Botan is a crypto library for C++ released under the permissive 2-clause
BSD license. It provides most any cryptographic algorithm you might be
looking for, along with Transport Layer Security (TLS), X.509 certs,
CRLs, and path validation, a pipeline-style message processing system,
bcrypt password hashing, and other useful things.
This is an update to the latest upstream release, which includes a fix
for CVE-2016-2194, CVE-2016-2195, and CVE-2016-2196:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1305439
NOTE: this fix resulted in an ABI break. Any software which users have
built themselves with libbotan will need to be rebuilt. The now-obsolete
libbotan1.10_0 package may then be removed.
