505: <ul>
506:
507: <li> libtls now supports ALPN and SNI
508:
509: <li> libtls adds a new callback interface for integrating custom IO
510: functions. Thanks to Tobias Pape.
511:
512: <li> libtls now handles 4 cipher suite groups:
513: <Ul>
514: <li> "secure" (TLSv1.2+AEAD+PFS)
515: <li> "compat" (HIGH:!aNULL)
516: <li> "legacy" (HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL)
517: <li> "insecure" (ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL)
518: </ul>
519: This allows for flexibility and finer grained control, rather than
520: having two extremes (an issue raised by Marko Kreen some time ago).
521:
522: <li> Tightened error handling for tls_config_set_ciphers().
523:
524: <li> libtls now always loads CA, key and certificate files at the time the
525: configuration function is called. This simplifies code and results in
526: a single memory based code path being used to provide data to libssl.
527:
528: <li> Add support for OCSP intermediate certificates.
529:
530: <li> Added functions used by stunnel and exim from BoringSSL - this
531: brings in X509_check_host, X509_check_email, X509_check_ip, and
532: X509_check_ip_asc.
533:
534: <li> Added initial support for iOS, thanks to Jacob Berkman.
535:
536: <li> Improved behavior of arc4random on Windows when using memory leak
537: analysis software.
538:
539: <li> Correctly handle an EOF that occurs prior to the TLS handshake
540: completing. Reported by Vasily Kolobkov, based on a diff from Marko
541: Kreen.
542:
543: <li> Limit the support of the "backward compatible" ssl2 handshake to
544: only be used if TLS 1.0 is enabled.
545:
546: <li> Fix incorrect results in certain cases on 64-bit systems when
547: BN_mod_word() can return incorrect results. BN_mod_word() now can
548: return an error condition. Thanks to Brian Smith.
549:
550: <li> Added constant-time updates to address CVE-2016-0702
551:
552: <li> Fixed undefined behavior in BN_GF2m_mod_arr()
553:
554: <li> Removed unused Cryptographic Message Support (CMS)
555:
556: <li> More conversions of long long idioms to time_t
557:
558: <li> Improved compatibility by avoiding printing NULL strings with
559: printf.
560:
561: <li> Reverted change that cleans up the EVP cipher context in
562: EVP_EncryptFinal() and EVP_DecryptFinal(). Some software relies on the
563: previous behaviour.
564:
565: <li> Avoid unbounded memory growth in libssl, which can be triggered
566: by a TLS client repeatedly renegotiating and sending OCSP Status
567: Request TLS extensions.
568:
569: <li> Avoid falling back to a weak digest for (EC)DH when using SNI
570: with libssl.
571:
572: <li> X509_cmp_time() now passes a malformed GeneralizedTime field as
573: an error. Reported by Theofilos Petsios.
574:
575: <li> Detect zero-length encrypted session data early, instead of when
576: malloc(0) fails or the HMAC check fails. Noted independently by
577: jsing@ and Kurt Cancemi.
578:
579: <li> Check for and handle failure of HMAC_{Update,Final} or
580: EVP_DecryptUpdate().
581:
582: <li> Massive update and normalization of manpages, conversion to
583: mandoc format. Many pages were rewritten for clarity and accuracy.
584: Portable doc links are up-to-date with a new conversion tool.
585:
586: <li> Curve25519 Key Exchange support.
587:
588: <li> Support for alternate chains for certificate verification.
589:
590: <li> Code cleanups, CBB conversions, further unification of DTLS/SSL
591: handshake code, further ASN1 macro expansion and removal.
592:
1.64 beck 593: <li> Private symbols are now hidden in libssl and libcrypto.
1.61 beck 594:
595: <li> Friendly certificate verification error messages in libtls, peer
596: verification is now always enabled.
597:
1.64 beck 598: <li> Added OCSP stapling support to libtls and nc.
1.61 beck 599:
600: <li> Added ocspcheck utility to validate a certificate against its OCSP
601: responder and save the reply for stapling
602:
603: <li> Enhanced regression tests and error handling for libtls.
604:
605: <li> Added explicit constant and non-constant time BN functions,
606: defaulting to constant time wherever possible.
607:
608: <li> Moved many leaked implementation details in public structs behind
609: opaque pointers.
610:
611: <li> Added ticket support to libtls.
612:
613: <li> Added support for setting the supported EC curves via
614: SSL{_CTX}_set1_groups{_list}() - also provide defines for the
615: previous SSL{_CTX}_set1_curves{_list} names. This also changes
616: the default list of curves to be X25519, P-256 and P-384. All
617: other curves must be manually enabled.
618:
619: <li> Added -groups option to openssl(1) s_client for specifying the
620: curves to be used in a colon-separated list.
621:
622: <li> Merged client/server version negotiation code paths into one,
623: reducing much duplicate code.
624:
625: <li> Removed error function codes from libssl and libcrypto.
626:
627: <li> Fixed an issue where a truncated packet could crash via an OOB
628: read.
629:
630: <li> Added SSL_OP_NO_CLIENT_RENEGOTIATION option that disallows
631: client-initiated renegotiation. This is the default for libtls
632: servers.
633:
634: <li> Avoid a side-channel cache-timing attack that can leak the ECDSA
635: private keys when signing. This is due to BN_mod_inverse() being
636: used without the constant time flag being set. Reported by Cesar
637: Pereida Garcia and Billy Brumley (Tampere University of
638: Technology). The fix was developed by Cesar Pereida Garcia.
639:
640: <li> iOS and MacOS compatibility updates from Simone Basso and Jacob
641: Berkman.
642:
643: <li> Added the recallocarray(3) memory allocation function, and
644: converted various places in the library to use it, such as CBB
645: and BUF_MEM_grow. recallocarray(3) is similar to
646: reallocarray. Newly allocated memory is cleared similar to
647: calloc(3). Memory that becomes unallocated while shrinking or
648: moving existing allocations is explicitly discarded by unmapping
649: or clearing to 0.
650:
651: <li> Added new root CAs from SECOM Trust Systems / Security
652: Communication of Japan.
653:
654: <li> Added EVP interface for MD5+SHA1 hashes.
655:
656: <li> Fixed DTLS client failures when the server sends a certificate
657: request.
658:
659: <li> Correct handling of padding when upgrading an SSLv2 challenge
660: into an SSLv3/TLS connection.
661:
662: <li> Allow protocols and ciphers to be set on a TLS config object in
663: libtls.
664:
665: <li> Improved nc(1) TLS handshake CPU usage and server-side error
1.65 beck 666: reporting.
667:
668: <li> Add a constant time version of BN_gcd and use it default for
669: BN_gcd to avoid the possibility of sidechannel timing attacks
670: against RSA private key generation - Thanks to Alejandro

1065: <blockquote><pre>
1066: # <b>cd /usr/ports</b>

1069:
1070: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
1071: server.]
1072: <p>
1073: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1074: ports for the 6.1 release will be made available if problems arise.
1075: <p>
1076: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
1077: would like to know more, the mailing list
