May 30, 2023

PyCA cryptography 41.0.0 has been released to PyPI. cryptography includes both high level recipes and low level interfaces to common cryptographic algorithms such as symmetric ciphers, asymmetric algorithms, message digests, X509, key derivation functions, and much more. We support Python 3.7+, and PyPy3 7.3.10+. Changelog (https://cryptography.io/en/latest/changelog/#v41-0-0): * BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: Support for OpenSSL less than 1.1.1d has been removed. Users on older version of OpenSSL will need to upgrade. * BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: Support for Python 3.6 has been removed. * BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE: Dropped support for LibreSSL < 3.6. * Updated Windows, macOS, and Linux wheels to be compiled with OpenSSL 3.1.1. * Updated the minimum supported Rust version (MSRV) to 1.56.0, from 1.48.0. * Added support for the OCSPAcceptableResponses OCSP extension. * Added support for the MSCertificateTemplate proprietary Microsoft certificate extension. * Implemented support for equality checks on all asymmetric public key types. * Added support for aes256-gcm(a)openssh.com encrypted keys in load_ssh_private_key(). * Added support for obtaining X.509 certificate signature algorithm parameters (including PSS) via signature_algorithm_parameters(). * Support signing PSS X.509 certificates via the new keyword-only argument rsa_padding on sign(). * Added support for ChaCha20Poly1305 on BoringSSL. -Paul Kehrer (reaperhulk)

openssl library
by Laurent Philippart (Nokia) May 25, 2023

Hi, Could you please clarify if cryptography is statically linked to openssl / libcrypto library or use the system's shared library ? I am interested in tracing calls to functions like "EVP_EncryptInit_ex" and "EVP_CipherInit_ex" for malware detection. However it seems that cryptography is not making use of the "libcrypto.so.1.1" shared library. Best regards Laurent
