Some functions within the X.509 module return an ASN.1 low level
error code where instead this error code should be wrapped by a
high-level X.509 error code as in the bulk of the module.
Specifically, the following functions are affected:
- mbedtls_x509_get_ext()
- x509_get_version()
- x509_get_uid()
This commit modifies these functions to always return an
X.509 high level error code.
Care has to be taken when adapting `mbetls_x509_get_ext()`:
Currently, the callers `mbedtls_x509_crt_ext()` treat the
return code `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_UNEXPECTED_TAG` specially to
gracefully detect and continue if the extension structure is not
present. Wrapping the ASN.1 error with
`MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_INVALID_EXTENSIONS` and adapting the check
accordingly would mean that an unexpected tag somewhere
down the extension parsing would be ignored by the caller.
The way out of this is the following: Luckily, the extension
structure is always the last field in the surrounding structure,
so if there is some data remaining, it must be an Extension
structure, so we don't need to deal with a tag mismatch gracefully
in the first place.
We may therefore wrap the return code from the initial call to
`mbedtls_asn1_get_tag()` in `mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` by
`MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_INVALID_EXTENSIONS` and simply remove
the special treatment of `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_UNEXPECTED_TAG`
in the callers `x509_crl_get_ext()` and `x509_crt_get_ext()`.
This renders `mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` unsuitable if it ever
happened that an Extension structure is optional and does not
occur at the end of its surrounding structure, but for CRTs
and CRLs, it's fine.
The following tests need to be adapted:
- "TBSCertificate v3, issuerID wrong tag"
The issuerID is optional, so if we look for its presence
but find a different tag, we silently continue and try
parsing the subjectID, and then the extensions. The tag '00'
used in this test doesn't match either of these, and the
previous code would hence return LENGTH_MISMATCH after
unsucessfully trying issuerID, subjectID and Extensions.
With the new code, any data remaining after issuerID and
subjectID _must_ be Extension data, so we fail with
UNEXPECTED_TAG when trying to parse the Extension data.
- "TBSCertificate v3, UIDs, invalid length"
The test hardcodes the expectation of
MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_INVALID_LENGTH, which needs to be
wrapped in MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_INVALID_FORMAT now.
Fixes#2431.
When parsing a substructure of an ASN.1 structure, no field within
the substructure must exceed the bounds of the substructure.
Concretely, the `end` pointer passed to the ASN.1 parsing routines
must be updated to point to the end of the substructure while parsing
the latter.
This was previously not the case for the routines
- x509_get_attr_type_and_value(),
- mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext(),
- mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext().
These functions kept using the end of the parent structure as the
`end` pointer and would hence allow substructure fields to cross
the substructure boundary. This could lead to successful parsing
of ill-formed X.509 CRTs.
This commit fixes this.
Care has to be taken when adapting `mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext()`
and `mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext()`, as the underlying function
`mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` returns `0` if no extensions are present
but doesn't set the variable which holds the bounds of the Extensions
structure in case the latter is present. This commit addresses
this by returning early from `mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext()` and
`mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext()` if parsing has reached the end of
the input buffer.
The following X.509 parsing tests need to be adapted:
- "TBSCertificate, issuer two inner set datas"
This test exercises the X.509 CRT parser with a Subject name
which has two empty `AttributeTypeAndValue` structures.
This is supposed to fail with `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_OUT_OF_DATA`
because the parser should attempt to parse the first structure
and fail because of a lack of data. Previously, it failed to
obey the (0-length) bounds of the first AttributeTypeAndValue
structure and would try to interpret the beginning of the second
AttributeTypeAndValue structure as the first field of the first
AttributeTypeAndValue structure, returning an UNEXPECTED_TAG error.
- "TBSCertificate, issuer, no full following string"
This test exercises the parser's behaviour on an AttributeTypeAndValue
structure which contains more data than expected; it should therefore
fail with MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_LENGTH_MISMATCH. Because of the missing bounds
check, it previously failed with UNEXPECTED_TAG because it interpreted
the remaining byte in the first AttributeTypeAndValue structure as the
first byte in the second AttributeTypeAndValue structure.
- "SubjectAltName repeated"
This test should exercise two SubjectAltNames extensions in succession,
but a wrong length values makes the second SubjectAltNames extension appear
outside of the Extensions structure. With the new bounds in place, this
therefore fails with a LENGTH_MISMATCH error. This commit adapts the test
data to put the 2nd SubjectAltNames extension inside the Extensions
structure, too.
Set the next sequence of the subject_alt_name to NULL when deleting
sequence on failure in `get_subject_alt_name()`.

In case the certificate policy is not of type `AnyPolicy`
set the returned error code to `MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE`
and continue parsing. If the extension is critical, return error anyway,
unless `MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION` is configured.
Fail parsing on any other error.
Make `mbedtls_x509_subject_alternative_name` to be a single item
rather than a list. Adapt the subject alternative name parsing function,
to receive a signle `mbedtls_x509_buf` item from the subject_alt_names
sequence of the certificate.
The preceding calloc() already zeroizes that memory area, therfore the
memset() is not necessary. Compilers are likely to optimize this out,
but it still can be confusing to readers.
The previous behaviour of mbedtls_x509_parse_subject_alternative_name()
was to silently ignore errors coming from x509_get_other_name(). The
current commit fixes it and returns with an error.
In x509_info_subject_alt_name() we silently dropped names that we
couldn't parse because they are not supported or are malformed. (Being
malformed might mean damaged file, but can be a sign of incompatibility
between applications.)
This commit adds code notifying the user that there is something, but
we can't parse it.
Lengths are aleady checked in mbedtls_asn1_get_len() which is called in
mbedtls_asn1_get_tag(), therefore it is not necessary to check
the lengths explicitly afterwards.
Also with the previous flow data was left in the output buffer on some
errors.

So far, there were the following CRT verification functions:
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()` -- no profile, no restartable ECC
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` -- profile, no restartable ECC
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` -- profile, restartable ECC
all publicly declared and offering increasing functionality.
On the implementation-side,
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()` resolves to
a call to `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` setting
the profile to `NULL`, and
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()`
resolves to a call to ``mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()`
setting the ECC restart context to NULL.
This commit adds two more functions to this zoo:
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()`
- `x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()`
Here, `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()` is similar to
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` but uses a CA callback
instead of a static CA list, and no restart context.
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` is similar to
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` but allows to either use
a static list of trusted CAs _or_ a trusted CA callback.
On the implementation-side,
- the body of `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` is moved to
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()`, and the new version of
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` just resolves to
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` with the trusted CA callback
set to NULL.
- The new function `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()`
forward to `x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` with the restart
context set to `NULL`.
There's no change to the implementation yet, and in particular,
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()` isn't yet usable.
This commit adds an ASN.1 buffer field `pk_raw` to `mbedtls_x509_crt`
which stores the bounds of the raw public key data within an X.509 CRT.
This will be useful in subsequent commits to extract the peer's public
key from its certificate chain.
This commit improves hygiene and formatting of macro definitions
throughout the library. Specifically:
- It adds brackets around parameters to avoid unintended
interpretation of arguments, e.g. due to operator precedence.
- It adds uses of the `do { ... } while( 0 )` idiom for macros that
can be used as commands.
Context:
The existing API `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()` for parsing DER
encoded X.509 CRTs unconditionally makes creates a copy of the
input buffer in RAM. While this comes at the benefit of easy use,
-- specifically: allowing the user to free or re-use the input
buffer right after the call -- it creates a significant memory
overhead, as the CRT is duplicated in memory (at least temporarily).
This might not be tolerable a resource constrained device.
As a remedy, this commit adds a new X.509 API call
`mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der_nocopy()`
which has the same signature as `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()`
and almost the same semantics, with one difference: The input
buffer must persist and be unmodified for the lifetime of the
established instance of `mbedtls_x509_crt`, that is, until
`mbedtls_x509_crt_free()` is called.
Additional changes to temporarily enable running tests:
ssl_srv.c and test_suite_ecdh use mbedtls_ecp_group_load instead of
mbedtls_ecdh_setup
test_suite_ctr_drbg uses mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update instead of
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret
Previously, when checking whether a CRT was revoked through
one of the configured CRLs, the library would only consider
those CRLs whose `issuer` field binary-matches the `subject`
field of the CA that has issued the CRT in question. If those
fields were not binary equivalent, the corresponding CRL was
discarded.
This is not in line with RFC 5280, which demands that the
comparison should be format- and case-insensitive. For example:
- If the same string is once encoded as a `PrintableString` and
another time as a `UTF8String`, they should compare equal.
- If two strings differ only in their choice of upper and lower case
letters, they should compare equal.
This commit fixes this by using the dedicated x509_name_cmp()
function to compare the CRL issuer with the CA subject.
Fixes#1784.
stdio.h was being included both conditionally if MBEDTLS_FS_IO was
defined, and also unconditionally, which made at least one of them
redundant.
This change removes the unconditional inclusion of stdio.h and makes it
conditional on MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C.
