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
