In case truncated HMAC must be used but the Mbed TLS peer hasn't been updated
yet, one can use the compile-time option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT to
temporarily fall back to the old, non-compliant implementation of the truncated
HMAC extension.
Add a DTLS small packet test for each of the following combinations:
- DTLS version: 1.0 or 1.2
- Encrypt then MAC extension enabled
- Truncated HMAC extension enabled
Large packets tests for DTLS are currently not possible due to parameter
constraints in ssl_server2.
This commit ensures that there is a small packet test for at least any
combination of
- SSL/TLS version: SSLv3, TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 or TLS 1.2
- Stream cipher (RC4) or Block cipher (AES)
- Usage of Encrypt then MAC extension [TLS only]
- Usage of truncated HMAC extension [TLS only]
Noticed that the test cases in ssl-opt.sh exercising the truncated HMAC
extension do not depend on MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC being enabled in
config.h. This commit fixes this.
The truncated HMAC extension as described in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6066.html#section-7 specifies that when truncated
HMAC is used, only the HMAC output should be truncated, while the HMAC key
generation stays unmodified. This commit fixes Mbed TLS's behavior of also
truncating the key, potentially leading to compatibility issues with peers
running other stacks than Mbed TLS.
Details:
The keys for the MAC are pieces of the keyblock that's generated from the
master secret in `mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys` through the PRF, their size being
specified as the size of the digest used for the MAC, regardless of whether
truncated HMAC is enabled or not.
/----- MD size ------\ /------- MD size ----\
Keyblock +----------------------+----------------------+------------------+---
now | MAC enc key | MAC dec key | Enc key | ...
(correct) +----------------------+----------------------+------------------+---
In the previous code, when truncated HMAC was enabled, the HMAC keys
were truncated to 10 bytes:
/-10 bytes-\ /-10 bytes-\
Keyblock +-------------+-------------+------------------+---
previously | MAC enc key | MAC dec key | Enc key | ...
(wrong) +-------------+-------------+------------------+---
The reason for this was that a single variable `transform->maclen` was used for
both the keysize and the size of the final MAC, and its value was reduced from
the MD size to 10 bytes in case truncated HMAC was negotiated.
This commit fixes this by introducing a temporary variable `mac_key_len` which
permanently holds the MD size irrespective of the presence of truncated HMAC,
and using this temporary to obtain the MAC key chunks from the keyblock.
Fix missing definition of mbedtls_zeroize when MBEDTLS_FS_IO is
disabled in the configuration.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'upstream-public/pr/1112' into mbedtls-2.1
Previously, MAC validation for an incoming record proceeded as follows:
1) Make a copy of the MAC contained in the record;
2) Compute the expected MAC in place, overwriting the presented one;
3) Compare both.
This resulted in a record buffer overflow if truncated MAC was used, as in this
case the record buffer only reserved 10 bytes for the MAC, but the MAC
computation routine in 2) always wrote a full digest.
For specially crafted records, this could be used to perform a controlled write of
up to 6 bytes past the boundary of the heap buffer holding the record, thereby
corrupting the heap structures and potentially leading to a crash or remote code
execution.
This commit fixes this by making the following change:
1) Compute the expected MAC in a temporary buffer that has the size of the
underlying message digest.
2) Compare to this to the MAC contained in the record, potentially
restricting to the first 10 bytes if truncated HMAC is used.
A similar fix is applied to the encryption routine `ssl_encrypt_buf`.
