About

This is version 5.17 of the open-source based AmiSSL library for Amiga based operating systems. AmiSSL v5 is a new major release which has been updated with full compatibility with OpenSSL 3.3. This includes important security related fixes, a built-in HTTP(S) client and comes with new encryption ciphers which are required nowadays to connect to modern SSL-based services such as HTTPS and SSH.

Changes

  • Updated OpenSSL backend to full compatibility with the latest OpenSSL 3.3.2 (3.9.2024) version which includes these moderate and low severity bug fixes and mitigations:
    • Fixed possible denial of service in X.509 name checks. (CVE-2024-6119)
    • Fixed possible buffer overread in SSL_select_next_proto(). (CVE-2024-5535)
  • Updated root certificates to latest Mozilla-based bundle provided by https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html dated 2.7.2024.
  • Refactored the OpenSSL locking and mutex routines to remove the unnecessary duplication of code.

For details on all changes, see the full commit log.

Backwards Compatibility

All applications compiled to use previous versions of AmiSSL v5 will automatically use this latest version once installed. Old applications will continue to use AmiSSL v4 or older and will need to be recompiled with the updated SDK in order to start using AmiSSL v5. Besides this difference, AmiSSL v5 can be installed on top of any previous AmiSSL versions, which ensures that applications compiled for AmiSSL v1/v2/v3/v4 continue to work.

Requirements

AmigaOS 4.0+/PPC, AmigaOS 3.0+/68020+ or MorphOS

IMPORTANT NOTE

This release comes with binaries for the AmigaOS4/PPC and AmigaOS3/m68k platform only. Unfortunately, due to lack of motivated developers we couldn't provide native binaries for the MorphOS/PPC or AROS (PPC, i386, x86_64) platform. If you are, however, interested in seeing AmiSSL v5 being ported to these other Amiga-based platforms, please try to find motivated and talented developers who join our team as maintainers for these alternative platforms. In addition, if you are a MorphOS or AROS developer yourself, feel free to send pull requests to see your platform supported in one of the next releases.
