2021-05-12HTTP client: Minimal changes that include the improved APIDr. David von Oheimb
This is a minimal version of pull request #15053 including all the proposed improvements to the HTTP client API and its documentation but only those code adaptations strictly needed for it. The proposed new features include * support for persistent connections (keep-alive), * generalization to arbitrary request and response types, and * support for streaming BIOs for request and response data. The related API changes include: * Split the monolithic OSSL_HTTP_transfer() into OSSL_HTTP_open(), OSSL_HTTP_set_request(), a lean OSSL_HTTP_transfer(), and OSSL_HTTP_close(). * Split the timeout functionality accordingly and improve default behavior. * Extract part of OSSL_HTTP_REQ_CTX_new() to OSSL_HTTP_REQ_CTX_set_expected().

Add a child OSSL_LIB_CTX that will mirror the providers loaded into the parent libctx.

2021-05-05Enforce secure renegotiation support by defaultBenjamin Kaduk
Previously we would set SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT by default in SSL_CTX_new(), to allow connections to legacy servers that did not implement RFC 5746. It has been more than a decade since RFC 5746 was published, so there has been plenty of time for implmentation support to roll out. Change the default behavior to be to require peers to support secure renegotiation. Existing applications that already cleared SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT will see no behavior change, as re-clearing the flag is just a little bit of redundant work. The old behavior is still available by explicitly setting the flag in the application. Also remove SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT from SSL_OP_ALL, for similar reasons. Document the behavior change in CHANGES.md, and update the SSL_CTX_set_options() and SSL_CONF_cmd manuals to reflect the change in default behavior.

2021-04-28Add X509 version constants.David Benjamin
The X509 version APIs return the numerical values of the version numbers, which are one off from the names. This is a bit confusing. Where they don't get it wrong (accidentally making an "X509v4" certificate), callers tend to try commenting every call site to explain the mismatch, including in OpenSSL itself. Define constants for these values, so code can be self-documenting and callers are nudged towards the right values.

2021-04-28Improve the implementation of X509_STORE_CTX_get1_issuer()Tomas Mraz
It is possible for the stack of X509_OBJECTs held in an X509_STORE_CTX to have a custom compare function associated with it. Normally (by default) this uses X509_NAME_cmp(). The X509_STORE_CTX_get1_issuer() function assumed that it would always be X509_NAME_cmp(). By implementing OPENSSL_sk_find_all() function we can avoid explicitly using X509_NAME_cmp() in X509_STORE_CTX_get1_issuer().
