set string mask utf8only #234
Conversation
If subject had utf-8 characters in them, the encoding chosen by OpenSSL for defaults T61. From the OpenSSL source code: * utf8only : only use UTF8Strings (RFC2459 recommendation for 2004). That was 10 years ago, and the last remnant that had problems with it was Netscape, which is no longer a problem. A request changes from: 13:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :commonName 18:d=5 hl=2 l= 9 prim: T61STRING :Gurka ��� To: 13:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :commonName 18:d=5 hl=2 l= 12 prim: UTF8STRING :Gurka åäö OpenSSL/test/test_crypto.py Update test DER data to have utf8string. ( \x0c instead of \0x13, PrintableString )
…me time as other code.

If this has been the default for forever, why do we need to set the global state? |
It was only default in the openssl config file. Utf8 was made default in august last year inside the openssl library. But not on all branches. |

@alex it has been explained to me that the current default simply garbles strings. @reaperhulk I feel like we should add a doc about how to re-instantiate the default behavior? |
We could I suppose, but where should that live? |

Changes: 16.0.0 (2016-03-19) ------------------- This is the first release under full stewardship of PyCA. We have made *many* changes to make local development more pleasing. The test suite now passes both on Linux and OS X with OpenSSL 0.9.8, 1.0.1, and 1.0.2. It has been moved to `py.test <https://pytest.org/>`_, all CI test runs are part of `tox <https://testrun.org/tox/>`_ and the source code has been made fully `flake8 <https://flake8.readthedocs.org/>`_ compliant. We hope to have lowered the barrier for contributions significantly but are open to hear about any remaining frustrations. Backward-incompatible changes: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - Python 3.2 support has been dropped. It never had significant real world usage and has been dropped by our main dependency ``cryptography``. Affected users should upgrade to Python 3.3 or later. Deprecations: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ - The support for EGD has been removed. The only affected function ``OpenSSL.rand.egd()`` now uses ``os.urandom()`` to seed the internal PRNG instead. Please see `pyca/cryptography#1636 <https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/pull/1636>`_ for more background information on this decision. In accordance with our backward compatibility policy ``OpenSSL.rand.egd()`` will be *removed* no sooner than a year from the release of 16.0.0. Please note that you should `use urandom <http://sockpuppet.org/blog/2014/02/25/safely-generate-random-numbers/>`_ for all your secure random number needs. - Python 2.6 support has been deprecated. Our main dependency ``cryptography`` deprecated 2.6 in version 0.9 (2015-05-14) with no time table for actually dropping it. pyOpenSSL will drop Python 2.6 support once ``cryptography`` does. Changes: ^^^^^^^^ - Fixed ``OpenSSL.SSL.Context.set_session_id``, ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.renegotiate``, ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.renegotiate_pending``, and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Context.load_client_ca``. They were lacking an implementation since 0.14. `#422 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/422>`_ - Fixed segmentation fault when using keys larger than 4096-bit to sign data. `#428 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/428>`_ - Fixed ``AttributeError`` when ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_app_data()`` was called before setting any app data. `#304 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/304>`_ - Added ``OpenSSL.crypto.dump_publickey()`` to dump ``OpenSSL.crypto.PKey`` objects that represent public keys, and ``OpenSSL.crypto.load_publickey()`` to load such objects from serialized representations. `#382 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/382>`_ - Added ``OpenSSL.crypto.dump_crl()`` to dump a certificate revocation list out to a string buffer. `#368 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/368>`_ - Added ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_state_string()`` using the OpenSSL binding ``state_string_long``. `#358 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/358>`_ - Added support for the ``socket.MSG_PEEK`` flag to ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.recv()`` and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.recv_into()``. `#294 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/294>`_ - Added ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_protocol_version()`` and ``OpenSSL.SSL.Connection.get_protocol_version_name()``. `#244 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/244>`_ - Switched to ``utf8string`` mask by default. OpenSSL formerly defaulted to a ``T61String`` if there were UTF-8 characters present. This was changed to default to ``UTF8String`` in the config around 2005, but the actual code didn't change it until late last year. This will default us to the setting that actually works. To revert this you can call ``OpenSSL.crypto._lib.ASN1_STRING_set_default_mask_asc(b"default")``. `#234 <https://github.com/pyca/pyopenssl/pull/234>`_
replaces #115
