Prior to this commit, the security parameter struct `ssl_transform`
contained a `ciphersuite_info` field pointing to the information
structure for the negotiated ciphersuite. However, the only
information extracted from that structure that was used in the core
encryption and decryption functions `ssl_encrypt_buf`/`ssl_decrypt_buf`
was the authentication tag length in case of an AEAD cipher.
The present commit removes the `ciphersuite_info` field from the
`ssl_transform` structure and adds an explicit `taglen` field
for AEAD authentication tag length.
This is in accordance with the principle that the `ssl_transform`
structure should contain the raw parameters needed for the record
encryption and decryption functions to work, but not the higher-level
information that gave rise to them. For example, the `ssl_transform`
structure implicitly contains the encryption/decryption keys within
their cipher contexts, but it doesn't contain the SSL master or
premaster secrets. Likewise, it contains an explicit `maclen`, while
the status of the 'Truncated HMAC' extension -- which determines the
value of `maclen` when the `ssl_transform` structure is created in
`ssl_derive_keys` -- is not contained in `ssl_transform`.
The `ciphersuite_info` pointer was used in other places outside
the encryption/decryption functions during the handshake, and for
these functions to work, this commit adds a `ciphersuite_info` pointer
field to the handshake-local `ssl_handshake_params` structure.
The SSL module accesses ECDH context members directly. This can't work
with the new context, where we can't make any assumption about the
implementation of the context.
This commit makes use of the new functions to avoid accessing ECDH
members directly. The only members that are still accessed directly are
the group ID and the point format and they are independent from the
implementation.
Previously, mbedtls_ssl_read_record() always updated the handshake
checksum in case a handshake record was received. While desirable
most of the time, for the CertificateVerify message the checksum
update must only happen after the message has been fully processed,
because the validation requires the handshake digest up to but
excluding the CertificateVerify itself. As a remedy, the bulk
of mbedtls_ssl_read_record() was previously duplicated within
ssl_parse_certificate_verify(), hardening maintenance in case
mbedtls_ssl_read_record() is subject to changes.
This commit adds a boolean parameter to mbedtls_ssl_read_record()
indicating whether the checksum should be updated in case of a
handshake message or not. This allows using it also for
ssl_parse_certificate_verify(), manually updating the checksum
after the message has been processed.
This commit is another step towards supporting the packing of
multiple records within a single datagram.
Previously, the incremental outgoing record sequence number was
statically stored within the record buffer, at its final place
within the record header. This slightly increased efficiency
as it was not necessary to copy the sequence number when writing
outgoing records.
When allowing multiple records within a single datagram, it is
necessary to allow the position of the current record within the
datagram buffer to be flexible; in particular, there is no static
address for the record sequence number field within the record header.
This commit introduces an additional field `cur_out_ctr` within
the main SSL context structure `mbedtls_ssl_context` to keep track
of the outgoing record sequence number independent of the buffer used
for the current record / datagram. Whenever a new record is written,
this sequence number is copied to the the address `out_ctr` of the
sequence number header field within the current outgoing record.
This will allow fragmentation to always happen in the same place, always from
a buffer distinct from ssl->out_msg, and with the same way of resuming after
returning WANT_WRITE
For the situation where the mbedTLS device has limited RAM, but the
other end of the connection doesn't support the max_fragment_length
extension. To be spec-compliant, mbedTLS has to keep a 16384 byte
incoming buffer. However the outgoing buffer can be made smaller without
breaking spec compliance, and we save some RAM.
See comments in include/mbedtls/config.h for some more details.
(The lower limit of outgoing buffer size is the buffer size used during
handshake/cert negotiation. As the handshake is half-duplex it might
even be possible to store this data in the "incoming" buffer during the
handshake, which would save even more RAM - but it would also be a lot
hackier and error-prone. I didn't really explore this possibility, but
thought I'd mention it here in case someone sees this later on a mission
to jam mbedTLS into an even tinier RAM footprint.)

In ssl_parse_encrypted_pms, some operational failures from
ssl_decrypt_encrypted_pms lead to diff being set to a value that
depended on some uninitialized unsigned char and size_t values. This didn't
affect the behavior of the program (assuming an implementation with no
trap values for size_t) because all that matters is whether diff is 0,
but Valgrind rightfully complained about the use of uninitialized
memory. Behave nicely and initialize the offending memory.
Rename to mbedtls_ssl_get_async_operation_data and
mbedtls_ssl_set_async_operation_data so that they're about
"async operation data" and not about some not-obvious "data".
When a handshake step starts an asynchronous operation, the
application needs to know which SSL connection the operation is for,
so that when the operation completes, the application can wake that
connection up. Therefore the async start callbacks need to take the
SSL context as an argument. It isn't enough to let them set a cookie
in the SSL connection, the application needs to be able to find the
right SSL connection later.
Also pass the SSL context to the other callbacks for consistency. Add
a new field to the handshake that the application can use to store a
per-connection context. This new field replaces the former
context (operation_ctx) that was created by the start function and
passed to the resume function.
Add a boolean flag to the handshake structure to track whether an
asynchronous operation is in progress. This is more robust than
relying on the application to set a non-null application context.
In the refactoring of ssl_parse_encrypted_pms, I advertently broke the
case when decryption signalled an error, with the variable ret getting
overwritten before calculating diff. Move the calculation of diff
immediately after getting the return code to make the connection more
obvious. Also move the calculation of mask immediately after the
calculation of diff, which doesn't change the behavior, because I find
the code clearer that way.

which I merged with my comment changes made as part of refactoring
the function.
* ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange "Compute the hash to be signed" if
`md_alg != MBEDTLS_MD_NONE`: conflict between
ebd652fe2d
"ssl_write_server_key_exchange: calculate hashlen explicitly" and
46f5a3e9b4 "Check return codes from
MD in ssl code". I took the code from commit
ca1d742904 made on top of development
which makes mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_ssl_tls return the
hash length.
* programs/ssl/ssl_server2.c: multiple conflicts between the introduction
of MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS and new auxiliary functions and
definitions for async support, and the introduction of idle().
* definitions before main: concurrent additions, kept both.
* main, just after `handshake:`: in the loop around
mbedtls_ssl_handshake(), merge the addition of support for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS and SSL_ASYNC_INJECT_ERROR_CANCEL
with the addition of the idle() call.
* main, if `opt.transport == MBEDTLS_SSL_TRANSPORT_STREAM`: take the
code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS.
* main, loop around mbedtls_ssl_read() in the datagram case:
take the code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS; revert to a do...while loop.
* main, loop around mbedtls_ssl_write() in the datagram case:
take the code from development and add a check for
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ASYNC_IN_PROGRESS; revert to a do...while loop.
In mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_tls1_2, add an output parameter for
the hash length. The code that calls this function can currently do
without it, but it will need the hash length in the future, when
adding support for a third-party callback to calculate the signature
of the hash.
Reorganize ssl_parse_encrypted_pms so that it first prepares the
ciphertext to decrypt, then decrypts it, then returns either the
decrypted premaster secret or random data in an appropriate manner.
This is in preparation for allowing the private key operation to be
offloaded to an external cryptographic module which can operate
asynchronously. The refactored code no longer calculates state before
the decryption that needs to be saved until after the decryption,
which allows the decryption to be started and later resumed.
Use the public key to extract metadata rather than the public key.
Don't abort early if there is no private key.
This is in preparation for allowing the private key operation to be
offloaded to an external cryptographic module.
Implement SSL asynchronous private operation for the case of a
signature operation in a server.
This is a first implementation. It is functional, but the code is not
clean, with heavy reliance on goto.
The pk layer can infer the hash length from the hash type. Calculate
it explicitly here anyway because it's needed for debugging purposes,
and it's needed for the upcoming feature allowing the signature
operation to be offloaded to an external cryptographic processor, as
the offloading code will need to know what length hash to copy.
