Update Information:

LuaSec 0.5
==========

LuaSec depends on OpenSSL, and integrates with LuaSocket to make it easy to add secure connections to any Lua applications or scripts.

This version includes:

  * A new certificate (X509) API, which supports:
    - Reading the subject (identity) and issuer of the certificate.
    - Reading various X509 extensions, including email and dnsName.
    - Converting certificates to and from the standard ASCII PEM format.
    - Generating the fingerprint/digest of a certificate (using SHA1, SHA256 or SHA512).
    - Reading the certificate's expiration, serial number, and other info.
  * The ability to get more detailed information from OpenSSL about why a certificate failed verification, for each certificate in the chain.
  * Flags to force acceptance of invalid certificates, e.g. to allow the use of self-signed certificates in a Trust On First Use model.
  * Flags to control checking CRLs for certificate revocation status.
  * Support for ECDH cipher suites.
  * An API to get the TLS 'finished' messages used for SASL channel binding (e.g. the SCRAM PLUS mechanisms).
