This commits reverts to plain memset() for cases like:
some_type foo;
memset( &foo, 0, sizeof( foo ) );
(Sometimes there is code between declaration in memset(), but it doesn't
matter as long as it doesn't touch foo.)
The reasoning is the same as in the previous commit: the stack shouldn't
contain sensitive data as we carefully wipe it after use.
Steps:
1. sed -i 's/\bmemset(\([^)]\)/mbedtls_platform_memset(\1/g' library/*.c tinycrypt/*.c include/mbedtls/*.h scripts/data_files/*.fmt
2. Manually edit library/platform_util.c to revert to memset() in the
implementations of mbedtls_platform_memset() and mbedtls_platform_memcpy()
3. egrep -n '\<memset\>' library/*.c include/mbedtls/*.h tinycrypt/*.c
The remaining occurrences are in three categories:
a. From point 2 above.
b. In comments.
c. In the initialisation of memset_func, to be changed in a future commit.
This commit adds a new function `mbedtls_asn1_traverse_sequence_of()`
which traverses an ASN.1 SEQUENCE and calls a user-provided callback
for each entry.
It allows to put the following constraints on the tags allowed
in the SEQUENCE:
- A tag mask and mandatory tag value w.r.t. that mask.
A non-matching tag leads to an MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_UNEXPECTED_TAG error.
For example, it the mask if 0xFF, this means that only
a single tag will be allowed in the SEQUENCE.
- A tag mask and optional tag value w.r.t. that mask.
A non-matching tag is silently ignored.
The main use for this flexibility is the traversal of the
`SubjectAlternativeNames` extension, where some parts of the
tag are fixed but some are flexible to indicate which type
of name the entry describes.
The previous code
- checked that at least 1 byte of ASN.1 tag data is available,
- read and stored that ASN.1 tag,
- called the ASN.1 parsing function, part of which is checking
that enough space is available and that the ASN.1 tag matches
the expected value MBEDTLS_ASN1_OID.
Since the ASN.1 parsing function includes bounds checks,
this can be streamlined to:
- call the ASN.1 parsing function directly,
- on success, store MBEDTLS_ASN1_OID in the tag field.
This commit applies this simplification to mbedtls_asn1_get_alg().
This commit removes all the static occurrencies of the function
mbedtls_zeroize() in each of the individual .c modules. Instead the
function has been moved to utils.h that is included in each of the
modules.
- As a consequence all error code that were positive were changed. A lot of MALLOC_FAILED and FILE_IO_ERROR error codes added for different modules.
- Programs and tests were adapted accordingly
