Hello,
New bug-fix release is available for download. It includes only one correction:
* properly use EVP digest work-around for ECDSA keys
On some Linux releases "OpenSSL's curve secp521r1 is NOT functional". For instance RHEL 6.
Remark:
By design PKIX-SSH does not use hard-coded restrictions for supported releases of cryptographic library. Uses of library version number is source code is minimal in FAVOUR of use result from functional test done at configuration time.
As consequence it still builds with OpenSSL 0.9.7 and pass regression tests.
Unfortunately "modernised signature operations" in 14.0* development cycle adds regression that is corrected in 14.0.2.
Regards,
Roumen Petrov
