Version 1.11.9, 2014-04-10
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- * Fix a bug in primality testing introduced in 1.8.3 which caused
- only a single random base, rather than a sequence of random bases,
- to be used in the Miller-Rabin test. This increased the probability
- that a non-prime would be accepted, for instance a 1024 bit number
- would be incorrectly classed as prime with probability around
- 2^-40. Reported by Jeff Marrison.
-
- * X.509 path validation now returns a set of all errors that occurred
- during validation, rather than immediately returning the first
- detected error. This prevents a seemingly innocuous error (such as
- an expired certificate) from hiding an obviously serious error
- (such as an invalid signature). The Certificate_Status_Code enum is
- now ordered by severity, and the most severe error is returned by
- Path_Validation_Result::result(). The entire set of status codes is
- available with the new all_statuses call.
-
- * Fixed a bug in OCSP response decoding which would cause an error
- when attempting to decode responses from some widely used
- responders.
-
- * An implementation of HMAC_DRBG RNG from NIST SP800-90A has been
- added. Like the X9.31 PRNG implementation, it uses another
- underlying RNG for seeding material.
-
- * An implementation of the RFC 6979 deterministic nonce generator has
- been added.
-
- * Fix a bug in certificate path validation which prevented successful
- validation if intermediate certificates were presented out of order.
-
- * Fix a bug introduced in 1.11.5 which could cause crashes or other
- incorrect behavior when a cipher mode filter was followed in the
- pipe by another filter, and that filter had a non-empty start_msg.
-
- * The types.h header now uses stdint.h rather than cstdint to avoid
- problems with Clang on OS X.
