- verify the hostname inside a certificate by default with a superset of
common verification schemes instead of not verifying identity at all.
For now it will only complain if name verification failed, in the future
it will fail certificate verification, forcing you to set the expected
SSL_verifycn_name if you want to accept the certificate.
- new option SSL_fingerprint and new methods get_fingerprint and
get_fingerprint_bin. Together they can be used to selectively accept
specific certificates which would otherwise fail verification, like
self-signed, outdated or from unknown CAs.
This makes another reason to disable verification obsolete.
- Utils:
- default RSA key length 2048
- digest algorithm to sign certificate in CERT_create can be given,
defaults to SHA-256
- CERT_create can now issue non-CA selfsigned certificate
- CERT_create add some more useful constraints to certificate

1.966 2014/01/21
- fixed bug introduced in 1.964 - disabling TLSv1_2 worked no longer with
specifying !TLSv12, only !TLSv1_2 worked
- fixed leak of session objects in SessionCache, if another session
replaced an existing session (introduced in 1.965)
1.965 2014/01/16
- new key SSL_session_key to influence how sessions are inserted and looked
up in the clients session cache. This makes it possible to share sessions
over different ip:host (like required with some FTPS servers)
- t/core.t - handle case, were default loopback source is not 127.0.0.1, like
in FreeBSD jails

- new version 0.951
* better document builtin defaults for key,cert,CA and how they are depreceated
* use Net::SSLeay::SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_paths to use
openssl's builtin defaults for CA unless CA path/file was given
* MAJOR BEHAVIOR CHANGE:
ssl_verify_mode now defaults to verify_peer for client. Until
now it used verify_none, but loudly complained since 1.79 about
it. It will not complain any longer, but the connection might
probably fail. Please don't simply disable ssl verification, but
instead set SSL_ca_file etc so that verification succeeds!
* MAJOR BEHAVIOR CHANGE:
it will now complain if the builtin defaults of certs/my-ca.pem
or ca/ for CA and certs/{server,client}-{key,cert}.pem for cert
and key are used, e.g. no certificates are specified explicitly.
In the future these insecure (relative path!) defaults will be
removed and the CA replaced with the system defaults.
* Makefile.PL reported wrong version of openssl, if Net::SSLeay was not
installed instead of reporting missing dependency to Net::SSLeay.
* need at least OpenSSL version 0.9.8 now, since last 0.9.7 was released 6
years ago. Remove code to work around older releases.
* changed AUTHOR in Makefile.PL from array back to string, because the
array feature is not available in MakeMaker shipped with 5.8.9 (RT#85739)
* Intercept: use sha1-fingerprint of original cert for id into cache unless
otherwise given
* Fix pod error in IO::Socket::SSL::Utils RT#85733
* added IO::Socket::SSL::Utils for easier manipulation of certificates and keys
* moved SSL interception into IO::Socket::SSL::Intercept and simplified it
using IO::Socket::SSL::Utils
* enhance meta information in Makefile.PL
* RT#85290, support more digest, especially SHA-2.

+ consider a value of '' the same as undef for SSL_ca_(path|file)
+ complain if given SSL_(key|cert|ca)_(file|path) do not exist or
if they are not readable
+ disabled client side SNI for openssl version < 1.0.0
+ added functions can_client_sni, can_server_sni, can_npn to check
avaibility of SNI and NPN features. Added more documentation for
SNI and NPN
+ Server Name Indication (SNI) support on the server side
+ sub error sets $SSL_ERROR etc only if there really is an error,
otherwise it will keep the latest error. This causes
IO::Socket::SSL->new.. to report the correct problem, even if
the problem is deeper in the code (like in connect)
+ deprecated set_ctx_defaults, new name ist set_defaults
+ changed handling of default path for SSL_(ca|cert|key)* keys: either
if one of these keys is user defined don't add defaults for the
others, e.g. don't mix user settings and defaults
+ cleaner handling of module defaults vs. global settings vs. socket
specific settings
+ prepare transition to a more secure default for SSL_verify_mode.
The use of the current default SSL_VERIFY_NONE will cause a big warning
for clients, unless SSL_verify_mode was explicitly set inside the
application to this insecure value.
In the near future the default will be SSL_VERIFY_PEER, and thus
causing verification failures in unchanged applications.
+ use getnameinfo instead of unpack_sockaddr_in6 to get PeerAddr and
PeerPort from sockaddr in _update_peer, because this provides scope
+ work around systems which don't defined AF_INET6
+ update_peer for IPv6 also
+ no longer depend on Socket.pm 1.95 for inet_pton, but use

* schema http for certificate verification changed to
wildcards_in_cn=1, because according to rfc2818 this is valid
and also seen in the wild
* if upgrading socket from inet to ssl fails due to handshake
problems the socket gets downgraded, but is still open.
* depreceate kill_socket, just use close()
