Changes for version 1.984 - 2014-05-10

  • added OCSP support:
    • needs Net::SSLeay >=1.59
    • for usage see documentation of IO::Socket::SSL (examples and anything with OCSP in the name)
  • new tool util/analyze-ssl.pl which is intended to help in debugging of SSL problems and to get information about capabilities of server. Works also as en example of how to use various features (like OCSP, SNI..)
  • fix peer_certificates (returns leaf certificate only once on client side)
  • added timeout for stop_SSL (either with Timeout or with the default timeout for IO::Socket)
  • fix IO::Socket::SSL::Utils mapping between ASN1_TIME and time_t when local time is not GMT. Use Net::SSLeay::ASN1_TIME_timet if available.
  • fix t/external/usable_ca.t for system with junk in CA files
