[gnutls-help] gnutls 3.1.23

[Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos]

Hello,
 I've just released gnutls 3.1.23. This is a bug fix release on the old
stable branch.


* Version 3.1.23 (released 2014-04-07)

** libgnutls: Ciphersuites that use the SHA256 or SHA384 MACs are
only available in TLS 1.0 as SSL 3.0 doesn't specify parameters for
these algorithms.

** libgnutls: gnutls_record_send is now safe to be called under DTLS when
in corked mode.

** libgnutls: Changed the behaviour in wildcard acceptance in certificates.
Wildcards are only accepted when there are more than two domain components
after the wildcard. This drops support for the permissive RFC2818 wildcards
and adds more conservative support based on the suggestions in RFC6125. Suggested 
by Jeffrey Walton.

** certtool: When no password is provided to export a PKCS #8 keys, do
not encrypt by default. This reverts to the certtool behavior of gnutls
3.0. The previous behavior of encrypting using an empty password can be
replicating using the new parameter --empty-password.

** p11tool: Avoid dual initialization of the PKCS #11 subsystem when
the --provider option is given.

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