Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

[Unreleased]

Added

  • Added foreach_key and foreach_value to C++ KV API, to iterate without deserializing both entries when only one is used (#2918).
  • ccf::historical::adapter_v2 now returns 404, with either TransactionPendingOrUnknown or TransactionInvalid, rather than 400 when a user performs a historical query for a transaction id that is not committed.

Changed

  • Service-endorsed node certificates are now recorded in a new public:ccf.gov.nodes.endorsed_certificates table, while the existing cert field in the public:ccf.gov.nodes.info table is now deprecated (#2844).
  • Joining nodes now present service-endorsed certificate in client TLS sessions after they have observed their own addition to the store, rather than as soon as they have joined the service. Operators should monitor the initial progress of a new node using its self-signed certificate as TLS session certificate authority (#2844).
  • Updated actions.js constitution fragment to record service-endorsed node certificate on the transition_node_to_trusted action. The constitution should be updated using the existing set_constitution proposal (#2844).
  • Improved performance for lookup of path-templated endpoints (#2918).
  • Raised the minimum supported CMake version for building CCF to 3.16 (#2946).

Dependency

  • Upgrade OpenEnclave from 0.17.1 to 0.17.2 (#2992)

[2.0.0-dev3]

Added

  • Added support for listening on multiple interfaces for incoming client RPCs, with individual session caps (#2628).

Changed

  • Upgrade OpenEnclave from 0.17.0 to 0.17.1.
  • get_state_at() now returns receipts for signature transactions (#2785), see documentation for details.
  • Upgrade playbooks and base CI image to Ubuntu 20.04. CCF is now primarily developed and tested against Ubuntu 20.04.
  • Python ccf.read_ledger module now accepts custom formatting rules for the key and value based on the key-value store table name (#2791).
  • CCF is now built with Clang 10. It is recommended that C++ applications upgrade to Clang 10 as well.
  • Internal /gov/jwt_keys/refresh endpoint has been moved to /node/jwt_keys/refresh (#2885).
  • If no --san is specified at node start-up, the node certificate Subject Alternative Name extension now defaults to the value of --public-rpc-address (#2902).

Removed

  • Remove long-deprecated --domain argument from cchost. Node certificate Subject Alternative Names should be passed in via existing --san argument (#2798).
  • Removed Forum sample app.

[2.0.0-dev2]

Changed

  • ccf.crypto.verifySignature() previously required DER-encoded ECDSA signatures and now requires IEEE P1363 encoded signatures, aligning with the behavior of the Web Crypto API (#2735).
  • Upgrade OpenEnclave from 0.16.1 to 0.17.0.

Added

  • Nodes code digests are now extracted and cached at network join time in public:ccf.gov.nodes.info, and the /node/quotes and /node/quotes/self endpoints will use this cached value whenever possible (#2651).

Removed

  • Websockets endpoints are no longer supported. Usage is insufficient to justify ongoing maintenance.

Bugfix

  • Fixed incorrect transaction view returned in x-ms-ccf-transaction-id HTTP response header after primary change (i.e. new view) (#2755).

[2.0.0-dev1]

Added

  • Added a new --client-connection-timeout-ms command line argument to cchost to specify the maximum time a node should wait before re-establishing failed client connections. This should be set to a significantly lower value than --raft-election-timeout-ms (#2618).
  • Add kv::Value and kv::Set, as a more error-proof alternative to kv::Maps which had a single key or meaningless values (#2599).
  • Added JavaScript bytecode caching to avoid repeated compilation overhead. See the documentation for more information (#2643).
  • Added new operator RPC /node/js_metrics returning the JavaScript bytecode size and whether the bytecode is used (#2643).
  • Added QuickJS version to RPC /node/version (#2643).
  • Added GET /gov/jwt_keys/all endpoint (#2519).
  • Added ccf.crypto.verifySignature() for verifying digital signatures to the JavaScript API (#2661).

Changed

  • CCF now responds to HTTP requests that could not be parsed with a 400 response including error details (#2652).

[2.0.0-dev0]

Added

  • Added get_untrusted_host_time_v1 API. This can be used to retrieve a timestamp during endpoint execution, accurate to within a few milliseconds. Note that this timestamp comes directly from the host so is not trusted, and should not be used to make sensitive decisions within a transaction (#2550).
  • Added get_quotes_for_all_trusted_nodes_v1 API. This returns the ID and quote for all nodes which are currently trusted and participating in the service, for live audit (#2511).
  • Added node start-up check for cchost and enclave compatibility, which should both always be from the same release for a single node (#2532).
  • Added a new /node/version endpoint to return the CCF version of a node (#2582).
  • Added a new /node/metrics endpoint which includes the count of active and peak concurrent sessions handled by the node (#2596).
  • Added experimental JavaScript API ccf.host.triggerSubprocess() (#2461).

Changed

  • The curve-id selected for the identity of joining nodes no longer needs to match that of the network (#2525).
  • The per-node session cap behaviour has changed. The --max-open-sessions is now a soft cap on the number of sessions. Beyond this, new sessions will receive a HTTP 503 error immediately after completing the TLS handshake. The existing hard cap (where sessions are closed immediately, before the TLS handshake) is still available, under the new argument --max-open-sessions-hard (#2583).
  • Requests with a url-encoded query string are now forwarded correctly from backups to the primary (#2587).
  • Signed requests with a url-encoded query string are now handled correctly rather than rejected (#2592).
  • Fixed consistency issue between ledger files on different nodes when snapshotting is active (#2607).

Dependency

  • Upgrade OpenEnclave from 0.15.0 to 0.16.1 (#2609)

[1.0.4]

Changed

  • CCF now responds to HTTP requests that could not be parsed with a 400 response including error details (#2652).

1.0.3

Dependency

  • Upgrade OpenEnclave from 0.15.0 to 0.16.1 (#2609)

1.0.2

Bugfix

  • Fixed consistency issue between ledger files on different nodes when snapshotting is active (#2607).

1.0.1

Bugfix

  • Requests with a url-encoded query string are now forwarded correctly from backups to the primary (#2587).
  • Signed requests with a url-encoded query string are now handled correctly rather than rejected (#2592).

1.0.0

The Confidential Consortium Framework CCF is an open-source framework for building a new category of secure, highly available, and performant applications that focus on multi-party compute and data.

This is the first long term support release for CCF. The 1.0 branch will only receive security and critical bug fixes, please see our release policy for more detail.

Active development will continue on the main branch, and regular development snapshots including new features will continue to be published.

Browse our documentation to get started with CCF, or open a discussion on GitHub if you have any questions.

1.0.0-rc3

Changed

  • Rename Store::commit_version() to the more accurate Store::compacted_version() (#1355).

1.0.0-rc2

Changed

  • Adjust release pipeline to cope with GitHub renaming debian packages containing tildes.

1.0.0-rc1

Changed

  • By default, CCF is now installed under /opt/ccf rather than /opt/ccf-x.y.z.

0.99.4

Fixed

  • Fixed use of --curve-id argument to cchost, which can now start a network with both node and service identities using curve secp256r1 (#2516).

0.99.3

Added

  • kv::MapHandle::size() can be used to get the number of entries in a given map.
  • kv::MapHandle::clear() can be used to remove all entries from a map.

0.99.2

Changed

  • The default constitution no longer contains set_service_principal or remove_service_principal since they are not used by the core framework. Instead any apps which wish to use these tables should add them to their own constitution. A sample implementation is available, and used in the CI tests.
  • Proposal status now includes a final_votes and vote_failures map, recording the outcome of each vote per member. failure_reason and failure_trace have been consolidated into a single failure object, which is also used for vote_failures.

0.99.1

Added

  • The service certificate is now returned as part of the /node/network/ endpoint response (#2442).

Changed

  • kv::Map is now an alias to kv::JsonSerialisedMap, which means all existing applications using kv::Maps will now require DECLARE_JSON... macros for custom key and value types. msgpack-c is no longer available to apps and MSGPACK_DEFINE macros should be removed. Note that this change may affect throughput of existing applications, in which case an app-defined serialiser (or kv::RawCopySerialisedMap) should be used (#2449).
  • /node/state endpoint also returns the seqno at which a node was started (i.e. seqno of the snapshot a node started from or 0 otherwise) (#2422).

Removed

  • /gov/query and /gov/read governance endpoints are removed (#2442).
  • Lua governance is removed. JS_GOVERNANCE env var is no longer necessary, and JS constitution is the only governance script which must be provided and will be used by the service. --gov-script can no longer be passed to cchost or sandbox.sh.

0.99.0

This is a bridging release to simplify the upgrade to 1.0. It includes the new JS constitution, but also supports the existing Lua governance so that users can upgrade in 2 steps - first implementing all of the changes below with their existing Lua governance, then upgrading to the JS governance. Lua governance will be removed in CCF 1.0. See temporary docs for help with transitioning from Lua to JS.

The 1.0 release will require minimal changes from this release.

Added

  • A new read_ledger.py Python command line utility was added to parse and display the content of a ledger directory.
  • ccf-app npm package to help with developing JavaScript and TypeScript CCF apps. See docs for further details (#2331).

Changed

  • Retired members are now deleted from the store, instead of being marked as Retired (#1401).
  • retire_member proposal has been renamed to remove_member and is now idempotent (i.e. succeeds even if the member was already removed) (#1401).
  • accept_recovery and open_network proposals have been merged into a single idempotent transition_service_to_open proposal (#1791).
  • The /tx endpoint now takes a single transaction_id query parameter. For example, rather than calling /node/tx?view=2&seqno=42, call /node/tx?transaction_id=2.42.
  • The /commit endpoint now returns a response with a single transaction_id rather than separate view and seqno fields.
  • UserRpcFrontend has been removed, and the return value of get_rpc_handler which apps should construct is now simply a ccf::RpcFrontend.
  • There is now a distinction between public and private headers. The public headers under include/ccf are those we expect apps to use, and others are implementation details which may change/be deprecated/be hidden in future. Most apps should now be including "ccf/app_interface.h" and "ccf/common_endpoint_registry.h".
  • Various endpoint-related types have moved under the ccf::endpoints namespace. Apps will need to rename these types where they are not using auto, for instance to ccf::endpoints::EndpointContext and ccf::endpoints::ForwardingRequired.
  • Ledger entry frames are no longer serialised with msgpack (#2343).
  • In JavaScript apps, the field caller.jwt.key_issuer in the Request object has been renamed caller.jwt.keyIssuer (#2362).
  • The proposals set_module, remove_module and set_js_app have been removed and deploy_js_app renamed to set_js_app (#2391).

0.19.3

Changed

  • The status filter passed to /node/network/nodes now takes the correct CamelCased values (#2238).

0.19.2

Added

  • New get_user_data_v1 and get_member_data_v1 C++ API calls have been added to retrieve the data associated with users/members. The user/member data is no longer included in the AuthnIdentity caller struct (#2301).
  • New get_user_cert_v1 and get_member_cert_v1 C++ API calls have been added to retrieve the PEM certificate of the users/members. The user/member certificate is no longer included in the AuthnIdentity caller struct (#2301).

Changed

  • String values in query parameters no longer need to be quoted. For instance, you should now call /network/nodes?host=127.0.0.1 rather than /network/nodes?host="127.0.0.1" (#2309).
  • Schema documentation for query parameters should now be added with add_query_parameter, rather than set_auto_schema. The In type of set_auto_schema should only be used to describe the request body (#2309).
  • json_adapter will no longer try to convert query parameters to a JSON object. The JSON passed as an argument to these handlers will now be populated only by the request body. The query string should be parsed separately, and http::parse_query(s) is added as a starting point. This means strings in query parameters no longer need to be quoted (#2309).
  • Enum values returned by built-in REST API endpoints are now PascalCase. Lua governance scripts that use enum values need to be updated as well, for example, "ACTIVE" becomes "Active" for member info. The same applies when using the /gov/query endpoint (#2152).
  • Most service tables (e.g. for nodes and signatures) are now serialised as JSON instead of msgpack. Some tables (e.g. user and member certificates) are serialised as raw bytes for performance reasons (#2301).
  • The users and members tables have been split into public:ccf.gov.users.certs/public:ccf.gov.users.info and public:ccf.gov.members.certs/public:ccf.gov.members.encryption_public_keys/public:ccf.gov.members.info respectively (#2301).
  • TypeScript interface/class names have been renamed to PascalCase (#2325).

0.19.1

Added

  • Historical point query support has been added to JavaScript endpoints (#2285).
  • RSA key generation JavaScript endpoint (#2293).

Changed

  • "readonly" has been replaced by "mode" in app.json in JavaScript apps (#2285).

0.19.0

Changed

  • x-ccf-tx-view and x-ccf-tx-seqno response headers have been removed, and replaced with x-ms-ccf-transaction-id. This includes both original fields, separated by a single .. Historical queries using ccf::historical::adapter should also pass a single combined x-ms-ccf-transaction-id header (#2257).
  • Node unique identifier is now the hex-encoded string of the SHA-256 digest of the node's DER-encoded identity public key, which is also used as the node's quote report data. The sandbox.sh script still uses incrementing IDs to keep track of nodes and for their respective directories (#2241).
  • Members and users unique identifier is now the hex-encoded string of the SHA-256 digest of their DER-encoded identity certificate (i.e. fingerprint), which has to be specified as the keyId field for signed HTTP requests (#2279).
  • The receipt interface has changed, /app/receipt?commit=23 is replaced by /app/receipt?transaction_id=2.23. Receipt fetching is now implemented as a historical query, which means that the first reponse(s) may be 202 with a Retry-After header. Receipts are now structured JSON, as opposed to a flat byte sequence, and /app/receipt/verify has been removed in favour of an offline verification sample.
  • ccfapp::get_rpc_handler() now takes a reference to a ccf::AbstractNodeContext rather than ccf::AbstractNodeState. The node state can be obtained from the context via get_node_state().

Removed

  • get_receipt_for_seqno_v1 has been removed. Handlers wanting to return receipts must now use the historical API, and can obtain a receipt via ccf::historical::StatePtr. See the historical query with receipt sample for reference.
  • caller_id endpoint has been removed. Members and users can now compute their unique identifier without interacting with CCF (#2279).
  • public:ccf.internal.members.certs_der, public:ccf.internal.users.certs_der, public:ccf.internal.members.digests and public:ccf.internal.users.digests KV tables have been removed (#2279).
  • view_change_in_progress field in network/status response has been removed (#2288).

0.18.5

Changed

  • Historical query system now supports range queries.

0.18.4

Changed

  • Governance proposals can be submitted successfully against secondaries (#2247)
  • set_ca_cert/remove_ca_cert proposals have been renamed set_ca_cert_bundle/remove_ca_cert_bundle and now also accept a bundle of certificates encoded as concatenated PEM string (#2221). The ca_cert_name parameter to the set_jwt_issuer proposal has been renamed to ca_cert_bundle_name.

Added

  • Support for multiple key wrapping algorithms for C++ and JavaScript applications (#2246)

0.18.3

Changed

  • Fixed format of notBefore and notAfter in node and network certificates (#2243).
  • CCF now depends on Open Enclave 0.14.

0.18.2

Added

  • Support for historical queries after ledger rekey and service recovery (#2200).

Changed

  • CCF now supports OpenSSL for many crypto tasks like hashing, signing, and signature verification (#2123).
  • In progress ledger files no longer cause a node to crash when they are committed (#2209).

0.18.1

Changed

  • "id" field in state endpoint response has been renamed to "node_id" (#2150).
  • user_id endpoint is renamed caller_id (#2142).
  • Nodes' quotes format updated to Open Enclave's SGX_ECDSA. Quote endorsements are also stored in CCF and can be retrieved via the quotes/self and quotes endpoints (#2161).
  • get_quote_for_this_node_v1() takes a QuoteInfo structure (containing the format, raw quote and corresponding endorsements) as out parameter instead of the distinct format and raw quote as two out paramters (#2161).
  • Several internal tables are renamed (#2166).
  • /node/network/nodes correctly returns all nodes if no filter is specified (#2188).

0.18.0

Changed

  • endpoint_metrics is renamed api/metrics and now returns an array of objects instead of nested path/method objects (#2068).
  • Governance proposal ids are now digests of the proposal and store state observed during their creation, hex-encoded as strings. This makes votes entirely specific to an instance of a proposal without having to include a nonce. (#2104, #2135).
  • quote endpoint has been renamed to quotes/self (#2149).
  • TxViews have been renamed to MapHandles, to clearly distinguish them from consensus views. Calls to tx.get_view must be replaced with tx.rw.
  • tx.rw does not support retrieving multiple views in a single call. Instead of auto [view1, view2] = tx.get_view(map1, map2);, you must write auto handle1 = tx.rw(map1); auto handle2 = tx.rw(map2);.

Added

  • Added get_version_of_previous_write(const K& k) to MapHandle. If this entry was written to by a previous transaction, this returns the version at which that transaction was applied. See docs for more details.

Removed

  • The x-ccf-global-commit header is no longer sent with responses (#1586, #2144). This was a hint of global commit progress, but was known to be imprecise and unrelated to the executed transaction. Instead, clients should call /commit to monitor commit progress or /tx for a specific transaction.

0.17.2

Fixed

  • Fixed incorrect ledger chunking on backup nodes when snapshotting is enabled (#2110).

0.17.1

Changed

  • JS endpoints now list their auth policies by name, similar to C++ endpoints. The fields require_client_identity, require_client_signature, and require_jwt_authentication are removed, and should be replaced by authn_policies. For example, the previous default "require_client_identity": true should be replaced with "authn_policies": ["user_cert"], an endpoint which would like to handle a JWT but will also accept unauthenticated requests would be "authn_policies": ["jwt", "no_auth"], and a fully unauthenticated endpoint would be "authn_policies": []. See docs for further detail.

0.17.0

Added

  • Versioned APIs for common CCF functionality: get_status_for_txid_v1, get_last_committed_txid_v1, generate_openapi_document_v1, get_receipt_for_seqno_v1, get_quote_for_this_node_v1. We will aim to support these function signatures long-term, and provide similar functionality with incremental version bumps when this is no longer possible. In particular, this enables building an app which does not expose the default endpoints but instead exposes similar functionality through its own API.

Changed

  • /network, /network_info, /node/ids, /primary_info have been restructured into /network, /network/nodes, /network/nodes/{id}, /network/nodes/self, /network/nodes/primary while also changing the response schemas (#1954).
  • /ack responds with HTTP status 204 now instead of 200 and true as body (#2088).
  • /recovery_share has new request and response schemas (#2089).

0.16.3

Changed

  • To avoid accidentally unauthenticated endpoints, a vector of authentication policies must now be specified at construction (as a new argument to make_endpoint) rather than by calling add_authentication. The value ccf::no_auth_required must be used to explicitly indicate an unauthenticated endpoint.
  • All /gov endpoints accept signature authentication alone correctly, regardless of session authentication.
  • ccf.CCFClient now allows separate session_auth and signing_auth to be passed as construction time. ccf.CCFClient.call() no longer takes a signed argument, clients with a signing_auth always sign. Similarly, the disable_session_auth constructor argument is removed, the same effect can be achieved by setting session_auth to None.

0.16.2

Changed

  • Snapshots are generated by default on the current primary node, every 10,000 committed transaction (#2029).
  • Node information exposed in the API now correctly reports the public port when it differs from the local one. (#2001)
  • All /gov endpoints accept signature authentication again. Read-only /gov endpoints had been incorrectly changed in 0.16.1 to accept session certification authentication only (#2033).

0.16.1

Added

  • C++ endpoints can be omitted from OpenAPI with set_openapi_hidden(true) (#2008).
  • JS endpoints can be omitted from OpenAPI if the "openapi_hidden" field in app.json is true (#2008).

Changed

  • Error responses of built-in endpoints are now JSON and follow the OData schema (#1919).
  • Code ids are now deleted rather than marked as RETIRED. ACTIVE is replaced with the more precise ALLOWED_TO_JOIN (#1996).
  • Authentication policies can be specified per-endpoint with add_authentication. Sample policies are implemented which check for a user TLS handshake, a member TLS handshake, a user HTTP signature, a member HTTP signature, and a valid JWT. This allows multiple policies per-endpoints, and decouples auth from frontends - apps can define member-only endpoints (#2010).
  • By default, if no authentication policy is specified, endpoints are now unauthenticated and accessible to anyone (previously the default was user TLS handshakes, where the new default is equivalent to set_require_client_identity(false)).
  • CCF now depends on Open Enclave 0.13.

Removed

  • The methods Endpoint::set_require_client_signature, Endpoint::set_require_client_identity and Endpoint::set_require_jwt_authentication are removed, and should be replaced by calls to add_authentication. For unauthenticated endpoints, either add no policies, or add the built-in empty_auth policy which accepts all requests.
    • .set_require_client_signature(true) must be replaced with .add_authentication(user_signature_auth_policy)
    • .set_require_client_identity(true) must be replaced with .add_authentication(user_cert_auth_policy)
    • .set_require_jwt_authentication(true) must be replaced with .add_authentication(jwt_auth_policy)

0.16.0

Added

  • CLI options are printed on every node launch (#1923).
  • JS logging sample app is included in CCF package (#1932).
  • C++ apps can be built using cmake's find_package(ccf REQUIRED) (see cmake sample) (#1947).

Changed

  • JWT signing keys are auto-refreshed immediately when adding a new issuer instead of waiting until the next auto-refresh event is due (#1978).
  • Snapshots are only committed when proof of snapshot evidence is committed (#1972).
  • Snapshot evidence must be validated before joining/recovering from snapshot (see doc) (#1925).

Fixed

  • Ledger index is recovered correctly even if --ledger-dir directory is empty (#1953).
  • Memory leak fixes (#1957, #1959, #1974, #1982).
  • Consensus fixes (#1977, #1981).
  • Enclave schedules messages in a fairer way (#1991).

Security

  • Hostname of TLS certificate is checked when auto-refreshing JWT signing keys (#1934).
  • Evercrypt update to 0.3.0 (#1967).

0.15.2

Added

  • JWT key auto-refresh (#1908), can be enabled by providing "auto_refresh": true and "ca_cert_name": "..." in set_jwt_issuer proposal.
    • Auto-refresh is currently only supported for providers following the OpenID Connect standard where keys are published under the /.well-known/openid-configuration path of the issuer URL.
    • ca_cert_name refers to a certificate stored with a set_ca_cert proposal and is used to validate the TLS connection to the provider endpoint.
  • JWT signature validation (#1912), can be enabled with the require_jwt_authentication endpoint property.

Changed

  • Members can no longer vote multiple times on governance proposals (#1743).
  • update_ca_cert proposal has been replaced by set_ca_cert/remove_ca_cert (#1917).

Deprecated

  • set_js_app proposal and --js-app-script argument are deprecated, and should be replaced by deploy_js_app and --js-app-bundle. See #1895 for an example of converting from the old style (JS embedded in a Lua script) to the new style (app bundle described by app.json).

Removed

  • kv::Store::create is removed.
  • luageneric is removed.

0.15.1

Added

Changed

  • /gov/ack/update_state_digest and /gov/ack now only return/accept a hex string (#1873).
  • /node/quote schema update (#1885).
  • AFT consensus improvements (#1880, #1881).

0.15.0

Added

  • Support for non-recovery members: only members with an associated public encryption key are handed recovery shares (#1866).
  • AFT consensus verify entry validity (#1864).
  • JWT validation in forum sample app (#1867).
  • JavaScript endpoints OpenAPI definition is now included in /api (#1874).

Changed

  • The keyId field in the Authorization header must now be set to the hex-encoded SHA-256 digest of the corresponding member certificate encoded in PEM format. The scurl.sh script and Python client have been modified accordingly. scurl.sh can be run with DISABLE_CLIENT_AUTH=1 (equivalent disable_client_auth=False argument to Python client) to issue signed requests without session-level client authentication (#1870).
  • Governance endpoints no longer require session-level client authentication matching a member identity, the request signature now serves as authentication. The purpose of this change is to facilitate member key storage in systems such as HSMs (#1870).
  • Support for hs2019 scheme for HTTP signatures (#1872).
    • ecdsa-sha256 scheme will be deprecated in the next release.

0.14.3

Added

  • Added support for storing JWT public signing keys (#1834).
    • The new proposals set_jwt_issuer, remove_jwt_issuer, and set_jwt_public_signing_keys can be generated with the latest version of the ccf Python package.
    • sandbox.sh has a new --jwt-issuer <json-path> argument to easily bootstrap with an initial set of signing keys using the set_jwt_issuer proposal.
    • See tests/npm-app/src/endpoints/jwt.ts for validating tokens received in the Authorization HTTP header in TypeScript.
    • Includes special support for SGX-attested signing keys as used in MAA.

Changed

  • CCF now depends on Open Enclave 0.12 (#1830).
  • /app/user_id now takes {"cert": user_cert_as_pem_string} rather than {"cert": user_cert_as_der_list_of_bytes} (#278).
  • Members' recovery shares are now encrypted using RSA-OAEP-256 (#1841). This has the following implications:
    • Network's encryption key is no longer output by the first node of a CCF service is no longer required to decrypt recovery shares.
    • The latest version of the submit_recovery_share.sh script should be used.
    • The latest version of the proposal_generator.py should be used (please upgrade the ccf Python package).
  • submit_recovery_share.sh script's --rpc-address argument has been removed. The node's address (e.g. https://127.0.0.1:8000) should be used directly as the first argument instead (#1841).
  • The constitution's pass function now takes an extra argument: proposer_id, which contains the member_id of the member who submitted the proposal. To adjust for this change, replace tables, calls, votes = ... with tables, calls, votes, proposer_id = ... at the beginning of the pass definition.
  • Bundled votes (ie. the ballot entry in POST /proposals) have been removed. Votes can either happen explicitly via POST /proposals/{proposal_id}/votes, or the constitution may choose to pass a proposal without separate votes by examining its contents and its proposer, as illustrated in the operating member constitution sample. The --vote-against flag in proposal_generator.py, has also been removed as a consequence.

Fixed

  • Added tools.cmake to the install, which ccf_app.cmake depends on and was missing from the previous release.

Deprecated

  • kv::Store::create is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. It is no longer necessary to create a kv::Map from a Store, it can be constructed locally (kv::Map<K, V> my_map("my_map_name");) or accessed purely by name (auto view = tx.get_view<K, V>("my_map_name");) (#1847).

0.14.2

Changed

  • The start_test_network.sh script has been replaced by sandbox.sh. Users wishing to override the default network config (a single node on '127.0.0.1:8000') must now explictly specify if they should be started locally (eg. -n 'local://127.4.4.5:7000') or on remote machine via password-less ssh (eg. -n 'ssh://10.0.0.1:6000').
  • node/quote endpoint now returns a single JSON object containing the node's quote (#1761).
  • Calling foreach on a TxView now iterates over the entries which previously existed, ignoring any modifications made by the functor while iterating.
  • JS: ccf.kv.<map>.get(key) returns undefined instead of throwing an exception if key does not exist.
  • JS: ccf.kv.<map>.delete(key) returns false instead of throwing an exception if key does not exist, and true instead of undefined otherwise.
  • JS: ccf.kv.<map>.set(key, val) returns the map object instead of undefined.

0.14.1

Added

  • /node/memory endpoint exposing the maximum configured heap size, peak and current used sizes.

Changed

  • Public tables in the KV must now indicate this in their name (with a public: prefix), and internal tables have been renamed. Any governance or auditing scripts which operate over internal tables must use the new names (eg - ccf.members is now public:ccf.gov.members).
  • --member-info on cchost can now take a third, optional file path to a JSON file containing additional member data (#1712).

Removed

  • /api/schema endpoints are removed, as the same information is now available in the OpenAPI document at /api.

Deprecated

  • Passing the SecurityDomain when creating a KV map is deprecated, and will be removed in a future release. This should be encoded in the table's name, with a public: prefix for public tables.

  • The naming scheme for releases has changed to be more consistent. The tags will now be in the form ccf-X.Y.Z.

0.11

Changed

  • KV reorganisation to enable app-defined serialisation (#1179, #1216, #1234)

kv.h has been split into multiple headers so apps may need to add includes for kv/store.h and kv/tx.h. The typedefs ccf::Store and ccf::Tx have been removed; apps should now use kv::Store and kv::Tx.

CCF now deals internally only with serialised data in its tables, mapping byte-vectors to byte-vectors. By default all tables will convert their keys and values to msgpack, using the existing macros for user-defined types. Apps may define custom serialisers for their own types - see kv/serialise_entry_json.h for an example.

  • Fixed issues that affected the accuracy of tx status reporting (#1157, #1150)
  • All RPCs and external APIs now use view and seqno to describe the components of a transaction ID, regardless of the specific consensus implementation selected (#1187, #1227)

  • The start_test_network.sh script now supports recovering an old network with the --recover flag (#1095) doc
  • Application CI and runtime containers are now available (#1178)
    1. ccfciteam/ccf-app-ci:0.11 is recommended to build CCF applications
    2. ccfciteam/ccf-app-run:0.11 is recommended to run CCF nodes, for example in k8s
  • Initial websockets support (#629) sample

Removed

  • ccf::Store and ccf::Tx typdefs, in favour of kv::Store and kv::Tx.

This pre-release fixes minor issues and clarifies some of cchost command line options.

Removed

Changed

The cchost, libluagenericenc.so, keygenerator and memberclient are also attached to this release to start a CCF network with lua application. Note that libluagenericenc.so should be signed before being deployed by CCF (see https://microsoft.github.io/CCF/developers/build_app.html#standalone-signing).

0.4

In this preview release, it is possible to run CCF with the PBFT consensus algorithm, albeit with significant limitations.

The evercrypt submodule has been removed, the code is instead imported, to make release tarballs easier to use.
