Rename to mbedtls_ssl_get_async_operation_data and
mbedtls_ssl_set_async_operation_data so that they're about
"async operation data" and not about some not-obvious "data".
The certificate passed to async callbacks may not be the one set by
mbedtls_ssl_conf_own_cert. For example, when using an SNI callback,
it's whatever the callback is using. Document this, and add a test
case (and code sample) with SNI.
We naturally added the new Curve448 ECP group ID in alphabetical order in
the mbedtls_ecp_group_id enum. However, this causes binary incompatibility
issues as previous binaries will use values for groups that now have a
different meaning. For example, MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP192K1, old value 10,
would mean Curve448 (MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_CURVE448) and the wrong group ID used.
Fix the binary compatibility issue by adding new enum entries to the end of
the enum, even though this isn't so great for readbility as the list is no
longer in alphabetical order. However, the list wasn't perfectly in
alphabetical order before anyway.
Document how the SSL async sign callback must treat its md_alg and
hash parameters when doing an RSA signature: sign-the-hash if md_alg
is nonzero (TLS 1.2), and sign-the-digestinfo if md_alg is zero
(TLS <= 1.1).
In ssl_server2, don't use md_alg=MBEDTLS_MD_NONE to indicate that
ssl_async_resume must perform an encryption, because md_alg is also
MBEDTLS_MD_NONE in TLS <= 1.1. Add a test case to exercise this
case (signature with MBEDTLS_MD_NONE).
When a handshake step starts an asynchronous operation, the
application needs to know which SSL connection the operation is for,
so that when the operation completes, the application can wake that
connection up. Therefore the async start callbacks need to take the
SSL context as an argument. It isn't enough to let them set a cookie
in the SSL connection, the application needs to be able to find the
right SSL connection later.
Also pass the SSL context to the other callbacks for consistency. Add
a new field to the handshake that the application can use to store a
per-connection context. This new field replaces the former
context (operation_ctx) that was created by the start function and
passed to the resume function.
Add a boolean flag to the handshake structure to track whether an
asynchronous operation is in progress. This is more robust than
relying on the application to set a non-null application context.
Change the signature of mbedtls_ssl_handshake_free again. Now take the
whole SSL context as argument and not just the configuration and the
handshake substructure.
This is in preparation for changing the asynchronous cancel callback
to take the SSL context as an argument.
Conflict resolution:
* ChangeLog: put the new entry from my branch in the proper place.
* include/mbedtls/error.h: counted high-level module error codes again.
* include/mbedtls/ssl.h: picked different numeric codes for the
concurrently added errors; made the new error a full sentence per
current standards.
* library/error.c: ran scripts/generate_errors.pl.
* library/ssl_srv.c:
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "DHE key exchanges": the conflict
was due to style corrections in development
(4cb1f4d49c) which I merged with
my refactoring.
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "For key exchanges involving the
server signing", first case, variable declarations: merged line
by line:
* dig_signed_len: added in async
* signature_len: removed in async
* hashlen: type changed to size_t in development
* hash: size changed to MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_SIZE in async
* ret: added in async
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "For key exchanges involving the
server signing", first cae comment: the conflict was due to style
corrections in development (4cb1f4d49c)
which I merged with my comment changes made as part of refactoring
the function.
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "Compute the hash to be signed" if
`md_alg != MBEDTLS_MD_NONE`: conflict between
ebd652fe2d
"ssl_write_server_key_exchange: calculate hashlen explicitly" and
46f5a3e9b4 "Check return codes from
MD in ssl code". I took the code from commit
ca1d742904 made on top of development
which makes mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_ssl_tls return the
hash length.
* programs/ssl/ssl_server2.c: multiple conflicts between the introduction
of MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS and new auxiliary functions and
definitions for async support, and the introduction of idle().
* definitions before main: concurrent additions, kept both.
* main, just after `handshake:`: in the loop around
mbedtls_ssl_handshake(), merge the addition of support for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS and SSL_ASYNC_INJECT_ERROR_CANCEL
with the addition of the idle() call.
* main, if `opt.transport == MBEDTLS_SSL_TRANSPORT_STREAM`: take the
code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS.
* main, loop around mbedtls_ssl_read() in the datagram case:
take the code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS; revert to a do...while loop.
* main, loop around mbedtls_ssl_write() in the datagram case:
take the code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS; revert to a do...while loop.
In mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_tls1_2, add an output parameter for
the hash length. The code that calls this function can currently do
without it, but it will need the hash length in the future, when
adding support for a third-party callback to calculate the signature
of the hash.
Implement SSL asynchronous private operation for the case of a
signature operation in a server.
This is a first implementation. It is functional, but the code is not
clean, with heavy reliance on goto.
New compile-time option MBEDTLS_SSL_ASYNC_PRIVATE_C, enabling
callbacks to replace private key operations. These callbacks allow the
SSL stack to make an asynchronous call to an external cryptographic
module instead of calling the cryptography layer inside the library.
The call is asynchronous in that it may return the new status code
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS, in which case the SSL stack returns
and can be later called where it left off.
This commit introduces the configuration option. Later commits will
implement the feature proper.
This function is declared in ssl_internal.h, so this is not a public
API change.
This is in preparation for mbedtls_ssl_handshake_free needing to call
methods from the config structure.
Add a new macro MBEDTLS_UTILS_ZEROIZE that allows users to configure
mbedtls_zeroize() to an alternative definition when defined. If the
macro is not defined, then mbed TLS will use the default definition of
the function.
The new header contains common information across various mbed TLS
modules and avoids code duplication. To start, utils.h currently only
contains the mbedtls_zeroize() function.
Minor documentation improvements:
*Standardized file brief description.
*Separated return statements.
*Reordered tags within documentation blocks so that params and returns are last in block.
*p_rng descriptions changed from "parameter" to "context".
*Suggest to specify issue for each return code, where multiple failure return codes are listed, or generalize.
*Minor improvements to parameter documentation proposed by eng.
1. Add 3des context to be allowed for alternative defintion
2. Move some ecp structs, to disallow alternative definition of them,
as other modules rely on them
The cryptographic API should not be related to whether or not
there is alternative implementation. The API should be same for regular
implementation, and for alternative implementation, so it is defined
outside of the XXX_ALT precompilation check in the cryptographic API header
Clarify what MBEDTLS_ERR_ECP_SIG_LEN_MISMATCH and
MBEDTLS_ERR_PK_SIG_LEN_MISMATCH mean. Add comments to highlight that
this indicates that a valid signature is present, unlike other error
codes. See

In 2.7.0, we replaced a number of MD functions with deprecated inline
versions. This causes ABI compatibility issues, as the functions are no
longer guaranteed to be callable when built into a shared library.
Instead, deprecate the functions without also inlining them, to help
maintain ABI backwards compatibility.
Currently only SHA1 is supported as PRF algorithm for PBKDF2
(PKCS#5 v2.0).
This means that keys encrypted and authenticated using
another algorithm of the SHA family cannot be decrypted.
This deficiency has become particularly incumbent now that
PKIs created with OpenSSL1.1 are encrypting keys using
hmacSHA256 by default (OpenSSL1.0 used PKCS#5 v1.0 by default
and even if v2 was forced, it would still use hmacSHA1).
Enable support for all the digest algorithms of the SHA
family for PKCS#5 v2.0.

MD2, MD4, MD5, DES and SHA-1 are considered weak and their use
constitutes a security risk. If possible, we recommend avoiding
dependencies on them, and considering stronger message digests and
ciphers instead.
Add MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED error codes for all cryptography
modules where the software implementation can be replaced by a hardware
implementation.
This does not include the individual message digest modules since they
currently have no way to return error codes.
This does include the higher-level md, cipher and pk modules since
alternative implementations and even algorithms can be plugged in at
runtime.
This commit allows users to provide alternative implementations of the
ECJPAKE interface through the configuration option MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_ALT.
When set, the user must add `ecjpake_alt.h` declaring the same
interface as `ecjpake.h`, as well as add some compilation unit which
implements the functionality. This is in line with the preexisting
support for alternative implementations of other modules.
The _ext suffix suggests "new arguments", but the new functions have
the same arguments. Use _ret instead, to convey that the difference is
that the new functions return a value.

mbedtls_timing_get_timer with reset=1 is called both to initialize a
timer object and to reset an already-initialized object. In an
initial call, the content of the data structure is indeterminate, so
the code should not read from it. This could crash if signed overflows
trap, for example.
As a consequence, on reset, we can't return the previously elapsed
time as was previously done on Windows. Return 0 as was done on Unix.

The previous commit reduced the internal header size to 5 bytes in case of
TLS. This is not a valid since in that situation Mbed TLS internally uses the
first 8 bytes of the message buffer for the implicit record sequence number.
In case truncated HMAC must be used but the Mbed TLS peer hasn't been updated
yet, one can use the compile-time option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT to
temporarily fall back to the old, non-compliant implementation of the truncated
HMAC extension.
This commit splits off the RSA helper functions into separate headers and
compilation units to have a clearer separation of the public RSA interface,
intended to be used by end-users, and the helper functions which are publicly
provided only for the benefit of designers of alternative RSA implementations.
1) move the change into Features from Changes, in the changLog
2) Change the feature alternative configuration MBEDTLS_ECDH_ALT
definition to function alternative defintions
MBEDTLS_ECDH_COMPUTE_SHARED_ALT and MBEDTLS_ECDH_GEN_PUBLIC_ALT
1) update ChangLog to have new feature in Features instead of Changes
2) Change MBEDTLS_ECDSA_ALT to function specific alternative definitions:
MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT and MBEDTLS_ECDSA_GENKEY_ALT
It is not necessary to pass a CSPRNG to `mbedtls_rsa_deduce_moduli`, as there
exist well-working static strategies, and even if a PRNG is preferred, a
non-secure one would be sufficient.
Further, the implementation is changed to use a static strategy for the choice
of candidates which according to some benchmarks even performs better than the
previous one using random candidate choices.
This commit restricts WANT_READ to indicate that no data is available on the
underlying transport. To signal the need for further processing - which was
previously also handled through this error code - a new internal error code
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CONTINUE_PROCESSING is introduced.
- Enhances the documentation of mbedtls_ssl_get_bytes_avail (return
the number of bytes left in the current application data record, if
there is any).
- Introduces a new public function mbedtls_ssl_check_pending for
checking whether any data in the internal buffers still needs to be
processed. This is necessary for users implementing event-driven IO
to decide when they can safely idle until they receive further
events from the underlying transport.
Further, state explicitly that wrong key types need not be supported by alternative RSA implementations, and that those
may instead return the newly introduced error code MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_UNSUPPORTED_OPERATION.
This commit returns to using constant macros instead of global variables for the DHM group constants. Further, macros
providing the binary encoding of the primes from RFC 3526 and RFC 7919 are added. The hex-string macros are deprecated.
Original intention was to be allowed to perform in-place operations like changing the byte-order before importing
parameters into an HSM. Now a copy is needed in this case, but there's no more danger of a user expecting the arguments
to be left untouched.
Document explicitly that `mbedtls_rsa_check_privkey` and `mbedtls_rsa_complete` succeeding does not guarantee the
consistency of the underlying RSA private key but only that enough information is present to perform a private key
operation.
This commit disables the new MBEDTLS_RSA_FORCE_BLINDING option by default to preserve backwards
compatibility. Further, it deprecates disabling to prepare for a future release in which blinding will be
unconditionally enforced.

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.
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.
This commit extends the RSA interface by import/export calls that can be used to
setup an RSA context from a subset of the core RSA parameters (N,P,Q,D,E).
The intended workflow is the following:
1. Call mbedtls_rsa_import one or multiple times to import the core parameters.
2. Call mbedtls_rsa_complete to deduce remaining core parameters as well as any
implementation-defined internal helper variables.
The RSA context is ready for use after this call.
The import function comes in two variants mbedtls_rsa_import and
mbedtls_rsa_import_raw, the former taking pointers to MPI's as input, the latter
pointers buffers holding to big-endian encoded MPI's.
The reason for this splitting is the following: When only providing an import
function accepting const MPI's, a user trying to import raw binary data into an
RSA context has to convert these to MPI's first which before passing them to the
import function, introducing an unnecessary copy of the data in memory. The
alternative would be to have another MPI-based import-function with
move-semantics, but this would be in contrast to the rest of the library's
interfaces.
Similarly, there are functions mbedtls_rsa_export and mbedtls_rsa_export_raw for
exporting the core RSA parameters, either as MPI's or in big-endian binary
format.
The main import/export functions deliberately do not include the additional
helper values DP, DQ and QP present in ASN.1-encoded RSA private keys. To
nonetheless be able to check whether given parameters DP, DQ and QP are in
accordance with a given RSA private key, the interface is extended by a function
mbedtls_rsa_check_opt (in line with mbedtls_rsa_check_privkey,
mbedtls_rsa_check_pubkey and mbedtls_rsa_check_pub_priv). Exporting the optional
parameters is taken care of by mbedtls_export_opt (currently MPI format only).
This commit adds convenience functions to the RSA module for computing a
complete RSA private key (with fields N, P, Q, D, E, DP, DQ, QP) from a subset
of core parameters, e.g. (N, D, E).
