To prevent dropping the same message over and over again, the UDP proxy
test application programs/test/udp_proxy _logically_ maintains a mapping
from records to the number of times the record has already been dropped,
and stops dropping once a configurable threshold (currently 2) is passed.
However, the actual implementation deviates from this logical view
in two crucial respects:
- To keep the implementation simple and independent of
implementations of suitable map interfaces, it only counts how
many times a record of a given _size_ has been dropped, and
stops dropping further records of that size once the configurable
threshold is passed. Of course, this is not fail-proof, but a
good enough approximation for the proxy, and it allows to use
an inefficient but simple array for the required map.
- The implementation mixes datagram lengths and record lengths:
When deciding whether it is allowed to drop a datagram, it
uses the total datagram size as a lookup index into the map
counting the number of times a package has been dropped. However,
when updating this map, the UDP proxy traverses the datagram
record by record, and updates the mapping at the level of record
lengths.
Apart from this inconsistency, the current implementation suffers
from a lack of bounds checking for the parsed length of incoming
DTLS records that can lead to a buffer overflow when facing
malformed records.
This commit removes the inconsistency in datagram vs. record length
and resolves the buffer overflow issue by not attempting any dissection
of datagrams into records, and instead only counting how often _datagrams_
of a particular size have been dropped.
There is only one practical situation where this makes a difference:
If datagram packing is used by default but disabled on retransmission
(which OpenSSL has been seen to do), it can happen that we drop a
datagram in its initial transmission, then also drop some of its records
when they retransmitted one-by-one afterwards, yet still keeping the
drop-counter at 1 instead of 2. However, even in this situation, we'll
correctly count the number of droppings from that point on and eventually
stop dropping, because the peer will not fall back to using packing
and hence use stable record lengths.
The example programs programs/x509/cert_req and programs/x509/cert_write
(demonstrating the use of X.509 CSR and CRT writing functionality)
previously didn't support MD2 signatures.
For testing purposes, this commit adds support for MD2 to cert_req,
and support for MD2 and MD4 to cert_write.
This allows to test PSK-based ciphersuites via ssl_server2 in builds
which have MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_PARSE_C enabled but both MBEDTLS_FS_IO and
MBEDTLS_CERTS_C disabled.

MBEDTLS_CERTS_C disabled.
A similar change is applied to the `crt_file` and `key_file` arguments.
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.
Remove the ssl_cert_test sample application, as it uses
hardcoded certificates that moved, and is redundant with the x509
tests and applications. Fixes#1905.

The previous prototype gave warnings are the strings produced by #cond and
__FILE__ are const, so we shouldn't implicitly cast them to non-const.
While at it modifying most example programs:
- include the header that has the function declaration, so that the definition
can be checked to match by the compiler
- fix whitespace
- make it work even if PLATFORM_C is not defined:
- CHECK_PARAMS is not documented as depending on PLATFORM_C and there is
no reason why it should
- so, remove the corresponding #if defined in each program...
- and add missing #defines for mbedtls_exit when needed
The result has been tested (make all test with -Werror) with the following
configurations:
- full with CHECK_PARAMS with PLATFORM_C
- full with CHECK_PARAMS without PLATFORM_C
- full without CHECK_PARAMS without PLATFORM_C
- full without CHECK_PARAMS with PLATFORM_C
Additionally, it has been manually tested that adding
mbedtls_aes_init( NULL );
near the normal call to mbedtls_aes_init() in programs/aes/aescrypt2.c has the
expected effect when running the program.
The sample programs require an additional handler function of
mbedtls_param_failed() to handle any failed parameter validation checks enabled
by the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS config.h option.
Some sample programs access structure fields directly. Making these work is
desirable in the long term, but these are not essential for the core
functionality in non-legacy mode.
This commit adds a command line option `md` to the example application
`programs/x509/cert_req` allowing to specify the hash algorithm to use
when signing the CSR.

ssl_server2: add buffer overhead for a termination character
Add missing large and small packet tests for ssl_server2
Added buffer_size and response_size options for ssl-server2. Added appropriate tests.
Solving a conflict in tests/ssl-opt.sh: two set of tests were added at the
same place (just after large packets):
- restartable ECC tests (in this branch)
- server-side large packets (in development)
Resolution was to move the ECC tests after the newly added server large packet
ones.
This commit replaces multiple `memset()` calls in the example
programs aes/aescrypt2.c and aes/crypt_and_hash.c by calls to
the reliable zeroization function `mbedtls_zeroize()`.
While not a security issue because the code is in the example
programs, it's bad practice and should be fixed.
When using a primality testing function the tolerable error rate depends
on the scheme in question, the required security strength and wether it
is used for key generation or parameter validation. To support all use
cases we need more flexibility than what the old API provides.
If `MBEDTLS_MEMORY_BUFFER_ALLOC_C` is configured and Mbed TLS'
custom buffer allocator is used for calloc() and free(), the
read buffer used by the server example application is allocated
from the buffer allocator, but freed after the buffer allocator
has been destroyed. If memory backtracing is enabled, this leaves
a memory leak in the backtracing structure allocated for the buffer,
as found by valgrind.
Fixes#2069.
* The variables `csr` and `issuer_crt` are initialized but not freed.
* The variable `entropy` is unconditionally freed in the cleanup section
but there's a conditional jump to that section before its initialization.
This cmmot Moves it to the other initializations happening before the
first conditional jump to the cleanup section.
Fixes#1422.

Previously, the UDP proxy could only remember one delayed message
for future transmission; if two messages were delayed in succession,
without another one being normally forwarded in between,
the message that got delayed first would be dropped.
This commit enhances the UDP proxy to allow to delay an arbitrary
(compile-time fixed) number of messages in succession.
This setting belongs to the individual connection, not to a configuration
shared by many connections. (If a default value is desired, that can be handled
by the application code that calls mbedtls_ssl_set_mtu().)
There are at least two ways in which this matters:
- per-connection settings can be adjusted if MTU estimates become available
during the lifetime of the connection
- it is at least conceivable that a server might recognize restricted clients
based on range of IPs and immediately set a lower MTU for them. This is much
easier to do with a per-connection setting than by maintaining multiple
near-duplicated ssl_config objects that differ only by the MTU setting.
This commit adds a new command line option `dgram_packing`
to the example server application programs/ssl/ssl_client2

renegotiating.
sprintf( (char *) buf, "%s\r\n", base );
Above code generates Wformat-overflow warning since both buf and base
are of same size. buf should be sizeof( base ) + characters added in
the format. In this case format 2 bytes for "\r\n".
