* Noteworthy changes in release 4.11 (unreleased) [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.
* Noteworthy changes in release 4.10 (released 2017-01-16) [stable]
- Updated gnulib
