mbed TLS ChangeLog (Sorted per branch, date)
= mbed TLS 2.26.0 branch released 2021-03-08
API changes
* Renamed the PSA Crypto API output buffer size macros to bring them in line
with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
* The API glue function mbedtls_ecc_group_of_psa() now takes the curve size
in bits rather than bytes, with an additional flag to indicate if the
size may have been rounded up to a whole number of bytes.
* Renamed the PSA Crypto API AEAD tag length macros to bring them in line
with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
Default behavior changes
* In mbedtls_rsa_context objects, the ver field was formerly documented
as always 0. It is now reserved for internal purposes and may take
different values.
New deprecations
* PSA_KEY_EXPORT_MAX_SIZE, PSA_HASH_SIZE, PSA_MAC_FINAL_SIZE,
PSA_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE, PSA_MAX_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE and
PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS_MAX_PSK_LEN have been renamed, and the old names
deprecated.
* PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_DEFAULT_TAG_LENGTH and PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_TAG_LENGTH
have been renamed, and the old names deprecated.
Features
* The PSA crypto subsystem can now use HMAC_DRBG instead of CTR_DRBG.
CTR_DRBG is used by default if it is available, but you can override
this choice by setting MBEDTLS_PSA_HMAC_DRBG_MD_TYPE at compile time.
Fix #3354.
* Automatic fallback to a software implementation of ECP when
MBEDTLS_ECP_xxx_ALT accelerator hooks are in use can now be turned off
through setting the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_FALLBACK.
* The PSA crypto subsystem can now be configured to use less static RAM by
tweaking the setting for the maximum amount of keys simultaneously in RAM.
MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT sets the maximum number of volatile keys that
can exist simultaneously. It has a sensible default if not overridden.
* Partial implementation of the PSA crypto driver interface: Mbed TLS can
now use an external random generator instead of the library's own
entropy collection and DRBG code. Enable MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG
and see the documentation of mbedtls_psa_external_get_random() for details.
* Applications using both mbedtls_xxx and psa_xxx functions (for example,
applications using TLS and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO) can now use the PSA
random generator with mbedtls_xxx functions. See the documentation of
mbedtls_psa_get_random() for details.
* In the PSA API, the policy for a MAC or AEAD algorithm can specify a
minimum MAC or tag length thanks to the new wildcards
PSA_ALG_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_MAC and
PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_TAG.
Security
* Fix a security reduction in CTR_DRBG when the initial seeding obtained a
nonce from entropy. Applications were affected if they called
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len(), if they called
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() with a size that was 3/2 times the key
length, or when the entropy module uses SHA-256 and CTR_DRBG uses AES-256.
In such cases, a random nonce was necessary to achieve the advertised
security strength, but the code incorrectly used a constant instead of
entropy from the nonce.
Found by John Stroebel in #3819 and fixed in #3973.
* Fix a buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when calculating
|A| - |B| where |B| is larger than |A| and has more limbs (so the
function should return MBEDTLS_ERR_MPI_NEGATIVE_VALUE). Only
applications calling mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() directly are affected:
all calls inside the library were safe since this function is
only called with |A| >= |B|. Reported by Guido Vranken in #4042.
* Fix an errorneous estimation for an internal buffer in
mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(). If MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE is set to an odd
value the function might fail to write a private RSA keys of the largest
supported size.
Found by Daniel Otte, reported in #4093 and fixed in #4094.
* Fix a stack buffer overflow with mbedtls_net_poll() and
mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() when given a file descriptor that is
beyond FD_SETSIZE. Reported by FigBug in #4169.
* Guard against strong local side channel attack against base64 tables by
making access aceess to them use constant flow code.
Bugfix
* Fix use-after-scope error in programs/ssl/ssl_client2.c and ssl_server2.c
* Fix memory leak that occured when calling psa_close_key() on a
wrapped key with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C defined.
* Fix an incorrect error code if an RSA private operation glitched.
* Fix a memory leak in an error case in psa_generate_derived_key_internal().
* Fix a resource leak in CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C
is enabled, on platforms where initializing a mutex allocates resources.
This was a regression introduced in the previous release. Reported in
#4017, #4045 and #4071.
* Ensure that calling mbedtls_rsa_free() or mbedtls_entropy_free()
twice is safe. This happens for RSA when some Mbed TLS library functions
fail. Such a double-free was not safe when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C was
enabled on platforms where freeing a mutex twice is not safe.
* Fix a resource leak in a bad-arguments case of mbedtls_rsa_gen_key()
when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled on platforms where initializing
a mutex allocates resources.
* Fixes a bug where, if the library was configured to include support for
both the old SE interface and the new PSA driver interface, external keys were
not loaded from storage. This was fixed by #3996.
* This change makes 'mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_basic_constraints'
consistent with RFC 5280 4.2.1.9 which says: "Conforming CAs MUST
include this extension in all CA certificates that contain public keys
used to validate digital signatures on certificates and MUST mark the
extension as critical in such certificates." Previous to this change,
the extension was always marked as non-critical. This was fixed by
#3698.
Changes
* A new library C file psa_crypto_client.c has been created to contain
the PSA code needed by a PSA crypto client when the PSA crypto
implementation is not included into the library.
* On recent enough versions of FreeBSD and DragonFlyBSD, the entropy module
now uses the getrandom syscall instead of reading from /dev/urandom.
= mbed TLS 2.25.0 branch released 2020-12-11
API changes
* The numerical values of the PSA Crypto API macros have been updated to
conform to version 1.0.0 of the specification.
* PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER replaces PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4.
The underlying stream cipher is determined by the key type
(PSA_KEY_TYPE_CHACHA20 or PSA_KEY_TYPE_ARC4).
* The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() no longer accept NIST_KW contexts,
as they have no way to check if the output buffer is large enough.
Please use mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext() instead. Credit to OSS-Fuzz and
Cryptofuzz. Fixes #3665.
Requirement changes
* Update the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.12. This silences a
warning on CMake 3.19.0. #3801
New deprecations
* PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4 have been deprecated.
Use PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER instead.
* The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() are deprecated in favour of the new
functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext(). Please note that with AEAD ciphers,
these new functions always append the tag to the ciphertext, and include
the tag in the ciphertext length.
Features
* Partial implementation of the new PSA Crypto accelerator APIs. (Symmetric
ciphers, asymmetric signing/verification and key generation, validate_key
entry point, and export_public_key interface.)
* Add support for ECB to the PSA cipher API.
* In PSA, allow using a key declared with a base key agreement algorithm
in combined key agreement and derivation operations, as long as the key
agreement algorithm in use matches the algorithm the key was declared with.
This is currently non-standard behaviour, but expected to make it into a
future revision of the PSA Crypto standard.
* Add MBEDTLS_TARGET_PREFIX CMake variable, which is prefixed to the mbedtls,
mbedcrypto, mbedx509 and apidoc CMake target names. This can be used by
external CMake projects that include this one to avoid CMake target name
clashes. The default value of this variable is "", so default target names
are unchanged.
* Add support for DTLS-SRTP as defined in RFC 5764. Contributed by Johan
Pascal, improved by Ron Eldor.
* In the PSA API, it is no longer necessary to open persistent keys:
operations now accept the key identifier. The type psa_key_handle_t is now
identical to psa_key_id_t instead of being platform-defined. This bridges
the last major gap to compliance with the PSA Cryptography specification
version 1.0.0. Opening persistent keys is still supported for backward
compatibility, but will be deprecated and later removed in future
releases.
* PSA_AEAD_NONCE_LENGTH, PSA_AEAD_NONCE_MAX_SIZE, PSA_CIPHER_IV_LENGTH and
PSA_CIPHER_IV_MAX_SIZE macros have been added as defined in version
1.0.0 of the PSA Crypto API specification.
Security
* The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() would write past the minimum documented
size of the output buffer when used with NIST_KW. As a result, code using
those functions as documented with NIST_KW could have a buffer overwrite
of up to 15 bytes, with consequences ranging up to arbitrary code
execution depending on the location of the output buffer.
* Limit the size of calculations performed by mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod to
MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE to prevent a potential denial of service when
generating Diffie-Hellman key pairs. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
* A failure of the random generator was ignored in mbedtls_mpi_fill_random(),
which is how most uses of randomization in asymmetric cryptography
(including key generation, intermediate value randomization and blinding)
are implemented. This could cause failures or the silent use of non-random
values. A random generator can fail if it needs reseeding and cannot not
obtain entropy, or due to an internal failure (which, for Mbed TLS's own
CTR_DRBG or HMAC_DRBG, can only happen due to a misconfiguration).
* Fix a compliance issue whereby we were not checking the tag on the
algorithm parameters (only the size) when comparing the signature in the
description part of the cert to the real signature. This meant that a
NULL algorithm parameters entry would look identical to an array of REAL
(size zero) to the library and thus the certificate would be considered
valid. However, if the parameters do not match in *any* way then the
certificate should be considered invalid, and indeed OpenSSL marks these
certs as invalid when mbedtls did not.
Many thanks to guidovranken who found this issue via differential fuzzing
and reported it in #3629.
* Zeroising of local buffers and variables which are used for calculations
in mbedtls_pkcs5_pbkdf2_hmac(), mbedtls_internal_sha*_process(),
mbedtls_internal_md*_process() and mbedtls_internal_ripemd160_process()
functions to erase sensitive data from memory. Reported by
Johan Malmgren and Johan Uppman Bruce from Sectra.
Bugfix
* Fix an invalid (but nonzero) return code from mbedtls_pk_parse_subpubkey()
when the input has trailing garbage. Fixes #2512.
* Fix build failure in configurations where MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is
enabled but ECDSA is disabled. Contributed by jdurkop. Fixes #3294.
* Include the psa_constant_names generated source code in the source tree
instead of generating it at build time. Fixes #3524.
* Fix rsa_prepare_blinding() to retry when the blinding value is not
invertible (mod N), instead of returning MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_RNG_FAILED. This
addresses a regression but is rare in practice (approx. 1 in 2/sqrt(N)).
Found by Synopsys Coverity, fix contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
Fixes #3647.
* Use socklen_t on Android and other POSIX-compliant system
* Fix the build when the macro _GNU_SOURCE is defined to a non-empty value.
Fix #3432.
* Consistently return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT on invalid cipher input
sizes (instead of PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE in some cases) to make the
psa_cipher_* functions compliant with the PSA Crypto API specification.
* mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() now lists Curve25519 and Curve448 under the names
"x25519" and "x448". These curves support ECDH but not ECDSA. If you need
only the curves that support ECDSA, filter the list with
mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do().
* Fix psa_generate_key() returning an error when asked to generate
an ECC key pair on Curve25519 or secp244k1.
* Fix psa_key_derivation_output_key() to allow the output of a combined key
agreement and subsequent key derivation operation to be used as a key
inside of the PSA Crypto core.
* Fix handling of EOF against 0xff bytes and on platforms with unsigned
chars. Fixes a build failure on platforms where char is unsigned. Fixes
#3794.
* Fix an off-by-one error in the additional data length check for
CCM, which allowed encryption with a non-standard length field.
Fixes #3719.
* Correct the default IV size for mbedtls_cipher_info_t structures using
MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB to 0, since ECB mode ciphers don't use IVs.
* Make arc4random_buf available on NetBSD and OpenBSD when _POSIX_C_SOURCE is
defined. Fix contributed in #3571.
* Fix conditions for including string.h in error.c. Fixes #3866.
* psa_set_key_id() now also sets the lifetime to persistent for keys located
in a secure element.
* Attempting to create a volatile key with a non-zero key identifier now
fails. Previously the key identifier was just ignored when creating a
volatile key.
* Attempting to create or register a key with a key identifier in the vendor
range now fails.
* Fix build failures on GCC 11. Fixes #3782.
* Add missing arguments of debug message in mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf.
* Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when the result was negative
(an error condition) and the second operand was aliased to the result.
* Fix a case in elliptic curve arithmetic where an out-of-memory condition
could go undetected, resulting in an incorrect result.
* In CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG, don't reset the reseed interval in seed().
Fixes #2927.
* In PEM writing functions, fill the trailing part of the buffer with null
bytes. This guarantees that the corresponding parsing function can read
the buffer back, which was the case for mbedtls_x509write_{crt,csr}_pem
until this property was inadvertently broken in Mbed TLS 2.19.0.
Fixes #3682.
* Fix a build failure that occurred with the MBEDTLS_AES_SETKEY_DEC_ALT
option on. In this configuration key management methods that are required
for MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_XTS were excluded from the build and made it fail.
Fixes #3818. Reported by John Stroebel.
Changes
* Reduce stack usage significantly during sliding window exponentiation.
Reported in #3591 and fix contributed in #3592 by Daniel Otte.
* The PSA persistent storage format is updated to always store the key bits
attribute. No automatic upgrade path is provided. Previously stored keys
must be erased, or manually upgraded based on the key storage format
specification (docs/architecture/mbed-crypto-storage-specification.md).
Fixes #3740.
* Remove the zeroization of a pointer variable in AES rounds. It was valid
but spurious and misleading since it looked like a mistaken attempt to
zeroize the pointed-to buffer. Reported by Antonio de la Piedra, CEA
Leti, France.
= mbed TLS 2.24.0 branch released 2020-09-01
API changes
* In the PSA API, rename the types of elliptic curve and Diffie-Hellman
group families to psa_ecc_family_t and psa_dh_family_t, in line with the
PSA Crypto API specification version 1.0.0.
Rename associated macros as well:
PSA_ECC_CURVE_xxx renamed to PSA_ECC_FAMILY_xxx
PSA_DH_GROUP_xxx renamed to PSA_DH_FAMILY_xxx
PSA_KEY_TYPE_GET_CURVE renamed to to PSA_KEY_TYPE_ECC_GET_FAMILY
PSA_KEY_TYPE_GET_GROUP renamed to PSA_KEY_TYPE_DH_GET_FAMILY
Default behavior changes
* Stop storing persistent information about externally stored keys created
through PSA Crypto with a volatile lifetime. Reported in #3288 and
contributed by Steven Cooreman in #3382.
Features
* The new function mbedtls_ecp_write_key() exports private ECC keys back to
a byte buffer. It is the inverse of the existing mbedtls_ecp_read_key().
* Support building on e2k (Elbrus) architecture: correctly enable
-Wformat-signedness, and fix the code that causes signed-one-bit-field
and sign-compare warnings. Contributed by makise-homura (Igor Molchanov)
Security
* Fix a vulnerability in the verification of X.509 certificates when
matching the expected common name (the cn argument of
mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()) with the actual certificate name: when the
subjecAltName extension is present, the expected name was compared to any
name in that extension regardless of its type. This means that an
attacker could for example impersonate a 4-bytes or 16-byte domain by
getting a certificate for the corresponding IPv4 or IPv6 (this would
require the attacker to control that IP address, though). Similar attacks
using other subjectAltName name types might be possible. Found and
reported by kFYatek in #3498.
* When checking X.509 CRLs, a certificate was only considered as revoked if
its revocationDate was in the past according to the local clock if
available. In particular, on builds without MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE,
certificates were never considered as revoked. On builds with
MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE, an attacker able to control the local clock (for
example, an untrusted OS attacking a secure enclave) could prevent
revocation of certificates via CRLs. Fixed by no longer checking the
revocationDate field, in accordance with RFC 5280. Reported by
yuemonangong in #3340. Reported independently and fixed by
Raoul Strackx and Jethro Beekman in #3433.
* In (D)TLS record decryption, when using a CBC ciphersuites without the
Encrypt-then-Mac extension, use constant code flow memory access patterns
to extract and check the MAC. This is an improvement to the existing
countermeasure against Lucky 13 attacks. The previous countermeasure was
effective against network-based attackers, but less so against local
attackers. The new countermeasure defends against local attackers, even
if they have access to fine-grained measurements. In particular, this
fixes a local Lucky 13 cache attack found and reported by Tuba Yavuz,
Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihan) Bai, Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler
(University of Florida) and Dave Tian (Purdue University).
* Fix side channel in RSA private key operations and static (finite-field)
Diffie-Hellman. An adversary with precise enough timing and memory access
information (typically an untrusted operating system attacking a secure
enclave) could bypass an existing counter-measure (base blinding) and
potentially fully recover the private key.
* Fix a 1-byte buffer overread in mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_der().
Credit to OSS-Fuzz for detecting the problem and to Philippe Antoine
for pinpointing the problematic code.
* Zeroising of plaintext buffers in mbedtls_ssl_read() to erase unused
application data from memory. Reported in #689 by
Johan Uppman Bruce of Sectra.
Bugfix
* Library files installed after a CMake build no longer have execute
permission.
* Use local labels in mbedtls_padlock_has_support() to fix an invalid symbol
redefinition if the function is inlined.
Reported in #3451 and fix contributed in #3452 by okhowang.
* Fix the endianness of Curve25519 keys imported/exported through the PSA
APIs. psa_import_key and psa_export_key will now correctly expect/output
Montgomery keys in little-endian as defined by RFC7748. Contributed by
Steven Cooreman in #3425.
* Fix build errors when the only enabled elliptic curves are Montgomery
curves. Raised by signpainter in #941 and by Taiki-San in #1412. This
also fixes missing declarations reported by Steven Cooreman in #1147.
* Fix self-test failure when the only enabled short Weierstrass elliptic
curve is secp192k1. Fixes #2017.
* PSA key import will now correctly import a Curve25519/Curve448 public key
instead of erroring out. Contributed by Steven Cooreman in #3492.
* Use arc4random_buf on NetBSD instead of rand implementation with cyclical
lower bits. Fix contributed in #3540.
* Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_md_setup() when using HMAC under low memory
conditions. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #3486.
* Fix bug in redirection of unit test outputs on platforms where stdout is
defined as a macro. First reported in #2311 and fix contributed in #3528.
Changes
* Only pass -Wformat-signedness to versions of GCC that support it. Reported
in #3478 and fix contributed in #3479 by okhowang.
* Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_x509write_csr_der() which
previously could lead to stack overflow on constrained devices.
Contributed by Doru Gucea and Simon Leet in #3464.
* Undefine the ASSERT macro before defining it locally, in case it is defined
in a platform header. Contributed by Abdelatif Guettouche in #3557.
* Update copyright notices to use Linux Foundation guidance. As a result,
the copyright of contributors other than Arm is now acknowledged, and the
years of publishing are no longer tracked in the source files. This also
eliminates the need for the lines declaring the files to be part of
MbedTLS. Fixes #3457.
* Add the command line parameter key_pwd to the ssl_client2 and ssl_server2
example applications which allows to provide a password for the key file
specified through the existing key_file argument. This allows the use of
these applications with password-protected key files. Analogously but for
ssl_server2 only, add the command line parameter key_pwd2 which allows to
set a password for the key file provided through the existing key_file2
argument.
= mbed TLS 2.23.0 branch released 2020-07-01
Default behavior changes
* In the experimental PSA secure element interface, change the encoding of
key lifetimes to encode a persistence level and the location. Although C
prototypes do not effectively change, code calling
psa_register_se_driver() must be modified to pass the driver's location
instead of the keys' lifetime. If the library is upgraded on an existing
device, keys created with the old lifetime value will not be readable or
removable through Mbed TLS after the upgrade.
Features
* New functions in the error module return constant strings for
high- and low-level error codes, complementing mbedtls_strerror()
which constructs a string for any error code, including compound
ones, but requires a writable buffer. Contributed by Gaurav Aggarwal
in #3176.
* The new utility programs/ssl/ssl_context_info prints a human-readable
dump of an SSL context saved with mbedtls_ssl_context_save().
* Add support for midipix, a POSIX layer for Microsoft Windows.
* Add new mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() routine which allows
parsing unsupported certificate extensions via user provided callback.
Contributed by Nicola Di Lieto <[email protected]> in #3243 as
a solution to #3241.
* Pass the "certificate policies" extension to the callback supplied to
mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() if it contains unsupported
policies (#3419).
* Added support to entropy_poll for the kern.arandom syscall supported on
some BSD systems. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3423.
* Add support for Windows 2000 in net_sockets. Contributed by opatomic. #3239
Security
* Fix a side channel vulnerability in modular exponentiation that could
reveal an RSA private key used in a secure enclave. Noticed by Sangho Lee,
Ming-Wei Shih, Prasun Gera, Taesoo Kim and Hyesoon Kim (Georgia Institute
of Technology); and Marcus Peinado (Microsoft Research). Reported by Raoul
Strackx (Fortanix) in #3394.
* Fix side channel in mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv() and
mbedtls_pk_parse_key() / mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile() (when loading a
private key that didn't include the uncompressed public key), as well as
mbedtls_ecp_mul() / mbedtls_ecp_mul_restartable() when called with a NULL
f_rng argument. An attacker with access to precise enough timing and
memory access information (typically an untrusted operating system
attacking a secure enclave) could fully recover the ECC private key.
Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
* Fix issue in Lucky 13 counter-measure that could make it ineffective when
hardware accelerators were used (using one of the MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_ALT
macros). This would cause the original Lucky 13 attack to be possible in
those configurations, allowing an active network attacker to recover
plaintext after repeated timing measurements under some conditions.
Reported and fix suggested by Luc Perneel in #3246.
Bugfix
* Fix the Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration for mbedtls itself.
Completes a previous fix in Mbed TLS 2.19 that only fixed the build for
the example programs. Reported in #1430 and fix contributed by irwir.
* Fix undefined behavior in X.509 certificate parsing if the
pathLenConstraint basic constraint value is equal to INT_MAX.
The actual effect with almost every compiler is the intended
behavior, so this is unlikely to be exploitable anywhere. #3192
* Fix issue with a detected HW accelerated record error not being exposed
due to shadowed variable. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3310.
* Avoid NULL pointer dereferencing if mbedtls_ssl_free() is called with a
NULL pointer argument. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3312.
* Fix potential linker errors on dual world platforms by inlining
mbedtls_gcc_group_to_psa(). This allows the pk.c module to link separately
from psa_crypto.c. Fixes #3300.
* Remove dead code in X.509 certificate parsing. Contributed by irwir in
#2855.
* Include asn1.h in error.c. Fixes #3328 reported by David Hu.
* Fix potential memory leaks in ecp_randomize_jac() and ecp_randomize_mxz()
when PRNG function fails. Contributed by Jonas Lejeune in #3318.
* Remove unused macros from MSVC projects. Reported in #3297 and fix
submitted in #3333 by irwir.
* Add additional bounds checks in ssl_write_client_hello() preventing
output buffer overflow if the configuration declared a buffer that was
too small.
* Set _POSIX_C_SOURCE to at least 200112L in C99 code. Reported in #3420 and
fix submitted in #3421 by Nia Alarie.
* Fix building library/net_sockets.c and the ssl_mail_client program on
NetBSD. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3422.
* Fix false positive uninitialised variable reported by cpp-check.
Contributed by Sander Visser in #3311.
* Update iv and len context pointers manually when reallocating buffers
using the MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH feature. This caused issues
when receiving a connection with CID, when these fields were shifted
in ssl_parse_record_header().
Changes
* Fix warnings about signedness issues in format strings. The build is now
clean of -Wformat-signedness warnings. Contributed by Kenneth Soerensen
in #3153.
* Fix minor performance issue in operations on Curve25519 caused by using a
suboptimal modular reduction in one place. Found and fix contributed by
Aurelien Jarno in #3209.
* Combine identical cases in switch statements in md.c. Contributed
by irwir in #3208.
* Simplify a bounds check in ssl_write_certificate_request(). Contributed
by irwir in #3150.
* Unify the example programs termination to call mbedtls_exit() instead of
using a return command. This has been done to enable customization of the
behavior in bare metal environments.
* Fix mbedtls_x509_dn_gets to escape non-ASCII characters as "?".
Contributed by Koh M. Nakagawa in #3326.
* Use FindPython3 when cmake version >= 3.15.0
* Abort the ClientHello writing function as soon as some extension doesn't
fit into the record buffer. Previously, such extensions were silently
dropped. As a consequence, the TLS handshake now fails when the output
buffer is not large enough to hold the ClientHello.
* The unit tests now rely on header files in tests/include/test and source
files in tests/src. When building with make or cmake, the files in
tests/src are compiled and the resulting object linked into each test
executable.
* The ECP module, enabled by `MBEDTLS_ECP_C`, now depends on
`MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_C` or `MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_C` for some side-channel
coutermeasures. If side channels are not a concern, this dependency can
be avoided by enabling the new option `MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG`.
* Align MSVC error flag with GCC and Clang. Contributed by Carlos Gomes
Martinho. #3147
* Remove superfluous assignment in mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate(). Reported
in #3182 and fix submitted by irwir. #3217
* Fix typo in XTS tests. Reported and fix submitted by Kxuan. #3319
= mbed TLS 2.22.0 branch released 2020-04-14
New deprecations
* Deprecate MBEDTLS_SSL_HW_RECORD_ACCEL that enables function hooks in the
SSL module for hardware acceleration of individual records.
* Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_get_max_frag_len() in favour of
mbedtls_ssl_get_output_max_frag_len() and
mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() to be more precise about which max
fragment length is desired.
Security
* Fix issue in DTLS handling of new associations with the same parameters
(RFC 6347 section 4.2.8): an attacker able to send forged UDP packets to
the server could cause it to drop established associations with
legitimate clients, resulting in a Denial of Service. This could only
happen when MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CLIENT_PORT_REUSE was enabled in config.h
(which it is by default).
* Fix side channel in ECC code that allowed an adversary with access to
precise enough timing and memory access information (typically an
untrusted operating system attacking a secure enclave) to fully recover
an ECDSA private key. Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya,
Billy Brumley and Cesar Pereida Garcia. CVE-2020-10932
* Fix a potentially remotely exploitable buffer overread in a
DTLS client when parsing the Hello Verify Request message.
Features
* The new build option MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH automatically
resizes the I/O buffers before and after handshakes, reducing the memory
consumption during application data transfer.
Bugfix
* Fix compilation failure when both MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_DTLS and
MBEDTLS_SSL_HW_RECORD_ACCEL are enabled.
* Remove a spurious check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity that triggered
a warning with some compilers. Fix contributed by irwir in #2856.
* Fix a function name in a debug message. Contributed by Ercan Ozturk in
#3013.
Changes
* Mbed Crypto is no longer a Git submodule. The crypto part of the library
is back directly in the present repository.
* Split mbedtls_ssl_get_max_frag_len() into
mbedtls_ssl_get_output_max_frag_len() and
mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() to ensure that a sufficient input
buffer is allocated by the server (if MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH
is defined), regardless of what MFL was configured for it.
= mbed TLS 2.21.0 branch released 2020-02-20
New deprecations
* Deprecate MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_SUPPORT_SSLV2_CLIENT_HELLO that enables parsing
SSLv2 ClientHello messages.
* Deprecate MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_SSL3 that enables support for SSLv3.
* Deprecate for MBEDTLS_PKCS11_C, the wrapper around the pkcs11-helper
library which allows TLS authentication to use keys stored in a
PKCS#11 token such as a smartcard.
Security
* Fix potential memory overread when performing an ECDSA signature
operation. The overread only happens with cryptographically low
probability (of the order of 2^-n where n is the bitsize of the curve)
unless the RNG is broken, and could result in information disclosure or
denial of service (application crash or extra resource consumption).
Found by Auke Zeilstra and Peter Schwabe, using static analysis.
* To avoid a side channel vulnerability when parsing an RSA private key,
read all the CRT parameters from the DER structure rather than
reconstructing them. Found by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Bob
Brumley. Reported and fix contributed by Jack Lloyd.
ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#352
Features
* The new build option MBEDTLS_SHA512_NO_SHA384 allows building SHA-512
support without SHA-384.
API changes
* Change the encoding of key types and curves in the PSA API. The new
values are aligned with the upcoming release of the PSA Crypto API
specification version 1.0.0. The main change which may break some
existing code is that elliptic curve key types no longer encode the
exact curve: a psa_ecc_curve_t or psa_key_type_t value only encodes
a curve family and the key size determines the exact curve (for example,
PSA_ECC_CURVE_SECP_R1 with 256 bits is P256R1). ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#330
Bugfix
* Fix an unchecked call to mbedtls_md() in the x509write module.
* Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_ZLIB_SUPPORT enabled. Reported by
Jack Lloyd in #2859. Fix submitted by jiblime in #2963.
* Fix some false-positive uninitialized variable warnings in X.509. Fix
contributed by apple-ihack-geek in #2663.
* Fix a possible error code mangling in psa_mac_verify_finish() when
a cryptographic accelerator fails. ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#345
* Fix a bug in mbedtls_pk_parse_key() that would cause it to accept some
RSA keys that would later be rejected by functions expecting private
keys. Found by Catena cyber using oss-fuzz (issue 20467).
* Fix a bug in mbedtls_pk_parse_key() that would cause it to
accept some RSA keys with invalid values by silently fixing those values.
= mbed TLS 2.20.0 branch released 2020-01-15
Default behavior changes
* The initial seeding of a CTR_DRBG instance makes a second call to the
entropy function to obtain entropy for a nonce if the entropy size is less
than 3/2 times the key size. In case you want to disable the extra call to
grab entropy, you can call mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len() to force the
nonce length to 0.
Security
* Enforce that mbedtls_entropy_func() gathers a total of
MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes or more from strong sources. In the
default configuration, on a platform with a single entropy source, the
entropy module formerly only grabbed 32 bytes, which is good enough for
security if the source is genuinely strong, but less than the expected 64
bytes (size of the entropy accumulator).
* Zeroize local variables in mbedtls_internal_aes_encrypt() and
mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt() before exiting the function. The value of
these variables can be used to recover the last round key. To follow best
practice and to limit the impact of buffer overread vulnerabilities (like
Heartbleed) we need to zeroize them before exiting the function.
Issue reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
Dave Tian (Purdue University).
* Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA. Our bignum implementation is not
constant time/constant trace, so side channel attacks can retrieve the
blinded value, factor it (as it is smaller than RSA keys and not guaranteed
to have only large prime factors), and then, by brute force, recover the
key. Reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
* Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA key generation. Obtaining precise
timings on the comparison in the key generation enabled the attacker to
learn leading bits of the ephemeral key used during ECDSA signatures and to
recover the private key. Reported by Jeremy Dubeuf.
* Catch failure of AES functions in mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random(). Uncaught
failures could happen with alternative implementations of AES. Bug
reported and fix proposed by Johan Uppman Bruce and Christoffer Lauri,
Sectra.
Features
* Key derivation inputs in the PSA API can now either come from a key object
or from a buffer regardless of the step type.
* The CTR_DRBG module can grab a nonce from the entropy source during the
initial seeding. The default nonce length is chosen based on the key size
to achieve the security strength defined by NIST SP 800-90A. You can
change it with mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len().
* Add ENUMERATED tag support to the ASN.1 module. Contributed by
msopiha-linaro in ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#307.
API changes
* In the PSA API, forbid zero-length keys. To pass a zero-length input to a
key derivation function, use a buffer instead (this is now always
possible).
* Rename psa_asymmetric_sign() to psa_sign_hash() and
psa_asymmetric_verify() to psa_verify_hash().
Bugfix
* Fix an incorrect size in a debugging message. Reported and fix
submitted by irwir. Fixes #2717.
* Fix an unused variable warning when compiling without DTLS.
Reported and fix submitted by irwir. Fixes #2800.
* Remove a useless assignment. Reported and fix submitted by irwir.
Fixes #2801.
* Fix a buffer overflow in the PSA HMAC code when using a long key with an
unsupported algorithm. Fixes ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#254.
* Fix mbedtls_asn1_get_int to support any number of leading zeros. Credit
to OSS-Fuzz for finding a bug in an intermediate version of the fix.
* Fix mbedtls_asn1_get_bitstring_null to correctly parse bitstrings of at
most 2 bytes.
* mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() and
mbedtls_hmac_drbg_set_entropy_len() now work if you call them before
mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed() or mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed().
Changes
* Remove the technical possibility to define custom mbedtls_md_info
structures, which was exposed only in an internal header.
* psa_close_key(0) and psa_destroy_key(0) now succeed (doing nothing, as
before).
* Variables containing error codes are now initialized to an error code
rather than success, so that coding mistakes or memory corruption tends to
cause functions to return this error code rather than a success. There are
no known instances where this changes the behavior of the library: this is
merely a robustness improvement. ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#323
* Remove a useless call to mbedtls_ecp_group_free(). Contributed by
Alexander Krizhanovsky in ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#210.
* Speed up PBKDF2 by caching the digest calculation. Contributed by Jack
Lloyd and Fortanix Inc in ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#277.
* Small performance improvement of mbedtls_mpi_div_mpi(). Contributed by
Alexander Krizhanovsky in ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#308.
= mbed TLS 2.19.1 branch released 2019-09-16
Features
* Declare include headers as PUBLIC to propagate to CMake project consumers
Contributed by Zachary J. Fields in PR #2949.
* Add nss_keylog to ssl_client2 and ssl_server2, enabling easier analysis of
TLS sessions with tools like Wireshark.
API Changes
* Make client_random and server_random const in
mbedtls_ssl_export_keys_ext_t, so that the key exporter is discouraged
from modifying the client/server hello.
Bugfix
* Fix some false-positive uninitialized variable warnings in crypto. Fix
contributed by apple-ihack-geek in #2663.
= mbed TLS 2.19.0 branch released 2019-09-06
Security
* Fix a missing error detection in ECJPAKE. This could have caused a
predictable shared secret if a hardware accelerator failed and the other
side of the key exchange had a similar bug.
* When writing a private EC key, use a constant size for the private
value, as specified in RFC 5915. Previously, the value was written
as an ASN.1 INTEGER, which caused the size of the key to leak
about 1 bit of information on average and could cause the value to be
1 byte too large for the output buffer.
* The deterministic ECDSA calculation reused the scheme's HMAC-DRBG to
implement blinding. Because of this for the same key and message the same
blinding value was generated. This reduced the effectiveness of the
countermeasure and leaked information about the private key through side
channels. Reported by Jack Lloyd.
Features
* Add new API functions mbedtls_ssl_session_save() and
mbedtls_ssl_session_load() to allow serializing a session, for example to
store it in non-volatile storage, and later using it for TLS session
resumption.
* Add a new API function mbedtls_ssl_check_record() to allow checking that
an incoming record is valid, authentic and has not been seen before. This
feature can be used alongside Connection ID and SSL context serialisation.
The feature is enabled at compile-time by MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_CHECKING
option.
* New implementation of X25519 (ECDH using Curve25519) from Project Everest
(https://project-everest.github.io/). It can be enabled at compile time
with MBEDTLS_ECDH_VARIANT_EVEREST_ENABLED. This implementation is formally
verified and significantly faster, but is only supported on x86 platforms
(32-bit and 64-bit) using GCC, Clang or Visual Studio. Contributed by
Christoph Wintersteiger from Microsoft Research.
* Add mbedtls_net_close(), enabling the building of forking servers where
the parent process closes the client socket and continue accepting, and
the child process closes the listening socket and handles the client
socket. Contributed by Robert Larsen in #2803.
API Changes
* Add DER-encoded test CRTs to library/certs.c, allowing
the example programs ssl_server2 and ssl_client2 to be run
if MBEDTLS_FS_IO and MBEDTLS_PEM_PARSE_C are unset. Fixes #2254.
* The HAVEGE state type now uses uint32_t elements instead of int.
* The functions mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() and mbedtls_ecp_grp_id_list() now
list all curves for which at least one of ECDH or ECDSA is supported, not
just curves for which both are supported. Call mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do() or
mbedtls_ecdh_can_do() on each result to check whether each algorithm is
supported.
* The new function mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_ext() is similar to
mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det() but allows passing an external RNG for the
purpose of blinding.
New deprecations
* Deprecate mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det() in favor of a functions that can take an
RNG function as an input.
* Calling mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature() with NULL as the f_rng argument
is now deprecated.
Bugfix
* Fix missing bounds checks in X.509 parsing functions that could
lead to successful parsing of ill-formed X.509 CRTs. Fixes #2437.
* Fix multiple X.509 functions previously returning ASN.1 low-level error
codes to always wrap these codes into X.509 high level error codes before
returning. Fixes #2431.
* Fix to allow building test suites with any warning that detects unused
functions. Fixes #1628.
* Fix typo in net_would_block(). Fixes #528 reported by github-monoculture.
* Remove redundant include file in timing.c. Fixes #2640 reported by irwir.
* Fix build failure when building with mingw on Windows by including
stdarg.h where needed. Fixes #2656.
* Fix Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration by inheriting
PlatformToolset from the project configuration. Fixes #1430 reported by
irwir.
* Enable Suite B with subset of ECP curves. Make sure the code compiles even
if some curves are not defined. Fixes #1591 reported by dbedev.
* Fix misuse of signed arithmetic in the HAVEGE module. #2598
* Avoid use of statically sized stack buffers for certificate writing.
This previously limited the maximum size of DER encoded certificates
in mbedtls_x509write_crt_der() to 2Kb. Reported by soccerGB in #2631.
* Fix partial zeroing in x509_get_other_name. Found and fixed by ekse, #2716.
* Update test certificates that were about to expire. Reported by
Bernhard M. Wiedemann in #2357.
* Fix the build on ARMv5TE in ARM mode to not use assembly instructions
that are only available in Thumb mode. Fix contributed by Aurelien Jarno
in #2169.
* Fix propagation of restart contexts in restartable EC operations.
This could previously lead to segmentation faults in builds using an
address-sanitizer and enabling but not using MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE.
* Fix memory leak in in mpi_miller_rabin(). Contributed by
Jens Wiklander <[email protected]> in #2363
* Improve code clarity in x509_crt module, removing false-positive
uninitialized variable warnings on some recent toolchains (GCC8, etc).
Discovered and fixed by Andy Gross (Linaro), #2392.
* Fix bug in endianness conversion in bignum module. This lead to
functionally incorrect code on bigendian systems which don't have
__BYTE_ORDER__ defined. Reported by Brendan Shanks. Fixes #2622.
Changes
* Replace multiple uses of MD2 by SHA-256 in X.509 test suite. Fixes #821.
* Make it easier to define MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED as assert (which config.h
suggests). #2671
* Make `make clean` clean all programs always. Fixes #1862.
* Add a Dockerfile and helper scripts (all-in-docker.sh, basic-in-docker.sh,
docker-env.sh) to simplify running test suites on a Linux host. Contributed
by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
* Add `reproducible` option to `ssl_client2` and `ssl_server2` to enable
test runs without variability. Contributed by Philippe Antoine (Catena
cyber) in #2681.
* Extended .gitignore to ignore Visual Studio artifacts. Fixed by ConfusedSushi.
* Adds fuzz targets, especially for continuous fuzzing with OSS-Fuzz.
Contributed by Philippe Antoine (Catena cyber).
* Remove the crypto part of the library from Mbed TLS. The crypto
code and tests are now only available via Mbed Crypto, which
Mbed TLS references as a Git submodule.
= mbed TLS 2.18.1 branch released 2019-07-12
Bugfix
* Fix build failure when building with mingw on Windows by including
stdarg.h where needed. Fixes #2656.
Changes
* Enable building of Mbed TLS as a CMake subproject. Suggested and fixed by
Ashley Duncan in #2609.
= mbed TLS 2.18.0 branch released 2019-06-11
Features
* Add the Any Policy certificate policy oid, as defined in
rfc 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
* It is now possible to use NIST key wrap mode via the mbedtls_cipher API.
Contributed by Jack Lloyd and Fortanix Inc.
* Add the Wi-SUN Field Area Network (FAN) device extended key usage.
* Add the oid certificate policy x509 extension.
* It is now possible to perform RSA PKCS v1.5 signatures with RIPEMD-160 digest.
Contributed by Jack Lloyd and Fortanix Inc.
* Extend the MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS to export the handshake randbytes,
and the used tls-prf.
* Add public API for tls-prf function, according to requested enum.
* Add support for parsing otherName entries in the Subject Alternative Name
X.509 certificate extension, specifically type hardware module name,
as defined in RFC 4108 section 5.
* Add support for parsing certificate policies extension, as defined in
RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4. Currently, only the "Any Policy" policy is
supported.
* List all SAN types in the subject_alt_names field of the certificate.
Resolves #459.
* Add support for draft-05 of the Connection ID extension, as specified
in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-05.
The Connection ID extension allows to keep DTLS connections beyond the
lifetime of the underlying transport by adding a connection identifier
to the DTLS record header. This identifier can be used to associated an
incoming record with the correct connection data even after the peer has
changed its IP or port. The feature is enabled at compile-time by setting
MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (disabled by default), and at run-time
through the new APIs mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid() and mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().
API Changes
* Extend the MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS to export the handshake randbytes,
and the used tls-prf.
* Add public API for tls-prf function, according to requested enum.
Bugfix
* Fix private key DER output in the key_app_writer example. File contents
were shifted by one byte, creating an invalid ASN.1 tag. Fixed by
Christian Walther in #2239.
* Fix potential memory leak in X.509 self test. Found and fixed by
Junhwan Park, #2106.
* Reduce stack usage of hkdf tests. Fixes #2195.
* Fix 1-byte buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_write_string() when
used with negative inputs. Found by Guido Vranken in #2404. Credit to
OSS-Fuzz.
* Fix bugs in the AEAD test suite which would be exposed by ciphers which
either used both encrypt and decrypt key schedules, or which perform padding.
GCM and CCM were not affected. Fixed by Jack Lloyd.
* Fix incorrect default port number in ssl_mail_client example's usage.
Found and fixed by irwir. #2337
* Add psa_util.h to test/cpp_dummy_build to fix build_default_make_gcc_and_cxx.
Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin). #2579
* Add missing parentheses around parameters in the definition of the
public macro MBEDTLS_X509_ID_FLAG. This could lead to invalid evaluation
in case operators binding less strongly than subtraction were used
for the parameter.
* Add a check for MBEDTLS_X509_CRL_PARSE_C in ssl_server2, guarding the crl
sni entry parameter. Reported by inestlerode in #560.
* Set the next sequence of the subject_alt_name to NULL when deleting
sequence on failure. Found and fix suggested by Philippe Antoine.
Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
Changes
* Server's RSA certificate in certs.c was SHA-1 signed. In the default
mbedTLS configuration only SHA-2 signed certificates are accepted.
This certificate is used in the demo server programs, which lead the
client programs to fail at the peer's certificate verification
due to an unacceptable hash signature. The certificate has been
updated to one that is SHA-256 signed. Fix contributed by
Illya Gerasymchuk.
* Return from various debugging routines immediately if the
provided SSL context is unset.
* Remove dead code from bignum.c in the default configuration.
Found by Coverity, reported and fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin). Fixes #2309.
* Add test for minimal value of MBEDTLS_MPI_WINDOW_SIZE to all.sh.
Contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
* Change wording in the `mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_frag_len()`'s documentation to
improve clarity. Fixes #2258.
= mbed TLS 2.17.0 branch released 2019-03-19
Features
* Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`
which allows copy-less parsing of DER encoded X.509 CRTs,
at the cost of additional lifetime constraints on the input
buffer, but at the benefit of reduced RAM consumption.
* Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() to write ASN.1
named bitstring in DER as required by RFC 5280 Appendix B.
* Add MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES to allow removing 3DES ciphersuites
from the default list (enabled by default). See
https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf.
API Changes
* Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`.
See the Features section for more information.
* Allow to opt in to the removal the API mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
for the benefit of saving RAM, by disabling the new compile-time
option MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE (enabled by default for
API stability). Disabling this option makes mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
always return NULL, and removes the peer_cert field from the
mbedtls_ssl_session structure which otherwise stores the peer's
certificate.
Security
* Make mbedtls_ecdh_get_params return an error if the second key
belongs to a different group from the first. Before, if an application
passed keys that belonged to different group, the first key's data was
interpreted according to the second group, which could lead to either
an error or a meaningless output from mbedtls_ecdh_get_params. In the
latter case, this could expose at most 5 bits of the private key.
Bugfix
* Fix a compilation issue with mbedtls_ecp_restart_ctx not being defined
when MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT is defined. Reported by jwhui. Fixes #2242.
* Run the AD too long test only if MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT is not defined.
Raised as a comment in #1996.
* Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() which could
previously lead to a stack overflow on constrained targets.
* Add `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` for the mbedtls_self_test functions
in the header files, which missed the precompilation check. #971
* Fix returning the value 1 when mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey failed.
* Remove a duplicate #include in a sample program. Fixed by Masashi Honma #2326.
* Remove the mbedtls namespacing from the header file, to fix a "file not found"
build error. Fixed by Haijun Gu #2319.
* Fix signed-to-unsigned integer conversion warning
in X.509 module. Fixes #2212.
* Reduce stack usage of `mpi_write_hlp()` by eliminating recursion.
Fixes #2190.
* Fix false failure in all.sh when backup files exist in include/mbedtls
(e.g. config.h.bak). Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin) #2407.
* Ensure that unused bits are zero when writing ASN.1 bitstrings when using
mbedtls_asn1_write_bitstring().
* Fix issue when writing the named bitstrings in KeyUsage and NsCertType
extensions in CSRs and CRTs that caused these bitstrings to not be encoded
correctly as trailing zeroes were not accounted for as unused bits in the
leading content octet. Fixes #1610.
Changes
* Reduce RAM consumption during session renegotiation by not storing
the peer CRT chain and session ticket twice.
* Include configuration file in all header files that use configuration,
instead of relying on other header files that they include.
Inserted as an enhancement for #1371
* Add support for alternative CSR headers, as used by Microsoft and defined
in RFC 7468. Found by Michael Ernst. Fixes #767.
* Correct many misspellings. Fixed by MisterDA #2371.
* Provide an abstraction of vsnprintf to allow alternative implementations
for platforms that don't provide it. Based on contributions by Joris Aerts
and Nathaniel Wesley Filardo.
* Fix clobber list in MIPS assembly for large integer multiplication.
Previously, this could lead to functionally incorrect assembly being
produced by some optimizing compilers, showing up as failures in
e.g. RSA or ECC signature operations. Reported in #1722, fix suggested
by Aurelien Jarno and submitted by Jeffrey Martin.
