	software Classic : AmiSSL 4.9 Now Available
	posted by Futaura on 2-Apr-2021 19:26:49 (1424 reads)

The AmiSSL project is a collaborative effort to develop a shared library for Amiga-based systems (AmigaOS, MorphOS, AROS, etc.) based on the OpenSSL cryptographic library toolkit. The library together with its provided software development kit (SDK) tries to be 100% API/ABI compatible to the OpenSSL version it is based on. In addition, due to its shared library nature it can be used by several Amiga applications at the same time. Many applications already make use of AmiSSL - the shared library concept saves memory and allows developers to easily integrate a modern, stable, optimised SSL/TLS and cryptographic solution into their applications with minimum effort. With regular AmiSSL updates, applications and users additionally benefit from OpenSSL upgrades and security fixes, without authors needing to update their own code.

AmiSSL 4.9 is available for download from https://github.com/jens-maus/amissl/releases/4.9 (or via AmiUpdate) and contains the following modifications:

Updated OpenSSL backend to full compatibility to latest OpenSSL 1.1.1k (25.03.2021) version, which brings security and bug fixes.

Simplified and improved logic in amisslmaster.library for choosing which libraries to open.

Installer will now delete redundant AmiSSLv4 libraries where possible.

Added Swedish installer translation.

Updated icons with more modern GlowIcons.

Added sample openssl.cnf file and CA.pl helper script to the installation.

Added CA.pl documentation to OpenSSL.doc.

BTW, just to be clear, AmiSSL is available in both OS3 and OS4 native versions. It is a bit silly that there is not a generic "Software News" category on here - only "software Classic" and "software OS4". Some software supports multiple platforms.

Any plans to add tlsv1_1_method, tlsv1_2_method to the api?

Any particular reason why? I'm curious. These were removed around 5 years ago and are now deprecated in OpenSSL. TLS_method() should be used instead. If you need to control which versions of the protocols are used, there are functions for that - see https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man3/TLS_method.html for info.

I upgraded from AmiSSL 4.7 to AmiSSL 4.9 on my MicroA1.

@Futaura

Thanks for the info, this was not my code. In fact i changed it to TLS_method() just wondered what it isn't available. man TLS_method makes it clear.

Yep, although I didn't check if the old methods are still present (well, they are, but not sure if enabled) in the OpenSSL code, despite being deprecated. I thinks Jens removed them in AmiSSL when integrating OpenSSL 1.1.0, before AmiSSL 4.0 was released.
