Changes in 1.2.12

  • Fix: Correct a regression in the fix for 59797 that triggered a JVM crash on shutdown in some Tomcat unit tests when using the APR/native connector. (markt)

Changes in 1.2.11

  • Fix: 52627: Prevent a crash in File.infoGet() caused by the use of uninitialised variables. Based on patch by Ilya Maykov. (markt)
  • Fix: 55113: Document the process for creating a static tc-native library with a FIPS-enabled OpenSSL and update the nmake make file to support the process. (markt)
  • Fix: 55114: Clean up building instructions for the native component and expand the instructions for building for Windows platforms. (markt)
  • Fix: 55938: Resolve remaining clang-analyzer warnings. Note that the use of -1 to indicate the full array in File.(read|write)[Full] has been removed since it was only partially implemented and the implementation was faulty. (markt)
  • Fix: 58082: Update unit tests to use JUnit 4. Refactor unit tests into separate tests and use an external to reference them in the same way an external is used to reference the main code. (markt)
  • Fix: 59797: Ensure that the per thread error hash maintained by OpenSSL is cleaned up as individual threads exit to ensure it does not grow too large. Patch provided by Nate Clark. (markt)
  • Fix: 59996: Correctly handle building tc-native on a 64-bit system when using an OpenSSL distribution that is not in /usr. (csutherl)
  • Fix: 60388: The --disable-maintainer-mode option of the configure script no longer enables the maintainer mode. (ebourg)
  • Update: Update minimum recommended OpenSSL version to 1.0.2k. (markt)

Changes in 1.2.10

  • Update: Update minimum recommended OpenSSL version to 1.0.2j. (markt)

Changes in 1.2.9

  • Update: Update minimum recommended OpenSSL version to 1.0.2i. (markt)

Changes in 1.2.8

  • Fix: 59616: Correct the Windows build files so that OCSP is correctly enabled and disabled in the respective Windows binaries. (markt)
  • Fix: Correctly handle OS level EAGAIN return codes during non-blocking TLS I/O. (markt)
  • Fix: Correct a potential performance problem identified by Nate Clark due to Tomcat Native providing OpenSSL with thread identifiers poorly suited to the hash function used by OpenSSL when selecting a bucket for the hash that holds the per thread error data. Tomcat Native on Windows and on Solaris were not affected. A fix has been applied for OSX and Linux. Other platforms may still be affected. (markt/rjung)

Changes in 1.2.7

  • Update: Update minimum recommended OpenSSL version to 1.0.2h. (markt)

Changes in 1.2.6

  • Update: Change the OpenSSL version check in configure to be fatal. (rjung)
  • Update: Use new OpenSSL 1.1.0 protocol version max and min API when creating a new SSL context. (rjung)
  • Update: Improve renegotiation code and make it compatible with OpenSSL 1.1.0. (rjung)
  • Code: OpenSSL 1.1.0 compatibility updates. (rjung)
  • Fix: Fix some compiler warnings in native ssl code. (rjung)
  • Add: Add support for using Java keystores for certificate chains. (markt)
  • Update: Remove the explicit CRL check when verifying certificates. The checks were already part of the internal certification verification since OpenSSL 0.9.7. Backport from mod_ssl. (rjung)

Changes in 1.2.5

  • Update: Enable OpenSSL version check in configure by default. It can be turned off using --disable-openssl-version-check. (rjung)
  • Fix: 59024: Native function versionString() and for OpenSSL 1.1.0 also version() (both in in ssl.c) now return the OpenSSL run time version, not the compile time version. (rjung)
  • Code: Track changes in the OpenSSL master branch so it is possible to build Tomcat Native with that branch. (billbarker)

Changes in 1.2.4

  • Fix: SSL.getHandshakeCount(), which was unused, now returns the handshake completed count rather than the handshake started count. (remm)

Changes in 1.2.3

  • Fix: Remove Java classes that do not have C implementation code for their native methods in the current library. They were used for NPN support which is superseded by ALPN support in the current code. (kkolinko)
  • Fix: Fix typo in declaration of a stub method used when the library is compiled without OpenSSL support. (kkolinko)
  • Fix: Fix the signature of the implementation of the native SSL method newSSL() in the case when OPENSSL is not available. (rjung)
  • Fix: Fix the signature of the implementation of the native SSLSocket method getInfoB() to return jbyteArray instead of jobject. This is consistent with what it actually returns and how the native Java method is declared. (rjung)
  • Add: Add support for using Java keystores for certificates and keys. (jfclere)
  • Code: Remove code that performs a read after a renegotiation that appears to be unnecessary with OpenSSL 1.0.2. (billbarker)
  • Add: Expose SSL_renegotiate to the Java API. (remm)

Changes in 1.2.2

  • Fix: Fix broken debug and maintainer mode build. (rjung)
  • Fix: Forward port additional fixes to the OpenSSL I/O to align it with non-OpenSSL I/O. (markt)

Changes in 1.2.1

  • Fix: 58566: Enable Tomcat Native 1.2.x to work with Tomcat releases that do not have the necessary Java code to support SNI. (markt)
  • Update: Minor rework of "buildconf" script. (rjung)
  • Fix: Fix APR dependency version expression in RPM spec file. (rjung)
  • Fix: Fix major library version number in Windows build files, RPM spec file and build description. (rjung)
  • Fix: Remove files "KEYS" and "download_deps.sh" from Windows (zip) source distribution. (rjung)
  • Fix: Fix "unused variable" compiler warning. (rjung)

Changes in 1.2.0

  • Add: Add support for TLS extension SNI (Server Name Indication). (markt)
  • Add: Add support for OpenSSL BIO. (jfclere)
  • Add: Support wakeable pollsets and add Poll.interrupt() API. (mturk)
  • Add: Add Pool.unmanaged() API. (mturk)
