Hello, 
 I've just released gnutls 3.3.28. This is a bug-fix release on
the previous stable branch.

* Version 3.3.28 (released 2017-07-04)

** libgnutls: Fixed issue when rehandshaking without a client certificate in
   a session which initially used one. Reported by Frantisek Sumsal.

** libgnutls: fix issue in RSA-PSK client callback which resulted in no username
   being sent to the peer. Patch by Nicolas Dufresne.

** libgnutls: no longer parse the ResponseID field of the status response
   TLS extension. The field is not used by GnuTLS nor is made available to
   calling applications. That addresses a null pointer dereference on server
   side caused by packets containing the ResponseID field. Reported
   by Hubert Kario. [GNUTLS-SA-2017-4]

** libgnutls: Handle specially HSMs which request explicit authentication.
   There are HSMs which return CKR_USER_NOT_LOGGED_IN on the first private key
   operation. Detect that state and try to login.

** libgnutls: the GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_LOGIN will force a login on HSMs.
   That is, even in tokens which do not have a CKF_LOGIN_REQUIRED flag
   a login will be forced. This improves operation on certain Safenet HSMs.

** libgnutls: do not set leading zeros when copying integers on HSMs.
   PKCS#11 defines integers as unsigned having most significant byte
   first, e.g., 32768 = 0x80 0x00. This is interpreted literraly by
   some HSMs which do not accept an integer with a leading zero. This
   improves operation with certain Atos HSMs.

** libgnutls: Backported PKCS#11 key generation functionality for DSA keys.

** libgnutls: Improve check for /dev/urandom uniqueness. Ensure that when
   gnutls_global_init() is called for a second time that /dev/urandom is
   re-opened when the inode or device ID has changed.

** API and ABI modifications:
No changes since last version.
