January 6th 2001: (version 2.4.9) |
2 |
|
|
- Blowfish algorithm was corrected in order to be compatible with other |
3 |
|
|
blowfish implementations. WARNING: if you used the previous algorithm |
4 |
nmav |
1.9 |
use "blowfish-compat" instead. |
5 |
|
|
There is no security problem in the previous algorithm just an endianness |
6 |
|
|
problem. |
7 |
nmav |
1.10 |
- Fixes in mcrypt_list_algorithms() for some systems. Bugs pointed out by |
8 |
|
|
Jonathan Woolmington <jwool@ind.tansu.com.au> |
9 |
nmav |
1.11 |
- mcrypt_generic_init() no longer fails if smaller key is used. It uses |
10 |
|
|
the most appropriate key size of the algorithm and pads with zeros. |
11 |
nmav |
1.12 |
- Wake algorithm removed. |

34 |
|
|
- Bugfixes |
35 |
|
|
- Internal changes in mode modules |

|
|
38 |
|
|
March 19th, 2000: (version 2.4.0) |
39 |
|
|
- Corrected bugs in the extra algorithms. |
40 |
|
|
- Libmcrypt is now thread safe without need for posix thread locks. |
41 |
|
|
- Libmcrypt is no longer compatible with 2.2 or 2.3 version. |
42 |
|
|
- Speedups in the library. |
43 |
|
|
- The crypt algorithm has changed. In order for it's output to be compatible |
44 |
|
|
with the unix crypt output, the key must be generated using crypt(3). |
45 |
|
|
This was made in order to remove the key transformation, which was |
46 |
|
|
included in the algorithm. |
47 |
|
|
- The crypt algorithm was renamed to enigma. |
48 |
|
|
- Changed many function's names in order to minimize namespace polution. |

52 |
|
|
- Improved POSIX Threads detection by Sascha Schumann |
53 |
|
|
- Arcfour was renamed to arcfour-iv. The arcfour algorithm now does not |
54 |
|
|
support iv (as the original algorithm does). |
55 |
|
|
- Modes for block algorithms are not limited any more to a 256 bit block size. |
56 |
|
|

for mcrypt 2.5.0 to be able to compile against that series of libmcrypt. |
66 |
|
|
|
67 |
|
|
February 22, 2000: |
68 |
|

75 |
|
|
|
76 |
|
|
January 21st, 2000: |
77 |
|
|
- Locks were added to libltdl calls so libmcrypt is still thread safe. |
78 |
|
|
|
79 |
|
|
January 20th, 2000: (version 2.3.0) |
80 |
|
|
- Tried to include libltdl. Not succesful yet. It compiles but it does |
81 |
|
|
not work. |
82 |

129 |
|
|
__setkey() to keep some libcs happy. |
130 |

|
|
|
134 |
|
|

135 |
|
|

136 |
|
|
des(1). |
137 |
|
|
|
138 |
|
|
November 20th, 1999: |
139 |

142 |
|
|
November 17th, 1999: |

147 |
|
|
- Blowfish algorithm was changed, it is now compatible with other implementations. |
148 |
|
|
- Accessing algorithms is now different. You do not specify TWOFISH_256, to |
149 |
|
|
access TWOFISH algorithm with 256 bit key, but TWOFISH with keylength of |
150 |
|
|
32 bytes (==256 bits). This is more flexible than the previous API since |
151 |
|
|
you can access more keys. |
152 |
|
|
|
153 |
|
|
October 16th, 1999: |
154 |
|
|
- The new API is completed. |

|
175 |
|
|
September 20th, 1999: |
176 |
|
|
- Fixes in RC2, RC6 and SAFER+ code, so they work the same way in |
177 |
|
|
big-endian and little-endian machines. |
178 |
|
|
- Porting of SERPENT, MARS and RIJNDAEL is not ready, they do |
179 |
|
|
not work right in bigendian machines. |
180 |
|
|
- Bugfixes in the tests. Tests failed if one or two algorithms failed. |
181 |
|
|
|
182 |
|
|
September 19th, 1999 |
183 |
|
|

|
|
|
185 |
|
|
September 15th, 1999 |
186 |
|
|
- MARS and RIJNDAEL were added in 128,192,256 key modes. |
187 |
|
|
- RC6 was splitted to RC6_128, RC6_192 and RC6_256 (the old RC6 is equal to RC6_256) |
188 |
|
|
- RC2 was splitted to RC2_128, RC2_256 and RC2_1024 (the old RC2 is equal to RC2_1024) |
189 |
|
|
|
190 |
|
|
September 14th, 1999 |
191 |
|
|
- Twofish code was changed. Now it uses Dr Brian Gladman's code. |

|
|
|
194 |
|
|
June 26th, 1999 |

|
|
|
197 |
|
|
June 23th, 1999 |
198 |
|
|
- RC2 code was cleared. |
199 |
|
|
- RC6 was changed according to the specification. It is RC6 32/20/32. |
200 |
|
|
RC6, SAFER+, LOKI97 and CAST-256 codes are actually Dr Brian Gladman's |
201 |
|
|
code a bit modified for mcrypt. |
202 |
|
|
- shared library version has changed (at last!) |
203 |
|
|
|
204 |
|
|
June 22th, 1999 |
205 |
|
|
- SAFER+, LOKI97 and CAST-256 Added. |

|
|
|
207 |
|
|
June 15th, 1999 - Version 2.2 |
208 |
|
|
- Changes in the xTEA algorithm. Some extra parenthesis made the algorithm |
209 |
|
|
differ from the specification. Pointed out by Lars Nordentoft |
210 |
|
|
<lntech@post9.tele.dk>. Read the README.xtea for more information. |
211 |
|
|
|
212 |
|
|
June 12th, 1999 - Version 2.1.1 |
213 |
|
|
- Changes in the documentation which was inaccurate. |
214 |
|
|
|
215 |
|
|
June 11th, 1999 - Version 2.1 |
216 |
|
|
- _mcrypt_ was placed as a prefix to all internal functions so they |
217 |
|
|
do not pollute namespace. |
218 |
|
|
|
219 |
|
|
May 29th, 1999 |
220 |
|
|
- test suites added |
221 |
|
|
- Blowfish was divided to blowfish-448, -256, -192, -128. |
222 |
|
|
- CBC can now accept IV |
223 |
|
|
- mlock and munlock is used before mallocing and freeing any memory, |
224 |
|
|
thus if such capabilities exist the library guarrantees that no |
225 |
|
|
password is written in the disk (as swap etc.) |
226 |
|
|
- gen_key_md5() was added and gen_key() was renamed to gen_key_sha1() |
227 |
|
|
gen_key() is still defined to be gen_keysha1(). |
228 |
|
|
|
229 |
|
|
May 26th, 1999 - Version 2.0 |
230 |
|
|
- Documentation was incorrect and innacurate. Corrected. |
231 |
|
|
- A #define WORDS_BIGENDIAN 0 was removed from acconfig.h, this |
232 |
|
|
was confusing all the library headers, and thus the library was |
233 |
|
|
useless. |
234 |
|
|
- nbit-ofb mode added. n is the blocksize of the algorithm. Still |
235 |
|
|
experimental. |
236 |
|
|
|
237 |
|
|
May 24th, 1999 - Version 1.93 |
238 |
|
|
- defined get_block_size to be mcrypt_get_block_size so php3.0.8 compiles ok |
239 |
|
|
|
240 |
|
|
May 17th, 1999 - Version 1.9 |
241 |
|
|
- gen_key() changed |
242 |
|
|
- libtool support (based on Sascha Schumann's patches) |
