$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .17; $DATE="2000-09-04";
- got rid of an implicit char* conversion compile warnings
for SSL_get_cipher
+ random seeding now occurs with RAND_seed() on random data
from the C call stack, works more consistently than RAND_load_file
from Ben's patch.
+ integrated patches from Ben Laurie for better error messaging
and random seed initialization
+ set_cipher_list initialized from $ENV{CRYPT_SSLEAY_CIPHER}
where before it was initialized from $ENV{SSL_CIPHER}, patch
from Ben Laurie, so ENV setting not conflict with Apache-SSL
+ tested POST LWP requests and updated documentation indicating
that such use is supported
+ net_ssl_test now checks https://www.nodeworks.com by default
which has high uptime so should be fine.
+ first argument to perl Makefile.pl must be an absolute path
for it to be used as default OpenSSL build path
+ define PL_sv_undef symbols for older perls that don't support
it, alias to sv_undef
$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .16; $DATE="2000-02-25";
+ = improvement; - = bug fix
- changes sv_undef calls to PL_sv_undef, since sv_undef is no
longer supported under the latest dev releases of perl 5.0056
$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .15; $DATE="1999-11-23";
+ reordered header includes for ActiveState people, likely
for easier compiling with perl object.
+ Added support for cranky SSLv3 sites. These are sites
that don't acknowledge SSLv23 requests, such as:
https://www.evergreen-funds.com
https://ecomm.sella.it
So now, the module will try connects to SSL servers in
this order: SSLv23, SSLv3, SSLv2
None of the sites that I tested required only SSLv2 connects,
but it is there just in case.
+ using the call SSLeay_add_all_algorithms(); instead of
SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms(), because the latter symbol
was not defined on one person's installation.
$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .14; $DATE="1999-10-03";
+ = improvement; - = bug fix
+ added support for RSAref tweaked OpenSSL
$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .12; $DATE="1999-09-13";
+ Converted // style comments to /* */ for build
support of Sun's native cc
$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .11; $DATE="1999-08-16";
+ New connection strategy suggested by OpenSSL list,
first try connecting with SSLv23. This negotiates
the more secure SSL3 first, and then downgrades to
SSLv2 if first unsuccessful. For buggy servers that
can't handle the SSLv23 negotiation, Net::SSL then
tries a raw SSLv2 connection.
This method works for all servers tested, and has
the advantage of tranmitting data via the most secure
SSL3 method if available.
+ Connects to buggy SSLv2 sites as well as SSLv3
sites & normal SSLv2 sites.
Buggy SSLv2: https://banking.wellsfargo.com
SSLv3: https://www.accountonline.com/CB/MainMenu.idcl
SSLv2: https://www.nodeworks.com
$MODULE=Crypt::SSLeay; $VERSION = .11; $DATE="1999-08-10";
+ Worked through __umoddi3 undef symbol error
for building on Solaris x86. See README build notes.
+ I try to provide backwards compatible building
with SSLeay (< v.0.9.2)
+ Will pick up ssl distributions installed at
/usr/local/openssl, and /usr/local/ssl ... openssl
headers should be at $SSL_DIR/include/openssl
for compilation to work, see README for installation hints.
- Added SSL 3.0 support with SSLv3_client_method()
This method will autonegotiate SSL2 or SSL3,
and works for web sites that require SSL3
+ Added build support in Makefile.PL for WinNT, MS Visual C++
+ Added support for OpenSSL v.0.9.4

Release 0.07
Applied patch from Andreas Gustafsson <gson@araneus.fi> which
make this module compile on WinNT with ActivePerl and MS Visual C++.
For others that try to build on this platform, Andreas also said:
"In addition to making these source changes, I also had to
resort to editing the MakeMaker-generated makefile by hand to
fix various library paths. Unfortunately, I am not familiar
enough with either MakeMaker or NT to provide a clean fix for
this problem."
1998-01-13 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no>
Release 0.06 and 0.05
Fixed test script t/ssl_context.t
SSL->connect can return 0. Fixed bug in Net::SSL
1998-01-12 Gisle Aas <aas@sn.no>
Release 0.04
Mention depreciation in the README. Eric's version of the SSLeay
glue will replace this module (as well as Sampo Kellomaki's Net::SSLeay).
