6 * Version 3.4.0 (unreleased)
8 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 3.0.
10 ** libgnutls: Use getrandom() or getentropy() when available. That
11 avoids the complexity of file descriptor handling and the issues with
12 applications closing all open file descriptors.
14 ** libgnutls: Use pthread_atfork() to detect fork.
16 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions to obtain information on PKCS #8
19 ** libgnutls: Added API to utilize system specific private keys in
20 "gnutls/system-keys.h". It is currently restricted to windows CNG
23 ** libgnutls: priority strings VERS-TLS-ALL and VERS-DTLS-ALL are
24 restricted to the corresponding protocols only, and the VERS-ALL
25 string is introduced to catch all possible protocols.
27 ** libgnutls: SSL 3.0 is no longer included in the default priorities
28 list. It has to be explicitly enabled, e.g., with a string like
29 "NORMAL:+VERS-SSL3.0".
31 ** libgnutls: ARCFOUR (RC4) is no longer included in the default priorities
32 list. It has to be explicitly enabled, e.g., with a string like
33 "NORMAL:+ARCFOUR-128".
35 ** libgnutls: Use nettle's PBKDF2 implementation.
37 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname() and friends will use
38 RFC6125 comparison of hostnames. That introduces a dependency on libidn.
40 ** libgnutls: When printing a certificate request print the signature
43 ** libgnutls: Added support for RFC7366 (taking into account its
44 errata text). This is enabled by default.
46 ** libgnutls: The gnutls_handshake() process will enforce a timeout by
49 ** libgnutls: The priority string EXPORT was removed.
51 ** libgnutls: If a key purpose (extended key usage) is specified for verification,
52 it is applied into intermediate certificates. The verification result
53 GNUTLS_CERT_PURPOSE_MISMATCH is also introduced.
55 ** libgnutls: Added support for the extended master secret
56 (triple-handshake fix) following draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-02.
58 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-CCM.
60 ** libgnutls: Added a new simple and hard to misuse AEAD API (crypto.h).
62 ** libgnutls: When gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2() is used in
63 combination with PKCS #11, or TPM URLs, it will utilize the provided
64 password as PIN if required. That removes the requirement for the
65 application to set a callback for PINs in that case.
67 ** libgnutls: Certificate chains which are provided to gnutls_certificate_credentials_t
68 will automatically be sorted instead of failing with GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_LIST_UNSORTED.
70 ** libgnutls: Added the ability to register application specific URL
71 types, which express certificates and keys using gnutls_register_custom_url().
73 ** libgnutls-openssl: it is no longer built by default.
75 ** certtool: Added --p8-info option, which will print PKCS #8 information
76 even if the password is not available.
78 ** certtool: --key-info option will print PKCS #8 encryption information
81 ** certtool: Added the --key-id and --fingerprint options.
83 ** certtool: --p12-info option will print PKCS #12 MAC and cipher information
86 ** certtool: it will print the A-label (ACE) names in addition to UTF-8.
88 ** gnutls-cli: added option --priority-list.
90 ** guile: Deprecated priority API has been removed. The old priority API,
91 which had been deprecated for some time, is now gone; use 'set-session-priorities!'
94 ** guile: Remove RSA parameters and related procedures. This API had been
97 ** guile: Fix compilation on MinGW. Previously only the static version of the
98 'guile-gnutls-v-2' library would be built, preventing dynamic loading from Guile.

189 * Version 3.3.6 (released 2014-07-23)
191 ** libgnutls: Use inet_ntop to print IP addresses when available
193 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname and friends will also check
194 IP addresses, and match documented behavior. Reported by David Woodhouse.
196 ** libgnutls: DSA key generation in FIPS140-2 mode doesn't allow 1024
199 ** libgnutls: fixed issue in gnutls_pkcs11_reinit() which prevented tokens
200 being usable after a reinitialization.
202 ** libgnutls: fixed PKCS #11 private key operations after a fork.
204 ** libgnutls: fixed PKCS #11 ECDSA key generation.
206 ** libgnutls: The GNUTLS_CPUID_OVERRIDE environment variable can be used to
207 explicitly enable/disable the use of certain CPU capabilities. Note that CPU
208 detection cannot be overriden, i.e., VIA options cannot be enabled on an Intel
209 CPU. The currently available options are:
210 0x1: Disable all run-time detected optimizations
214 0x100000: Enable VIA padlock
215 0x200000: Enable VIA PHE
216 0x400000: Enable VIA PHE SHA512
218 ** libdane: added dane_query_to_raw_tlsa(); patch by Simon Arlott.
220 ** p11tool: use GNUTLS_SO_PIN to read the security officer's PIN if set.
222 ** p11tool: ask for label when one isn't provided.
224 ** p11tool: added --batch parameter to disable any interactivity.
226 ** p11tool: will not implicitly enable so-login for certain types of
227 objects. That avoids issues with tokens that require different login
230 ** certtool/p11tool: Added the --curve parameter which allows to explicitly
231 specify the curve to use.
233 ** API and ABI modifications:
234 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_dir: Added
235 gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_dir: Added
238 * Version 3.3.5 (released 2014-06-26)
240 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_record_recv_packet() and gnutls_packet_deinit().
241 These functions provide a variant of gnutls_record_recv() that avoids
242 the final memcpy of data.
244 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crl_iter_crt_serial() was added as a
245 faster variant of gnutls_x509_crl_get_crt_serial() when coping with
246 very large structures.
248 ** libgnutls: When the decoding of a printable DN element fails, then treat
249 it as unknown and print its hex value rather than failing. That works around
250 an issue in a TURKTRST root certificate which improperly encodes the
251 X520countryName element.
253 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_file() will return the number
254 of certificates present in a PKCS #11 token when loading it.
256 ** libgnutls: Allow the post client hello callback to put the handshake on
257 hold, by returning GNUTLS_E_AGAIN or GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED.
259 ** certtool: option --to-p12 will now consider --load-ca-certificate
261 ** certtol: Added option to specify the PKCS #12 friendly name on command
264 ** p11tool: Allow marking a certificate copied to a token as a CA.
266 ** API and ABI modifications:
267 GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_CA: Added
268 gnutls_x509_crl_iter_deinit: Added
269 gnutls_x509_crl_iter_crt_serial: Added
270 gnutls_record_recv_packet: Added
271 gnutls_packet_deinit: Added
272 gnutls_packet_get: Added
275 * Version 3.3.4 (released 2014-05-31)
277 ** libgnutls: Updated Andy Polyakov's assembly code. That prevents a
278 crash on certain CPUs.
280 ** API and ABI modifications:
281 No changes since last version.
284 * Version 3.3.3 (released 2014-05-30)
286 ** libgnutls: Eliminated memory corruption issue in Server Hello parsing.
287 Issue reported by Joonas Kuorilehto of Codenomicon.
289 ** libgnutls: gnutls_global_set_mutex() was modified to operate with the
290 new initialization process.
292 ** libgnutls: Increased the maximum certificate size buffer
293 in the PKCS #11 subsystem.
295 ** libgnutls: Check the return code of getpwuid_r() instead of relying
296 on the result value. That avoids issue in certain systems, when using
297 tofu authentication and the home path cannot be determined. Issue reported
300 ** libgnutls-dane: Improved dane_verify_session_crt(), which now attempts to
301 create a full chain. This addresses points from https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?108552
303 ** gnutls-cli: --dane will only check the end certificate if PKIX validation
306 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-soft-ciphers has been removed. That option cannot
307 be emulated with the implicit initialization of gnutls.
309 ** certtool: Allow multiple organizations and organizational unit names to
310 be specified in a template.
312 ** certtool: Warn when invalid configuration options are set to a template.
314 ** ocsptool: Include path in ocsp request. This resolves #108582
315 (https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?108582), reported by Matt McCutchen.
317 ** API and ABI modifications:
318 gnutls_credentials_get: Added
321 * Version 3.3.2 (released 2014-05-06)
323 ** libgnutls: Added the 'very weak' certificate verification profile
324 that corresponds to 64-bit security level.
326 ** libgnutls: Corrected file descriptor leak on random generator
329 ** libgnutls: Corrected file descriptor leak on PSK password file
330 reading. Issue identified using the Codenomicon TLS test suite.
332 ** libgnutls: Avoid deinitialization if initialization has failed.
334 ** libgnutls: null-terminate othername alternative names.
336 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_trust_list_get_issuer() will operate correctly
337 on a PKCS #11 trust list.
339 ** libgnutls: Several small bug fixes identified using valgrind and
340 the Codenomicon TLS test suite.
342 ** libgnutls-dane: Accept a certificate using DANE if there is at least one
343 entry that matches the certificate. Patch by simon [at] arlott.org.
345 ** libgnutls-guile: Fixed compilation issue.
347 ** certtool: Allow exporting a CRL on DER format.
349 ** certtool: The ECDSA keys generated by default use the SECP256R1 curve
350 which is supported more widely than the previously used SECP224R1.
352 ** API and ABI modifications:
353 GNUTLS_PROFILE_VERY_WEAK: Added
356 * Version 3.3.1 (released 2014-04-19)
358 ** libgnutls: Enforce more strict checks to heartbeat messages
359 concerning padding and payload. Suggested by Peter Dettman.
361 ** libgnutls: Allow decoding PKCS #8 files with ECC parameters
364 ** libgnutls: Several small bug fixes found by coverity.
366 ** libgnutls: The conditionally available self-test functions
367 were moved to self-test.h.
369 ** libgnutls: Fixed issue with the check of incoming data when two
370 different recv and send pointers have been specified. Reported and
371 investigated by JMRecio.
373 ** libgnutls: Fixed issue in the RSA-PSK key exchange, which would
374 result to illegal memory access if a server hint was provided. Reported
377 ** libgnutls: Fixed client memory leak in the PSK key exchange, if a
378 server hint was provided.
380 ** libgnutls: Corrected the *get_*_othername_oid() functions.
382 ** API and ABI modifications:
383 No changes since last version.
386 * Version 3.3.0 (released 2014-04-10)
388 ** libgnutls: The initialization of the library was moved to a
389 constructor. That is, gnutls_global_init() is no longer required
390 unless linking with a static library or a system that does not
391 support library constructors.
393 ** libgnutls: static libraries are not built by default.
395 ** libgnutls: PKCS #11 initialization is delayed to first usage.
396 That avoids long delays in gnutls initialization due to broken PKCS #11
399 ** libgnutls: The PKCS #11 subsystem is re-initialized "automatically"
400 on the first PKCS #11 API call after a fork.
402 ** libgnutls: certificate verification profiles were introduced
403 that can be specified as flags to verification functions. They
404 are enumerations in gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t
405 and can be converted to flags for use in a verification function
406 using GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS().
408 ** libgnutls: Added the ability to read system-specific initial
409 keywords, if they are prefixed with '@'. That allows a compile-time
410 specified configuration file to be used to read pre-configured priority
411 strings from. That can be used to impose system specific policies.
413 ** libgnutls: Increased the default security level of priority
414 strings (NORMAL and PFS strings require at minimum a 1008 DH prime),
415 and set a verification profile by default. The LEGACY keyword is
416 introduced to set the old defaults.
418 ** libgnutls: Added support for the name constraints PKIX extension.
419 Currently only DNS names and e-mails are supported (no URIs, IPs
422 ** libgnutls: Security parameter SEC_PARAM_NORMAL was renamed to
423 SEC_PARAM_MEDIUM to avoid confusion with the priority string NORMAL.
425 ** libgnutls: Added new API in x509-ext.h to handle X.509 extensions.
426 This API handles the X.509 extensions in isolation, allowing to parse
427 similarly formatted extensions stored in other structures.
429 ** libgnutls: When generating DSA keys the macro GNUTLS_SUBGROUP_TO_BITS
430 can be used to specify a particular subgroup as the number of bits in
431 gnutls_privkey_generate; e.g., GNUTLS_SUBGROUP_TO_BITS(2048, 256).
433 ** libgnutls: DH parameter generation is now delegated to nettle.
434 That unfortunately has the side-effect that DH parameters longer than
435 3072 bits, cannot be generated (not without a nettle update).
437 ** libgnutls: Separated nonce RNG from the main RNG. The nonce
438 random number generator is based on salsa20/12.
440 ** libgnutls: The buffer alignment provided to crypto backend is
441 enforced to be 16-byte aligned, when compiled with cryptodev
442 support. That allows certain cryptodev drivers to operate more
445 ** libgnutls: Return error when a public/private key pair that doesn't
446 match is set into a credentials structure.
448 ** libgnutls: Depend on p11-kit 0.20.0 or later.
450 ** libgnutls: The new padding (%NEW_PADDING) experimental TLS extension has
451 been removed. It was not approved by IETF.
453 ** libgnutls: The experimental xssl library is removed from the gnutls
456 ** libgnutls: Reduced the number of gnulib modules used in the main library.
458 ** libgnutls: Added priority string %DISABLE_WILDCARDS.
460 ** libgnutls: Added the more extensible verification function
461 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers(), that allows checking, in addition
462 to a peer's DNS hostname, for the key purpose of the end certificate
463 (via PKIX extended key usage).
465 ** certtool: Timestamps for serial numbers were increased to 8 bytes,
466 and in batch mode to 12 (appended with 4 random bytes).
468 ** certtool: When no CRL number is provided (or value set to -1), then
469 a time-based number will be used, similarly to the serial generation
470 number in certificates.
472 ** certtool: Print the SHA256 fingerprint of a certificate in addition
475 ** libgnutls: Added --enable-fips140-mode configuration option (unsupported).
476 That option enables (when running on FIPS140-enabled system):
477 o RSA, DSA and DH key generation as in FIPS-186-4 (using provable primes)
478 o The DRBG-CTR-AES256 deterministic random generator from SP800-90A.
479 o Self-tests on initialization on ciphers/MACs, public key algorithms
480 and the random generator.
481 o HMAC-SHA256 verification of the library on load.
482 o MD5 is included for TLS purposes but cannot be used by the high level
484 o All ciphers except AES are disabled.
485 o All MACs and hashes except GCM and SHA are disabled (e.g., HMAC-MD5).
486 o All keys (temporal and long term) are zeroized after use.
487 o Security levels are adjusted to the FIPS140-2 recommendations (rather

841 ** API and ABI modifications:
842 No changes since last version.
845 * Version 3.1.7 (released 2013-02-04)
847 ** certtool: Added option "dn" which allows to directly set the DN
848 in a template from an RFC4514 string.
850 ** danetool: Added options: --dlv and --insecure. Suggested by Paul Wouters.

869 it is now explicitly done on every session deinit.
871 ** libgnutls: Simplified the DTLS sliding window implementation.
873 ** libgnutls: The minimum DH bits accepted by a client are now set
874 by the specified priority string. The current values correspond to the
875 previous defaults (727 bits), except for the SECURE128 and SECURE192
876 strings which increase the minimum to 1248 and 1776 respectively.
878 ** libgnutls: Added the gnutls_record_cork() and uncork API to enable
879 buffering in sending application data.
881 ** libgnutls: Removed default random padding, and added a length-hiding interface
882 instead. Both the server and the client must support this extension. Whether
883 length-hiding can be used on a given session can be checked using
884 gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding(). Contributed by Alfredo Pironti.
886 ** libgnutls: Added the experimental %NEW_PADDING priority string. It enables
887 a new padding mechanism in TLS allowing arbitrary padding in TLS records
888 in all ciphersuites, which makes length-hiding more efficient and solves
889 the issues with timing attacks on CBC ciphersuites.
891 ** libgnutls: Corrected gnutls_cipher_decrypt2() when used with AEAD

971 ** certtool: Added --hex-numbers option which prints big numbers in
972 an easier to parse format.
974 ** p11tool: After key generation, outputs the public key (useful in
975 tokens that do not store the public key).
977 ** danetool: It is being built even without libgnutls-dane (the
978 --check functionality is disabled though).

1141 an insecure level. If the %COMPAT priority flag is not specified
1142 the TLS connection fails.
1144 ** libgnutls: Correctly restore gnutls_record_recv() in DTLS mode
1145 if interrupted during the retrasmition of handshake data.
1147 ** libgnutls: Better mingw32 support (patch by LRN).
1149 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT keyword, if specified, will tolerate
1150 key usage violation errors (they are far too common to ignore).
1152 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_STATELESS_COMPRESSION flag to gnutls_init(),
1153 which provides a tool to counter compression-related attacks where
1154 parts of the data are controlled by the attacker _and_ are placed in
1155 separate records (use with care - do not use compression if not sure).
1157 ** libgnutls: Depends on libtasn1 2.14 or later.
1159 ** certtool: Prints the number of bits of the public key algorithm
1160 parameter in a private key.
1162 ** API and ABI modifications:
1163 gnutls_x509_privkey_get_pk_algorithm2: Added
1164 gnutls_heartbeat_ping: Added
1165 gnutls_heartbeat_pong: Added
1166 gnutls_heartbeat_allowed: Added

1175 ** gnutls-serv: Listens on IPv6. Patch by Bernhard R. Link.
1177 ** certtool: Changes in password handling of certtool.
1178 Ask password when required and only if the '--password' option is not
1179 given. If the '--password' option is given during key generation then
1180 assume the PKCS #8 file format, instead of ignoring the password.
1182 ** tpmtool: No longer asks for key password in registered keys.
1184 ** libgnutls: Elliptic curve code was optimized by Ilya Tumaykin.
1185 wmNAF is now used for point multiplication and other optimizations.
1186 (the major part of the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
1188 ** libgnutls: The default pull_timeout_function only uses select
1189 instead of a combination of select() and recv() to prevent issues
1190 when used in stream sockets in some systems.
1192 ** libgnutls: Be tolerant in ECDSA signature violations (e.g. using
1193 SHA256 with a SECP384 curve instead of SHA-384), to interoperate with
1196 ** libgnutls: Fixed DSA and ECDSA signature generation in smart
1197 cards. Thanks to Andreas Schwier from cardcontact.de for providing
1198 me with ECDSA capable smart cards.
1200 ** API and ABI modifications:
1201 gnutls_sign_algorithm_get: Added
1202 gnutls_sign_get_hash_algorithm: Added
1203 gnutls_sign_get_pk_algorithm: Added
1206 * Version 3.1.0 (released 2012-08-15)
1208 ** libgnutls: Added direct support for TPM as a cryptographic module
1209 in gnutls/tpm.h. TPM keys can be used in functions accepting files
1210 using URLs of the following types:
1211 tpmkey:file=/path/to/file
1212 tpmkey:uuid=7f468c16-cb7f-11e1-824d-b3a4f4b20343;storage=user
1214 ** libgnutls: Priority string level keywords can be combined.
1215 For example the string "SECURE256:+SUITEB128" is now allowed.
1217 ** libgnutls: requires libnettle 2.5.
1219 ** libgnutls: Use the PKCS #1 1.5 encoding provided by nettle (2.5)
1220 for encryption and signatures.
1222 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE to differentiate between
1223 generic errors and signature verification errors in the verification
1226 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse() as a helper function
1227 to simplify parsing in most PKCS #12 use cases.
1229 ** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file() adds
1230 the whole certificate chain (if any) to the credentials structure, instead
1231 of only the end-user certificate.
1233 ** libgnutls: Key import functions such as gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse()
1234 and gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8(), return consistently
1235 GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED if the input structure is encrypted but no
1236 password was provided.
1238 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_handshake_set_timeout() a function that
1239 allows to set the maximum time spent in a handshake.
1241 ** libgnutlsxx: Added session::set_transport_vec_push_function. Patch
1244 ** tpmtool: Added. It is a tool to generate private keys in the
1247 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-tls was split to --benchmark-tls-kx
1248 and --benchmark-tls-ciphers
1250 ** certtool: generated PKCS #12 structures may hold more than one
1251 private key. Patch by Lucas Fisher.
1253 ** certtool: Added option --null-password to generate/decrypt keys
1254 that use a NULL password (in schemas that distinguish between NULL
1255 an empty passwords).
1257 ** minitasn1: Upgraded to libtasn1 version 2.13.
1259 ** API and ABI modifications:
1260 GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE: Added

1304 ** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust()
1305 is now supported on OpenBSD.
1307 ** libgnutls: When verifying a certificate chain make sure it is chain.
1308 If the chain is wronly interrupted at some point then truncate it,
1309 and only try to verify the correct part. Patch by David Woodhouse
1311 ** libgnutls: Restored the behavior of gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8()
1312 which now may (again) accept a NULL password.
1314 ** certtool: Allow the user to choose the hash algorithm
1315 when signing certificate request or certificate revocation list.
1316 Patch by Petr PÃsaÅ™.

1324 ** libgnutls: fixed bug in gnutls_x509_privkey_import()
1325 that prevented the loading of EC private keys when DER
1326 encoded. Reported by David Woodhouse.
1328 ** libgnutls: In DTLS larger to mtu records result to
1329 GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET instead of being truncated.
1331 ** libgnutls: gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu() is more precise. Based
1332 on patch by David Woodhouse.
1334 ** libgnutls: Fixed memory leak in PKCS #8 key import.
1336 ** libgnutls: Added support for an old version of the DTLS protocol
1337 used by openconnect vpn client for compatibility with Cisco's AnyConnect
1338 SSL VPN. It is marked as GNUTLS_DTLS0_9. Do not use it for newer protocols
1341 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that prevented resolving PKCS #11 URLs
1342 if only the label is specified. Patch by David Woodhouse.
1344 ** libgnutls: When EMSGSIZE errno is seen then GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET
1347 ** API and ABI modifications:
1348 gnutls_dtls_set_data_mtu: Added
1349 gnutls_session_set_premaster: Added
1352 * Version 3.0.20 (released 2012-06-05)
1354 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug which prevented the parsing of
1355 handshake packets spanning multiple records.
1357 ** libgnutls: Check key identifiers when checking for an issuer.
1359 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash2()
1361 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust()
1362 that loads the trusted CA certificates from system locations

1380 * Version 3.0.19 (released 2012-04-22)
1382 ** libgnutls: When decoding a PKCS #11 URL the pin-source field
1383 is assumed to be a file that stores the pin. Based on patch
1386 ** libgnutls: gnutls_record_check_pending() no longer
1387 returns unprocessed data, and thus ensure the non-blocking
1388 of the next call to gnutls_record_recv().
1390 ** libgnutls: Added strict tests in Diffie-Hellman and
1391 SRP key exchange public keys.
1393 ** libgnutls: in ECDSA and DSA TLS 1.2 authentication be less
1394 strict in hash selection, and allow a stronger hash to

1509 * Version 3.0.13 (released 2012-02-18)
1511 ** gnutls-cli: added the --ocsp option which will verify
1512 the peer's certificate with OCSP.
1514 ** gnutls-cli: added the --tofu option and if specified, gnutls-cli
1515 will use an ssh-style authentication method.
1517 ** gnutls-cli: if no --x509cafile is provided a default is
1518 assumed (/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt), if it exists.
1520 ** ocsptool: Added --ask parameter, to verify a certificate's
1521 status from an ocsp server.
1523 ** command line apps: Use gnu autogen (libopts) to parse command

1536 ** libgnutls: SUITEB128 and SUITEB192 priority strings account
1537 for the RFC6460 requirements.
1539 ** libgnutls: Added new security parameter GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_LEGACY
1540 to account for security level of 96-bits.
1542 ** libgnutls: In client side if server does not advertise any
1543 known CAs and only a single certificate is set in the credentials,
1546 ** libgnutls: Added functions to parse authority key identifiers
1547 when stored as a 'general name' and serial combo.
1549 ** libgnutls: Added function to force explicit reinitialization
1550 of PKCS #11 modules. This is required on the child process after
1551 a fork (if PKCS #11 functionality is desirable).
1553 ** libgnutls: Depend on p11-kit 0.11.
1555 ** API and ABI modifications:

1578 ** libgnutls: Added OCSP support.
1579 There is a new header file gnutls/ocsp.h and a set of new functions
1580 under the gnutls_ocsp namespace. Currently the functionality provided
1581 is to parse and extract information from OCSP requests/responses, to
1582 generate OCSP requests and to verify OCSP responses. See the manual
1583 for more information. Run ./configure with --disable-ocsp to build
1584 GnuTLS without OCSP support.
1586 This work was sponsored by Smoothwall <http://smoothwall.net/>.
1588 ** ocsptool: Added new command line tool.
1589 The tool can parse OCSP request/responses, generate OCSP requests and

1664 in Linux as well as in BSD.
1666 ** gnutls-cli: Fixed reading from windows terminals.
1668 ** libgnutls: When GNUTLS_OPENPGP_FMT_BASE64 is specified
1669 the stream is assumed to be base64 encoded (previously
1670 the encoding was auto-detected). This avoids a decoding
1671 issue in windows systems.

2284 * Version 2.12.0 (released 2011-03-24)
2286 ** certtool: Warns on generation of DSA keys of over 1024 bits, about
2287 the incompatibility with TLS other than 1.2.
2289 ** libgnutls: Modified signature algorithm selection in client
2290 certificate request, to avoid failures in DSA certificates.
2292 ** libgnutls: Instead of failing with internal error, return
2293 GNUTLS_E_INCOMPAT_DSA_KEY_WITH_TLS_PROTOCOL if an incompatible DSA
2294 key with the negotiated protocol is encountered.
2296 ** libgnutls: Bug fixes in the RSA ciphersuite behavior with openpgp keys.
2298 ** libgnutls: Force state update when fork is detected in the nettle
2301 ** libgnutls: modified gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp() to use the preferred
2302 subkey instead of setting explicitly one.
2304 ** libgnutls: Corrected default behavior in record version of Client Hellos.
2306 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
2307 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
2309 ** API and ABI modifications:
2310 gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp: MODIFIED
2315 ** libgnutls: The deprecated gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash() was
2316 replaced by gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2().
2318 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
2319 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
2320 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
2321 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
2324 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
2325 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
2327 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
2329 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
2330 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),
2331 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash(), gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data(), were
2332 deprecated for gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(),
2333 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(), gnutls_privkey_sign_hash(),
2334 gnutls_privkey_sign_data(), gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash()
2335 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() respectively.
2337 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
2340 ** libgnutls: Added convenience functions gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2()
2341 and gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2().
2343 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
2344 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.

2373 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
2375 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
2376 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
2379 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
2380 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
2382 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
2384 ** API and ABI modifications:
2385 No changes since last version.
2387 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
2389 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
2390 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
2391 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
2393 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
2394 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
2396 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
2397 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
2400 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
2402 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
2403 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
2404 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
2406 ** API and ABI modifications:
2407 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
2408 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
2410 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
2412 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
2413 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
2414 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
2415 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
2418 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
2420 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
2422 ** build: Update gnulib files.
2424 ** i18n: Update translations.
2426 ** tests: Add self tests gendh.c. Speed up Guile self checks.
2428 ** API and ABI modifications:
2429 gnutls_session_channel_binding: New function.
2430 gnutls_channel_binding_t: New enumeration.
2431 GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE: New gnutls_channel_binding_t enum member.
2432 GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE: New error code.
2434 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
2436 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
2437 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
2438 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
2439 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
2441 ** API and ABI modifications:
2442 No changes since last version.
2444 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
2446 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
2447 and session tickets support.
2449 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
2451 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
2452 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
2453 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
2454 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
2455 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
2458 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
2459 introduced with the new nettle code.
2461 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
2463 ** API and ABI modifications:
2464 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
2465 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
2467 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
2469 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
2470 to use the libgcrypt back end.
2472 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
2473 backend crypto library.
2475 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
2477 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
2479 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
2480 tabs are being skipped.
2482 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
2484 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
2487 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
2488 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
2489 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
2491 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
2492 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
2493 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
2494 and 3072 keys only).
2496 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
2497 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
2498 is unable to decode the key.
2500 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
2502 ** API and ABI modifications:
2503 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
2504 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
2506 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
2508 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
2509 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
2510 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
2513 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
2514 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
2515 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
2516 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
2517 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
2518 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
2519 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
2521 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
2525 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
2527 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
2528 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
2529 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
2531 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
2534 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
2535 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
2537 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
2538 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
2540 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
2541 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
2542 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
2543 the OPRFI extension was removed.
2545 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
2547 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
2548 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
2549 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
2551 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
2553 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
2554 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
2555 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
2557 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
2558 works even when resuming a session.
2560 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
2561 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
2562 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
2563 PKCS #11 private keys.
2565 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
2566 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
2568 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
2569 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
2571 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
2572 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
2573 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
2575 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
2576 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
2577 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
2579 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
2582 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
2583 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
2584 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
2585 connections using a url such as:
2586 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

2667 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
2669 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
2672 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
2674 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
2675 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
2676 is unable to decode the key.
2678 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
2679 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
2681 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
2682 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
2684 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
2685 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
2686 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
2688 ** API and ABI modifications:

2703 No changes since last version.
2705 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
2707 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
2708 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
2709 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
2710 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
2711 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
2713 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
2714 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
2716 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
2718 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
2720 ** API and ABI modifications:
2721 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
2722 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
2724 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
2726 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
2727 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
2730 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
2731 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
2732 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
2734 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
2735 Solves the issue discussed in:
2736 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
2737 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
2738 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
2739 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
2740 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
2741 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
2742 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
2743 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
2745 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
2747 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
2750 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
2751 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
2752 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
2753 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
2755 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
2756 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
2757 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
2758 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
2759 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
2760 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
2761 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
2762 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
2764 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
2765 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
2766 end of the handshake.
2768 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
2769 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
2771 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
2772 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
2773 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
2774 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
2775 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
2776 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
2777 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
2778 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
2779 now different than previous gnutls releases.
2780 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
2782 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
2784 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
2786 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

2853 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
2854 Reported by Tang Tong.
2856 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
2857 ** extension and certificate verify field.
2858 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
2859 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
2860 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
2861 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
2864 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
2865 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
2867 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
2869 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
2870 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
2871 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
2873 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
2874 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem

2921 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
2923 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
2924 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
2925 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
2926 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad

2937 The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
2938 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
2939 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
2942 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.

2947 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
2948 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
2950 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
2951 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
2952 error, to prevent this from happening again.
2954 ** API and ABI modifications:
2955 No changes since last version.
2957 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
2959 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
2960 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
2961 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
2962 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
2964 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

2971 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
2973 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2974 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2975 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2976 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2977 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2978 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2979 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2980 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2981 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2982 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2983 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2984 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2985 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2986 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
2988 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
2989 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
2990 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
2992 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
2994 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
2995 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
2996 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2997 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
2999 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
3000 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
3001 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
3002 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in
3003 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3651>.
3005 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
3006 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
3007 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
3008 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in

3012 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
3013 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
3014 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
3015 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.

3021 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
3023 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
3024 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
3025 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
3026 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
3027 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
3028 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.

3066 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
3067 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
3069 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
3070 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
3071 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
3073 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
3074 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
3075 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
3076 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
3077 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti

3218 Forwarded by Martin von Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net> from
3219 <http://bugs.gentoo.org/272388>.
3221 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
3222 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
3223 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
3224 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in
3225 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1663>.

3337 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
3338 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
3341 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
3342 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
3348 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
3349 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
3350 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
3351 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
3352 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
3353 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
3355 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
3356 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
