We don't compile in the assembly code if compiler optimisations are disabled as
the number of registers used in the assembly code doesn't work with the -O0
option. Also anyone select -O0 probably doesn't want to compile in the assembly
code anyway.
The length to the debug message could conceivably leak through the time it
takes to print it, and that length would in turn reveal whether padding was
correct or not.
The basis for the Lucky 13 family of attacks is for an attacker to be able to
distinguish between (long) valid TLS-CBC padding and invalid TLS-CBC padding.
Since our code sets padlen = 0 for invalid padding, the length of the input to
the HMAC function, and the location where we read the MAC, give information
about that.
A local attacker could gain information about that by observing via a
cache attack whether the bytes at the end of the record (at the location of
would-be padding) have been read during MAC verification (computation +
comparison).
Let's make sure they're always read.
The basis for the Lucky 13 family of attacks is for an attacker to be able to
distinguish between (long) valid TLS-CBC padding and invalid TLS-CBC padding.
Since our code sets padlen = 0 for invalid padding, the length of the input to
the HMAC function gives information about that.
Information about this length (modulo the MD/SHA block size) can be deduced
from how much MD/SHA padding (this is distinct from TLS-CBC padding) is used.
If MD/SHA padding is read from a (static) buffer, a local attacker could get
information about how much is used via a cache attack targeting that buffer.
Let's get rid of this buffer. Now the only buffer used is the internal MD/SHA
one, which is always read fully by the process() function.
The CONTRIBUTING.md referred to 'legacy' branches instead of LTS branches, and
also referenced mbedtls-1.3 which is no longer maintained, and omitted
mbedtls-2.7 which is.
Fix Documentation error in `mbedtls_ssl_get_session`.
This function supports deep copying of the session,
and the peer certificate is not lost anymore, Resolves#926
Move definition of `MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_STREAM` to header file
(`mbedtls_cipher_internal.h`), because it is used by more than
one file. Raised by TrinityTonic in #1719
1. Update the test script to un the ECC tests only if the relevant
configurations are defined in `config.h` file
2. Change the HASH of the ciphersuite from SHA1 based to SHA256
for better example
