This commit duplicates the public function mbedtls_asn1_find_named_data()
defined in library/asn1parse.c within library/asn1write.c in order to
avoid a dependency of the ASN.1 writing module on the ASN.1 parsing module.
The duplication is unproblematic from a semantic and an efficiency
perspective becasue it is just a short list traversal that doesn't
actually do any ASN.1 parsing.
This PR fixes multiple issues in the source code to address issues raised by
tests/scripts/check-files.py. Specifically:
* incorrect file permissions
* missing newline at the end of files
* trailing whitespace
* Tabs present
* TODOs in the souce code
In case an entry with the given OID already exists in the list passed to
mbedtls_asn1_store_named_data() and there is not enough memory to allocate
room for the new value, the existing entry will be freed but the preceding
entry in the list will sill hold a pointer to it. (And the following entries
in the list are no longer reachable.) This results in memory leak or a double
free.
The issue is we want to leave the list in a consistent state on allocation
failure. (We could add a warning that the list is left in inconsistent state
when the function returns NULL, but behaviour changes that require more care
from the user are undesirable, especially in a stable branch.)
The chosen solution is a bit inefficient in that there is a time where both
blocks are allocated, but at least it's safe and this should trump efficiency
here: this code is only used for generating certificates, which is unlikely to
be done on very constrained devices, or to be in the critical loop of
anything. Also, the sizes involved should be fairly small anyway.
fixes#367
In BER encoding, any boolean with a non-zero value is considered as
TRUE. However, DER encoding require a value of 255 (0xFF) for TRUE.
This commit makes `mbedtls_asn1_write_bool` function uses `255` instead
of `1` for BOOLEAN values.
With this fix, boolean values are now reconized by OS X keychain (tested
on OS X 10.11).
Fixes#318.
