The master sources are maintained in our git repository, which is accessible over the network and cloned on GitHub, at https://github.com/openssl/openssl. Bugs and pull patches (issues and pull requests) should be filed on the GitHub repo. Please familiarize yourself with the license. The table below lists the latest releases for every branch. (For an explanation of the numbering, see our release strategy.) All releases can be found at /source/old. A list of mirror sites can be found here. Note: The latest stable version is the 1.1.1 series. This is also our Long Term Support (LTS) version, supported until 11th September 2023. All older versions (including 1.1.0, 1.0.2, 1.0.0 and 0.9.8) are now out of support and should not be used. Users of these older versions are encouraged to upgrade to 1.1.1 as soon as possible. Extended support for 1.0.2 to gain access to security fixes for that version is available. The OpenSSL FIPS Object Module 2.0 (FOM) is also available for download. It is no longer receiving updates. It must be used in conjunction with a FIPS capable version of OpenSSL (1.0.2 series). A new FIPS module is currently in development. OpenSSL 3.0 is the next major version of OpenSSL that is currently in development and includes the new FIPS Object Module. A pre-release version of this is available below. This is for testing only. It should not be used in production. For an overview of some of the key concepts in OpenSSL 3.0 see the libcrypto manual page. Information and notes about migrating existing applications to OpenSSL 3.0 are available in the OpenSSL 3.0 Migration Guide.

QUIC and OpenSSL. Posted by OpenSSL Management Committee , Feb 17 th , 2020 12:00 pm. QUIC is a new protocol which the IETF talks about as A UDP-Based Multiplexed and Secure Transport, and has attracted a lot of attention lately. The OpenSSL Management Committee (OMC) have followed the development with interest, and we feel that we owe it to the community to say where we stand on this, and on the inclusion of support for this protocol in our libraries. Update on 3.0 Development, FIPS and 1.0.2 EOL. Posted by Matt Caswell , Nov 7 th , 2019 4:00 pm. We have previously talked about our plans for OpenSSL 3.0 and FIPS support here. This blog post will give an update about what has been happening since then. Binaries. Some people have offered to provide OpenSSL binary distributions for selected operating systems. The condition to get a link here is that the link is stable and can provide continued support for OpenSSL for a while. Note: many Linux distributions come with pre-compiled OpenSSL packages. Those are already well-known among the users of said distributions, and will therefore not be mentioned here. If you are such a user, we ask you to get in touch with your distributor first. This service is primarily for operating systems where there are no pre-compiled OpenSSL packages.

  • Cryptography
    56 Protecting Information With Cryptography Chapter by Peter Reiher (UCLA) 56.1 Introduction In previous chapters, we’ve discussed clarifying your security goals, determining your security policies, using authentication mechanisms to identify principals, and using access control mechanisms to enforce poli- cies concerning which principals can access which computer resources in which ways. While we identified a number of shortcomings and prob- lems inherent in all of these elements of securing your system, if we re- gard those topics as covered, what’s left for the operating system to worry about, from a security perspective? Why isn’t that everything? There are a number of reasons why we need more. Of particular im- portance: not everything is controlled by the operating system. But per- haps you respond, you told me the operating system is all-powerful! Not really. It has substantial control over a limited domain – the hardware on which it runs, using the interfaces of which it is given control. It has no real control over what happens on other machines, nor what happens if one of its pieces of hardware is accessed via some mechanism outside the operating system’s control. But how can we expect the operating system to protect something when the system does not itself control access to that resource? The an- swer is to prepare the resource for trouble in advance. In essence, we assume that we are going to lose the data, or that an opponent will try to alter it improperly. And we take steps to ensure that such actions don’t cause us problems.

UNLOCKING THE FIFTH AMENDMENT: PASSWORDS AND ENCRYPTED DEVICES Laurent Sacharoff* Each year, law enforcement seizes thousands of electronic devices— smartphones, laptops, and notebooks—that it cannot open without the suspect’s password. Without this password, the information on the device sits completely scrambled behind a wall of encryption. Sometimes agents will be able to obtain the information by hacking, discovering copies of data on the cloud, or obtaining the password voluntarily from the suspects themselves. But when they cannot, may the government compel suspects to disclose or enter their password? This Article considers the Fifth Amendment protection against compelled disclosures of passwords—a question that has split and confused courts. It measures this right against the legal right of law enforcement, armed with a warrant, to search the device that it has validly seized.
