When a key slot is wiped, a copy of the key material may remain in
operations. This is undesirable, but does not violate the safety of
the code. Tracked in https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-crypto/issues/86
The methods to import and generate a key in a secure element drivers
were written for an earlier version of the application-side interface.
Now that there is a psa_key_attributes_t structure that combines all
key metadata including its lifetime (location), type, size, policy and
extra type-specific data (domain parameters), pass that to drivers
instead of separate arguments for each piece of metadata. This makes
the interface less cluttered.
Update parameter names and descriptions to follow general conventions.
Document the public-key output on key generation more precisely.
Explain that it is optional in a driver, and when a driver would
implement it. Declare that it is optional in the core, too (which
means that a crypto core might not support drivers for secure elements
that do need this feature).
Update the implementation and the tests accordingly.
Register an existing key in a secure element.
Minimal implementation that doesn't call any driver method and just
lets the application declare whatever it wants.
Pass the key creation method (import/generate/derive/copy) to the
driver methods to allocate or validate a slot number. This allows
drivers to enforce policies such as "this key slot can only be used
for keys generated inside the secure element".
Let psa_start_key_creation know what type of key creation this is. This
will be used at least for key registration in a secure element, which
is a peculiar kind of creation since it uses existing key material.
Allow the application to choose the slot number in a secure element,
rather than always letting the driver choose.
With this commit, any application may request any slot. In an
implementation with isolation, it's up to the service to filter key
creation requests and apply policies to limit which applications can
request which slot.
This function no longer modifies anything, so it doesn't actually
allocate the slot. Now, it just returns the empty key slot, and it's
up to the caller to cause the slot to be in use (or not).
Add a slot_number field to psa_key_attributes_t and getter/setter
functions. Since slot numbers can have the value 0, indicate the
presence of the field via a separate flag.
In psa_get_key_attributes(), report the slot number if the key is in a
secure element.
When creating a key, for now, applications cannot choose a slot
number. A subsequent commit will add this capability in the secure
element HAL.
Add infrastructure for internal, external and dual-use flags, with a
compile-time check (if static_assert is available) to ensure that the
same numerical value doesn't get declared for two different purposes
in crypto_struct.h (external or dual-use) and
psa_crypto_core.h (internal).
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random can only return up to
MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_MAX_REQUEST (normally 1024) bytes at a time. So if
more than that is requested, call mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random in a loop.
When psa_generate_random fails, psa_generate_key_internal frees the
key buffer but a the pointer to the now-freed buffer in the slot. Then
psa_generate_key calls psa_fail_key_creation which sees the pointer
and calls free() again.
This bug was introduced by ff5f0e7221
"Implement atomic-creation psa_{generate,generator_import}_key" which
changed how psa_generate_key() cleans up on errors. I went through the
code and could not find a similar bug in cleanup on an error during
key creation.
Fix#207
Conflict resolution:
* `scripts/config.pl`:
Take the exclusion of `MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C` from the API branch.
Take the removal of `MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STORAGE_ITS_C` (obsolete) from
the development branch.
* `tests/scripts/all.sh`:
Multiple instances of factoring a sequence of `config.pl` calls into
a mere `config.pl baremetal` in the development branch, and a change in
the composition of `baremetal` in the API branch. In each case, take the
version from development.
* `tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto_slot_management.function`:
A function became non-static in development and disappeared in the API
branch. Keep the version from the API branch. Functions need to be
non-static if they're defined but unused in some configurations,
which is not the case for any function in this file at the moment.
* `tests/suites/test_suite_psa_crypto.function`:
Consecutive changes in the two branches, reconciled.
The flag to mark key slots as allocated was introduced to mark slots
that are claimed and in use, but do not have key material yet, at a
time when creating a key used several API functions: allocate a slot,
then progressively set its metadata, and finally create the key
material. Now that all of these steps are combined into a single
API function call, the notion of allocated-but-not-filled slot is no
longer relevant. So remove the corresponding flag.
A slot is occupied iff there is a key in it. (For a key in a secure
element, the key material is not present, but the slot contains the
key metadata.) This key must have a type which is nonzero, so use this
as an indicator that a slot is in use.
There is now a field for the key size in the key slot in memory. Use
it.
This makes psa_get_key_attributes() marginally faster at the expense
of memory that is available anyway in the current memory layout (16
bits for the size, 16 bits for flags). That's not the goal, though:
the goal is to simplify the code, in particular to make it more
uniform between transparent keys (whose size can be recomputed) and
keys in secure elements (whose size cannot be recomputed).
For keys in a secure element, the bit size is now saved by serializing
the type psa_key_bits_t (which is an alias for uint16_t) rather than
size_t.
Change the type of key slots in memory to use
psa_core_key_attributes_t rather than separate fields. The goal is to
simplify some parts of the code. This commit only does the mechanical
replacement, not the substitution.
The bit-field `allocate` is now a flag `PSA_KEY_SLOT_FLAG_ALLOCATED`
in the `flags` field.
Write accessor functions for flags.
Key slots now contain a bit size field which is currently unused.
Subsequent commits will make use of it.
Resolve conflicts by performing the following operations:
- Reject changes related to building a crypto submodule, since Mbed
Crypto is the crypto submodule.
- Reject X.509, NET, and SSL changes.
- Reject changes to README, as Mbed Crypto is a different project from
Mbed TLS, with a different README.
- Avoid adding mention of ssl-opt.sh in a comment near some modified
code in include/CMakeLists.txt (around where ENABLE_TESTING as added).
- Align config.pl in Mbed TLS with config.pl in Mbed Crypto where PSA
options are concerned, to make future merging easier. There is no
reason for the two to be different in this regard, now that Mbed TLS
always depends on Mbed Crypto. Remaining differences are only the
PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER option and the absence of X.509,
NET, and SSL related options in Mbed Crypto's config.pl.
- Align config.h in Mbed Crypto with Mbed TLS's copy, with a few notable
exceptions:
- Leave CMAC on by default.
- Leave storage on by default (including ITS emulation).
- Avoid documenting the PSA Crypto API as is in beta stage in
documentation for MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C.
The only remaining differences are a lack of X.509, NET, and SSL
options in Mbed Crypto's config.h, as well as an additional
Mbed-Crypto-specific PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER option.
Documentation for the check params feature and related macros is also
updated to match Mbed TLS's description.
- Reject tests/data_files/Makefile changes to generate DER versions of
CRTs and keys, as none of those are used by Mbed Crypto tests.
- Add the "no PEM and no filesystem" test to all.sh, without ssl-opt.sh
run, as Mbed Crypto doesn't have ssl-opt.sh. Also remove use of PSA
Crypto storage and ITS emulation, since those depend on filesystem
support.
- Reject addition of test when no ciphersuites have MAC to all.sh, as
the option being tested, MBEDTLS_SSL_SOME_MODES_USE_MAC, is not
present in Mbed Crypto.
- Use baremetal config in all.sh, as Mbed Crypto's baremetal
configuration does exclude the net module (as it doesn't exist in Mbed
Crypto)
- Reject cmake_subproject_build changes, continuing to link only
libmbedcrypto.
- Reject changes to visualc and associated templates. Mbed Crypto
doesn't need additional logic to handle submodule-sourced headers.
- Avoid adding fuzzers from Mbed TLS. The only relevant fuzzers are the
privkey and pubkey fuzzers, but non-trivial work would be required to
integrate those into Mbed Crypto (more than is comfortable in a merge
commit).
- Reject addition of Docker wrappers for compat.sh and ssl-opt.sh, as
those are not present in Mbed Crypto.
- Remove calls to SSL-related scripts from basic-in-docker.sh
Fix test errors by performing the following:
- Avoid using a link that Doxygen can't seem to resolve in Mbed Crypto,
but can resolve in Mbed TLS. In documentation for
MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS, don't attempt to link to MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED.

65528 bits is more than any reasonable key until we start supporting
post-quantum cryptography.
This limit is chosen to allow bit-sizes to be stored in 16 bits, with
65535 left to indicate an invalid value. It's a whole number of bytes,
which facilitates some calculations, in particular allowing a key of
exactly PSA_CRYPTO_MAX_STORAGE_SIZE to be created but not one bit
more.
As a resource usage limit, this is arguably too large, but that's out
of scope of the current commit.
Test that key import, generation and derivation reject overly large
sizes.
Move the "core attributes" to a substructure of psa_key_attribute_t.
The motivation is to be able to use the new structure
psa_core_key_attributes_t internally.
For a key in a secure element, save the bit size alongside the slot
number.
This is a quick-and-dirty implementation where the storage format
depends on sizeof(size_t), which is fragile. This should be replaced
by a more robust implementation before going into production.
Add a parameter to the key import method of a secure element driver to
make it report the key size in bits. This is necessary (otherwise the
core has no idea what the bit-size is), and making import report it is
easier than adding a separate method (for other key creation methods,
this information is an input, not an output).
Nothing has been saved to disk yet, but there is stale data in
psa_crypto_transaction. This stale data should not be reused, but do
wipe it to reduce the risk of it mattering somehow in the future.
Introduce a new function psa_get_transparent_key which returns
NOT_SUPPORTED if the key is in a secure element. Use this function in
functions that don't support keys in a secure element.
After this commit, all functions that access a key slot directly via
psa_get_key_slot or psa_get_key_from_slot rather than via
psa_get_transparent_key have at least enough support for secure
elements not to crash or otherwise cause undefined behavior. Lesser
bad behavior such as wrong results or resource leakage is still
possible in error cases.
The following provides more information on this PR:
- PSA stands for Platform Security Architecture.
- Add support for use of psa_trusted_storage_api internal_trusted_storage.h v1.0.0
as the interface to the psa_trusted_storage_linux backend (i.e. for persistent
storage when MBEDTLS_PSA_ITS_FILE_C is not defined). This requires changes
to psa_crypto_its.h and psa_crypto_storage.c to migrate to the new API.
Stored keys must contain lifetime information. The lifetime used to be
implied by the location of the key, back when applications supplied
the lifetime value when opening the key. Now that all keys' metadata
are stored in a central location, this location needs to store the
lifetime explicitly.
Pass information via a key attribute structure rather than as separate
parameters to psa_crypto_storage functions. This makes it easier to
maintain the code when the metadata of a key evolves.
This has negligible impact on code size (+4B with "gcc -Os" on x86_64).
Key creation and key destruction for a key in a secure element both
require updating three pieces of data: the key data in the secure
element, the key metadata in internal storage, and the SE driver's
persistent data. Perform these actions in a transaction so that
recovery is possible if the action is interrupted midway.
Implement a transaction record that can be used for actions that
modify more than one piece of persistent data (whether in the
persistent storage or elsewhere such as in a secure element).
While performing a transaction, the transaction file is present in
storage. If the system starts with an ongoing transaction, it must
complete the transaction (not implemented yet).
All modules using restartable ECC operations support passing `NULL`
as the restart context as a means to not use the feature.
The restart contexts for ECDSA and ECP are nested, and when calling
restartable ECP operations from restartable ECDSA operations, the
address of the ECP restart context to use is calculated by adding
the to the address of the ECDSA restart context the offset the of
the ECP restart context.
If the ECP restart context happens to not reside at offset `0`, this
leads to a non-`NULL` pointer being passed to restartable ECP
operations from restartable ECDSA-operations; those ECP operations
will hence assume that the pointer points to a valid ECP restart
address and likely run into a segmentation fault when trying to
dereference the non-NULL but close-to-NULL address.
The problem doesn't arise currently because luckily the ECP restart
context has offset 0 within the ECDSA restart context, but we should
not rely on it.
This commit fixes the passage from restartable ECDSA to restartable ECP
operations by propagating NULL as the restart context pointer.
Apart from being fragile, the previous version could also lead to
NULL pointer dereference failures in ASanDbg builds which dereferenced
the ECDSA restart context even though it's not needed to calculate the
address of the offset'ed ECP restart context.

Replace some frequently-used macros by inline functions: instead of
calling MOD_{ADD,SUB,MUL} after the mbedtls_mpi_{add,sub,mul}_mpi,
call a function mbedtls_mpi_xxx_mod that does the same.
In the baremetal config, with "gcc -Os -mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m0plus",
ecp.o goes down from 13878 bytes to 12234.

When creating a key with a lifetime that places it in a secure
element, retrieve the appropriate driver table entry.
This commit doesn't yet achieve behavior: so far the code only
retrieves the driver, it doesn't call the driver.
Expose the type of an entry in the SE driver table as an opaque type
to other library modules. Soon, driver table entries will have state,
and callers will need to be able to access this state through
functions using this opaque type.
Provide functions to look up a driver by its lifetime and to retrieve
the method table from an entry.

The window size variable in ecp_pick_window_size() can take values
4, 5 or 6, but we clamp it not to exceed the value of
MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE. If that is 6 (default) or higher, the
static analyzer will point out that the test:
w > MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE always evaluates to false.
This commit removes the test for the cases of the window size
large enough to fit all the potential values of the variable.
The psa_tls12_prf_set_seed() and psa_tls12_prf_set_label() functions did
not work on platforms where malloc(0) returns NULL.
It does not affect the TLS use case but these PRFs are used in other
protocols as well and might not be used the same way. For example EAP
uses the TLS PRF with an empty secret. (This would not trigger the bug,
but is a strong indication that it is not safe to assume that certain
inputs to this function are not zero length.)
The conditional block includes the memcpy() call as well to avoid
passing a NULL pointer as a parameter resulting in undefined behaviour.
The current tests are already using zero length label and seed, there is
no need to add new test for this bug.
