  13 catacomb (2.5.0) experimental; urgency=medium
  14
  15   * catacomb: MACs based on blockciphers: PMAC1 and CMAC (also known as
  16     OMAC).
  17   * catacomb: Authenticated Encryption with Additional Data (AEAD)
  18     schemes.  Some based on blockciphers: CCM, EAX, GCM (with CPU-specific
  19     acceleration), OCB1 and OCB3 (OCB2 is broken).  Also Salsa20 and
  20     ChaCha20 with Poly1305: the RFC7539 scheme, and the NaCl `secret_box'
  21     transform.
  22   * catacomb: Implement Grantham's Frobenius test.  Combine it with
  23     Rabin--Miller, as Baillie--PSW, for testing given primes.
  24   * catacomb-bin (catcrypt): Support AEAD schemes for bulk crypto.
  25   * catacomb-bin (perftest): Options for batching; report cycle counts
  26     where available.
  27   * Many internal improvements: better documentation, debugging, testing,
  28     etc.

 136 catacomb (2.3.0.1) experimental; urgency=low
 137
 138   * catacomb2: Actually make the stack non-executable rather than just
 139     pretending.

 142
 143 catacomb (2.3.0) experimental; urgency=low
 144
 145   * catacomb2: Use the correct Oakley 2048 group.  For a long time, this
 146     was a duplicate of the Oakley 1536 group.  There's a compatibility
 147     break here, but it's for the best.
 148   * catacomb2: Include `.note.GNU-stack' sections in the assembler code,
 149     so that the process stack doesn't get marked executable.
 150   * catacomb2: New SSE2-based multipliers for i386 and AMD64.
 151   * catacomb2: Lots of other improvements to the assembler code.

 156
 157   * catacomb2 (ARM AES): Fix crash from `rijndael*_init' when key material
 158     is unaligned.
 159   * build: Use less obsolete macro names in configure script.

 162
 163 catacomb (2.2.4) experimental; urgency=low
 164
 165   * build: Fix build failures on post-wheezy Debian versions.
 166   * catacomb2: Use ARM AES instructions if available.  (But they can't be
 167     assembled using wheezy's version of gas, so this doesn't work in the
 168     binary package.)
 169   * catacomb2: Fix poor performance (and wrong answers for very small
 170     numbers) in prime generation.
 171   * catacomb2: Return numbers of exactly the requested length in prime and
 172     public-key generation.  The `strongprime' and `limlee' algorithms have
 173     changed as a result; previously verifiable parameters generated using
 174     this algorithm won't be verifiable any more.
 175   * catacomb-dev: Deprecate the old `dsa' functions.  Use `gdsa' instead.

 180
 181   * rand: Make the main generator resiliant in the face of fork(2).
 182   * rand: Introduce `rand_quick', which may also mix in CPU-level
 183     randomness sources.
 184   * rand: Use higher-resolution timer in the quick-win noise source.
 185   * debian: Pick up correct `catacomb-dev' Depends entry from 2.2.1.1
 186     which got lost down the side of the sofas.

 193   * Miscellaneous small fixes for Cygwin.
 194   * catacomb2 (mp_testbit): Fix overread on reading one-bit-past-the-end;
 195     particularly, this causes a segfault reading bit zero of a zero-length
 196     integer.

 200 catacomb (2.2.1.1) experimental; urgency=low

 217   * catacomb-bin: Report error taking factorial of negative input.
 218   * catacomb2: Fix EC_FIND and EC_NEG on 2-torsion points of prime curves.
 219   * catacomb-dev: Support multiple flavours of EC point compression.
 220   * catacomb2: Fix theoretical rsa_recover crash if factoring loop runs
 221     out of prime numbers.
 222   * catacomb2: Overhaul crypto primitives used in true-random generator.
 223   * catacomb-bin: Improve rspit: high-resolution timing, and 64-bit size
 224     support.
 225   * catacomb-dev: New conversions between MP integers and C integer types.
 226   * catacomb2: Change gcipher for Seal incompatibly.  The IV is now
 227     big-endian bytes (rather than `uint32'), and the `block size' is 4.
 228   * catacomb2: Mix a constant string into DSA nonce generation to improve
 229     resistance to protocol interference.
 230   * catacomb2: Fix the freewheel random source, which hasn't been enabled
 231     for ages due to a configure-script bug.
 232   * catacomb-bin: The key tool can now read and write multiple
 233     presentations for key fingerprints.
 234   * catacomb2, catacomb-dev: Support Daniel Bernstein's Salsa20 and ChaCha
 235     stream ciphers.
