The existing test `x509parse_crt()` for X.509 CRT parsing
so far used the generic parsing API `mbedtls_x509_crt_parse()`
capable of parsing both PEM encoded and DER encoded certficates,
but was actually only used with DER encoded input data. Moreover,
as the purpose of the test is the testing of the core DER X.509 parsing
functionality, not the PEM vs. DER dispatch (which is now already tested
in the various `x509_crt_info()` tests), the call can be replaced with a
direct call to `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der()`.
This commit does that, and further adds to the test an analogous
call to the new API `mbedtls_x509_parse_crt_der_nocopy()` to test
copyless parsing of X.509 certificates.
Some functions within the X.509 module return an ASN.1 low level
error code where instead this error code should be wrapped by a
high-level X.509 error code as in the bulk of the module.
Specifically, the following functions are affected:
- mbedtls_x509_get_ext()
- x509_get_version()
- x509_get_uid()
This commit modifies these functions to always return an
X.509 high level error code.
Care has to be taken when adapting `mbetls_x509_get_ext()`:
Currently, the callers `mbedtls_x509_crt_ext()` treat the
return code `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_UNEXPECTED_TAG` specially to
gracefully detect and continue if the extension structure is not
present. Wrapping the ASN.1 error with
`MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_INVALID_EXTENSIONS` and adapting the check
accordingly would mean that an unexpected tag somewhere
down the extension parsing would be ignored by the caller.
The way out of this is the following: Luckily, the extension
structure is always the last field in the surrounding structure,
so if there is some data remaining, it must be an Extension
structure, so we don't need to deal with a tag mismatch gracefully
in the first place.
We may therefore wrap the return code from the initial call to
`mbedtls_asn1_get_tag()` in `mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` by
`MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_INVALID_EXTENSIONS` and simply remove
the special treatment of `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_UNEXPECTED_TAG`
in the callers `x509_crl_get_ext()` and `x509_crt_get_ext()`.
This renders `mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` unsuitable if it ever
happened that an Extension structure is optional and does not
occur at the end of its surrounding structure, but for CRTs
and CRLs, it's fine.
The following tests need to be adapted:
- "TBSCertificate v3, issuerID wrong tag"
The issuerID is optional, so if we look for its presence
but find a different tag, we silently continue and try
parsing the subjectID, and then the extensions. The tag '00'
used in this test doesn't match either of these, and the
previous code would hence return LENGTH_MISMATCH after
unsucessfully trying issuerID, subjectID and Extensions.
With the new code, any data remaining after issuerID and
subjectID _must_ be Extension data, so we fail with
UNEXPECTED_TAG when trying to parse the Extension data.
- "TBSCertificate v3, UIDs, invalid length"
The test hardcodes the expectation of
MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_INVALID_LENGTH, which needs to be
wrapped in MBEDTLS_ERR_X509_INVALID_FORMAT now.
Fixes#2431.
When parsing a substructure of an ASN.1 structure, no field within
the substructure must exceed the bounds of the substructure.
Concretely, the `end` pointer passed to the ASN.1 parsing routines
must be updated to point to the end of the substructure while parsing
the latter.
This was previously not the case for the routines
- x509_get_attr_type_and_value(),
- mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext(),
- mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext().
These functions kept using the end of the parent structure as the
`end` pointer and would hence allow substructure fields to cross
the substructure boundary. This could lead to successful parsing
of ill-formed X.509 CRTs.
This commit fixes this.
Care has to be taken when adapting `mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext()`
and `mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext()`, as the underlying function
`mbedtls_x509_get_ext()` returns `0` if no extensions are present
but doesn't set the variable which holds the bounds of the Extensions
structure in case the latter is present. This commit addresses
this by returning early from `mbedtls_x509_get_crt_ext()` and
`mbedtls_x509_get_crl_ext()` if parsing has reached the end of
the input buffer.
The following X.509 parsing tests need to be adapted:
- "TBSCertificate, issuer two inner set datas"
This test exercises the X.509 CRT parser with a Subject name
which has two empty `AttributeTypeAndValue` structures.
This is supposed to fail with `MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_OUT_OF_DATA`
because the parser should attempt to parse the first structure
and fail because of a lack of data. Previously, it failed to
obey the (0-length) bounds of the first AttributeTypeAndValue
structure and would try to interpret the beginning of the second
AttributeTypeAndValue structure as the first field of the first
AttributeTypeAndValue structure, returning an UNEXPECTED_TAG error.
- "TBSCertificate, issuer, no full following string"
This test exercises the parser's behaviour on an AttributeTypeAndValue
structure which contains more data than expected; it should therefore
fail with MBEDTLS_ERR_ASN1_LENGTH_MISMATCH. Because of the missing bounds
check, it previously failed with UNEXPECTED_TAG because it interpreted
the remaining byte in the first AttributeTypeAndValue structure as the
first byte in the second AttributeTypeAndValue structure.
- "SubjectAltName repeated"
This test should exercise two SubjectAltNames extensions in succession,
but a wrong length values makes the second SubjectAltNames extension appear
outside of the Extensions structure. With the new bounds in place, this
therefore fails with a LENGTH_MISMATCH error. This commit adapts the test
data to put the 2nd SubjectAltNames extension inside the Extensions
structure, too.
The X.509 parsing test suite test_suite_x509parse contains a test
exercising X.509 verification for a valid MD4/MD5 certificate in a
profile which doesn't allow MD4/MD5. This commit adds an analogous
test for MD2.
This commit introduces a new SSL error code
`MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_VERSION_MISMATCH`
which can be used to indicate operation failure due to a
mismatch of version or configuration.
It is put to use in the implementation of `mbedtls_ssl_session_load()`
to signal the attempt to de-serialize a session which has been serialized
in a build of Mbed TLS using a different version or configuration.
This commit improves the test exercising the behaviour of
session deserialization when facing an unexpected version
or config, by testing ver/cfg corruption at any bit in the
ver/cfg header of the serialized data; previously, it had
only tested the first bit of each byte.
We have explicit recommendations to use US spelling for technical writing, so
let's apply this to code as well for uniformity. (My fingers tend to prefer UK
spelling, so this needs to be fixed in many places.)
sed -i 's/\([Ss]eriali\)s/\1z/g' **/*.[ch] **/*.function **/*.data ChangeLog
This test works regardless of the serialisation format and embedded pointers
in it, contrary to the load-save test, though it requires more maintenance of
the test code (sync the member list with the struct definition).
This uncovered a bug that led to a double-free (in practice, in general could
be free() on any invalid value): initially the session structure is loaded
with `memcpy()` which copies the previous values of pointers peer_cert and
ticket to heap-allocated buffers (or any other value if the input is
attacker-controlled). Now if we exit before we got a chance to replace those
invalid values with valid ones (for example because the input buffer is too
small, or because the second malloc() failed), then the next call to
session_free() is going to call free() on invalid pointers.
This bug is fixed in this commit by always setting the pointers to NULL right
after they've been read from the serialised state, so that the invalid values
can never be used.
(An alternative would be to NULL-ify them when writing, which was rejected
mostly because we need to do it when reading anyway (as the consequences of
free(invalid) are too severe to take any risk), so doing it when writing as
well is redundant and a waste of code size.)
Also, while thinking about what happens in case of errors, it became apparent
to me that it was bad practice to leave the session structure in an
half-initialised state and rely on the caller to call session_free(), so this
commit also ensures we always clear the structure when loading failed.
This test appeared to be passing for the wrong reason, it's not actually not
appropriate for the current implementation. The serialised data contains
values of pointers to heap-allocated buffers. There is no reason these should
be identical after a load-save pair. They just happened to be identical when I
first ran the test due to the place of session_free() in the test code and the
fact that the libc's malloc() reused the same buffers. The test no longer
passes if other malloc() implementations are used (for example, when compiling
with asan which avoids re-using the buffer, probably for better error
detection).
So, disable this test for now (we can re-enable it when we changed how
sessions are serialised, which will be done in a future PR, hence the name of
the dummy macro in depends_on). In the next commit we're going to add a test
that save-load is the identity instead - which will be more work in testing as
it will require checking each field manually, but at least is reliable.
This initial test ensures that a load-save function is the identity. It is so
far incomplete in that it only tests sessions without tickets or certificate.
This will be improved in the next commits.
- Replace 'RSA with MD2' OID '2a864886f70d010102' by
'RSA with SHA-256' OID '2a864886f70d01010b':
Only the last byte determines the hash, and
`MBEDTLS_OID_PKCS1_MD2 == MBEDTLS_OID_PKCS1 "\x02"`
`MBEDTLS_OID_PKCS1_SHA256 == MBEDTLS_OID_PKCS1 "\x0b"`

- Replace MD2 dependency by SHA256 dependency.
- Adapt expected CRT info output.
Part of the record encryption/decryption tests is to gradually
increase the space available at the front and/or at the back of
a record and observe when encryption starts to succeed. If exactly
one of the two parameters is varied at a time, the expectation is
that encryption will continue to succeed once it has started
succeeding (that's not true if both pre- and post-space are varied
at the same time).
Moreover, previously the test would take turns when choosing which
transform should be used for encryption, and which for decryption.
With the introduction of the CID feaature, this switching of transforms
doesn't align with the expectation of eventual success of the encryption,
since the overhead of encryption might be different for the parties,
because both parties may use different CIDs for their outgoing records.
This commit modifies the tests to not take turns between transforms,
but to always use the same transforms for encryption and decryption
during a single round of the test.
This commit adds tests to check the behavior of the record encryption
routine `ssl_encrypt_buf` when the buffer surrounding the plaintext is
too small to hold the expansion in the beginning and end (due to IV's,
padding, and MAC).
Each test starts successively increases the space available at the
beginning, end, or both, of the record buffer, and checks that the
record encryption either fails with a BUFFER_TOO_SMALL error, or
that it succeeds. Moreover, if it succeeds, it is checked that
decryption succeeds, too, and results in the original record.
This commit adds tests exercising mutually inverse pairs of
record encryption and decryption transformations for the various
transformation types allowed in TLS: Stream, CBC, and AEAD.

It was failing to set the key in the ENCRYPT direction before encrypting.
This just happened to work for GCM and CCM.
After re-encrypting, compare the length to the expected ciphertext
length not the plaintext length. Again this just happens to work for
GCM and CCM since they do not perform any kind of padding.

`test_hkdf` in the hkdf test suites consumed stack of ~6KB with
6 buffers of ~1KB each. This causes stack overflow on some platforms
with smaller stack. The buffer sizes were reduced. By testing, the sizes
can be reduced even further, as the largest seen size is 82 bytes(for okm).
Document when a context must be initialized or not, when it must be
set up or not, and whether it needs a private key or a public key will
do.
The implementation is sometimes more liberal than the documentation,
accepting a non-set-up context as a context that can't perform the
requested information. This preserves backward compatibility.
