SSL according to RFC 2712. His comment is:
This is a patch to openssl-SNAP-20010702 to support Kerberized SSL
authentication. I'm expecting to have the full kssl-0.5 kit up on
sourceforge by the end of the week. The full kit includes patches
for mod-ssl, apache, and a few text clients. The sourceforge URL
is http://sourceforge.net/projects/kssl/ .
Thanks to a note from Simon Wilkinson I've replaced my KRB5 AP_REQ
message with a real KerberosWrapper struct. I think this is fully
RFC 2712 compliant now, including support for the optional
authenticator field. I also added openssl-style ASN.1 macros for
a few Kerberos structs; see crypto/krb5/ if you're interested.
Add new extension functions which work with NCONF.
Tidy up extension config routines and remove redundant code.
Fix NCONF_get_number().
Todo: more testing of apps to see they still work...
application do that.
NOTE: there's no requirement for other UI_METHODs to avoid this kind
of loop. For example, a GUI UI_METHOD would probably check the
lengths of the answers from within instead of being constantly
redisplayed for everything that is wrong.
Implement UI controls. Current controls are the possibility to output
the OpenSSL error stack on the same channel from within UI_process()
and to check if the same user interface can be redone without being
rebuilt (this is often more a question of philosophy than
technicalities).
applications to use EVP. Add missing calls to HMAC_cleanup() and
don't assume HMAC_CTX can be copied using memcpy().
Note: this is almost identical to the patch submitted to openssl-dev
by Verdon Walker <VWalker@novell.com> except some redundant
EVP_add_digest_()/EVP_cleanup() calls were removed and some changes
made to avoid compiler warnings.
with arbitrary arguments instead of just a string.
- Change the key loaders to take a UI_METHOD instead of a callback
function pointer. NOTE: this breaks binary compatibility with
earlier versions of OpenSSL [engine].
- Addapt the nCipher code for these new conditions and add a card
insertion callback.
prompting, application-defined prompts, the possibility to use
defaults (for example default passwords from somewhere else) and
interrupts/cancelations.
In the new crypto/ui/, this was changed into tty (which is usually
/dev/tty), i.e. the FILE * used for reading passwords from the user.
However stdio buffering for read/write streams is not without pitfalls
(passwords would be echoed on some systems).
To avoid problems, split tty into tty_in and tty_out (which are
opened separately).
