<p>This document describes the changes made to the SSL application.</p>
+<section><title>SSL 8.1.1</title>
+
+ <section><title>Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions</title>
+ <list>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Corrected termination behavior, that caused a PEM cache
+ bug and sometimes resulted in connection failures.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-14100</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Fix bug that could hang ssl connection processes when
+ failing to require more data for very large handshake
+ packages. Add option max_handshake_size to mitigate DoS
+ attacks.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-14138</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Improved support for CRL handling that could fail to work
+ as intended when an id-ce-extKeyUsage was present in the
+ certificate. Also improvements where needed to
+ distributionpoint handling so that all revocations
+ actually are found and not deemed to be not determinable.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-14141</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ A TLS handshake might accidentally match old sslv2 format
+ and ssl application would incorrectly aborted TLS
+ handshake with ssl_v2_client_hello_no_supported. Parsing
+ was altered to avoid this problem.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-14222</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Correct default cipher list to prefer AES 128 before 3DES</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-14235</p>
+ </item>
+ </list>
+ </section>
+
+
+ <section><title>Improvements and New Features</title>
+ <list>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Move PEM cache to a dedicated process, to avoid making
+ the SSL manager process a bottleneck. This improves
+ scalability of TLS connections.</p>
