+ plug some memory leaks, from cppcheck via Thomas Klausner (thanks!)
+ make the singular of time units read correctly
+ print decryption key info properly when prompting for passphrase
small steps, but lots of them - this is the first one.
+ print out the correct key information when signing files and memory.
what used to be printed out was the copy of the public key which is
stored as part of the private key(!). does not address the info shown
when decrypting, since that is done in a different way, by callback.
this whole part needs to be re-written, but will have to wait for two
good hands.
Changes to 1.99.17/20100208
+ get rid of last 2 static variables - use the __ops_printstate_t struct
passed down, and add the indent variable here too
+ get rid of 3 occurrences in reader.c where an automatic buffer was
addressed (as part of a subsequent callback) by a struct field from
a calling scope, and only valid within the callback. Found by
Flexelint and phk - many thanks.
+ print filename/"memory" when time problems occur when validating signatures
+ minor simplifications to netpgp(1) internally
+ fix a bug in netpgp_verify_file where a non-existent file while listing
packets would cause a SIGSEGV
+ add duration arg to netpgp(1), and check for validity when verifying
signatures
+ add birthtime arg to netpgp(1), and check for validity when verifying
signatures
+ add netpgp commands to print pubkey, if desired
+ allow the passphrase for the signature to be taken from --pass-fd
+ get rid of static indent value when printing packet contents
+ print signature validity times when verifying a file's signature
commands with no file arguments, as input will now be taken from stdin,
and output will go to stdout, if no file arguments are given on the
command line.
+ some ssh host keys do not have the username of the generator included
in the key itself. If there is no username in there, create one.
+ added netpgp_encrypt_memory() and netpgp_decrypt_memory()
+ overhaul netpgp(1) to work with stdin/stdout if no filenames specified:

+ add explanations of memory-based operations to manual pages
Apart from infrastructure changes, there are the following functional ones:
+ Update to version 20091210
+ provide a new netpgp_match_list_keys(3) function to perform a
regular-expression based search of all the keys in the keyring. If no
pattern is specified to match, then all keys are returned.
+ provide a new netpgp_set_homedir(3) function, and use it to set the
home directory from the library, rather than individually in all the
programs which use the library
+ provide a new netpgp_incvar(3) function which will add a constant
increment (which may be negative) to the value of an internal
variable. This is primarily used for the verbosity level within the
library, and is again a movement of the function into the library from
the individual programs which use the library
+ move to the specification of an ssh key file by internal variable,
rather than the directory holding an ssh key file
+ autoconf infrastructure changes
+ take a hammer to the _GNU_SOURCE definitions problems
+ don't rely on strnlen(3) being present everywhere
specified.
+ The internal variable "sshetcdir" has been renamed to "sshkeydir"
+ When matching the text fields in the username, use an ICASE, NOSUB, EXTENDED
regular expression. This allows more advanced ways of searching, such as:
% netpgpkeys --list-keys '\.de\>'
to find all the keys in the default keyring which have an email address
in Germany. This is actually surprisingly useful.
These keys can be used in the same way as normal PGP keys - to sign, verify,
encrypt and decrypt files and data.

The ssh host keys do not need to be manipulated in any way - the information

the write function stack for the body of the message as well as the

This means that an ascii-armoured signed file created by netpgp conforms
to RFC 4880 (and 2440, thanks, moof[1]), and can be verified by gpg now, as
well as netpgp.
[1] Are there any other RFCs which are superceded by their double?
+ add a netpgp library function - netpgp_get_key(3) - to print a
specific key
+ add functionality to call this function in netpgpkeys(1)
+ add test for netpgp_get_key
+ add a verbose switch to the tst script
+ add netpgp functions to expose the memory signing and verification
functions - netpgp_sign_memory(3) and netpgp_verify_memory(3)
+ coalesced signing and verification ops file functions
Revamp hash initialisation to return a success/failure error code.
Document places where we prefer to continue with a NULL buffer,
rather than silently continue with possibly erroneous results.
and expects to work with IPV6. Tell the hints that we only want IPV4
for now, so that we don't try to bind to an IPV6 address as returned
by getaddrinfo, and then we bash in V4 in the family!
jeez
Don't require a userid to be set in the gpg.conf file - it can be set
on the command line when it's needed (for signing and encryption, the
other operations in netpgp(1) will take the userid from the
signed/encrypted file).
Add tests for the lack of a default userid in the config file.
CHANGES 1.99.11 -> 1.99.12
+ only prompt for the passphrase for the secret key if the secret key is
protected by a passphrase
+ portability fix for Mac OS X
+ address keys array from 0 with unsigned indices
+ print results to io->res stream - default to stderr, and set using
netpgp_setvar(..., "results", filename)
+ __ops_keyid()'s third arg was always the size of the keyid array - no need
to pass it
+ get rid of the excessive type-checking in packet-show-cast.h, which wasn't
necessary, and fold all the show routines into packet-show.c
+ introduce a generic __ops_new() and use it for some structure allocation
The original code had dynamic arrays indexed by unsigned indices,
except for the array of keys, which was indexed by a signed integer,
and initialised to -1. Subsequently, when a new id was created, the
index was pre-incremented, and later on, in a different call, the
userid (a different packet) was assigned to the current index. This
has implications for growing the array, for signed comparison checks,
and just general cleanliness.
This change overhauls the construct: don't special case anything,
just address the array from 0, use unsigned indices same as everything
else, and complain if we get a user id for which we haven't received a
public or secret key.
+ fix a bug in decryption whereby a bad passphrase would cause a segmentation
violation
+ fix some regressions in key searching in the underlying find keys routines
+ add C++ declaration protection to the external interface in netpgp.h
+ split out the key management parts of netpgp(1) into netpgpkeys(1)
+ make more use of __ops_io_t structure
+ addition of standalone, stripped-down netpgpverify utility
+ addition of test for --list-packets on an empty file
+ bring forward some simplifications from netpgpverify
+ some name changes
+ get rid of the increment and then decrement keycount around
accumulated data ("it's to do with counting")
+ then use unsigned integers for the size and counts for the
dynamic array of keys, and use the common dynamic array macros
for keys in a keyring
+ if it's a union, let's use it as a union, not a struct
+ modified documentation to correct the --list-packets command (sorry, ver)
+ add a new directory structure for both the distribution and the
reachover Makefiles. The autotest framework has been partially overhauled
but more TLC is needed here.
+ add a --pass-fd=n option so that external programs can provide the
passphrase on a file descriptor without going through the callback,
requested by joerg
+ get rid of __ops_malloc_passphrase() - strdup() works just as well
+ generalise __ops_seckey_forget() to become __ops_forget(), give it a size
parameter, and make it work on things other than secret keys (passphrases
for instance)
+ minor struct field enum renaming
+ minor function call renaming
+ add ops_io_t struct to hold pointers to IO streams, and pass it down
where necessary
+ added to the regression tests
+ get rid of some magic constants, replace with more obvious names
+ zero out the memory used for a passphrase before freeing it in one place
+ made --homedir=d consistent with POLS. Default is $HOME/.gnupg, and
if a directory is specified with --homedir=d, the directory containing
conf file and keyrings is taken to be "d".
+ Luke Mewburn completely overhauled the auto tools infrastructure
+ changed signature (hah!) of some netpgp file management prototypes to
use const char * for file names and user ids, not char * - suggested by
christos
+ change some of the openpgpsdk display functions to return integer values,
and send those values back from the netpgp functions - suggested by
christos
+ rather than passing a shedload of variables to netpgp_init(), get rid
of them, and set variables using the netpgp_[gs]etvar() interface
+ replace some magic constants with descriptive names
+ use a netpgp variable to skip userid checks if necessary
+ add ability to allow coredumps via --coredumps if (a) you have taken
leave of your sanity, and (b) you have some magical persistent
storage which doesn't spare sectors, and (c) you know how to remove
a file securely
+ bumped library version on NetBSD to 1.0 for interface changes
- use automake to generate the Makefile.in
- style reorg in configure.ac
- ensure <openssl/sha.h> provides SHA256_CTX (openssl 0.9.8 or greater)
- move the "build helpers" to buildaux
- add a rudimentary (and not yet functional) test suite
(There's still more to do.)
Per chat with Alistair.
+ get rid of some magic constants
+ revamped regression test script to count number of tests passed
+ made checkhash array in ops_seckey_t dynamic, rather than statically
allocated
+ made mdc array dynamic, and added a length field to mdc for future use
+ revamped usage message to match reality
+ made portable version again for the autoconfed package sources
+ add separate netpgpdigest.h file so that separate digest sizes can be
used without having to include "packet.h" in everything
+ modified regression tests to make it easier to see status messages
+ modified --encrypt, --decrypt, --sign, and --clearsign as well as --cat
to respect the --output argument for the output file. Default behaviour
remains unchanged - if --output is not specified, standard file names
and suffixes apply. Note that --verify has not been changed - this is
for compatibility with gpg, POLA/POLS, and because --verify-cat/--cat
provides this behaviour
+ various minor cleanups
+ fix longstanding pasto where the key server preference packets are
displayed with the correct ptag information
+ up until now, there has been an asymmetry in the command line
options for netpgp(1) - whilst a file may have signature information
added to it with the "--sign" command, there has been no way to
retrieve the contents of the file without the signature. The new
"--cat" option does this (there are synonyms of "--verify-show" and
"--verify-cat") - the signature is verified, and if it matches, the
original contents of the file are sent to the output file (which
defaults to stdout, and can be set with the --output option on the
command line). If the signature does not match, there is no output,
and an EXIT_FAILURE code is returned.
+ revamped netpgp(1) to make it clear what commands are available, how
these commands relate to each other, and which commands take custom
options
+ released and tagged version 1.0.0; development version now 1.99.1
+ get rid of some fields which are no longer needed
+ minor name changes
+ add mmapped field to ops_data_t struct to denote that the array needs an
munmap(2) and not a free(3)
+ add an __ops_mem_readfile() function, and use it for reading files.
The function does mmap(2), and then falls back to read(2) if that fails.
Retire unused __ops_fileread() which had an unusual interface
+ drop sign_detached() from netpgp.c down into signature.c as
__ops_sign_detached()
+ we've had the ability to sign files with a detached signature for
a while now. We can now verify the files using the detached signature
file.
+ in honour of this, update version numbers - 1.0.0/20090517
unsigned or not - just use a single character itself
+ misc cleanup
+ rename cinfo to "output" and ops_createinfo_t to "ops_output_t" to
be a bit more descriptive
+ shorten some long names
+ get rid of test for libgen.h - it's not needed anymore
+ bump to version 0.99.4, and 20090515 sources, regenerate configure and co
+ numerous name changes to be more consistent and more concise
+ add verbosity level to the variables that can be set and retrieved by
netpgp_setvar() and netpgp_getvar()
+ added --verbose option to netpgp(1)
+ add __RCSID() to all files
code was modified to all be in the same directory
+ added netpgp_getvar() and netpgp_setvar(), and use them to get and set the
user id and hash algorithm preference
+ get rid of <stdbool.h> usage - I'm still not sure this is the way we should
be going long term, but the bool changes got integrated with the others,
and are there in cvs history if we want to resurrect them. Correct autoconf
accordingly. Bump netpgp minimus version, and autoconf-based date version.
+ updated documentation to reflect these changes
+ minor name changes
+ remove duplicated code (commented out) in packet-print.c
+ original code contained abstraction violations for hash size - fix them
+ get rid of some magic constants related to length of hash arrays
+ allow a choice of hash algorithms for the signature digest (rather
than hardcoding SHA1 - it is looking as though collisions are easier
to manufacture based on recent findings)
+ move default signature RSA hash algorithm to SHA256 (from SHA1). This is
passed as a string parameter from the high-level interface. We'll
revisit this later after a good way to specify the algorithm has been
found.
+ display the size of the keys in --list-packets
+ display the keydata prior to file decryption
+ if setrlimit exists, set the core dump size to be 0
(with thanks to mrg for the reference implementation)
+ get rid of __ops_start_cleartext_sig/__ops_start_msg_sig abstractions
and just "export" the __ops_start_sig function - the function is not
actually exported, just usable by other __ops functions
+ bump internal version number to 0.99.2, autoconf version to 20090506
+ prettify usage message output
+ __ops_parser_content_t -> __ops_packet_t
+ rename some other long names
51 chars is the record function name length so far
+ preliminary moves to support detached signatures
as yet, incomplete
+ add back command line option to list packets in a signed or encrypted file
+ make __ops_parse() take an argument whether to print errors, and kill the
__ops_parse_and_print_errors() function
+ get rid of some assertions in the code - this is a library - about 100 to go
