Changelog

1.0 - master

Note

This version is not yet released and is under active development.

• Switched to the new cffi set_source out-of-line API mode for compilation. This results in significantly faster imports and lowered memory consumption. Due to this change we no longer support PyPy releases older than 2.6 nor do we support any released version of PyPy3 (until a version supporting cffi 1.0 comes out).
• Support serialization of certificate signing requests using the public_bytes method of :class:`~cryptography.x509.CertificateSigningRequest`.
• Support serialization of certificates using the public_bytes method of :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate`.
• Add get_provisioning_uri method to :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.twofactor.hotp.HOTP` and :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.twofactor.totp.TOTP` for generating provisioning URIs.
• Add :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.concatkdf.ConcatKDFHash` and :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.kdf.concatkdf.ConcatKDFHMAC`.
• Raise a TypeError when passing objects that are not text as the value to :class:`~cryptography.x509.NameAttribute`.
• Add support for creating certificate signing requests with :class:`~cryptography.x509.CertificateSigningRequestBuilder`.

0.9.2 - 2015-07-04

• Updated Windows wheels to be compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.2c.

0.9.1 - 2015-06-06

• SECURITY ISSUE: Fixed a double free in the OpenSSL backend when using DSA to verify signatures. Note that this only affects PyPy 2.6.0 and (presently unreleased) CFFI versions greater than 1.1.0.

0.9 - 2015-05-13

• Removed support for Python 3.2. This version of Python is rarely used and caused support headaches. Users affected by this should upgrade to 3.3+.

• Deprecated support for Python 2.6. At the time there is no time table for actually dropping support, however we strongly encourage all users to upgrade their Python, as Python 2.6 no longer receives support from the Python core team.

• Add support for the :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.SECP256K1` elliptic curve.

• Fixed compilation when using an OpenSSL which was compiled with the no-comp (OPENSSL_NO_COMP) option.

• Support :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.DER` serialization of public keys using the public_bytes method of :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa.RSAPublicKeyWithSerialization`, :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dsa.DSAPublicKeyWithSerialization`, and :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePublicKeyWithSerialization`.

• Support :attr:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.Encoding.DER` serialization of private keys using the private_bytes method of :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.rsa.RSAPrivateKeyWithSerialization`, :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.dsa.DSAPrivateKeyWithSerialization`, and :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePrivateKeyWithSerialization`.

• Add support for parsing X.509 certificate signing requests (CSRs) with :func:`~cryptography.x509.load_pem_x509_csr` and :func:`~cryptography.x509.load_der_x509_csr`.

• Moved cryptography.exceptions.InvalidToken to :class:`cryptography.hazmat.primitives.twofactor.InvalidToken` and deprecated the old location. This was moved to minimize confusion between this exception and :class:`cryptography.fernet.InvalidToken`.

• Added support for X.509 extensions in :class:`~cryptography.x509.Certificate` objects. The following extensions are supported as of this release:

  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.BasicConstraints`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.AuthorityKeyIdentifier`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.SubjectKeyIdentifier`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.KeyUsage`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.SubjectAlternativeName`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.ExtendedKeyUsage`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.CRLDistributionPoints`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.AuthorityInformationAccess`
  • :class:`~cryptography.x509.CertificatePolicies`

  Note that unsupported extensions with the critical flag raise :class:`~cryptography.x509.UnsupportedExtension` while unsupported extensions set to non-critical are silently ignored. Read the :doc:`X.509 documentation</x509>` for more information.

• Fixed an issue where OpenSSL 1.0.1j changed the errors returned by some functions.
• Added our license file to the cryptography-vectors package.

0.6 - 2014-09-29

• Added :func:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.load_pem_private_key` to ease loading private keys, and :func:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.serialization.load_pem_public_key` to support loading public keys.
• Removed the, deprecated in 0.4, support for the salt_length argument to the :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.MGF1` constructor. The salt_length should be passed to :class:`~cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.padding.PSS` instead.
• Fix compilation on OS X Yosemite.

• Work around three GCM related bugs in CommonCrypto and OpenSSL.
  • On the CommonCrypto backend adding AAD but not subsequently calling update would return null tag bytes.
  • One the CommonCrypto backend a call to update without an empty add AAD call would return null ciphertext bytes.
  • On the OpenSSL backend with certain versions adding AAD only would give invalid tag bytes.

0.5.4 - 2014-08-20

• Added several functions to the OpenSSL bindings to support new functionality in pyOpenSSL.
• Fixed a redefined constant causing compilation failure with Solaris 11.2.

Previous versions of cryptography allowed tags to be truncated by default, applications wishing to preserve this behavior (not recommended) can pass the min_tag_length argument.
• Windows builds now statically link OpenSSL by default. When installing a wheel on Windows you no longer need to install OpenSSL separately. Windows users can switch between static and dynamic linking with an environment variable. See :doc:`/installation` for more details.
