When parsing a substructure of an ASN.1 structure, no field within
the substructure must exceed the bounds of the substructure.
Concretely, the `end` pointer passed to the ASN.1 parsing routines
must be updated to point to the end of the substructure while parsing
the latter.
This was previously not the case for the routines
- x509_get_attr_type_and_value(),
- mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext(),
- mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext().
These functions kept using the end of the parent structure as the
`end` pointer and would hence allow substructure fields to cross
the substructure boundary. This could lead to successful parsing
of ill-formed X.509 CRTs.
This commit fixes this.
Care has to be taken when adapting `mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext()`
and `mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext()`, as the underlying function
`mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` returns `0` if no extensions are present
but doesn't set the variable which holds the bounds of the Extensions
structure in case the latter is present. This commit addresses
this by returning early from `mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext()` and
`mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext()` if parsing has reached the end of
the input buffer.
The following X.509 parsing tests need to be adapted:
- "TBSCertificate, issuer two inner set datas"
This test exercises the X.509 CRT parser with a Subject name
which has two empty `AttributeTypeAndValue` structures.
This is supposed to fail with `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_OUT_OF_DATA`
because the parser should attempt to parse the first structure
and fail because of a lack of data. Previously, it failed to
obey the (0-length) bounds of the first AttributeTypeAndValue
structure and would try to interpret the beginning of the second
AttributeTypeAndValue structure as the first field of the first
AttributeTypeAndValue structure, returning an UNEXPECTED_TAG error.
- "TBSCertificate, issuer, no full following string"
This test exercises the parser's behaviour on an AttributeTypeAndValue
structure which contains more data than expected; it should therefore
fail with MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_LENGTH_MISMATCH. Because of the missing bounds
check, it previously failed with UNEXPECTED_TAG because it interpreted
the remaining byte in the first AttributeTypeAndValue structure as the
first byte in the second AttributeTypeAndValue structure.
- "SubjectAltName repeated"
This test should exercise two SubjectAltNames extensions in succession,
but a wrong length values makes the second SubjectAltNames extension appear
outside of the Extensions structure. With the new bounds in place, this
therefore fails with a LENGTH_MISMATCH error. This commit adapts the test
data to put the 2nd SubjectAltNames extension inside the Extensions
structure, too.
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.
As noted in #557, several functions use 'index' resp. 'time'
as parameter names in their declaration and/or definition, causing name
conflicts with the functions in the C standard library of the same
name some compilers warn about.
This commit renames the arguments accordingly.
A heap overread might happen when parsing malformed certificates.

Refactoring the parsing fixes the problem. This commit applies the
relevant part of the OpenVPN contribution applied to mbed TLS 1.3
in commit 17da9dd82931abdf054a01c466bce45e7d12b742.
Fixes many typos, and errors in comments.
* Clarifies many comments
* Grammar correction in config.pl help text
* Removed comment about MBEDTLS_X509_EXT_NS_CERT_TYPE.
* Comment typo fix (Dont => Don't)
* Comment typo fix (assure => ensure)
* Comment typo fix (byes => bytes)
* Added citation for quoted standard
* Comment typo fix (one complement => 1's complement)
The is some debate about whether to prefer "one's complement", "ones'
complement", or "1's complement". The more recent RFCs related to TLS
(RFC 6347, RFC 4347, etc) use " 1's complement", so I followed that
convention.
* Added missing ")" in comment
* Comment alignment
* Incorrect comment after #endif
Separates platform time abstraction into it's own header from the
general platform abstraction as both depend on different build options.
(MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C vs MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME)
* gmtime_r is not standard so -std=c99 warns about it
* Anyway we need global mutexes in the threading layer, so better depend only
on that, rather that global mutexes + some _r functions
* mbedtls-1.3:
Add missing depends in x509 programs
Simplify ifdef checks in programs/x509
Fix thread safety issue in RSA operations
Add test certificate for bitstring in DN
Add support for X.520 uniqueIdentifier
Accept bitstrings in X.509 names
- more freedom for us to change it in the future
- enforces hygiene
- performance impact of making accessors no longer inline should really be
negligible
