Record checking fails if mbedtls_ssl_check_record() is called with
external buffer. Received record sequence number is available in the
incoming record but it is not available in the ssl contexts `in_ctr`-
variable that is used when decoding the sequence number.
To fix the problem, temporarily update ssl context `in_ctr` to
point to the received record header and restore value later.
- out_ctr is public because it's transmited over the wire in DTLS (and in TLS
it can be inferred by a passive network attacker just by counting records).
- handshake mask is not a secret because it can be inferred by a passive
network attacker just logging record sequence number seen so far.
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.
We call xxx_init() on a structure when it has been freshly allocated (on the
stack or heap).
At this point it contains random-looking data none of which should be
sensitive, as all sensitive data is wiped using mbedtls_platform_zeroize()
when we're done using it and the memory area is going to be reclaimed (by
exiting the function or free()ing the buffer).
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.
So far, with MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE disabled, the SSL module relied
on a undocumented feature of the PK module: that you can distinguish between
contexts that have been setup and context that haven't. This feature is going
to go away in the case of PK_SINGLE_TYPE, as we'll soon (as in: the next
commit does that) no longer be storing the (now two-valued) pk_info member.
Note even with this change, we could still distinguish if the context has been
set up by look if pk_ctx is NULL or not, but this is also going away in the
near future (a few more commits down the road), so not a good option either.

As has been previously done for ciphersuites, this commit introduces
a zero-cost abstraction layer around the type
mbedtls_md_info const *
whose valid values represent implementations of message digest algorithms.
Access to a particular digest implementation can be requested by name or
digest ID through the API mbedtls_md_info_from_xxx(), which either returns
a valid implementation or NULL, representing failure.
This commit replaces such uses of `mbedtls_md_info const *` by an abstract
type `mbedtls_md_handle_t` whose valid values represent digest implementations,
and which has a designated invalid value MBEDTLS_MD_INVALID_HANDLE.
The purpose of this abstraction layer is to pave the way for builds which
support precisely one digest algorithm. In this case, mbedtls_md_handle_t
can be implemented as a two-valued type, with one value representing the
invalid handle, and the unique valid value representing the unique enabled
digest.
Extend scope of TC in ECDH-param extraction from CRT
Previously, TinyCrypt was only used for ECDHE-ECDSA/RSA ciphersuites.
This commit is a step towards using it for _all_ ciphersuites involving
ECDHE (specifically: ECDHE, ECDHE-PSK, static ECDH), extending the scope
of the use of TinyCrypt in the assembly of the PMS.
The SSL context maintains a set of 'out pointers' indicating the
address at which to write the header fields of the next outgoing
record. Some of these addresses have a static offset from the
beginning of the record header, while other offsets can vary
depending on the active record encryption mechanism: For example,
if an explicit IV is in use, there's an offset between the end
of the record header and the beginning of the encrypted data to
allow the explicit IV to be placed in between; also, if the DTLS
Connection ID (CID) feature is in use, the CID is part of the
record header, shifting all subsequent information (length, IV, data)
to the back.
When setting up an SSL context, the out pointers are initialized
according to the identity transform + no CID, and it is important
to keep them up to date whenever the record encryption mechanism
changes, which is done by the helper function ssl_update_out_pointers().
During context deserialization, updating the out pointers according
to the deserialized record transform went missing, leaving the out
pointers the initial state. When attemping to encrypt a record in
this state, this lead to failure if either a CID or an explicit IV
was in use. This wasn't caught in the tests by the bad luck that
they didn't use CID, _and_ used the default ciphersuite based on
ChaChaPoly, which doesn't have an explicit IV. Changing either of
this would have made the existing tests fail.
This commit fixes the bug by adding a call to ssl_update_out_pointers()
to ssl_context_load() implementing context deserialization.
Extending test coverage is left for a separate commit.
The NO_INLINE annotation of tls_prf_sha256() and tls_prf_sha384() from
the last commit surprisingly had an influence on ARMC5 compilation in
that tls_prf_generic() was no longer automatically inlined into
tls_prf_sha256() if only the latter was enabled (and is the point
where tls_prf_generic() is called). This commit forces inlining
of tls_prf_generic() in this case.
Usually, compilers are clever enough to pick the best inlining
strategy, but in this instance, it appears that compiling on ARMC6,
the compilers inlines xxx_prf_yyy() and xxx_calc_finished_yyy()
even though it really shouldn't. Forbid inlining through the use
of __attribute__((noinline)).
Somehow, at least ARMC5 isn't able to recognize this automatically.
Since some of the arguments to ssl_populate_transform() are compile-
time constants in reduced configurations, inlining leads to slightly
shorter code.
This saves a few bytes in configurations where only one hash
is enabled, and configurations allowing multiple hashes probably
don't care about code-size anyway.
This function is called on client-only once the ciphersuite has
been chosen and it it is known which digest the client will need
for the handshake transcript throughout the handshake, and causes
all other unneeded handshake transcripts to be discontinued.
(On the server, we cannot call this function because we don't know
which hash the client will those in its CertificateVerify message).
However, the benefit of this call is marginal, since transcript hash
computation is negligible compared to asymmetric crypto, and moreover
the handshake transcript contexts for the unused digests are still
stored in the SSL handshake parameter structure and not freed until
the end of the handshake.
Finally, if we're running on a _really_ constrained client, there
will be only one hash function enabled anyway, and in this case
the checksum optimization has no effect.
This commit therefore removes checksum optimization altogether,
saving some code on constrained systems.
Now function mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname is compile-time configurable
in config.h with define MBEDTLS_X509_REMOVE_HOSTNAME_VERIFICATION.
This affects to many x509 API's. See config.h for details.
