mbedtls_aes_crypt_xts() currently takes a `bits_length` parameter, unlike
the other block modes. Change the parameter to accept a bytes length
instead, as the `bits_length` parameter is not actually ever used in the
current implementation.
Add a new context structure for XTS. Adjust the API for XTS to use the new
context structure, including tests suites and the benchmark program. Update
Doxgen documentation accordingly.
AES-XEX is a building block for other cryptographic standards and not yet a
standard in and of itself. We'll just provide the standardized AES-XTS
algorithm, and not AES-XEX. The AES-XTS algorithm and interface provided
can be used to perform the AES-XEX algorithm when the length of the input
is a multiple of the AES block size.
XTS mode is fully known as "xor-encrypt-xor with ciphertext-stealing".
This is the generalization of the XEX mode.
This implementation is limited to an 8-bits (1 byte) boundary, which
doesn't seem to be what was thought considering some test vectors [1].
This commit comes with tests, extracted from [1], and benchmarks.
Although, benchmarks aren't really nice here, as they work with a buffer
of a multiple of 16 bytes, which isn't a challenge for XTS compared to
XEX.
[1] http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/cavp/documents/aes/XTSTestVectors.zip
The test cases come from the XTS test vectors given by the CAVP initiative
from NIST (see [1]).
As mentioned in a previous commit, XEX is a simpler case of XTS.
Therefore, to construct the test_suite_aes.xex.data file, extraction of
the XEX-possible cases has been done on the given test vectors.
All of the extracted test vectors pass the tests on a Linux x86_64 machine.

This patch uses grep to search the GDB output for errors as there is
a bug in the tool that causes it to return 0 to the system even though
there was a problem in the script.
This patch also fixes the zeroize test to work with the --keep-going
option in all.sh.
Adds error handling into mbedtls_aes_crypt_ofb for AES errors, a self-test
for the OFB mode using NIST SP 800-38A test vectors and adds a check to
potential return errors in setting the AES encryption key in the OFB test
suite.

Motivation is similar to NO_UDBL_DIVISION.
The alternative implementation of 64-bit mult is straightforward and aims at
obvious correctness. Also, visual examination of the generate assembly show
that it's quite efficient with clang, armcc5 and arm-clang. However current
GCC generates fairly inefficient code for it.
I tried to rework the code in order to make GCC generate more efficient code.
Unfortunately the only way to do that is to get rid of 64-bit add and handle
the carry manually, but this causes other compilers to generate less efficient
code with branches, which is not acceptable from a side-channel point of view.
So let's keep the obvious code that works for most compilers and hope future
versions of GCC learn to manage registers in a sensible way in that context.
See https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded/+bug/1775263
Commit 08c337d058 "Remove useless parameter from function" removed the
parameter mode from the functions mbedtls_aria_crypt_ecb() which broke their
respective test suite.
This commit fixes those test cases.
Allowing DECRYPT with crypt_and_tag is a risk as people might fail to check
the tag correctly (or at all). So force them to use auth_decrypt() instead.

- need HW failure codes too
- re-use relevant poly codes for chachapoly to save on limited space
Values were chosen to leave 3 free slots at the end of the NET odd range.
This module used (len, pointer) while (pointer, len) is more common in the
rest of the library, in particular it's what's used in the CMAC API that is
very comparable to Poly1305, so switch to (pointer, len) for consistency.
In addition to making the APIs of the various AEAD modules more consistent
with each other, it's useful to have an auth_decrypt() function so that we can
safely check the tag ourselves, as the user might otherwise do it in an
insecure way (or even forget to do it altogether).
While the old name is explicit and aligned with the RFC, it's also very long,
so with the mbedtls_ prefix prepended we get a 31-char prefix to each
identifier, which quickly conflicts with our 80-column policy.
The new name is shorter, it's what a lot of people use when speaking about
that construction anyway, and hopefully should not introduce confusion at
it seems unlikely that variants other than 20/1305 be standardised in the
foreseeable future.
This implementation is based off the description in RFC 7539.
The ChaCha20 code is also updated to provide a means of generating
keystream blocks with arbitrary counter values. This is used to
generated the one-time Poly1305 key in the AEAD construction.

The certificate passed to async callbacks may not be the one set by
mbedtls_ssl_conf_own_cert. For example, when using an SNI callback,
it's whatever the callback is using. Document this, and add a test
case (and code sample) with SNI.
Add a test case for SSL asynchronous signature where f_async_resume is
called twice. Verify that f_async_sign_start is only called once.
This serves as a non-regression test for a bug where f_async_sign_start
was only called once, which turned out to be due to a stale build
artifacts with mismatched numerical values of
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS.
Testing the case where the resume callback returns an error at the
beginning and the case where it returns an error at the end is
redundant. Keep the test after the output has been produced, to
validate that the product does not use even a valid output if the
return value is an error code.
Document how the SSL async sign callback must treat its md_alg and
hash parameters when doing an RSA signature: sign-the-hash if md_alg
is nonzero (TLS 1.2), and sign-the-digestinfo if md_alg is zero
(TLS <= 1.1).
In ssl_server2, don't use md_alg=MBEDTLS_MD_NONE to indicate that
ssl_async_resume must perform an encryption, because md_alg is also
MBEDTLS_MD_NONE in TLS <= 1.1. Add a test case to exercise this
case (signature with MBEDTLS_MD_NONE).

Improve the position of the breakpoint to be set at a line of code that
is less likely to be optimised out by the compiler. Setting the breakpoint
at a place that can be easily optimised out by the compiler will cause the
gdb script to fail as it cannot match the source code line to the
compiled code. For this reason the breakpoint is now set at the fclose()
call which is very unlikely to be optimised out or there might be a
resource leak.
The gdb script loads the programs/test/zeroize program and feeds it as
imput its own source code. Then sets a breakpoint just before the last
program's return code and checks that every element in memory was
zeroized. Otherwise it signals a failure and terminates.
The test was added to all.sh.
The specification requires that numbers are the raw entropy (except for odd/
even) and at least 2^(nbits-0.5). If not, new random bits need to be used for
the next number. Similarly, if the number is not prime new random bits need to
be used.

addition. In addition some of the additions in the
iotssl-1381-x509-verify-refactor-restricted branch need support for

Because of the two optional fields, there are 4 possible variants that need to
be parsed: no optional fields, only parameters, only public key, and both
optional fields. Previously mbedTLS was unable to parse keys with "only
parameters". Also, only "only public key" was tested. There was a test for "no
optional fields", but it was labelled incorrectly as SEC.1 and not run because
of a great renaming mixup.
Only delete things that we expect to find, to avoid deleting other
things that people might have lying around in their build tree.
Explicitly skip .git to avoid e.g. accidentally matching a branch
name.
All options can now be overridden by a subsequent option, e.g.
"all.sh --foo --no-foo" is equivalent to "all.sh --no-foo". This
allows making wrapper scripts with default options and occasionally
overriding those options when running the wrapper script.
Previously, the idling loop in ssl_server2 didn't check whether
the underlying call to mbedtls_net_poll signalled that the socket
became invalid. This had the consequence that during idling, the
server couldn't be terminated through a SIGTERM, as the corresponding
handler would only close the sockets and expect the remainder of
the program to shutdown gracefully as a consequence of this.
This was subsequently attempted to be fixed through a change
in ssl-opt.sh by terminating the server through a KILL signal,
which however lead to other problems when the latter was run
under valgrind.
This commit changes the idling loop in ssl_server2 and ssl_client2
to obey the return code of mbedtls_net_poll and gracefully shutdown
if an error occurs, e.g. because the socket was closed.
As a consequence, the server termination via a KILL signal in
ssl-opt.sh is no longer necessary, with the previous `kill; wait`
pattern being sufficient. The commit reverts the corresponding
change.
The UDP tests involving the merging of multiple records into single
datagrams accumulate records for 10ms, which can be less than the
total flight preparation time if e.g. the tests are being run with
valgrind.
This commit increases the packing time for the relevant tests
from 10ms to 50ms.
The 'critical' boolean can be set to false in two ways:
- by leaving it implicit (test data generated by openssl)
- by explicitly setting it to false (generated by hand)
This covers all lines added in the previous commit. Coverage was tested using:
make CFLAGS='--coverage -g3 -O0'
(cd tests && ./test_suite_x509parse)
make lcov
firefox Coverage/index.html # then visual check
Test data was generated by taking a copy of tests/data_files/crl-idp.pem,
encoding it as hex, and then manually changing the values of some bytes to
achieve the desired errors, using https://lapo.it/asn1js/ for help in locating
the desired bytes.

(Also tested with same command but CC=gcc)
Another PR will address improving all.sh and/or the depend-xxx.pl scripts
themselves to catch this kind of thing.

Extend the pkparse test suite with the newly created keys
encrypted using PKCS#8 with PKCS#5 v2.0 with PRF being
SHA224, 256, 384 and 512.
Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@openvpn.net>
We now have support for the entire SHA family to be used as
PRF in PKCS#5 v2.0, therefore we need to add new keys to test
these new functionalities.
This patch adds the new keys in `tests/data_files` and
commands to generate them in `tests/data_files/Makefile`.
Note that the pkcs8 command in OpenSSL 1.0 called with
the -v2 argument generates keys using PKCS#5 v2.0 with SHA1
as PRF by default.
(This behaviour has changed in OpenSSL 1.1, where the exact same
command instead uses PKCS#5 v2.0 with SHA256)
The new keys are generated by specifying different PRFs with
-v2prf.

Test vectors for SHA224,256,384 and 512 have been
generated using Python's hashlib module by the
following oneliner:
import binascii, hashlib
binascii.hexlify(hashlib.pbkdf2_hmac(ALGO, binascii.unhexlify('PASSWORD'), binascii.unhexlify('SALT'), ITER, KEYLEN)))
where ALGO was 'sha224', 'sha256', 'sha384' and 'sha512'
respectively.
Values for PASSWORD, SALT, ITER and KEYLEN were copied from the
existent test vectors for SHA1.
For SHA256 we also have two test vectors coming from RFC7914 Sec 11.

Currently only SHA1 is supported as PRF algorithm for PBKDF2
(PKCS#5 v2.0).
This means that keys encrypted and authenticated using
another algorithm of the SHA family cannot be decrypted.
This deficiency has become particularly incumbent now that
PKIs created with OpenSSL1.1 are encrypting keys using
hmacSHA256 by default (OpenSSL1.0 used PKCS#5 v1.0 by default
and even if v2 was forced, it would still use hmacSHA1).
Enable support for all the digest algorithms of the SHA
family for PKCS#5 v2.0.

1. Style issues fixes - remove redundant spacing.
2. Remove depency of `MBEDTLS_RSA_C` in `pk_parse_public_keyfile_rsa()`
tests, as the function itself is dependent on it.
Build with MBEDTLS_HAVE_INT32 and MBEDTLS_HAVE_INT64 on all
architectures, not just x86_64. These two modes should work on all
platforms (except embedded environments where 64-bit division is not
available).
Also run the unit tests.
Correct the description: this is not "N-bit compilation", but "N-bit
bignum limbs".
This change fixes a problem in the tests pk_rsa_alt() and
pk_rsa_overflow() from test_suite_pk.function that would cause a
segmentation fault. The problem is that these tests are only designed
to run in computers where the SIZE_MAX > UINT_MAX.
Change function in tests named mbedtls_entropy_func to
mbedtls_test_entropy_func to avoid getting error from the linker when
calling the mbedtls_entropy_func elsewhere.
The _ext suffix suggests "new arguments", but the new functions have
the same arguments. Use _ret instead, to convey that the difference is
that the new functions return a value.
If lsof is not available, wait_server_start uses a fixed timeout,
which can trigger a race condition if the timeout turns out to be too
short. Emit a warning so that we know this is going on from the test
logs.
- Some of the CI machines don't have lsof installed yet, so rely on an sleeping
an arbitrary number of seconds while the server starts. We're seeing
occasional failures with the current delay because the CI machines are highly
loaded, which seems to indicate the current delay is not quite enough, but
hopefully not to far either, so double it.
- While at it, also double the watchdog delay: while I don't remember seeing
much failures due to client timeout, this change doesn't impact normal
running time of the script, so better err on the safe side.
These changes don't affect the test and should only affect the false positive
rate coming from the test framework in those scripts.
Conflict resolution:
* ChangeLog: put the new entries in their rightful place.
* library/x509write_crt.c: the change in development was whitespace
only, so use the one from the iotssl-1251 feature branch.
1) `mbedtls_rsa_import_raw` used an uninitialized return
value when it was called without any input parameters.
While not sensible, this is allowed and should be a
succeeding no-op.
2) The MPI test for prime generation missed a return value
check for a call to `mbedtls_mpi_shift_r`. This is neither
critical nor new but should be fixed.
3) Both the RSA keygeneration example program and the
RSA test suites 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 of the respective function orphaned.
While this defect existed before, Coverity picked up on
it again because of newly introduced MPI's that were
also wrongly initialized only after the call to CTR DRBG
init. The commit fixes both the old and the new issue
by moving the initializtion of both the RSA context and
all MPI's prior to the first potentially failing call.

During the work on the RSA change the issue was brought up,
and a fix was provided on development, that some RSA tests
use CTR DRBG and depend on the presence of a strong entropy
source to succeed. The RSA work introduced more tests using
CTR DRBG, and the dependency needs to be added for them, too.
Add --keep-going mode to all.sh. In this mode, if a test fails, keep
running the subsequent tests. If a build fails, skip any tests of this
build and move on to the next tests. Errors in infrastructure, such as
git or cmake runs, remain fatal. Print an error summary at the end of
the run, and return a nonzero code if there was any failure.
In known terminal types, use color to highlight errors.
On a fatal signal, interrupt the run and report the errors so far.
If timing_timer_simple fails because it detects that timers are likely
to never expire (e.g. going backward or not incrementing), skip all
tests that rely on timers.
Do test mbedtls_timing_hardclock. We can't reliably test much about
it, but at least test that it doesn't crash, isn't constant, and
doesn't look completely random.
New set of unit tests for the timing module, instead of just running
the selftest function.
The selftest function sometimes fails on a heavily loaded
machine (such as a typical continuous integration system). Because of
the all-in-one nature of the test and because the exact load pattern
can be hard to reproduce, it is difficult to diagnose failures of CI
runs with selftest. The new tests are more separated and I strove to
point out potential failure modes in comments.
* mbedtls_timing_hardclock: not tested. This function gives so few
guarantees that there isn't much to test, and it is hard to test
reliably because clock cycles don't easily relate to time in any
remotely portable way. This function isn't used in the library
anyway, it's only there for benchmark programs.
* mbedtls_timing_get_timer: tested by setting a timer and verifying
that it reaches its target, and by verifying that a timer started
later than another always has a smaller elapsed time.
* mbedtls_set_alarm: tested by setting an alarm, busy-waiting for it
and measuring the elapsed time with a timer.
* mbedtls_timing_set_delay, mbedtls_timing_get_delay: tested by
setting a delay object and watching it go through its two delay
values, using a timer to check that the delays are passed at the
expected time.
The tests pass under light to moderate load, but some of them can be
defeated with sufficiently heavy load. This is unavoidable since the
test process to be effectively suspended for any length of time,
making us think that a timer has gone on for too long.
