GNU Libtasn1 NEWS -*- outline -*- * Noteworthy changes in release 4.13 (released 2018-01-16) [stable] - On indefinite string decoding, set a maximum level of allowed recursions (3) to protect the BER decoder from a stack exhaustion. * Noteworthy changes in release 4.12 (released 2017-05-29) [stable] - Corrected so-name version * Noteworthy changes in release 4.11 (released 2017-05-27) [stable] - Introduced the ASN1_TIME_ENCODING_ERROR error code to indicate an invalid encoding in the DER time fields. - Introduced flag ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_ALLOW_INCORRECT_TIME. This flag allows decoding errors in time fields even when in strict DER mode. That is introduced in order to allow toleration of invalid times in X.509 certificates (which are common) even though strict DER adherence is enforced in other fields. - Added safety check in asn1_find_node(). That prevents a crash when a very long variable name is provided by the developer. Note that this to be exploited requires controlling the ASN.1 definitions used by the developer, i.e., the 'name' parameter of asn1_write_value() or asn1_read_value(). The library is not designed to protect against malicious manipulation of the developer assigned variable names. Reported by Jakub Jirasek. * Noteworthy changes in release 4.10 (released 2017-01-16) [stable] - Updated gnulib - Removed -Werror from default compiler flags - Fixed undefined behavior when negating integers in _asn1_ltostr(). Issue found by oss-fuzz project (via gnutls): https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=388 - Pass the correct length to _asn1_get_indefinite_length_string in asn1_get_length_ber. This addresses reading 1-byte past the end of data. Issue found by oss-fuzz project (via gnutls): https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=330 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=331 * Noteworthy changes in release 4.9 (released 2016-07-25) [stable] - Fixes to OID encoding of OIDs which have elements which exceed 2^32 * Noteworthy changes in release 4.8 (released 2016-04-11) [stable] - Fixes to avoid reliance on C undefined behavior. - Fixes to avoid an infinite recursion when decoding without the ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_STRICT_DER flag. Reported by Pascal Cuoq. - Combined all the BER octet string decoding functions to a single one based on asn1_decode_simple_ber(). * Noteworthy changes in release 4.7 (released 2015-09-14) [stable] - Fixed regression introduced in the decoding of multi-byte tags fix. * Noteworthy changes in release 4.6 (released 2015-09-05) [stable] - Allow decoding OCTET STRINGs with multi-byte tags. - API and ABI changes since last version: asn1_get_object_id_der: New function * Noteworthy changes in release 4.5 (released 2015-04-29) [stable] - Corrected an invalid memory access in octet string decoding. Reported by Hanno Böck. * Noteworthy changes in release 4.4 (released 2015-03-29) [stable] - Corrected a two-byte stack overflow in asn1_der_decoding. Reported by Hanno Böck. * Noteworthy changes in release 4.3 (released 2015-03-09) [stable] - Added asn1_decode_simple_ber() * Noteworthy changes in release 4.2 (released 2014-09-15) [stable] - Added sanity checks in the decoding of time when ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_STRICT_DER is used. - Fixes in the decoding of OCTET STRING when close to the end of the structure. * Noteworthy changes in release 4.1 (released 2014-08-23) [stable] - Corrected indefinite tag check in ANY constructions. That allows the decoding of BER-encoded structures that contain indefinite encoding within an ANY element. - Added DER decoding flag ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_STRICT_DER. Over the years BER functionality was added to the decoder and this flag provides the way to disable it. - API and ABI changes since last version: ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_STRICT_DER: New definition * Noteworthy changes in release 4.0 (released 2014-06-26) [stable] - Optimized asn1_der_decoding_startEnd(). It no longer requires the additional decoding step. - asn1_read_value() understands the ?CURRENT keyword, which can be used to indicate the current element of a sequence, when the provided node is a sequence element. - Several optimizations in DER decoding of structures with sequences containing many elements. - asn1_der_decoding2() is introduced and allows flags to be passed on the decoding process. Currently only ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_ALLOW_PADDING is defined and that allows decoding DER structures that contain arbitrary data past their end. Contributed by Karel Slany. - API and ABI changes since last version: ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_ALLOW_PADDING: New definition asn1_dup_node: New function asn1_der_decoding2: New function asn1_der_decoding_element: It is now an alias to asn1_der_decoding * Noteworthy changes in release 3.6 (released 2014-05-25) [stable] - Corrected an off-by-one error in ASN.1 DER tag decoding. - Several improvements and new safety checks on DER decoding; issues found using Codenomicon TLS test suite. - Marked asn1_der_decoding_element() as deprecated.

Patch by Jean-Louis Thekekara. - Several small bug fixes found by coverity. - Code improvements contributed by Kurt Roeckx. * Noteworthy changes in release 3.4 (released 2013-11-25) [stable] - Added asn1_delete_structure2() which allows zeroizing the contents of all values in the structure prior to deinitialization. - The parser accepts negative numbers in an INTEGER range (but still does no enforce them). * Noteworthy changes in release 3.3 (released 2013-03-23) [stable] - More precise overflow checks using gnulib's intprops module. - Updates to compile in Android systems. * Noteworthy changes in release 3.2 (released 2012-11-30) [stable] - Corrected buffer overflow in the error reporting of the parser (reported by Andreas Metzler). * Noteworthy changes in release 3.1 (released 2012-11-24) [stable] - Completed rename of types: ASN1_ARRAY_TYPE -> asn1_static_node (was asn1_static_node_t) - Added new types: VisibleString, NumericString, IA5String, TeletexString, PrintableString, UniversalString, BMPString, UTF8String. When re-defined a warning is being print instead of failing. - Parser outputs more detailed syntax error messages. - Added asn1_decode_simple_der() and asn1_encode_simple_der(). - Added asn1_read_value_type() to return value and type. - Introduced ASN1_ETYPE_UTC_TIME and ASN1_ETYPE_GENERALIZED_TIME * Noteworthy changes in release 3.0 (2012-10-28) [stable] - Added tool in tests/ to benchmark X.509 structure decoding. - Added asn1_read_node_value() to obtain a node's value. - Optimizations in internal tree allocation. - Optimizations in tree search. - libtasn1.h no longer exports internal structures. - Types were renamed for consistency: ASN1_DATA_NODE -> asn1_data_node_st ASN1_ARRAY_TYPE -> asn1_static_node ASN1_TYPE -> asn1_node ASN1_TYPE_EMPTY -> NULL static_struct_asn -> asn1_static_node_st node_asn_struct -> asn1_node_st node_asn -> asn1_node_st (the old types are still available as definitions) * Noteworthy changes in release 2.13 (2012-05-31) [stable] - Updated fix for DER decoding issue to not depend on specific compilers. - Updated DER decoding check to apply to short form integers as well. * Noteworthy changes in release 2.12 (2012-03-19) [stable] - Cleanup license headers. - build: Update gnulib files. - Corrected DER decoding issue (reported by Matthew Hall).
