215
216- Dropped support for Python 3.3.
217  `#677 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/677>`_
218- Removed the deprecated ``OpenSSL.rand`` module.
219  This is being done ahead of our normal deprecation schedule due to its lack of use and the fact that it was becoming a maintenance burden.
220  ``os.urandom()`` should be used instead.
221  `#675 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/675>`_

258

273
274
275Backward-incompatible changes:
276^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
277
278- Removed the deprecated ``OpenSSL.rand.egd()`` function.
279  Applications should prefer ``os.urandom()`` for random number generation.
280  `#630 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/630>`_
281- Removed the deprecated default ``digest`` argument to ``OpenSSL.crypto.CRL.export()``.
282  Callers must now always pass an explicit ``digest``.
283  `#652 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/652>`_
284- Fixed a bug with ``ASN1_TIME`` casting in ``X509.set_notBefore()``,
285  ``X509.set_notAfter()``, ``Revoked.set_rev_date()``, ``Revoked.set_nextUpdate()``,
286  and ``Revoked.set_lastUpdate()``. You must now pass times in the form
287  ``YYYYMMDDhhmmssZ``. ``YYYYMMDDhhmmss+hhmm`` and ``YYYYMMDDhhmmss-hhmm``
288  will no longer work. `#612 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/612>`_
289
290
291Deprecations:
292^^^^^^^^^^^^^
293
294
295- Deprecated the legacy "Type" aliases: ``ContextType``, ``ConnectionType``, ``PKeyType``, ``X509NameType``, ``X509ExtensionType``, ``X509ReqType``, ``X509Type``, ``X509StoreType``, ``CRLType``, ``PKCS7Type``, ``PKCS12Type``, ``NetscapeSPKIType``.
296  The names without the "Type"-suffix should be used instead.
297
298
299Changes:
300^^^^^^^^
301
302- Added ``OpenSSL.crypto.X509.from_cryptography()`` and ``OpenSSL.crypto.X509.to_cryptography()`` for converting X.509 certificate to and from pyca/cryptography objects.
303  `#640 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/640>`_
304- Added ``OpenSSL.crypto.X509Req.from_cryptography()``, ``OpenSSL.crypto.X509Req.to_cryptography()``, ``OpenSSL.crypto.CRL.from_cryptography()``, and ``OpenSSL.crypto.CRL.to_cryptography()`` for converting X.509 CSRs and CRLs to and from pyca/cryptography objects.
305  `#645 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/645>`_
306- Added ``OpenSSL.debug`` that allows to get an overview of used library versions (including linked OpenSSL) and other useful runtime information using ``python -m OpenSSL.debug``.
307  `#620 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/620>`_
308- Added a fallback path to ``Context.set_default_verify_paths()`` to accommodate the upcoming release of ``cryptography`` ``manylinux1`` wheels.
309  `#633 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/633>`_

330Changes:
331^^^^^^^^
332
333- Added ``OpenSSL.X509Store.set_time()`` to set a custom verification time when verifying certificate chains.
334  `#567 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/567>`_
335- Added a collection of functions for working with OCSP stapling.
336  None of these functions make it possible to validate OCSP assertions, only to staple them into the handshake and to retrieve the stapled assertion if provided.
337  Users will need to write their own code to handle OCSP assertions.
338  We specifically added: ``Context.set_ocsp_server_callback()``, ``Context.set_ocsp_client_callback()``, and ``Connection.request_ocsp()``.
339  `#580 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/580>`_
340- Changed the ``SSL`` module's memory allocation policy to avoid zeroing memory it allocates when unnecessary.
341  This reduces CPU usage and memory allocation time by an amount proportional to the size of the allocation.
342  For applications that process a lot of TLS data or that use very lage allocations this can provide considerable performance improvements.
343  `#578 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/578>`_
344- Automatically set ``SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto()`` on ``OpenSSL.SSL.Context``.
345  `#575 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/575>`_
346- Fix empty exceptions from ``OpenSSL.crypto.load_privatekey()``.

400  `#483 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/483>`_
401- ``OpenSSL.crypto.PKey`` can now be constructed from ``cryptography`` objects and also exported as such.
402  `#439 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/439>`_
403- Support newer versions of ``cryptography`` which use opaque structs for OpenSSL 1.1.0 compatibility.

408
40916.0.0 (2016-03-19)
410-------------------
411
412This is the first release under full stewardship of PyCA.
413We have made *many* changes to make local development more pleasing.
414The test suite now passes both on Linux and OS X with OpenSSL 0.9.8, 1.0.1, and 1.0.2.
415It has been moved to `pytest <https://docs.pytest.org/>`_, all CI test runs are part of `tox <https://tox.readthedocs.io/>`_ and the source code has been made fully `flake8 <https://flake8.readthedocs.io/>`_ compliant.
416
417We hope to have lowered the barrier for contributions significantly but are open to hear about any remaining frustrations.
418
419
420Backward-incompatible changes:
421^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
422
423- Python 3.2 support has been dropped.
424  It never had significant real world usage and has been dropped by our main dependency ``cryptography``.
425  Affected users should upgrade to Python 3.3 or later.
426
427
428Deprecations:
429^^^^^^^^^^^^^
430
431- The support for EGD has been removed.
432  The only affected function ``OpenSSL.rand.egd()`` now uses ``os.urandom()`` to seed the internal PRNG instead.
433  Please see `pyca/cryptography#1636 <https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/pull/1636>`_ for more background information on this decision.
434  In accordance with our backward compatibility policy ``OpenSSL.rand.egd()`` will be *removed* no sooner than a year from the release of 16.0.0.
435
436  Please note that you should `use urandom <https://sockpuppet.org/blog/2014/02/25/safely-generate-random-numbers/>`_ for all your secure random number needs.
437- Python 2.6 support has been deprecated.
438  Our main dependency ``cryptography`` deprecated 2.6 in version 0.9 (2015-05-14) with no time table for actually dropping it.
439  pyOpenSSL will drop Python 2.6 support once ``cryptography`` does.
440
441
442Changes:
443^^^^^^^^
444
445- Fixed ``OpenSSL.SSL.Context.set_session_id``, ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.renegotiate``, ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.renegotiate_pending``, and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Context.load_client_ca``.
446  They were lacking an implementation since 0.14.
447  `#422 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/422>`_
448- Fixed segmentation fault when using keys larger than 4096-bit to sign data.
449  `#428 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/428>`_
450- Fixed ``AttributeError`` when ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_app_data()`` was called before setting any app data.
451  `#304 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/304>`_
452- Added ``OpenSSL.crypto.dump_publickey()`` to dump ``OpenSSL.crypto.PKey`` objects that represent public keys, and ``OpenSSL.crypto.load_publickey()`` to load such objects from serialized representations.
453  `#382 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/382>`_
454- Added ``OpenSSL.crypto.dump_crl()`` to dump a certificate revocation list out to a string buffer.
455  `#368 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/368>`_
456- Added ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_state_string()`` using the OpenSSL binding ``state_string_long``.
457  `#358 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/358>`_
458- Added support for the ``socket.MSG_PEEK`` flag to ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.recv()`` and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.recv_into()``.
459  `#294 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/294>`_
460- Added ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_protocol_version()`` and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_protocol_version_name()``.
461  `#244 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/244>`_
462- Switched to ``utf8string`` mask by default.
463  OpenSSL formerly defaulted to a ``T61String`` if there were UTF-8 characters present.
464  This was changed to default to ``UTF8String`` in the config around 2005, but the actual code didn't change it until late last year.
465  This will default us to the setting that actually works.
466  To revert this you can call ``OpenSSL.crypto._lib.ASN1_STRING_set_default_mask_asc(b"default")``.
