We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of OpenSSL 3.2 Alpha 1. This release incorporates a number of new features, most notably:
A complete summary of the major new features and significant changes in OpenSSL 3.2 can be found in the NEWS file; a more detailed list of changes in OpenSSL 3.2 can be found in the CHANGES file on GitHub.
This is an alpha release and is intended for development and testing purposes; it should not be used for production use. Users should expect minor bugs. Reports of interoperability issues with other QUIC implementations, or any other bug reports, are greatly appreciated and can be filed on our issue tracker. Questions about using OpenSSL 3.2 can be posted in our new GitHub Discussions area, as can feedback regarding our new QUIC functionality and APIs.
Users who test OpenSSL 3.2 at this stage are instrumental in our pursuit of a secure and high quality cryptography toolkit that meets the needs of all of our communities. As such, we would like to thank in advance everyone who takes the time to try the OpenSSL 3.2 alpha or to file bug reports.
OpenSSL 3.2 Alpha 1 can be downloaded as a source tarball here or obtained from our release tag on GitHub. Checksums and release signatures may be found on the Downloads page.
Alpha represents the first stage of the release process. Although unlikely, we reserve the right to make changes to new APIs or features in this stage. The move to Beta represents a feature and API freeze, after which only bug fixes will be merged prior to final release.
Users interested in using the new QUIC functionality are encouraged to look at some of the following resources:
doc/designs/ddd
.We plan to progress to the beta phase on or before 5 October 2023, and to issue a final release on or before 31 October 2023. Following this, we will transition to a time-based release schedule on a 6-month cadence, with regular feature releases in October and April each year.
The next feature release after OpenSSL 3.2 will be OpenSSL 3.3, which will be released no later than 30 April 2024. This release is expected to include QUIC server support. The determination of what other features will be shipped in OpenSSL 3.3 is ongoing and will be decided by our newly announced Release Steering Committee.
We would like to thank all of our users and communities for their continued use and support of OpenSSL. This release would not be possible without the innumerate bug reports, pull requests, code reviews and feedback we continue to receive from our community.
