- Resolves: #796295
Introduced in 0.13:
* Fix NSS SECITEM_CompareItem bug via workaround.
* Fix incorrect format strings in PyArg_ParseTuple* for:
- GeneralName
- BasicConstraints
- cert_x509_key_usage
* Fix bug when decoding certificate BasicConstraints extension
* Fix hang in setup_certs.
* For NSS >= 3.13 support CERTDB_TERMINAL_RECORD
* You can now query for a specific certificate extension
Certficate.get_extension()
* The following classes were added:
- RSAGenParams
* The following class methods were added:
- nss.nss.Certificate.get_extension
- nss.nss.PK11Slot.generate_key_pair
- nss.nss.DSAPublicKey.format
- nss.nss.DSAPublicKey.format_lines
* The following module functions were added:
- nss.nss.pub_wrap_sym_key
* The following internal utilities were added:
- PyString_UTF8
- SecItem_new_alloc()
* The following class constructors were modified to accept
intialization parameters
- KEYPQGParams (DSA generation parameters)
* The PublicKey formatting (i.e. format_lines) was augmented
to format DSA keys (formerly it only recognized RSA keys).
* Allow lables and values to be justified when printing objects
* The following were deprecated:
- nss.nss.make_line_pairs (replaced by nss.nss.make_line_fmt_tuples)
Deprecated Functionality:
-------------------------
- make_line_pairs() has been replaced by make_line_fmt_tuples()
because 2-valued tuples were not sufficently general. It is
expected very few programs will have used this function, it's mostly
used internally but provided as a support utility.
Introduced in 0.12:
* Major new enhancement is additon of PKCS12 support and
AlgorithmID's.
* setup.py build enhancements
- Now searches for the NSS and NSPR header files rather
than hardcoding their location. This makes building friendlier
on other systems (i.e. debian)
- Now takes optional command line arguments, -d or --debug
will turn on debug options during the build.
* Fix reference counting bug in PK11_password_callback() which
contributed to NSS not being able to shutdown due to
resources still in use.
* Add UTF-8 support to ssl.config_server_session_id_cache()
* Added unit tests for cipher, digest, client_server.
* All unittests now run, added test/run_tests to invoke
full test suite.
* Fix bug in test/setup_certs.py, hardcoded full path to
libnssckbi.so was causing failures on 64-bit systems,
just use the libnssckbi.so basename, modutil will find
it on the standard search path.
* doc/examples/cert_dump.py uses new AlgorithmID class to
dump Signature Algorithm
* doc/examples/ssl_example.py now can cleanly shutdown NSS.
* Exception error messages now include PR error text if available.
* The following classes were replaced:
- SignatureAlgorithm replaced by new class AlgorithmID
* The following classes were added:

Tue Mar 22 2011 John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> - 0.11-3
- Resolves: #689807
Add family parameter to Socket constructors in examples and doc.
Mark implicit family parameter as deprecated.
Raise exception if Socket family does not match NetworkAddress family.
Add --server-subject to setup_certs.py (made testing IPv6 easier without DNS)
-
Tue Mar 01 2011 John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> - 0.11-2
- Resolves: #670951
- Resolves: #674014
Rebuild enabling api doc generation, it had been disabled because
the buildroots on 6.1 contained a verion of epydoc that crashed,
release engineering has updated epydoc in the buildroots.
There are NO changes in the package source.

Wed Feb 23 2011 John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> - 0.11-1
- Resolves: #670951
- Resolves: #674014
* Better support for IPv6
* Add AddrInfo class to support IPv6 address resolution. Supports
iteration over it's set of NetworkAddress objects and provides
hostname, canonical_name object properties.
* Add PR_AI_* constants.
* NetworkAddress constructor and NetworkAddress.set_from_string() added
optional family parameter. This is necessary for utilizing
PR_GetAddrInfoByName().
* NetworkAddress initialized via a string paramter are now initalized via
PR_GetAddrInfoByName using family.
* Add NetworkAddress.address property to return the address sans the
port as a string. NetworkAddress.str() includes the port. For IPv6 the
a hex string must be enclosed in brackets if a port is appended to it,
the bracketed hex address with appended with a port is unappropriate
in some circumstances, hence the new address property to permit either
the address string with a port or without a port.
* Fix the implementation of the NetworkAddress.family property, it was
returning bogus data due to wrong native data size.
* HostEntry objects now support iteration and indexing of their
NetworkAddress members.
* Add io.addr_family_name() function to return string representation of
PR_AF_* constants.
* Modify example and test code to utilize AddrInfo instead of deprecated
NetworkAddress functionality. Add address family command argument to
ssl_example.
* Fix pty import statement in test/setup_certs.py
Deprecated Functionality:
-------------------------
* NetworkAddress initialized via a string paramter is now
deprecated. AddrInfo should be used instead.
* NetworkAddress.set_from_string is now deprecated. AddrInfo should be
used instead.
* NetworkAddress.hostentry is deprecated. It was a bad idea,
NetworkAddress objects can support both IPv4 and IPv6, but a HostEntry
object can only support IPv4. Plus the implementation depdended on
being able to perform a reverse DNS lookup which is not always
possible.
* HostEntry.get_network_addresses() and HostEntry.get_network_address()
are now deprecated. In addition their port parameter is now no longer
respected. HostEntry objects now support iteration and
indexing of their NetworkAddress and that should be used to access
their NetworkAddress objects instead.

-
Mon Jan 10 2011 John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> - 0.10-1
- Resolves: #619743, Update to latest upstream, changes include:
- The following classes were added:
InitParameters
InitContext
-The following module functions were added:
nss.nss.nss_initialize()
nss.nss.nss_init_context()
nss.nss.nss_shutdown_context()
nss.nss.nss_init_flags()
- add nss_is_initialized()
- Remove nss_init_nodb() when nss modules loads from previous version
apparently this prevents subsequent calls to nss_init with a
database to silently fail.
- Clean up some cruft in doc/examples/verify_server.py
- Invoke nss_init_nodb() when nss modules loads, this prevents segfaults
in NSS if Python programmer forgot to call one of the NSS
initialization routines.
- Rename the classes X500Name, X500RDN, X500AVA to DN, RDN, AVA
respectively.
- DN and RDN objects now return a list of their contents when indexed by
type, this is to support multi-valued items.
- Fix bug where AVA object's string representation did not include it's
type.
- Enhance test/test_cert_components.py unit test to test for above
changes.
- Add CertificateRequest object
- Fix incomplete read bug (due to read ahead buffer bookkeeping).
- Remove python-nss specific httplib.py, no longer needed
python-nss now compatible with standard library
- Rewrite httplib_example.py to use standard library and illustrate
ssl, non-ssl, connection class, http class usage
- add nss.cert_usage_flags(), use it in ssl_example.py
- Add format_lines() & format() methods to the new certificate extension objects.
- Add printing of certificate extensions.
- Add BasicContstraints certificate extension.
- Fix several reference counting and memory problems discovered with valgrind.
- fold in more ref counting patches from Miloslav Trmač <mitr@redhat.com>
into upstream.
Did not bump upstream version, just bumped release ver in this spec file.
- Unicode objects now accepted as well as str objects for
interfaces expecting a string.
- Sockets were enhanced thusly:
- Threads will now yield during blocking IO.
- Socket.makefile() reimplemented
file object methods that had been missing (readlines(), sendall(),
and iteration) were implemented, makefile now just returns the same
Socket object but increments an "open" ref count. Thus a Socket
object behaves like a file object and must be closed once for each
makefile() call before it's actually closed.
- Sockets now support the iter protocol
- Add Socket.readlines(), Socket.sendall()
- The following classes were added:
AuthKeyID
BasicConstraints
CRLDistributionPoint
