* [CVE-2013-1445] Fix PRNG not correctly reseeded in some situations. In previous versions of PyCrypto, the Crypto.Random PRNG exhibits a race condition that may cause forked processes to generate identical sequences of \'random\' numbers. This is a fairly obscure bug that will (hopefully) not affect many applications, but the failure scenario is pretty bad. Here is some sample code that illustrates the problem: from binascii import hexlify import multiprocessing, pprint, time import Crypto.Random def task_main(arg): a = Crypto.Random.get_random_bytes(8) time.sleep(0.1) b = Crypto.Random.get_random_bytes(8) rdy, ack = arg rdy.set() ack.wait() return \"%s,%s\" % (hexlify(a).decode(), hexlify(b).decode()) n_procs = 4 manager = multiprocessing.Manager() rdys = [manager.Event() for i in range(n_procs)] acks = [manager.Event() for i in range(n_procs)] Crypto.Random.get_random_bytes(1) pool = multiprocessing.Pool(processes=n_procs, initializer=Crypto.Random.atfork) res_async = pool.map_async(task_main, zip(rdys, acks)) pool.close() [rdy.wait() for rdy in rdys] [ack.set() for ack in acks] res = res_async.get() pprint.pprint(sorted(res)) pool.join() The output should be random, but it looked like this: [\'c607803ae01aa8c0,2e4de6457a304b34\', \'c607803ae01aa8c0,af80d08942b4c987\', \'c607803ae01aa8c0,b0e4c0853de927c4\', \'c607803ae01aa8c0,f0362585b3fceba4\'] This release fixes the problem by resetting the rate-limiter when Crypto.Random.atfork() is invoked. It also adds some tests and a few related comments.- Add \"-fno-strict-aliasing\" to CFLAGS
* Wed Jun 12 2013 dmuellerAATTsuse.com- add ignore-fastmath-warning.diff for SLE11 and older
* Wed Apr 24 2013 highwaystar.ruAATTgmail.com- update to 2.6
* [CVE-2012-2417] Fix LP#985164: insecure ElGamal key generation. (thanks: Legrandin) In the ElGamal schemes (for both encryption and signatures), g is supposed to be the generator of the entire Z^
*_p group. However, in PyCrypto 2.5 and earlier, g is more simply the generator of a random sub-group of Z^
*_p. The result is that the signature space (when the key is used for signing) or the public key space (when the key is used for encryption) may be greatly reduced from its expected size of log(p) bits, possibly down to 1 bit (the worst case if the order of g is 2). While it has not been confirmed, it has also been suggested that an attacker might be able to use this fact to determine the private key. Anyone using ElGamal keys should generate new keys as soon as practical. Any additional information about this bug will be tracked at https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/985164
* Huge documentation cleanup (thanks: Legrandin).
* Added more tests, including test vectors from NIST 800-38A (thanks: Legrandin)
* Remove broken MODE_PGP, which never actually worked properly. A new mode, MODE_OPENPGP, has been added for people wishing to write OpenPGP implementations. Note that this does not implement the full OpenPGP specification, only the \"OpenPGP CFB mode\" part of that specification. https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/996814
* Fix: getPrime with invalid input causes Python to abort with fatal error https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/988431
* Fix: Segfaults within error-handling paths (thanks: Paul Howarth & Dave Malcolm) https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/934294
* Fix: Block ciphers allow empty string as IV https://bugs.launchpad.net/pycrypto/+bug/997464
* Fix DevURandomRNG to work with Python3\'s new I/O stack. (thanks: Sebastian Ramacher)
* Remove automagic dependencies on libgmp and libmpir, let the caller disable them using args.
* Many other minor bug fixes and improvements (mostly thanks to Legrandin)
* Mon Sep 03 2012 jengelhAATTinai.de- Make package build on RH6-like systems
* Thu May 24 2012 highwaystar.ruAATTgmail.com- python3 package added- minor spec improvement
* Mon Mar 12 2012 saschpeAATTgmx.de- Update to version 2.5:
* Added PKCS#1 encryption schemes (v1.5 and OAEP). We now have a decent, easy-to-use non-textbook RSA implementation. Yay!
* Added PKCS#1 signature schemes (v1.5 and PSS). v1.5 required some extensive changes to Hash modules to contain the algorithm specific ASN.1 OID. To that end, we now always have a (thin) Python module to hide the one in pure C.
* Added 2 standard Key Derivation Functions (PBKDF1 and PBKDF2).
* Added export/import of RSA keys in OpenSSH and PKCS#8 formats.
* Added password-protected export/import of RSA keys (one old method for PKCS#8 PEM only).
* Added ability to generate RSA key pairs with configurable public exponent e.
* Added ability to construct an RSA key pair even if only the private exponent d is known, and not p and q.
* Added SHA-2 C source code (fully from Lorenz Quack).
* Unit tests for all the above.
* Updates to documentation (both inline and in Doc/pycrypt.rst)
* All of the above changes were put together by Legrandin (Thanks!)
* Minor bug fixes (setup.py and tests).- Changes from version 2.4.1:
* Fix \"error: Setup script exited with error: src/config.h: No such file or directory\" when installing via easy_install. (Sebastian Ramacher)- Changes from version 2.4:
* Python 3 support! (Thorsten E. Behrens, Anders Sundman) PyCrypto now supports every version of Python from 2.1 through 3.2.
* Timing-attack countermeasures in _fastmath: When built against libgmp version 5 or later, we use mpz_powm_sec instead of mpz_powm. This should prevent the timing attack described by Geremy Condra at PyCon 2011: http://blip.tv/pycon-us-videos-2009-2010-2011/pycon-2011-through-the-side-channel-timing-and-implementation-attacks-in-python-4897955
* New hash modules (for Python >= 2.5 only): SHA224, SHA384, and SHA512 (Frédéric Bertolus)
* Configuration using GNU autoconf. This should help fix a bunch of build issues.
* Support using MPIR as an alternative to GMP.
* Improve the test command in setup.py, by allowing tests to be performed on a single sub-package or module only. (Legrandin)
* Fix double-decref of \"counter\" when Cipher object initialisation fails (Ryan Kelly)
* Apply patches from Debian\'s python-crypto 2.3-3 package (Jan Dittberner, Sebastian Ramacher): - fix-RSA-generate-exception.patch - epydoc-exclude-introspect.patch - no-usr-local.patch
* Fix launchpad bug #702835: \"Import key code is not compatible with GMP library\" (Legrandin)
* More tests, better documentation, various bugfixes.
* Thu Sep 01 2011 saschpeAATTsuse.de- Set license to Python-2.0, fixes bnc#715456
* Wed Aug 31 2011 saschpeAATTgmx.de- Drop pycrypto-2.1.0-ssize.patch to fix SLE build
* Wed Aug 31 2011 saschpeAATTgmx.de- Initial version, replaces python-crypto
