OpenPAM Ourouparia						2014-09-12

 - ENHANCE: When executing a chain, require at least one service
   function to succeed.  This mitigates fail-open scenarios caused by
   misconfigurations or missing modules.

 - ENHANCE: Make sure to overwrite buffers which may have contained an
   authentication token when they're no longer needed.

 - BUGFIX: Under certain circumstances, specifying a non-existent
   module (or misspelling the name of a module) in a policy could
   result in a fail-open scenario.  (CVE-2014-3879)

 - FEATURE: Add a search path for modules.  This was implemented in
   Nummularia but inadvertently left out of the release notes.

 - BUGFIX: The is_upper() predicate only accepted the letter A as an
   upper-case character instead of the entire A-Z range.  As a result,
   service and module names containing upper-case letters other than A
   would be rejected.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Nummularia						2013-09-07

 - ENHANCE: Rewrite the dynamic loader to improve readability and
   reliability.  Modules can now be listed without the ".so" suffix in
   the policy file; OpenPAM will automatically add it, just like it
   will automatically add the version number if required.

 - ENHANCE: Allow openpam_straddch(3) to be called without a character
   so it can be used to preallocate a string.

 - ENHANCE: Improve portability by adding simple asprintf(3) and
   vasprintf(3) implementations for platforms that don't have them.

 - ENHANCE: Move the libpam sources into a separate subdirectory.

 - ENHANCE: Substantial documentation improvements.

 - BUGFIX: When openpam_readword(3) encountered an opening quote, it
   would set the first byte in the buffer to '\0', discarding all
   existing text and, unless the buffer was empty to begin with, all
   subsequent text as well.  This went unnoticed because none of the
   unit tests for quoted strings had any text preceding the opening
   quote.

 - BUGFIX: make --with-modules-dir work the way it was meant to work
   (but never did).
============================================================================
OpenPAM Micrampelis						2012-05-26

 - FEATURE: Add an openpam_readword(3) function which reads the next
   word from an input stream, applying shell quoting and escaping
   rules.  Add numerous unit tests for openpam_readword(3).

 - FEATURE: Add an openpam_readlinev(3) function which uses the
   openpam_readword(3) function to read words from an input stream one
   at a time until it reaches an unquoted, unescaped newline, and
   returns an array of those words.  Add several unit tests for
   openpam_readlinev(3).

 - FEATURE: Add a PAM_HOST item which pam_start(3) initializes to the
   machine's hostname.  This was implemented in Lycopsida but
   inadvertantly left out of the release notes.

 - FEATURE: In pam_get_authtok(3), if neither the application nor the
   module have specified a prompt and PAM_HOST and PAM_RHOST are both
   defined but not equal, use a different default prompt that includes
   PAM_USER and PAM_HOST.

 - ENHANCE: Rewrite the policy parser to used openpam_readlinev(),
   which greatly simplifies the code.

 - ENHANCE: The previous implementation of the policy parser relied on
   the openpam_readline(3) function, which (by design) munges
   whitespace and understands neither quotes nor backslash escapes.
   As a result of the aforementioned rewrite, whitespace, quotes and
   backslash escapes in policy files are now handled in a consistent
   and predictable manner.

 - ENHANCE: On platforms that have it, use fdlopen(3) to load modules.
   This closes the race between the ownership / permission check and
   the dlopen(3) call.

 - ENHANCE: Reduce the amount of pointless error messages generated
   while searching for a module.

 - ENHANCE: Numerous documentation improvements, both in content and
   formatting.

 - BUGFIX: A patch incorporated in Lycopsida inadvertantly changed
   OpenPAM's behavior when several policies exist for the same
   service, from ignoring all but the first to concatenating them all.
   Revert to the original behavior.

 - BUGFIX: Plug a memory leak in the policy parser.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Lycopsida						2011-12-18

 - ENHANCE: removed static build autodetection, which didn't work
   anyway.  Use an explicit, user-specified preprocessor variable
   instead.

 - ENHANCE: cleaned up the documentation a bit.

 - ENHANCE: added openpam_subst(3), allowing certain PAM items to be
   embedded in strings such as prompts.  Apply it to the prompts used
   by pam_get_user(3) and pam_get_authtok(3).

 - ENHANCE: added support for the user_prompt, authtok_prompt and
   oldauthtok_prompt module options, which override the prompts passed
   by the module to pam_set_user(3) and pam_get_authtok(3).

 - ENHANCE: rewrote the policy parser to support quoted option values.

 - ENHANCE: added pamtest(1), a tool for testing modules and policies.

 - ENHANCE: added code to check the ownership and permissions of a
   module before loading it.

 - ENHANCE: added / improved input validation in many cases, including
   the policy file and some function arguments.  (CVE-2011-4122)
============================================================================
OpenPAM Hydrangea						2007-12-21

 - ENHANCE: when compiling with GCC, mark up API functions with GCC
   attributes where appropriate.

 - BUGFIX: fixed numerous warnings uncovered by GCC 4.

 - ENHANCE: building the documentation is now optional.

 - ENHANCE: corrected a number of mistakes and style issues in the
   build system.

 - ENHANCE: API function arguments are now const where appropriate, to
   match corresponding changes in the Solaris PAM and Linux-PAM APIs.

 - ENHANCE: corrected a number of C namespace violations.

 - ENHANCE: the module cache has been removed, allowing long-lived
   applications to pick up module changes.  This also allows multiple
   threads to use PAM simultaneously (as long as they use separate PAM
   contexts), since the module cache was the only part of OpenPAM that
   was not thread-safe.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Figwort							2005-06-16

 - BUGFIX: Correct several small signedness and initialization bugs
   discovered during review by the NetBSD team.

 - BUGFIX: Modify gendoc.pl to sort cross-references in dictionary
   order within each section.

 - ENHANCE: if a policy specifies a relative module path, prepend the
   module directory so we never call dlopen(3) with a relative path.

 - ENHANCE: add a pam.conf(5) manual page.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Feterita						2005-02-01

 - BUGFIX: Correct numerous markup errors, invalid cross-references,
   and other issues in the manual pages, with kind assistance from
   Ruslan Ermilov <ru@freebsd.org>.

 - BUGFIX: Avoid multiple evaluation of macro arguments in ENTERX()
   and RETURNX() macros.

 - BUGFIX: Remove an unnecessary and non-portable pointer cast in
   pam_get_data(3).

 - BUGFIX: Fix identical typos in PAM_ACCT_EXPIRED case in
   pam_strerror(3) and gendoc.pl.

 - ENHANCE: Minor overhaul of the autoconf / build system.

 - ENHANCE: Add openpam_free_envlist(3).
============================================================================
OpenPAM Eelgrass						2004-02-10

 - BUGFIX: Correct array handling bugs in conversation code.

 - BUGFIX: In openpam_ttyconv(3), don't strip trailing linear
   whitespace from the user's response.

 - BUGFIX: Many constness issues addressed.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Dogwood							2003-07-15

 - ENHANCE: Use the GNU autotools.

 - ENHANCE: Constify the msg field in struct pam_message.

 - BUGFIX: Remove left-over debugging output

 - BUGFIX: Avoid side effects in arguments to the FREE() macro

 - ENHANCE: Make openpam_ttyconv(3) use read(2) rather than fgets(3).

 - BUGFIX: Staticize some variables which shouldn't be global.

 - BUGFIX: Correcly anticipate a NULL user in pam_get_user(3).

 - ENHANCE: Various minor documentation improvements.

Thanks to Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org> for considerable
assistance with this release.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Digitalis						2003-06-01

 - ENHANCE: Completely rewrite the configuration parser and add
   support for the "include" control flag.

 - ENHANCE: Improve portability to NetBSD, OpenBSD and Linux.

 - ENHANCE: Lots of additional paranoia.

 - BUGFIX: The sample su(1) application dropped privileges before
   forking instead of after.

 - ENHANCE: Document openpam_log(3).

 - ENHANCE: Other minor documentation fixes.

Thanks to Dmitry V. Levin <ldv@altlinux.org> for considerable
assistance with this release.
============================================================================

 - BUGFIX: Initialize some potentially uninitialized variables.

 - BUGFIX: Silence some warnings emitted by gcc -std=iso9899:1999.

 - BUGFIX: In pam_getenv(), return a pointer to the stored variable
   instead of a freshly allocated copy.

 - ENHANCE: Detect recursion in openpam_borrow_cred()

 - ENHANCE: Make borrowing one's own credentials a no-op.

 - ENHANCE: Further improve debugging support.

 - ENHANCE: Clean up some variable names.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Daffodil						2003-01-06

 - ENHANCE: Document dependency on <sys/types.h> (for size_t)

 - ENHANCE: Improve recursion detection in openpam_dispatch().

 - ENHANCE: Add debugging messages at entry and exit points of most
   functions.

 - ENHANCE: Fix some minor style issues.

 - BUGFIX: Add default cases to the switches in openpam_log.c.

 - ENHANCE: Add /usr/local/etc/pam.conf to policy search path.

 - BUGFIX: In openpam_ttyconv(3), print the prompt to stdout rather
   than stderr.
============================================================================

 - ENHANCE: Add the "binding" control flag (from Solaris 9).

 - ENHANCE: Define struct pam_repository and PAM_REPOSITORY (from
   Solaris 9).

 - ENHANCE: Flesh out the pam(3) man page.

   system.

 - ENHANCE: Improved sample application.

 - ENHANCE: Added sample pam_unix module.

 - BUGFIX: Various documentation nits.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Cinquefoil						2002-05-24

 - BUGFIX: Various warnings uncovered by gcc 3.1.

 - ENHANCE: Add a null conversation function, openpam_nullconv(3).

 - BUGFIX: Initialize the "other" chain to all zeroes.

 - ENHANCE: Document openpam_ttyconv(3).
============================================================================
OpenPAM Cinnamon						2002-05-02

 - ENHANCE: Add a null conversation function, openpam_nullconv().

 - BUGFIX: Various markup bugs in the documentation.

 - BUGFIX: Document <security/openpam.h>.

 - BUGFIX: Duplicate expansion of openpam_log() macro arguments.

 - ENHANCE: Restructure the policy-loading code and align our use of

 - ENHANCE: In openpam_ttyconv(), emit a newline after error and info
   messages unless the message contains one already.

============================================================================
OpenPAM Cinchona						2002-04-08

 - ENHANCE: Improved documentation for several API functions.

 - BUGFIX: Fix bug in pam_set_data() that would result in corruption
   of the module data list.

 - BUGFIX: Allocate the correct amount of memory for the environment
   list in pam_putenv().

 - ENHANCE: Change pam_get_authtok()'s prototype so the caller can
   specify what token it wants.  Also introduce PAM_OLDAUTHTOK_PROMPT.

 - BUGFIX: Plug memory leak in pam_get_user() / pam_get_authtok(), and
   reduce differences between these very similar functions.

 - ENHANCE: Check flags carefully in pam_authenticate() and
   pam_chauthtok().

 - BUGFIX: Fix bugs in portability code; libpam now builds on NetBSD.

 - ENHANCE: In pam_get_authtok(), if PAM_OLDAUTHTOK is set, we're
   asked for PAM_AUTHTOK, and we have to prompt the user, prompt her
   twice and compare the responses.

 - ENHANCE: Add openpam_{borrow,restore}_cred(), for temporarily
   switching to user credentials.

 - ENHANCE: Add openpam_free_data(), a generic cleanup function for
   pam_set_data() consumers.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Centaury						2002-03-14

 - BUGFIX: Add missing #include <string.h> to openpam_log.c.

 - BUGFIX: s/PAM_REINITIALISE_CRED/PAM_REINITIALIZE_CRED/.  XSSO uses
   the former, but Solaris and Linux-PAM use the latter.

 - BUGFIX: The dynamic loader and the module cache contained a number
   of bugs which would cause a segmentation fault if pam_start(3) was
   called again after pam_end(3), as happens in login(1), xdm(1) etc.
   after a failed login.

 - BUGFIX: Refer to a module by the name used in the policy file, even
   if the module that was actually loaded was versioned.

 - ENHANCE: Suppress debugging logs, unless compiled with -DDEBUG.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Celandine						2002-03-05

 - BUGFIX: PAM_TRY_AGAIN is a valid return value for pam_chauthtok().

 - BUGFIX: Run passwd chain twice, first with the PAM_PRELIM_CHECK
   flag set, then with the PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK flag set.

 - BUGFIX: Failure of a "sufficient" module should not terminate the
   passwd chain if the PAM_PRELIM_CHECK flag is set.

 - BUGFIX: Clear PAM_AUTHTOK after running the service modules.

 - ENHANCE: Prevent applications from specifying the PAM_PRELIM_CHECK
   or PAM_UPDATE_AUTHTOK flags themselves.

 - BUGFIX: openpam_set_option() did not support changing the value of
   an existing option.

 - ENHANCE: Add support for module versioning.  OpenPAM will prefer a
   module with the same version number as the library itself to one
   with no version number at all.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Cantaloupe						2002-02-22

 - BUGFIX: The proper use of PAM_SYMBOL_ERR is to indicate an invalid
   argument to pam_[gs]et_item(3), not to indicate dlsym(3) failures.

 - ENHANCE: Add in-line documentation in most source files, and a Perl
   script that generates mdoc code from that.

 - BUGFIX: The environment list was not properly NULL-terminated.

 - ENHANCE: Allow the PAM_AUTHTOK_PROMPT item to override the prompt
   specified by the module.

 - BUGFIX: PAM_NUM_ITEMS was set too low.  It has been moved to
   pam_constants.h to avoid it going stale again.

 - ENHANCE: Move all code related to static modules into a separate
   file.

 - ENHANCE: openpam_ttyconv() now masks most signals while prompting the
   user, and supports setting a timeout (which defaults to off).

 - BUGFIX: Some manual pages referenced XSSO even though they
   documented OpenPAM-specific functions.

 - ENHANCE: Added openpam_get_option() and openpam_set_option().

 - ENHANCE: openpam_get_authtok() now respects the echo_pass,
   try_first_pass, and use_first_pass options.
============================================================================
OpenPAM Caliopsis						2002-02-13

Fixed a number of bugs in the previous release, including:
  - a number of bugs in and related to pam_[gs]et_item(3)
  - off-by-one bug in pam_start.c would trim last character off certain
    configuration lines
  - incorrect ordering of an array in openpam_load.c would cause service
    module functions to get mixed up
  - missing 'continue' in openpam_dispatch.c caused successes to be
    counted as failures
============================================================================
OpenPAM Calamite						2002-02-09

First (beta) release.
