Previously pseudoRandomBytes worked similarly to randomBytes but in the
event of insufficient entropy would silently return non-secure values.
As of f68a116, the entropy pool blocks if there is insufficient entropy
instead of giving an error so there is now no longer a case where
pseudoRandomBytes would act differently than randomBytes.
Docs are updated to remove pseudoRandomBytes and to clarify that
randomBytes now does block instead of erring when entropy is low.

Sets the authenticated encryption specific methods ([set|get]AuthTag and setAAD)

Move `createCredentials` to `tls` module and rename it to
`createSecureContext`. Make it use default values from `tls` module:
`DEFAULT_CIPHERS` and `DEFAULT_ECDH_CURVE`.
fix#7249
NodeBIO::Gets was reading off the end of a buffer if it
didn't find a "\n" before the EOF. This behavior
was causing X509 certificates passed to `https.Agent`
via the "ca" option to be silently discarded. It also
was causing improper parsing of certs and keys
passed to https.Agent, but those problems were worked
around in cdde9a3.
Backed out workaround in `lib/crypto.js` from ccde9a3,
which now isn't needed. But keep the test introduced
in that commit, which tests properly for this
bug.
This bug was first introduced in a58f93f
Gist containing test code, bisection log, and notes:
https://gist.github.com/maxtaco/9211605
Make the HMAC digest method configurable. Update crypto.pbkdf2() and
crypto.pbkdf2Sync() to take an extra, optional digest argument.
Before this commit, SHA-1 (admittedly the most common method) was used
exclusively.
Fixes#6553.
After one of OpenSSL updates we have stopped accepting PEM private keys
and certificates that doesn't end with a newline (`\n`) character.
Handle this regression in `crypto.js` to make less trouble to our users.
fix#6892
This adds two new member functions getAuthTag and setAuthTag that
are useful for AES-GCM encryption modes. Use getAuthTag after
Cipheriv.final, transmit the tag along with the data and use
Decipheriv.setAuthTag to have the encrypted data verified.
Previous behaviour was to drop to an openssl prompt
("Enter PEM pass phrase:") when supplying a private key with a
passphrase. This change adds a fourth, optional, paramter that
will be used as the passphrase.
To include this parameter in a backwards compatible way it was
necessary to expose the previously undocumented (and unexposed)
feature of being able to explitly setting the output encoding.
Normalize the encoding in getEncoding() before using it. Fixes a
"AssertionError: Cannot change encoding" exception when the caller
mixes "utf8" and "utf-8".
Fixes#5655.
It needs to apply the Transform class when the _readableState,
_writableState, or _transformState properties are accessed,
otherwise things like setEncoding and on('data') don't work
properly.
Also, the methods wrappers are no longer needed, since they're only
problematic because they access the undefined properties.
Commit f53441a added crypto.getCiphers() as a function that returns the
names of SSL ciphers.
Commit 14a6c4e then added crypto.getHashes(), which returns the names of
digest algorithms, but that creates a subtle inconsistency: the return
values of crypto.getHashes() are valid arguments to crypto.createHash()
but that is not true for crypto.getCiphers() - the returned values are
only valid for SSL/TLS functions.
Rectify that by adding tls.getCiphers() and making crypto.getCiphers()
return proper cipher names.
Commit 9901b69c introduces a small regression where the trailing base64
padding is no longer written out when Cipher#final is called. Rectify
that.
Fixes#4837.
