This error occurs when free space in the buffer is in the middle (the buffer has come full circle) and function mbedtls_test_buffer_put is called. Then the arguments for memcpy are calculated incorrectly and program ends with segmentation fault
Before, the string to parse may contain trailing garbage (there was
never more than one byte), and there was a separate argument
indicating the length of the content. Now, the string to parse is the
exact content, and the test code runs an extra test step with a
trailing byte added.
If there was a fatal error (bizarre behavior from the standard
library, or missing test data file), execute_tests did not close the
outcome file. Fix this.
Fix get_len_step when buffer_size==0. The intent of this test is to
ensure (via static or runtime buffer overflow analysis) that
mbedtls_asn1_get_len does not attempt to access beyond the end of the
buffer. When buffer_size is 0 (reached from get_len when parsing a
1-byte buffer), the buffer is buf[1..1] because allocating a 0-byte
buffer might yield a null pointer rather than a valid pointer. In this
case the end of the buffer is p==buf+1, not buf+buffer_size which is
buf+0.
The test passed because calling mbedtls_asn1_get_len(&p,end,...) with
end < p happens to work, but this is not guaranteed.
If Y was constructed through functions in this module, then Y->n == 0
iff Y->p == NULL. However we do not prevent filling mpi structures
manually, and zero may be represented with n=0 and p a valid pointer.
Most of the code can cope with such a representation, but for the
source of mbedtls_mpi_copy, this would cause an integer underflow.
Changing the test for zero from Y->p==NULL to Y->n==0 causes this case
to work at no extra cost.
If psa_mac_finish_internal fails (which can only happen due to bad
parameters or hardware problem), the error code was converted to
PSA_ERROR_INVALID_SIGNATURE if the uninitialized stack variable
actual_mac happened to contain the expected MAC. This is a minor bug
but it may be possible to leverage it as part of a longer attack path
in some scenarios.
Reported externally. Found by static analysis.
Before the initial seeding, reseed_counter used to always be 0. Now, the
value depends on whether or not the user has explicitly set the amount
of data to get from the nonce (via e.g.
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len()). Add comments to clarify the possible
values reseed_counter can have before the initial seeding.
The library style is to start with the includes corresponding to the
current module and then the rest in alphabetical order. Some modules
have several header files (eg. ssl_internal.h).
The recently added error.h includes did not respect this convention and
this commit restores it. In some cases this is not possible just by
moving the error.h declarations. This commit fixes the pre-existing
order in these instances too.
Now that the Error module has error codes as well and is processed by
the generate_errors script like any other module, we don't need to
include the header manually.
