The format of serialized SSL sessions depends on the version and the
configuration of Mbed TLS; attempts to restore sessions established
in different versions and/or configurations lead to undefined behaviour.
This commit adds an 3-byte version header to the serialized session
generated and cleanly fails ticket parsing in case a session from a
non-matching version of Mbed TLS is presented.
This bug was present since cert digest had been introduced, which highlights
the need for testing.
While at it, fix a bug in the comment explaining the format - this was
introduced by me copy-pasting to hastily from current baremetal, that has a
different format (see next PR in the series for the same in development).
We have explicit recommendations to use US spelling for technical writing, so
let's apply this to code as well for uniformity. (My fingers tend to prefer UK
spelling, so this needs to be fixed in many places.)
sed -i 's/\([Ss]eriali\)s/\1z/g' **/*.[ch] **/*.function **/*.data ChangeLog
This uncovered a bug that led to a double-free (in practice, in general could
be free() on any invalid value): initially the session structure is loaded
with `memcpy()` which copies the previous values of pointers peer_cert and
ticket to heap-allocated buffers (or any other value if the input is
attacker-controlled). Now if we exit before we got a chance to replace those
invalid values with valid ones (for example because the input buffer is too
small, or because the second malloc() failed), then the next call to
session_free() is going to call free() on invalid pointers.
This bug is fixed in this commit by always setting the pointers to NULL right
after they've been read from the serialised state, so that the invalid values
can never be used.
(An alternative would be to NULL-ify them when writing, which was rejected
mostly because we need to do it when reading anyway (as the consequences of
free(invalid) are too severe to take any risk), so doing it when writing as
well is redundant and a waste of code size.)
Also, while thinking about what happens in case of errors, it became apparent
to me that it was bad practice to leave the session structure in an
half-initialised state and rely on the caller to call session_free(), so this
commit also ensures we always clear the structure when loading failed.
This allows callers to discover what an appropriate size is. Otherwise they'd
have to either try repeatedly, or allocate an overly large buffer (or some
combination of those).
Adapt documentation an example usage in ssl_client2.
Avoid useless copy with mbedtls_ssl_get_session() before serialising.
Used in ssl_client2 for testing and demonstrating usage, but unfortunately
that means mbedtls_ssl_get_session() is no longer tested, which will be fixed
in the next commit.
On client side, this is required for the main use case where of serialising a
session for later resumption, in case tickets are used.
On server side, this doesn't change much as ticket_len will always be 0.
This unblocks testing the functions by using them in ssl_client2, which will
be done in the next commit.
This finishes making these functions public. Next step is to get them tested,
but there's currently a blocker for that, see next commit (and the commit
after it for tests).
While 'session hash' is currently unique, so suitable to prove that the
intended code path has been taken, it's a generic enough phrase that in the
future we might add other debug messages containing it in completely unrelated
code paths. In order to future-proof the accuracy of the test, let's use a
more specific string.
The previous comment used "TLS" as a shortcut for "TLS 1.0/1.1" which was
confusing. This partially reflected the names of the calc_verify/finished that
go ssl, tls (for 1.0/1.1) tls_shaxxx (for 1.2), but still it's clearer to be
explicit in the comment - and perhaps in the long term the function names
could be clarified instead.
When using this function to deserialize, it's not a problem to have a session
structure as input as we'll have one around anyway (most probably freshly
deserialised).
However for tests it's convenient to be able to build a transform without
having a session structure around.
Also, removing this structure from parameters makes the function signature
more uniform, the only exception left being the ssl param at the end that's
hard to avoid for now.
Configs with no DEBUG_C are used for example in test-ref-configs.pl, which also
runs parts of compat.sh or ssl-opt.sh on them, so the added 'ssl = NULL'
statements will be exercised in those tests at least.
Make it more explicit what's used. Unfortunately, we still need ssl as a
parameter for debugging, and because calc_verify wants it as a parameter (for
all TLS versions except SSL3 it would actually only need handshake, but SSL3
also accesses session_negotiate).
It's also because of calc_verify that we can't make it const yet, but see next
commit.

This commit implements the record checking API
mbedtls_ssl_check_record()
on top of the restructured incoming record stack.
Specifically, it makes use of the fact that the core processing routines
ssl_parse_record_header()
mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf()
now operate on instances of the SSL record structure mbedtls_record
instead of the previous mbedtls_ssl_context::in_xxx fields.
ssl_get_next_record() updates the legacy in_xxx fields in two places,
once before record decryption and once after. Now that record decryption
doesn't use or affect the in_xxx fields anymore, setting up the these
legacy fields can entirely be moved to the end of ssl_get_next_record(),
which is what this comit does.
This commit solely moves existing code, but doesn't yet simplify the
now partially redundant settings of the in_xxx fields. This will be
done in a separate commit.
Multiple record attributes such as content type and payload length
may change during record decryption, and the legacy in_xxx fields
in the SSL context therefore need to be updated after the record
decryption routine ssl_decrypt_buf() has been called.
After the previous commit has made ssl_prepare_record_content()
independent of the in_xxx fields, setting them can be moved
outside of ssl_prepare_record_content(), which is what this
commit does.
Previously, ssl_update_in_pointers() ensured that the in_xxx pointers
in the SSL context are set to their default state so that the record
header parsing function ssl_parse_record_header() could make use of them.
By now, the latter is independent of these pointers, so they don't need
to be setup before calling ssl_parse_record_header() anymore.
However, other parts of the messaging stack might still depend on it
(to be studied), and hence this commit does not yet reomve
ssl_update_in_pointers() entirely.
The stack maintains pointers mbedtls_ssl_context::in_xxx pointing to
various parts of the [D]TLS record header. Originally, these fields
were determined and set in ssl_parse_record_header(). By now,
ssl_parse_record_header() has been modularized to setup an instance
of the internal SSL record structure mbedtls_record, and to derive
the old in_xxx fields from that.
This commit takes a further step towards removing the in_xxx fields
by deriving them from the established record structure _outside_ of
ssl_parse_record_header() after the latter has succeeded.
One exception is the handling of possible client reconnects,
which happens in the case then ssl_parse_record_header() returns
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_UNEXPECTED_RECORD; since ssl_check_client_reconnect()
so far uses the in_xxx fields, they need to be derived from the
record structure beforehand.
This commit makes a first step towards modularizing the incoming record
processing by having it operate on instances of the structure mbedtls_record
representing SSL records.
So far, only record encryption/decryption operate in terms of record
instances, but the rest of the parsing doesn't. In particular,
ssl_parse_record_header() operates directly on the fixed input buffer,
setting the various ssl->in_xxx pointers and fields, and only directly
before/after calling ssl_decrypt_buf() these fields a converted to/from
mbedtls_record instances.
This commit does not yet remove the ssl->in_xxx fields, but makes a step
towards extending the lifetime of mbedtls_record structure representing
incoming records, by modifying ssl_parse_record_header() to setup an
instance of mbedtls_record, and setting the ssl->in_xxx fields from that
instance. The instance so-constructed isn't used further so far, and in
particular it is not yet consolidated with the instance set up for use
in ssl_decrypt_record(). That's for a later commit.
Previously, ssl_parse_record_header() did not check whether the current
datagram is large enough to hold a record of the advertised size. This
could lead to records being silently skipped over or backed up on the
basis of an invalid record length. Concretely, the following would happen:
1) In the case of a record from an old epoch, the record would be
'skipped over' by setting next_record_offset according to the advertised
but non-validated length, and only in the subsequent mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input()
it would be noticed in an assertion failure if the record length is too
large for the current incoming datagram.
While not critical, this is fragile, and also contrary to the intend
that MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INTERNAL_ERROR should never be trigger-able by
external input.
2) In the case of a future record being buffered, it might be that we
backup a record before we have validated its length, hence copying
parts of the input buffer that don't belong to the current record.
This is a bug, and it's by luck that it doesn't seem to have critical
consequences.
This commit fixes this by modifying ssl_parse_record_header() to check that
the current incoming datagram is large enough to hold a record of the
advertised length, returning MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INVALID_RECORD otherwise.
We don't send alerts on other instances of ill-formed records,
so why should we do it here? If we want to keep it, the alerts
should rather be sent ssl_get_next_record().
As explained in the previous commit, if mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input()
is called multiple times, all but the first call are equivalent to
bounds checks in the incoming datagram.
In DTLS, if mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input() is called multiple times without
resetting the input buffer in between, the non-initial calls are functionally
equivalent to mere bounds checks ensuring that the incoming datagram is
large enough to hold the requested data. In the interest of code-size
and modularity (removing a call to a non-const function which is logically
const in this instance), this commit replaces such a call to
mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input() by an explicit bounds check in
ssl_parse_record_header().
Previously, `ssl_handle_possible_reconnect()` was part of
`ssl_parse_record_header()`, which was required to return a non-zero error
code to indicate a record which should not be further processed because it
was invalid, unexpected, duplicate, .... In this case, some error codes
would lead to some actions to be taken, e.g. `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_EARLY_MESSAGE`
to potential buffering of the record, but eventually, the record would be
dropped regardless of the precise value of the error code. The error code
`MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_HELLO_VERIFY_REQUIRED` returned from
`ssl_handle_possible_reconnect()` did not receive any special treatment and
lead to silent dopping of the record - in particular, it was never returned
to the user.
In the new logic this commit introduces, `ssl_handle_possible_reconnect()` is
part of `ssl_check_client_reconnect()` which is triggered _after_
`ssl_parse_record_header()` found an unexpected record, which is already in
the code-path eventually dropping the record; we want to leave this code-path
only if a valid cookie has been found and we want to reset, but do nothing
otherwise. That's why `ssl_handle_possible_reconnect()` now returns `0` unless
a valid cookie has been found or a fatal error occurred.
Availability of sufficient incoming data should be checked when
it is needed, which is in mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input(), and this
function has the necessary bounds checks in place.
The check is in terms of the internal input buffer length and is
hence likely to be originally intended to protect against overflow
of the input buffer when fetching data from the underlying
transport in mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input(). For locality of reasoning,
it's better to perform such a check close to where it's needed,
and in fact, mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input() _does_ contain an equivalent
bounds check, too, rendering the bounds check in question redundant.
mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf() asserts that the passed transform is not NULL,
but the function is only invoked in a single place, and this invocation
is clearly visible to be within a branch ensuring that the incoming
transform isn't NULL. Remove the assertion for the benefit of code-size.
The previous code performed architectural maximum record length checks
both before and after record decryption. Since MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN
bounds the maximum length of the record plaintext, it suffices to check
only once after (potential) decryption.
This must not be confused with the internal check that the record
length is small enough to make the record fit into the internal input
buffer; this is done in mbedtls_ssl_fetch_input().
When MBEDTLS_SSL_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC is enabled, but not
MBEDTLS_SSL_SOME_MODES_USE_MAC, mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys() and
build_transforms() will attempt to use a non-existent `encrypt_then_mac`
field in the ssl_transform.

This commit modifies mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cid() to also allow passing
NULL pointers in the arguments for the peer's CID value and length, in
case this information is needed.
For example, some users might only be interested in whether the use of
the CID was negotiated, in which case both CID value and length pointers
can be set to NULL. Other users might only be interested in confirming
that the use of CID was negotiated and the peer chose the empty CID,
in which case the CID value pointer only would be set to NULL.
It doesn't make sense to pass a NULL pointer for the CID length but a
non-NULL pointer for the CID value, as the caller has no way of telling
the length of the returned CID - and this case is therefore forbidden.
This commit modifies the CID configuration API mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid_len()
to allow the configuration of the stack's behaviour when receiving an
encrypted DTLS record with unexpected CID.
There are two options:
1. Don't set it, and don't use it during record protection,
guarding the respective paths by a check whether TLS or
DTLS is used.
2. Set it to the default value even for TLS, and avoid the
protocol-dependent branch during record protection.
This commit picks option 2.
This commit changes the stack's behaviour when facing a record
with a non-matching CID. Previously, the stack failed in this
case, while now we silently skip over the current record.
Previously, ssl_get_next_record() would fetch 13 Bytes for the
record header and hand over to ssl_parse_record_header() to parse
and validate these. With the introduction of CID-based records, the
record length is not known in advance, and parsing and validating
must happen at the same time. ssl_parse_record_header() is therefore
rewritten in the following way:
1. Fetch and validate record content type and version.
2. If the record content type indicates a record including a CID,
adjust the record header pointers accordingly; here, we use the
statically configured length of incoming CIDs, avoiding any
elaborate CID parsing mechanism or dependency on the record
epoch, as explained in the previous commit.
3. Fetch the rest of the record header (note: this doesn't actually
fetch anything, but makes sure that the datagram fetched in the
earlier call to ssl_fetch_input() contains enough data).
4. Parse and validate the rest of the record header as before.
This commit modifies the code surrounding the invocations of
ssl_decrypt_buf() and ssl_encrypt_buf() to deal with a change
of record content type during CID-based record encryption/decryption.
mbedtls_ssl_context contains pointers in_buf, in_hdr, in_len, ...
which point to various parts of the header of an incoming TLS or
DTLS record; similarly, there are pointers out_buf, ... for
outgoing records.
This commit adds fields in_cid and out_cid which point to where
the CID of incoming/outgoing records should reside, if present,
namely prior to where the record length resides.
Quoting https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-04:
The DTLSInnerPlaintext value is then encrypted and the CID added to
produce the final DTLSCiphertext.
struct {
ContentType special_type = tls12_cid; /* 25 */
ProtocolVersion version;
uint16 epoch;
uint48 sequence_number;
opaque cid[cid_length]; // New field
uint16 length;
opaque enc_content[DTLSCiphertext.length];
} DTLSCiphertext;
For outgoing records, out_cid is set in ssl_update_out_pointers()
based on the settings in the current outgoing transform.
For incoming records, ssl_update_in_pointers() sets in_cid as if no
CID was present, and it is the responsibility of ssl_parse_record_header()
to update the field (as well as in_len, in_msg and in_iv) when parsing
records that do contain a CID. This will be done in a subsequent commit.
Finally, the code around the invocations of ssl_decrypt_buf()
and ssl_encrypt_buf() is adapted to transfer the CID from the
input/output buffer to the CID field in the internal record
structure (which is what ssl_{encrypt/decrypt}_buf() uses).
Note that mbedtls_ssl_in_hdr_len() doesn't need change because
it infers the header length as in_iv - in_hdr, which will account
for the CID for records using such.
Using the Connection ID extension increases the maximum record expansion
because
- the real record content type is added to the plaintext
- the plaintext may be padded with an arbitrary number of
zero bytes, in order to prevent leakage of information
through package length analysis. Currently, we always
pad the plaintext in a minimal way so that its length
is a multiple of 16 Bytes.
This commit adapts the various parts of the library to account
for that additional source of record expansion.
Context:
The CID draft does not require that the length of CIDs used for incoming
records must not change in the course of a connection. Since the record
header does not contain a length field for the CID, this means that if
CIDs of varying lengths are used, the CID length must be inferred from
other aspects of the record header (such as the epoch) and/or by means
outside of the protocol, e.g. by coding its length in the CID itself.
Inferring the CID length from the record's epoch is theoretically possible
in DTLS 1.2, but it requires the information about the epoch to be present
even if the epoch is no longer used: That's because one should silently drop
records from old epochs, but not the entire datagrams to which they belong
(there might be entire flights in a single datagram, including a change of
epoch); however, in order to do so, one needs to parse the record's content
length, the position of which is only known once the CID length for the epoch
is known. In conclusion, it puts a significant burden on the implementation
to infer the CID length from the record epoch, which moreover mangles record
processing with the high-level logic of the protocol (determining which epochs
are in use in which flights, when they are changed, etc. -- this would normally
determine when we drop epochs).
Moreover, with DTLS 1.3, CIDs are no longer uniquely associated to epochs,
but every epoch may use a set of CIDs of varying lengths -- in that case,
it's even theoretically impossible to do record header parsing based on
the epoch configuration only.
We must therefore seek a way for standalone record header parsing, which
means that we must either (a) fix the CID lengths for incoming records,
or (b) allow the application-code to configure a callback to implement
an application-specific CID parsing which would somehow infer the length
of the CID from the CID itself.
Supporting multiple lengths for incoming CIDs significantly increases
complexity while, on the other hand, the restriction to a fixed CID length
for incoming CIDs (which the application controls - in contrast to the
lengths of the CIDs used when writing messages to the peer) doesn't
appear to severely limit the usefulness of the CID extension.
Therefore, the initial implementation of the CID feature will require
a fixed length for incoming CIDs, which is what this commit enforces,
in the following way:
In order to avoid a change of API in case support for variable lengths
CIDs shall be added at some point, we keep mbedtls_ssl_set_cid(), which
includes a CID length parameter, but add a new API mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid_len()
which applies to an SSL configuration, and which fixes the CID length that
any call to mbetls_ssl_set_cid() which applies to an SSL context that is bound
to the given SSL configuration must use.
While this creates a slight redundancy of parameters, it allows to
potentially add an API like mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid_len_cb() later which
could allow users to register a callback which dynamically infers the
length of a CID at record header parsing time, without changing the
rest of the API.
The function mbedtls_ssl_hdr_len() returns the length of the record
header (so far: always 13 Bytes for DTLS, and always 5 Bytes for TLS).
With the introduction of the CID extension, the lengths of record
headers depends on whether the records are incoming or outgoing,
and also on the current transform.
Preparing for this, this commit splits mbedtls_ssl_hdr_len() in two
-- so far unmodified -- functions mbedtls_ssl_in_hdr_len() and
mbedtls_ssl_out_hdr_len() and replaces the uses of mbedtls_ssl_hdr_len()
according to whether they are about incoming or outgoing records.
There is no need to change the signature of mbedtls_ssl_{in/out}_hdr_len()
in preparation for its dependency on the currently active transform,
since the SSL context is passed as an argument, and the currently
active transform is referenced from that.
With the introduction of the CID feature, the stack needs to be able
to handle a change of record content type during record protection,
which in particular means that the record content type check will
need to move or be duplicated.
This commit introduces a tiny static helper function which checks
the validity of record content types, which hopefully makes it
easier to subsequently move or duplicate this check.
With the introduction of the CID extension, the record content type
may change during decryption; we must therefore re-consider every
record content type check that happens before decryption, and either
move or duplicate it to ensure it also applies to records whose
real content type is only revealed during decryption.
This commit does this for the silent dropping of unexpected
ApplicationData records in DTLS. Previously, this was caught
in ssl_parse_record_header(), returning
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_UNEXPECTED_RECORD which in ssl_get_next_record()
would lead to silent skipping of the record.
When using CID, this check wouldn't trigger e.g. when delayed
encrypted ApplicationData records come on a CID-based connection
during a renegotiation.
This commit moves the check to mbedtls_ssl_handle_message_type()
and returns MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_NON_FATAL if it triggers, which leads
so silent skipover in the caller mbedtls_ssl_read_record().
The SSL context structure mbedtls_ssl_context contains several pointers
ssl->in_hdr, ssl->in_len, ssl->in_iv, ssl->in_msg pointing to various
parts of the record header in an incoming record, and they are setup
in the static function ssl_update_in_pointers() based on the _expected_
transform for the next incoming record.
In particular, the pointer ssl->in_msg is set to where the record plaintext
should reside after record decryption, and an assertion double-checks this
after each call to ssl_decrypt_buf().
This commit removes the dependency of ssl_update_in_pointers() on the
expected incoming transform by setting ssl->in_msg to ssl->in_iv --
the beginning of the record content (potentially including the IV) --
and adjusting ssl->in_msg after calling ssl_decrypt_buf() on a protected
record.
Care has to be taken to not load ssl->in_msg before calling
mbedtls_ssl_read_record(), then, which was previously the
case in ssl_parse_server_hello(); the commit fixes that.
If a record exhibits an invalid feature only after successful
authenticated decryption, this is a protocol violation by the
peer and should hence lead to connection failure. The previous
code, however, would silently ignore such records. This commit
fixes this.
So far, the only case to which this applies is the non-acceptance
of empty non-AD records in TLS 1.2. With the present commit, such
records lead to connection failure, while previously, they were
silently ignored.
With the introduction of the Connection ID extension (or TLS 1.3),
this will also apply to records whose real content type -- which
is only revealed during authenticated decryption -- is invalid.
In contrast to other aspects of the Connection ID extension,
the CID-based additional data for MAC computations differs from
the non-CID case even if the CID length is 0, because it
includes the CID length.
Quoting the CID draft 04:
- Block Ciphers:
MAC(MAC_write_key, seq_num +
tls12_cid + // New input
DTLSPlaintext.version +
cid + // New input
cid_length + // New input
length_of_DTLSInnerPlaintext + // New input
DTLSInnerPlaintext.content + // New input
DTLSInnerPlaintext.real_type + // New input
DTLSInnerPlaintext.zeros // New input
)
And similar for AEAD and Encrypt-then-MAC.
This commit temporarily comments the copying of the negotiated CIDs
into the established ::mbedtls_ssl_transform in mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys()
until the CID feature has been fully implemented.
While mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf() and mbedtls_ssl_encrypt_buf() do
support CID-based record protection by now and can be unit tested,
the following two changes in the rest of the stack are still missing
before CID-based record protection can be integrated:
- Parsing of CIDs in incoming records.
- Allowing the new CID record content type for incoming records.
- Dealing with a change of record content type during record
decryption.
Further, since mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cid() judges the use of CIDs by
the CID fields in the currently transforms, this change also requires
temporarily disabling some grepping for ssl_client2 / ssl_server2
debug output in ssl-opt.sh.
This commit modifies ssl_decrypt_buf() and ssl_encrypt_buf()
to include the CID into authentication data during record
protection.
It does not yet implement the new DTLSInnerPlaintext format
from https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-04
The guard for the definition of the function was different from the guard on
its only use - make it the same.
This has been caught by tests/scripts/key-exchanges.pl. It had not been caught
by this script in earlier CI runs, because previously USE_PSA_CRYPTO was
disabled in the builds used by this script; enabling it uncovered the issue.
Add an additional function `mbedtls_ssl_export_keys_ext_t()`
for exporting key, that adds additional information such as
the used `tls_prf` and the random bytes.
This commit adds tests exercising mutually inverse pairs of
record encryption and decryption transformations for the various
transformation types allowed in TLS: Stream, CBC, and AEAD.
The hash contexts `ssl_transform->md_ctx_{enc/dec}` are not used if
only AEAD ciphersuites are enabled. This commit removes them from the
`ssl_transform` struct in this case, saving a few bytes.
This commit guards code specific to AEAD, CBC and stream cipher modes
in `ssl_derive_keys` by the respective configuration flags, analogous
to the guards that are already in place in the record decryption and
encryption functions `ssl_decrypt_buf` resp. `ssl_decrypt_buf`.
Analogous to the previous commit, but concerning the record decryption
routine `ssl_decrypt_buf`.
An important change regards the checking of CBC padding:
Prior to this commit, the CBC padding check always read 256 bytes at
the end of the internal record buffer, almost always going past the
boundaries of the record under consideration. In order to stay within
the bounds of the given record, this commit changes this behavior by
always reading the last min(256, plaintext_len) bytes of the record
plaintext buffer and taking into consideration the last `padlen` of
these for the padding check. With this change, the memory access
pattern and runtime of the padding check is entirely determined by
the size of the encrypted record, in particular not giving away
any information on the validity of the padding.

The previous version of the record encryption function
`ssl_encrypt_buf` takes the entire SSL context as an argument,
while intuitively, it should only depend on the current security
parameters and the record buffer.
Analyzing the exact dependencies, it turned out that in addition
to the currently active `ssl_transform` instance and the record
information, the encryption function needs access to
- the negotiated protocol version, and
- the status of the encrypt-then-MAC extension.
This commit moves these two fields into `ssl_transform` and
changes the signature of `ssl_encrypt_buf` to only use an instance
of `ssl_transform` and an instance of the new `ssl_record` type.
The `ssl_context` instance is *solely* kept for the debugging macros
which need an SSL context instance.
The benefit of the change is twofold:
1) It avoids the need of the MPS to deal with instances of
`ssl_context`. The MPS should only work with records and
opaque security parameters, which is what the change in
this commit makes progress towards.
2) It significantly eases testing of the encryption function:
independent of any SSL context, the encryption function can
be passed some record buffer to encrypt alongside some arbitrary
choice of parameters, and e.g. be checked to not overflow the
provided memory.
The macro constant `MBEDTLS_SSL_MAC_ADD` defined in `ssl_internal.h`
defines an upper bound for the amount of space needed for the record
authentication tag. Its definition distinguishes between the
presence of an ARC4 or CBC ciphersuite suite, in which case the maximum
size of an enabled SHA digest is used; otherwise, `MBEDTLS_SSL_MAC_ADD`
is set to 16 to accomodate AEAD authentication tags.
This assignment has a flaw in the situation where confidentiality is
not needed and the NULL cipher is in use. In this case, the
authentication tag also uses a SHA digest, but the definition of
`MBEDTLS_SSL_MAC_ADD` doesn't guarantee enough space.
The present commit fixes this by distinguishing between the presence
of *some* ciphersuite using a MAC, including those using a NULL cipher.
For that, the previously internal macro `SSL_SOME_MODES_USE_MAC` from
`ssl_tls.c` is renamed and moved to the public macro
`MBEDTLS_SOME_MODES_USE_MAC` defined in `ssl_internal.h`.
Prior to this commit, the security parameter struct `ssl_transform`
contained a `ciphersuite_info` field pointing to the information
structure for the negotiated ciphersuite. However, the only
information extracted from that structure that was used in the core
encryption and decryption functions `ssl_encrypt_buf`/`ssl_decrypt_buf`
was the authentication tag length in case of an AEAD cipher.
The present commit removes the `ciphersuite_info` field from the
`ssl_transform` structure and adds an explicit `taglen` field
for AEAD authentication tag length.
This is in accordance with the principle that the `ssl_transform`
structure should contain the raw parameters needed for the record
encryption and decryption functions to work, but not the higher-level
information that gave rise to them. For example, the `ssl_transform`
structure implicitly contains the encryption/decryption keys within
their cipher contexts, but it doesn't contain the SSL master or
premaster secrets. Likewise, it contains an explicit `maclen`, while
the status of the 'Truncated HMAC' extension -- which determines the
value of `maclen` when the `ssl_transform` structure is created in
`ssl_derive_keys` -- is not contained in `ssl_transform`.
The `ciphersuite_info` pointer was used in other places outside
the encryption/decryption functions during the handshake, and for
these functions to work, this commit adds a `ciphersuite_info` pointer
field to the handshake-local `ssl_handshake_params` structure.
The `ssl_transform` security parameter structure contains opaque
cipher contexts for use by the record encryption/decryption functions
`ssl_decrypt_buf`/`ssl_encrypt_buf`, while the underlying key material
is configured once in `ssl_derive_keys` and is not explicitly dealt with
anymore afterwards. In particular, the key length is not needed
explicitly by the encryption/decryption functions but is nonetheless
stored in an explicit yet superfluous `keylen` field in `ssl_transform`.
This commit removes this field.

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.
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.
`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.
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 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,

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.
- 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.
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.
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
The SSL module accesses ECDH context members directly. This can't work
with the new context, where we can't make any assumption about the
implementation of the context.
This commit makes use of the new functions to avoid accessing ECDH
members directly. The only members that are still accessed directly are
the group ID and the point format and they are independent from the
implementation.
Reasons:
- For the first release, we attempt to support TLS-1.2 only,
- At least TLS-1.0 is known to not work at the moment, as
for CBC ciphersuites the code in mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf()
and mbedtls_ssl_encrypt_buf() assumes that mbedtls_cipher_crypt()
updates the structure field for the IV in the cipher context,
which the PSA-based implementation currently doesn't.
This commit changes the code path in mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys()
responsible for setting up record protection cipher contexts
to attempt to use the new API mbedtls_cipher_setup_psa() in
case MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is set.
For that, the AEAD tag length must be provided, which is already
computed earlier in mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys() and only needs to be
stored a function scope to be available for mbedtls_cipher_setup_psa().
If mbedtls_cipher_setup_psa() fails cleanly indicating that the
requested cipher is not supported in PSA, we fall through to
the default setup using mbedtls_cipher_setup(). However, we print
a debug message in this case, to allow catching the fallthrough in
tests where we know we're using a cipher which should be supported
by PSA.
The code maintains the invariant that raw and opaque PSKs are never
configured simultaneously, so strictly speaking `ssl_conf_remove_psk()`
need not consider clearing the raw PSK if it has already cleared an
opaque one - and previously, it didn't. However, it doesn't come at
any cost to keep this check as a safe-guard to future unforeseen
situations where opaque and raw PSKs _are_ both present.
In multiple places, it occurrs as the fixed length of
the master secret, so use a constant with a descriptive
name instead. This is reinforced by the fact the some
further occurrences of '48' are semantically different.
ssl_write_handshake_msg() includes the assertion that
`ssl->handshake != NULL` when handling a record which is
(a) a handshake message, and NOT
(b) a HelloRequest.
However, it later calls `ssl_append_flight()` for any
record different from a HelloRequest handshake record,
that is, records satisfying !(a) || !(b), instead of
(a) && !(b) as covered by the assertion (specifically,
CCS or Alert records).
Since `ssl_append_flight()` assumes that `ssl->handshake != NULL`,
this rightfully triggers static analyzer warnings.
This commit expands the scope of the assertion to check
that `ssl->handshake != NULL` for any record which is not
a HelloRequest.
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 ensures that buffers holding fragmented or
future 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.

By the standard (RFC 6066, Sect. 4), the Maximum Fragment Length (MFL)
extension limits the maximum record payload size, but not the maximum
datagram size. However, not inferring any limitations on the MTU when
setting the MFL means that a party has no means to dynamically inform
the peer about MTU limitations.
This commit changes the function ssl_get_remaining_payload_in_datagram()
to never return more than
MFL - { Total size of all records within the current datagram }
thereby limiting the MTU to MFL + { Maximum Record Expansion }.
The function ssl_free_buffered_record() frees a future epoch record, if
such is present. Previously, it was called in mbedtls_handshake_free(),
i.e. an unused buffered record would be cleared at the end of the handshake.
This commit moves the call to the function ssl_buffering_free() responsible
for freeing all buffering-related data, and which is called not only at
the end of the handshake, but at the end of every flight. In particular,
future record epochs won't be buffered across flight boundaries anymore,
and they shouldn't.
The previous code appended messages to flights only if their handshake type,
as derived from the first byte in the message, was different from
MBEDTLS_SSL_HS_HELLO_REQUEST. This check should only be performed
for handshake records, while CCS records should immediately be appended.
In SSLv3, the client sends a NoCertificate alert in response to
a CertificateRequest if it doesn't have a CRT. This previously
lead to failure in ssl_write_handshake_msg() which only accepted
handshake or CCS records.

Previous commits introduced the field `total_bytes_buffered`
which is supposed to keep track of the cumulative size of
all heap allocated buffers used for the purpose of reassembly
and/or buffering of future messages.
However, the buffering of future epoch records were not reflected
in this field so far. This commit changes this, adding the length
of a future epoch record to `total_bytes_buffered` when it's buffered,
and subtracting it when it's freed.
This commit adds a static function ssl_buffer_make_space() which
takes a buffer size as an argument and attempts to free as many
future message bufffers as necessary to ensure that the desired
amount of buffering space is available without violating the
total buffering limit set by MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_MAX_BUFFERING.
If the next expected handshake message can't be reassembled because
buffered future messages have already used up too much of the available
space for buffering, free those future message buffers in order to
make space for the reassembly, starting with the handshake message
that's farthest in the future.
This commit adds a static function ssl_buffering_free_slot()
which allows to free a particular structure used to buffer
and/or reassembly some handshake message.
This commit introduces a compile time constant MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_MAX_BUFFERING
to mbedtls/config.h which allows the user to control the cumulative size of
all heap buffer allocated for the purpose of reassembling and buffering
handshake messages.
It is put to use by introducing a new field `total_bytes_buffered` to
the buffering substructure of `mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params` that keeps
track of the total size of heap allocated buffers for the purpose of
reassembly and buffering at any time. It is increased whenever a handshake
message is buffered or prepared for reassembly, and decreased when a
buffered or fully reassembled message is copied into the input buffer
and passed to the handshake logic layer.
This commit does not yet include future epoch record buffering into
account; this will be done in a subsequent commit.
Also, it is now conceivable that the reassembly of the next expected
handshake message fails because too much buffering space has already
been used up for future messages. This case currently leads to an
error, but instead, the stack should get rid of buffered messages
to be able to buffer the next one. This will need to be implemented
in one of the next commits.
A previous commit introduced the function ssl_prepare_reassembly_buffer()
which took a message length and a boolean flag indicating if a reassembly
bit map was needed, and attempted to heap-allocate a buffer of sufficient
size to hold both the message, its header, and potentially the reassembly
bitmap.
A subsequent commit is going to introduce a limit on the amount of heap
allocations allowed for the purpose of buffering, and this change will
need to know the reassembly buffer size before attempting the allocation.
To this end, this commit changes ssl_prepare_reassembly_buffer() into
ssl_get_reassembly_buffer_size() which solely computes the reassembly
buffer size, and performing the heap allocation manually in
ssl_buffer_message().
This commit moves the length and content check for CCS messages to
the function mbedtls_ssl_handle_message_type() which is called after
a record has been deprotected.
Previously, these checks were performed in the function
mbedtls_ssl_parse_change_cipher_spec(); however, now that
the arrival of out-of-order CCS messages is remembered
as a boolean flag, the check also has to happen when this
flag is set. Moving the length and content check to
mbedtls_ssl_handle_message_type() allows to treat both
checks uniformly.
Depends on the current transform, which might change when retransmitting a
flight containing a Finished message, so compute it only after the transform
is swapped.
This setting belongs to the individual connection, not to a configuration
shared by many connections. (If a default value is desired, that can be handled
by the application code that calls mbedtls_ssl_set_mtu().)
There are at least two ways in which this matters:
- per-connection settings can be adjusted if MTU estimates become available
during the lifetime of the connection
- it is at least conceivable that a server might recognize restricted clients
based on range of IPs and immediately set a lower MTU for them. This is much
easier to do with a per-connection setting than by maintaining multiple
near-duplicated ssl_config objects that differ only by the MTU setting.
The SSL context is passed to the reassembly preparation function
ssl_prepare_reassembly_buffer() solely for the purpose of allowing
debugging output. This commit marks the context as unused if
debugging is disabled (through !MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C).
This commit implements the buffering of a record from the next epoch.
- The buffering substructure of mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params
gets another field to hold a raw record (incl. header) from
a future epoch.
- If ssl_parse_record_header() sees a record from the next epoch,
it signals that it might be suitable for buffering by returning
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_EARLY_MESSAGE.
- If ssl_get_next_record() finds this error code, it passes control
to ssl_buffer_future_record() which may or may not decide to buffer
the record; it does so if
- a handshake is in progress,
- the record is a handshake record
- no record has already been buffered.
If these conditions are met, the record is backed up in the
aforementioned buffering substructure.
- If the current datagram is fully processed, ssl_load_buffered_record()
is called to check if a record has been buffered, and if yes,
if by now the its epoch is the current one; if yes, it copies
the record into the (empty! otherwise, ssl_load_buffered_record()
wouldn't have been called) input buffer.
This commit implements future handshake message buffering
and loading by implementing ssl_load_buffered_message()
and ssl_buffer_message().
Whenever a handshake message is received which is
- a future handshake message (i.e., the sequence number
is larger than the next expected one), or which is
- a proper fragment of the next expected handshake message,
ssl_buffer_message() is called, which does the following:
- Ignore message if its sequence number is too far ahead
of the next expected sequence number, as controlled by
the macro constant MBEDTLS_SSL_MAX_BUFFERED_HS.
- Otherwise, check if buffering for the message with the
respective sequence number has already commenced.
- If not, allocate space to back up the message within
the buffering substructure of mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params.
If the message is a proper fragment, allocate additional
space for a reassembly bitmap; if it is a full message,
omit the bitmap. In any case, fall throuh to the next case.
- If the message has already been buffered, check that
the header is the same, and add the current fragment
if the message is not yet complete (this excludes the
case where a future message has been received in a single
fragment, hence omitting the bitmap, and is afterwards
also received as a series of proper fragments; in this
case, the proper fragments will be ignored).
For loading buffered messages in ssl_load_buffered_message(),
the approach is the following:
- Check the first entry in the buffering window (the window
is always based at the next expected handshake message).
If buffering hasn't started or if reassembly is still
in progress, ignore. If the next expected message has been
fully received, copy it to the input buffer (which is empty,
as ssl_load_buffered_message() is only called in this case).
This commit returns the error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_EARLY_MESSAGE
for proper handshake fragments, forwarding their treatment to
the buffering function ssl_buffer_message(); currently, though,
this function does not yet buffer or reassembly HS messages, so:
! This commit temporarily disables support for handshake reassembly !
This commit introduces helper functions
- ssl_get_hs_frag_len()
- ssl_get_hs_frag_off()
to parse the fragment length resp. fragment offset fields
in the handshake header.
Moreover, building on these helper functions, it adds a
function ssl_check_hs_header() checking the validity of
a DTLS handshake header with respect to the specification,
i.e. the indicated fragment must be a subrange of the total
handshake message, and the total handshake fragment length
(including header) must not exceed the record content size.
These checks were previously performed at a later stage during
ssl_reassemble_dtls_handshake().
This commit introduces a static helper function ssl_get_hs_total_len()
parsing the total message length field in the handshake header, and
puts it to use in mbedtls_ssl_prepare_handshake_record().
This commit introduces, but does not yet put to use, a sub-structure
of mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params::buffering that will be used for the
buffering and/or reassembly of handshake messages with handshake
sequence numbers that are greater or equal to the next expected
sequence number.
This commit introduces a sub-structure `buffering` within
mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params that shall contain all data
related to the reassembly and/or buffering of handshake
messages.
Currently, only buffering of CCS messages is implemented,
so the only member of this struct is the previously introduced
`seen_ccs` field.
This commit introduces a static function ssl_hs_is_proper_fragment()
to check if the current incoming handshake message is a proper fragment.
It is used within mbedtls_ssl_prepare_handshake_record() to decide whether
handshake reassembly through ssl_reassemble_dtls_handshake() is needed.
The commit changes the behavior of the library in the (unnatural)
situation where proper fragments for a handshake message are followed
by a non-fragmented version of the same message. In this case,
the previous code invoked the handshake reassembly routine
ssl_reassemble_dtls_handshake(), while with this commit, the full
handshake message is directly forwarded to the user, no altering
the handshake reassembly state -- in particular, not freeing it.
As a remedy, freeing of a potential handshake reassembly structure
is now done as part of the handshake update function
mbedtls_ssl_update_handshake_status().
This commit adds a parameter to ssl_prepare_reassembly_buffer()
allowing to disable the allocation of space for a reassembly bitmap.
This will allow this function to be used for the allocation of buffers
for future handshake messages in case these need no fragmentation.
This commit moves the code-path preparing the handshake
reassembly buffer, consisting of header, message content,
and reassembly bitmap, to a separate function
ssl_prepare_reassembly_buffer().
This leads future HS messages to traverse the buffering
function ssl_buffer_message(), which however doesn't do
anything at the moment for HS messages. Since the error
code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_EARLY_MESSAGE is afterwards remapped
to MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CONTINUE_PROCESSING -- which is what
was returned prior to this commit when receiving a future
handshake message -- this commit therefore does not yet
introduce any change in observable behavior.
This commit implements support for remembering out-of-order
CCS messages. Specifically, a flag is set whenever a CCS message
is read which remains until the end of a flight, and when a
CCS message is expected and a CCS message has been seen in the
current flight, a synthesized CCS record is created.
This commit introduces a function ssl_record_is_in_progress()
to indicate if there is there is more data within the current
record to be processed. Further, it moves the corresponding
call from ssl_read_record_layer() to the parent function
mbedtls_ssl_read_record(). With this change, ssl_read_record_layer()
has the sole purpose of fetching and decoding a new record,
and hence this commit also renames it to ssl_get_next_record().
Subsequent commits will potentially inject buffered
messages after the last incoming message has been
consumed, but before a new one is fetched. As a
preparatory step to this, this commit moves the call
to ssl_consume_current_message() from ssl_read_record_layer()
to the calling function mbedtls_ssl_read_record().
The first part of the function ssl_read_record_layer() was
to mark the previous message as consumed. This commit moves
the corresponding code-path to a separate static function
ssl_consume_current_message().
This function was previously global because it was
used directly within ssl_parse_certificate_verify()
in library/ssl_srv.c. The previous commit removed
this dependency, replacing the call by a call to
the global parent function mbedtls_ssl_read_record().
This renders mbedtls_ssl_read_record_layer() internal
and therefore allows to make it static, and accordingly
rename it as ssl_read_record_layer().
Usually, debug messages beginning with "=> and "<="
match up and indicate entering of and returning from
functions, respectively. This commit fixes one exception
to this rule in mbedtls_ssl_read_record(), which sometimes
printed two messages of the form "<= XXX".
Previously, mbedtls_ssl_read_record() always updated the handshake
checksum in case a handshake record was received. While desirable
most of the time, for the CertificateVerify message the checksum
update must only happen after the message has been fully processed,
because the validation requires the handshake digest up to but
excluding the CertificateVerify itself. As a remedy, the bulk
of mbedtls_ssl_read_record() was previously duplicated within
ssl_parse_certificate_verify(), hardening maintenance in case
mbedtls_ssl_read_record() is subject to changes.
This commit adds a boolean parameter to mbedtls_ssl_read_record()
indicating whether the checksum should be updated in case of a
handshake message or not. This allows using it also for
ssl_parse_certificate_verify(), manually updating the checksum
after the message has been processed.
This for example lead to the following corner case bug:
The code attempted to piggy-back a Finished message at
the end of a datagram where precisely 12 bytes of payload
were still available. This lead to an empty Finished fragment
being sent, and when mbedtls_ssl_flight_transmit() was called
again, it believed that it was just starting to send the
Finished message, thereby calling ssl_swap_epochs() which
had already happened in the call sending the empty fragment.
Therefore, the second call would send the 'rest' of the
Finished message with wrong epoch.
This commit adds a public function
`mbedtls_ssl_conf_datagram_packing()`
that allows to allow / forbid the packing of multiple
records within a single datagram.
The `partial` argument is only used when DTLS and same port
client reconnect are enabled. This commit marks the variable
as unused if that's not the case.
If neither the maximum fragment length extension nor DTLS
are used, the SSL context argument is unnecessary as the
maximum payload length is hardcoded as MBEDTLS_SSL_MAX_CONTENT_LEN.
This commit finally enables datagram packing by modifying the
record preparation function ssl_write_record() to not always
calling mbedtls_ssl_flush_output().
The packing of multiple records within a single datagram works
by increasing the pointer `out_hdr` (pointing to the beginning
of the next outgoing record) within the datagram buffer, as
long as space is available and no flush was mandatory.
This commit does not yet change the code's behavior of always
flushing after preparing a record, but it introduces the logic
of increasing `out_hdr` after preparing the record, and resetting
it after the flush has been completed.
Previously, the record sequence number was incremented at the
end of each successful call to mbedtls_ssl_flush_output(),
which works as long as there is precisely one such call for
each outgoing record.
When packing multiple records into a single datagram, this
property is no longer true, and instead the increment of the
record sequence number must happen after the record has been
prepared, and not after it has been dispatched.
This commit moves the code for incrementing the record sequence
number from mbedtls_ssl_flush_output() to ssl_write_record().
This commit is another step towards supporting the packing of
multiple records within a single datagram.
Previously, the incremental outgoing record sequence number was
statically stored within the record buffer, at its final place
within the record header. This slightly increased efficiency
as it was not necessary to copy the sequence number when writing
outgoing records.
When allowing multiple records within a single datagram, it is
necessary to allow the position of the current record within the
datagram buffer to be flexible; in particular, there is no static
address for the record sequence number field within the record header.
This commit introduces an additional field `cur_out_ctr` within
the main SSL context structure `mbedtls_ssl_context` to keep track
of the outgoing record sequence number independent of the buffer used
for the current record / datagram. Whenever a new record is written,
this sequence number is copied to the the address `out_ctr` of the
sequence number header field within the current outgoing record.
The SSL/TLS module maintains a number of internally used pointers
`out_hdr`, `out_len`, `out_iv`, ..., indicating where to write the
various parts of the record header.
These pointers have to be kept in sync and sometimes need update:
Most notably, the `out_msg` pointer should always point to the
beginning of the record payload, and its offset from the pointer
`out_iv` pointing to the end of the record header is determined
by the length of the explicit IV used in the current record
protection mechanism.
This commit introduces functions deducing these pointers from
the pointers `out_hdr` / `in_hdr` to the beginning of the header
of the current outgoing / incoming record.
The flexibility gained by these functions will subsequently
be used to allow shifting of `out_hdr` for the purpose of
packing multiple records into a single datagram.
