After merging the latest RSA implementation from Mbed TLS, we have a
regression in that we no longer properly handle zero-length null output
in PKCS1 v1.5 decryption. Prevent undefined behavior by avoiding a
memcpy() to zero-length null output buffers.
Merge a development version of Mbed TLS 2.16.0 that doesn't have
parameter validation into development.
The following conflicts were resolved:
- Update ChangeLog to include release notes merged from development so
far, with a version of "2.14.0+01b34fb316a5" and release date of
"xxxx-xx-xx" to show this is not a released version, but instead a
snapshot of the development branch equivalent to version of the 2.14.0
with additional commits from the mbedtls/development branch up through
01b34fb316 included. Entries added for unreleased versions of Mbed
Crypto remain at the top of the file for Mbed TLS 2.xx.x.
- Replace the Mbed Crypto version of
mbedtls_rsa_rsaes_pkcs1_v15_decrypt() with the version from Mbed TLS
which fixes timing variations and memory access variations that could
lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle attack. This will
prevent using psa_asymmetric_decrypt() with zero-length output buffers
until a follow up commit is made to restore this capability.
- In ssl_srv.c, include changes for both the new ECDH interface and
opaque PSK as already added to development previously.
Context: There are two public key writing functions in Mbed TLS. First,
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey(), which exports a public key in the form of a
SubjectPublicKey structure containing the raw keying material
(for example, EC point coordinates for an EC public key, without
reference to the underlying curve). Secondly, mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der(),
which exports a public key in the form of a SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure,
wrapping the SubjectPublicKey structure by additional information
identifying the type of public key (and for ECC, e.g., it'd also contain
the ECC group identifier). The implementation of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der()
calls mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() first and then adds the corresponding
algorithm identifier wrapper.
Both of these functions need to be provided for PSA-based opaque PK contexts,
based on PSA's public key export function.
Previously, PSA used the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure as its export format,
so mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() could be easily implemented, while
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() would need to trim the output of the PSA export.
The previous implementation of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() is not quite right
because it calls PSA export doesn't do any trimming, hence exporting the large
SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure instead of the small SubjectPublicKey.
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der(), in turn, immediately returns after calling
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey(), hence also returning the SubjectPublicKeyInfo
structure, which is correct.
By now, the PSA public key export format has changed to the smaller
SubjectPublicKey structure. This means that, now, mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey()
can be implemented by just calling the PSA export, and that
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() needs to add the algorithm information around
it, just as in the other types of PK contexts. While not correct for the
old format, the existing code for mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() is therefore
correct for the new PSA public key format, and needs no change apart from
the missing pointer shift in the last commit.
The implementation of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() needs a special code
path for PSA-based opaque PK contexts, as the PK context only contains
the PSA key handle, and the PSA API needs to be used to extract the
underlying EC curve to be able to write the AlgorithmParameter structure
that's part of the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure.
That's what this commit does, (hopefully) making both
mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() and mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der() export
the correctly formatted public key based on the new PSA public key format.
Previously, PSA used SubjectPublicKeyInfo structures to serialize EC public keys.
This has recently been changed to using ECPoint structures instead, but the wrapper
making PSA ECDSA verification available through Mbed TLS' PK API hasn't yet been
adapted accordingly - which is what this commit does.
Luckily, Mbed TLS' PK API offers two functions mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey()
and mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der(), the latter exporting a SubjectPublicKeyInfo
structure and the former exporting an ECPoint structure in case of EC public
keys. For the adaptation of the ECDSA wrapper ecdsa_verify_wrap() it is therefore
sufficient to use mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey() instead of mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der().
Remove extra status handling code from psa_import_key_into_slot(). This
helps save a tiny amount of code space, but mainly serves to improve the
readability of the code.
Move pk-using code to inside psa_import_rsa_key(). This aligns the shape
of psa_import_rsa_key() to match that of psa_import_ec_private_key() and
psa_import_ec_public_key().
Remove front matter from our EC key format, to make it just the contents
of an ECPoint as defined by SEC1 section 2.3.3.
As a consequence of the simplification, remove the restriction on not
being able to use an ECDH key with ECDSA. There is no longer any OID
specified when importing a key, so we can't reject importing of an ECDH
key for the purpose of ECDSA based on the OID.
Use the PSA-native status type in psa_key_agreement_ecdh() in
preparation for us calling PSA functions (and not just Mbed TLS
functions) and still being able to return a psa_status_t (without having
to translate it to a Mbed TLS error and then back again).
Remove pkcs-1 and rsaEncryption front matter from RSA public keys. Move
code that was shared between RSA and other key types (like EC keys) to
be used only with non-RSA keys.
Remove the type and bits arguments to psa_allocate_key() and
psa_create_key(). They can be useful if the implementation wants to
know exactly how much space to allocate for the slot, but many
implementations (including ours) don't care, and it's possible to work
around their lack by deferring size-dependent actions to the time when
the key material is created. They are a burden to applications and
make the API more complex, and the benefits aren't worth it.
Change the API and adapt the implementation, the units test and the
sample code accordingly.
When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SPM is defined, the code is being built for SPM (Secure Partition Manager)
integration which separates the code into two parts: NSPE (Non-Secure Processing Environment) and SPE
(Secure Processing Environment). When building for the SPE, an additional header file should be included.
You can use PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH to build the algorithm value for a
hash-and-sign algorithm in a policy. Then the policy allows usage with
this hash-and-sign family with any hash.
Test that PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH-based policies allow a specific hash, but
not a different hash-and-sign family. Test that PSA_ALG_ANY_HASH is
not valid for operations, only in policies.
Previously we weren't initializing the freshly allocated ECP keypair
when importing private EC keys. This didn't seem to cause problems, at
least according to our current test coverage, but it's better to ensure
we don't have a partially initialized object by explicitly initializing
the keypair.
Use `cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Asan` rather than manually setting
`-fsanitize=address`. This lets cmake determine the necessary compiler
and linker flags.
With UNSAFE_BUILD on, force -Wno-error. This is necessary to build
with MBEDTLS_TEST_NULL_ENTROPY.
Add new initializers for key policies and use them in our docs, example
programs, tests, and library code. Prefer using the macro initializers
due to their straightforwardness.
Some of the documentation is obsolete in its reference to key slots
when it should discuss key handles. This may require a further pass,
possibly with some reorganization of error codes.
Update the documentation of functions that modify key slots (key
material creation and psa_set_key_policy()) to discuss how they affect
storage.
