- "fail" branches in selftests
- "should never happen" errors in SSL
- cipher_xxx() failures in SSL
- some things that fail only if malloc() fails
- some things that fail only if fread/fwrite()/ftell() fails
(after fopen() succeeded)
- some things that fail only if a parameter is invalid, but the parameter was
actually validated earlier
- generated code in library/error.c
There is only one length byte but for some reason we skipped two, resulting in
reading one byte past the end of the extension. Fortunately, even if that
extension is at the very end of the ClientHello, it can't be at the end of the
buffer since the ClientHello length is at most SSL_MAX_CONTENT_LEN and the
buffer has some more room after that for MAC and so on. So there is no
buffer overread.
Possible consequences are:
- nothing, if the next byte is 0x00, which is a comment first byte for other
extensions, which is why the bug remained unnoticed
- using a point format that was not offered by the peer if next byte is 0x01.
In that case the peer will reject our ServerKeyExchange message and the
handshake will fail.
- thinking that we don't have a common point format even if we do, which will
cause us to immediately abort the handshake.
None of these are a security issue.
The same bug was fixed client-side in fd35af15
May happen with a faulty configuration (eg no allowed curve but trying to use
ECDHE key exchange), but not trigger able remotely.
(Found with Clang's scan-build.)
While at it, fix the following:
- on server with RSA_PSK, we don't want to set flags (client auth happens via
the PSK, no cert is expected).
- use safer tests (eg == OPTIONAL vs != REQUIRED)
A simple series of sed invocations.
This is the first step, purely internal changes. The conf substructure is not
ready to be shared between contexts yet.

Fix potential timing difference with RSA PMS
Update Changelog for recent merge
Added more constant-time code and removed biases in the prime number generation routines.
Conflicts:
library/bignum.c
library/ssl_srv.c
Note from future self: actually md_init_ctx will be re-introduced with the
same signature later, and a new function with the additional argument will be
added.
- more freedom for us to change it in the future
- enforces hygiene
- performance impact of making accessors no longer inline should really be
negligible
