This new OpenSSL version is mostly a bugfix release and incorporates at least 23 changes to the toolkit (for a complete list see ). The most significant changes are: o Various SSL/TLS library bugfixes. o Fix DH parameter generation for 'non-standard' generators. We consider OpenSSL 0.9.6d to be the best version of OpenSSL available and we strongly recommend that users of older versions upgrade as soon as possible. OpenSSL 0.9.6d is available for download via HTTP and FTP from the following master locations (you can find the various FTP mirrors under o https://openssl-library.org:443/source/ o [1] OpenSSL comes in the form of two distributions this time. The reasons for this is that we want to deploy the external crypto device support but don't want to have it part of the "normal" distribution just yet. The distribution containing the external crypto device support is popularly called "engine", and is considered experimental. It's been fairly well tested on Unix and flavors thereof. If run on a system with no external crypto device, it will work just like the "normal" distribution. The distribution file names are: o openssl-0.9.6d.tar.gz [normal] o openssl-engine-0.9.6d.tar.gz [engine] Yours, The OpenSSL Project Team... Mark J. Cox Richard Levitte Andy Polyakov Ralf S.
