# Changes
## Release 0.12.1 - January 25th, 2024
- RFC 5280 specifies that a serial number must not be larger than 20 octets in
length. Prior to this release an unintended interaction between rcgen and its
underlying DER encoding library could result in 21 octet serials. This has now
been fixed.
- A regression that caused build errors when the optional `pem` feature was
omitted has been fixed.
## Release 0.12.0 - December 16, 2023
- Rename `RcgenError` to `Error`. Contributed by [thomaseizinger](https://github.com/thomaseizinger).
- The public interface of `Error` has been made not expose external library types: `Error::PemError` now holds a `String` value, and the `Error` type doesn't support `From<_>` based conversion any more. This allows rcgen to update dependencies without impacting downstream users.
- Upgrade to `ring` `v0.17`. Contributed by [thomaseizinger](https://github.com/thomaseizinger).
- Make dependency on `ring` optional and allow usage of `aws-lc-rs` via a cargo feature. Ring remains the default. Contributed by [BiagioFesta](https://github.com/BiagioFesta).
- Add `Ia5String` support for `DistinguishedName`s.
- Add a `KeyIdMethod::PreSpecified` variant to set, and not generate the SKI. `CertificateParams::from_ca_cert_pem` now uses it when building params from an existing CA certificate. Contributed by [Brocar](https://github.com/Brocar).
## Release 0.11.3 - October 1, 2023
- Fix for import errors building without the optional `pem` feature.
## Release 0.11.2 - September 21, 2023
- `rcgen` has joined the umbrella of the [rustls](https://github.com/rustls) organization.
- Support for retrieving signature algorithm from `KeyPair`s. Contributed by [tindzk](https://github.com/tindzk).
- Fix for writing certificate signing requests (CSRs) with custom extensions from parameters without subject alternative names.
- Support for certificate CRL distribution points extension.
- Corrected OID for `ExtendedKeyUsagePurpose::Any`. Contributed by [jgallagher](https://github.com/jgallagher).
- Support for creating certificate revocation lists (CRLs).
