Change the representation of an ECDSA signature from the ASN.1 DER
encoding used in TLS and X.509, to the concatenation of r and s
in big-endian order with a fixed size. A fixed size helps memory and
buffer management and this representation is generally easier to use
for anything that doesn't require the ASN.1 representation. This is
the same representation as PKCS#11 (Cryptoki) except that PKCS#11
allows r and s to be truncated (both to the same length), which
complicates the implementation and negates the advantage of a
fixed-size representation.
* Distinguish randomized ECDSA from deterministic ECDSA.
* Deterministic ECDSA needs to be parametrized by a hash.
* Randomized ECDSA only uses the hash for the initial hash step,
but add ECDSA(hash) algorithms anyway so that all the signature
algorithms encode the initial hashing step.
* Add brief documentation for the ECDSA signature mechanisms.
* Also define DSA signature mechanisms while I'm at it. There were
already key types for DSA.
* PSS needs to be parametrized by a hash.
* Don't use `_MGF1` in the names of macros for OAEP and PSS. No one
ever uses anything else.
* Add brief documentation for the RSA signature mechanisms.
Make psa_export_key() always set a valid data_length when exporting,
even when there are errors. This makes the API easier to use for buggy
programs (like our test code).
Our test code previously used exported_length uninitialized when
checking to see that the buffer returned was all zero in import_export()
in the case where an error was returned from psa_export_key().
Initialize exported_length to an invalid length, and check that it gets
set properly by psa_export_key(), to avoid this using export_length
uninitialized. Note that the mem_is_zero() check is still valid when
psa_export_key() returns an error, e.g. where exported_length is 0, as
we want to check that nothing was written to the buffer on error.
Out test code also previous passed NULL for the data_length parameter of
psa_export_key() when it expected a failure (in key_policy_fail()).
However, data_length is not allowed to be NULL, especially now that we
write to data_length from psa_export_key() even when there are errors.
Update the test code to not pass in a NULL data_length.
psa_hash_abort, psa_mac_abort and psa_cipher_abort now return
PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE if operation->alg is obviously not valid, which
can only happen due to a programming error in the caller or in the
library. We can't detect all cases of calling abort on uninitialized
memory but this is dirt cheap and better than nothing.
It isn't used to define other macros and it doesn't seem that useful
for users. Remove it, we can reintroduce it if needed.
Define a similar function key_type_is_raw_bytes in the implementation
with a clear semantics: it's a key that's represented as a struct
raw_data.
Also add what was missing in the test suite to support block ciphers
with a block size that isn't 16.
Fix some buggy test data that passed only due to problems with DES
support in the product.
In psa_hash_start, psa_mac_start and psa_cipher_setup, return
PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT rather than PSA_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED when
the algorithm parameter is not the right category.
When psa_mac_start(), psa_encrypt_setup() or psa_cipher_setup()
failed, depending on when the failure happened, it was possible that
psa_mac_abort() or psa_cipher_abort() would crash because it would try
to call a free() function uninitialized data in the operation
structure. Refactor the functions so that they initialize the
operation structure before doing anything else.
Add non-regression tests and a few more positive and negative unit
tests for psa_mac_start() and psa_cipher_setup() (the latter via
psa_encrypt_setip()).
In psa_export_key, ensure that each byte of the output buffer either
contains its original value, is zero, or is part of the actual output.
Specifically, don't risk having partial output on error, and don't
leave extra data at the end of the buffer when exporting an asymmetric
key.
Test that exporting to a previously zeroed buffer leaves the buffer
zeroed outside the actual output if any.
Exporting an asymmetric key only worked if the target buffer had
exactly the right size, because psa_export_key uses
mbedtls_pk_write_key_der or mbedtls_pk_write_pubkey_der and these
functions write to the end of the buffer, which psa_export_key did not
correct for. Fix this by moving the data to the beginning of the
buffer if necessary.
Add non-regression tests.
psa_import_key must check that the imported key data matches the
expected key type. Implement the missing check for EC keys that the
curve is the expected one.
Avoid lines longer than 80 columns.
Remove some redundant parentheses, e.g. change
if( ( a == b ) && ( c == d ) )
to
if( a == b && c == d )
which makes lines less long and makes the remaining parentheses more
relevant.
Add missing parentheses around return statements.
There should be no semantic change in this commit.
Store the temporary key in the long-key case (where the key is first
hashed) directly into ipad. This reduces the stack usage a little, at
a slight cost in complexity.
In psa_mac_start, the hash of the key and ipad contain material that
can be used to make HMAC calculations with the key, therefore they
must be wiped.
In psa_mac_finish_internal, tmp contains an intermediate value which
could reveal the HMAC. This is definitely sensitive in the verify case,
and marginally sensitive in the finish case (it isn't if the hash
function is ideal, but it could make things worse if the hash function
is partially broken).
Split algorithm-specific code out of psa_mac_start. This makes the
function easier to read.
The behavior is mostly unchanged. In a few cases, errors before
setting a key trigger a context wipe where they didn't. This is a
marginal performance loss but only cases that are an error in caller
code.
