Hello, 
 I've just released gnutls 3.5.14. This is a bug fix release on the
3.5.x branch.

* Version 3.5.14 (released 2017-07-04)

** libgnutls: Handle specially HSMs which request explicit authentication.
   There are HSMs which return CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN on the first private key
   operation. Detect that state and try to login.

** libgnutls: the GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_LOGIN will force a login on HSMs.
   That is, even in tokens which do not have a CKF_LOGIN_REQUIRED flag
   a login will be forced. This improves operation on certain Safenet HSMs.

** libgnutls: do not set leading zeros when copying integers on HSMs.
   PKCS#11 defines integers as unsigned having most significant byte
   first, e.g., 32768 = 0x80 0x00. This is interpreted literraly by
   some HSMs which do not accept an integer with a leading zero. This
   improves operation with certain Atos HSMs.

** libgnutls: Fixed issue discovering certain OCSP signers, and improved the
   discovery of OCSP signer in the case where the Subject Public Key
   identifier field matches. Resolves gitlab issue #223.

** gnutls-cli: ensure OCSP responses are saved with --save-ocsp even if
   certificate verification fails.

** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
