Mbed TLS ChangeLog (Sorted per branch, date)
= Mbed TLS x.x.x branch released xxxx-xx-xx
API changes
* Mbed TLS 3.4 introduced support for omitting the built-in implementation
of ECDSA and/or EC J-PAKE when those are provided by a driver. However,
their was a flaw in the logic checking if the built-in implementation, in
that if failed to check if all the relevant curves were supported by the
accelerator. As a result, it was possible to declare no curves as
accelerated and still have the built-in implementation compiled out.
Starting with this release, it is necessary to declare which curves are
accelerated (using MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_ECC_xxx macros), or they will be
considered not accelerated, and the built-in implementation of the curves
and any algorithm possible using them will be included in the build.
* Add new millisecond time type `mbedtls_ms_time_t` and `mbedtls_ms_time()`
function, needed for TLS 1.3 ticket lifetimes. Alternative implementations
can be created using an ALT interface.
Requirement changes
* Officially require Python 3.8 now that earlier versions are out of support.
* Minimum required Windows version is now Windows Vista, or
Windows Server 2008.
New deprecations
* PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR and
MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR, where xxx is either ECC or RSA,
are now being deprecated in favor of PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy. Here yyy can be: BASIC,
IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE. The goal is to have a finer detail about
the capabilities of the PSA side for either key.
* MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX is deprecated in favor of
MBEDTLS_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH (if you intended what the name suggests:
maximum size of any supported block cipher) or the new name
MBEDTLS_CMAC_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE (if you intended the actual semantics:
maximum size of a block cipher supported by the CMAC module).
* mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() and mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() functions are now
deprecated in favor of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() and
mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext() as they offer more security by checking
for overflow of the output buffer and reporting the actual length
of the output.
Features
* All modules that use hashes or HMAC can now take advantage of PSA Crypto
drivers when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is enabled and psa_crypto_init() has
been called. Previously (in 3.3), this was restricted to a few modules,
and only in builds where MBEDTLS_MD_C was disabled; in particular the
entropy module was not covered which meant an external RNG had to be
provided - these limitations are lifted in this version. A new set of
feature macros, MBEDTLS_MD_CAN_xxx, has been introduced that can be used
to check for availability of hash algorithms, regardless of whether
they're provided by a built-in implementation, a driver or both. See
docs/driver-only-builds.md.
* When a PSA driver for ECDH is present, it is now possible to disable
MBEDTLS_ECDH_C in the build in order to save code size. For TLS 1.2
key exchanges based on ECDH(E) to work, this requires
MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO. Restartable/interruptible ECDHE operations in
TLS 1.2 (ECDHE-ECDSA key exchange) are not supported in those builds yet,
as PSA does not have an API for restartable ECDH yet.
* When all of ECDH, ECDSA and EC J-PAKE are either disabled or provided by
a driver, it is possible to disable MBEDTLS_ECP_C (and MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C
if not required by another module) and still get support for ECC keys and
algorithms in PSA, with some limitations. See docs/driver-only-builds.txt
for details.
* Add parsing of directoryName subtype for subjectAltName extension in
x509 certificates.
* Add support for server-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled, the TLS server now selects TLS 1.2 or
TLS 1.3 depending on the capabilities and preferences of TLS clients.
Fixes #6867.
* X.509 hostname verification now supports IPAddress Subject Alternate Names.
* Add support for reading and writing X25519 and X448
public and private keys in RFC 8410 format using the existing PK APIs.
* When parsing X.509 certificates, support the extensions
SignatureKeyIdentifier and AuthorityKeyIdentifier.
* Don't include the PSA dispatch functions for PAKEs (psa_pake_setup() etc)
if no PAKE algorithms are requested
* Add support for the FFDH algorithm and DH key types in PSA, with
parameters from RFC 7919. This includes a built-in implementation based
on MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C, and a driver dispatch layer enabling alternative
implementations of FFDH through the driver entry points.
* It is now possible to generate certificates with SubjectAltNames.
Currently supported subtypes: DnsName, UniformResourceIdentifier,
IP address, OtherName, and DirectoryName, as defined in RFC 5280.
See mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_subject_alternative_name for
more information.
* X.509 hostname verification now partially supports URI Subject Alternate
Names. Only exact matching, without any normalization procedures
described in 7.4 of RFC5280, will result in a positive URI verification.
* Add function mbedtls_oid_from_numeric_string() to parse an OID from a
string to a DER-encoded mbedtls_asn1_buf.
* Add SHA-3 family hash functions.
* Add support to restrict AES to 128-bit keys in order to save code size.
A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AES_ONLY_128_BIT_KEY_LENGTH, can be
used to enable this feature.
* AES performance improvements. Uplift varies by platform,
toolchain, optimisation flags and mode.
Aarch64, gcc -Os and CCM, GCM and XTS benefit the most.
On Aarch64, uplift is typically around 20 - 110%.
When compiling with gcc -Os on Aarch64, AES-XTS improves
by 4.5x.
* Add support for PBKDF2-HMAC through the PSA API.
* New symbols PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy (where xxx is either ECC, RSA
or DH) were introduced in order to have finer accuracy in defining the
PSA capabilities for each key. These capabilities, named yyy above, can be
any of: BASIC, IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE.
- DERIVE is only available for ECC keys, not for RSA or DH ones.
- implementations are free to enable more than what it was strictly
requested. For example BASIC internally enables IMPORT and EXPORT
(useful for testing purposes), but this might change in the future.
* Add support for FFDH key exchange in TLS 1.3.
This is automatically enabled as soon as PSA_WANT_ALG_FFDH
and the ephemeral or psk-ephemeral key exchange mode are enabled.
By default, all groups are offered; the list of groups can be
configured using the existing API function mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups().
* Improve mbedtls_x509_time performance and reduce memory use.
* Reduce syscalls to time() during certificate verification.
* Allow MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE and MBEDTLS_USER_CONFIG_FILE to be set by
setting the CMake variable of the same name at configuration time.
* Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_cache_get_timeout()) to access
`mbedtls_ssl_cache_context.timeout`.
* Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_get_hostname()) to access
`mbedtls_ssl_context.hostname`.
* Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_conf_get_endpoint()) to access
`mbedtls_ssl_config.endpoint`.
* Support for "opaque" (PSA-held) ECC keys in the PK module has been
extended: it is now possible to use mbedtls_pk_write_key_der(),
mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(), and
mbedtls_pk_verify() with opaque ECC keys (provided the PSA attributes
allow it).
* The documentation of mbedtls_ecp_group now describes the optimized
representation of A for some curves. Fixes #8045.
* Add a possibility to generate CSR's with RCF822 and directoryName subtype
of subjectAltName extension in x509 certificates.
* Add support for PBKDF2-CMAC through the PSA API.
* New configuration option MBEDTLS_AES_USE_HARDWARE_ONLY introduced. When
using CPU-accelerated AES (e.g., Arm Crypto Extensions), this option
disables the plain C implementation and the run-time detection for the
CPU feature, which reduces code size and avoids the vulnerability of the
plain C implementation.
* Accept arbitrary AttributeType and AttributeValue in certificate
Distinguished Names using RFC 4514 syntax.
* Applications using ECC over secp256r1 through the PSA API can use a
new implementation with a much smaller footprint, but some minor
usage restrictions. See the documentation of the new configuration
option MBEDTLS_PSA_P256M_DRIVER_ENABLED for details.
Security
* Fix a case where potentially sensitive information held in memory would not
be completely zeroized during TLS 1.2 handshake, in both server and client
configurations.
* In configurations with ARIA or Camellia but not AES, the value of
MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX was 8, rather than 16 as the name might
suggest. This did not affect any library code, because this macro was
only used in relation with CMAC which does not support these ciphers.
This may affect application code that uses this macro.
* Developers using mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() should
review the size of the output buffer passed to this function, and note
that the output after decryption may include CBC padding. Consider moving
to the new functions mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext()
which checks for overflow of the output buffer and reports the actual
length of the output.
* Improve padding calculations in CBC decryption, NIST key unwrapping and
RSA OAEP decryption. With the previous implementation, some compilers
(notably recent versions of Clang and IAR) could produce non-constant
time code, which could allow a padding oracle attack if the attacker
has access to precise timing measurements.
* Updates to constant-time C code so that compilers are less likely to use
conditional instructions, which can have an observable difference in
timing. (Clang has been seen to do this.) Also introduce assembly
implementations for 32- and 64-bit Arm and for x86 and x86-64, which are
guaranteed not to use conditional instructions.
* Fix definition of MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE, which was too
small when MBEDTLS_SHA384_C was defined and MBEDTLS_SHA512_C was
undefined. Mbed TLS itself was unaffected by this, but user code
which used MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE could be affected. The only
release containing this bug was Mbed TLS 3.4.0.
* Fix a buffer overread when parsing short TLS application data records in
null-cipher cipher suites. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
* Fix a remotely exploitable heap buffer overflow in TLS handshake parsing.
In TLS 1.3, all configurations are affected except PSK-only ones, and
both clients and servers are affected.
In TLS 1.2, the affected configurations are those with
MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and ECDH enabled but DHM and RSA disabled,
and only servers are affected, not clients.
Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
Bugfix
* Fix proper sizing for PSA_EXPORT_[KEY_PAIR/PUBLIC_KEY]_MAX_SIZE and
PSA_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE buffers when at least one accelerated EC is bigger
than all built-in ones and RSA is disabled.
Resolves #6622.
* Add missing md.h includes to some of the external programs from
the programs directory. Without this, even though the configuration
was sufficient for a particular program to work, it would only print
a message that one of the required defines is missing.
* Fix declaration of mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_restartable() function
in the ecdsa.h header file. There was a build warning when the
configuration macro MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT was defined.
Resolves #7407.
* Fix an error when MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT is defined but not
MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT, causing ecdsa verify to fail. Fixes #7498.
* Fix missing PSA initialization in sample programs when
MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
* Fix the J-PAKE driver interface for user and peer to accept any values
(previously accepted values were limited to "client" or "server").
* Fix clang and armclang compilation error when targeting certain Arm
M-class CPUs (Cortex-M0, Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M1, Cortex-M23,
SecurCore SC000). Fixes #1077.
* Fix "unterminated '#pragma clang attribute push'" in sha256/sha512.c when
built with MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT but don't have a
way to detect the crypto extensions required. A warning is still issued.
* Fixed an issue that caused compile errors when using CMake and the IAR
toolchain.
* Fix very high stack usage in SSL debug code. Reported by Maximilian
Gerhardt in #7804.
* Fix a compilation failure in the constant_time module when
building for arm64_32 (e.g., for watchos). Reported by Paulo
Coutinho in #7787.
* Fix crypt_and_hash decryption fail when used with a stream cipher
mode of operation due to the input not being multiple of block size.
Resolves #7417.
* Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_string_to_names() would return success
when given a invalid name string if it did not contain '=' or ','.
* Fix compilation warnings in aes.c, which prevented the
example TF-M configuration in configs/ from building cleanly:
tfm_mbedcrypto_config_profile_medium.h with
crypto_config_profile_medium.h.
* In TLS 1.3, fix handshake failure when a client in its ClientHello
proposes an handshake based on PSK only key exchange mode or at least
one of the key exchange modes using ephemeral keys to a server that
supports only the PSK key exchange mode.
* Fix CCM* with no tag being not supported in a build with CCM as the only
symmetric encryption algorithm and the PSA configuration enabled.
* Fix the build with MBEDTLS_PSA_INJECT_ENTROPY. Fixes #7516.
* Fix a compilation error on some platforms when including mbedtls/ssl.h
with all TLS support disabled. Fixes #6628.
* Fix x509 certificate generation to conform to RFC 5480 / RFC 5758 when
using ECC key. The certificate was rejected by some crypto frameworks.
Fixes #2924.
* Fix a potential corruption of the passed-in IV when mbedtls_aes_crypt_cbc()
is called with zero length and padlock is not enabled.
* Fix compile failure due to empty enum in cipher_wrap.c, when building
with a very minimal configuration. Fixes #7625.
* Fix some cases where mbedtls_mpi_mod_exp, RSA key construction or ECDSA
signature can silently return an incorrect result in low memory conditions.
* Don't try to include MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE when
MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is disabled.
* Fix IAR compiler warnings.
* Fix an issue when parsing an otherName subject alternative name into a
mbedtls_x509_san_other_name struct. The type-id of the otherName was not
copied to the struct. This meant that the struct had incomplete
information about the otherName SAN and contained uninitialized memory.
* Fix the detection of HardwareModuleName otherName SANs. These were being
detected by comparing the wrong field and the check was erroneously
inverted.
* Fix a build error in some configurations with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG
enabled, where some low-level modules required by requested PSA crypto
features were not getting automatically enabled. Fixes #7420.
* Fix undefined symbols in some builds using TLS 1.3 with a custom
configuration file.
* Fix log level for the got supported group message. Fixes #6765
* Functions in the ssl_cache module now return a negative MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx
error code on failure. Before, they returned 1 to indicate failure in
some cases involving a missing entry or a full cache.
* mbedtls_pk_parse_key() now rejects trailing garbage in encrypted keys.
Changes
* Enable Arm / Thumb bignum assembly for most Arm platforms when
compiling with gcc, clang or armclang and -O0.
* Enforce minimum RSA key size when generating a key
to avoid accidental misuse.
* Use heap memory to allocate DER encoded RSA private key.
This reduces stack usage significantly for RSA signature
operations when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is defined.
* Update Windows code to use BCryptGenRandom and wcslen, and
ensure that conversions between size_t, ULONG, and int are
always done safely. Original contribution by Kevin Kane #635, #730
followed by Simon Butcher #1453.
* Users intergrating their own PSA drivers should be aware that
the file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c has been renamed
to psa_crypto_driver_wrappers_no_static.c.
* When using CBC with the cipher module, the requirement to call
mbedtls_cipher_set_padding_mode() is now enforced. Previously, omitting
this call accidentally applied a default padding mode chosen at compile
time.

Features
* When a PSA driver for ECDH is present, it is now possible to disable
MBEDTLS_ECDH_C in the build in order to save code size. For TLS 1.2
key exchanges based on ECDH(E) to work, this requires
MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO. Restartable/interruptible ECDHE operations in
TLS 1.2 (ECDHE-ECDSA key exchange) are not supported in those builds yet,
as PSA does not have an API for restartable ECDH yet.
* When all of ECDH, ECDSA and EC J-PAKE are either disabled or provided by
a driver, it is possible to disable MBEDTLS_ECP_C (and MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C
if not required by another module) and still get support for ECC keys and
algorithms in PSA, with some limitations. See docs/driver-only-builds.txt
for details.
API changes
* Mbed TLS 3.4 introduced support for omitting the built-in implementation
of ECDSA and/or EC J-PAKE when those are provided by a driver. However,
their was a flaw in the logic checking if the built-in implementation, in
that if failed to check if all the relevant curves were supported by the
accelerator. As a result, it was possible to declare no curves as
accelerated and still have the built-in implementation compiled out.
Starting with this release, it is necessary to declare which curves are
accelerated (using MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_ECC_xxx macros), or they will be
considered not accelerated, and the built-in implementation of the curves
and any algorithm possible using them will be included in the build.

and only in builds where MBEDTLS_MD_C was disabled; in particular the
entropy module was not covered which meant an external RNG had to be

feature macros, MBEDTLS_MD_CAN_xxx, has been introduced that can be used

they're provided by a built-in implementation, a driver or both. See
