1 June 27th, 2005
2 v1.05
3 -- Added Technote #6 which covers the current PK compliance.
4 -- Fixed buffer overflow in OAEP decoder
5 -- Added CHOICE to the list of ASN.1 types
6 -- Added UTCTIME to the list of ASN.1 types
7 -- Added MUTEX locks around descriptor table functions [but not on the functions that are dependent on them]
8 All functions call *_is_valid() before using a descriptor index which means the respective table must be unlocked before
9 it can be accessed. However, during the operation [e.g. CCM] if the descriptor has been altered the results will be
10 undefined.
11 -- Minor updates to the manual to reflect recent changes
12 -- Added a catch to for an error that should never come up in rsa_exptmod(). Just being thorough.
13
14 June 15th, 2005
15 v1.04
16 -- Fixed off by one [bit] error in dsa_make_key() it was too high by one bit [not a security problem just inconsistent]
17 -- ECC-224 curve was wrong [it was an ok curve just not NIST, so no security flaw just interoperability].
18 -- Removed point compression since it slows down ECC ops to save a measly couple bytes.
19 This makes the ecc export format incompatible with 1.03 [it shouldn't change in the future]
20 -- Removed ECC-160 from timing and added the other curves
21
22 June 9th, 2005
23 v1.03
24 -- Users may want to note that on a P4/GCC3.4 platform "-fno-regmove" greatly accelerates the ciphers/hashes.
25 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
26 -- Made it install the testing library in the icc/static makefiles
27 -- Found bug in ccm_memory.c which would fail to compile when LTC_CLEAN_STACK was enabled
28 -- Simon Johnson proposed I do a fully automated test suite. Hence "testme.sh" was born
29 -- Added LTC_NO_TEST which forces test vectors off (regardless of what tomcrypt_custom.h has)
30 -- Added LTC_NO_TABLES which disables large tables (where possible, regardless of what tomcrypt_custom.h has)
31 -- New test script found a bug in twofish.c when TABLES was disabled. Yeah testing!
32 -- Added a LTC_FAST specific test to the testing software.
33 -- Updated test driver to actually halt on errors and just print them out (useful for say... automated testing...)
34 -- Added bounds checking to Pelican MAC
35 -- Added BIT and OCTET STRING to the ASN.1 side of things.
36 -- Pekka Riikonen pointed out that my ctr_start() function should accept the counter mode.
37 -- Cleaned up warnings in testprof
38 -- Removed redundant mu and point mapping in ecc_verify_hash() so it should be a bit faster now
39 -- Pekka pointed out that the AES key structure was using 32 bytes more than it ought to.
40 -- Added quick defines to remove entire classes of algorithms. This makes it easier if you want to build with just
41 one algorithm (say AES or SHA-256). Defines are LTC_NO_CIPHERS, LTC_NO_MODES, LTC_NO_HASHES, LTC_NO_MACS,
42 LTC_NO_PRNGS, LTC_NO_PK, LTC_NO_PKCS
43 -- As part of the move for ECC to X9.62 I've changed the signature algorithm to EC DSA. No API changes.
44 -- Pekka helped me clean up the PKCS #1 v2.1 [OAEP/PSS] code
45 -- Wrote new DER SEQUENCE coder/decoder
46 -- RSA, DSA and ECDSA now use the DER SEQUENCE code (saves a lot of code!)
47 -- DSA output is now a DER SEQUENCE (so not compatible with previous releases).
48 -- Added Technote #5 which shows how to build LTC on an AMD64 to have a variety of algorithms in only ~80KB of code.
49 -- Changed temp variable in LOAD/STORE macros to "ulong32" for 32-bit ops. Makes it safer on Big endian platforms
50 -- Added INSTALL_GROUP and INSTALL_USER which you can specify on the build to override the default USER/GROUP the library
51 is to be installed as
52 -- Removed "testprof" from the default build.
53 -- Added IA5, NULL and Object Identifier to the list of ASN.1 DER supported types
54 -- The "no_oops" target (part of zipup) now scans for non-cvs files. This helps prevent temp/scratch files from appearing in releases ;-)
55 -- Added DERs for missing hashes, but just the OID not the PKCS #1 v1.5 additions.
56 -- Removed PKCS #1 v1.5 from the tree since it's taking up space and you ought to use v2.1 anyways
57 -- Kevin Kenny pointed out a few stray // comments
58 -- INTEGER code properly supports negatives and zero padding [Pekka!]
59 -- Sorted asn1/der/ directory ... less of a mess now ;-)
60 -- Added PRINTABLE STRING type
61 -- Removed ECC-160 as it wasn't a standard curve
62 -- Made ecc_shared_secret() ANSI X9.63 compliant
63 -- Changed "printf" to "fprintf(stderr, " in the testbench... ;-)
64 -- Optimized the GCM table creation. On 1KB packets [with key switching] the new GCM is 12.7x faster than before.
65 -- Changed OID representation for hashes to be just a list of unsigned longs (so you can compare against them nicely after decoding a sequence)
66 -- ECC code now uses Montgomery reduction ... it's even faster [ECC-256 make key down from 37.4M to 4.6M cycles on an Athlon64]
67 -- Added SHORT_INTEGER so users can easily store DER encoded INTEGER types without using the bignum math library
68 -- Fixed OMAC code so that with LTC_FAST it doesn't require that LTC_FAST_TYPE divides 16 [it has to divide the block size instead]
69 -- ECC key export is now a simple [and documented] SEQUENCE, the "encrypt_key" also uses a new SEQUENCE format.
70 -- Thanks goes to the following testers
71 Michael Brown - Solaris 10/uSPARCII
72 Richard Outerbridge - MacOS
73 Martin Carpenter - Solaris 8/uSPARCII [Thanks for cleaning up the scripts]
74 Greg Rose - ... SunOS 5.8/SPARC [... what's with the SPARCS?]
75 Matt Johnston - MacOS X [Thanks for pointing out GCC 4 problems with -Os]
76
77 April 19th, 2005
78 v1.02
79 -- Added LTC_TEST support to gcm_test()
80 -- "pt/ct" can now be NULL in gcm_process() if you are processing zero bytes
81 -- Optimized GCM by removing the "double copy" handling of the plaintext/aad
82 -- Richard Outerbridge pointed out that x86_prof won't build on MACOS and that the manual
83 erroneously refers to "mycrypt" all over the place. Fixed.
84
85 April 17th, 2005
86 v1.01
87 ** Secure Science Corporation has supported this release cycle by sponsoring the development time taken. Their
88 continuing support of this project has helped me maintain a steady pace in order to keep LibTomCrypt up to date,
89 stable and more efficient.
90 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
91 -- Updated base64_decode.c so if there are more than 3 '=' signs it would stop parsing
92 -- Merged in latest mpi that fixed a few bugs here and there
93 -- Updated OAEP encoder/decoder to catch when the hash output is too large
94 Cleaned up PSS code too
95 -- Andy Bontoft fixed a bug in my demos/tests/makefile.msvc ... seems "dsa_test.c" isn't an object
96 afterall. Thanks.
97 -- Made invalid ECC key sizes (configuration) not hard fault the program (it returns an error code now)
98 -- SAFER has been re-enabled after I was pointed to http://www.ciphersbyritter.com/NEWS2/95032301.HTM
99 [Mark Kotiaho]
100 -- Added CCM mode to the encauth list (now has EAX, OCB and CCM, c'est un treo magnifique!)
101 -- Added missing ASN.1 header to the RSA keys ... oops... now the rsa_export/import are FULLY compatible
102 with other libs like OpenSSL (comment: Test vectors would go a long way RSA...)
103 -- Manually merged in fix to the prime_random_ex() LTM function that ensures the 2nd MSB is set properly. Now
104 When you say "I want a 1024/8 byte RSA key" the MSB bit of the modulus is set as expected. Note I generally
105 don't view this as a "huge issue" but it's just one less nit to worry about. [Bryan Klisch]
106 -- A new CVS has been setup on my Athlon64 box... if you want developer access send me an email (and at this point the email would have to be awesome).
107 -- Updated API for ECB and CBC shell code. Now can process N whole blocks in one call (like $DEITY intended)
108 -- Introduced a new "hardware accel" framework that can be used to speed up cipher ECB, CBC and CTR mode
109 calls. Later on dependent code (e.g. OMAC, CCM) will be re-written to use the generic cbc/ctr functions. But now
110 if you [say] call ctr_encrypt() with a cipher descriptor that has hardware CTR it will automatically
111 be used (e.g. no code rewrites)
112 -- Now ships with 20% more love.
113 -- x86_prof now uses ECB shell code (hint: accelerators) and outputs cycles per BLOCK not byte. This will make it a bit
114 easier to compare hardware vs. software cipher implementations. It also emits timings for CBC and CTR modes
115 -- [Peter LaDow] fixed a typo w.r.t. XREALLOC macro (spelling counts kids!)
116 -- Fixed bug with __x86_64__ where ROL64/ROR64 with LTC_NO_ROLC would be the 32-bit versions instead...
117 -- Shipping with preliminary GCM code (disabled). It's buggy (stack overflow hidden somewhere). If anyone can spot it let me know.
118 -- Added Pelican MAC [it's an AES based fast MAC] to the list of supported MACs
119 -- Added LTC_FAST [and you can disable by defining LTC_NO_FAST] so that CBC and CTR mode XOR whole words [e.g. 32 or 64 bits] at a time
120 instead of one byte. On my AMD64 this reduced the overhead for AES-128-CBC from 4.56 cycles/byte to around 1 cycle/byte. This requires
121 that you either allow unaligned read/writes [e.g. x86_32/x86_64] or align all your data. It won't go out of it's way to ensure
122 aligned access. Only enabled for x86_* platforms by default since they allow unaligned read/writes.
123 -- Added LTC_FAST support to PMAC (drops the cycle/byte by about 9 cycles on my AMD64) [note: I later rewrote this prior to release]
124 -- Updated "profiled" target to work with the new directory layout
125 -- Added [demo only] optimized RC5-CTR code to x86_prof demo to show off how to make an accelerator
126 [This has been removed prior to release... It may re-appear later]
127 -- Added CCM acelerator callbacks to the list [now supports ECB, CTR, CBC and now CCM].
128 -- Added chapter to manual about accelerators (you know you want it)
129 -- Added "bswap" optimizations to x86 LOAD/STORE with big endian. Can be disabled by defining LTC_NO_BSWAP
130 -- LTC_NO_ASM is now the official "disable all non-portable stuff" macro. When defined it will make the code endian-neutral,
131 disable any form of ASM and disable LTC_FAST load/stores. Essentially build the library with this defined if you're having
132 trouble building the library (old GCCs for instance dislike the ROLc macro)
133 -- Added tomcrypt_mac.h and moved MAC/encMAC functions from tomcrypt_hash.h into it
134 -- Added "done" function to ciphers and the five chaining modes [and things like omac/pmac/etc]
135 -- Changed install group to "wheel" from "root".
136 -- Replaced // comments with /**/ so it will build on older UNIX-like platforms
137 -- x86_prof builds and runs with IntelCC fine now
138 -- Added "stest" build to intel CC to test static linked from within the dir (so you don't have to install to test)
139 -- Moved testing/benchmark into testprof directory and build it as part of the build. Now you can link against libtomcrypt_prof.a to get
140 testing info (hint: hardware developers ;-) )
141 -- Added CCM to tv_gen
142 -- Added demos to MSVC makefile
143 -- Removed -funroll-all-loops from GCC makefile and replaced with -funroll-loops which is a bit more sane (P4 ain't got much cache for the IDATA)
144 -- Fixed GCM prior to release and re-enabled it. It has not been optimized but it does conform when compiled with optimizations.
145 -- I've since optimized GCM and CCM. They're close in speed but GCM is more flexible imho (though EAX is more flexible than both)
146 -- For kicks I optimized the ECC code to use projective points. Gets between 3.21x (Prescott P4) to 4.53x (AMD64) times faster than before at 160-bit keys and the
147 speedup grows as the keysize grows. Basically removing most practical reasons to "not use the ECC code". Enjoy.
148 -- Added LTC_FAST support to OMAC/PMAC and doubled it's speed on my amd64 [faster on the P4 too I guess]
149 -- Added GCM to tv_gen
150 -- Removed "makefile.cygwin_dll" as it's not really used by anyone and not worth the effort (hell I hardly maintain the MSVC makefiles ...)
151 -- Updated a few files in the "misc" directory to have correct @file comments for doxygen
152 -- Removed "profile" target since it was slower anyways (go figure...)
153
154 December 31st, 2004
155 v1.00
156 -- Added "r,s == 0" check to dsa_verify_hash()
157 -- Added "multi block" helpers for hash, hmac, pmac and omac routines so you can process multiple non-adjacent
158 blocks of data with one call (added demos/multi.c to make sure they work)
159 -- Note these are not documented but they do have doxygen comments inside them
160 -- Also I don't use them in other functions (like pkcs_5_2()) because I didn't have the time. Job for the new LTC maintainer ;-)
161 -- Added tweaked Anubis test vectors and made it default (undefined ANUBIS_TWEAK to get original Anubis)
162 -- Merged in fix for mp_prime_random_ex() to deal with MSB and LSB "bugs"
163 -- Removed tim_exptmod() completely, updated several RSA functions (notably v15 and the decrypt/verify) so they
164 don't require a prng now
165 -- This release brought to you by the fine tunes of Macy Gray. We miss you.
166
167 December 23rd, 2004
168 v1.00rc1
169 -- Renamed "mycrypt_*" to "tomcrypt_*" to be more specific and professional
170 Now just include "tomcrypt.h" instead of "mycrypt.h" to get LTC ;-)
171 -- Cleaned up makefiles to ensure all headers are correctly installed
172 -- Added "rotate by constant" macros for portable, x86-32 and x86-64
173 You can disable this new code with LTC_NO_ROLC which is useful for older GCCs
174 -- Cleaned up detection of x86-64 so it works for ROL/ROR macros
175 -- Fixed rsa_import() so that it would detect multi-prime RSA keys and error appropriately
176 -- Sorted the source files by category and updated the makefiles appropriately
177 -- Added LTC_DER define so you can trim out DER code if not required
178 -- Fixed up RSA's decrypt functions changing "res" to "stat" to be more in sync
179 with the signature variables nomenclature. (no code change just renamed the arguments)
180 -- Removed all labels starting with __ and replaced with LBL_ to avoid namespace conflicts (Randy Howard)
181 -- Merged in LTM fix to mp_prime_random_ex() which zap'ed the most significant byte if the bit size
182 requested was a multiple of eight.
183 -- Made RSA_TIMING off by default as it's not terribly useful [and likely to be deprecated]
184 -- Renamed SMALL_CODE, CLEAN_STACK and NO_FILE to have a LTC_ prefix to avoid namespace collisions
185 with other programs. e.g. SMALL_CODE => LTC_SMALL_CODE
186 -- Zed Shaw pointed out that on certain systems installing libs as "root" isn't possible as the super-user
187 is not root. Now the makefiles allow this to be changed easily.
188 -- Renamed "struct _*_descriptor" to "struct ltc_*_descriptor" to avoid using a leading _
189 Also renamed _ARGCHK to LTC_ARGCHK
190 -- Zed Shaw pointed out that I still defined the prng structs in tomcrypt_prng.h even if they
191 weren't defined. This made undef'ing FORTUNA break the build.
192 -- Added LTC_NO_ASM to disable inline asm macros [ROL/ROR/etc]
193 -- Changed RSA decrypt functions to change the output length variable name from "keylen" to "outlen" to make
194 it more consistent.
195 -- Added the 64-bit Khazad block cipher [NESSIE]
196 -- Added the 128-bit Anubis block cipher [with key support for 128...320 bit keys] [NESSIE]
197 -- Changes to several MAC functions to rename input arguments to more sensible names
198 -- Removed FAST_PK support from dh_sys.c
199 -- Declared deskey() from des.c as static instead of a global
200 -- Added pretty much all practical GCC warning tests to the GCC [related] makefiles. These additional
201 warnings can easily be disabled for those with older copies of GCC [or even non GNU cc's]
202 -- Added doxygen @ tags to the code... phew that was a hell of a lot of [repetitive] work
203 -- Also added pre-configured Doxygen script.
204 -- Cleaned up quite a few functions [ciphers, pk, etc] to make the parameters naming style consistent
205 E.g. ciphers keys are called "skey" consistently now. The input to PK encryption is called "in", etc.
206 These changes require no code changes on the behalf of developers fortunately
207 -- Started a SAFER+ optimizer [does encrypt only] which shaves a good 30 or so cycles/byte on my AMD64
208 at an expense of huge code. It's in notes/etc/saferp_optimizer.c
209 -- DSA sign/verify now uses DER encoded output/inputs and no LTC style headers.
210 -- Matt Johnston found a missing semi-colon in mp_exptmod(). Fix has been merged in.
211
212 October 29th, 2004
213 v0.99 -- Merged in the latest version of LTM which includes all of the recent bug fixes
214 -- Deprecated LTMSSE and removed it (to be replaced with TFM later on)
215 -- Stefan Arentz pointed out that mp_s_rmap should be extern
216 -- Kristian Gj�steen pointed out that there are typos in the
217 "test" makefile and minor issues in Yarrow and Sober [just cosmetics really]
218 -- Matthew P. Cashdollar pointed out that "export" is a C++ keyword
219 so changed the PRNG api to use "pexport" and "pimport"
220 -- Updated "hashsum" demo so it builds ;-)
221 -- Added automatic support for x86-64 (will configure for 64-bit little endian automagically)
222 -- Zhi Chen pointed out a bug in rsa_exptmod which would leak memory on error.
223 -- Made hash functions "init" return an int. slight change to API ;-(
224 -- Added "CHC" mode which turns any cipher into a hash the other LTC functions can use
225 -- Added CHC mode stuff to demos such as tv_gen and hashsum
226 -- Added "makefile.shared" which builds and installs shared/static object copies
227 of the library.
228 -- Added DER for bignum support
229 -- RSA is now fully joy. rsa_export/rsa_import use PKCS #1 encodings and should be
230 compatible with other crypto libs that use the format.
231 -- Added support for x86-64 for the ROL/ROR macros
232 -- Changed the DLL and SO makefiles to optimize for speed, commented SMALL_CODE in
233 mycrypt_custom.h and added -DSMALL_CODE to the default makefile
234 -- Updated primality testing code so it does a minimum of 5 tests [of Miller-Rabin]
235 (AFAIK not a security fix, just warm fuzzies)
236 -- Minor updates to the OMAC code (additional __ARGCHK and removed printf from omac_test... oops!)
237 -- Update build and configuration info which was really really really out of date. (Chapter 14)
238 ++ Minor update, switch RSA to use the PKCS style CRT
239
240 August 6th, 2004
241 v0.98 -- Update to hmac_init to free all allocated memory on error
242 -- Update to PRNG API to fix import/export functions of Fortuna and Yarrow
243 -- Added test functions to PRNG api, RC4 now conforms ;-) [was a minor issue]
244 -- Added the SOBER-128 PRNG based off of code donated by Greg Rose.
245 -- Added Tech Note #4 [notes/tech0004.txt]
246 -- Changed RC4 back [due to request]. It will now XOR the output so you can use it like
247 a stream cipher easily.
248 -- Update Fortuna's export() to emit a hash of each pool. This means that the accumulated
249 entropy that was spread over all the pools isn't entirely lost when you export/import.
250 -- Zhi Chen suggested a comment for rsa_encrypt_key() to let users know [easily] that it was
251 PKCS #1 v2.0 padding. (updated other rsa_* functions)
252 -- Cleaned up Noekeon to remove unrolling [wasn't required, was messy and actually slower with GCC/ICC]
253 -- Updated RC4 so that when you feed it >256 bytes of entropy it quietly ignores additional
254 bytes. Also removed the % from the key setup to speed it up a bit.
255 -- Added cipher/hash/prng tests to x86_prof to help catch bugs while testing
256 -- Made the PRNG "done" return int, fixed sprng_done to not require prng* to be non-null
257 -- Spruced up mycrypt_custom.h to trap more errors and also help prevent LTMSSE from being defined
258 on non-i386 platforms by accident.
259 -- Added RSA/ECC/DH speed tests to x86_prof and cleaned it up to build with zero warnings
260 -- Changed Fortuna to count only entropy [not the 2 byte header] added to pool[0] into the
261 reseed mechanism.
262 -- Added "export_size" member to prng_descriptor tables so you can know in advance the size of
263 the exported state for any given PRNG.
264 -- Ported over patch on LTM 0.30 [not ready to release LTM 0.31] that fixes bug in mp_mul()/mp_div()
265 that used to result in negative zeroes when you multiplied zero by a negative integer.
266 (patch due to "Wolfgang Ehrhardt" <[email protected]>)
267 -- Fixed rsa_*decrypt_key() and rsa_*verify_hash() to default to invalid "stat" or "res". This way
268 if any of the higher level functions fail [before you get to the padding] the result will be in
269 a known state]. Applied to both v2 and v1.5 padding helpers.
270 -- Added MACs to x86_prof
271 -- Fixed up "warnings" in x86_prof and tv_gen
272 -- Added a "profiled" target back [for GCC 3.4 and ICC v8]. Doesn't seem to help but might be worth
273 tinkering with.
274 -- Beefed up load/store test in demos/test
275
276 ++ New note, in order to use the optimized LOAD/STORE macros your platform
277 must support unaligned 32/64 bit load/stores. The x86s support this
278 but some [ARM for instance] do not. If your platform cannot perform
279 unaligned operations you must use the endian neutral code which is safe for
280 any sort of platform.
281
282 July 23rd, 2004
283 v0.97b -- Added PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA encrypt/sign helpers (like rsa_sign_hash, etc...)
284 -- Added missing prng check to rsa_decrypt_key() [not critical as I don't use
285 descriptors directly in that function]
286 -- Merged in LTM-SSE, define LTMSSE before you build and you will get SSE2 optimized math ;-)
287 (roughly 3x faster on a P4 Northwood). By default it will compile as ISO C portable
288 code (when LTMSSE is undefined).
289 -- Fixed bug in ltc_tommath.h where I had the kara/toom cutoffs not marked as ``extern''
290 Thanks to "Stefan Arentz" <stefan at organicnetwork.net>
291 -- Steven Dake <[email protected]> and Richard Amacker <[email protected]> submitted patches to
292 fix pkcs_5_2(). It now matches the output of another crypto library. Whoops... hehehe
293 -- Updated PRNG api. Added Fortuna PRNG to the list of supported PRNGs
294 -- Fixed up the descriptor tables since globals are automatically zero'ed on startup.
295 -- Changed RC4 to store it's output. If you want to encrypt with RC4
296 you'll have to do the XOR yourself.
297 -- Fixed buffer overflows/overruns in the HMAC code.
298
299 ++ API change for the PRNGs there now is a done() function per PRNG. You
300 should call it when you are done with a prng state. So far it's
301 not absolutely required (won't cause problems) but is a good idea to
302 start.
303
304
305 June 23rd, 2004
306 v0.97a ++ Fixed several potentially crippling bugs... [read on]
307 -- Fixed bug in OAEP decoder that would incorrectly report
308 buffer overflows. [Zhi Chen]
309 -- Fixed headers which had various C++ missing [extern "C"]'s
310 -- Added "extern" to sha384_desc descriptor which I removed by mistake
311 -- Fixed bugs in ENDIAN_BIG macros using the wrong byte order [Matt Johnston]
312 -- Updated tiger.c and des.c to not shadow "round" which is intrinsic on
313 some C compilers.
314 -- Updated demos/test/rsa_test.c to test the RSA functionality better
315 ++ This update has been tested with GCC [v3.3.3], ICC [v8] and MSVC [v6+SP6]
316 all on a x86 P4 [GCC/ICC tested in Gentoo Linux, MSVC in WinXP]
317 ++ Outcome: The bug Zhi Chen pointed out has been fixed. So have the bugs
318 that Matt Johnston found.
319
320 June 19th, 2004
321 v0.97 -- Removed spurious unused files [arrg!]
322 -- Patched buffer overflow in tim_exptmod()
323 -- Fixed buffer overrun bug in pkcs_1_v15_es_decode()
324 -- Reduced stack usage in PKCS #1 v2.0 padding functions (by several KBs)
325 -- Removed useless extern's that were an artifact from the project start... ;-)
326 -- Replaced memcpy/memset with XMEMCPY and XMEMSET for greater flexibility
327 -- fixed bugs in hmac_done()/hmac_init()/[various others()] where I didn't trap errors
328 -- Reduced stack usage in OMAC/PMAC/HMAC/EAX/OCB/PKCS#5 by mallocing any significant sized
329 arrays (e.g. > 100 bytes or so). Only in non-critical functions (e.g. eax_init())
330 -- "Zhi Chen" <[email protected]> pointed out that rsa_decrypt_key() requires
331 an incorrect output size (too large). Fixed.
332 -- Added a "pretty" target to the GCC makefile. Requires PERL. It is NEAT!
333 -- Minor updates to ch1 of the manual.
334 -- Cleaned up the indentation and added comments to rsa_make_key(), rsa_exptmod() and
335 rsa_verify_hash()
336 -- Updated makefile.icc so the "install" target would work ;-)
337 -- Removed demos/test.c [deprecated from demos/test/test.c]
338 -- Changed MAXBLOCKSIZE from 128 to 64 to reflect the true size...
339
340 May 30th, 2004
341 v0.96 -- Removed GF and Keyring code
342 -- Extended OAEP decoder to distinguish better [and use a more uniform API]
343 -- Changed PSS/OAEP API slightly to be more consistent with other PK functions (order of arguments)
344 -- rsa_exptmod() now pads with leading zeroes as per I2OSP.
345 -- added error checking to yarrow code
346 -- pointed out that tommath.h from this distro will overwrite tommath.h
347 from libtommath. I changed this to ltc_tommath.h to avoid any such problems.
348 -- Fixed bug in PSS encoder/decoder that didn't handle the MSB properly
349 -- refactored AES, now sports an "encrypt only" descriptor which uses half as much code space.
350 -- modded Yarrow to try and use refactored AES code and added WHIRLPOOL support (d'oh) ;-)
351 -- updated ECB, OCB and CBC decrypt functions to detect when "encrypt only" descriptor is used.
352 -- replaced old RSA code with new code that uses PKCS #1 v2.0 padding
353 -- replaced old test harness with new over-engineer'ed one in /demos/test/
354 -- updated cbc/cfb/ofb/ctr code with setiv/getiv functions to change/read the IV without re-keying.
355 -- Added PKCS #1 v1.5 RSA encryption and signature padding routines
356 -- Added DER OID's to most hash descriptors (as many as I could find)
357 -- modded rsa_exptmod() to use timing-resilient tim_exptmod() when doing private key operations
358 added #define RSA_TIMING which can turn on/off this feature.
359 -- No more config.pl so please just read mycrypt_custom.h for build-time tweaks
360 -- Small update to rand_prime()
361 -- Updated sha1, md5 and sha256 so they are smaller when SMALL_CODE is defined. If you want speed though,
362 you're going to have to undefine SMALL_CODE ;-)
363 -- Worked over AES so that it's even smaller now [in both modes].
364
365 May 12th, 2004
366 v0.95 -- Optimized AES and WHIRLPOOL for SMALL_CODE by taking advantage of the fact
367 the transforms are circulant. AES dropped 5KB and WHIRLPOOL dropped 13KB
368 using the default build options on the x86.
369 -- Updated eax so the eax_done() would clear the state [like hmac,pmac,ocb] when
370 CLEAN_STACK has been defined.
371 -- added LTC_TEST support to rmd160
372 -- updates to mycrypt_pk.h
373 -- updated rand_prime() to faciliate making RSA composites
374 -- DSA/RSA now makes composites of the exact size desired.
375 -- Refactored quite a bit of the code, fewer functions per C file
376 -- cleaned up the makefiles to organize the objects logically
377 -- added ICC makefile along with "profiled" targets for both GNU and ICC compilers
378 -- Marked functions for removal before v1.00 see PLAN for more information
379 -- GCC 3.4.0 tested and seems to work
380 -- Added PKCS #5 support
381 -- Fixed typo in comment header of .C files ;-)
382 -- Added PKCS #1 OAEP and PSS support.
383
384 Feb 20th, 2004
385 v0.94 -- removed unused variables from ocb.c and fixed it to match known test vectors.
386 -- Added PMAC support, minor changes to OMAC/EAX code [I think....]
387 -- Teamed up with Brian Gladman. His code verifies against my vectors and my code
388 verifies against his test vectors. Hazaa for co-operation!
389 -- Various small changes (added missing ARGCHKs and cleaned up indentation)
390 -- Optimization to base64, removed unused variable "c"
391 -- Added base64 gen to demos/tv_gen.c
392 -- Fix to demos/x86_prof.c to correctly identify the i386 architecture... weird...
393 -- Fixed up all of the PK code by adding missing error checking, removed "res" variables,
394 shrunk some stack variables, removed non-required stack variables and added proper
395 error conversion from MPI to LTC codes. I also spotted a few "off by one" error
396 checking which could have been used to force the code to read past the end of
397 the buffer (in theory, haven't checked if it would work) by a few bytes.
398 -- Added checks to OUTPUT_BIGNUM so the *_export() functions cannot overflow the output and I
399 also modded it so it stores in the output provided to the function (that is not on
400 the local stack) which saves memory and time.
401 -- Made SAFER default to disabled for now (plans are to cleanhouse write an implementation later)
402 -- Added the 512-bit one-way hash WHIRLPOOL which clocks in at 138 cycles per byte on my
403 Athlon XP [for comparison, SHA-512 clocks in at 77 cycles per byte]. This code uses the
404 teams new sbox design (not the original NESSIE one).
405
406
407 Jan 25th, 2004
408 v0.93 -- [note: deleted v0.93 changes by accident... recreating from memory...]
409 -- Fix to RC2 to not deference pointer before ARGCHK
410 -- Fix to NOEKEON to match published test vectors as well as cleaned up the code a bit
411 -- Optimized Twofish [down to 28 cycles/byte on my box] and Blowfish
412 -- Fix to OMAC to test cipher block size first [prevents wasting any time]
413 -- Added more OMAC test vectors
414 -- Added EAX Encrypt+Authenticate support
415 -- Fix to DSA to check return of a few LTM functions I forgot [mp_to_unsigned_bin]
416 -- Added common headers to all C files
417 -- CTR mode supports big and little [default] endian counters now.
418 -- fix to find_cipher_any() so that it can handle a fragmented cipher_descriptor table.
419 -- added find_hash_any() akin to find_cipher_any().
420 -- Added EAX code to demos/tv_gen.c Hazaa!
421 -- Removed SONY defines and files from codebase.
422 -- Added OCB support [patents be damned] and to demos/tv_gen.c
423 -- Merge all of the INPUT/OUTPUT BIGNUM macros (less toc) into mycrypt_pk.h
424 -- Made appropriate changes to the debug string in crypt.c
425
426 Dec 24th, 2003
427 v0.92 -- Updated the config.pl script so the options have more details.
428 -- Updated demos/tv_gen to include RIPEMD hashes
429 -- Updated Twofish so when TWOFISH_ALL_TABLES is defined a pre-computed RS table
430 is included [speedup: slight, about 4k cycles on my Athlon].
431 -- Re-wrote the twofish large key generation [the four 8x32 key dependent tables]. Now about twice as fast.
432 With both optimizations [e.g. TWOFISH_ALL_TABLES defined] a 128-bit Twofish key can now be scheduled
433 in 26,000 cycles on my Athlon XP [as opposed to 49,000 before] when optimized for size.
434 -- config.pl has been updated so rmd128.o and rmd160.o are objects included in the build [oops]
435 -- Andrew Mann found a bug in rsa_exptmod() which wouldn't indicate if the wrong type of key was specified
436 (e.g. not PK_PRIVATE or PK_PUBLIC)
437 -- Fixed up demos/x86_prof so it sorts the output now :-)
438 -- The project is now powered by radioactive rubber pants.
439 -- Fixed dh_encrypt_key() so if you pass it a hash with a smaller output than the input key it
440 will return CRYPT_INVALID_HASH [to match what ecc_encrypt_key() will do]
441 -- Merge the store/encrypt key part of ecc_encrypt_key() as per dh_encrypt_key() [can you guess what I'm upto?]
442 -- Massive updates to the prime generation code. I use the LTM random prime functions [and provide a nice
443 interface between the LTC PRNG's and the LTM generic prng prototype]. I also use a variable number of tests
444 depending on the input size. This nicely speeds up most prime generation/testing within the library.
445 -- Added SHA-224 to the list of hashes.
446 -- Made HMAC test vectors constant and static [takes ROM space instead of RAM]
447 -- This release was brought to you by the letter P which stands for Patent Infringement.
448 -- Added generic HASH_PROCESS macro to mycrypt_hash.h which simplifies the hash "process" functions
449 I also optimized the compression functions of all but MD2 to not perform input copies when avoidable.
450 -- Removed the division from the Blowfish setup function [dropped 3k cycles on my Athlon]
451 -- Added stack cleaning to rijndael, cast5 so now all ciphers have CLEAN_STACK code.
452 -- Added Skipjack to the list of ciphers [made appropriate changes to demos/test.c, demos/tv_gen.c and
453 demos/x86_prof.c]
454 -- Added mechanical testing to cipher test vector routines. Now it encrypts 1000 times, then decrypts and
455 compares. Any fault (e.g. bug in code, compiler) in the routines is likely to show through. Doesn't
456 stress test the key gen though...
457 -- Matt Johnson found a bug in the blowfish.c apparently I was out of my mind and put twofish defines in there
458 The code now builds with any config. Thanks.
459 -- Added OMAC1 Message Authentication Code support to the library.
460 -- Re-prototyped the hash "process" and "done" to prevent buffer overflows [which don't seem easy to exploit].
461 Updated HMAC code to use them too. Hazaa!
462 -- Fixed bug in ECC code which wouldn't do an _ARGCHK on stat in ecc_verify_hash().
463 -- Fixed [temp fix] bug in all PK where the OUTPUT_BIGNUM macros would not trap errors on the to_unsigned_bin
464 conversion [now returns CRYPT_MEM, will fix it up better later]
465 -- Added DSA to the list of supported PK algorithms.
466 -- Fixed up various ciphers to &255 the input key bytes where required [e.g. where used to index a table] to prevent
467 problems on platforms where CHAR_BIT != 8
468 -- Merged in LibTomMath v0.28
469 -- Updated demos/x86_prof.c to use Yarrow during the key sched testing [was horribly slow on platforms with blockable
470 /dev/random].
471 -- Added OMAC/HMAC tests to demos/tv_gen and I now store the output of this in notes/
472 -- Fixed a bug in config.pl that wouldn't have TWOFISH_TABLES defined by default (too many commas on the line)
473 -- Fixed bug in hmac_done(). Apparently FIPS-198 [HMAC] specifies that the output can be truncated. My code
474 would not support that (does now just like the new OMAC code).
475 -- Removed "hashsize" from hmac_state as it wasn't being used.
476 -- Made demos/test.c stop if OMAC or HMAC tests fail (instead of just printing a failed message and keep going).
477 -- Updated notes/tech0003.txt to take into account the existence of Skipjack [also I fixed a few typos].
478 -- Slight changes to Noekeon, with SMALL_CODE undefined it uses a fully unrolled version. Dropped +10 cycles/byte
479 on my Athlon (35 cycles per byte or 410.4Mbit/sec at 1795Mhz)
480 -- Added _ARGCHK() calls to is_prime() for the two input pointers.
481
482 Sept 25th, 2003
483 v0.91 -- HMAC fix of 0.90 was incorrect for keys larger than the block size of the hash.
484 -- Added error CRYPT_FILE_NOTFOUND for the file [hmac/hash] routines.
485 -- Added RIPEMD hashes to the hashsum demo.
486 -- Added hashsum demo to MSVC makefile.
487 -- Added RMD160 to the x86_prof demo [oops]
488 -- Merged in LibTomMath-0.27 with a patch to mp_shrink() that will be in LibTomMath-0.28
489 Fixes another potential memory leak.
490
491 Sept 7th, 2003
492 v0.90 -- new ROL/ROR for x86 GCC
493 -- Jochen Katz submitted a patch to the makefile to prevent "make" from making the .a library
494 when not required.
495 == By default the KR code is not enabled [it's only a demo anyways!]
496 -- changed the "buf" in ecc_make_key from 4KB to 128 bytes [since the largest key is 65 bytes]
497 -- hmac_done() now requires you pass it the size of the destination buffer to prevent
498 buffer overflows. (API CHANGE)
499 -- hmac/hash filebased routines now return CRYPT_NOP if NO_FILE is defined.
500 -- I've removed the primes from dh.c and replaced them with DR safe primes suitable for the default
501 configuration of LibTomMath. Check out these comparisons on a 1.3Ghz Athlon XP, optimized for size,
502
503 768-bit, 4 vs. 10
504 1024-bit, 8 vs. 18
505 1280-bit, 12 vs. 34
506 1536-bit, 20 vs. 56
507 1792-bit 28 vs. 88
508 2048-bit, 40 vs. 124
509 2560-bit, 71 vs. 234
510 3072-bit, 113 vs. 386
511 4096-bit, 283 vs. 916
512
513 Times are all in milliseconds for key generation. New primes times on the left. This makes the code binary
514 incompatible with previous releases. However, this addition is long overdue as LibTomMath has supported DR
515 reductions for quite some time.
516 -- Added RIPE-MD 128 and 160 to the list of supported hashes [10 in total].
517 -- The project has been released as public domain. TDCAL no longer applies.
518
519 July 15th, 2003
520 v0.89 -- Fix a bug in bits.c which would prevent it from building with msvc
521 -- Merged in LibTomMath v0.24 [and I used the alloc/free macros this time!]
522 -- Removed the LTC version of next_prime() and replaced it with a call to the
523 mp_prime_next_prime() from LibTomMath
524 -- reverted bits.c to the 0.86 copy since the new one doesn't build in MSVC
525 or cygwin.
526
527 Jul 10th, 2003
528 v0.88 -- Sped up CAST5 key schedule for MSVC
529 -- added "ulong32" which allows people on 64-bit platforms to force the 32-bit tables in
530 ciphers like blowfish and AES to be 32-bits. E.g. when unsigned long is 64-bits.
531 -- Optimized the SAFER-SK64, SAFER-SK128, SAFER+, RC5 and RC6 key schedule [big time!]
532 -- Optimized SHA-1 and SHA-256 quite a bit too.
533 -- Fixed up the makefile to use -fomit-frame-pointer more liberally
534 -- Added tv_gen program which makes test vectors for ciphers/hashes
535 -- Merged in LibTomMath v0.22
536
537 Jun 19th, 2003
538 v0.87 -- Many MSVC optimizations to the code base
539 -- Improved the AES and Twofish key schedule [faster, more constant time]
540 -- Tons of optimizations here and there.
541
542 Jun 15th, 2003
543 v0.86 -- Fixed up AES to workaround MSVC optimizer bug
544 -- Merged in fresh LTM base [based on v0.20] so there are no warnings with MSVC
545 -- Wrote x86_prof which will time the hashes and ciphers downto cycles per byte.
546 -- Fixed up demos/encrypt to remove serpent_desc from the list
547 -- Re-enabled MSVC optimizations w00t w00t
548 -- Replaced "errno" with "err" in all functions that had it so it wouldn't clash
549 with the global "errno"
550 -- Removed a set of unused variables from certain functions
551 -- Removed {#line 0 "..."} stuff from mpi.c to comply with ISO C :-)
552
553 Jun 11th, 2003
554 v0.85 -- Swapped in a new AES routine
555 -- Removed Serpent
556 -- Added TDCAL policy document
557
558 Jun 1st, 2003
559 v0.84 -- Removed a 4KB buffer from rsa_decrypt_key that wasn't being used no more
560 -- Fixed another potential buffer problem. Not an overflow but could cause the
561 PK import routines to read past the end of the buffer.
562 -- Optimized the ECC mulmod more by removing a if condition that will always be false
563 -- Optimized prime.c to not include a 2nd prime table, removed code from is_prime calls prime
564 test from LibTomMath now
565 -- Added LTC_TEST define which when defined will enable the test vector routines [see mycrypt_custom.h]
566 -- Removed ampi.o from the depends cuz it ain't no not working in *nix with it [routines are in mpi.c now].
567
568
569 Mar 29th, 2003
570 v0.83 -- Optimized the ecc_mulmod, it's faster and takes less heap/stack space
571 -- Fixed a free memory error in ecc_mulmod and del_point which would try to free NULL
572 -- Fixed two serious bugs in rsa_decrypt_key and rsa_verify_hash that would allow a trivialy
573 buffer overflow.
574 -- Fixed a bug in the hmac testing code if you don't register all the hashes it won't return
575 errors now.
576
577 Mar 15th, 2003
578 v0.82 -- Manual updated
579 -- Added MSVC makefile [back, actually its written from scratch to work with NMAKE]
580 -- Change to HMAC helper functions API to avoid buffer overflow [source changes]
581 -- the rsa_encrypt_key was supposed to reject key sizes out of bounds ...
582 same fix to the rsa_sign_hash
583 -- Added code to ensure that that chaining mode code (cfb/ofb/ctr/cbc) have valid
584 structures when being called. E.g. the indexes to the pad/ivs are not out of bounds
585 -- Cleaned up the DES code and simplified the core desfunc routine.
586 -- Simplified one of the boolean functions in MD4
587
588 Jan 16th, 2003
589 v0.81 -- Merged in new makefile from Clay Culver and Mike Frysinger
590 -- Sped up the ECC mulmod() routine by making the word size adapt to the input. Saves a whopping 9 point
591 operations on 521-bit keys now (translates to about 8ms on my Athlon XP). I also now use barrett reduction
592 as much as possible. This sped the routine up quite a bit.
593 -- Fixed a huge flaw in ecc_verify_hash() where it would return CRYPT_OK on error... Now fixed.
594 -- Fixed up config.pl by fixing an invalid query and the file is saved in non-windows [e.g. not CR/LF] format
595 (fix due to Mika Bostr�m)
596 -- Merged in LibTomMath for kicks
597 -- Changed the build process so that by default "mycrypt_custom.h" is included and provided
598 The makefile doesn't include any build options anymore
599 -- Removed the PS2 and VC makefiles.
600
601 Dec 16th, 2002
602 v0.80 -- Found a change I made to the MPI that is questionable. Not quite a bug but definately not desired. Had todo
603 with the digit shifting. In v0.79 I simply truncated without zeroing. It didn't cause problems during my
604 testing but I fixed it up none the less.
605 -- Optimized s_mp_mul_dig() from MPI to do a minimal number of passes.
606 -- Fixed in rsa_exptmod() where I was getting the size of the result. Basically it accomplishes the same thing
607 but the fixed code is more readable.
608 -- Fixed slight bug in dh_sign_hash() where the random "k" value was 1 byte shorter than it should have been. I've
609 also made the #define FAST_PK speed up signatures as well. Essentially FAST_PK tells the DH sub-system to
610 limit any private exponent to 256-bits. Note that when FAST_PK is defined does not make the library
611 binary or source incompatible with a copy of the library with it undefined.
612 -- Removed the DSA code. If you want fast diffie-hellman just define FAST_PK :-)
613 -- Updated dh_sign_hash()/dh_verify_hash() to export "unsigned" bignums. Saves two bytes but is not binary
614 compatible with the previous release... sorry! I've performed the same fix to the ecc code as well.
615 -- Fixed up the PK code to remove all use of mp_toraw() and mp_read_raw() [get all the changes out of the way now]
616 -- Fixed a bug in the DH code where it missed trapping a few errors if they occurred.
617 -- Fixed a slight "its-not-a-bug-but-could-be-done-better" bug in the next_prime() function. Essentially it was
618 testing to ensure that in the loop that searches for the next candidate that the step never grows beyond
619 65000. Should have been testing for MP_DIGIT_MAX
620 -- Spruced up the config.pl script. It now makes a header file "mycrypt_custom.h" which can be included *before*
621 you include mycrypt.h. This allows you to add libtomcrypt to a project without completely changing your make
622 system around. Note that you should use the makefile it writes to at least build the library initially.
623 -- Used splint to check alot of the code out. Tons of minor fixes and explicit casts added.
624 -- Also made all the internal functions of MPI are now static to avoid poluting the namespace
625 -- **Notice**: There are no planned future releases for at least a month from the this release date.
626
627 Dec 14th, 2002
628 v0.79 -- Change to PK code [binary and source]. I made it so you have to pass the buffer size to the *_decrypt_key and
629 *_verify_hash functions. This prevents malformed packets from performing buffer overflows. I've also trimmed
630 the packet header size [by 4 bytes].
631 -- Made the test program halt on the first error it occurs. Also made it trap more errors than before.
632 -- Wrote the first chapter of my new book [DRAFT!], not in this package but check my website!
633 -- Included a perl script "config.pl" that will make "makefile.out" according to the users needs.
634 -- Added shell script to look for latest release
635 -- Merge DH and ECC key defines from mycrypt_cfg.h into the makefiles
636 -- updated the makefile to use BSD friendly archiving invokations
637 -- Changed the DH and ECC code to use base64 static key settings [e.g. the primes]. Dropped the code size by 3KB
638 and is ever-so-slightly faster than before.
639 -- added "mp_shrink" function to shrink the size of bignums. Specially useful for PK code :-)
640 -- Added new exptmod function that calculates a^b mod c with fewer multiplies then before [~20% for crypto
641 sized numbers]. Also added a "low mem" variant that doesn't use more than 20KB [upto 4096 bit nums] of
642 heap todo the calculation. Both are #define'able controlled
643 -- Added XREALLOC macro to provide realloc() functionality.
644 -- Added fix where in rsa_import() if you imported a public key or a non-optimized key it would free the mp_int's
645 not being used.
646 -- Fixed potential bug in the ECC code. Only would occur on platforms where char is not eight bits [which isn't
647 often!]
648 -- Fixed up the ECC point multiplication, its about 15% faster now
649 -- While I was at it [since the lib isn't binary backwards compatible anyways] I've fixed the PK export routines
650 so they export as "unsigned" types saving 1 byte per bignum outputted. Not a lot but heck why not.
651
652 Nov 28th, 2002
653 v0.78 -- Made the default ARGCHK macro a function call instead which reduced the code size from 264KB to 239KB.
654 -- Fixed a bug in the XTEA keysize function which called ARGCHK incorrectly.
655 -- Added Noekeon block cipher at 2,800 bytes of object code and 345Mbit/sec it is a welcome addition.
656 -- Made the KR code check if the other PK systems are included [provides error when building otherwise].
657 -- Made "aes" an alias for Rijndael via a pre-processor macro. Now you can use "aes_ecb_encrypt", etc... :-)
658 Thanks to Jean-Luc Cooke for the "buzzword conformance" suggestion.
659 -- Removed the old PK code entirely (e.g. rsa_sign, dh_encrypt). The *_sign_hash and *_encrypt_key functions
660 are all that is to remain.
661 -- **NOTE** Changed the PK *_import (including the keyring) routine to accept a "inlen" parameter. This fixes a
662 bug where improperly made key packets could result in reading passed the end of the buffer. This means
663 the code is no longer source compatible but still binary compatible.
664 -- Fixed a few other minor bugs in the PK import code while I was at it.
665
666 Nov 26th, 2002
667 v0.77 -- Updated the XTEA code to use pre-computed keys. With optimizations for speed it achieves 222Mbit/sec
668 compared to the 121Mbit/sec before. It is 288 bytes bigger than before.
669 -- Cleaned up some of the ciphers and hashes (coding style, cosmetic changes)
670 -- Optimized AES slightly for 256-bit keys [only one if statement now, still two for 192-bit keys]
671 -- Removed most test cases from Blowfish, left three of them there. Makes it smaller and faster to test.
672 -- Changed the primality routines around. I now use 8 rounds of Rabin-Miller, I use 256 primes in the sieve
673 step and the "rand_prime" function uses a modified sieve that avoids alot of un-needed bignum work.
674 -- Fixed a bug in the ECC/DH signatures where the keys "setting" value was not checked for validity. This means
675 that a invalid value could have caused segfaults, etc...
676 -- **NOTE** Changed the way the ECC/DH export/import functions work. They are source but not binary compatible
677 with v0.76. Essentially insteading of exporting the setting index like before I export the key size. Now
678 if you ever re-configure which key settings are supported the lib will still be able to make use of your
679 keys.
680 -- Optimized Blowfish by inlining the round function, unrolling it for four rounds then using a for loop for the
681 rest. It achieves a rate of 425Mbit/sec with the new code compared to 314Mbit/sec before. The new blowfish
682 object file is 7,813 bytes compared to 8,663 before and is 850 bytes smaller. So the code is both smaller and
683 faster!
684 -- Optimized Twofish as well by inlining the round function. Gets ~400Mbit/sec compared to 280Mbit/sec before
685 and the code is only 78 bytes larger than the previous copy.
686 -- Removed SMALL_PRIME_TAB build option. I use the smaller table always.
687 -- Fixed some mistakes concerning prime generation in the manual.
688 -- [Note: sizes/speeds are for GCC 3.2 on an x86 Athlon XP @ 1.53Ghz]
689
690 Nov 25th, 2002
691 v0.76 -- Updated makefiles a bit more, use "-Os" instead of "-O2" to optimize for size. Got the lib
692 downto 265KB using GCC 3.2 on my x86 box.
693 -- Updated the SAFER+, Twofish and Rijndael test vector routine to use the table driven design.
694 -- Updated all other test vector routines to return as soon as an error is found
695 -- fixed a bug in the test program where errors in the hash test routines would not be reported
696 correctly. I found this by temporarily changing one of the bytes of the test vectors. All the
697 hashes check out [the demos/test.c would still have reported an error, just the wrong one].
698
699
700 Nov 24th, 2002
701 v0.75 -- Fixed a flaw in hash_filehandle, it should ARGCHK that the filehandle is not NULL
702 -- Fixed a bug where in hash_file if the call to hash_filehandle failed the open file would
703 not be closed.
704 -- Added more strict rules to build process, starting to weed out "oh this works in GCC" style code
705 In the next release "-Wconversion" will be enabled which will deal with all implicit casts.
706
707 Nov 22nd, 2002 [later in the day]
708 v0.74 -- Wrote a small variant of SAFER+ which shaved 50KB off the size of the library on x86 platforms
709 -- Wrote a build option to remove the PK packet functions [keeps the encrypt_key/sign_hash functions]
710 -- Wrote a small variant of Rijndael (trimmed 13KB)
711 -- Trimmed the TIGER/192 hash function a bit
712 -- Overall the entire lib compiled is 295KB [down from 400KB before]
713 -- Fixed a few minor oversights in the MSVC makefile
714
715 Nov 22nd, 2002
716 v0.73 -- Fixed bug in RC4 code where it could only use 255 byte keys.
717 -- Fixed bug in yarrow code where it would allow cast5 or md2 to be used with it...
718 -- Removed the ecc compress/expand points from the global scope. Reduces namespace polution
719 -- Fixed bug where if you used the SPRNG you couldn't pass NULL as your prng_state which you should be
720 able todo since the SPRNG has no state...
721 -- Corrected some oversights in the manual and the examples...
722 -- By default the GF(2^W) math library is excluded from the build. The source is maintained because I wrote it
723 and like it :-). This way the built library is a tad smaller
724 -- the MSVC makefile will now build for a SPACE optimized library rather than TIME optimized.
725
726 Nov 21th, 2002
727 v0.72 -- Fixed bug in the prime testing. In the Miller-Rabin test I was raising the base to "N-1" not "r".
728 The math still worked out fine because in effect it was performing a Fermat test. Tested the new code and it
729 works properly
730 -- Fixed some of the code where it was still using the old error syntax
731 -- Sped up the RSA decrypt/sign routines
732 -- Optimized the ecc_shared_secret routine to not use so much stack
733 -- Fixed up the makefile to make releases where the version # is in the file name and directory it will unzip
734 to
735
736 Nov 19th, 2002
737 v0.71 -- HELP TOM. I need tuition for the January semester. Now I don't want to force donations [nor will I ever]
738 but I really need the help! See my website http://tom.iahu.ca/help_tom.html for more details. Please help
739 if you can!
740 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
741 -- Officially the library is no longer supported in GCC 3.2 in windows [cygwin].
742 In windows you can either use GCC 2.95.3 or try your luck with 3.2 It seems that
743 "-fomit-frame-pointer" is broken in the windows build [but not the linux x86 build???]
744 If you simply must use 3.2 then I suggest you limit the optimizations to simply "-O2"
745 -- Started new error handling API. Similar to the previous except there are more error codes than just
746 CRYPT_ERROR
747 -- Added my implementation of the MD2 hash function [despite the errors in the RFC I managed to get it right!]
748 -- Merged in more changes from Sky Schulz. I have to make mention here that he has been a tremendous help in
749 getting me motivated to make some much needed updates to the library!
750 -- Fixed one of the many mistakes in the manual as pointed out by Daniel Richards
751 -- Fixed a bug in the RC4 code [wasn't setting up the key correctly]
752 -- Added my implementation of the CAST5 [aka CAST-128] block cipher (conforms...)
753 -- Fixed numerous bugs in the PK code. Essentially I was "freeing" keys when the import failed. This is neither
754 required nor a good a idea [double free].
755 -- Tom needs a job.
756 -- Fixed up the test harness as requested by Sky Schulz. Also modifed the timing routines to run for X seconds
757 and count # of ops performed. This is more suitable than say encrypting 10 million blocks on a slow processor
758 where it could take minutes!
759 -- Modified test programs hashsum/encrypt to use the new algorithms and error handling syntax
760 -- Removed the PKCS code since it was incomplete. In the future I plan on writing a "add-on" library that
761 provides PKCS support...
762 -- updated the config system so the #defines are in the makefiles instead of mycrypt_cfg.h
763 -- Willing to work on an hourly basis for 15$ CDN per hour.
764 -- updated the test program to not test ciphers not included
765 -- updated the makefile to make "rsa_sys.c" a dependency of rsa.o [helps develop the code...]
766 -- fixed numerous failures to detect buffer overflows [minor] in the PK code.
767 -- fixed the safer [64-bit block version] test routines which didn't check the returns of the setup
768 function
769 -- check out my CV at http://tom.iahu.ca/cv.html
770 -- removed the GBA makefile and code from demos/test.c [not a particularly useful demo...]
771 -- merged in rudimentary [for testing] PS2 RNG from Sky Schulz
772 -- merged in PS2 timer code [only shell included due to NDA reasons...]
773 -- updated HMAC code to return errors where possible
774 -- Thanks go to Sky Schulz who bought me a RegCode for TextPad [the official editor of libtomcrypt]
775
776 Nov 12th, 2002
777 v0.70 -- Updated so you can swap out the default malloc/calloc/free routines at build time with others. (Sky Schulz)
778 -- Sky Schulz contributed some code towards autodetecting the PS2 in mycrypt_cfg.h
779 -- Added PS2 makefile contributed by Sky Schulz [see a pattern forming?]
780 -- Added ability to have no FILE I/O functions at all (see makefile), Sky Schulz....
781 -- Added support for substituting out the clock() function (Sky Schulz)
782 -- Fixed up makefile to include new headers in the HEADERS variable
783 -- Removed "coin.c" as its not really useful anyways
784 -- Removed many "debug" printfs that would show up on failures. Basically I wanted to ensure the only output
785 would be from the developer themselves.
786 -- Added "rc4.c" a RC4 implementation with a PRNG interface. Since RC4 isn't a block cipher it wouldn't work
787 too well as a block cipher.
788 -- Fixed ARGCHK macro usage when ARGTYPE=1 throughout the code
789 -- updated makefile to make subdirectory properly (Sku Schulz)
790 -- Started towards new API setup. Instead of checking for "== CRYPT_ERROR" you should check "!= CRYPT_OK"
791 In future releases functions will return things other than CRYPT_ERROR on error to give more useful
792 thread safe error reporting. The manual will be updated to reflect this. For this release all
793 errors are returned as CRYPT_ERROR (except as noted) but in future releases this will change.
794 -- Removed the zlib branch since its not really required anyways. Makes the package smaller
795
796 Nov 11th, 2002
797 v0.69 -- Added ARGCHK (see mycrypt_argchk.h) "arguement checking" to all functions that accept pointers
798 -- Note I forgot to change the CRYPT version tag in v0.68... fixed now.
799
800 Nov 8th, 2002
801 v0.68 -- Fixed flaw in kr_import/kr_export that wasted 4 bytes. Source but not binary compatible with v0.67
802 -- Fixed bug in kr_find_name that used memcmp to match strings. Uses strncmp now.
803 -- kr_clear now sets the pointer to NULL to facilate debugging [e.g. using the keyring after clearing]
804 -- static functions in _write/_read in keyring.c now check the return of ctr_encrypt/ctr_decrypt.
805 -- Updated blowfish/rc2/rc5/rc6 keysize() function to not reject keys larger than the biggest key the
806 respective ciphers can use.
807 -- Fixed a bug in hashsum demo that would report the hash for files that don't exist!
808
809 Oct 16th, 2002
810 v0.67 -- Moved the function prototypes into files mycrypt_*.h. To "install" the lib just copy all the
811 header files "*.h" from the base of this project into your global include path.
812 -- Made the OFB/CFB/CTR functions use "unsigned long" for the length instead of "int"
813 -- Added keyring support for the PK functions
814 -- ***API CHANGE*** changed the ecc_make_key and dh_make_key to act more like rsa_make_key. Basically
815 move the first argument to the next to last.
816 -- Fixed bug in dh_test() that wouldn't test the primality of the order of the sub-group
817 -- replaced the primes in the DH code with new ones that are larger than the size they are
818 associated with. That is a 1024-bit DH key will have a 1025-bit prime as the modulus
819 -- cleaned up all the PK code, changed a bit of the API around [not source compatible with v0.66]
820 -- major editing of the manual, started Docer program
821 -- added 160 and 224 bit key settings for ECC. This makes the DH and ECC binary wise incompatible with v0.66
822 -- Added an additional check for memory errors in is_prime() and cleaned up prime.c a bit
823 -- Removed ID_TAG from all files [meh, not a big fan...]
824 -- Removed unused variable from yarrow state and made AES/SHA256 the default cipher/hash combo
825 -- Fixed a bug in the Yarrow code that called prng_is_valid instead of cipher_is_valid from yarrow_start()
826 -- The ECB/CBC/OFB/CFB/CTR wrappers now check that the cipher is valid in the encrypt/decrypt calls
827 Returns int now instead of void.
828
829 Sept 24th, 2002
830 v0.66 -- Updated the /demos/test.c program to time the hashes correctly. Also it uses the yarrow PRNG for all of the
831 tests meaning its possible to run on RNG less platforms
832 -- Updated the /demos/hashsum.c program to hash from the standard input
833 -- Updated the RSA code to make keys a bit quicker [update by Wayne Scott] by not making both primes at the same
834 time.
835 -- Dan Kaminsky suggested some cleanups for the code and the MPI config
836 Code ships in unix LF format by default now too... will still build in MSVC and all... but if you want
837 to read the stuff you'll have to convert it
838 -- Changes to the manual to reflect new API [e.g. hash_memory/file have v0.65 prototypes]and some typos fixed
839
840 Sept 20th, 2002
841 v0.65 -- Wayne Scott ([email protected]) made a few of suggestions to improve the library. Most
842 importantly he pointed out the math lib is not really required. He's also tested the lib on 18
843 different platforms. According to him with only a few troubles [lack of /dev/random, etc] the
844 library worked as it was supposed to. You can find the list at
845 http://www.bitkeeper.com/Products.BitKeeper.Platforms.html
846 -- Updated the hash_file and hash_memory functions to keep track of the size of the output
847 -- Wayne Scott updated the demos/test.c file to use the SPRNG less and Yarrow more
848 -- Modified the mycrypt_cfg.h to autodetect x86-32 machines
849
850 Sept 19th, 2002
851 v0.64 -- wrote makefile for the GBA device [and hacked the demos/test.c file to support it conditionally]
852 -- Fixed error in PK (e.g. ECC, RSA, DH) import functions where I was clobbering the packet error messages
853 -- fixed more typos in the manual
854 -- removed all unused variables from the core library (ignore the ID_TAG stuff)
855 -- added "const char *crypt_build_settings" string which is a build time constant that gives a listing
856 of all the build time options. Useful for debugging since you can send that to me and I will know what
857 exactly you had set for the mycrypt_cfg.h file.
858 -- Added control over endianess. Out of the box it defaults to endianess neutral but you can trivially
859 configure the library for your platform. Using this I boosted RC5 from 660Mbit/sec to 785Mbit/sec on my
860 Athlon box. See "mycrypt_cfg.h" for more information.
861
862 Sept 11th, 2002
863 v0.63 -- Made hashsum demo output like the original md5sum program
864 -- Made additions to the examples in the manual (fixed them up a bunch)
865 -- Merged in the base64 code from Wayne Scott ([email protected])
866
867 Aug 29th, 2002
868 v0.62 -- Added the CLEAN_STACK functionality to several of the hashes I forgot to update.
869
870 Aug 9th, 2002
871 v0.61 -- Fixed a bug in the DES code [oops I read something wrong].
872
873 Aug 8th, 2002
874 v0.60 -- Merged in DES code [and wrote 3DES-EDE code based on it] from Dobes V.
875
876 Aug 7th, 2002
877 v0.59 -- Fixed a "unsigned long long" bug that caused v0.58 not to build in MSVC.
878 -- Cleaned up a little in the makefile
879 -- added code that times the hash functions too in the test program
880
881 Aug 3rd, 2002
882 v0.58 -- Added more stack cleaning conditionals throughout the code.
883 -- corrected some CLEAR_STACK conditionals... should have been CLEAN_STACK
884 -- Simplified the RSA, DH and ECC encrypt() routines where they use CTR to encode the message
885 now they only make one call to ctr_encrypt()/ctr_decrypt().
886
887 Aug 2nd, 2002
888 v0.57 -- Fixed a few errors messages in the SAFER code to actually report the correct cipher name.
889 -- rsa_encrypt() uses the "keysize()" method of the cipher being used to more accurately pick a
890 key size. By default rsa_encrypt() will choose to use a 256-bit key but the cipher can turn that
891 down if required.
892 -- The rsa_exptmod() function will now more reliably detect invalid inputs (e.g. greater than the modulus).
893 -- The padding method for RSA is more clearly documented. Namely if you want to encrypt/sign something of length
894 N then your modulus must be of length 1+3N. So to sign a message with say SHA-384 [48 bytes] you need a
895 145 byte (1160 bits) modulus. This is all in the manual now.
896 -- Added build option CLEAN_STACK which will allow you to choose whether you want to clean the stack or not after every
897 cipher/hash call
898 -- Sped up the hash "process()" functions by not copying one byte at a time.
899 ++ (added just after I uploaded...)
900 MD4 process() now handles input buffers > 64 bytes
901
902 Aug 1st, 2002
903 v0.56 -- Cleaned up the comments in the Blowfish code.
904 -- Oh yeah, in v0.55 I made all of the descriptor elements constant. I just forgot to mention it.
905 -- fixed a couple of places where descriptor indexes were tested wrong. Not a huge bug but now its harder
906 to mess up.
907 -- Added the SAFER [64-bit block] ciphers K64, SK64, K128 and SK128 to the library.
908 -- Added the RC2 block cipher to the library.
909 -- Changed the SAFER define for the SAFER+ cipher to SAFERP so that the new SAFER [64-bit] ciphers
910 can use them with less confusion.
911
912 July 29th, 2002
913 v0.55 -- My god stupid Blowfish has yet again been fixed. I swear I hate that cipher. Next bug in it and boom its out of the
914 library. Use AES or something else cuz I really hate Blowfish at this stage....
915 -- Partial PKCS support [hint DONT USE IT YET CUZ ITS UNTESTED!]
916
917 July 19th, 2002
918 v0.54 -- Blowfish now conforms to known test vectors. Silly bad coding tom!
919 -- RC5/RC6/Serpent all have more test vectors now [and they seemed to have been working before]
920
921 July 18th, 2002
922 v0.53 -- Added more test vectors to the blowfish code just for kicks [and they are const now too :-)]
923 -- added prng/hash/cipher is_valid functions and used them in all of the PK code so you can't enter the code
924 with an invalid index ever now.
925 -- Simplified the Yarrow code once again :-)
926
927 July 12th, 2002
928 v0.52 -- Fixed a bug in MD4 where the hash descriptor ID was the same as SHA-512. Now MD4 will work with
929 all the routines...
930 -- Fixed the comments in SHA-512 to be a bit more meaningful
931 -- In md4 I made the PADDING array const [again to store it in ROM]
932 -- in hash_file I switched the constant "512" to "sizeof(buf)" to be a bit safer
933 -- in SHA-1's test routine I fixed the string literal to say SHA-1 not sha1
934 -- Fixed a logical error in the CTR code which would make it skip the first IV value. This means
935 the CTR code from v0.52 will be incompatible [binary wise] with previous releases but it makes more
936 sense this way.
937 -- Added {} braces for as many if/for/blocks of code I could find. My rule is that every for/if/while/do block
938 must have {} braces around it.
939 -- made the rounds table in saferp_setup const [again for the ROM think about the ROM!]
940 -- fixed RC5 since it no longer requires rc5 to be registered in the lib. It used to since the descriptors used to
941 be part of the table...
942 -- the packet.c code now makes crypt_error literal string errors when an error occurs
943 -- cleaned up the SAFER+ key schedule to be a bit easier to read.
944 -- fixed a huge bug in Twofish with the TWOFISH_SMALL define. Because I clean the stack now I had
945 changed the "g_func()" to be called indirectly. I forgot to actually return the return of the Twofish
946 g_func() function which caused it not to work... [does now :-)]
947
948 July 11th, 2002
949 v0.51 -- Fixed a bug in SHA512/384 code for multi-block messages.
950 -- Added more test vectors to the SHA384/512 and TIGER hash functions
951 -- cleaned up the hash done routines to make more sense
952
953 July 10th, 2002
954 v0.50 -- Fixed yarrow.c so that the cipher/hash used would be registered. Also fixed
955 a bug where the SAFER+ name was "safer" but should have been "safer+".
956 -- Added an element to the hash descriptors that gives the size of a block [sent into the compressor]
957 -- Cleaned up the support for HMAC's
958 -- Cleaned up the test vector routines to make the test vector data const. This means on some platforms it will be
959 placed in ROM not RAM now.
960 -- Added MD4 code submited by Dobes Vandermeer ([email protected])
961 -- Added "burn_stack" function [idea taken from another source of crypto code]. The idea is if a function has
962 alot of variables it will clean up better. Functions like the ecb serpent and twofish code will now have their
963 stacks cleaned and the rest of the code is getting much more straightforward.
964 -- Added a hashing demo by Daniel Richards ([email protected])
965 -- I (Tom) modified some of the test vector routines to use more vectors ala Dobes style.
966 For example, the MD5/SHA1 code now uses all of the test vectors from the RFC/FIPS spec.
967 -- Fixed the register/unregister functions to properly report errors in crypt_error
968 -- Correctly updated yarrow code to remove a few unused variables.
969 -- Updated manual to fix a few erroneous examples.
970 -- Added section on Hash based Message Authentication Codes (HMAC) to the manual
971
972 June 19th, 2002
973 v0.46 -- Added in HMAC code from Dobes Vandermeer ([email protected])
974
975 June 8th, 2002
976 v0.45 -- Fixed bug in rc5.c where if you called rc5_setup() before registering RC5 it would cause
977 undefined behaviour.
978 -- Fixed mycrypt_cfg.h to eliminate the 224 bit ECC key.
979 -- made the "default" makefile target have depends on mycrypt.h and mycrypt_cfg.h
980
981 Apr 4th, 2002
982 v0.44 -- Fixed bug in ecc.c::new_point() where if the initial malloc fails it would not catch it.
983
984 Mar 22nd, 2002
985 v0.43 -- Changed the ZLIB code over to the 1.1.4 code base to avoid the "double free" bug.
986 -- Updated the GCC makefile not to use -O3 or -funroll-loops
987 -- Version tag in mycrypt.h has been updated :-)
988
989 Mar 10th, 2002
990 v0.42 -- The RNG code can now use /dev/urandom before trying /dev/random (J. Klapste)
991
992 Mar 3rd, 2002
993 v0.41 -- Added support to link and use ciphers at compile time. This can greatly reduce the code size!
994 -- Added a demo to show off how small an application can get... 46kb!
995 -- Disastry pointed out that Blowfish is supposed to be high endian.
996 -- Made registry code for the PRNGs as well [now the smallest useable link is 43kb]
997
998 Feb 11th, 2002
999 v0.40 -- RSA signatures use [and check for] fixed padding scheme.
1000 -- I'm developing in Linux now :-)
1001 -- No more warnings from GCC 2.96
1002
1003 Feb 5th, 2002
1004 v0.39 -- Updated the XTEA code to work in accordance with the XTEA design
1005
1006 January 24th, 2002
1007 v0.38 -- CFB and OFB modes can now handle blocks of variable size like the CTR code
1008 -- Wrote a wrapper around the memory compress functions in Zlib that act like the functions
1009 in the rest of my crypto lib
1010
1011 January 23rd, 2002
1012 v0.37 -- Added support code so that if a hash size and key size for a cipher don't match up they will
1013 use the next lower key supported. (mainly for the PK code). So you can now use SHA-1 with
1014 Twofish, etc...
1015 -- Added more options for Twofish. You can now tell it to use precomputed sboxes and MDS multiplications
1016 This will speed up the TWOFISH_SMALL implementation by increasing the code size by 1024 bytes.
1017 -- Fixed a bug in prime.c that would not use the correct table if you undefined SMALL_PRIME_TAB
1018 -- Fixed all of the PK packet code to use the same header format [see packet.c]. This makes the PK code
1019 binary wise incompatible with previous releases while the API has not changed at all.
1020
1021 January 22nd, 2002
1022 v0.36 -- Corrections to the manual
1023 -- Made a modification to Twofish which lets you build a "small ram" variant. It requires
1024 about 190 bytes of ram for the key storage compared to the 4,200 bytes the normal
1025 variant requires.
1026 -- Reduced the stack space used in all of the PK routines.
1027
1028 January 19th, 2002
1029 v0.35 -- If you removed the first hash or cipher from the library it wouldn't return an error if
1030 you used an ID=0 [i.e blowfish or sha256] in any routine. Now it checks for that and will
1031 return an error like it should
1032 -- Merged in new routines from Clay Culver. These routines are for the PK code so you can easily
1033 encode a symmetric key for multiple recipients.
1034 -- Made the ecc and DH make_key() routines make secret keys of the same size as the keysize listed.
1035 Originally I wanted to ensure that the keys were smaller than the order of the field used
1036 However, the bias is so insignifcant using full sizes. For example, with a ECC-192 key the order
1037 is about 2^191.99, so instead I rounded down and used a 184-bit secret key. Now I simply use a full 192-bit
1038 key the code will work just the same except that some 192-bit keys will be duplicates which is not a big
1039 deal since 1/2^192 is a very small bias!
1040 -- Made the configuration a bit simpler and more exacting. You can for example now select which DH or ECC
1041 key settings you wish to support without including the data for all other key settings. I put the #defines
1042 in a new file called "mycrypt_cfg.h"
1043 -- Configured "mpi-config.h" so its a bit more conservative with the memory required and code space used
1044 -- Jason Klapste submitted bug fixes to the yarrow, hash and various other issues. The yarrow code will now
1045 use what ever remaining hash/cipher combo is left [after you #undef them] at build time. He also suggested
1046 a fix to remove unused structures from the symmetric_key and hash_state unions.
1047 -- Made the CTR code handle variable length blocks better. It will buffer the encryption pad so you can
1048 encrypt messages any size block at a time.
1049 -- Simplified the yarrow code to take advantage of the new CTR code.
1050 -- Added a 4096-bit DH key setting. That took me about 36 hours to find!
1051 -- Changed the base64 routines to use a real base64 encoding scheme.
1052 -- Added in DH and ECC "encrypt_key()" functions. They are still rather "beta"ish.
1053 -- Added **Twofish** to the list of ciphers!
1054
1055 January 18th, 2002
1056 v0.34 -- Added "sha512" to the list of hashes. Produces a 512-bit message digest. Note that with the current
1057 padding with the rsa_sign() function you cannot use sha512 with a key less than 1536 bits for signatures.
1058 -- Cleaned up the other hash functions to use the LOAD and STORE macros...
1059
1060 January 17th, 2002
1061 v0.33 -- Made the lower limit on keysizes for RSA 1024 bits again because I realized that 768 bit keys wouldn't
1062 work with the padding scheme and large symmetric keys.
1063 -- Added information concerning the Zlib license to the manual
1064 -- Added a 3072-bit key setting for the DH code.
1065 -- Made the "find_xyz()" routines take "const char *" as per Clay Culver's suggestion.
1066 -- Fixed an embarassing typo in the manual concerning the hashes. Thank's Clay for finding it!
1067 -- Fixed rand_prime() so that it makes primes bigger than the setting you give. For example,
1068 if you want a 1024-bit prime it would make a 1023-bit one. Now it ensures that the prime
1069 it makes is always greater than 2^(8n) (n == bytes in prime). This doesn't have a huge
1070 impact on security but I corrected it just the same.
1071 -- Fixed the CTR routine to work on platforms where char != 8-bits
1072 -- Fixed sha1/sha256/md5/blowfish to not assume "unsigned long == 32-bits", Basically any operation with carries
1073 I "AND" with 0xFFFFFFFF. That forces only the lower 32-bits to have information in it. On x86 platforms
1074 most compilers optimize out the AND operation since its a nop.
1075
1076 January 16th, 2002
1077 v0.32 -- Made Rijndael's setup function fully static so it is thread safe
1078 -- Svante Seleborg suggested a cosmetic style fixup for aes.c,
1079 basically to remove some of the #defines to clean it up
1080 -- Made the PK routines not export the ASCII version of the names of ciphers/hashes which makes
1081 the PK message formats *incompatible* with previous releases.
1082 -- Merge in Zlib :-)
1083
1084
1085 January 15th, 2002
1086 v0.31 -- The RSA routines can now use CRT to speed up decryption/signatures. The routines are backwards
1087 compatible with previous releases.
1088 -- Fixed another bug that Svante Seleborg found. Basically you could buffer-overrun the
1089 rsa_exptmod() function itself if you're not careful. That's fixed now. Fixed another bug in
1090 rsa_exptmod() where if it knows the buffer you passed is too small it wouldn't free all used
1091 memory.
1092 -- improved the readability of the PK import/export functions
1093 -- Added a fix to RSA.C by Clay Culver
1094 -- Changed the CONST64 macro for MSVC to use the "unsigned __int64" type, e.g. "ui64" instead of "i64".
1095
1096 January 14th, 2002
1097 v0.30 -- Major change to the Yarrow PRNG code, fixed a bug that Eugene Starokoltsev found.
1098 Basically if you added entropy to the pool in small increments it could in fact
1099 cancel out. Now I hash the pool with the new data which is way smarter.
1100
1101 January 12th, 2002
1102 v0.29 -- Added MPI code written by Svante Seleborg to the library. This will make the PK code much
1103 easier to follow and debug. Actually I've already fixed a memory leak in dh_shared_secret().
1104 -- Memory leaks found and correct in all three PK routines. The leaks would occur when a bignum
1105 operation fails so it wouldn't normally turn up in the course of a program
1106 -- Fixed bugs in dh_key_size and ecc_key_size which would return garbage for invalid key idx'es
1107
1108 January 11th, 2002
1109 v0.28 -- Cleaned up some code so that it doesn't assume "char == 8bits". Mainly SAFER+ has been
1110 changed.
1111 -- ***HUGE*** changes in the PK code. I check all return values in the bignum code so if there
1112 are errors [insufficient memory, etc..] it will be reported. This makes the code fairly more
1113 robust and likely to catch any errors.
1114 -- Updated the is_prime() function to use a new prototype [it can return errors now] and it also
1115 does trial divisions against more primes before the Rabin Miller steps
1116 -- Added OFB, CFB and ECB generic wrappers for the symmetric ciphers to round out the implementations.
1117 -- Added Xtea to the list of ciphers, to the best of my ability I have verified this implementation.
1118 I should note that there is not alot of concrete information about the cipher. "Ansi C" versions
1119 I found did not address endianess and were not even portable!. This code is portable and to the
1120 best of my knowledge implements the Xtea algorithm as per the [short] X-Tea paper.
1121 -- Reformated the manual to include the **FULL** source code optimized to be pritable.
1122
1123 January 9th, 2002
1124 v0.27 -- Changed the char constants to numerical values. It is backwards compatible and should work on
1125 platforms where 'd' != 100 [for example].
1126 -- Made a change to rand_prime() which takes the input length as a signed type so you can pass
1127 a negative len to get a "3 mod 4" style prime... oops
1128 -- changed the MSVC makefile to build with a warning level of three, no warnings!
1129
1130 January 8th, 2002
1131 v0.26 -- updated SHA-256 to use ROR() for a rotate so 64-bit machines won't corrupt
1132 the output
1133 -- Changed #include <> to #include "" for local .h files as per Richard Heathfields' suggestions.
1134 -- Fixed bug in MPI [well bug in MSVC] that compiled code incorrectly in mp_set_int()
1135 I added a work around that catches the error and continues normally.
1136
1137 January 8th, 2002
1138 v0.25 -- Added a stupid define so MSVC 6.00 can build the library.
1139 -- Big thanks to sci.crypt and "Ajay K. Agrawal" for helping me port this to MSVC
1140
1141 January 7th, 2002
1142 v0.24 -- Sped up Blowfish by unrolling and removing the swaps.
1143 -- Made the code comply with more traditional ANSI C standards
1144 Should compile with MSVC with less errors
1145 -- moved the demos and documentation into their own directories
1146 so you can easily build the library with other tool chains
1147 by compiling the files in the root
1148 -- converted functions with length of outputs to use
1149 "unsigned long" so 16-bit platforms will like this library more.
1150
1151 January 5th, 2002
1152 v0.23 -- Fixed a small error in the MPI config it should build fine anywhere.
1153
1154 January 4th, 2002
1155 v0.22 -- faster gf_mul() code
1156 -- gf_shl() and gf_shr() are safe on 64-bit platforms now
1157 -- Fixed an error in the hashes that Brian Gladman found.
1158 Basically if the message has exactly 56 bytes left to be
1159 compressed I handled them incorrectly.
1160
1161 January 4th, 2002
1162 v0.21 -- sped up the ECC code by removing redundant divisions in the
1163 point add and double routines. I also extract the bits more
1164 efficiently in "ecc_mulmod()" now.
1165 -- sped up [and documented] the rand_prime() function. Now it just
1166 makes a random integer and increments by two until a prime is found
1167 This is faster since it doesn't require alot of calls to the PRNG and
1168 it doesn't require loading huge integers over and over. rand_prime()
1169 can also make primes congruent to 3 mod 4 [i.e for a blum integer]
1170 -- added a gf_sqrt() function that finds square roots in a GF(2^w) field
1171 -- fixed a bug in gf_div() that would return the wrong results if the divisor had a greator
1172 divisor than the dividend.
1173
1174 January 4th, 2002
1175 v0.20 -- Added the fixed MPI back in so RSA and DH are much faster again
1176
1177 v0.19 -- Updated the manual to reflect the fact that Brian Gladman wrote the AES and Serpent code.
1178 -- DH, ECC and RSA signature/decryption functions check if the key is private
1179 -- new DH signature/verification code works just like the RSA/ECC versions
1180
1181 January 3rd, 2002
1182 v0.18 -- Added way more comments to each .C file
1183 -- fixed a bug in cbc_decrypt(pt, ct, key) where pt == ct [i.e same buffer]
1184 -- fixed RC5 so it reads the default rounds out of the cipher_descriptor table
1185 -- cleaned up ecc_export()
1186 -- Cleaned up dh_import() and ecc_import() which also perform more
1187 error checking now
1188 -- Fixed a serious flaw in rsa_import() with private keys.
1189
1190 January 2nd, 2002
1191 v0.17 -- Fixed a bug in the random prime generator that fixes the wrong bits to one
1192 -- ECC and DH code verify that the moduli and orders are in fact prime. That
1193 slows down the test routines alot but what are you gonna do?
1194 -- Fixed a huge bug in the mp_exptmod() function which incorrectly calculates g^x mod p for some
1195 values of p. I replaced it with a slow function. Once the author of MPI fixes his faster routine
1196 I will switch back.
1197
1198 January 1st, 2002 [whoa new year!]
1199 v0.16 -- Improved GF division code that is faster.
1200 -- documented the GF code
1201
1202 December 31st, 2001
1203 v0.15 -- A 1792-bit and 2048-bit DH setting was added. Took me all night to
1204 find a 1792 and 2048-bit strong prime but what the heck
1205 -- Library now has polynomial-basis GF(2^w) routines I wrote myself. Can be used to perform
1206 ECC over GF(2^w) later on....
1207 -- Fixed a bug with the defines that allows it to build in windows
1208
1209 December 30th, 2001
1210 v0.14 -- Fixed the xxx_encrypt() packet routines to make an IV of appropriate size
1211 for the cipher used. It was defaulting to making a 256-bit IV...
1212 -- base64_encode() now appends a NULL byte, um "duh" stupid mistake now fixed...
1213 -- spell checked the manual again... :-)
1214
1215 December 30th, 2001
1216 v0.13 -- Switching back to older copy of MPI since it works! arrg..
1217 -- Added sign/verify functions for ECC
1218 -- all signature verification routines default to invalid signatures.
1219 -- Changed all calls to memset to zeromem. Fixed up some buffer problems
1220 in other routines. All calls to zeromem let the compiler determine the size
1221 of the data to wipe.
1222
1223 December 29th, 2001
1224 v0.12 -- Imported a new version of MPI [the bignum library] that should
1225 be a bit more stable [if you want to write your own bignum
1226 routines with the library that is...]
1227 -- Manual has way more info
1228 -- hash_file() clears stack now [like it should]
1229 -- The artificial cap on the hash input size of 2^32 bits has been
1230 removed. Basically I was too lazy todo 64-bit math before
1231 [don't ask why... I can't remember]. Anyways the hashes
1232 support the size of 2^64 bits [if you ever use that many bits in a message
1233 that's just wierd...]
1234 -- The hashes now wipe the "hash_state" after the digest is computed. This helps
1235 prevent the internal state of the hash being leaked accidently [i.e stack problems]
1236
1237 December 29th, 2001
1238 v0.11 -- Made #define's so you can trim the library down by removing
1239 ciphers, hashs, modes of operation, prngs, and even PK algorithms
1240 For example, the library with rijndael+ctr+sha1+ECC is 91KB compared
1241 to the 246kb the full library takes.
1242 -- Added ECC packet routines for encrypt/decrypt/sign/verify much akin to
1243 the RSA packet routines.
1244 -- ECC now compresses the public key, a ECC-192 public key takes 33 bytes
1245 for example....
1246
1247 December 28th, 2001
1248 v0.10 -- going to restart the manual from scratch to make it more
1249 clear and professional
1250 -- Added ECC over Z/pZ. Basically provides as much as DH
1251 except its faster since the numbers are smaller. For example,
1252 A comparable 256-bit ECC key provides as much security as expected
1253 from a DH key over 1024-bits.
1254 -- Cleaned up the DH code to not export the symbol "sets[]"
1255 -- Fixed a bug in the DH code that would not make the correct size
1256 random string if you made the key short. For instance if you wanted
1257 a 512-bit DH key it would make a 768-bit one but only make up 512-bits
1258 for the exponent... now it makes the full 768 bits [or whatever the case
1259 is]
1260 -- Fixed another ***SERIOUS*** bug in the DH code that would default to 768-bit
1261 keys by mistake.
1262
1263 December 25th, 2001
1264 v0.09 -- Includes a demo program called file_crypt which shows off
1265 how to use the library to make a command line tool which
1266 allows the user to encode/decode a file with any
1267 hash (on the passphrase) and cipher in CTR mode.
1268 -- Switched everything to use typedef's now to clear up the code.
1269 -- Added AES (128/192 and 256 bit key modes)
1270
1271 December 24th, 2001
1272 v0.08 -- fixed a typo in the manual. MPI stores its bignums in
1273 BIG endian not little.
1274 -- Started adding a RNG to the library. Right now it tries
1275 to open /dev/random and if that fails it uses either the
1276 MS CSP or the clock drift RNG. It also allows callbacks
1277 since the drift RNG is slow (about 3.5 bytes/sec)
1278 -- the RNG can also automatically setup a PRNG as well now
1279
1280 v0.07 -- Added basic DH routines sufficient to
1281 negotiate shared secrets
1282 [see the manual for a complete example!]
1283 -- Fixed rsa_import to detect when the input
1284 could be corrupt.
1285 -- added more to the manual.
1286
1287 December 22nd, 2001
1288 v0.06 -- Fixed some formatting errors in
1289 the hash functions [just source code cleaning]
1290 -- Fixed a typo in the error message for sha256 :-)
1291 -- Fixed an error in base64_encode() that
1292 would fail to catch all buffer overruns
1293 -- Test program times the RSA and symmetric cipher
1294 routines for kicks...
1295 -- Added the "const" modifier to alot of routines to
1296 clear up the purpose of each function.
1297 -- Changed the name of the library to "TomCrypt"
1298 following a suggestion from a sci.crypt reader....
1299
1300 v0.05 -- Fixed the ROL/ROR macro to be safe on platforms
1301 where unsigned long is not 32-bits
1302 -- I have added a bit more to the documentation
1303 manual "crypt.pdf" provided.
1304 -- I have added a makefile for LCC-Win32. It should be
1305 easy to port to other LCC platforms by changing a few lines.
1306 -- Ran a spell checker over the manual.
1307 -- Changed the header and library from "crypt" to "mycrypt" to not
1308 clash with the *nix package "crypt".
1309
1310 v0.04 -- Fixed a bug in the RC5,RC6,Blowfish key schedules
1311 where if the key was not a multiple of 4 bytes it would
1312 not get loaded correctly.
1313
1314 December 21st, 2001
1315
1316 v0.03 -- Added Serpent to the list of ciphers.
1317
1318 v0.02 -- Changed RC5 to only allow 12 to 24 rounds
1319 -- Added more to the manual.
1320
1321 v0.01 -- We will call this the first version.
