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: Use nettle's PBKDF2 implementation.
33 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname() and friends will use
34 RFC6125 comparison of hostnames. That introduces a dependency on libidn.
36 ** libgnutls: When printing a certificate request print the signature
39 ** libgnutls: Added support for RFC7366 (currently, in accordance
40 to the existing implementations rather than strictly following the
41 text). This is enabled by default.
43 ** libgnutls: The gnutls_handshake() process will enforce a timeout by
46 ** libgnutls: The priority string EXPORT was removed.
48 ** libgnutls: If a key purpose (extended key usage) is specified for verification,
49 it is applied into intermediate certificates. The verification result
50 GNUTLS_CERT_PURPOSE_MISMATCH is also introduced.
52 ** libgnutls: Added support for the extended master secret
53 (triple-handshake fix) following draft-ietf-tls-session-hash-02.
55 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-CCM.
57 ** libgnutls: Added a new simple and hard to misuse AEAD API (crypto.h).
59 ** libgnutls: When gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2() is used in
60 combination with PKCS #11, or TPM URLs, it will utilize the provided
61 password as PIN if required. That removes the requirement for the
62 application to set a callback for PINs in that case.
64 ** libgnutls: Certificate chains which are provided to gnutls_certificate_credentials_t
65 will automatically be sorted instead of failing with GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_LIST_UNSORTED.
67 ** libgnutls: Added the ability to register application specific URL
68 types, which express certificates and keys using gnutls_register_custom_url().
70 ** libgnutls-openssl: it is no longer built by default.
72 ** certtool: Added --p8-info option, which will print PKCS #8 information
73 even if the password is not available.
75 ** certtool: --key-info option will print PKCS #8 encryption information
78 ** certtool: Added the --key-id and --fingerprint options.
80 ** certtool: --p12-info option will print PKCS #12 MAC and cipher information
83 ** certtool: it will print the A-label (ACE) names in addition to UTF-8.
85 ** gnutls-cli: added option --priority-list.
87 ** guile: Deprecated priority API has been removed. The old priority API,
88 which had been deprecated for some time, is now gone; use 'set-session-priorities!'
91 ** guile: Remove RSA parameters and related procedures. This API had been
94 ** guile: Fix compilation on MinGW. Previously only the static version of the
95 'guile-gnutls-v-2' library would be built, preventing dynamic loading from Guile.

184 * Version 3.3.6 (released 2014-07-23)
186 ** libgnutls: Use inet_ntop to print IP addresses when available
188 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname and friends will also check
189 IP addresses, and match documented behavior. Reported by David Woodhouse.
191 ** libgnutls: DSA key generation in FIPS140-2 mode doesn't allow 1024
194 ** libgnutls: fixed issue in gnutls_pkcs11_reinit() which prevented tokens
195 being usable after a reinitialization.
197 ** libgnutls: fixed PKCS #11 private key operations after a fork.
199 ** libgnutls: fixed PKCS #11 ECDSA key generation.
201 ** libgnutls: The GNUTLS_CPUID_OVERRIDE environment variable can be used to
202 explicitly enable/disable the use of certain CPU capabilities. Note that CPU
203 detection cannot be overriden, i.e., VIA options cannot be enabled on an Intel
204 CPU. The currently available options are:
205 0x1: Disable all run-time detected optimizations
209 0x100000: Enable VIA padlock
210 0x200000: Enable VIA PHE
211 0x400000: Enable VIA PHE SHA512
213 ** libdane: added dane_query_to_raw_tlsa(); patch by Simon Arlott.
215 ** p11tool: use GNUTLS_SO_PIN to read the security officer's PIN if set.
217 ** p11tool: ask for label when one isn't provided.
219 ** p11tool: added --batch parameter to disable any interactivity.
221 ** p11tool: will not implicitly enable so-login for certain types of
222 objects. That avoids issues with tokens that require different login
225 ** certtool/p11tool: Added the --curve parameter which allows to explicitly
226 specify the curve to use.
228 ** API and ABI modifications:
229 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_dir: Added
230 gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_dir: Added
233 * Version 3.3.5 (released 2014-06-26)
235 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_record_recv_packet() and gnutls_packet_deinit().
236 These functions provide a variant of gnutls_record_recv() that avoids
237 the final memcpy of data.
239 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crl_iter_crt_serial() was added as a
240 faster variant of gnutls_x509_crl_get_crt_serial() when coping with
241 very large structures.
243 ** libgnutls: When the decoding of a printable DN element fails, then treat
244 it as unknown and print its hex value rather than failing. That works around
245 an issue in a TURKTRST root certificate which improperly encodes the
246 X520countryName element.
248 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_file() will return the number
249 of certificates present in a PKCS #11 token when loading it.
251 ** libgnutls: Allow the post client hello callback to put the handshake on
252 hold, by returning GNUTLS_E_AGAIN or GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED.
254 ** certtool: option --to-p12 will now consider --load-ca-certificate
256 ** certtol: Added option to specify the PKCS #12 friendly name on command
259 ** p11tool: Allow marking a certificate copied to a token as a CA.
261 ** API and ABI modifications:
262 GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_CA: Added
263 gnutls_x509_crl_iter_deinit: Added
264 gnutls_x509_crl_iter_crt_serial: Added
265 gnutls_record_recv_packet: Added
266 gnutls_packet_deinit: Added
267 gnutls_packet_get: Added
270 * Version 3.3.4 (released 2014-05-31)
272 ** libgnutls: Updated Andy Polyakov's assembly code. That prevents a
273 crash on certain CPUs.
275 ** API and ABI modifications:
276 No changes since last version.
279 * Version 3.3.3 (released 2014-05-30)
281 ** libgnutls: Eliminated memory corruption issue in Server Hello parsing.
282 Issue reported by Joonas Kuorilehto of Codenomicon.
284 ** libgnutls: gnutls_global_set_mutex() was modified to operate with the
285 new initialization process.
287 ** libgnutls: Increased the maximum certificate size buffer
288 in the PKCS #11 subsystem.
290 ** libgnutls: Check the return code of getpwuid_r() instead of relying
291 on the result value. That avoids issue in certain systems, when using
292 tofu authentication and the home path cannot be determined. Issue reported
295 ** libgnutls-dane: Improved dane_verify_session_crt(), which now attempts to
296 create a full chain. This addresses points from https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?108552
298 ** gnutls-cli: --dane will only check the end certificate if PKIX validation
301 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-soft-ciphers has been removed. That option cannot
302 be emulated with the implicit initialization of gnutls.
304 ** certtool: Allow multiple organizations and organizational unit names to
305 be specified in a template.
307 ** certtool: Warn when invalid configuration options are set to a template.
309 ** ocsptool: Include path in ocsp request. This resolves #108582
310 (https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?108582), reported by Matt McCutchen.
312 ** API and ABI modifications:
313 gnutls_credentials_get: Added
316 * Version 3.3.2 (released 2014-05-06)
318 ** libgnutls: Added the 'very weak' certificate verification profile
319 that corresponds to 64-bit security level.
321 ** libgnutls: Corrected file descriptor leak on random generator
324 ** libgnutls: Corrected file descriptor leak on PSK password file
325 reading. Issue identified using the Codenomicon TLS test suite.
327 ** libgnutls: Avoid deinitialization if initialization has failed.
329 ** libgnutls: null-terminate othername alternative names.
331 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_trust_list_get_issuer() will operate correctly
332 on a PKCS #11 trust list.
334 ** libgnutls: Several small bug fixes identified using valgrind and
335 the Codenomicon TLS test suite.
337 ** libgnutls-dane: Accept a certificate using DANE if there is at least one
338 entry that matches the certificate. Patch by simon [at] arlott.org.
340 ** libgnutls-guile: Fixed compilation issue.
342 ** certtool: Allow exporting a CRL on DER format.
344 ** certtool: The ECDSA keys generated by default use the SECP256R1 curve
345 which is supported more widely than the previously used SECP224R1.
347 ** API and ABI modifications:
348 GNUTLS_PROFILE_VERY_WEAK: Added
351 * Version 3.3.1 (released 2014-04-19)
353 ** libgnutls: Enforce more strict checks to heartbeat messages
354 concerning padding and payload. Suggested by Peter Dettman.
356 ** libgnutls: Allow decoding PKCS #8 files with ECC parameters
359 ** libgnutls: Several small bug fixes found by coverity.
361 ** libgnutls: The conditionally available self-test functions
362 were moved to self-test.h.
364 ** libgnutls: Fixed issue with the check of incoming data when two
365 different recv and send pointers have been specified. Reported and
366 investigated by JMRecio.
368 ** libgnutls: Fixed issue in the RSA-PSK key exchange, which would
369 result to illegal memory access if a server hint was provided. Reported
372 ** libgnutls: Fixed client memory leak in the PSK key exchange, if a
373 server hint was provided.
375 ** libgnutls: Corrected the *get_*_othername_oid() functions.
377 ** API and ABI modifications:
378 No changes since last version.
381 * Version 3.3.0 (released 2014-04-10)
383 ** libgnutls: The initialization of the library was moved to a
384 constructor. That is, gnutls_global_init() is no longer required
385 unless linking with a static library or a system that does not
386 support library constructors.
388 ** libgnutls: static libraries are not built by default.
390 ** libgnutls: PKCS #11 initialization is delayed to first usage.
391 That avoids long delays in gnutls initialization due to broken PKCS #11
394 ** libgnutls: The PKCS #11 subsystem is re-initialized "automatically"
395 on the first PKCS #11 API call after a fork.
397 ** libgnutls: certificate verification profiles were introduced
398 that can be specified as flags to verification functions. They
399 are enumerations in gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t
400 and can be converted to flags for use in a verification function
401 using GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS().
403 ** libgnutls: Added the ability to read system-specific initial
404 keywords, if they are prefixed with '@'. That allows a compile-time
405 specified configuration file to be used to read pre-configured priority
406 strings from. That can be used to impose system specific policies.
408 ** libgnutls: Increased the default security level of priority
409 strings (NORMAL and PFS strings require at minimum a 1008 DH prime),
410 and set a verification profile by default. The LEGACY keyword is
411 introduced to set the old defaults.
413 ** libgnutls: Added support for the name constraints PKIX extension.
414 Currently only DNS names and e-mails are supported (no URIs, IPs
417 ** libgnutls: Security parameter SEC_PARAM_NORMAL was renamed to
418 SEC_PARAM_MEDIUM to avoid confusion with the priority string NORMAL.
420 ** libgnutls: Added new API in x509-ext.h to handle X.509 extensions.
421 This API handles the X.509 extensions in isolation, allowing to parse
422 similarly formatted extensions stored in other structures.
424 ** libgnutls: When generating DSA keys the macro GNUTLS_SUBGROUP_TO_BITS
425 can be used to specify a particular subgroup as the number of bits in
426 gnutls_privkey_generate; e.g., GNUTLS_SUBGROUP_TO_BITS(2048, 256).
428 ** libgnutls: DH parameter generation is now delegated to nettle.
429 That unfortunately has the side-effect that DH parameters longer than
430 3072 bits, cannot be generated (not without a nettle update).
432 ** libgnutls: Separated nonce RNG from the main RNG. The nonce
433 random number generator is based on salsa20/12.
435 ** libgnutls: The buffer alignment provided to crypto backend is
436 enforced to be 16-byte aligned, when compiled with cryptodev
437 support. That allows certain cryptodev drivers to operate more
440 ** libgnutls: Return error when a public/private key pair that doesn't
441 match is set into a credentials structure.
443 ** libgnutls: Depend on p11-kit 0.20.0 or later.
445 ** libgnutls: The new padding (%NEW_PADDING) experimental TLS extension has
446 been removed. It was not approved by IETF.
448 ** libgnutls: The experimental xssl library is removed from the gnutls
451 ** libgnutls: Reduced the number of gnulib modules used in the main library.
453 ** libgnutls: Added priority string %DISABLE_WILDCARDS.
455 ** libgnutls: Added the more extensible verification function
456 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers(), that allows checking, in addition
457 to a peer's DNS hostname, for the key purpose of the end certificate
458 (via PKIX extended key usage).
460 ** certtool: Timestamps for serial numbers were increased to 8 bytes,
461 and in batch mode to 12 (appended with 4 random bytes).
463 ** certtool: When no CRL number is provided (or value set to -1), then
464 a time-based number will be used, similarly to the serial generation
465 number in certificates.
467 ** certtool: Print the SHA256 fingerprint of a certificate in addition
470 ** libgnutls: Added --enable-fips140-mode configuration option (unsupported).
471 That option enables (when running on FIPS140-enabled system):
472 o RSA, DSA and DH key generation as in FIPS-186-4 (using provable primes)
473 o The DRBG-CTR-AES256 deterministic random generator from SP800-90A.
474 o Self-tests on initialization on ciphers/MACs, public key algorithms
475 and the random generator.
476 o HMAC-SHA256 verification of the library on load.
477 o MD5 is included for TLS purposes but cannot be used by the high level
479 o All ciphers except AES are disabled.
480 o All MACs and hashes except GCM and SHA are disabled (e.g., HMAC-MD5).
481 o All keys (temporal and long term) are zeroized after use.
482 o Security levels are adjusted to the FIPS140-2 recommendations (rather

836 ** API and ABI modifications:
837 No changes since last version.
840 * Version 3.1.7 (released 2013-02-04)
842 ** certtool: Added option "dn" which allows to directly set the DN
843 in a template from an RFC4514 string.
845 ** danetool: Added options: --dlv and --insecure. Suggested by Paul Wouters.
847 ** libgnutls-xssl: Added a new library to simplify GnuTLS usage.

860 ** libgnutls: Added functions to directly set the DN in a certificate
861 or request from an RFC4514 string.
863 ** libgnutls: Optimizations in the random generator. The re-seeding of
864 it is now explicitly done on every session deinit.
866 ** libgnutls: Simplified the DTLS sliding window implementation.
868 ** libgnutls: The minimum DH bits accepted by a client are now set
869 by the specified priority string. The current values correspond to the
870 previous defaults (727 bits), except for the SECURE128 and SECURE192
871 strings which increase the minimum to 1248 and 1776 respectively.
873 ** libgnutls: Added the gnutls_record_cork() and uncork API to enable
874 buffering in sending application data.
876 ** libgnutls: Removed default random padding, and added a length-hiding interface
877 instead. Both the server and the client must support this extension. Whether
878 length-hiding can be used on a given session can be checked using
879 gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding(). Contributed by Alfredo Pironti.
881 ** libgnutls: Added the experimental %NEW_PADDING priority string. It enables
882 a new padding mechanism in TLS allowing arbitrary padding in TLS records
883 in all ciphersuites, which makes length-hiding more efficient and solves
884 the issues with timing attacks on CBC ciphersuites.
886 ** libgnutls: Corrected gnutls_cipher_decrypt2() when used with AEAD
887 ciphers (i.e., AES-GCM). Reported by William McGovern.

956 public key on generation.
958 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug in priority string parsing, that mostly
959 affected combined levels. Patch by Tim Kosse.
961 ** certtool: The --pubkey-info option can be combined with the
962 --load-privkey or --load-request to print the corresponding public keys.
964 ** certtool: It is able to set certificate policies via a template.
966 ** certtool: Added --hex-numbers option which prints big numbers in
967 an easier to parse format.
969 ** p11tool: After key generation, outputs the public key (useful in
970 tokens that do not store the public key).
972 ** danetool: It is being built even without libgnutls-dane (the
973 --check functionality is disabled though).

1140 if interrupted during the retrasmition of handshake data.
1142 ** libgnutls: Better mingw32 support (patch by LRN).
1144 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT keyword, if specified, will tolerate
1145 key usage violation errors (they are far too common to ignore).
1147 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_STATELESS_COMPRESSION flag to gnutls_init(),
1148 which provides a tool to counter compression-related attacks where
1149 parts of the data are controlled by the attacker _and_ are placed in
1150 separate records (use with care - do not use compression if not sure).
1152 ** libgnutls: Depends on libtasn1 2.14 or later.
1154 ** certtool: Prints the number of bits of the public key algorithm
1155 parameter in a private key.
1157 ** API and ABI modifications:
1158 gnutls_x509_privkey_get_pk_algorithm2: Added
1159 gnutls_heartbeat_ping: Added
1160 gnutls_heartbeat_pong: Added
1161 gnutls_heartbeat_allowed: Added

1170 ** gnutls-serv: Listens on IPv6. Patch by Bernhard R. Link.
1172 ** certtool: Changes in password handling of certtool.
1173 Ask password when required and only if the '--password' option is not
1174 given. If the '--password' option is given during key generation then
1175 assume the PKCS #8 file format, instead of ignoring the password.
1177 ** tpmtool: No longer asks for key password in registered keys.
1179 ** libgnutls: Elliptic curve code was optimized by Ilya Tumaykin.
1180 wmNAF is now used for point multiplication and other optimizations.
1181 (the major part of the work was done during Google Summer of Code).
1183 ** libgnutls: The default pull_timeout_function only uses select
1184 instead of a combination of select() and recv() to prevent issues
1185 when used in stream sockets in some systems.
1187 ** libgnutls: Be tolerant in ECDSA signature violations (e.g. using
1188 SHA256 with a SECP384 curve instead of SHA-384), to interoperate with
1191 ** libgnutls: Fixed DSA and ECDSA signature generation in smart
1192 cards. Thanks to Andreas Schwier from cardcontact.de for providing
1193 me with ECDSA capable smart cards.
1195 ** API and ABI modifications:
1196 gnutls_sign_algorithm_get: Added
1197 gnutls_sign_get_hash_algorithm: Added
1198 gnutls_sign_get_pk_algorithm: Added
1201 * Version 3.1.0 (released 2012-08-15)
1203 ** libgnutls: Added direct support for TPM as a cryptographic module
1204 in gnutls/tpm.h. TPM keys can be used in functions accepting files
1205 using URLs of the following types:
1206 tpmkey:file=/path/to/file
1207 tpmkey:uuid=7f468c16-cb7f-11e1-824d-b3a4f4b20343;storage=user
1209 ** libgnutls: Priority string level keywords can be combined.
1210 For example the string "SECURE256:+SUITEB128" is now allowed.
1212 ** libgnutls: requires libnettle 2.5.
1214 ** libgnutls: Use the PKCS #1 1.5 encoding provided by nettle (2.5)
1215 for encryption and signatures.
1217 ** libgnutls: Added GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE to differentiate between
1218 generic errors and signature verification errors in the verification
1221 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse() as a helper function
1222 to simplify parsing in most PKCS #12 use cases.
1224 ** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file() adds
1225 the whole certificate chain (if any) to the credentials structure, instead
1226 of only the end-user certificate.
1228 ** libgnutls: Key import functions such as gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse()
1229 and gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8(), return consistently
1230 GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED if the input structure is encrypted but no
1231 password was provided.
1233 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_handshake_set_timeout() a function that
1234 allows to set the maximum time spent in a handshake.
1236 ** libgnutlsxx: Added session::set_transport_vec_push_function. Patch
1239 ** tpmtool: Added. It is a tool to generate private keys in the
1242 ** gnutls-cli: --benchmark-tls was split to --benchmark-tls-kx
1243 and --benchmark-tls-ciphers
1245 ** certtool: generated PKCS #12 structures may hold more than one
1246 private key. Patch by Lucas Fisher.
1248 ** certtool: Added option --null-password to generate/decrypt keys
1249 that use a NULL password (in schemas that distinguish between NULL
1250 an empty passwords).

1299 ** libgnutls: gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust()
1300 is now supported on OpenBSD.
1302 ** libgnutls: When verifying a certificate chain make sure it is chain.
1303 If the chain is wronly interrupted at some point then truncate it,
1304 and only try to verify the correct part. Patch by David Woodhouse
1306 ** libgnutls: Restored the behavior of gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8()
1307 which now may (again) accept a NULL password.

1320 that prevented the loading of EC private keys when DER
1321 encoded. Reported by David Woodhouse.
1323 ** libgnutls: In DTLS larger to mtu records result to
1324 GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET instead of being truncated.
1326 ** libgnutls: gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu() is more precise. Based
1327 on patch by David Woodhouse.
1329 ** libgnutls: Fixed memory leak in PKCS #8 key import.
1331 ** libgnutls: Added support for an old version of the DTLS protocol
1332 used by openconnect vpn client for compatibility with Cisco's AnyConnect

1336 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that prevented resolving PKCS #11 URLs
1337 if only the label is specified. Patch by David Woodhouse.
1339 ** libgnutls: When EMSGSIZE errno is seen then GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET
1342 ** API and ABI modifications:
1343 gnutls_dtls_set_data_mtu: Added
1344 gnutls_session_set_premaster: Added

1375 * Version 3.0.19 (released 2012-04-22)
1377 ** libgnutls: When decoding a PKCS #11 URL the pin-source field
1378 is assumed to be a file that stores the pin. Based on patch
1381 ** libgnutls: gnutls_record_check_pending() no longer
1382 returns unprocessed data, and thus ensure the non-blocking
1383 of the next call to gnutls_record_recv().
1385 ** libgnutls: Added strict tests in Diffie-Hellman and
1386 SRP key exchange public keys.
1388 ** libgnutls: in ECDSA and DSA TLS 1.2 authentication be less

1506 ** gnutls-cli: added the --ocsp option which will verify
1507 the peer's certificate with OCSP.
1509 ** gnutls-cli: added the --tofu option and if specified, gnutls-cli
1510 will use an ssh-style authentication method.
1512 ** gnutls-cli: if no --x509cafile is provided a default is
1513 assumed (/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt), if it exists.
1515 ** ocsptool: Added --ask parameter, to verify a certificate's
1516 status from an ocsp server.
1518 ** command line apps: Use gnu autogen (libopts) to parse command

1532 for the RFC6460 requirements.
1534 ** libgnutls: Added new security parameter GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_LEGACY
1535 to account for security level of 96-bits.
1537 ** libgnutls: In client side if server does not advertise any
1538 known CAs and only a single certificate is set in the credentials,
1541 ** libgnutls: Added functions to parse authority key identifiers
1542 when stored as a 'general name' and serial combo.
1544 ** libgnutls: Added function to force explicit reinitialization
1545 of PKCS #11 modules. This is required on the child process after
1546 a fork (if PKCS #11 functionality is desirable).
1548 ** libgnutls: Depend on p11-kit 0.11.
1550 ** API and ABI modifications:

1575 under the gnutls_ocsp namespace. Currently the functionality provided
1576 is to parse and extract information from OCSP requests/responses, to
1577 generate OCSP requests and to verify OCSP responses. See the manual
1578 for more information. Run ./configure with --disable-ocsp to build
1579 GnuTLS without OCSP support.
1581 This work was sponsored by Smoothwall <http://smoothwall.net/>.
1583 ** ocsptool: Added new command line tool.
1584 The tool can parse OCSP request/responses, generate OCSP requests and

1659 in Linux as well as in BSD.
1661 ** gnutls-cli: Fixed reading from windows terminals.
1663 ** libgnutls: When GNUTLS_OPENPGP_FMT_BASE64 is specified
1664 the stream is assumed to be base64 encoded (previously
1665 the encoding was auto-detected). This avoids a decoding
1666 issue in windows systems.

2279 * Version 2.12.0 (released 2011-03-24)
2281 ** certtool: Warns on generation of DSA keys of over 1024 bits, about
2282 the incompatibility with TLS other than 1.2.
2284 ** libgnutls: Modified signature algorithm selection in client
2285 certificate request, to avoid failures in DSA certificates.
2287 ** libgnutls: Instead of failing with internal error, return
2288 GNUTLS_E_INCOMPAT_DSA_KEY_WITH_TLS_PROTOCOL if an incompatible DSA
2289 key with the negotiated protocol is encountered.
2291 ** libgnutls: Bug fixes in the RSA ciphersuite behavior with openpgp keys.
2293 ** libgnutls: Force state update when fork is detected in the nettle
2296 ** libgnutls: modified gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp() to use the preferred
2297 subkey instead of setting explicitly one.
2299 ** libgnutls: Corrected default behavior in record version of Client Hellos.
2301 ** libgnutls-openssl: modified to use modern gnutls' functions.
2302 This introduces an ABI incompatibility with previous versions.
2304 ** API and ABI modifications:
2305 gnutls_pubkey_import_openpgp: MODIFIED
2310 ** libgnutls: The deprecated gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash() was
2311 replaced by gnutls_privkey_sign_hash2().
2313 ** libgnutls: gnutls_pubkey_verify_data, gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash,
2314 gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data, gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data,
2315 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash return the negative error code
2316 GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED if verification fails to simplify error
2319 ** libgnutls: Added helper functions for signature verification:
2320 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() and gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey().
2322 ** libgnutls: Modified gnutls_privkey_sign_data().
2324 ** gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign2(), gnutls_x509_crq_sign2()
2325 gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_hash(), gnutls_x509_privkey_sign_data(),
2326 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash(), gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data(), were
2327 deprecated for gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign(),
2328 gnutls_x509_crq_privkey_sign(), gnutls_privkey_sign_hash(),
2329 gnutls_privkey_sign_data(), gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash()
2330 gnutls_pubkey_verify_data() respectively.
2332 ** libgnutls: gnutls_*_export_raw() functions now add leading zero in
2335 ** libgnutls: Added convenience functions gnutls_x509_crl_list_import2()
2336 and gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2().
2338 ** crypto.h: Fix use with C++.
2339 Reported by "Brendan Doherty" <brendand@gentrack.com>.

2368 * Version 2.11.6 (released 2010-12-06)
2370 ** libgnutls: Record version of Client Hellos is now set by default to
2371 SSL 3.0. To restore the previous default behavior use %LATEST_RECORD_VERSION
2374 ** libgnutls: Use ASN1_NULL when writing parameters for RSA signatures.
2375 This makes us comply with RFC3279. Reported by Michael Rommel.
2377 ** gnutls-serv: Corrected a buffer overflow. Reported and patch by Tomas Mraz.
2379 ** API and ABI modifications:
2380 No changes since last version.
2382 * Version 2.11.5 (released 2010-12-01)
2384 ** libgnutls: Reverted default behavior for verification and
2385 introduced GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT. Thus by default
2386 V1 trusted CAs are allowed, unless the new flag is specified.
2388 ** libgnutls: Correctly add leading zero to PKCS #8 encoded DSA key.
2389 Reported by Jeffrey Walton.
2391 ** libgnutls: Added SIGN-ALL, CTYPE-ALL, COMP-ALL, and VERS-TLS-ALL
2392 as priority strings. Those allow to set all the supported algorithms
2395 ** p11tool: Introduced. It allows manipulating pkcs 11 tokens.
2397 ** gnutls-cli: Print channel binding only in verbose mode.
2398 Before it printed it after the 'Compression:' output, thus breaking
2399 Emacs starttls.el string searches.
2401 ** API and ABI modifications:
2402 gnutls_pkcs11_token_init: New function
2403 gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin: New function
2405 * Version 2.11.4 (released 2010-10-15)
2407 ** libgnutls: Add new API gnutls_session_channel_binding.
2408 The function is used to get the channel binding data. Currently only
2409 the "tls-unique" (RFC 5929) channel binding type is supported, through
2410 the GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE type. See new section "Channel Bindings" in
2413 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: Print 'tls-unique' Channel Bindings.
2415 ** doc: Added pkcs11.h header file to GTK-DOC manual.
2417 ** build: Update gnulib files.
2419 ** i18n: Update translations.
2421 ** tests: Add self tests gendh.c. Speed up Guile self checks.
2423 ** API and ABI modifications:
2424 gnutls_session_channel_binding: New function.
2425 gnutls_channel_binding_t: New enumeration.
2426 GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE: New gnutls_channel_binding_t enum member.
2427 GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE: New error code.
2429 * Version 2.11.3 (released 2010-10-14)
2431 ** Indent code to follow the GNU Coding Standard.
2432 You should be able to unpack the 2.11.2 release and run 'make indent'
2433 twice to get exactly the same content as 2.11.3 except for generated
2434 files. Using GNU Indent 2.2.11.
2436 ** API and ABI modifications:
2437 No changes since last version.
2439 * Version 2.11.2 (released 2010-10-08)
2441 ** libgnutls: Several bug fixes on session resumption
2442 and session tickets support.
2444 ** libgnutls: Add new extended key usage ipsecIKE.
2446 ** certtool: Renamed PKCS #11 options to: --p11-provider,
2447 --p11-export-url, --p11-list-certs, --p11-list-certs,
2448 --p11-list-privkeys, --p11-list-trusted, --p11-list-all-certs,
2449 --p11-list-all, --p11-list-tokens, --p11-login, --p11-write,
2450 --p11-write-label, --p11-write-trusted, --p11-detailed-url,
2453 ** libgnutls: Corrected bug that caused importing DSA keys as RSA,
2454 introduced with the new nettle code.
2456 ** libgnutls: Corrected advertizing issue for session tickets.
2458 ** API and ABI modifications:
2459 gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id: ADDED.
2460 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_unique_id: ADDED.
2462 * Version 2.11.1 (released 2010-09-14)
2464 ** libgnutls: Nettle is the default crypto back end. Use --with-libgcrypt
2465 to use the libgcrypt back end.
2467 ** libgnutls: Depend on nettle 2.1. This makes nettle a fully working
2468 backend crypto library.
2470 ** libgnutls: Added RSA_NULL_SHA1 and SHA256 ciphersuites.
2472 ** libgnutls: Several updates in the buffering internal interface.
2474 ** libgnutls: Is now more liberal in the PEM decoding. That is spaces and
2475 tabs are being skipped.
2477 ** libgnutls: Added support for draft-pechanec-pkcs11uri-02.
2479 ** libgnutls: The %COMPAT flag now allows larger records that violate the
2482 ** libgnutls: by default lowat level has been set to zero to avoid unnecessary
2483 system calls. Applications that depended on it being 1 should explicitly call
2484 gnutls_transport_set_lowat().
2486 ** libgnutls: Updated documentation and gnutls_pk_params_t mappings
2487 to ECRYPT II recommendations. Mappings were moved to a single location
2488 and DSA keys are handled differently (since DSA2 allows for 1024,2048
2489 and 3072 keys only).
2491 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
2492 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
2493 is unable to decode the key.
2495 ** libgnutls: HMAC-MD5 no longer used by default.
2497 ** API and ABI modifications:
2498 gnutls_openpgp_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
2499 gnutls_x509_privkey_sec_param: ADDED
2501 * Version 2.11.0 (released 2010-07-22)
2503 ** libgnutls: support scattered write using writev(). This takes
2504 advantage of the new buffering layer and allows queuing of packets
2505 and flushing them. This is currently used for handshake messages
2508 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_global_set_mutex() to allow setting
2509 alternative locking procedures. By default the system available
2510 locking is used. In *NIX pthreads are used and in windows the
2511 critical section API. This follows a different approach than the
2512 previous versions that depended on libgcrypt initialization. The
2513 locks are now set by default in systems that support it. Programs
2514 that used gcry_control() to set thread locks should insert it into
2516 #if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER <= 0x020b00
2520 ** libgnutls: Added support for reading DN from EV-certificates.
2522 jurisdictionOfIncorporationLocalityName,
2523 jurisdictionOfIncorporationStateOrProvinceName,
2524 jurisdictionOfIncorporationCountryName
2526 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA signing/verifying with bit
2529 ** libgnutls-extra: When in FIPS mode gnutls_global_init_extra()
2530 has to be called to register any required md5 handlers.
2532 ** libgnutls: Internal buffering code was replaced by simpler
2533 code contributed by Jonathan Bastien-Filiatrault.
2535 ** libgnutls: Internal API for extensions augmented to allow
2536 safe storing and loading of data on resumption. This allows writing
2537 self-contained extensions (when possible). As a side effect
2538 the OPRFI extension was removed.
2540 ** libgnutls: Added support for DSA-SHA256 and DSA-SHA224
2542 ** libgnutls: Added PKCS #11 support and an API to access objects in
2543 gnutls/pkcs11.h. Currently certificates and public keys can be
2544 imported from tokens, and operations can be performed on private keys.
2546 ** libgnutls: Added abstract gnutls_privkey_t and gnutls_pubkey_t
2548 ** libgnutls: Added initial support for the nettle library. It uses
2549 the system's random generator for seeding. That is /dev/urandom in Linux,
2550 system calls in Win32 and EGD on other systems.
2552 ** libgnutls: Corrected issue on the %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string. It now
2553 works even when resuming a session.
2555 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function() to replace the
2556 similar gnutls_certificate_set_server_retrieve_function() and
2557 gnutls_certificate_set_client_retrieve_function(). In addition it support
2558 PKCS #11 private keys.
2560 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt(), gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey(),
2561 and gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url() to allow copying and deleting data in tokens.
2563 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() et al. to allow select bit
2564 sizes for private keys using a human understandable scale.
2566 ** certtool: Added new options: --pkcs11-list-tokens, --pkcs11-list-all
2567 --pkcs11-list-all-certs, --pkcs11-list-trusted, --pkcs11-list-certs,
2568 --pkcs11-delete-url, --pkcs11-write
2570 certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
2571 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior can
2572 be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
2574 certtool: Added --certificate-pubkey to print the public key of the
2577 ** gnutls-cli/gnutls-serv: --x509cafile, --x509certfile and --x509keyfile
2578 can now accept a PKCS #11 URL in addition to a file. This will allow for
2579 example to use the Gnome-keyring trusted certificate list to verify
2580 connections using a url such as:
2581 pkcs11:token=Root%20CA%20Certificates;serial=1%3AROOTS%3ADEFAULT;model=1%2E0;manufacturer=Gnome%20Keyring

2662 * Version 2.10.1 (released 2010-07-25)
2664 ** libgnutls: Added support for broken certificates that indicate RSA
2667 ** gnutls-cli: Allow verification using V1 CAs.
2669 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_privkey_import() will fallback to
2670 gnutls_x509_privkey_import_pkcs8() without a password, if it
2671 is unable to decode the key.
2673 ** libgnutls: Correctly deinitialize crypto API functions to prevent
2674 a memory leak. Reported by Mads Kiilerich.
2676 ** certtool: If asked to generate DSA keys of size more than 1024 bits,
2677 issue a warning, that the output key might not be working everywhere.
2679 ** certtool: The --pkcs-cipher is taken into account when generating a
2680 private key. The default cipher used now is aes-128. The old behavior
2681 can be simulated by specifying "--pkcs-cipher 3des-pkcs12".
2683 ** API and ABI modifications:
2684 No changes since last version.
2686 * Version 2.10.0 (released 2010-06-25)
2688 ** API and ABI modifications:
2689 No changes since last version.
2691 * Version 2.9.12 (released 2010-06-17)
2693 ** gnutls-cli: Make --starttls work again.
2694 Problem introduced in patch to use read() instead of fgets() committed
2697 ** API and ABI modifications:
2698 No changes since last version.
2700 * Version 2.9.11 (released 2010-06-07)
2702 ** libgnutls: Removed two APIs related to safe renegotiation.
2703 Use priority strings instead. The APIs were
2704 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial and gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set.
2705 (Remember that we don't promise ABI stability during development
2706 series, so this doesn't cause an shared library ABI increment.)
2708 ** tests: More self testing of safe renegotiation extension.
2709 See tests/safe-renegotiation/README for more information.
2711 ** doc: a PDF version of the API reference manual (GTK-DOC) is now built.
2713 ** doc: Terms 'GNUTLS' and 'GNU TLS' were changed to 'GnuTLS' for consistency.
2715 ** API and ABI modifications:
2716 gnutls_safe_negotiation_set_initial: REMOVED.
2717 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_set: REMOVED.
2719 * Version 2.9.10 (released 2010-04-22)
2721 ** libgnutls: Time verification extended to trusted certificate list.
2722 Unless new constant GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS flag is
2725 ** certtool: Display postalCode and Name X.509 DN attributes correctly.
2726 Based on patch by Pavan Konjarla. Adds new constant
2727 GNUTLS_OID_X520_POSTALCODE and GNUTLS_OID_X520_NAME.
2729 ** libgnutls: Added Steve Dispensa's patch for safe renegotiation (RFC 5746)
2730 Solves the issue discussed in:
2731 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03928.html> and
2732 <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg03948.html>.
2733 Note that to allow connecting to unpatched servers the full protection
2734 is only enabled if the priority string %SAFE_RENEGOTIATION is
2735 specified. You can check whether protection is in place by querying
2736 gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status(). New error codes
2737 GNUTLS_E_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION_FAILED and
2738 GNUTLS_E_UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION_DENIED added.
2740 ** libgnutls: When checking openpgp self signature also check the signatures
2742 Ilari Liusvaara noticed and reported the issue and provided test
2745 ** libgnutls: Added cryptodev support (/dev/crypto).
2746 Tested with http://www.logix.cz/michal/devel/cryptodev/. Added
2747 benchmark utility for AES. Adds new error codes
2748 GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_IOCTL_ERROR and GNUTLS_E_CRYPTODEV_DEVICE_ERROR.
2750 ** libgnutls: Exported API to access encryption and hash algorithms.
2751 The new API functions are gnutls_cipher_decrypt, gnutls_cipher_deinit,
2752 gnutls_cipher_encrypt, gnutls_cipher_get_block_size,
2753 gnutls_cipher_init, gnutls_hash, gnutls_hash_deinit, gnutls_hash_fast,
2754 gnutls_hash_get_len, gnutls_hash_init, gnutls_hash_output,
2755 gnutls_hmac, gnutls_hmac_deinit, gnutls_hmac_fast,
2756 gnutls_hmac_get_len, gnutls_hmac_init, gnutls_hmac_output. New API
2757 constants are GNUTLS_MAC_SHA224 and GNUTLS_DIG_SHA224.
2759 ** libgnutls: Added gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function() to allow
2760 verification of certificate upon receipt rather than waiting until the
2761 end of the handshake.
2763 ** libgnutls: Don't send alerts during handshake.
2764 Instead new error code GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_SRP_USERNAME is added.
2766 ** certtool: Corrected two issues that affected certificate request generation.
2767 (1) Null padding is added on integers (found thanks to Wilankar Trupti),
2768 (2) In optional SignatureAlgorithm parameters field for DSA keys the DSA
2769 parameters were added. Those were rejected by Verisign. Gnutls no longer adds
2770 those parameters there since other implementations don't do either and having
2771 them does not seem to offer anything (anyway you need the signer's certificate
2772 to verify thus public key will be available). Found thanks to Boyan Kasarov.
2773 This however has the side-effect that public key IDs shown by certtool are
2774 now different than previous gnutls releases.
2775 (3) the option --pgp-certificate-info will verify self signatures
2777 ** certtool: Allow exporting of Certificate requests on DER format.
2779 ** certtool: New option --no-crq-extensions to avoid extensions in CSRs.
2781 ** gnutls-cli: Handle reading binary data from server.

2848 ** libgnutls: Fix for memory leaks on interrupted handshake.
2849 Reported by Tang Tong.
2851 ** libgnutls: Addition of support for TLS 1.2 signature algorithms
2852 ** extension and certificate verify field.
2853 This requires changes for TLS 1.2 servers and clients that use
2854 callbacks for certificate retrieval. They are now required to check
2855 with gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested() whether the certificate
2856 they send complies with the peer's preferences in signature
2859 ** libgnutls: In server side when resuming a session do not overwrite the
2860 ** initial session data with the resumed session data.
2862 ** libgnutls: Added support for AES-128, AES-192 and AES-256 in PKCS #8
2864 This affects also PKCS #12 encoded files. This adds the following new
2865 enums: GNUTLS_CIPHER_AES_192_CBC, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_128,
2866 GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_192, GNUTLS_PKCS_USE_PBES2_AES_256.
2868 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 encoding.
2869 The error you would get was "The OID is not supported.". Problem

2916 * Version 2.9.5 (released 2009-09-10)
2918 ** libgnutls: Add new functions to extract X.509 Issuer Alternative Names.
2919 The new functions are gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name2,
2920 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_name, and
2921 gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_alt_othername_oid. Contributed by Brad

2932 The new supported ciphersuites are AES-128/256 in CBC mode with
2933 ANON-DH/RSA/DHE-DSS/DHE-RSA. Contributed by Daiki Ueno. Further,
2934 SHA-256 is now the preferred default MAC (however it is only used with
2937 ** libgnutls: Make OpenPGP hostname checking work again.
2938 The patch to resolve the X.509 CN/SAN issue accidentally broken

2941 ** libgnutls: When printing X.509 certificates, handle XMPP SANs better.
2942 Reported by Howard Chu <hyc@symas.com> in
2943 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106975>.
2945 ** Fix use of deprecated types internally.
2946 Use of deprecated types in GnuTLS from now on will lead to a compile
2947 error, to prevent this from happening again.
2949 ** API and ABI modifications:
2950 No changes since last version.
2952 * Version 2.9.3 (released 2009-08-19)
2954 ** libgnutls: Support for TLS tickets was contributed by Daiki Ueno.
2955 The new APIs are gnutls_session_ticket_enable_client,
2956 gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server, and
2957 gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate.
2959 ** gnutls-cli, gnutls-serv: New parameter --noticket to disable TLS tickets.

2966 * Version 2.9.2 (released 2009-08-14)
2968 ** libgnutls: Fix problem with NUL bytes in X.509 CN and SAN fields.
2969 By using a NUL byte in CN/SAN fields, it was possible to fool GnuTLS
2970 into 1) not printing the entire CN/SAN field value when printing a
2971 certificate and 2) cause incorrect positive matches when matching a
2972 hostname against a certificate. Some CAs apparently have poor
2973 checking of CN/SAN values and issue these (arguable invalid)
2974 certificates. Combined, this can be used by attackers to become a
2975 MITM on server-authenticated TLS sessions. The problem is mitigated
2976 since attackers needs to get one certificate per site they want to
2977 attack, and the attacker reveals his tracks by applying for a
2978 certificate at the CA. It does not apply to client authenticated TLS
2979 sessions. Research presented independently by Dan Kaminsky and Moxie
2980 Marlinspike at BlackHat09. Thanks to Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com>
2981 for providing one part of the patch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-4] [CVE-2009-2730].
2983 ** libgnutls: Fix rare failure in gnutls_x509_crt_import.
2984 The function may fail incorrectly when an earlier certificate was
2985 imported to the same gnutls_x509_crt_t structure.
2987 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v2.3.
2989 ** libgnutls: Fix return value of gnutls_certificate_client_get_request_status.
2990 Before it always returned false. Reported by Peter Hendrickson
2991 <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
2992 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3668>.
2994 ** libgnutls: Fix off-by-one size computation error in unknown DN printing.
2995 The error resulted in truncated strings when printing unknown OIDs in
2996 X.509 certificate DNs. Reported by Tim Kosse
2997 <tim.kosse@filezilla-project.org> in

3000 ** libgnutls: Fix PKCS#12 decryption from password.
3001 The encryption key derived from the password was incorrect for (on
3002 average) 1 in every 128 input for random inputs. Reported by "Kukosa,
3003 Tomas" <tomas.kukosa@siemens-enterprise.com> in

3007 gnutls_dh_get_prime_bits, gnutls_rsa_export_get_modulus_bits, and
3008 gnutls_dh_get_peers_public_bits. Before the reported value was
3009 overestimated. Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
3010 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3607>.

3016 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3670>.
3018 ** libgnutls: Relax checking of required libtasn1/libgcrypt versions.
3019 Before we required that the runtime library used the same (or more
3020 recent) libgcrypt/libtasn1 as it was compiled with. Now we just check
3021 that the runtime usage is above the minimum required. Reported by
3022 Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it> via Andreas Metzler
3023 <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in <http://bugs.debian.org/540449>.

3061 VeriSign rejected CSRs with this padding. Reported by Wilankar Trupti
3062 <trupti.wilankar@hp.com> and Boyan Kasarov <bkasarov@gmail.com>.
3064 Note: As a side effect of this change, the "public key identifier"
3065 value computed for a certificate using this version of GnuTLS will be
3066 different from values computed using earlier versions of GnuTLS.
3068 ** libgnutls: For CSRs on DSA keys, don't add DSA parameters to the
3069 ** optional SignatureAlgorithm parameter field.
3070 VeriSign rejected these CSRs. They are stricly speaking not needed
3071 since you need the signer's certificate to verify the certificate
3072 signature anyway. Reported by Wilankar Trupti

3331 *** API/ABI changes in GnuTLS 2.8 compared to GnuTLS 2.6.x
3332 No offically supported interfaces have been modified or removed. The
3333 library should be completely backwards compatible on both the source
3336 The shared library no longer exports some symbols that have never been
3337 officially supported, i.e., not mentioned in any of the header files.
3343 Normally when symbols are removed, the shared library version has to
3344 be incremented. This leads to a significant cost for everyone using
3345 the library. Because none of the above symbols have ever been
3346 intended for use by well-behaved applications, we decided that the it
3347 would be better for those applications to pay the price rather than
3348 incurring problems on the majority of applications.
3350 If it turns out that applications have been using unofficial
3351 interfaces, we will need to release a follow-on release on the v2.8
3352 branch to exports additional interfaces. However, initial testing
3353 suggests that few if any applications have been using any of the
3356 Although not a new change compared to 2.6.x, we'd like to remind you
3357 interfaces have been modified so that X.509 chain verification now
3358 also checks activation/expiration times on certificates. The affected
3361 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify: CHANGED, checks activation/expiration times.
3362 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers: Likewise.
3363 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2: Likewise.

3366 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS: ADDED.
3368 This change in behaviour was made during the GnuTLS 2.6.x cycle, and
3369 we gave our rationale for it in earlier release notes.
3371 The following symbols have been added to the library:

3527 * Version 2.7.8 (released 2009-05-03)
3529 ** libgnutls: Fix DSA key generation.
3530 Merged from stable branch. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-2] [CVE-2009-1416]
3532 ** libgnutls: Check expiration/activation time on untrusted certificates.
3533 Merged from stable branch. Reported by Romain Francoise
3534 <romain@orebokech.com>. This changes the semantics of
3535 gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify, which in turn is used by
3536 gnutls_certificate_verify_peers and gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2.
3537 We add two new gnutls_certificate_status_t codes for reporting the new
3538 error condition, GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED and GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED.
3539 We also add a new gnutls_certificate_verify_flags flag,
3540 GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS, that can be used to disable the new
3541 behaviour. [GNUTLS-SA-2009-3] [CVE-2009-1417]
3543 ** lib: Linker version scripts reduces number of exported symbols.
3544 The linker version script now lists all exported ABIs explicitly, to
3545 avoid accidentally exporting unintended functions. Compared to
3546 before, most symbols beginning with _gnutls* are no longer exported.
3547 These functions have never been intended for use by applications, and
3548 there were no prototypes for these function in the public header
3549 files. Thus we believe it is possible to do this without incrementing
3550 the library ABI version which normally has to be done when removing an
3553 ** lib: Limit exported symbols on systems without LD linker scripts.
3554 Before all symbols were exported. Now we limit the exported symbols
3555 to (for libgnutls and libgnutls-extra) gnutls* and (for libgnutls)
3556 _gnutls*. This is a superset of the actual supported ABI, but still
3557 an improvement compared to before. This is implemented using Libtool
3558 -export-symbols-regex. It is more portable than linker version
3561 ** libgnutls: Incremented CURRENT/AGE libtool version to reflect new symbols.
3562 This should have been done in the last release.
3564 ** gnutls-serv: Listen on all interfaces, including both IPv4 and IPv6.
3565 Reported by Peter Hendrickson <pdh@wiredyne.com> in
3566 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3476>.
3568 ** doc: Improved sections for the info manual.
3569 We now follow the advice given by the texinfo manual on which
3570 directory categories to use. In particular, libgnutls moved from the
3571 'GNU Libraries' section to the 'Software libraries' and the command
3572 line tools moved from 'Network Applications' to 'System

3583 * Version 2.7.7 (released 2009-04-20)
3585 ** libgnutls: Applied patch by Cedric Bail to add functions
3586 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash() and gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm().
3588 ** gnutls.pc: Add -ltasn1 to 'pkg-config --libs --static gnutls' output.

3600 It is currently only used by the core library. This will enable a new
3601 domain 'gnutls' for translations of the command line tools.
3603 ** Corrected possible memory corruption on signature verification failure.
3604 Reported by Miroslav Kratochvil <exa.exa@gmail.com>
3606 ** API and ABI modifications:
3607 gnutls_x509_crt_verify_hash: ADDED
3608 gnutls_x509_crt_get_verify_algorithm: ADDED
3610 * Version 2.7.6 (released 2009-02-27)
3612 ** certtool: Query for multiple dnsName subjectAltName in interactive mode.
3613 This applies both to generating certificates and certificate requests.
3615 ** pkix.asn: Removed unneeded definitions to reduce memory usage.
3617 ** gnutls-cli: No longer accepts V1 CAs by default during X.509 chain verify.
3618 Use --priority NORMAL:%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT to permit V1 CAs to
3619 be used for chain verification.
3621 ** gnutls-serv: No longer disable MAC padding by default.
3622 Use --priority NORMAL:%COMPAT to disable MAC padding again.
3624 ** gnutls-cli: Certificate information output format changed.
3625 The tool now uses libgnutls' functions to print certificate
3626 information. This avoids code duplication.
3628 ** libgnutls: New priority strings %VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5
3629 ** and %VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT.
3630 They can be used to override the default certificate chain validation
3633 ** libgnutls: Added %SSL3_RECORD_VERSION priority string that allows to
3634 specify the client hello message record version. Used to overcome buggy
3635 TLS servers. Report by Martin von Gagern.
3637 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crt_print prints signature algorithm in oneline mode.
3639 ** libgnutls: gnutls_openpgp_crt_print supports oneline mode.
3641 ** doc: Update gnutls-cli and gnutls-serv --help output descriptions.
3643 ** API and ABI modifications:
3644 No changes since last version.
3646 * Version 2.7.5 (released 2009-02-06)
3648 ** libgnutls: Accept chains where intermediary certs are trusted.
3649 Before GnuTLS needed to validate the entire chain back to a
3650 self-signed certificate. GnuTLS will now stop looking when it has
3651 found an intermediary trusted certificate. The new behaviour is
3652 useful when chains, for example, contains a top-level CA, an
3653 intermediary CA signed using RSA-MD5, and an end-entity certificate.
3654 To avoid chain validation errors due to the RSA-MD5 cert, you can
3655 explicitly add the intermediary RSA-MD5 cert to your trusted certs.
3656 The signature on trusted certificates are not checked, so the chain
3657 has a chance to validate correctly. Reported by "Douglas E. Engert"
3658 <deengert@anl.gov> in
3659 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3661 ** libgnutls: result_size in gnutls_hex_encode now holds
3662 the size of the result. Report by John Brooks <special@dereferenced.net>.
3664 ** libgnutls: gnutls_handshake when sending client hello during a
3665 rehandshake, will not offer a version number larger than the current.
3666 Reported by Tristan Hill <stan@saticed.me.uk>.
3668 ** libgnutls: Permit V1 Certificate Authorities properly.
3669 Before they were mistakenly rejected even though
3670 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT and/or
3671 GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT were supplied. Reported by
3672 "Douglas E. Engert" <deengert@anl.gov> in
3673 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3351>.
3675 ** API and ABI modifications:
3676 No changes since last version.
3678 * Version 2.7.4 (released 2009-01-07)
3680 ** libgnutls: deprecate X.509 validation chains using MD5 and MD2 signatures.
3681 This is a bugfix -- the previous attempt to do this from internal x509
3682 certificate verification procedures did not return the correct value
3683 for certificates using a weak hash. Reported by Daniel Kahn Gillmor
3684 <dkg@fifthhorseman.net> in
3685 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3332>,
3686 debugged and patch by Tomas Mraz <tmraz@redhat.com> and Daniel Kahn
3687 Gillmor <dkg@fifthhorseman.net>.
3689 ** libgnutls: New interface to get key id for certificate requests.
3690 Patch from David Marín Carreño <davefx@gmail.com> in
3691 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3321>.
3693 ** libgnutls: gnutls_x509_crq_print will now also print public key id.
3695 ** certtool: --verify-chain now prints results of using library verification.
3696 Earlier, certtool --verify-chain used its own validation algorithm
3697 which wasn't guaranteed to give the same result as the libgnutls
3698 internal validation algorithm. Now this command print a new final
3699 line with header 'Chain verification output:' that contains the result
3700 from using the internal verification algorithm on the same chain.
3702 ** tests: Add crq_key_id self-test of gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id.
3704 ** API and ABI modifications:
3705 gnutls_x509_crq_get_key_id: ADDED.
3707 * Version 2.7.3 (released 2008-12-10)
3709 ** libgnutls: Fix chain verification for chains that ends with RSA-MD2 CAs.
3710 Reported by Michael Kiefer <Michael-Kiefer@web.de> in
3711 <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=507633> forwarded by
3712 Andreas Metzler <ametzler@downhill.at.eu.org> in
3713 <http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3309>.
3715 ** libgnutls: Libgcrypt initialization changed.
3716 If libgcrypt has not already been initialized, GnuTLS will now
3717 initialize libgcrypt with disabled secure memory. Initialize
3718 libgcrypt explicitly in your application if you want to enable secure
3719 memory. Before GnuTLS initialized libgcrypt to use GnuTLS's memory
3720 allocation functions, which doesn't use secure memory, so there is no
3721 real change in behaviour.
3723 ** libgnutls: Fix memory leak in PSK authentication.
3724 Reported by Michael Weiser <michael@weiser.dinsnail.net> in
3725 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.network.gnutls.general/1465>.
3727 ** libgnutls: Small byte reads via gnutls_record_recv() optimized.
3729 ** certtool: Move gcry_control(GCRYCTL_ENABLE_QUICK_RANDOM, 0) call earlier.
3730 It needs to be invoked before libgcrypt is initialized.
3732 ** gnutls-cli: Return non-zero exit code on error conditions.
3734 ** gnutls-cli: Corrected bug which caused a rehandshake request to be ignored.
3736 ** tests: Added chainverify self-test that tests X.509 chain verifications.
3738 ** API and ABI modifications:
3739 No changes since last version.
3741 * Version 2.7.2 (released 2008-11-18)
3743 ** libgnutls: Fix X.509 certificate chain validation error. [GNUTLS-SA-2008-3]
3744 The flaw makes it possible for man in the middle attackers (i.e.,
3745 active attackers) to assume any name and trick GnuTLS clients into
3746 trusting that name. Thanks for report and analysis from Martin von
3747 Gagern <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>. [CVE-2008-4989]
3749 Any updates with more details about this vulnerability will be added
3750 to <http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/security.html>
3752 ** libgnutls: Fix namespace issue with version symbols.
3753 The symbols LIBGNUTLS_VERSION, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR,
3754 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
3755 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER were renamed to GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER,
3756 GNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR, GNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH, and
3757 GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER respectively. The old symbols will continue to
3758 work but are deprecated.
3760 ** certtool: allow setting arbitrary key purpose object identifiers.
3762 ** libgnutls: Fix detection of C99 macros, to make debug logging work again.
3764 ** libgnutls: Add missing prototype for gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits.
3765 Reported by Kevin Quick <quick@sparq.org> in
3766 <https://savannah.gnu.org/support/index.php?106454>.
3768 ** libgnutls-extra: Make building with LZO compression work again.
3769 Build failure reported by Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis
3770 <arfrever.fta@gmail.com> in
3771 <http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.encryption.gpg.gnutls.devel/3194>.
3773 ** libgnutls: Change detection of when to use a linker version script.
3774 Use --enable-ld-version-script or --disable-ld-version-script to
3775 override auto-detection logic.
3777 ** doc: Change license on the manual to GFDLv1.3+.
3779 ** doc: GTK-DOC fixes for new splitted configuration system.
3781 ** doc: Texinfo stylesheet uses white background.
3783 ** tests: Add cve-2008-4989.c self-test.
3784 Tests regressions of the GNUTLS-SA-2008-3 security problem, and the
3785 follow-on problem with crashes on length 1 certificate chains.
3787 ** gnulib: Deprecated modules removed.
3788 Modules include memchr and memcmp.
3790 ** Fix warnings and build GnuTLS with more warnings enabled.
3792 ** minitasn1: Internal copy updated to libtasn1 v1.7.
3794 ** API and ABI modifications:
3795 gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_mem: ADDED

3803 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MINOR: DEPRECATED.
3804 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_PATCH: DEPRECATED.
3805 LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER: DEPRECATED.
3807 * Version 2.7.1 (released 2008-10-31)
3809 ** certtool: print a PKCS #8 key even if it is not encrypted.
3811 ** Old libgnutls.m4 and libgnutls-config scripts removed.
3812 Please use pkg-config instead.
3814 ** Configuration system modified.
3815 There is now a configure script in lib/ and libextra/ as well, because
3816 gnulib works better with a config.h per gnulib directory.
3818 ** API and ABI modifications:
3819 No changes since last version.
3821 * Version 2.7.0 (released 2008-10-16)

3841 ** libgnutlsxx: Define server_session::get_srp_username even if no SRP.
3843 ** tests: Make tests compile when using internal libtasn1.
3844 Patch by ludo@gnu.org (Ludovic Courtès).
3846 ** Changed detection of libtasn1 and libgcrypt to avoid depending on *-config.
3847 We now require a libgcrypt that has Camellia constants declared in
3848 gcrypt.h, which means v1.3.0 or later.
