This commit removes extension-writing code for X.509 non-v3 certificates from
mbedtls_x509write_crt_der. Previously, even if no extensions were present an
empty sequence would have been added.
This commit adds the following command line options to programs/x509/cert_write:
- version (val 1, 2, 3): Set the certificate's version (v1, v2, v3)
- authority_identifier (val 0, 1): Enable or disable the addition of the
authority identifier extension.
- subject_identifier (val 0, 1): Enable or disable the addition of the
subject identifier extension.
- basic_constraints (val 0, 1): Enable or disable the addition of the
basic constraints extension.
- md (val MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512): Set the hash function used
when creating the CRT.
Previously, 2048-bit and 4096-bit RSA key files had their bitsize indicated in their filename, while the original
1024-bit keys hadn't. This commit unifies the naming scheme by always indicating the bitsize in the filename.
For uniformity, this commit adds tests for DER encoded, SHA1-2DES and SHA1-RC4-128-encrypted RSA keys; for SHA1-3DES encrypted keys, these were already present.
This commit adds the commands used to generate the various RSA keys to tests/Makefile so that they can be easily
regenerated or modified, e.g. if larger key sizes or other encryption algorithms need to be tested in the future.
The stack buffer used to hold the decrypted key in pk_parse_pkcs8_encrypted_der
was statically sized to 2048 bytes, which is not enough for DER encoded 4096bit
RSA keys.
This commit resolves the problem by performing the key-decryption in-place,
circumventing the introduction of another stack or heap copy of the key.
There are two situations where pk_parse_pkcs8_encrypted_der is invoked:
1. When processing a PEM-encoded encrypted key in mbedtls_pk_parse_key.
This does not need adaption since the PEM context used to hold the decoded
key is already constructed and owned by mbedtls_pk_parse_key.
2. When processing a DER-encoded encrypted key in mbedtls_pk_parse_key.
In this case, mbedtls_pk_parse_key calls pk_parse_pkcs8_encrypted_der with
the buffer provided by the user, which is declared const. The commit
therefore adds a small code paths making a copy of the keybuffer before
calling pk_parse_pkcs8_encrypted_der.
This commit adds the function mbedtls_rsa_validate_crt for validating a set of CRT parameters. The function
mbedtls_rsa_check_crt is simplified accordingly.
Primality testing is guarded by the configuration flag MBEDTLS_GENPRIME and used in the new RSA helper functions. This
commit adds a corresponding preprocessor directive.
Alternative RSA implementations can be provided by defining MBEDTLS_RSA_ALT in
config.h, defining an mbedtls_rsa_context struct in a new file rsa_alt.h and
re-implementing the RSA interface specified in rsa.h.
Through the previous reworkings, the adherence to the interface is the only
implementation obligation - in particular, implementors are free to use a
different layout for the RSA context structure.
