gnupg/TODO
Werner Koch 3ff9a743bf * configure.ac: Do not build gpg by default.
* gpgsm.c: New options --{enable,disable}-trusted-cert-crl-check.
* certchain.c (gpgsm_validate_chain): Make use of it.

* certchain.c (gpgsm_validate_chain): Check revocations even for
expired certificates.  This is required because on signature
verification an expired key is fine whereas a revoked one is not.

* gpgconf-comp.c: Add gpgsm option disable-trusted-cert-crl-check.

* src/base64
** Make parsing more robust
Currently we don't cope with overlong lines in the best way.
* sm/call-agent.c
** The protocol uses an incomplete S-expression
We should always use valid S-Exp and not just parts.
** Some code should go into import.c
** When we allow concurrent service request in gpgsm, we
might want to have an agent context for each service request
(i.e. Assuan context).
* sm/certreqgen.c
** Improve error reporting
** Do some basic checks on the supplied DNs
* sm/certchain.c
** When a certificate chain was sucessfully verified, make ephemeral certs used in this chain permanent.
* sm/decrypt.c
** replace leading zero in integer hack by a cleaner solution
* sm/gpgsm.c
** Support --output for all commands
** mark all unimplemented commands and options.
** Print a hint when MD2 is the cause for a problem.
** Implement --default-key
** Using --export-secret-key-p12 with a non-pth agent
This leads to a lockup because gpgsm is still accessing the agent
while gpg-protect-tool wants to pop up the pinentry. Solution is
to release the connection. This is not trivial, thus we are going
to do that while changing gpgsm to allow concurrent operations.
** support the anyPolicy semantic
** Check that we are really following the verification procedures in rfc3280.
* sm/keydb.c
** Check file permissions
** Check that all error code mapping is done.
** Remove the inter-module dependencies between gpgsm and keybox
** Add an source_of_key field
* agent/gpg-agent.c
** A SIGHUP should also restart the scdaemon
But do this only after all connections terminated. As of now we
only send a RESET.
* agent/command.c
** Make sure that secure memory is used where appropriate
* agent/pkdecrypt.c, agent/pksign.c
** Don't use stdio to return results.
** Support DSA
* agent/divert-scd.c
Remove the agent_reset_scd kludge. We will do this after Scdaemon
has been changed to allow multiple sessions. Currently in progress.
* Move pkcs-1 encoding into libgcrypt.
* Use a MAC to protect sensitive files.
The problem here is that we need yet another key and it is unlikely
that users are willing to remember that key too. It is possible to
do this with a smartcard, though.
* sm/export.c
** Return an error code or a status info per user ID.
* tests
** Makefile.am
We use printf(1) to setup the library path, this is not portable.
Furthermore LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not used on all systems. It doesn't
matter for now, because we use some GNU/*BSDish features anyway.
** Add a test to check the extkeyusage.
* doc/
** Explain how to setup a root CA key as trusted
** Explain how trustlist.txt might be managed.
** Write a script to generate man pages from texi.
In progress (yatm)
* Windows port
** gpgsm's LISTKEYS does not yet work
Fix is to change everything to libestream
** Signals are not support
This means we can't reread a configuration
** No card status notifications.
* scd/
** Release the card after use so that gpg 1.4 is able to access it
This won't be a sufficient change. we need to change gpg 1.4 to make
use of the agent. Work is underway.
