This commit changes the implementation of `mbedtls_rsa_get_len` to return
`ctx->len` instead of always re-computing the modulus' byte-size via
`mbedtls_mpi_size`.
Although the variable ret was initialised to an error, the
MBEDTLS_MPI_CHK macro was overwriting it. Therefore it ended up being
0 whenewer the bignum computation was successfull and stayed 0
independently of the actual check.
This commit renames the test-only flag MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_HAVE_STRONG to ENTROPY_HAVE_STRONG to make it more transparent
that it's an internal flag, and also to content the testscript tests/scripts/check-names.pl which previously complained
about the macro occurring in a comment in `entropy.c` without being defined in a library file.
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.
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.
There were preprocessor directives in pk.c and pk_wrap.c that cheked
whether the bit length of size_t was greater than that of unsigned int.
However, the check relied on the MBEDTLS_HAVE_INT64 macro being defined
which is not directly related to size_t. This might result in errors in
some platforms. This change modifies the check to use the macros
SIZE_MAX and UINT_MAX instead making the code more robust.
As noted in #557, several functions use 'index' resp. 'time'
as parameter names in their declaration and/or definition, causing name
conflicts with the functions in the C standard library of the same
name some compilers warn about.
This commit renames the arguments accordingly.
Modify the function mbedtls_x509_csr_parse_der() so that it checks the
parsed CSR version integer before it increments the value. This prevents
a potential signed integer overflow, as these have undefined behaviour
in the C standard.
Rename the macro MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETUP_ALT to
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETUP_TEARDOWN_ALT to make the name more descriptive
as this macro enables/disables both functions.
Add the following two functions to allow platform setup and teardown
operations for the full library to be hooked in:
* mbedtls_platform_setup()
* mbedtls_platform_teardown()
An mbedtls_platform_context C structure is also added and two internal
functions that are called by the corresponding setup and teardown
functions above:
* mbedtls_internal_platform_setup()
* mbedtls_internal_plartform_teardown()
Finally, the macro MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETUP_ALT is also added to allow
mbedtls_platform_context and internal function to be overriden by the
user as needed for a platform.
The previous commit bd5ceee484f201b90a384636ba12de86bd330cba removed
the definition of the global constants
- mbedtls_test_ca_crt_rsa_len,
- mbedtls_test_cli_crt_rsa_len,
- mbedtls_test_ca_crt_rsa, and
- mbedtls_test_cli_crt_rsa.
This commit restores these to maintain ABI compatibility.
Further, it was noticed that without SHA256_C being enabled the
previous code failed to compile because because the SHA1 resp. SHA256
certificates were only defined when the respective SHAXXX_C options
were set, but the emission of the global variable mbedtls_test_ca_crt
was unconditionally defined through the SHA256
certificate. Previously, the RSA SHA1 certificate was unconditionally
defined and used for that.
As a remedy, this commit makes sure some RSA certificate is defined
and exported through the following rule:
1. If SHA256_C is active, define an RSA SHA256 certificate and export
it as mbedtls_test_ca_crt. Also, define SHA1 certificates only if
SHA1_C is set.
2. If SHA256_C is not set, always define SHA1 certificate and export
it as mbedtls_test_ca_crt.

If we didn't walk the whole chain, then there may be any kind of errors in the
part of the chain we didn't check, so setting all flags looks like the safe
thing to do.
This change moves the calls to mbedtls_sha256_starts() and
mbedtls_sha512_starts() out of the mbedtls_entropy_init() function as
these now have return codes which need to be checked.
This patch modifies the entropy.c module to ensure that the sha256 and
sha512 contexts are correctly initialised and freed instead of skipping
these calls or simply zeroizing with memset() or mbedtls_zeroize().
This is important as the sha contexts might otherwise leak memory or
other resources, and even more so in the context of hardware
accelerators where the configuration of the device might be done in the
init and free calls.
This patch modifies the internal md context structure in md_wrap.c to

The check `if( *p + n > end )` in `ssl_parse_client_psk_identity` is
unsafe because `*p + n` might overflow, thus bypassing the check. As
`n` is a user-specified value up to 65K, this is relevant if the
library happens to be located in the last 65K of virtual memory.
This commit replaces the check by a safe version.

Add ChangeLog entry
Ensure application data records are not kept when fully processed
Add hard assertion to mbedtls_ssl_read_record_layer
Fix mbedtls_ssl_read
Simplify retaining of messages for future processing
This commit fixes the following case: If a client is both expecting a
SERVER_HELLO and has an application data record that's partially
processed in flight (that's the situation the client gets into after
receiving a ServerHelloRequest followed by ApplicationData), a
subsequent call to mbedtls_ssl_read will set keep_current_message = 1
when seeing the unexpected application data, but not reset it to 0
after the application data has been processed. This commit fixes this.
It also documents and suggests how the problem might be solved in a
more structural way on the long run.
This commit adds a hard assertion to mbedtls_ssl_read_record_layer
triggering if both ssl->in_hslen and ssl->in_offt are not 0. This
should never happen, and if it does, there's no sensible way of
telling whether the previous message was a handshake or an application
data message.
There are situations in which it is not clear what message to expect
next. For example, the message following the ServerHello might be
either a Certificate, a ServerKeyExchange or a CertificateRequest. We
deal with this situation in the following way: Initially, the message
processing function for one of the allowed message types is called,
which fetches and decodes a new message. If that message is not the
expected one, the function returns successfully (instead of throwing
an error as usual for unexpected messages), and the handshake
continues to the processing function for the next possible message. To
not have this function fetch a new message, a flag in the SSL context
structure is used to indicate that the last message was retained for
further processing, and if that's set, the following processing
function will not fetch a new record.
This commit simplifies the usage of this message-retaining parameter
by doing the check within the record-fetching routine instead of the
specific message-processing routines. The code gets cleaner this way
and allows retaining messages to be used in other situations as well
without much effort. This will be used in the next commits.
This commit adds four tests to tests/ssl-opt.sh:
(1) & (2): Check behaviour of optional/required verification when the
trusted CA chain is empty.
(3) & (4): Check behaviour of optional/required verification when the
client receives a server certificate with an unsupported curve.
This commit changes the behaviour of mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate
to make the two authentication modes MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_REQUIRED and
MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_OPTIONAL be in the following relationship:
Mode == MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_REQUIRED
<=> Mode == MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_OPTIONAL + check verify result
Also, it changes the behaviour to perform the certificate chain
verification even if the trusted CA chain is empty. Previously, the
function failed in this case, even when using optional verification,
which was brought up in #864.

By default, keep allowing SHA-1 in key exchange signatures. Disabling
it causes compatibility issues, especially with clients that use
TLS1.2 but don't send the signature_algorithms extension.
SHA-1 is forbidden in certificates by default, since it's vulnerable
to offline collision-based attacks.
In the TLS test client, allow SHA-1 as a signature hash algorithm.
Without this, the renegotation tests failed.
A previous commit had allowed SHA-1 via the certificate profile but
that only applied before the initial negotiation which includes the
signature_algorithms extension.
Default to forbidding the use of SHA-1 in TLS where it is unsafe: for
certificate signing, and as the signature hash algorithm for the TLS
1.2 handshake signature. SHA-1 remains allowed in HMAC-SHA-1 in the
XXX_SHA ciphersuites and in the PRF for TLS <= 1.1.
For easy backward compatibility for use in controlled environments,
turn on the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1 compiled-time option.

Introduce macros and functions to characterize certain ciphersuites.
Add missing return code checks in the functions pem_des_decrypt(),
pem_3des_decrypt() and pem_aes_decrypt() so that the calling function
mbedtls_pem_read_buffer() is notified of errors reported by the crypto
primitives AES, DES and 3DES.
Fixed a bug in ssl_srv.c when parsing TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV in the
ciphersuite list that caused it to miss it sometimes. Reported by Hugo
Leisink as issue #810. Fix initially by @andreasag01; this commit
isolates the bug fix and adds a non-regression test.
This patch modifies the following 2 functions in the AES module to
change the return type from void to int:
* mbedtls_aes_encrypt() -> mbedtls_internal_aes_encrypt()
* mbedtls_aes_decrypt() -> mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt()
This change is necessary to allow users of MBEDTLS_AES_ALT,
MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT and MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT to return an error
code when replacing the default with their own implementation, e.g.
a hardware crypto accelerator.
The RSA private key functions rsa_rsaes_pkcs1_v15_decrypt and
rsa_rsaes_oaep_decrypt put sensitive data (decryption results) on the
stack. Wipe it before returning.

According to RFC5246 the server can indicate the known Certificate
Authorities or can constrain the aurhorisation space by sending a
certificate list. This part of the message is optional and if omitted,
the client may send any certificate in the response.
The previous behaviour of mbed TLS was to always send the name of all the
CAs that are configured as root CAs. In certain cases this might cause
usability and privacy issues for example:
- If the list of the CA names is longer than the peers input buffer then
the handshake will fail
- If the configured CAs belong to third parties, this message gives away
information on the relations to these third parties
Therefore we introduce an option to suppress the CA list in the
Certificate Request message.
Providing this feature as a runtime option comes with a little cost in
code size and advantages in maintenance and flexibility.
This commit changes `ssl_parse_signature_algorithms_ext` to remember
one suitable ( := supported by client and by our config ) hash
algorithm per signature algorithm.
It also modifies the ciphersuite checking function
`ssl_ciphersuite_match` to refuse a suite if there
is no suitable hash algorithm.
Finally, it adds the corresponding entry to the ChangeLog.
The routine `mbedtls_ssl_write_server_key_exchange` heavily depends on
what kind of cipher suite is active: some don't need a
ServerKeyExchange at all, some need (EC)DH parameters but no server
signature, some require both. Each time we want to restrict a certain
piece of code to some class of ciphersuites, it is guarded by a
lengthy concatentation of configuration checks determining whether at
least one of the relevant cipher suites is enabled in the config; on
the code level, it is guarded by the check whether one of these
cipher suites is the active one.
To ease readability of the code, this commit introduces several helper
macros and helper functions that can be used to determine whether a
certain class of ciphersuites (a) is active in the config, and
(b) contains the currently present ciphersuite.
With this commit the Elliptic Curve Point interface is rewised. Two
compile time options has been removed to simplify the interface and
the function names got a new prefix that indicates that these functions
are for internal use and not part of the public interface.
The intended use of the abstraction layer for Elliptic Curve Point
arithmetic is to enable using hardware cryptographic accelerators.
These devices are a shared resource and the driver code rarely provides
thread safety.
This commit adds mutexes to the abstraction layer to protect the device
in a multi-threaded environment.
The primary use case behind providing an abstraction layer to enable
alternative Elliptic Curve Point arithmetic implementation, is making
use of cryptographic acceleration hardware if it is present.
To provide thread safety for the hardware accelerator we need a mutex
to guard it.
The compile time macros enabling the initialisation and deinitialisation
in the alternative Elliptic Curve Point arithmetic implementation had
names that did not end with '_ALT' as required by check-names.sh.
This patch introduces some additional checks in the PK module for 64-bit
systems only. The problem is that the API functions in the PK
abstraction accept a size_t value for the hashlen, while the RSA module
accepts an unsigned int for the hashlen. Instead of silently casting
size_t to unsigned int, this change checks whether the hashlen overflows
an unsigned int and returns an error.
The test case was generated by modifying our signature code so that it
produces a 7-byte long padding (which also means garbage at the end, so it is
essential in to check that the error that is detected first is indeed the
padding rather than the final length check).
In many places in TLS handling, some code detects a fatal error, sends
a fatal alert message, and returns to the caller. If sending the alert
fails, then return the error that triggered the alert, rather than
overriding the return status. This effectively causes alert sending
failures to be ignored. Formerly the code was inconsistently sometimes
doing one, sometimes the other.
In general ignoring the alert is the right thing: what matters to the
caller is the original error. A typical alert failure is that the
connection is already closed.
One case which remains not handled correctly is if the alert remains
in the output buffer (WANT_WRITE). Then it won't be sent, or will be
truncated. We'd need to either delay the application error or record
the write buffering notice; to be done later.
When provided with an empty line, mpi_read_file causes a numeric
underflow resulting in a stack underflow. This commit fixes this and
adds some documentation to mpi_read_file.
The modular inversion function hangs when provided with the modulus 1. This commit refuses this modulus with a BAD_INPUT error code. It also adds a test for this case.
The TLS client and server code was usually closing the connection in
case of a fatal error without sending an alert. This commit adds
alerts in many cases.
Added one test case to detect that we send the alert, where a server
complains that the client's certificate is from an unknown CA (case
tracked internally as IOTSSL-1330).
Fix a buffer overflow when writting a string representation of an MPI
number to a buffer in hexadecimal. The problem occurs because hex
digits are written in pairs and this is not accounted for in the
calculation of the required buffer size when the number of digits is
odd.
When using ssl_cookie with MBEDTLS_THREADING_C, fix a resource leak caused by
initiating a mutex in mbedtls_ssl_cookie_free instead of freeing it.

Tracked in #771
The function ecp_mod_koblitz computed the space for the result of a
multiplication optimally for that specific case, but unfortunately
the function mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi performs a generic, suboptimal
calculation and needs one more limb for the result. Since the result's
buffer is on the stack, the best case scenario is that the program
stops.
This only happened on 64 bit platforms.

A heap overread might happen when parsing malformed certificates.

Refactoring the parsing fixes the problem. This commit applies the

Fixes a regression introduced by an earlier commit that modified
x509_crt_verify_top() to ensure that valid certificates that are after past or
future valid in the chain are processed. However the change introduced a change
in behaviour that caused the verification flags MBEDTLS_X509_BADCERT_EXPIRED and
MBEDTLS_BADCERT_FUTURE to always be set whenever there is a failure in the
verification regardless of the cause.
The fix maintains both behaviours:
* Ensure that valid certificates after future and past are verified
* Ensure that the correct verification flags are set.
Modifies the function mbedtls_x509_crl_parse() to ensure that a CRL in PEM
format with trailing characters after the footer does not result in the
execution of an infinite loop.
Fix potential integer overflows in the function mbedtls_base64_decode().
This overflow would mainly be exploitable in 32-bit systems and could

Fix potential integer overflows in the following functions:
* mbedtls_md2_update() to be bypassed and cause
* mbedtls_cipher_update()
* mbedtls_ctr_drbg_reseed()
This overflows would mainly be exploitable in 32-bit systems and could
cause buffer bound checks to be bypassed.
Fix an incorrect condition in ssl_check_ctr_renegotiate() that compared
64 bits of record counter instead of 48 bits as described in RFC 6347
Section 4.3.1. This would cause the function's return value to be
occasionally incorrect and the renegotiation routines to be triggered
at unexpected times.

The fix maintains both behaviours:
* Ensure that valid certificates after future and past are verified
* Ensure that the correct verification flags are set.
To do so, a temporary pointer to the first future or past valid
certificate is maintained while traversing the chain. If a truly valid
certificate is found then that one is used, otherwise if no valid
certificate is found and the end of the chain is reached, the program
reverts back to using the future or past valid certificate.
