So far, there were the following CRT verification functions:
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()` -- no profile, no restartable ECC
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` -- profile, no restartable ECC
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` -- profile, restartable ECC
all publicly declared and offering increasing functionality.
On the implementation-side,
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()` resolves to
a call to `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` setting
the profile to `NULL`, and
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()`
resolves to a call to ``mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()`
setting the ECC restart context to NULL.
This commit adds two more functions to this zoo:
- `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()`
- `x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()`
Here, `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()` is similar to
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_profile()` but uses a CA callback
instead of a static CA list, and no restart context.
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` is similar to
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` but allows to either use
a static list of trusted CAs _or_ a trusted CA callback.
On the implementation-side,
- the body of `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` is moved to
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()`, and the new version of
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_restartable()` just resolves to
`x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` with the trusted CA callback
set to NULL.
- The new function `mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()`
forward to `x509_crt_verify_restartable_cb()` with the restart
context set to `NULL`.
There's no change to the implementation yet, and in particular,
`mbedtls_x509_crt_verify_with_cb()` isn't yet usable.

This commit also changes the functions x509write_crt_set_ns_cert_type
and crt_set_key_usage to call the new function as the use named
bitstrings instead of the regular bitstrings.
If we don't need to store the peer's CRT chain permanently, we may
free it immediately after verifying it. Moreover, since we parse the
CRT chain in-place from the input buffer in this case, pointers from
the CRT structure remain valid after freeing the structure, and we
use that to extract the digest and pubkey from the CRT after freeing
the structure.
It is used in `mbedtls_ssl_session_free()` under
`MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_PARSE_C`, but defined only if
`MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE__WITH_CERT__ENABLED`.
Issue #2422 tracks the use of
`MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE__WITH_CERT_ENABLED` instead of
`MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_PARSE_C` for code and fields
related to CRT-based ciphersuites.
The server expects a CertificateVerify message only if it has
previously received a Certificate from the client.
So far, this was detected by looking at the `peer_cert` field
in the current session. Preparing to remove the latter, this
commit changes this to instead determine the presence of a peer
certificate by checking the new `peer_cert_digest` pointer.
We must dispatch between the peer's public key stored as part of
the peer's CRT in the current session structure (situation until
now, and future behaviour if MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE is
enabled), and the sole public key stored in the handshake structure
(new, if MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE is disabled).

This commit modifies `mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()` to store a
copy of the peer's public key after parsing and verifying the peer's
CRT chain.
So far, this leads to heavy memory duplication: We have the CRT chain
in the I/O buffer, then parse (and, thereby, copy) it to a
`mbedtls_x509_crt` structure, and then make another copy of the
peer's public key, plus the overhead from the MPI and ECP structures.
This inefficiency will soon go away to a significant extend, because:
- Another PR adds functionality to parse CRTs without taking
ownership of the input buffers. Applying this here will allow
parsing and verifying the peer's chain without making an additional
raw copy. The overhead reduces to the size of `mbedtls_x509_crt`,
the public key, and the DN structures referenced in the CRT.
- Once copyless parsing is in place and the removal of the peer CRT
is fully implemented, we can extract the public key bounds from
the parsed certificate and then free the entire chain before
parsing the public key again. This means that we never store
the parsed public key twice at the same time.
When removing the (session-local) copy of the peer's CRT chain, we must
keep a handshake-local copy of the peer's public key, as (naturally) every
key exchange will make use of that public key at some point to verify that
the peer actually owns the corresponding private key (e.g., verify signatures
from ServerKeyExchange or CertificateVerify, or encrypt a PMS in a RSA-based
exchange, or extract static (EC)DH parameters).
This commit adds a PK context field `peer_pubkey` to the handshake parameter
structure `mbedtls_handshake_params_init()` and adapts the init and free
functions accordingly. It does not yet make actual use of the new field.
This commit adds an ASN.1 buffer field `pk_raw` to `mbedtls_x509_crt`
which stores the bounds of the raw public key data within an X.509 CRT.
This will be useful in subsequent commits to extract the peer's public
key from its certificate chain.
This commit changes the format of session tickets to include
the digest of the peer's CRT if MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE
is disabled.
This commit does not yet remove the peer CRT itself.
`mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate()` parses the peer's certificate chain
directly into the `peer_cert` field of the `mbedtls_ssl_session`
structure being established. To allow to optionally remove this field
from the session structure, this commit changes this to parse the peer's
chain into a local variable instead first, which can then either be freed
after CRT verification - in case the chain should not be stored - or
mapped to the `peer_cert` if it should be kept. For now, only the latter
is implemented.
mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate() will fail if a ciphersuite requires
a certificate, but none is provided. While it is sensible to double-
check this, failure should be reported as an internal error and not
as an unexpected message.
A subsequent commit will need this function in the session ticket
and session cache implementations. As the latter are server-side,
this commit also removes the MBEDTLS_SSL_CLI_C guard.
For now, the function is declared in ssl_internal.h and hence not
part of the public API.
This commit modifies the helper `ssl_parse_certificate_chain()` to
accep any target X.509 CRT chain instead of hardcoding it to
`session_negotiate->peer_cert`. This increases modularity and paves
the way towards removing `mbedtls_ssl_session::peer_cert`.
