenPGP related changes
The function `gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyserver' have been
removed. There is no replacement functionality inside GnuTLS. If you
need keyserver functionality, consider using the GnuPG tools.
All functions, types, and error codes related to OpenPGP trustdb
format have been removed. The trustdb format is a non-standard
GnuPG-specific format, and we recommend you to use key rings instead.
The following have been removed:
gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_trustdb
gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_init
gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_deinit
gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_import
gnutls_openpgp_key_verify_trustdb
gnutls_openpgp_trustdb_t
GNUTLS_E_OPENPGP_TRUSTDB_VERSION_UNSUPPORTED
The following functions has an added parameter of the (new) type
`gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t'. The type specify the format of the data
(binary or base64). The functions are:
gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_file
gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_key_mem
gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_mem
gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_keyring_file
To improve terminology and align with the X.509 interface, some
functions have been renamed. Compatibility mappings exists. The old
and new names of the affected functions and types are:
Old name New name
gnutls_openpgp_key_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_t
gnutls_openpgp_key_fmt_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_fmt_t
gnutls_openpgp_key_status_t gnutls_openpgp_crt_status_t
GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT
GNUTLS_OPENPGP_KEY_FINGERPRINT GNUTLS_OPENPGP_CERT_FINGERPRINT
gnutls_openpgp_key_init gnutls_openpgp_crt_init
gnutls_openpgp_key_deinit gnutls_openpgp_crt_deinit
gnutls_openpgp_key_import gnutls_openpgp_crt_import
gnutls_openpgp_key_export gnutls_openpgp_crt_export
gnutls_openpgp_key_get_key_usage gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_key_usage
gnutls_openpgp_key_get_fingerprint gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_fingerprint

gnutls_openpgp_key_get_name gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_name
gnutls_openpgp_key_get_version gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_version
gnutls_openpgp_key_get_creation_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_creation_time
gnutls_openpgp_key_get_expiration_time gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_expiration_time
gnutls_openpgp_key_get_id gnutls_openpgp_crt_get_id
gnutls_openpgp_key_check_hostname gnutls_openpgp_crt_check_hostname

** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.1.8 (released 2007-12-10)
** The GPL version has been changed from version 2 to version 3.
This affects the self-tests, command-line tools, the libgnutls-extra
library, the relevant guile parts, and the build environment.
** Added gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2().
** Corrected a segfault when setting an empty gnutls_priority_t
at gnutls_priority_set().
** Use gettext 0.17 which updates m4/lib-*.m4 macros.
Fixes a problem with spurious -L/usr/lib additions.
** API and ABI modifications:

accept a string to indicate preferences of ciphersuite parameters.
** gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv now have a --priority option to set
the priority string.
** The gnutls_*_convert_priority() functions were deprecated by
the gnutls_priority_set() and gnutls_priority_set_direct().
** Internal copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.6.

* Version 2.1.6 (released 2007-11-15)
** Corrected bug in decompression of expanded compression data.
** Added the --to-p8 option to certtool to convert private keys
to PKCS #8 keys.
** Introduced the GNUTLS_E_BASE64_UNEXPECTED_HEADER_ERROR error code.
** gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_* can now read PKCS #8 unencrypted
private keys.
** Fixed GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM vs GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM.
During the 2.1.x series the GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM error code
was renamed to GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM, unfortunately without being
documented. This caused some problems (e.g., debian #450854). To
avoid backwards compatibility problems, this release revert this
change, so that GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM works just like it has
done in GnuTLS 2.0.x and earlier, and add a new error code
GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM.
** Fixes several gtk-doc warnings.
** API and ABI modifications:
GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.
GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_HASH_ALGORITHM: CHANGED.

** Added the --v1 option to certtool, to allow generating X.509
version 1 certificates.
** certtool: Add option --disable-quick-random to enable the old behaviour
of using /dev/random to generate keys.
** Added priority functions that accept strings.
** Added gnutls_set_default_priority2() which accepts a flag to indicate
priorities preferences.
** Added gnutls_record_disable_padding() to allow servers talking to
buggy clients that complain if the TLS 1.0 record protocol padding is
used.
** Introduced gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode() to allow enabling
all supported compatibility options (like disabling padding).
** The gnutls_certificate_set_openpgp_* functions were modified to include
the format. This makes the interface consistent with the x509 functions.

* Version 2.1.3 (released 2007-10-17)
** TLS authorization support removed.
This technique may be patented in the future, and it is not of crucial
importance for the Internet community. After deliberation we have
concluded that the best thing we can do in this situation is to
encourage society not to adopt this technique. We have decided to
lead the way with our own actions.
** Re-enabled the 256 bit ciphers in the default priorities.

** Removed all the trustdb code from openpgp authentication.
We now use only the well-specified keyrings.
** The 256 bit ciphers are not enabled in the default priorities.
** Added support for DSA2 using libgcrypt 1.3.0.
** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
** Removed all the xml related stubs and functions.
** Added capability to set a callback after the client hello is received
by the server in order to adjust parameters before the handshake.
** SRP was corrected to adhere to the latest draft (published soon as RFC)
** Corrected bug which did not allow a server to run without supporting
certificates.
** Updated the DN parser which now prints wrongly decoded values as hex
strings.

* Version 2.1.1 (released 2007-09-24)
** Added support for Camellia cipher, thanks to Yoshisato YANAGISAWA.
Camellia is only enabled in GnuTLS if the installed libgcrypt has been
compiled with Camellia support. See the libgcrypt documentation on
how to enable it. Unconditionally disable it using the configure
option --disable-camellia. Fixes #1.
** Properly document in the NEWS file the API change in the last release.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.1.0 (released 2007-09-20)
** Support for draft-rescorla-tls-opaque-prf-input-00.txt.
The support is disabled by default. Since no value has been allocated
by the IANA for this extension yet, you will need to provide one
yourself by invoking './configure --enable-opaque-prf-input=42'.
Fixes #2.
** Example code: Fix compilation flaw under MinGW.
** API and ABI modifications:
gnutls_oprfi_callback_func: ADD, new typedef function prototype.

** certtool: Fixed data corruption when using --outder.
** Fix configure-time Guile detection.
** API and ABI modifications:
GNUTLS_SUPPLEMENTAL_USER_MAPPING_DATA: ADDED. To avoid that the
gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t enum type becomes empty.
* Version 2.0.1 (released 2007-09-20)
** New directory doc/credentials/ with test credentials.
This collects the test credentials from the web page and from src/.
The script gnutls-http-serv has also been moved to that directory.
** Update SRP extension type and cipher suite with official IANA values.
This breaks backwards compatibility with SRP in older versions of
GnuTLS, but this is intentional to speed up the adoption of the
official values. The old values we used were incorrect.
** Guile: Fix `x509-certificate-dn-oid'
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 2.0.0 (released 2007-09-04)
** Included copy of Libtasn1 upgraded to version 1.1.
** Disable building of some examples if anonymous ciphers are disabled.
** Don't build examples for disabled features.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 1.7.19 (released 2007-08-27)
** Fix gnutls_error_is_fatal so that positive "errors" are non-critical.
This solves connection problems in mutt, see
.
** Update gnulib files.
In particular, the getpass module -- with its dependencies on getline,
getdelim, fseeko etc -- where moved from the lgl/ (used by the core
library) directory to the gl/ directory (only used by the command line
tools). The reason is that getpass is now only used by the
command-line tools, and reducing the number of gnulib modules linked
to the core library helps portability and reduces size.
** Fix warnings.
** Disable building of PGP examples if PGP is disabled.
** Included copy of OpenCDK upgraded to version 0.6.4.
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 1.7.18 (released 2007-08-16)
** Install images for the info manual.
This has a side effect of renaming the images. See
for
discussions on the approach chosen.
** Fix pointer mix to variables of different size.
Patch extracted from
.
** Fix warnings during build.
Thanks to Andreas Metzler .
** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
* Version 1.7.17 (released 2007-08-15)
** New functions to perform external signing.
Set the signing callback function (of the gnutls_sign_func prototype)
using the gnutls_sign_callback_set function. In the callback, you may
find the new functions gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash and
gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sign_hash useful. A new function
gnutls_sign_callback_get is also added, to retrieve the function
pointer. Thanks to "Alon Bar-Lev" for
comments and testing.
** New self test of client and server authenticated X.509 TLS sessions.
See tests/x509self.c and tests/x509signself.c. The latter also tests
the new external signing callback interface.
** New errors GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MIN..GNUTLS_E_APPLICATION_ERROR_MAX.
These two actually describe the outer limits of a range of error codes
reserved to the application. All of the errors are treated as fatal
by the library (it has to since it doesn't know the semantics of the
error codes). This can be useful in callbacks, to signal some
application-specific error condition, which will usually eventually
cause some gnutls API to return the same error code as the callback,
which then can be inspected by the application. Note that error codes
are negative.
** gnutls_set_default_priority now disable TLS 1.2 by default.
The RFC is not released yet, and we're approaching a major release so
let's not enable it just yet.
** Fix namespace so that gnutls_*_t is used consistently.
Before, many places in the GnuTLS code used the old deprecated type
names without the '_t' suffix.
** Build fixes for Guile code.
Patch from Ludovic Courtes .
** More documentation fixes.
In particular, the section headings were modified for casing. By
