CryptKit is a developer's toolkit implementing several of the most
modern and efficient cryptographic algorithms. The kit is primarily
written in ANSI C for speed and subsequently wrapped with SWIG for
ease of use in python.
CryptKit is small and fast, mainly because it implements excellent
algorithms: Rijndael (AES), SHA 256 bits, Elliptic Curve PKI,
Diffie-Hellman key exchange and Nyberg-Ruppel signature/verification.
These modules are combined to provide a faster, lighter and easier
to use secure socket alternative to SSL. CryptKit is not compatible
with SSL. Whereas SSL aims to support a wide variety of algorithms
that essentially perform the same task ( like DES/RC4/RC2 or MD5/SHA
), CryptKit takes the minimalist approach of implementing only one
version of each crypto primitve. Great care went into selecting the
best of what was available.

Perl module to calculate SHA1 digests
---
The Digest::SHA1 module allows you to use the NIST SHA-1 message
digest algorithm from within Perl programs. The algorithm takes
as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a
160-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input.

* Format string bug fixed in protocol.c
smtp, pop3 and nntp in client mode were affected.
(stunnel clients could be attacked by malicious servers)
* Certificate chain can be supplied with -p option or in stunnel.pem.
* Problem with -r and -l options used together fixed.
* memmove() instead of memcpy() is used to move data in buffers.
* More detailed information about negotiated ciphers is printed.
* New ./configure options: "--enable-no-rsa" and "--enable-dh".
