What's new

v5.4 [Jan 3, 2019]
This release includes the following improvements and bug fixes:
Certificate serial numbers can now be entered in hexadecimal format as well (contributed by Stephen Tomkinson). Hex numbers are detected ...
if the input contains the letters a-f or A-F, for example "1a2b3c4d5e6f" or "1A2B3C4D5E6F" (decimal: 28772997619311)
or if the input starts with "0x", for example "0x12345678" would be interpreted as decimal 305419896
Additional button in "Certificate Extensions" window to save those extensions as a template (contributed by Stephen Tomkinson)
KSE allows now to select multiple entries by pressing SHIFT or CTRL and perform the following operations on all selected entries (contributed by Christoph Kaser):
cut
copy
paste
delete
Note that you have to use the "Edit" menu, the toolbar icons or the keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl-x, Ctrl-c, etc.) to select the operation. The right click menu cancels the selection of multiple entries.
Fixed AKI/SKI extensions and Issuer/Subject Organisation not shown in table view (reported by Michael Karnerfors)
Fixed AKI/SKI extensions not being updated when added from a template or CSR (reported by Michael Karnerfors)
Fixed an error when inspecting a SAN extension that contains a User Principal Name (reported by e4711s)
Key Usage extension is now correctly marked as critical in all default extension templates (reported by James K Polk)
macOS: Fixed an incompatibility with VAqua Look&Feel that caused a save dialog to be shown instead of an open dialog (reported by Filipe Forneck, fix contributed by Gary Bartlett)
macOS: VAqua Look&Feel is no longer the default
macOS: The application bundle now contains a custom Java runtime. This fixes issues with detection of JRE installations and notarization.
SHA256 is now used in timestamp requests (instead of SHA1)
PKCS#12 is now the default when creating a new keystore. This reflects the transition from JKS to PKCS#12 as the default keystore in Java 9 (JEP 229).
Updated Bouncy Castle library to version 1.66
