+* Noteworthy changes in release 4.11 (released 2017-05-27) [stable]
+- Introduced the ASN1_TIME_ENCODING_ERROR error code to indicate
+ an invalid encoding in the DER time fields.
+- Introduced flag ASN1_DECODE_FLAG_ALLOW_INCORRECT_TIME. This flag
+ allows decoding errors in time fields even when in strict DER mode.
+ That is introduced in order to allow toleration of invalid times in
+ X.509 certificates (which are common) even though strict DER adherence
+ is enforced in other fields.
+- Added safety check in asn1_find_node(). That prevents a crash
+ when a very long variable name is provided by the developer.
+ Note that this to be exploited requires controlling the ASN.1
+ definitions used by the developer, i.e., the 'name' parameter of
+ asn1_write_value() or asn1_read_value(). The library is
+ not designed to protect against malicious manipulation of the
+ developer assigned variable names. Reported by Jakub Jirasek.
