According to RFC5246 the server can indicate the known Certificate
Authorities or can constrain the aurhorisation space by sending a
certificate list. This part of the message is optional and if omitted,
the client may send any certificate in the response.
The previous behaviour of mbed TLS was to always send the name of all the
CAs that are configured as root CAs. In certain cases this might cause
usability and privacy issues for example:
- If the list of the CA names is longer than the peers input buffer then
the handshake will fail
- If the configured CAs belong to third parties, this message gives away
information on the relations to these third parties
Therefore we introduce an option to suppress the CA list in the
Certificate Request message.
Providing this feature as a runtime option comes with a little cost in
code size and advantages in maintenance and flexibility.
Modify tests/scripts/check-doxy-blocks.pl to ensure that:
* It can only be run from the mbed TLS root directory.
* An error code is returned to the environment when a potential error
in the source code is found.
With this commit the Elliptic Curve Point interface is rewised. Two
compile time options has been removed to simplify the interface and
the function names got a new prefix that indicates that these functions
are for internal use and not part of the public interface.
The intended use of the abstraction layer for Elliptic Curve Point
arithmetic is to enable using hardware cryptographic accelerators.
These devices are a shared resource and the driver code rarely provides
thread safety.
This commit adds mutexes to the abstraction layer to protect the device
in a multi-threaded environment.
The primary use case behind providing an abstraction layer to enable
alternative Elliptic Curve Point arithmetic implementation, is making
use of cryptographic acceleration hardware if it is present.
To provide thread safety for the hardware accelerator we need a mutex
to guard it.
The compile time macros enabling the initialisation and deinitialisation
in the alternative Elliptic Curve Point arithmetic implementation had
names that did not end with '_ALT' as required by check-names.sh.
This patch introduces some additional checks in the PK module for 64-bit
systems only. The problem is that the API functions in the PK
abstraction accept a size_t value for the hashlen, while the RSA module
accepts an unsigned int for the hashlen. Instead of silently casting
size_t to unsigned int, this change checks whether the hashlen overflows
an unsigned int and returns an error.
Fix a buffer overflow when writting a string representation of an MPI
number to a buffer in hexadecimal. The problem occurs because hex
digits are written in pairs and this is not accounted for in the
calculation of the required buffer size when the number of digits is
odd.
The first three test cases from test_suites_pkparse.data failed because
the key file they read requires DES to be read. However, MBEDTLS_DES_C
was missing from the dependency list.

When using ssl_cookie with MBEDTLS_THREADING_C, fix a resource leak caused by
initiating a mutex in mbedtls_ssl_cookie_free instead of freeing it.

Tracked in #771

The sample application programs/ssl/ssl_server2.c was previously
modifies to use inttypes.h to parse a string to a 64-bit integer.
However, MSVC does not support C99, so compilation fails. This
patch modifies the sample app to use the MSVC specific parsing
functions instead of inttypes.h.
Adds interim directories to the Visual Studio project files to avoid warning
MSB8028 in Visual Studio 2015, where shared directories of intermediate files
between project files generate the warning.

The function ecp_mod_koblitz computed the space for the result of a
multiplication optimally for that specific case, but unfortunately
the function mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi performs a generic, suboptimal
calculation and needs one more limb for the result. Since the result's
buffer is on the stack, the best case scenario is that the program
stops.
This only happened on 64 bit platforms.
Fixes#569
This curve has special arithmetic on 64 bit platforms and an untested
path lead to trying to free a buffer on the stack.
For the sake of completeness, a test case for a point with non-affine
coordinates has been added as well.
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.
