OpenSSL 0.9.8h (Default branch)

The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust, commercial-grade, fully featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) as well as a full-strength general-purpose cryptography library. License: OSI Approved Changes:
Two crashes discovered using the Codenomicon TLS test suite, as reported in CVE-2008-0891 and CVE-2008-1672, were fixed. The root CA certificates of commercial CAs were removed from the distribution. Functions were added to implement RFC3394 compatible AES key wrapping. Utility functions to handle ASN1 structures were added. The certificate status request TLS extension, as defined in RFC3546, was implemented. Several other bugfixes and enhancements were made.Image

SSL_set_session(3openssl)					      OpenSSL						 SSL_set_session(3openssl)

NAME
SSL_set_session - set a TLS/SSL session to be used during TLS/SSL connect SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h> int SSL_set_session(SSL *ssl, SSL_SESSION *session); DESCRIPTION
SSL_set_session() sets session to be used when the TLS/SSL connection is to be established. SSL_set_session() is only useful for TLS/SSL clients. When the session is set, the reference count of session is incremented by 1. If the session is not reused, the reference count is decremented again during SSL_connect(). Whether the session was reused can be queried with the SSL_session_reused(3) call. If there is already a session set inside ssl (because it was set with SSL_set_session() before or because the same ssl was already used for a connection), SSL_SESSION_free() will be called for that session. NOTES
SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the session cache list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX object's session cache. One SSL_SESSION object, regardless of its reference count, must therefore only be used with one SSL_CTX object (and the SSL objects created from this SSL_CTX object). RETURN VALUES
The following return values can occur: 0 The operation failed; check the error stack to find out the reason. 1 The operation succeeded. SEE ALSO
