This release is based on LibreSSL 3.5.2:
https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/LibreSSL/libressl-3.5.2-relnotes.txt
As far as I can tell some interfaces were made public in the previous
release that weren't meant to be, so they're made private here and
the shared library version is bumped to 25. Inconvenient!

Subject: LibreSSL 3.5.2 Released
Date: Saturday, April 23, 2022 18:19
We have released LibreSSL 3.5.2, which will be arriving in the
LibreSSL directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon. This is the
first stable release for the 3.5.x branch, also available with OpenBSD 7.1
It includes the following changes from LibreSSL 3.4.x
* New Features
- The RFC 3779 API was ported from OpenSSL. Many bugs were fixed,
regression tests were added and the code was cleaned up.
- Certificate Transparency was ported from OpenSSL. Many internal
improvements were made, resulting in cleaner and safer code.
Regress coverage was added. libssl does not yet make use of it.
* Bug fixes
- Avoid single byte overread in asn1_parse2().
- Allow name constraints with a leading dot. From Alex Wilson.
- Relax a check in x509_constraints_dirname() to allow prefixes.
From Alex Wilson.
- Fix NULL dereferences in openssl(1) cms option parsing.
- Do not zero the computed cofactor on ec_guess_cofactor() success.
- Bound cofactor in EC_GROUP_set_generator() to reduce the number of
bogus groups that can be described with nonsensical parameters.
- Avoid various potential segfaults in EVP_PKEY_CTX_free() in low
memory conditions. Reported for HMAC by Masaru Masuda.
- Plug leak in ASN1_TIME_adj_internal().
- Avoid infinite loop for custom curves of order 1.
Issue reported by Hanno Boeck, comments by David Benjamin.
- Avoid an infinite loop on parsing DSA private keys by validating
that the provided parameters conform to FIPS 186-4.
Issue reported by Hanno Boeck, comments by David Benjamin.
- In some situations, the verifier would discard the error on an
unvalidated certificate chain. This would happen when the
verification callback was in use, instructing the verifier to
continue unconditionally. This could lead to incorrect decisions
being made in software.
- Avoid an infinite loop in SSL_shutdown()
- Fix another return 0 bug in SSL_shutdown()
- Handle zero byte reads/writes that trigger handshakes in the
TLSv1.3 stack
- A long standing memleak in libtls CRL handling was fixed
* Compatibility improvements
- Allow non-standard name constraints of the form @domain.com.
- Most structs that were previously defined in the following headers
are now opaque as they are in OpenSSL 1.1:
bio.h, bn.h, comp.h, dh.h, dsa.h, evp.h, hmac.h, ocsp.h, rsa.h,
x509.h, x509v3.h, x509_vfy.h
- Switch TLSv1.3 cipher names from AEAD- to OpenSSL's TLS_
OpenSSL added the TLSv1.3 ciphersuites with "RFC names" instead
of using something consistent with the previous naming. Various
test suites expect these names (instead of checking for the much
more sensible cipher numbers). The old names are still accepted
as aliases.
- Subject alternative names and name constraints are now validated
when they are added to certificates. Various interoperability
problems with stacks that validate certificates more strictly
than OpenSSL can be avoided this way.
- Attempt to opportunistically use the host name for SNI in s_client
* Internal improvements
- Limit OID text conversion to 64 bits per arc.
- Clean up and simplify memory BIO code.
- Reduce number of memmove() calls in memory BIOs.
- Factor out alert handling code in the legacy stack.
- Add sanity checks on p and q in old_dsa_priv_decode()

- Clean up and simplify ssl3_renegotiate{,_check}().
- Rewrite legacy TLS and DTLS unexpected handshake message handling.
- Simplify SSL_do_handshake().
- Rewrite ASCII/text to ASN.1 object conversion.
- Provide t2i_ASN1_OBJECT_internal() and use it for OBJ_txt2obj().
- Split armv7 and aarch64 code into separate locations.
- Rewrote openssl(1) ts to use the new option handling and cleaned
up the C code.
- Provide asn1_get_primitive().
- Convert {c2i,d2i}_ASN1_OBJECT() to CBS.
- Remove the minimum record length checks from dtls1_read_bytes().
- Clean up {dtls1,ssl3}_read_bytes().

name constraints code.

notBefore and notAfter times when X.509 certificates are parsed.

project

broader community. Thanks to all of the contributors who helped make this
release possible.
