This option allows to test the constant-flow nature of selected code, using
MemSan and the fundamental observation behind ctgrind that the set of
operations allowed on undefined memory by dynamic analysers is the same as the
set of operations allowed on secret data to avoid leaking it to a local
attacker via side channels, namely, any operation except branching and
dereferencing.
(This isn't the full story, as on some CPUs some instructions have variable
execution depending on the inputs, most notably division and on some cores
multiplication. However, testing that no branch or memory access depends on
secret data is already a good start.)

The dummy implementation is not constant-flow at all for now, it's just
here as a starting point and a support for developing the tests and putting
the infrastructure in place.
Depending on the implementation strategy, there might be various corner cases
depending on where the lengths fall relative to block boundaries. So it seems
safer to just test all possible lengths in a given range than to use only a
few randomly-chosen values.

inv_mod() already returns a specific error code if the value is not

Using a stack-buffer with a size > 2K could easily produce a stack
overflow for an embedded device which has a limited stack size.
This commit dynamically allocates the large CSR buffer.
This commit avoids using a temporary buffer for storing the OIDs.
A single buffer is used:
a) OIDs are written backwards starting with the end of the buffer;
b) OIDs are memmove'd to the beginning of the buffer;
c) signature over this OIDs is computed and written backwards from the
end of the buffer;
d) the two memory regions are compacted.

This commit rewrites mbedtls_x509write_crt_pem() to not use
a statically size stack buffer to temporarily store the DER
encoded form of the certificate to be written.
This is not necessary because the DER-to-PEM conversion
accepts overlapping input and output buffers.
The CRT writing routine mbedtls_x509write_crt_der() prepares the TBS
(to-be-signed) part of the CRT in a temporary stack-allocated buffer,
copying it to the actual output buffer at the end of the routine.
This comes at the cost of a very large stack buffer. Moreover, its size
must be hardcoded to an upper bound for the lengths of all CRTs to be
written through the routine. So far, this upper bound was set to 2Kb, which
isn't sufficient some larger certificates, as was reported e.g. in #2631.
This commit fixes this by changing mbedtls_x509write_crt_der() to write
the certificate in-place in the output buffer, thereby avoiding the use
of a statically sized stack buffer for the TBS.
Fixes#2631.
- it's 2020, there shouldn't be too many systems out there where SHA-1 is the
only available hash option, so its usefulness is limited
- OTOH testing configurations without SHA-2 reveal bugs that are not easy to

So overall, the benefit/cost ratio is not good enough to justify keeping SHA-1
as a fallback option here.

The dependency on a DRBG module was perhaps a bit strict for LTS branches, so
let's have an option that works with no DRBG when at least one SHA module is
present.
This changes the internal API of ecp_drbg_seed() by adding the size of the
MPI as a parameter. Re-computing the size from the number of limbs doesn't
work too well here as we're writing out to a fixed-size buffer and for some
curves (P-521) that would round up too much. Using mbedtls_mpi_get_len() is
not entirely satisfactory either as it would mean using a variable-length
encoding, with could open side channels.

Checking the budget only after the randomization is done means sometimes we
were randomizing first, then noticing we ran out of budget, return, come back
and randomize again before we finally normalize.
While this is fine from a correctness and security perspective, it's a minor

Unless MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG is defined, it's no longer possible for

Eliminate the NULL check in this case:
- it makes it clearer to reviewers that randomization always happens (unless
the user opted out at compile time)
- a NULL check in a place where it's easy to prove the value is never NULL
might upset or confuse static analyzers (including humans)

Currently we draw pseudo-random numbers at the beginning and end of the main
loop. With ECP_RESTARTABLE, it's possible that between those two occasions we
returned from the multiplication function, hence lost our internal DRBG
context that lives in this function's stack frame. This would result in the
same pseudo-random numbers being used for blinding in multiple places. While
it's not immediately clear that this would give rise to an attack, it's also
absolutely not clear that it doesn't. So let's avoid that by using a DRBG
context that lives inside the restart context and persists across
return/resume cycles. That way the RESTARTABLE case uses exactly the
same pseudo-random numbers as the non-restartable case.
Testing and compile-time options:
- The case ECP_RESTARTABLE && !ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG is already tested by
component_test_no_use_psa_crypto_full_cmake_asan.
- The case ECP_RESTARTABLE && ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG didn't have a pre-existing
test so a component is added.
Testing and runtime options: when ECP_RESTARTABLE is enabled, the test suites
already contain cases where restart happens and cases where it doesn't
(because the operation is short enough or because restart is disabled (NULL
restart context)).

While it seems cleaner and more convenient to set it in the top-level
mbedtls_ecp_mul() function, the existence of the restartable option changes
things - when it's enabled the drbg context needs to be saved in the restart
context (more precisely in the restart_mul sub-context), which can only be
done when it's allocated, which is in the curve-specific mul function.
This commit only internal drbg management from mbedtls_ecp_mul() to
ecp_mul_mxz() and ecp_mul_comb(), without modifying behaviour (even internal),
and a future commit will modify the ecp_mul_comb() version to handle restart

The case of MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE isn't handled correctly yet: in that case
the DRBG instance should persist when resuming the operation. This will be
addressed in the next commit.
When both CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG are available, CTR_DRBG is preferred since
both are suitable but CTR_DRBG tends to be faster and I needed a tie-breaker.
There are currently three possible cases to test:
- NO_INTERNAL_RNG is set -> tested in test_ecp_no_internal_rng
- it's unset and CTR_DRBG is available -> tested in the default config
- it's unset and CTR_DRBG is disabled -> tested in

The function mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs first checked that A >= B and then
performed the subtraction, relying on the fact that A >= B to
guarantee that the carry propagation would stop, and not taking
advantage of the fact that the carry when subtracting two numbers can
only be 0 or 1. This made the carry propagation code a little hard to
follow.
Write an ad hoc loop for the carry propagation, checking the size of
the result. This makes termination obvious.
The initial check that A >= B is no longer needed, since the function
now checks that the carry propagation terminates, which is equivalent.
This is a slight performance gain.

There was some confusion during review about when A->p[n] could be
nonzero. In fact, there is no need to set A->p[n]: only the

calculation in a way that should be easier to follow.

The function mpi_sub_hlp had confusing semantics: although it took a
size parameter, it accessed the limb array d beyond this size, to
propagate the carry. This made the function difficult to understand
and analyze, with a potential buffer overflow if misused (not enough
room to propagate the carry).
Change the function so that it only performs the subtraction within
the specified number of limbs, and returns the carry.
Move the carry propagation out of mpi_sub_hlp and into its caller
mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs. This makes the code of subtraction very slightly
less neat, but not significantly different.
In the one other place where mpi_sub_hlp is used, namely mpi_montmul,
this is a net win because the carry is potentially sensitive data and
the function carefully arranges to not have to propagate it.

mpi_sub_hlp performs a subtraction A - B, but took parameters in the

In mpi_montmul, an auxiliary function for modular
exponentiation (mbedtls_mpi_mod_exp) that performs Montgomery
multiplication, the last step is a conditional subtraction to force
the result into the correct range. The current implementation uses a
branch and therefore may leak information about secret data to an
adversary who can observe what branch is taken through a side channel.
Avoid this potential leak by always doing the same subtraction and
doing a contant-trace conditional assignment to set the result.

This reverts commit 2cc69fffcf.
A check was added in mpi_montmul because clang-analyzer warned about a
possibly null pointer. However this was a false positive. Recent
versions of clang-analyzer no longer emit a warning (3.6 does, 6
doesn't).
Incidentally, the size check was wrong: mpi_montmul needs
T->n >= 2 * (N->n + 1), not just T->n >= N->n + 1.
Given that this is an internal function which is only used from one
public function and in a tightly controlled way, remove both the null
check (which is of low value to begin with) and the size check (which
would be slightly more valuable, but was wrong anyway). This allows
the function not to need to return an error, which makes the source
code a little easier to read and makes the object code a little
smaller.

When parsing a certificate with the basic constraints extension
the max_pathlen that was read from it was incremented regardless

Some code paths want to access members of the mbedtls_rsa_context structure.
We can only do that when using our own implementation, as otherwise we don't
know anything about that structure.
When parsing a PKCS#1 RSAPrivateKey structure, all parameters are always
present. After importing them, we need to call rsa_complete() for the sake of
alternative implementations. That function interprets zero as a signal for
"this parameter was not provided". As that's never the case, we mustn't pass
any zero value to that function, so we need to explicitly check for it.
This reverts commit 7550e857bf, reversing
changes made to d0c2575324.
stat() will never return S_IFLNK as the file type, as stat()
explicitly follows symlinks.
Fixes#3005.
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.
When mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_path() checks each object in the supplied path, it only processes regular files. This change makes it also accept a symlink to a file. Fixes#3005.
This was observed to be a problem on Fedora/CentOS/RHEL systems, where the ca-bundle in the default location is actually a symlink.

This issue has been reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
Dave Tian (Purdue University).
In AES encrypt and decrypt some variables were left on the stack. The value
of these variables can be used to recover the last round key. To follow best
practice and to limit the impact of buffer overread vulnerabilities (like
Heartbleed) we need to zeroize them before exiting the function.
In the case of *ret we might need to preserve a 0 value throughout the
loop and therefore we need an extra condition to protect it from being
overwritten.
The value of done is always 1 after *ret has been set and does not need
to be protected from overwriting. Therefore in this case the extra
condition can be removed.
The code relied on the assumptions that CHAR_BIT is 8 and that unsigned
does not have padding bits.
In the Bignum module we already assume that the sign of an MPI is either
-1 or 1. Using this, we eliminate the above mentioned dependency.
The signature of mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi_ct() meant to support using it in
place of mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi(). This meant full comparison functionality
and a signed result.
To make the function more universal and friendly to constant time
coding, we change the result type to unsigned. Theoretically, we could
encode the comparison result in an unsigned value, but it would be less
intuitive.
Therefore we won't be able to represent the result as unsigned anymore
and the functionality will be constrained to checking if the first
operand is less than the second. This is sufficient to support the
current use case and to check any relationship between MPIs.
The only drawback is that we need to call the function twice when
checking for equality, but this can be optimised later if an when it is
needed.
Multiplication is known to have measurable timing variations based on
the operands. For example it typically is much faster if one of the
operands is zero. Remove them from constant time code.
The blinding applied to the scalar before modular inversion is
inadequate. Bignum is not constant time/constant trace, side channel
attacks can retrieve the blinded value, factor it (it is smaller than
RSA keys and not guaranteed to have only large prime factors). Then the
key can be recovered by brute force.
Reducing the blinded value makes factoring useless because the adversary
can only recover pk*t+z*N instead of pk*t.
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed() always set the entropy length to the default,
so a call to mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() before seed() had no
effect. Change this to the more intuitive behavior that
set_entropy_len() sets the entropy length and seed() respects that and
only uses the default entropy length if there was no call to
set_entropy_len().
The former test-only function mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed_entropy_len() is
no longer used, but keep it for strict ABI compatibility.
Move the definitions of mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed_entropy_len() and
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed() to after they are used. This makes the code
easier to read and to maintain.
mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed() always set the entropy length to the default,
so a call to mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len() before seed() had no
effect. Change this to the more intuitive behavior that
set_entropy_len() sets the entropy length and seed() respects that and
only uses the default entropy length if there was no call to
set_entropy_len().

Adapt ChangeLog
Fix mpi_bigendian_to_host() on bigendian systems
This patch fixes an issue we encountered with more stringent compiler
warnings. The signature_is_good variable has a possibility of being
used uninitialized. This patch moves the use of the variable to a
place where it cannot be used while uninitialized.

According to SP800-90A, the DRBG seeding process should use a nonce
of length `security_strength / 2` bits as part of the DRBG seed. It
further notes that this nonce may be drawn from the same source of
entropy that is used for the first `security_strength` bits of the
DRBG seed. The present HMAC DRBG implementation does that, requesting
`security_strength * 3 / 2` bits of entropy from the configured entropy
source in total to form the initial part of the DRBG seed.
However, some entropy sources may have thresholds in terms of how much
entropy they can provide in a single call to their entropy gathering
function which may be exceeded by the present HMAC DRBG implementation
even if the threshold is not smaller than `security_strength` bits.
Specifically, this is the case for our own entropy module implementation
which only allows requesting at most 32 Bytes of entropy at a time
in configurations disabling SHA-512, and this leads to runtime failure
of HMAC DRBG when used with Mbed Crypto' own entropy callbacks in such
configurations.
This commit fixes this by splitting the seed entropy acquisition into
two calls, one requesting `security_strength` bits first, and another
one requesting `security_strength / 2` bits for the nonce.
Fixes#237.
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.

Changelog entry for HAVEGE fix
Prevent building the HAVEGE module on platforms where it doesn't work
Fix misuse of signed ints in the HAVEGE module
The failure of mbedtls_md was not checked in one place. This could have led
to an incorrect computation if a hardware accelerator failed. In most cases
this would have led to the key exchange failing, so the impact would have been
a hard-to-diagnose error reported in the wrong place. If the two sides of the
key exchange failed in the same way with an output from mbedtls_md that was
independent of the input, this could have led to an apparently successful key
exchange with a predictable key, thus a glitching md accelerator could have
caused a security vulnerability.
