| | | | | | | | undocumented because they are unused outside libcrypto according to codesearch.debian.net and should probably not be public: they seem hardly useful even for implementing custom EVP_CIPHER algorithms. tb@ came to similar conclusions regarding these two functions.

* Correct the RETURN VALUES of OBJ_add_object(3).schwarze2023-09-061-6/+33
| | | | | | | | The text was misleading before and after the improvement in obj_dat.c rev. 1.61. The way i'm fixing the documentation here takes that improvement into account. Also add a CAVEATS section about adding incomplete objects.

* Improve error handling in OBJ_add_object()tb2023-09-051-13/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no need for a helper function to obfuscate lh_ADDED_OBJ_new(). Just call the real thing directly. Adding an object with a NID of NID_undef basically amounts to disabling a built-in OID. It does so in an incoherent fashion and the caller can't easily tell success from failure of the operation. Arguably the result is a corrupted objects table. Let's not allow adding such an object in an attempt at keeping things slightly more coherent. Issue noted and initial diff by schwarze while writing documentation ok schwarze

* Partial rewrite:schwarze2023-09-051-140/+231
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Integrate the leftovers of the former NOTES section into the main text, resulting in a more logical order of information. * Make many descriptions more precise and tweak many wordings. For example, the description of OBJ_cmp(3) was totally misleading. Add a CAVEATS section explaining the scary ownership contracts of the functions returning ASN1_OBJECT pointers. Move the discussion of NID_undef to the BUGS section because the statement "objects which are not in the table have the NID value NID_undef" was misleading in more than one way. Considering that an API as fundamental as this one contains such a gigantic amount of quirks and traps and gaps makes me shudder.

* Fix EVP_PKEY_get0_RSA() for RSA-PSStb2023-09-011-6/+6
| | | | | | It currently returns NULL. This is OpenSSL 4088b926 + De Morgan. ok jsing

* Split three new manual pages EVP_CIPHER_nid(3), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl(3),schwarze2023-08-316-451/+727
| | | | | | | | | | | and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_flags(3) out of the excessively large and unwieldy EVP_EncryptInit(3). This causes a number of inaccuracies and gaps to stand out, but i'm not mixing text changes or content additions into this split. Using very useful feedback from tb@ regarding what belongs together and how important the various functions are. I refrained from bothering him with the complete patch, but he likes the general direction.
* Ensure no memory is leaked after passing NULL to ASN1_TIME_normalize()libressl-v3.8.1job2023-08-302-2/+7
| | | | OK tb@
* Document EVP_{CIPHER,MD}_do_all{,_sorted}(3)tb2023-08-303-3/+139
| | | | | | | | | | The function prototypes in the SYNOPSIS don't look great, but schwarze assures me that this is how it is supposed to be. It is rather strange that OpenSSL chose to sprinkle OPENSSL_init_crypto() calls into these four functions rather than two inside OBJ_NAME_do_all{,_sorted}(3). Surely there was a good reason for that. With input and fixes from schwarze
* Fix leaks in copy_issuer()tb2023-08-301-8/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The stack of subject alternative names from the issuer is parsed using X509V3_EXT_d2i(), so it must be freed with sk_GENERAL_NAME_pop_free(). It's not worth doing complicated ownership handling when the individual alternative names can be copied with GENERAL_NAME_dup(). Previously, ialt and its remaining members would be leaked when the call to sk_GENERAL_NAME_push() failed halfway through. This is only reachable via the issuer:copy x509v3.cnf(5) directive. ok jsing
* Replace last ecdh.h and ecdsa.h occurrences with ec.htb2023-08-294-16/+12
| | | | | | Except if backward compatibility with older LibreSSL and OpenSSL versions is explicitly needed, ecdsa.h and ecdh.h should no longer be used. They are now trivial wrappers of ec.h.
* Move the weak SHA-1 and MD5 hashes out of EVP_DigestInit(3)schwarze2023-08-274-46/+138

* Write documentation for EVP_CIPHER_CTX_buf_noconst(3) from scratch.schwarze2023-08-261-5/+42
| | | | | | | Put it here rather than into EVP_EncryptInit(3) because similar to EVP_CIPHER_CTX_get_cipher_data(3), application software should not use it. These functions will likely not be needed except by people implementing custom encryption algorithms.

* Clarify how the EVP IV is used with ChaChatb2023-08-241-8/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | EVP_chacha20() was aligned to follow OpenSSL's nonconformant implementation during a2k20 by djm and myself in an effort to allow OpenSSH to use the OpenSSL 1.1 API. Some corresponding OpenSSL 1.1 documentation was imported at the same time. A comment attempted to translate between implementation and the incorrect documentation, which was necessarily gibberish. Improve the situation by rephrasing and dropping nonsensical bits. Prompted by a question of schwarze
