**This changelog is not the libsecp256k1-zkp's changelog.** | ||
Instead, it is the changelog of the upstream library [libsecp256k1](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1). | ||
|
||
# Changelog | ||
|
||
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. | ||
|
||
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/), | ||
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html). | ||
|
||
## [Unreleased] | ||
|
||
#### Added | ||
- New module `ellswift` implements ElligatorSwift encoding for public keys and x-only Diffie-Hellman key exchange for them. | ||
ElligatorSwift permits representing secp256k1 public keys as 64-byte arrays which cannot be distinguished from uniformly random. See: | ||
- Header file `include/secp256k1_ellswift.h` which defines the new API. | ||
- Document `doc/ellswift.md` which explains the mathematical background of the scheme. | ||
- The [paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/759) on which the scheme is based. | ||
|
||
#### Changed | ||
- When consuming libsecp256k1 as a static library on Windows, the user must now define the `SECP256K1_STATIC` macro before including `secp256k1.h`. | ||
|
||
## [0.3.2] - 2023-05-13 | ||
We strongly recommend updating to 0.3.2 if you use or plan to use GCC >=13 to compile libsecp256k1. When in doubt, check the GCC version using `gcc -v`. | ||
|
||
#### Security | ||
- Module `ecdh`: Fix "constant-timeness" issue with GCC 13.1 (and potentially future versions of GCC) that could leave applications using libsecp256k1's ECDH module vulnerable to a timing side-channel attack. The fix avoids secret-dependent control flow during ECDH computations when libsecp256k1 is compiled with GCC 13.1. | ||
|
||
#### Fixed | ||
- Fixed an old bug that permitted compilers to potentially output bad assembly code on x86_64. In theory, it could lead to a crash or a read of unrelated memory, but this has never been observed on any compilers so far. | ||
|
||
#### Changed | ||
- Various improvements and changes to CMake builds. CMake builds remain experimental. | ||
- Made API versioning consistent with GNU Autotools builds. | ||
- Switched to `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` variable for controlling whether to build a static or a shared library. | ||
- Added `SECP256K1_INSTALL` variable for the controlling whether to install the build artefacts. | ||
- Renamed asm build option `arm` to `arm32`. Use `--with-asm=arm32` instead of `--with-asm=arm` (GNU Autotools), and `-DSECP256K1_ASM=arm32` instead of `-DSECP256K1_ASM=arm` (CMake). | ||
|
||
#### ABI Compatibility | ||
The ABI is compatible with versions 0.3.0 and 0.3.1. | ||
|
||
## [0.3.1] - 2023-04-10 | ||
We strongly recommend updating to 0.3.1 if you use or plan to use Clang >=14 to compile libsecp256k1, e.g., Xcode >=14 on macOS has Clang >=14. When in doubt, check the Clang version using `clang -v`. | ||
|
||
#### Security | ||
- Fix "constant-timeness" issue with Clang >=14 that could leave applications using libsecp256k1 vulnerable to a timing side-channel attack. The fix avoids secret-dependent control flow and secret-dependent memory accesses in conditional moves of memory objects when libsecp256k1 is compiled with Clang >=14. | ||
|
||
#### Added | ||
- Added tests against [Project Wycheproof's](https://github.com/google/wycheproof/) set of ECDSA test vectors (Bitcoin "low-S" variant), a fixed set of test cases designed to trigger various edge cases. | ||
|
||
#### Changed | ||
- Increased minimum required CMake version to 3.13. CMake builds remain experimental. | ||
|
||
#### ABI Compatibility | ||
The ABI is compatible with version 0.3.0. | ||
|
||
## [0.3.0] - 2023-03-08 | ||
|
||
#### Added | ||
- Added experimental support for CMake builds. Traditional GNU Autotools builds (`./configure` and `make`) remain fully supported. | ||
- Usage examples: Added a recommended method for securely clearing sensitive data, e.g., secret keys, from memory. | ||
- Tests: Added a new test binary `noverify_tests`. This binary runs the tests without some additional checks present in the ordinary `tests` binary and is thereby closer to production binaries. The `noverify_tests` binary is automatically run as part of the `make check` target. | ||
|
||
#### Fixed | ||
- Fixed declarations of API variables for MSVC (`__declspec(dllimport)`). This fixes MSVC builds of programs which link against a libsecp256k1 DLL dynamically and use API variables (and not only API functions). Unfortunately, the MSVC linker now will emit warning `LNK4217` when trying to link against libsecp256k1 statically. Pass `/ignore:4217` to the linker to suppress this warning. | ||
|
||
#### Changed | ||
- Forbade cloning or destroying `secp256k1_context_static`. Create a new context instead of cloning the static context. (If this change breaks your code, your code is probably wrong.) | ||
- Forbade randomizing (copies of) `secp256k1_context_static`. Randomizing a copy of `secp256k1_context_static` did not have any effect and did not provide defense-in-depth protection against side-channel attacks. Create a new context if you want to benefit from randomization. | ||
|
||
#### Removed | ||
- Removed the configuration header `src/libsecp256k1-config.h`. We recommend passing flags to `./configure` or `cmake` to set configuration options (see `./configure --help` or `cmake -LH`). If you cannot or do not want to use one of the supported build systems, pass configuration flags such as `-DSECP256K1_ENABLE_MODULE_SCHNORRSIG` manually to the compiler (see the file `configure.ac` for supported flags). | ||
|
||
#### ABI Compatibility | ||
Due to changes in the API regarding `secp256k1_context_static` described above, the ABI is *not* compatible with previous versions. | ||
|
||
## [0.2.0] - 2022-12-12 | ||
|
||
#### Added | ||
- Added usage examples for common use cases in a new `examples/` directory. | ||
- Added `secp256k1_selftest`, to be used in conjunction with `secp256k1_context_static`. | ||
- Added support for 128-bit wide multiplication on MSVC for x86_64 and arm64, giving roughly a 20% speedup on those platforms. | ||
|
||
#### Changed | ||
- Enabled modules `schnorrsig`, `extrakeys` and `ecdh` by default in `./configure`. | ||
- The `secp256k1_nonce_function_rfc6979` nonce function, used by default by `secp256k1_ecdsa_sign`, now reduces the message hash modulo the group order to match the specification. This only affects improper use of ECDSA signing API. | ||
|
||
#### Deprecated | ||
- Deprecated context flags `SECP256K1_CONTEXT_VERIFY` and `SECP256K1_CONTEXT_SIGN`. Use `SECP256K1_CONTEXT_NONE` instead. | ||
- Renamed `secp256k1_context_no_precomp` to `secp256k1_context_static`. | ||
- Module `schnorrsig`: renamed `secp256k1_schnorrsig_sign` to `secp256k1_schnorrsig_sign32`. | ||
|
||
#### ABI Compatibility | ||
Since this is the first release, we do not compare application binary interfaces. | ||
However, there are earlier unreleased versions of libsecp256k1 that are *not* ABI compatible with this version. | ||
|
||
## [0.1.0] - 2013-03-05 to 2021-12-25 | ||
|
||
This version was in fact never released. | ||
The number was given by the build system since the introduction of autotools in Jan 2014 (ea0fe5a5bf0c04f9cc955b2966b614f5f378c6f6). | ||
Therefore, this version number does not uniquely identify a set of source files. | ||
