Version 2.0.5
Bug fixes
- Reading a PEM/DER-encoded private key or certificate from an IO object did not work properly on mswin platforms. [ruby/openssl#128]
- Broken length check in the PEM passphrase callback is fixed.
- It failed to compile when OpenSSL is configured without TLS 1.0 support.
Version 2.0.4
Bug fixes
- It now compiles with LibreSSL without renaming on Windows (mswin).
- A workaround for the error queue leak of X509_load_cert_crl_file() that causes random errors is added. [Bug #11033]

- OpenSSL::ASN1 now parses BER encoding of GeneralizedTime without seconds. [ruby/openssl#88]
Version 2.0.0
This is the first release of openssl gem, formerly a standard library of Ruby, ext/openssl. This is the successor of the version included in Ruby 2.3.
Compatibility notes
- Support for OpenSSL version 0.9.6 and 0.9.7 is completely removed. openssl gem still works with OpenSSL 0.9.8, but users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to at least 1.0.1, as OpenSSL < 1.0.1 will not receive any security fixes from the OpenSSL development team.
Supported platforms
- OpenSSL 1.0.0, 1.0.1, 1.0.2, 1.1.0
- OpenSSL < 0.9.8 is no longer supported.
- LibreSSL 2.3, 2.4, 2.5
- Ruby 2.3, 2.4
Notable changes
-
Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.0. [Feature #12324]
-
Add support for LibreSSL
-
OpenSSL::Cipher
-
OpenSSL::Cipher#key= and #iv= reject too long inputs. They used to truncate silently. [Bug #12561]
-
OpenSSL::Cipher#iv_len= is added. It allows changing IV (nonce) length if using AEAD ciphers. [Bug #8667], [Bug #10420], [GH ruby/ruby#569], [GH ruby/openssl#58]
-
OpenSSL::Cipher#auth_tag_len= is added. This sets the authentication tag length to be generated by an AEAD cipher.
-
-
OpenSSL::OCSP
-
Accessor methods are added to OpenSSL::OCSP::CertificateId. [Feature #7181]
-
OpenSSL::OCSP::Request and BasicResponse can be signed with non-SHA-1 hash algorithm. [Feature #11552]
-
OpenSSL::OCSP::CertificateId and BasicResponse can be encoded into DER.
-
A new class OpenSSL::OCSP::SingleResponse is added for convenience.
-
OpenSSL::OCSP::BasicResponse#add_status accepts absolute times. They used to accept only relative seconds from the current time.
-
-
OpenSSL::PKey
-
OpenSSL::PKey::EC follows the general PKey interface. [Bug #6567]
-
OpenSSL::PKey.read raises OpenSSL::PKey::PKeyError instead of ArgumentError for consistency with OpenSSL::PKey::{DH,DSA,RSA,EC}#new. [Bug #11774], [GH ruby/openssl#55]
-
OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Group retrieved by OpenSSL::PKey::EC#group is no longer linked with the EC key. Modifications to the EC::Group have no effect on the key. [GH ruby/openssl#71]
-
OpenSSL::PKey::EC::Point#to_bn allows specifying the point conversion form by the optional argument.
-
-
OpenSSL::SSL
-
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLSocket#tmp_key is added. A client can call it after the connection is established to retrieve the ephemeral key. [GH ruby/ruby#1318]
-
The automatic ephemeral ECDH curve selection is enabled by default when built with OpenSSL >= 1.0.2 or LibreSSL.
-
OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#security_level= is added. You can set the "security level" of the SSL context. This is effective only when built with OpenSSL 1.1.0.
-
A new option 'verify_hostname' is added to OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext. When it is enabled, and the SNI hostname is also set, the hostname verification on the server certificate is automatically performed. It is now enabled by OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#set_params. [GH ruby/openssl#60]
-
Removals
-
OpenSSL::Engine
- OpenSSL::Engine.cleanup does nothing when built with OpenSSL 1.1.0.
-
OpenSSL::SSL
-
OpenSSL::PKey::DH::DEFAULT_512 is removed. Hence servers no longer use 512-bit DH group by default. It is considered too weak nowadays. [Bug #11968], [GH ruby/ruby#1196]
-
RC4 cipher suites are removed from OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext::DEFAULT_PARAMS. RC4 is now considered to be weak. [GH ruby/openssl#50]
-
Deprecations
-
OpenSSL::PKey
- OpenSSL::PKey::RSA#n=, #e=, #d=, #p=, #q=, #dmp1=, #dmq1=, #iqmp=, OpenSSL::PKey::DSA#p=, #q=, #g=, #priv_key=, #pub_key=, OpenSSL::PKey::DH#p=, #g=, #priv_key= and #pub_key= are deprecated. They are disabled when built with OpenSSL 1.1.0, due to its API change. Instead, OpenSSL::PKey::RSA#set_key, #set_factors, #set_crt_params, OpenSSL::PKey::DSA#set_pqg, #set_key, OpenSSL::PKey::DH#set_pqg and #set_key are added.
-
OpenSSL::Random
- OpenSSL::Random.pseudo_bytes is deprecated, and not defined when built with OpenSSL 1.1.0. Use OpenSSL::Random.random_bytes instead.
-
OpenSSL::SSL
- OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#tmp_ecdh_callback is deprecated, as the underlying API SSL_CTX_set_tmp_ecdh_callback() is removed in OpenSSL 1.1.0. It was first added in Ruby 2.3.0. To specify the curve to be used in ephemeral ECDH, use OpenSSL::SSL::SSLContext#ecdh_curves=. The automatic curve selection is also now enabled by default when built with a capable OpenSSL.
