package x509

v0.8.1 (2019-10-10)

• export Private_key.decode_der and encode_der

v0.8.0 (2019-10-10)

• export X509.Distinguished_name.common_name : t -> string option, which extracts the common name of a distinguished name

• Distinguished_name.t is now a Relative_distinguished_name.t list, a Relative_distinguished_name is a Set.S with element type attribute, a variant. It used to be an attribute (expressed as GADT) Gmap.t, but this representation did not conform to RFC 5280, reported by @paurkedal (#117, fixed by #118)

• Now using Set.find_first_opt, which bumps lower OCaml bound to 4.05.0

• Improved pretty-printing for DNs including RFC 4514 conformance (@paurkedal, #119).

• Extension.pp now outputs extension key and its value (#120)

• rename Distinguished_name.SP constructor (stateOrProvince) to ST, as widely used (#121)

• support Street and UID in Distinguished_name to satisfy RFC 4514 demands (#121)

v0.7.1 (2019-08-09)

• revert General_name.t (DNS and IP components) to string/Cstruct.t list

  • NameConstraints uses DNSname with strings with leading dots (.example.com), which are not valid RFC1034 domain names

  • NameConstraints uses IP with IP/netmask, i.e. using 8 octets for an IPv4 address

  • X509.Certificate.hostnames still return a Domain_name.Set.t

  • reported by @reynir

• drop ipaddr dependency

0.7.0 (2019-07-24)

• major restructuring, it is unlikely any pre-0.7.0 users will work with 0.7.0+

• remove sexp de&encoders

• provide pretty-printers for validation errors (and types) instead of to_string functions

• use result type and Rresult instead of custom result types and control monad

• use a GADT map for certificate & csr extensions, distinguished names, general names (avoiding multiple extensions with the same OID, uses the gmap library)

• use domain-name library for hostname validation (instead of custom string matching)

• use ipaddr library for IPs in SubjectAlternativeName extension

• remove Encoding module, provide {en,de}code_{der,pem} in the respective modules (which decoders return (_, [> `Msg of string ]) result, no exceptions raised)

• fix DistributionPoint extension: the CRLissuer is a GeneralName, not a DistinguishedName

• remove Extension.reason_code (Extension.reason was there before, and is now used)

• remove bindings from toplevel, t is now Certificate.t, public_key is now Public_key.t

• use alcotest instead of oUnit

0.6.3 (2019-04-02)

• provide X509.Encoding.distinguished_name_of_cs -- similar to #87 which provided distinguished_name_to_cs

• provide X509.Encoding.{public_key_of_cstruct,public_key_to_cstruct}, as requested by @dinosaure

• support of cstruct 4.0.0, which split up the sexp de&encoders

• removes result dependency (now requires >= 4.04.2)

• upgrades opam file to version 2.0

• build system is now dune

0.6.2 (2018-08-24)

• compatibility with ppx_sexp_conv >v0.11.0 (#109), required for 4.07.0

0.6.1 (2017-12-21)

• provide X509.distinguished_name sexp converter (#103)

• drop non-exported X509_types module from distinguished_name (#102, @yomimono)

0.6.0 (2017-12-13)

• Certificate Revocation List (CRL) support (#99)

• track asn1-combinators 0.2.0 changes (#97)

• provide Extension.subject_alt_names (#95)

• compute length of certificate length, instead of hardcoding 4 (#95)

• enable safe-string (#89)

• use astring instead of custom String_ext.split (#89)

• use topkg instead of oasis (#88, #89)

• provide Encoding.cs_of_distinguished_name (#87 by @reynir)

0.5.3 (2016-09-13)

• provide Encoding.parse_signing_request and Encoding.cs_of_signing_request (#81)

• provide validity : t -> (Time.t * Time.t) (#86, fixes #85)

0.5.2 (2016-04-13)

• fix building of certificate paths

0.5.1 (2016-03-21)

• use ppx_sexp_conv instead of sexplib.syntax

• no more Stream syntax, use lists

0.5.0 (2015-12-04)

• avoid dependency on sexplib.syntax (#55)

• document how to combine extensions and a CSR into a certificate (@reynir, #63 #64)

• expose fingerprint : t -> hash -> Cstruct.t, the hash of the certificate (@cfcs, #66)

• trust_fingerprint / server_fingerprint are renamed to trust_cert_fingerprint / server_cert_fingerprint (now deprecated!)

• fingerprint public keys (rather than certificates): trust_key_fingerprint / server_key_fingerprint

• build certificate paths from the received set (RFC 4158) instead of requiring a strict chain (#74)

• the given trust anchors to Authenticator.chain_of_trust are not validated (to contain KeyUsage / BasicConstraint extensions) anymore, users can use valid_ca and valid_cas to filter CAs upfront

0.4.0 (2015-07-02)

• certificate signing request support (PKCS10)

• basic CA functionality (in CA module): create and sign certificate signing requests

• PEM encoding of X.509 certificates, RSA public and private keys, and certificate signing requests

• new module Extension contains X509v3 extensions as polymorphic variants

• expose distinguished_name as polymorphic variant

• type pubkey is now public_key

• function cert_pubkey is now public_key

• functions supports_usage, supports_extended_usage are now in Extension module

• types key_usage, extended_key_usage are now in Extension module

• Encoding.Pem.Cert has been renamed to Encoding.Pem.Certificate

• Encoding.Pem.PK has been renamed to Encoding.Pem.Private_key (now uses type private_key instead of Nocrypto.Rsa.priv)

0.3.1 (2015-05-02)

• PKCS8 private key info support (only unencrypted keys so far)

0.3.0 (2015-03-19)

• more detailed error messages (type certificate_failure modified)

• no longer Printf.printf debug messages

• error reporting: Ok of certificate option | Fail of certificate_failure

• fingerprint verification can work with None as host (useful for client authentication where host is not known upfront)

• API reshape: X509 is the only public module, X509.t is the abstract certificate

0.2.1 (2014-12-21)

• server_fingerprint authenticator which validates the server certificate based on a hash algorithm and (server_name * fingerprint) list instead of a set of trust anchors

• whitelist CAcert certificates (which do not include mandatory X.509v3 KeyUsage extension)

0.2.0 (2014-10-30)

• expose Certificate.cert_hostnames, wildcard_matches

• Certificate.verify_chain_of_trust and X509.authenticate both return now [ Ok of certificate | Fail of certificate_failure ], where [certificate] is the trust anchor

0.1.0 (2014-07-08)

• initial beta release
