The length to the debug message could conceivably leak through the time it
takes to print it, and that length would in turn reveal whether padding was
correct or not.
The basis for the Lucky 13 family of attacks is for an attacker to be able to
distinguish between (long) valid TLS-CBC padding and invalid TLS-CBC padding.
Since our code sets padlen = 0 for invalid padding, the length of the input to
the HMAC function, and the location where we read the MAC, give information
about that.
A local attacker could gain information about that by observing via a
cache attack whether the bytes at the end of the record (at the location of
would-be padding) have been read during MAC verification (computation +
comparison).
Let's make sure they're always read.
The basis for the Lucky 13 family of attacks is for an attacker to be able to
distinguish between (long) valid TLS-CBC padding and invalid TLS-CBC padding.
Since our code sets padlen = 0 for invalid padding, the length of the input to
the HMAC function gives information about that.
Information about this length (modulo the MD/SHA block size) can be deduced
from how much MD/SHA padding (this is distinct from TLS-CBC padding) is used.
If MD/SHA padding is read from a (static) buffer, a local attacker could get
information about how much is used via a cache attack targeting that buffer.
Let's get rid of this buffer. Now the only buffer used is the internal MD/SHA
one, which is always read fully by the process() function.
Remove reference to `MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECJPAKE_ENABLED` as branch
`mbedtls-2.1` doesn't have `ECJPAKE`. This definition was accidently
inserted in a backport.
We don't compile in the assembly code if compiler optimisations are disabled as
the number of registers used in the assembly code doesn't work with the -O0
option. Also anyone select -O0 probably doesn't want to compile in the assembly
code anyway.
This fix adds the ebx register to the clobber list for the i386 inline assembly
for the multiply helper function.
ebx was used but not listed, so when the compiler chose to also use it, ebx was
getting corrupted. I'm surprised this wasn't spotted sooner.
Fixes Github issues #1550.
1. Update the test script to un the ECC tests only if the relevant
configurations are defined in `config.h` file
2. Change the HASH of the ciphersuite from SHA1 based to SHA256
for better example
