Python wrapper module around the OpenSSL library

High-level wrapper around a subset of the OpenSSL library. Includes

• SSL.Connection objects, wrapping the methods of Python’s portable sockets

• Callbacks written in Python

• Extensive error-handling mechanism, mirroring OpenSSL’s error codes

… and much more.

Release Information

17.4.0 (2017-11-21)

Backward-incompatible changes:

none

Deprecations:

none

Changes:

• Re-added a subset of the OpenSSL.rand module. This subset allows conscientious users to reseed the OpenSSL CSPRNG after fork. #708

• Corrected a use-after-free when reusing an issuer or subject from an X509 object after the underlying object has been mutated. #709

---

17.3.0 (2017-09-14)

Backward-incompatible changes:

• Dropped support for Python 3.3. #677

• Removed the deprecated OpenSSL.rand module. This is being done ahead of our normal deprecation schedule due to its lack of use and the fact that it was becoming a maintenance burden. os.urandom() should be used instead. #675

Deprecations:

• Deprecated OpenSSL.tsafe. #673

Changes:

• Fixed a memory leak in OpenSSL.crypto.CRL. #690

• Fixed a memory leak when verifying certificates with OpenSSL.crypto.X509StoreContext. #691
