When a trusted CA is rolling its root keys, it could happen that for some
users the list of trusted roots contains two versions of the same CA with the
same name but different keys. Currently this is supported but wasn't tested.
Note: the intermediate file test-ca-alt.csr is commited on purpose, as not
commiting intermediate files causes make to regenerate files that we don't
want it to touch.
As we accept EE certs that are explicitly trusted (in the list of trusted
roots) and usually look for parent by subject, and in the future we might want
to avoid checking the self-signature on trusted certs, there could a risk that we
incorrectly accept a cert that looks like a trusted root except it doesn't
have the same key. This test ensures this will never happen.
The tests cover chains of length 0, 1 and 2, with one error, located at any of
the available levels in the chain. This exercises all three call sites of
f_vrfy (two in verify_top, one in verify_child). Chains of greater length
would not cover any new code path or behaviour that I can see.
Previously, 2048-bit and 4096-bit RSA key files had their bitsize indicated in their filename, while the original
1024-bit keys hadn't. This commit unifies the naming scheme by always indicating the bitsize in the filename.
This commit adds the commands used to generate the various RSA keys to tests/Makefile so that they can be easily
regenerated or modified, e.g. if larger key sizes or other encryption algorithms need to be tested in the future.
With SHA-1 deprecation, we need a few certificates using algorithms in
the default support list. Most tests still use SHA-1 though.
The generation process for the new certificates is recorded in the makefile.
