Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.4 (2009-01-22)
2
------------------------------------------------
4
* Publish GCRY_MODULE_ID_USER and GCRY_MODULE_ID_USER_LAST constants.
5
This functionality has been in Libgcrypt since 1.3.0.
7
* MD5 may now be used in non-enforced fips mode.
9
* Fixed HMAC for SHA-384 and SHA-512 with keys longer than 64 bytes.
11
* In fips mode, RSA keys are now generated using the X9.31 algorithm
12
and DSA keys using the FIPS 186-2 algorithm.
14
* The transient-key flag is now also supported for DSA key
15
generation. DSA domain parameters may be given as well.
18
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.3 (2008-09-18)
19
------------------------------------------------
21
* Try to auto-initialize Libgcrypt to minimize the effect of
22
applications not doing that correctly. This is not a perfect
23
solution but given that many applicationion would totally fail
24
without such a hack, we try to help at least with the most common
25
cases. Folks, please read the manual to learn how to properly
28
* Auto-initialize the secure memory to 32k instead of aborting the
31
* Log fatal errors via syslog.
33
* Changed the name and the semantics of the fips mode config file.
35
* Add convenience macro gcry_fips_mode_active.
39
* Documentation cleanups.
42
Noteworthy changes in version 1.4.2 (2008-09-08)
43
------------------------------------------------
45
* The long missing gcry_mpi_lshift function has been added.
47
* RSA key generation now supports a "transient-key" flag.
49
* The keygrip computation for ECDSA has been implemented thus ECDSA
50
is now fully supported.
52
* A few macros have been replaced by functions for better type
55
* The thread initialization structure now carries version
58
* The manual describes more clearly how to initialize Libgcrypt.
60
* The library may now be switched into a FIPS mode.
62
* Interface changes relative to the 1.3.0 release:
