Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ *) Compute ECC cofactors if not provided during EC_GROUP construction. Before
+ this change, EC_GROUP_set_generator would accept order and/or cofactor as
+ NULL. After this change, only the cofactor parameter can be NULL. It also
+ does some minimal sanity checks on the passed order.
+ (CVE-2019-1547)
+ [Billy Bob Brumley]

*) Early start up entropy quality from the DEVRANDOM seed source has been
improved for older Linux systems. The RAND subsystem will wait for
/dev/random to be producing output before seeding from /dev/urandom.
