+ The server now verifies the client certificate verify
+ message correctly, instead of causing a case-clause.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8721</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ The client hello message now always include ALL available
+ cipher suites (or those specified by the ciphers option).
+ Previous implementation would filter them based on the
+ client certificate key usage extension (such filtering
+ only makes sense for the server certificate).</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8772</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Fixed handling of the option {mode, list} that was broken
+ for some packet types for instance line.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8785</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Empty packets were not delivered to the client.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8790</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p> Building in a source tree without prebuilt platform
+ independent build results failed on the SSL examples
+ when: </p> <list><item> cross building. This has been
+ solved by not building the SSL examples during a cross
+ build. </item><item> building on Windows. </item></list>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8791</p>
+ </item>

+ Fixed a handshake error which occurred on some ssl
+ implementations.</p>

+ <p>
+ Revise the public_key API - Cleaned up and documented the
+ public_key API to make it useful for general use, also
+ changed ssl to use the new API.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8722</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Added support for inputing certificates and keys directly
+ in DER format these options will override the pem-file
+ options if specified.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8723</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ To gain interoperability ssl will not check for padding
+ errors when using TLS 1.0. It is first in TLS 1.1 that
+ checking the padding is an requirement.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8740</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Changed the semantics of the verify_fun option in the
+ ssl-application so that it takes care of both application
+ handling of path validation errors and verification of
+ application specific extensions. This means that it is
+ now possible for the server application in verify_peer
+ mode to handle path validation errors. This change moved
+ some functionality earlier in ssl to the public_key
+ application.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-8770</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Added the functionality so that the verification fun will
+ be called when a certificate is considered valid by the
+ path validation to allow access to each certificate in
+ the path to the user application. Also try to verify
+ subject-AltName, if unable to verify it let the
+ application verify it.</p>
