Enable passing a number to "-v" in order to set the level of verbosity.
Print detailed test failure information at verbosity level 1 or higher.
Display summary messages at the verbosity level 2 or higher. Print
detailed test information at verbosity level 3 or higher, whether the
test failed or not. This enables a more readable output style that
includes detailed failure information when a failure occurs.
This commit fixes issue #1212 related to platform-specific entropy
polling in an syscall-emulated environment.
Previously, the implementation of the entropy gathering function
`mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` for linux machines used the
following logic to determine how to obtain entropy from the kernel:
1. If the getrandom() system call identifier SYS_getrandom is present and
the kernel version is 3.17 or higher, use syscall( SYS_getrandom, ... )
2. Otherwise, fall back to reading from /dev/random.
There are two issues with this:
1. Portability:
When cross-compiling the code for a different
architecture and running it through system call
emulation in qemu, qemu reports the host kernel
version through uname but, as of v.2.5.0,
doesn't support emulating the getrandom() syscall.
This leads to `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()`
failing even though reading from /dev/random would
have worked.
2. Style:
Extracting the linux kernel version from
the output of `uname` is slightly tedious.
This commit fixes both by implementing the suggestion in #1212:
- It removes the kernel-version detection through uname().
- Instead, it checks whether `syscall( SYS_getrandom, ... )`
fails with errno set to ENOSYS indicating an unknown system call.
If so, it falls through to trying to read from /dev/random.
Fixes#1212.
Use `( x >> y ) & z` instead of `x >> y & z`. Both are equivalent
by operator precedence, but the former is more readable and the
commonly used idiom in the library.
stdio.h was being included both conditionally if MBEDTLS_FS_IO was
defined, and also unconditionally, which made at least one of them
redundant.
This change removes the unconditional inclusion of stdio.h and makes it
conditional on MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C.
Context: This commit makes a change to mbedtls_pk_parse_key() which
is responsible for parsing of private keys. The function doesn't know
the key format in advance (PEM vs. DER, encrypted vs. unencrypted) and
tries them one by one, resetting the PK context in between.
Issue: The previous code resets the PK context through a call to
mbedtls_pk_free() along, lacking the accompanying mbedtls_pk_init()
call. Practically, this is not an issue because functionally
mbedtls_pk_free() + mbedtls_pk_init() is equivalent to mbedtls_pk_free()
with the current implementation of these functions, but strictly
speaking it's nonetheless a violation of the API semantics according
to which xxx_free() functions leave a context in uninitialized state.
(yet not entirely random, because xxx_free() functions must be idempotent,
so they cannot just fill the context they operate on with garbage).
Change: The commit adds calls to mbedtls_pk_init() after those calls
to mbedtls_pk_free() within mbedtls_pk_parse_key() after which the
PK context might still be used.
When a random number is generated for the Miller-Rabin primality test,
if the bit length of the random number is larger than the number being
tested, the random number is shifted right to have the same bit length.
This introduces bias, as the random number is now guaranteed to be
larger than 2^(bit length-1).
Changing this to instead zero all bits higher than the tested numbers
bit length will remove this bias and keep the random number being
uniformly generated.
Primality tests have to deal with different distribution when generating
primes and when validating primes.
These new tests are testing if mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() is working
properly in the latter setting.
The new tests involve pseudoprimes with maximum number of
non-witnesses. The non-witnesses were generated by printing them
from mpi_miller_rabin(). The pseudoprimes were generated by the
following function:
void gen_monier( mbedtls_mpi* res, int nbits )
{
mbedtls_mpi p_2x_plus_1, p_4x_plus_1, x, tmp;
mbedtls_mpi_init( &p_2x_plus_1 );
mbedtls_mpi_init( &p_4x_plus_1 );
mbedtls_mpi_init( &x ); mbedtls_mpi_init( &tmp );
do
{
mbedtls_mpi_gen_prime( &p_2x_plus_1, nbits >> 1, 0,
rnd_std_rand, NULL );
mbedtls_mpi_sub_int( &x, &p_2x_plus_1, 1 );
mbedtls_mpi_div_int( &x, &tmp, &x, 2 );
if( mbedtls_mpi_get_bit( &x, 0 ) == 0 )
continue;
mbedtls_mpi_mul_int( &p_4x_plus_1, &x, 4 );
mbedtls_mpi_add_int( &p_4x_plus_1, &p_4x_plus_1, 1 );
if( mbedtls_mpi_is_prime( &p_4x_plus_1, rnd_std_rand,
NULL ) == 0 )
break;
} while( 1 );
mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi( res, &p_2x_plus_1, &p_4x_plus_1 );
}
When MBEDTLS_MEMORY_BUFFER_ALLOC_C was defined, the sample ssl_server2.c was
using its own memory buffer for memory allocated by the library. The memory
used wasn't obvious, so this adds a macro for the memory buffer allocated to
make the allocated memory size more obvious and hence easier to configure.
Newer features in the library have increased the overall RAM usage of the
library, when all features are enabled. ssl_server2.c, with all features enabled
was running out of memory for the ssl-opt.sh test 'Authentication: client
max_int chain, server required'.
This commit increases the memory buffer allocation for ssl_server2.c to allow
the test to work with all features enabled.
This commit changes the behavior of the record decryption routine
`ssl_decrypt_buf()` in the following situation:
1. A CBC ciphersuite with Encrypt-then-MAC is used.
2. A record with valid MAC but invalid CBC padding is received.
In this situation, the previous code would not raise and error but
instead forward the decrypted packet, including the wrong padding,
to the user.
This commit changes this behavior to return the error
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INVALID_MAC instead.
While erroneous, the previous behavior does not constitute a
security flaw since it can only happen for properly authenticated
records, that is, if the peer makes a mistake while preparing the
padded plaintext.
This commit duplicates the public function mbedtls_asn1_find_named_data()
defined in library/asn1parse.c within library/asn1write.c in order to
avoid a dependency of the ASN.1 writing module on the ASN.1 parsing module.
The duplication is unproblematic from a semantic and an efficiency
perspective becasue it is just a short list traversal that doesn't
actually do any ASN.1 parsing.
Previously, mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() was unconditionally declared
in `pkcs5.h` but defined as a stub returning
`MBEDTLS_ERR_PKCS5_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE` in case
MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C was not defined.
In line with the previous commits, this commit removes declaration
and definition from both `pkcs5.h` and `pkcs5.c` in case
MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is not defined.
This commit ensures that buffers holding fragmented or
handshake messages get zeroized before they are freed
when the respective handshake message is no longer needed.
Previously, the handshake message content would leak on
the heap.
This commit replaces multiple `memset()` calls in the example
programs aes/aescrypt2.c and aes/crypt_and_hash.c by calls to
the reliable zeroization function `mbedtls_zeroize()`.
While not a security issue because the code is in the example
programs, it's bad practice and should be fixed.
The code assumed that `int x = - (unsigned) u` with 0 <= u < INT_MAX
sets `x` to the negative of u, but actually this calculates
(UINT_MAX - u) and then converts this value to int, which overflows.
Cast to int before applying the unary minus operator to guarantee the
desired behavior.
The code was making two unsequenced reads from volatile locations.
This is undefined behavior. It was probably harmless because we didn't
care in what order the reads happened and the reads were from ordinary
memory, but UB is UB and IAR8 complained.
The input distribution to primality testing functions is completely
different when used for generating primes and when for validating
primes. The constants used in the library are geared towards the prime
generation use case and are weak when used for validation. (Maliciously
constructed composite numbers can pass the test with high probability)
The mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() function is in the public API and although it
is not documented, it is reasonable to assume that the primary use case
is validating primes. The RSA module too uses it for validating key
material.
