The ssl-opt.sh test cases using session resumption tend to fail occasionally
on the CI due to a race condition in how ssl_server2 and ssl_client2 handle
the reconnection cycle.
The server does the following in order:
- S1 send application data
- S2 send a close_notify alert
- S3 close the client socket
- S4 wait for a "new connection" (actually a new datagram)
- S5 start a handshake
The client does the following in order:
- C1 wait for and read application data from the server
- C2 send a close_notify alert
- C3 close the server socket
- C4 reset session data and re-open a server socket
- C5 start a handshake
If the client has been able to send the close_notify (C2) and if has been
delivered to the server before if closes the client socket (S3), when the
server reaches S4, the datagram that we start the new connection will be the
ClientHello and everything will be fine.
However if S3 wins the race and happens before the close_notify is delivered,
in S4 the close_notify is what will be seen as the first datagram in a new
connection, and then in S5 this will rightfully be rejected as not being a
valid ClientHello and the server will close the connection (and go wait for
another one). The client will then fail to read from the socket and exit
non-zero and the ssl-opt.sh harness will correctly report this as a failure.
In order to avoid this race condition in test using ssl_client2 and
ssl_server2, this commits introduces a new command-line option
skip_close_notify to ssl_client2 and uses it in all ssl-opt.sh tests that use
session resumption with DTLS and ssl_server2.
This works because ssl_server2 knows how many messages it expects in each
direction and in what order, and closes the connection after that rather than
relying on close_notify (which is also why there was a race in the first
place).
Tests that use another server (in practice there are two of them, using
OpenSSL as a server) wouldn't work with skip_close_notify, as the server won't
close the connection until the client sends a close_notify, but for the same
reason they don't need it (there is no race between receiving close_notify and
closing as the former is the cause of the later).
An alternative approach would be to make ssl_server2 keep the connection open
until it receives a close_notify. Unfortunately it creates problems for tests
where we simulate a lossy network, as the close_notify could be lost (and the
client can't retransmit it). We could modify udp_proxy with an option to never
drop alert messages, but when TLS 1.3 comes that would no longer work as the
type of messages will be encrypted.

As the SSL programs, like ssl_client2 and ssl_server2, are dependent on
SSL and therefore about to be removed, the only consumer of query_config
is the query_compile_time_config test. As such, it makes sense to move
query_config to be next to what uses it.
If `context_buf = mbedtls_calloc( 1, buf_len )` failed,
`context_buf_len` was not initialized. Noticed by
`gcc -Os -Werror=maybe-uninitialized`.
This was only a problem in ssl_server2 (a test program), only with
MBEDTLS_SSL_CONTEXT_SERIALIZATION enabled.
Make client_random and server_random const in
mbedtls_ssl_export_keys_ext_t, so that the key exporter is discouraged
from modifying the client/server hello.
Update examples and tests use const for hello.random as well, to ensure
that the export callbacks are of the proper type.
Fixes#2759
This commit adds command line options
- nss_keylog=0/1
- nss_keylog_file=FILENAME
to the example programs ssl/ssl_client2 and ssl/ssl_server2 which
allow to print and export the session keys in the NSS keylog
for debugging purposes.
* origin/pr/2803:
Add a ChangeLog entry for mbedtls_net_close()
Added mbedtls_net_close and use it in ssl_fork_server to correctly disassociate the client socket from the parent process and the server socket from the child process.
The code wants timer callbacks to be set (checked in fetch_input()), and can't
easily check whether we're using nbio, so it seems easier to require the
callbacks to be always set rather than only with nbio as was previously done.
context_buf was never free()d. Moreover, since we want to free it on error
paths as well, and even properly zeroize it in order to demonstrate good
memory hygiene, we need to make it and its length main()-scoped.
Previously it was missing reset in case 1, and in case 2 the code was never
executed as the option value was reset to 0.
Tighten checking of return values of save(NULL, 0) now that it works.
Also, improve the printed output as well as the comments.
I checked manually that everything now works and fail in the expected way:
save, reset-or-reinit and load all succeed, but the subsequent read or write
fails.
This is enabled by default as we generally enable things by default unless
there's a reason not to (experimental, deprecated, security risk).
We need a compile-time option because, even though the functions themselves
can be easily garbage-collected by the linker, implementing them will require
saving 64 bytes of Client/ServerHello.random values after the handshake, that
would otherwise not be needed, and people who don't need this feature
shouldn't have to pay the price of increased RAM usage.
We have explicit recommendations to use US spelling for technical writing, so
let's apply this to code as well for uniformity. (My fingers tend to prefer UK
spelling, so this needs to be fixed in many places.)

This allows callers to discover what an appropriate size is. Otherwise they'd
have to either try repeatedly, or allocate an overly large buffer (or some
combination of those).
Adapt documentation an example usage in ssl_client2.
Avoid useless copy with mbedtls_ssl_get_session() before serialising.
Used in ssl_client2 for testing and demonstrating usage, but unfortunately
that means mbedtls_ssl_get_session() is no longer tested, which will be fixed
in the next commit.
This provides basic testing for the session (de)serialisation functions, as
well as an example of how to use them.
Tested locally with tests/ssl-opt.sh -f '^Session resume'.
