So far, there were the following CRT verification functions:
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()` -- no profile, no restartable ECC
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` -- profile, no restartable ECC
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` -- profile, restartable ECC
all publicly declared and offering increasing functionality.
On the implementation-side,
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()` resolves to
a call to `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` setting
the profile to `NULL`, and
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()`
resolves to a call to ``mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()`
setting the ECC restart context to NULL.
This commit adds two more functions to this zoo:
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()`
- `x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()`
Here, `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()` is similar to
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` but uses a CA callback
instead of a static CA list, and no restart context.
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` is similar to
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` but allows to either use
a static list of trusted CAs _or_ a trusted CA callback.
On the implementation-side,
- the body of `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` is moved to
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()`, and the new version of
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` just resolves to
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` with the trusted CA callback
set to NULL.
- The new function `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()`
forward to `x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` with the restart
context set to `NULL`.
There's no change to the implementation yet, and in particular,
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()` isn't yet usable.

all.sh: Generate seedfile for crypto submodule tests
Update crypto submodule to test with private headers
tests: Use globbing in test suite exclusion list
Update crypto submodule to Mbed Crypto development
tests: Test crypto via the crypto submodule
Update the crypto submodule to the top of the Mbed Crypto development
branch. This brings in a version of Mbed Crypto that enables building
Mbed Crypto tests that depend on private headers, like
'psa_crypto_invasive.h'.
This also requires updating our config.h to include new configuration
options added to Mbed Crypto. MBEDTLS_PSA_ITS_FILE_C replaces
MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STORAGE_FILE_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STORAGE_ITS_C.
MBEDTLS_PSA_INJECT_ENTROPY replaces MBEDTLS_PSA_HAS_ITS_IO.
MBEDTLS_PSA_HAS_ITS_IO is not really useful since it doesn't actually
enable anything except the entropy seed file support, which only
requires the ITS interface and not a native implemetation. Remove it.
Since there is now a single storage backend, we don't need a backend
interface. Make the functions that were declared in
psa_crypto_storage_backend.h and are now both defined and used in
psa_crypto_storage.c static, except for psa_is_key_present_in_storage
which is used by the gray-box tests and is now declared in
psa_crypto_storage.h.
Since the ITS API has stabilized and we don't plan to make use of more
than ITS, we don't need an abstraction layer between key storage and
key storage over ITS. Merge the ITS code into the generic storage
module.
Now that we have ITS over files, we no longer need a direct backend
for key storage over files. Remove psa_crypto_storage_file and its
tests.
Switch MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STORAGE_ITS_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_ITS_FILE_C on
by default. This preserves functionality and test coverage in the
default configuration, but forgets any key previously stored using the
file backend.
Merge storage_common.h and internal_trusted_storage.h into a single
file for convenience.
Remove #include of <psa/error.h> which crypto doesn't have yet and
include <psa/crypto_types.h> and <psa/crypto_values.h> instead.
Drop __cplusplus support which we don't need.

The ecp_get_type function comes handy in higher level modules and tests
as well. It is not inline anymore, to enable alternative implementations
to implement it for themselves.
mbedtls_ecp_read_key() module returned without an error even when
importing keys corresponding to the requested group was not
implemented.
We change this and return an error when the requested group is not
supported and make the remaining import/export functions more robust.
If we don't need to store the peer's CRT chain permanently, we may
free it immediately after verifying it. Moreover, since we parse the
CRT chain in-place from the input buffer in this case, pointers from
the CRT structure remain valid after freeing the structure, and we
use that to extract the digest and pubkey from the CRT after freeing
the structure.
It is used in `mbedtls_ssl_session_free()` under
`MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_PARSE_C`, but defined only if
`MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE__WITH_CERT__ENABLED`.
Issue #2422 tracks the use of
`MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE__WITH_CERT_ENABLED` instead of
`MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_PARSE_C` for code and fields
related to CRT-based ciphersuites.
The server expects a CertificateVerify message only if it has
previously received a Certificate from the client.
So far, this was detected by looking at the `peer_cert` field
in the current session. Preparing to remove the latter, this
commit changes this to instead determine the presence of a peer
certificate by checking the new `peer_cert_digest` pointer.
We must dispatch between the peer's public key stored as part of
the peer's CRT in the current session structure (situation until
now, and future behaviour if MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE is
enabled), and the sole public key stored in the handshake structure
(new, if MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE is disabled).

This commit modifies `mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()` to store a
copy of the peer's public key after parsing and verifying the peer's
CRT chain.
So far, this leads to heavy memory duplication: We have the CRT chain
in the I/O buffer, then parse (and, thereby, copy) it to a
`mbedtls_x509_crt` structure, and then make another copy of the
peer's public key, plus the overhead from the MPI and ECP structures.
This inefficiency will soon go away to a significant extend, because:
- Another PR adds functionality to parse CRTs without taking
ownership of the input buffers. Applying this here will allow
parsing and verifying the peer's chain without making an additional
raw copy. The overhead reduces to the size of `mbedtls_x509_crt`,
the public key, and the DN structures referenced in the CRT.
- Once copyless parsing is in place and the removal of the peer CRT
is fully implemented, we can extract the public key bounds from
the parsed certificate and then free the entire chain before
parsing the public key again. This means that we never store
the parsed public key twice at the same time.
When removing the (session-local) copy of the peer's CRT chain, we must
keep a handshake-local copy of the peer's public key, as (naturally) every
key exchange will make use of that public key at some point to verify that
the peer actually owns the corresponding private key (e.g., verify signatures
from ServerKeyExchange or CertificateVerify, or encrypt a PMS in a RSA-based
exchange, or extract static (EC)DH parameters).
This commit adds a PK context field `peer_pubkey` to the handshake parameter
structure `mbedtls_handshake_params_init()` and adapts the init and free
functions accordingly. It does not yet make actual use of the new field.
This commit adds an ASN.1 buffer field `pk_raw` to `mbedtls_x509_crt`
which stores the bounds of the raw public key data within an X.509 CRT.
This will be useful in subsequent commits to extract the peer's public
key from its certificate chain.
This commit changes the format of session tickets to include
the digest of the peer's CRT if MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE
is disabled.
This commit does not yet remove the peer CRT itself.
`mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()` parses the peer's certificate chain
directly into the `peer_cert` field of the `mbedtls_ssl_session`
structure being established. To allow to optionally remove this field
from the session structure, this commit changes this to parse the peer's
chain into a local variable instead first, which can then either be freed
after CRT verification - in case the chain should not be stored - or
mapped to the `peer_cert` if it should be kept. For now, only the latter
is implemented.
mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate() will fail if a ciphersuite requires
a certificate, but none is provided. While it is sensible to double-
check this, failure should be reported as an internal error and not
as an unexpected message.
A subsequent commit will need this function in the session ticket
and session cache implementations. As the latter are server-side,
this commit also removes the MBEDTLS_SSL_CLI_C guard.
For now, the function is declared in ssl_internal.h and hence not
part of the public API.
This commit modifies the helper `ssl_parse_certificate_chain()` to
accep any target X.509 CRT chain instead of hardcoding it to
`session_negotiate->peer_cert`. This increases modularity and paves
the way towards removing `mbedtls_ssl_session::peer_cert`.
This commit simplifies the client-side code for outgoing CertificateVerify
messages, and server-side code for outgoing CertificateRequest messages and
incoming CertificateVerify messages, through the use of the macro
`MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE__CERT_REQ_ALLOWED__ENABLED`
indicating whether a ciphersuite allowing CertificateRequest messages
is enabled in the configuration, as well as the helper function
`mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_cert_req_allowed()`
indicating whether a particular ciphersuite allows CertificateRequest
messages.
These were already used in the client-side code to simplify the
parsing functions for CertificateRequest messages.
This commit adds a helper function `ssl_parse_certificate_coordinate()`
which checks whether a `Certificate` message is expected from the peer.
The logic is the following:
- For ciphersuites which don't use server-side CRTs, no Certificate
message is expected (neither for the server, nor the client).
- On the server, no client certificate is expected in the following cases:
* The server server didn't request a Certificate, which is controlled
by the `authmode` setting.
* A RSA-PSK suite is used; this is the only suite using server CRTs
but not allowing client-side authentication.
This commit introduces a static helper function
`mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_uses_srv_cert()`
which determines whether a ciphersuite may make use of server-side CRTs.
This function is in turn uses in `mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()` to
skip certificate parsing for ciphersuites which don't involve CRTs.
Note: Ciphersuites not using server-side CRTs don't allow client-side CRTs
either, so it is safe to guard `mbedtls_ssl_{parse/write}_certificate()`
this way.
Note: Previously, the code uses a positive check over the suites
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_PSK
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_PSK
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDHE_PSK
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECJPAKE,
while now, it uses a negative check over `mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_uses_srv_cert()`,
which checks for the suites
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_RSA
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_RSA_PSK
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_RSA
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDH_RSA
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDHE_RSA
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDH_ECDSA
- MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECDHE_ECDSA
This is equivalent since, together, those are all ciphersuites.
Quoting ssl_ciphersuites.h:
```
typedef enum {
MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_NONE = 0,
MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_RSA,
MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_DHE_RSA,

```
The handler `mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()` for incoming `Certificate`
messages contains many branches updating the handshake state. For easier
reasoning about state evolution, this commit introduces a single code-path
updating the state machine at the end of `mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()`.
If an attempt for session resumption fails, the `session_negotiate` structure
might be partially filled, and in particular already contain a peer certificate
structure. This certificate structure needs to be freed before parsing the
certificate sent in the `Certificate` message.
This commit moves the code-path taking care of this from the helper
function `ssl_parse_certificate_chain()`, whose purpose should be parsing
only, to the top-level handler `mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()`.
The fact that we don't know the state of `ssl->session_negotiate` after
a failed attempt for session resumption is undesirable, and a separate
issue #2414 has been opened to improve on this.
This commit introduces a server-side static helper function
`ssl_srv_check_client_no_crt_notification()`, which checks if
the message we received during the incoming certificate state
notifies the server of the lack of certificate on the client.
For SSLv3, such a notification comes as a specific alert,
while for all other TLS versions, it comes as a `Certificate`
handshake message with an empty CRT list.
So far, we've used the `peer_cert` pointer to detect whether
we're parsing the first CRT, but that will soon be removed
if `MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE` is unset.
This commit introduces a helper function `ssl_clear_peer_cert()`
which frees all data related to the peer's certificate from an
`mbedtls_ssl_session` structure. Currently, this is the peer's
certificate itself, while eventually, it'll be its digest only.
After mitigating the 'triple handshake attack' by checking that
the peer's end-CRT didn't change during renegotation, the current
code avoids re-parsing the CRT by moving the CRT-pointer from the
old session to the new one. While efficient, this will no longer
work once only the hash of the peer's CRT is stored beyond the
handshake.
This commit removes the code-path moving the old CRT, and instead
frees the entire peer CRT chain from the initial handshake as soon
as the 'triple handshake attack' protection has completed.
Renamed the tests because they are explicitly testing Curve25519 and
nothing else. Improved test coverage, test documentation and extended
in-code documentation with a specific reference to the standard as well.
The library is able to perform computations and cryptographic schemes on
curves with x coordinate ladder representation. Here we add the
capability to export such points.
The function `mbedtls_mpi_write_binary()` writes big endian byte order,
but we need to be able to write little endian in some caseses. (For
example when handling keys corresponding to Montgomery curves.)
Used `echo xx | tac -rs ..` to transform the test data to little endian.
The private keys used in ECDH differ in the case of Weierstrass and
Montgomery curves. They have different constraints, the former is based
on big endian, the latter little endian byte order. The fundamental
approach is different too:
- Weierstrass keys have to be in the right interval, otherwise they are
rejected.
- Any byte array of the right size is a valid Montgomery key and it
needs to be masked before interpreting it as a number.
Historically it was sufficient to use mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() to read
private keys, but as a preparation to improve support for Montgomery
curves we add mbedtls_ecp_read_key() to enable uniform treatment of EC
keys.
For the masking the `mbedtls_mpi_set_bit()` function is used. This is
suboptimal but seems to provide the best trade-off at this time.
Alternatives considered:
- Making a copy of the input buffer (less efficient)
- removing the `const` constraint from the input buffer (breaks the api
and makes it less user friendly)
- applying the mask directly to the limbs (violates the api between the
modules and creates and unwanted dependency)
The library is able to perform computations and cryptographic schemes on
curves with x coordinate ladder representation. Here we add the
capability to import such points.
The function `mbedtls_mpi_read_binary()` expects big endian byte order,
but we need to be able to read from little endian in some caseses. (For
example when handling keys corresponding to Montgomery curves.)
Used `echo xx | tac -rs .. | tr [a-z] [A-Z]` to transform the test data
to little endian and `echo "ibase=16;xx" | bc` to convert to decimal.
Define MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT in config.h instead of hard-coding
this in ecdh.h so that its absence can be tested. Document it as
experimental so that we reserve the right to change it in the future.
If mbedtls_ecdh_get_params is called with keys belonging to
different groups, make it return an error the second time, rather than
silently interpret the first key as being on the second curve.
This makes the non-regression test added by the previous commit pass.
In places where we detect a context is in a bad state and there is no
sensitive data to clear, simply return PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE and don't
abort on behalf of the application. The application will choose what to
do when it gets a bad state error.
The motivation for this change is that an application should decide what
to do when it misuses the API and encounters a PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE
error. The library should not attempt to abort on behalf of the
application, as that may not be the correct thing to do in all
circumstances.
Calling psa_*_setup() twice on a MAC, cipher, or hash context should
result in a PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE error because the operation has already
been set up.
Fixes#10
When building for the PSA crypto service (defined(PSA_CRYPTO_SECURE)),
define psa_key_owner_id_t as int32_t, which is how a PSA platform
encodes partition identity. Note that this only takes effect when the
build option MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER is active.
Support this configuration in the ITS backend.
Declare the owner as psa_key_owner_id_t, of which an implementation
must be provided separately.
Make this a configuration option
MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER, to make the conditional
compilation flow easier to follow. Declare it in config.h to
pacify check_names.sh.
Support for a specific implementation of psa_key_owner_id_t in storage
backends will come in a subsequent commit.
Differentiate between _key identifiers_, which are always `uint32_t`,
and _key file identifiers_, which are platform-dependent. Normally,
the two are the same.
In `psa/crypto_platform.h`, define `psa_app_key_id_t` (which is always
32 bits, the standard key identifier type) and
`psa_key_file_id_t` (which will be different in some service builds).
A subsequent commit will introduce a platform where the two are different.
It would make sense for the function declarations in `psa/crypto.h` to
use `psa_key_file_id_t`. However this file is currently part of the
PSA Crypto API specification, so it must stick to the standard type
`psa_key_id_t`. Hence, as long as the specification and Mbed Crypto
are not separate, use the implementation-specific file
`psa/crypto_platform.h` to define `psa_key_id_t` as `psa_key_file_id_t`.
In the library, systematically use `psa_key_file_id_t`.

PSA_MAX_PERSISTENT_KEY_IDENTIFIER was actually one plus the maximum
key identifier. Change it to be the maximum value, and change the code
that uses it accordingly.
There is no semantic change here (the maximum value hasn't changed).
This commit only makes the implementation clearer.
This commit improves hygiene and formatting of macro definitions
throughout the library. Specifically:
- It adds brackets around parameters to avoid unintended
interpretation of arguments, e.g. due to operator precedence.
- It adds uses of the `do { ... } while( 0 )` idiom for macros that
can be used as commands.
Check generator validity (i.e. that alg has been initialized) before
allowing reads from the generator or allowing reads of the generator's
capacity.
This aligns our implementation with the documented error code behavior
in our crypto.h and the PSA Crypto API.
- Populate the ECDH private key slot with a fresh private EC key
designated for the correct algorithm.
- Export the public part of the ECDH private key from PSA and
reformat it to suite the format of the ClientKeyExchange message.
- Perform the PSA-based ECDH key agreement and store the result
as the premaster secret for the connection.
- Reformat the server's ECDH public key to make it suitable
for the PSA key agreement API. Currently, the key agreement
API needs a full SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure, while the
TLS ServerKeyExchange message only contains a ECPoint structure.
PSA spec now defines more generic PSA storage types instead of the ITS
specific ones. This is necessary in order to integrate with
the newer implementation of PSA ITS landing in Mbed OS soon.
Changes include the following:
- psa_status_t replaces psa_its_status_t
- psa_storage_info_t replaces psa_its_info_t
- psa_storage_uid_t replaces psa_its_uid_t
When `MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C` is not enabled, our PSA Crypto implementation
depends on the standard C library for functions like snprintf() and
exit(). However, our implementation was not including the proper header
files nor redefining all `mbedtls_*` symbols properly to ensure
successful builds without MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C. Add the necessary header
files and macro definitions to our PSA Crypto implementation.
Mbed TLS has deprecated a few module specific error codes in favor of

Enable handling of zero-length null output in PKCS1 v1.5 decryption.
Prevent undefined behavior by avoiding a memcpy() to zero-length null
output buffers.
In mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_oaep_encrypt and
mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_pkcs1_v15_encrypt, if the input length is 0 (which
is unusual and mostly useless, but permitted) then it is fine for the
input pointer to be NULL. Don't return an error in this case.
When `input` is NULL, `memcpy( p, input, ilen )` has undefined behavior
even if `ilen` is zero. So skip the `memcpy` call in this case.
Likewise, in `mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_oaep_decrypt`, skip the `memcpy` call if
`*olen` is zero.
Context: During a handshake, the SSL/TLS handshake logic constructs
an instance of ::mbedtls_ssl_session representing the SSL session
being established. This structure contains information such as the
session's master secret, the peer certificate, or the session ticket
issues by the server (if applicable).
During a renegotiation, the new session is constructed aside the existing
one and destroys and replaces the latter only when the renegotiation is
complete. While conceptually clear, this means that during the renegotiation,
large pieces of information such as the peer's CRT or the session ticket
exist twice in memory, even though the original versions are removed
eventually.
This commit removes the simultaneous presence of two peer CRT chains
in memory during renegotiation, in the following way:
- Unlike in the case of SessionTickets handled in the previous commit,
we cannot simply free the peer's CRT chain from the previous handshake
before parsing the new one, as we need to verify that the peer's end-CRT
hasn't changed to mitigate the 'Triple Handshake Attack'.
- Instead, we perform a binary comparison of the original peer end-CRT
with the one presented during renegotiation, and if it succeeds, we
avoid re-parsing CRT by moving the corresponding CRT pointer from the
old to the new session structure.
- The remaining CRTs in the peer's chain are not affected by the triple
handshake attack protection, and for them we may employ the canonical
approach of freeing them before parsing the remainder of the new chain.
Note that this commit intends to not change any observable behavior
of the stack. In particular:
- The peer's CRT chain is still verified during renegotiation.
- The tail of the peer's CRT chain may change during renegotiation.

This commit starts removing this memory inefficiency by freeing the old
session's SessionTicket before the one for the new session is allocated.
Context:
The existing API `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()` for parsing DER
encoded X.509 CRTs unconditionally makes creates a copy of the
input buffer in RAM. While this comes at the benefit of easy use,
-- specifically: allowing the user to free or re-use the input
buffer right after the call -- it creates a significant memory
overhead, as the CRT is duplicated in memory (at least temporarily).
This might not be tolerable a resource constrained device.
As a remedy, this commit adds a new X.509 API call
`mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der_nocopy()`
which has the same signature as `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()`
and almost the same semantics, with one difference: The input
buffer must persist and be unmodified for the lifetime of the
established instance of `mbedtls_x509_crt`, that is, until
`mbedtls_x509_crt_free()` is called.
Resolve incompatibilties in the RSA module where changes made for
parameter validation prevent Mbed Crypto from working. Mbed Crypto
depends on being able to pass zero-length buffers that are NULL to RSA
encryption functions.
This reverts commit 2f660d047d.
After merging the latest RSA implementation from Mbed TLS, we have a
regression in that we no longer properly handle zero-length null output
in PKCS1 v1.5 decryption. Prevent undefined behavior by avoiding a
memcpy() to zero-length null output buffers.
Merge a development version of Mbed TLS 2.16.0 that doesn't have
parameter validation into development.
The following conflicts were resolved:
- Update ChangeLog to include release notes merged from development so
far, with a version of "2.14.0+01b34fb316a5" and release date of
"xxxx-xx-xx" to show this is not a released version, but instead a
snapshot of the development branch equivalent to version of the 2.14.0
with additional commits from the mbedtls/development branch up through
01b34fb316 included. Entries added for unreleased versions of Mbed
Crypto remain at the top of the file for Mbed TLS 2.xx.x.
- Replace the Mbed Crypto version of
mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_pkcs1_v15_decrypt() with the version from Mbed TLS
which fixes timing variations and memory access variations that could
lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle attack. This will
prevent using psa_asymmetric_decrypt() with zero-length output buffers
until a follow up commit is made to restore this capability.
- In ssl_srv.c, include changes for both the new ECDH interface and
opaque PSK as already added to development previously.
Context: There are two public key writing functions in Mbed TLS. First,
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey(), which exports a public key in the form of a
SubjectPublicKey structure containing the raw keying material
(for example, EC point coordinates for an EC public key, without
reference to the underlying curve). Secondly, mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der(),
which exports a public key in the form of a SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure,
wrapping the SubjectPublicKey structure by additional information
identifying the type of public key (and for ECC, e.g., it'd also contain
the ECC group identifier). The implementation of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der()
calls mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() first and then adds the corresponding
algorithm identifier wrapper.
Both of these functions need to be provided for PSA-based opaque PK contexts,
based on PSA's public key export function.
Previously, PSA used the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure as its export format,
so mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() could be easily implemented, while
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() would need to trim the output of the PSA export.
The previous implementation of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() is not quite right
because it calls PSA export doesn't do any trimming, hence exporting the large
SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure instead of the small SubjectPublicKey.
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der(), in turn, immediately returns after calling
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey(), hence also returning the SubjectPublicKeyInfo
structure, which is correct.
By now, the PSA public key export format has changed to the smaller
SubjectPublicKey structure. This means that, now, mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey()
can be implemented by just calling the PSA export, and that
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() needs to add the algorithm information around
it, just as in the other types of PK contexts. While not correct for the
old format, the existing code for mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() is therefore
correct for the new PSA public key format, and needs no change apart from
the missing pointer shift in the last commit.
The implementation of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() needs a special code
path for PSA-based opaque PK contexts, as the PK context only contains
the PSA key handle, and the PSA API needs to be used to extract the
underlying EC curve to be able to write the AlgorithmParameter structure
that's part of the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure.
That's what this commit does, (hopefully) making both
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() and mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() export
the correctly formatted public key based on the new PSA public key format.

In mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod(), the limit check on wsize is never true when
MBEDTLS_MPI_WINDOW_SIZE is at least 6. Wrap in a preprocessor guard

Additional changes to temporarily enable running tests:
ssl_srv.c and test_suite_ecdh use mbedtls_ecp_group_load instead of
mbedtls_ecdh_setup
test_suite_ctr_drbg uses mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update instead of
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret
Previously, PSA used SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures to serialize EC public keys.
This has recently been changed to using ECPoint structures instead, but the wrapper
making PSA ECDSA verification available through Mbed TLS' PK API hasn't yet been
adapted accordingly - which is what this commit does.
Luckily, Mbed TLS' PK API offers two functions mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey()
and mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der(), the latter exporting a SubjectPublicKeyInfo
structure and the former exporting an ECPoint structure in case of EC public
keys. For the adaptation of the ECDSA wrapper ecdsa_verify_wrap() it is therefore
sufficient to use mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() instead of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der().

The file oid.c had conditional inclusion of functions based on a config.h
define that belongs to X.509, which is backwards. For now, just include those
functions unconditionally and rely on the linker to garbage-collect them if
not used.
In the longer term X.509-specific functions are likely to be removed from
libmbedcrypto, but at this step the goal is to preserve the API (and even ABI)
of libmbedcrypto for as long as possible while separating the source trees of
Mbed Crypto and Mbed TLS.
As agreed during the workshop, temporarily move definitions to oid.h even if
they might not semantically belong here, as a short-term measure allowing to
build libmbecrypto on its own (without X.509 files present in the source tree)
but still provide all the things Mbed TLS currently expects, and more
specifically preserve the API and ABI exposed by libmbedtls.
Remove extra status handling code from psa_import_key_into_slot(). This
helps save a tiny amount of code space, but mainly serves to improve the
readability of the code.
Move pk-using code to inside psa_import_rsa_key(). This aligns the shape
of psa_import_rsa_key() to match that of psa_import_ec_private_key() and
psa_import_ec_public_key().
Remove front matter from our EC key format, to make it just the contents
of an ECPoint as defined by SEC1 section 2.3.3.
As a consequence of the simplification, remove the restriction on not
being able to use an ECDH key with ECDSA. There is no longer any OID
specified when importing a key, so we can't reject importing of an ECDH
key for the purpose of ECDSA based on the OID.
Use the PSA-native status type in psa_key_agreement_ecdh() in
preparation for us calling PSA functions (and not just Mbed TLS
functions) and still being able to return a psa_status_t (without having
to translate it to a Mbed TLS error and then back again).
Remove pkcs-1 and rsaEncryption front matter from RSA public keys. Move
code that was shared between RSA and other key types (like EC keys) to
be used only with non-RSA keys.
New function psa_copy_key().
Conflicts:
* library/psa_crypto.c: trivial conflicts due to consecutive changes.
* tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto.data: the same code
was added on both sides, but with a conflict resolution on one side.
* tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto_metadata.function: the same code
was added on both sides, but with a conflict resolution on one side.
You can use PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH to build the algorithm value for a
hash-and-sign algorithm in a policy. Then the policy allows usage with
this hash-and-sign family with any hash.
Test that PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH-based policies allow a specific hash, but
not a different hash-and-sign family. Test that PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH is
not valid for operations, only in policies.
Remove the type and bits arguments to psa_allocate_key() and
psa_create_key(). They can be useful if the implementation wants to
know exactly how much space to allocate for the slot, but many
implementations (including ours) don't care, and it's possible to work
around their lack by deferring size-dependent actions to the time when
the key material is created. They are a burden to applications and
make the API more complex, and the benefits aren't worth it.
Change the API and adapt the implementation, the units test and the
sample code accordingly.
Change the key derivation API to take inputs in multiple steps,
instead of a single one-site-fits-poorly function.
Conflicts:
* include/psa/crypto.h: merge independent changes in the documentation
of psa_key_agreement (public_key from the work on public key formats
vs general description and other parameters in the work on key derivation).
* tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto.data: update the key agreement
tests from the work on key derivation to the format from the work on
public key formats.
* tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto_metadata.function: reconcile the
addition of unrelated ALG_IS_xxx macros
Get rid of "key selection" algorithms (of which there was only one:
raw key selection).
Encode key agreement by combining a raw key agreement with a KDF,
rather than passing the KDF as an argument of a key agreement macro.
Use separate step types for a KDF secret and for the private key in a
key agreement.
Determine which key type is allowed from the step type, independently
of the KDF.
Forbid raw inputs for certain steps. They definitely should be
forbidden for asymmetric keys, which are structured. Also forbid them
for KDF secrets: the secrets are supposed to be keys, even if they're
unstructured.
Change the import/export format of DSA and DH public keys to use just
the key data, without a SubjectPublicKeyInfo wrapping.
Add an API to set and query domain parameters for DSA and DH keys.
DSA and static DH need extra domain parameters. Instead of passing these
in with the keys themselves, add get and set functions to set and
retrieve this information about keys.
Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() that removes
trailing 0s at the end of DER encoded bitstrings. The function is
implemented according to Hanno Becker's suggestions.
This commit also changes the functions x509write_crt_set_ns_cert_type
and crt_set_key_usage to call the new function as the use named
bitstrings instead of the regular bitstrings.
When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SPM is defined, the code is being built for SPM (Secure Partition Manager)
integration which separates the code into two parts: NSPE (Non-Secure Processing Environment) and SPE
(Secure Processing Environment). When building for the SPE, an additional header file should be included.

Previously we weren't initializing the freshly allocated ECP keypair
when importing private EC keys. This didn't seem to cause problems, at
least according to our current test coverage, but it's better to ensure
we don't have a partially initialized object by explicitly initializing
the keypair.
Return the error code if failed, instead of returning value `1`.
If not failed, return the call of the underlying function,
in `mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey()`.
Use `cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Asan` rather than manually setting
`-fsanitize=address`. This lets cmake determine the necessary compiler
and linker flags.
With UNSAFE_BUILD on, force -Wno-error. This is necessary to build
with MBEDTLS_TEST_NULL_ENTROPY.

Add new initializers for key policies and use them in our docs, example
programs, tests, and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers
due to their straightforwardness.
mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() calls memcpy() with the source pointer being
the source pointer passed to mbedtls_mpi_read_binary(), the latter may
be NULL if the buffer length is 0 (and this happens e.g. in the ECJPAKE
test suite). The behavior of memcpy(), in contrast, is undefined when
called with NULL source buffer, even if the length of the copy operation
is 0.
This commit fixes this by explicitly checking that the source pointer is
not NULL before calling memcpy(), and skipping the call otherwise.
Context: The function `mbedtls_mpi_fill_random()` uses a temporary stack
buffer to hold the random data before reading it into the target MPI.
Problem: This is inefficient both computationally and memory-wise.
Memory-wise, it may lead to a stack overflow on constrained devices with
limited stack.
Fix: This commit introduces the following changes to get rid of the
temporary stack buffer entirely:
1. It modifies the call to the PRNG to output the random data directly
into the target MPI's data buffer.
This alone, however, constitutes a change of observable behaviour:
The previous implementation guaranteed to interpret the bytes emitted by
the PRNG in a big-endian fashion, while rerouting the PRNG output into the
target MPI's limb array leads to an interpretation that depends on the
endianness of the host machine.
As a remedy, the following change is applied, too:
2. Reorder the bytes emitted from the PRNG within the target MPI's
data buffer to ensure big-endian semantics.
Luckily, the byte reordering was already implemented as part of
`mbedtls_mpi_read_binary()`, so:
3. Extract bigendian-to-host byte reordering from
`mbedtls_mpi_read_binary()` to a separate internal function
`mpi_bigendian_to_host()` to be used by `mbedtls_mpi_read_binary()`
and `mbedtls_mpi_fill_random()`.
The calls to cipher_finish didn't actually do anything:
- the cipher mode is always ECB
- in that case cipher_finish() only sets *olen to zero, and returns either 0
or an error depending on whether there was pending data
- olen is a local variable in the caller, so setting it to zero right before
returning is not essential
- the return value of cipher_finis() was not checked by the caller so that's
not useful either
- the cipher layer does not have ALT implementations so the behaviour
described above is unconditional on ALT implementations (in particular,
cipher_finish() can't be useful to hardware as (with ECB) it doesn't call any
functions from lower-level modules that could release resources for example)
Since the calls are causing issues with parameter validation, and were no
serving any functional purpose, it's simpler to just remove them.
Somehow, mbedtls_sha256_ret() is defined even if MBEDTLS_SHA256_ALT
is set, and it is using SHA256_VALIDATE_RET. The documentation should
be enhanced to indicate that MBEDTLS_SHA256_ALT does _not_ replace
the entire module, but only the core SHA-256 functions.
Somehow, mbedtls_sha512_ret() is defined even if MBEDTLS_SHA512_ALT
is set, and it is using SHA512_VALIDATE_RET. The documentation should
be enhanced to indicate that MBEDTLS_SHA512_ALT does _not_ replace
the entire module, but only the core SHA-512 functions.
Somehow, mbedtls_sha1_ret() is defined even if MBEDTLS_SHA1_ALT
is set, and it is using SHA1_VALIDATE_RET. The documentation should
be enhanced to indicate that MBEDTLS_SHA1_ALT does _not_ replace
the entire module, but only the core SHA-1 functions.
Document when a context must be initialized or not, when it must be
set up or not, and whether it needs a private key or a public key will
do.
The implementation is sometimes more liberal than the documentation,
accepting a non-set-up context as a context that can't perform the
requested information. This preserves backward compatibility.
The MPI_VALIDATE_RET() macro cannot be used for parameter
validation of mbedtls_mpi_lsb() because this function returns
a size_t.
Use the underlying MBEDTLS_INTERNAL_VALIDATE_RET() insteaed,
returning 0 on failure.
Also, add a test for this behaviour.
A 0-length buffer for the key is a legitimate edge case. Ensure that
it works, even with buf=NULL. Document the key and keylen parameters.
There are already test cases for parsing an empty buffer. A subsequent
commit will add tests for writing to an empty buffer.
Add checks for null pointers under MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS.
In functions that perform operations with a context, only check if the
context pointer is non-null under MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS. In the default
configuration, unconditionally dereference the context pointer.
In functions that query a context, support NULL as a
pointer-to-context argument, and return the same value as for a
context which has been initialized but not set up.
- The validity of the input and output parameters is checked by
parameter validation.
- A PRNG is required in public mode only (even though it's also
recommended in private mode), so move the check to the
corresponding branch.
The check was already done later when calling ECB, (as evidenced by the tests
passing, which have a call with data_unit set to NULL), but it's more readable
to have it here too, and more helpful when debugging.
