1) The MPI test for prime generation missed a return value
check for a call to `mpi_shift_r`. This is neither
critical nor new but should be fixed.
2) The RSA keygeneration example program contained code
initializing an RSA context after a potentially failing
call to CTR DRBG initialization, leaving the corresponding
RSA context free call in the cleanup section orphaned.
The commit fixes this by moving the initializtion of the
RSA context prior to the first potentially failing call.
For a start, they don't even compile with Visual Studio due to strcasecmp
being missing. Secondly, on Windows Perl scripts aren't executable and have
to be run using the Perl interpreter directly; thankfully CMake is able to
find cygwin Perl straight away without problems.
For a key of size 8N+1, check that the first byte after applying the
public key operation is 0 (it could have been 1 instead). The code was
incorrectly doing a no-op check instead, which led to invalid
signatures being accepted. Not a security flaw, since you would need the
private key to craft such an invalid signature, but a bug nonetheless.
The check introduced by the previous security fix was off by one. It
fixed the buffer overflow but was not compliant with the definition of
PSS which technically led to accepting some invalid signatures (but
not signatures made without the private key).
Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS signature verification when the hash is
too large for the key size. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm.
Added a non-regression test and a positive test with the smallest
permitted key size for a SHA-512 hash.
A bug in the dhm_check_range() function makes it pass even when the
parameters are not in the range. This commit adds tests for signalling
this problem as well as a couple of other negative tests.
This commit adds the macro ENTROPY_HAVE_DEFAULT to the helper test file tests/suites/helpers.function to be able to make
tests depend on the presence of a default entropy source.
The function `rsa_gen_key` from `test_suite_rsa.function` initialized a stack allocated RSA context only after
seeding the CTR DRBG. If the latter operation failed, the cleanup code tried to free the uninitialized RSA context,
potentially resulting in a segmentation fault. Fixes one aspect of #1023.
The X509 test suite assumes that POLARSSL_X509_MAX_INTERMEDIATE_CA is below
the hardcoded threshold 20 used in the long certificate chain generating
script tests/data_files/dir-max/long.sh. This commit adds a compile-time
check for that.
If we didn't walk the whole chain, then there may be any kind of errors in the
part of the chain we didn't check, so setting all flags looks like the safe
thing to do.
Inspired by test code provided by Nicholas Wilson in PR #351.
The test will fail if someone sets MAX_INTERMEDIATE_CA to a value larger than
18 (default is 8), which is hopefully unlikely and can easily be fixed by
running long.sh again with a larger value if it ever happens.
Current behaviour is suboptimal as flags are not set, but currently the goal
is only to document/test existing behaviour.
