The strategy of "cleanup under-aligned buffers" is not scaling well. Corner cases are still turing up. The library has some corner-case breaks, like old 32-bit Intels. And it still has not solved the AltiVec and Power8 alignment problems.
For now we are backing out the changes and investigating other strategies
trap.h and CRYPTOPP_ASSERT has existed for over a year in Master. We deferred on the cut-over waiting for a minor version bump (5.7). We have to use it now due to CVE-2016-7420
- added AuthenticatedSymmetricCipher interface class and Filter wrappers
- added CCM, GCM (with SSE2 assembly), CMAC, and SEED
- improved AES speed on x86 and x64
- removed WORD64_AVAILABLE; compiler 64-bit int support is now required
