Gilles Peskinec5ccd7a2018-10-05 15:42:52 +02006 * Fix timing variations and memory access variations in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
7 decryption that could lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle
Gilles Peskine056f19c2018-11-29 12:45:01 +01008 attack. In TLS, this affects servers that accept ciphersuites based on
9 RSA decryption (i.e. ciphersuites whose name contains RSA but not
Simon Butcherfabc6002018-12-01 22:43:08 +000010 (EC)DH(E)). Discovered by Eyal Ronen (Weizmann Institute), Robert Gillham
11 (University of Adelaide), Daniel Genkin (University of Michigan),
12 Adi Shamir (Weizmann Institute), David Wong (NCC Group), and Yuval Yarom
13 (University of Adelaide, Data61). The attack is described in more detail
14 in the paper available here: http://cat.eyalro.net/cat.pdf CVE-2018-19608
Gilles Peskine50da0162018-11-29 12:46:05 +010015 * In mbedtls_mpi_write_binary(), don't leak the exact size of the number
16 via branching and memory access patterns. An attacker who could submit
17 a plaintext for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption but only observe the timing
18 of the decryption and not its result could nonetheless decrypt RSA
19 plaintexts and forge RSA signatures. Other asymmetric algorithms may
20 have been similarly vulnerable. Reported by Eyal Ronen, Robert Gillham,
21 Daniel Genkin, Adi Shamir, David Wong and Yuval Yarom.
Gilles Peskine1b09f402018-09-11 18:53:58 +020022 * Wipe sensitive buffers on the stack in the CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG
23 modules.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard8a46c222018-12-11 10:46:41 +010025Features
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard97940982018-12-17 13:13:50 +010026 * Add a new config.h option of MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS that enables validation
27 of parameters in the API. This allows detection of obvious misuses of the
28 API, such as passing NULL pointers. The API of existing functions hasn't
29 changed, but requirements on parameters have been made more explicit in
30 the documentation. See the corresponding API documentation for each
31 function to see for which parameter values it is defined. This feature is
32 disabled by default. See its API documentation in config.h for additional
33 steps you have to take when enabling it.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard12dce612018-12-13 09:48:40 +010035API Changes
36 * The following functions in the random generator modules have been
37 deprecated and replaced as shown below. The new functions change
38 the return type from void to int to allow returning error codes when
39 using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT for the underlying AES or message digest
40 primitive. Fixes #1798.
41 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret()
42 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret()
43 * Extend ECDH interface to enable alternative implementations.
Hanno Beckera0343692018-12-18 09:42:58 +000044 * Deprecate the ARIA error MBEDTLS_ERR_ARIA_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH
45 in favour of a new generic error MBEDTLS_ERR_ARIA_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
Hanno Becker938f9e92018-12-18 09:40:25 +000046 * Deprecate the CAMELLIA error MBEDTLS_ERR_CAMELLIA_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH
47 in favour a new generic error MBEDTLS_ERR_CAMELLIA_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
Hanno Becker6640b0d2018-12-18 09:45:17 +000048 * Deprecate the Blowfish error MBEDTLS_ERR_BLOWFISH_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH
49 in favour of a new generic error MBEDTLS_ERR_BLOWFISH_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
k-stachowiak9af22e42018-12-13 14:49:27 +010050 * Add validation checks for input parameters to functions in the GCM module.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard12dce612018-12-13 09:48:40 +010051
Gilles Peskine5da05052018-09-11 18:59:55 +020052New deprecations
53 * Deprecate mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update
54 in favor of functions that can return an error code.

Simon Butcherb3633822018-07-30 22:10:48 +010056Bugfix
Simon Butcherdf0500d2018-09-30 12:27:26 +010057 * Fix for Clang, which was reporting a warning for the bignum.c inline
58 assembly for AMD64 targets creating string literals greater than those
59 permitted by the ISO C99 standard. Found by Aaron Jones. Fixes #482.
Hanno Becker5e0924c2018-10-18 12:11:54 +010060 * Fix runtime error in `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` when run
61 through qemu user emulation. Reported and fix suggested by randombit
62 in #1212. Fixes #1212.
Hanno Beckera7d2fa72018-10-24 13:41:43 +010063 * Fix an unsafe bounds check when restoring an SSL session from a ticket.
64 This could lead to a buffer overflow, but only in case ticket authentication
65 was broken. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #659.
Jaeden Amero9055a7d2018-12-06 16:09:58 +000066 * Add explicit integer to enumeration type casts to example program
67 programs/pkey/gen_key which previously led to compilation failure
68 on some toolchains. Reported by phoenixmcallister. Fixes #2170.
Janos Follath855def12018-12-07 10:04:17 +000069 * Fix double initialization of ECC hardware that made some accelerators
70 hang.

Hanno Beckerd3445da2018-11-02 09:36:45 +000074Security
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +000075 * Fix overly strict DN comparison when looking for CRLs belonging to a
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +000076 particular CA. This previously led to ignoring CRLs when the CRL's issuer
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +000077 name and the CA's subject name differed in their string encoding (e.g.,
78 one using PrintableString and the other UTF8String) or in the choice of
79 upper and lower case. Reported by Henrik Andersson of Bosch GmbH in issue
80 #1784.
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +010081 * Fix a flawed bounds check in server PSK hint parsing. In case the
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +000082 incoming message buffer was placed within the first 64KiB of address
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +010083 space and a PSK-(EC)DHE ciphersuite was used, this allowed an attacker
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +000084 to trigger a memory access up to 64KiB beyond the incoming message buffer,
85 potentially leading to an application crash or information disclosure.
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +010086 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() to use more rounds of probabilistic testing. The
87 previous settings for the number of rounds made it practical for an
88 adversary to construct non-primes that would be erroneously accepted as
89 primes with high probability. This does not have an impact on the
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +000090 security of TLS, but can matter in other contexts with numbers chosen
91 potentially by an adversary that should be prime and can be validated.
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +010092 For example, the number of rounds was enough to securely generate RSA key
93 pairs or Diffie-Hellman parameters, but was insufficient to validate
94 Diffie-Hellman parameters properly.

96 Kenneth G. Paterson and Juraj Somorovsky.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard171a4812017-05-15 17:23:37 +020098Features
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +020099 * Add support for temporarily suspending expensive ECC computations after
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +0000100 some configurable amount of operations. This is intended to be used in
101 constrained, single-threaded systems where ECC is time consuming and can
102 block other operations until they complete. This is disabled by default,
103 but can be enabled by MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE at compile time and
104 configured by mbedtls_ecp_set_max_ops() at runtime. It applies to the new
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +0200105 xxx_restartable functions in ECP, ECDSA, PK and X.509 (CRL not supported
106 yet), and to existing functions in ECDH and SSL (currently only
107 implemented client-side, for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphersuites in TLS 1.2,
108 including client authentication).
Simon Butcher4a865ef2018-10-28 18:00:51 +0000109 * Add support for Arm CPU DSP extensions to accelerate asymmetric key
110 operations. On CPUs where the extensions are available, they can accelerate
111 MPI multiplications used in ECC and RSA cryptography. Contributed by
112 Aurelien Jarno.
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +0000113 * Extend RSASSA-PSS signature to allow a smaller salt size. Previously, PSS
114 signature always used a salt with the same length as the hash, and returned
115 an error if this was not possible. Now the salt size may be up to two bytes
116 shorter. This allows the library to support all hash and signature sizes
117 that comply with FIPS 186-4, including SHA-512 with a 1024-bit key.
Simon Butcher06d80cf2018-11-06 23:46:04 +0000118 * Add support for 128-bit keys in CTR_DRBG. Note that using keys shorter
119 than 256 bits limits the security of generated material to 128 bits.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard823c9152018-07-02 12:05:49 +0200120
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +0000121API Changes
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +0000122 * Add a common error code of `MBEDTLS_ERR_PLATFORM_FEATURE_UNSUPPORTED` for
123 a feature that is not supported by underlying alternative
124 implementations implementing cryptographic primitives. This is useful for
125 hardware accelerators that don't implement all options or features.
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +0000126
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +0300127New deprecations
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +0000128 * All module specific errors following the form
129 MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE that indicate a feature is not
130 supported are deprecated and are now replaced by the new equivalent
131 platform error.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000132 * All module specific generic hardware acceleration errors following the
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +0000133 form MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED that are deprecated and are replaced
134 by the equivalent plaform error.
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +0100135 * Deprecate the function mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() in favor of
136 mbedtls_mpi_is_prime_ext() which allows specifying the number of
137 Miller-Rabin rounds.
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +0300138
Simon Butcherb3633822018-07-30 22:10:48 +0100139Bugfix
Simon Butcher2b5be1e2018-10-30 15:55:10 +0000140 * Fix wrong order of freeing in programs/ssl/ssl_server2 example
141 application leading to a memory leak in case both
142 MBEDTLS_MEMORY_BUFFER_ALLOC_C and MBEDTLS_MEMORY_BACKTRACE are set.
143 Fixes #2069.
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +0100144 * Fix a bug in the update function for SSL ticket keys which previously
145 invalidated keys of a lifetime of less than a 1s. Fixes #1968.
146 * Fix failure in hmac_drbg in the benchmark sample application, when
147 MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is defined. Found by TrinityTonic, #1095
Hanno Beckerf24c3362018-10-17 14:53:05 +0100148 * Fix a bug in the record decryption routine ssl_decrypt_buf()
149 which lead to accepting properly authenticated but improperly
150 padded records in case of CBC ciphersuites using Encrypt-then-MAC.
Hanno Becker617a3212018-10-05 09:51:36 +0100151 * Fix memory leak and freeing without initialization in the example
152 program programs/x509/cert_write. Fixes #1422.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000153 * Ignore IV in mbedtls_cipher_set_iv() when the cipher mode is
154 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB. Found by ezdevelop. Fixes #1091.
Hanno Becker7e1f3be2018-10-15 13:20:28 +0100155 * Zeroize memory used for buffering or reassembling handshake messages
156 after use.
157 * Use `mbedtls_platform_zeroize()` instead of `memset()` for zeroization
158 of sensitive data in the example programs aescrypt2 and crypt_and_hash.
Hanno Beckerf143a782018-11-06 17:43:16 +0000159 * Change the default string format used for various X.509 DN attributes to
160 UTF8String. Previously, the use of the PrintableString format led to
161 wildcards and non-ASCII characters being unusable in some DN attributes.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000162 Reported by raprepo in #1860 and by kevinpt in #468. Fix contributed by
163 Thomas-Dee.
Hanno Beckere4f965d2018-10-11 10:54:45 +0100164 * Fix compilation failure for configurations which use compile time
165 replacements of standard calloc/free functions through the macros
166 MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_CALLOC_MACRO and MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_FREE_MACRO.
167 Reported by ole-de and ddhome2006. Fixes #882, #1642 and #1706.
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +0100168
169Changes
Simon Butcherc0514bf2018-09-26 18:07:18 +0100170 * Removed support for Yotta as a build tool.
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +0100171 * Add tests for session resumption in DTLS.
Gilles Peskine604ccc62018-07-10 15:55:52 +0200172 * Close a test gap in (D)TLS between the client side and the server side:
173 test the handling of large packets and small packets on the client side
174 in the same way as on the server side.
Simon Butcherddc9e262018-10-27 18:27:41 +0100175 * Change the dtls_client and dtls_server samples to work by default over
176 IPv6 and optionally by a build option over IPv4.
Simon Butcher404aa652018-10-01 14:44:22 +0100177 * Change the use of Windows threading to use Microsoft Visual C++ runtime
178 calls, rather than Win32 API calls directly. This is necessary to avoid
179 conflict with C runtime usage. Found and fixed by irwir.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000180 * Remember the string format of X.509 DN attributes when replicating
181 X.509 DNs. Previously, DN attributes were always written in their default
182 string format (mostly PrintableString), which could lead to CRTs being
183 created which used PrintableStrings in the issuer field even though the
184 signing CA used UTF8Strings in its subject field; while X.509 compliant,
185 such CRTs were rejected in some applications, e.g. some versions of
186 Firefox, curl and GnuTLS. Reported in #1033 by Moschn. Fix contributed by
187 Thomas-Dee.
Hanno Becker0bb204c2018-10-30 10:08:33 +0000188 * Improve documentation of mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result().
189 Fixes #517 reported by github-monoculture.
Janos Follath33329372018-09-06 10:41:33 +0100190 * Add MBEDTLS_MPI_GEN_PRIME_FLAG_LOW_ERR flag to mbedtls_mpi_gen_prime() and
191 use it to reduce error probability in RSA key generation to levels mandated
192 by FIPS-186-4.

Hanno Beckeracef2922018-09-05 16:19:07 +0100197 * Extend the platform module with an abstraction mbedtls_platform_gmtime_r()
Hanno Becker921b76d2018-09-05 16:21:36 +0100198 whose implementation should behave as a thread-safe version of gmtime().
Andres Amaya Garciaa7b9f152018-08-16 21:46:35 +0100199 This allows users to configure such an implementation at compile time when
Hanno Beckeracef2922018-09-05 16:19:07 +0100200 the target system cannot be deduced automatically, by setting the option
201 MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_GMTIME_R_ALT. At this stage Mbed TLS is only able to

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6e7aaca2018-08-20 10:37:23 +0200217 * Add support for fragmentation of outgoing DTLS handshake messages. This
218 is controlled by the maximum fragment length as set locally or negotiated
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf2f1d402018-08-21 09:53:22 +0200219 with the peer, as well as by a new per-connection MTU option, set using

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardb8eec192018-08-20 09:34:02 +0200221 * Add support for auto-adjustment of MTU to a safe value during the
222 handshake when flights do not get through (RFC 6347, section 4.1.1.1,
223 last paragraph).
Hanno Beckerd87a59c2018-08-14 16:34:55 +0100224 * Add support for packing multiple records within a single datagram,
225 enabled by default.
Hanno Becker02f6f5a2018-08-28 12:54:27 +0100226 * Add support for buffering out-of-order handshake messages in DTLS.
Hanno Beckeraa249372018-08-22 10:27:13 +0100227 The maximum amount of RAM used for this can be controlled by the

Simon Butcherb5afb972018-08-31 11:59:56 +0100236 * Fix a potential memory leak in mbedtls_ssl_setup() function. An allocation
237 failure in the function could lead to other buffers being leaked.
Gilles Peskine104d8582018-06-27 10:57:33 +0200238 * Fixes an issue with MBEDTLS_CHACHAPOLY_C which would not compile if
239 MBEDTLS_ARC4_C and MBEDTLS_CIPHER_NULL_CIPHER weren't also defined. #1890
Jaeden Amerof48163a2018-08-10 10:49:10 +0100240 * Fix a memory leak in ecp_mul_comb() if ecp_precompute_comb() fails.
241 Fix contributed by Espressif Systems.

250 with TLS versions 1.1 and earlier when the server requested authentication
251 without providing a list of CAs. This was due to an overly strict bounds
252 check in parsing the CertificateRequest message,

278 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC and using SHA-384,
279 in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed an active network attacker to
280 partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions by
281 exploiting timing measurements. With DTLS, the attacker could perform
282 this recovery by sending many messages in the same connection. With TLS
283 or if mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only
284 worked if the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly
285 sent over connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM
286 or CCM instead of CBC, using hash sizes other than SHA-384, or using
287 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. The vulnerability was
288 caused by a miscalculation (for SHA-384) in a countermeasure to the
289 original Lucky 13 attack. Found by Kenny Paterson, Eyal Ronen and Adi
290 Shamir.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cc1fb02018-06-28 12:10:27 +0200291 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC, in (D)TLS 1.0 to
292 1.2, that allowed a local attacker, able to execute code on the local

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard830ce112018-07-11 18:27:08 +0200294 plaintext of messages under some conditions by using a cache attack
295 targetting an internal MD/SHA buffer. With TLS or if
296 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only worked if
297 the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly sent over
298 connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM or CCM

411 functionality shared by multiple Mbed TLS modules. At this stage
412 platform_util.h (and its associated platform_util.c) only contain
413 mbedtls_platform_zeroize(), which is a critical function from a security
414 point of view. mbedtls_platform_zeroize() needs to be regularly tested

433 during certificate validation. Additionally, the issue could also lead to
434 unnecessary callback checks being made or to some validation checks to be
435 omitted. The overread could be triggered remotely, while the other issues
436 would require a non DER-compliant certificate to be correctly signed by a
437 trusted CA, or a trusted CA with a non DER-compliant certificate. Found by

439 * Fix the buffer length assertion in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
440 function which led to an arbitrary overread of the message buffer. The
441 overreads could be caused by receiving a malformed message at the point
442 where an optional signature algorithms list is expected when the signature

Gilles Peskineb9e86962018-04-04 09:20:59 +0200489 * Fix overriding and ignoring return values when parsing and writing to
490 a file in pk_sign program. Found by kevlut in #1142.
Hanno Beckerc53826b2017-10-12 07:46:41 +0100491 * Restrict usage of error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ to situations
492 where data needs to be fetched from the underlying transport in order
493 to make progress. Previously, this error code was also occasionally
494 returned when unexpected messages were being discarded, ignoring that
495 further messages could potentially already be pending to be processed
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100496 in the internal buffers; these cases led to deadlocks when event-driven
497 I/O was used. Found and reported by Hubert Mis in #772.
Gilles Peskinef2b76cd2018-04-19 17:41:39 +0200498 * Fix buffer length assertions in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
499 function which leads to a potential one byte overread of the message
500 buffer.
Andrzej Kurek5462e022018-04-20 07:58:53 -0400501 * Fix invalid buffer sizes passed to zlib during record compression and
502 decompression.
Simon Butchere6a2a1a2018-05-01 13:57:53 +0100503 * Fix the soversion of libmbedcrypto to match the soversion of the
504 maintained 2.7 branch. The soversion was increased in Mbed TLS
505 version 2.7.1 to reflect breaking changes in that release, but the
506 increment was missed in 2.8.0 and later releases outside of the 2.7 branch.

514 * Improve negative testing of X.509 parsing.
Andres Amaya Garcia768bbaf2018-03-21 15:05:12 +0000515 * Do not define global mutexes around readdir() and gmtime() in
516 configurations where the feature is disabled. Found and fixed by Gergely
517 Budai.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100518 * Harden the function mbedtls_ssl_config_free() against misuse, so that it
519 doesn't leak memory if the user doesn't use mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk() and
520 instead incorrectly manipulates the configuration structure directly.
521 Found and fix submitted by junyeonLEE in #1220.
Andres Amaya Garciacb47a792018-03-27 21:19:50 +0100522 * Provide an empty implementation of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() when
523 MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is not enabled. This allows the use of PBKDF2
524 without PBES2. Fixed by Marcos Del Sol Vives.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfff308e2018-03-28 11:13:05 +0200525 * Add the order of the base point as N in the mbedtls_ecp_group structure
526 for Curve25519 (other curves had it already). Contributed by Nicholas
527 Wilson #481
Jaeden Amero4ba87fc2018-03-29 11:01:38 +0100528 * Improve the documentation of mbedtls_net_accept(). Contributed by Ivan

Darryl Greeneea1c4e2018-03-29 16:05:44 +0100530 * Improve the documentation of mbedtls_ssl_write(). Suggested by
531 Paul Sokolovsky in #1356.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100532 * Add an option in the Makefile to support ar utilities where the operation
Andres Amaya Garciad1b17882018-03-27 19:14:24 +0100533 letter must not be prefixed by '-', such as LLVM. Found and fixed by
534 Alex Hixon.
Andres Amaya Garciaea5a8a42018-03-25 23:57:09 +0100535 * Allow configuring the shared library extension by setting the DLEXT
Andres Amaya Garciad1b17882018-03-27 19:14:24 +0100536 environment variable when using the project makefiles.
Gilles Peskine4e4be7c2018-03-21 16:29:03 +0100537 * Optimize unnecessary zeroing in mbedtls_mpi_copy. Based on a contribution

Gilles Peskinea09453f2018-04-04 09:14:12 +0200539 * In the SSL module, when f_send, f_recv or f_recv_timeout report
540 transmitting more than the required length, return an error. Raised by
541 Sam O'Connor in #1245.
Gilles Peskinec96ccf42018-03-31 22:57:03 +0200542 * Improve robustness of mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys against the use of
543 HMAC functions with non-HMAC ciphersuites. Independently contributed
544 by Jiayuan Chen in #1377. Fixes #1437.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100545 * Improve security of RSA key generation by including criteria from
546 FIPS 186-4. Contributed by Jethro Beekman. #1380
Gilles Peskine81021ca2018-04-19 20:59:06 +0200547 * Declare functions in header files even when an alternative implementation
548 of the corresponding module is activated by defining the corresponding
549 MBEDTLS_XXX_ALT macro. This means that alternative implementations do
550 not need to copy the declarations, and ensures that they will have the
551 same API.
Andrzej Kurekaca09c72018-04-13 05:18:08 -0400552 * Add platform setup and teardown calls in test suites.

Gilles Peskine04f9bd02018-02-22 15:22:44 +0100556Default behavior changes
557 * The truncated HMAC extension now conforms to RFC 6066. This means
558 that when both sides of a TLS connection negotiate the truncated
559 HMAC extension, Mbed TLS can now interoperate with other
560 compliant implementations, but this breaks interoperability with
561 prior versions of Mbed TLS. To restore the old behavior, enable
562 the (deprecated) option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT in
563 config.h. Found by Andreas Walz (ivESK, Offenburg University of

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +0000638 * Fix a heap corruption issue in the implementation of the truncated HMAC
639 extension. When the truncated HMAC extension is enabled and CBC is used,
640 sending a malicious application packet could be used to selectively corrupt
641 6 bytes on the peer's heap, which could potentially lead to crash or remote
642 code execution. The issue could be triggered remotely from either side in
643 both TLS and DTLS. CVE-2018-0488
644 * Fix a buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the hash was too large
645 for the key size, which could potentially lead to crash or remote code
646 execution. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm Product Security Initiative,
647 Qualcomm Technologies Inc. CVE-2018-0487
648 * Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the unmasked data is all
649 zeros.
650 * Fix an unsafe bounds check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity() when adding
651 64 KiB to the address of the SSL buffer and causing a wrap around.
652 * Fix a potential heap buffer overflow in mbedtls_ssl_write(). When the (by
Hanno Becker930025d2017-09-18 16:07:19 +0100653 default enabled) maximum fragment length extension is disabled in the
654 config and the application data buffer passed to mbedtls_ssl_write
655 is larger than the internal message buffer (16384 bytes by default), the
656 latter overflows. The exploitability of this issue depends on whether the
657 application layer can be forced into sending such large packets. The issue
658 was independently reported by Tim Nordell via e-mail and by Florin Petriuc
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +0000659 and sjorsdewit on GitHub. Fix proposed by Florin Petriuc in #1022.

666 being leaked to memory after release.
Janos Follathb174c842017-09-20 16:26:04 +0100667 * Fix dhm_check_range() failing to detect trivial subgroups and potentially
668 leaking 1 bit of the private key. Reported by prashantkspatil.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +0000669 * Make mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() constant-time with respect to the input
670 data. Previously, trailing zero bytes were detected and omitted for the
671 sake of saving memory, but potentially leading to slight timing
672 differences. Reported by Marco Macchetti, Kudelski Group.

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +0000711 mbedtls_rsa_import() and mbedtls_rsa_complete() are introduced for setting
Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +0000712 up RSA contexts from partial key material and having them completed to the
713 needs of the implementation automatically. This allows to setup private RSA
714 contexts from keys consisting of N,D,E only, even if P,Q are needed for the
715 purpose or CRT and/or blinding.
716 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_RSA_ALT can be used to define alternative
717 implementations of the RSA interface declared in rsa.h.
Gilles Peskine0a969102018-01-22 14:55:20 +0100718 * The following functions in the message digest modules (MD2, MD4, MD5,
719 SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) have been deprecated and replaced as shown below.
720 The new functions change the return type from void to int to allow

Gilles Peskine0a969102018-01-22 14:55:20 +0100827 * Update all internal usage of deprecated message digest functions to the
828 new ones with return codes. In particular, this modifies the
829 mbedtls_md_info_t structure. Propagate errors from these functions
830 everywhere except some locations in the ssl_tls.c module.
Jaeden Amero791e08a2018-01-26 12:04:12 +0000831 * Improve CTR_DRBG error handling by propagating underlying AES errors.

Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +0100976 * Add hardware acceleration support for the Elliptic Curve Point module.
977 This involved exposing parts of the internal interface to enable
978 replacing the core functions and adding and alternative, module level
979 replacement support for enabling the extension of the interface.
Janos Follath7a8a0902017-04-10 16:13:06 +0100980 * Add a new configuration option to 'mbedtls_ssl_config' to enable
981 suppressing the CA list in Certificate Request messages. The default
982 behaviour has not changed, namely every configured CAs name is included.
983
Andres AGf5bf7182017-03-03 14:09:56 +0000984API Changes
985 * The following functions in the AES module have been deprecated and replaced
986 by the functions shown below. The new functions change the return type from
987 void to int to allow returning error codes when using MBEDTLS_AES_ALT,
988 MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT or MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT.

1006 using RSA through the PK module in 64-bit systems. The issue was caused by
1007 some data loss when casting a size_t to an unsigned int value in the
1008 functions rsa_verify_wrap(), rsa_sign_wrap(), rsa_alt_sign_wrap() and
1009 mbedtls_pk_sign(). Found by Jean-Philippe Aumasson.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88d37852015-06-17 14:26:49 +02001404Features
1405 * Support for DTLS 1.0 and 1.2 (RFC 6347).
1406 * Ability to override core functions from MDx, SHAx, AES and DES modules
1407 with custom implementation (eg hardware accelerated), complementing the
1408 ability to override the whole module.
1409 * New server-side implementation of session tickets that rotate keys to
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard4d7fbbf2014-10-15 15:40:55 +02001410 preserve forward secrecy, and allows sharing across multiple contexts.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02001411 * Added a concept of X.509 cerificate verification profile that controls
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda25ffc32015-06-25 12:01:16 +02001412 which algorithms and key sizes (curves for ECDSA) are acceptable.
1413 * Expanded configurability of security parameters in the SSL module with
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001414 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dhm_min_bitlen() and mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6e088f92015-05-06 17:53:08 +01001415 * Introduced a concept of presets for SSL security-relevant configuration
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001416 parameters.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard898e0aa2015-06-18 15:28:12 +02001418API Changes
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard797f48a2015-06-18 15:45:05 +02001419 * The library has been split into libmbedcrypto, libmbedx509, libmbedtls.
1420 You now need to link to all of them if you use TLS for example.
1421 * All public identifiers moved to the mbedtls_* or MBEDTLS_* namespace.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001422 Some names have been further changed to make them more consistent.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02001423 Migration helpers scripts/rename.pl and include/mbedlts/compat-1.3.h are
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02001424 provided. Full list of renamings in scripts/data_files/rename-1.3-2.0.txt
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02001425 * Renamings of fields inside structures, not covered by the previous list:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard41d479e2015-04-29 00:48:22 +02001426 mbedtls_cipher_info_t.key_length -> key_bitlen
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02001427 mbedtls_cipher_context_t.key_length -> key_bitlen
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc34e8dd2015-04-28 21:42:17 +02001428 mbedtls_ecp_curve_info.size -> bit_size
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02001429 * Headers are now found in the 'mbedtls' directory (previously 'polarssl').
1430 * The following _init() functions that could return errors have
Tillmann Karras588ad502015-09-25 04:27:22 +02001431 been split into an _init() that returns void and another function that
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02001432 should generally be the first function called on this context after init:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001433 mbedtls_ssl_init() -> mbedtls_ssl_setup()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02001434 mbedtls_ccm_init() -> mbedtls_ccm_setkey()
1435 mbedtls_gcm_init() -> mbedtls_gcm_setkey()
1436 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_init() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed(_buf)()
1437 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_init() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001438 Note that for mbedtls_ssl_setup(), you need to be done setting up the
1439 ssl_config structure before calling it.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9a1a4d62015-05-11 10:35:53 +02001440 * Most ssl_set_xxx() functions (all except ssl_set_bio(), ssl_set_hostname(),
1441 ssl_set_session() and ssl_set_client_transport_id(), plus
1442 ssl_legacy_renegotiation()) have been renamed to mbedtls_ssl_conf_xxx()
1443 (see rename.pl and compat-1.3.h above) and their first argument's type
1444 changed from ssl_context to ssl_config.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02001445 * ssl_set_bio() changed signature (contexts merged, order switched, one
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc2b7712015-05-06 11:14:19 +01001446 additional callback for read-with-timeout).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02001447 * The following functions have been introduced and must be used in callback
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5cb33082015-05-06 18:06:26 +01001448 implementations (SNI, PSK) instead of their *conf counterparts:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard866eb472015-05-25 19:41:37 +02001449 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_own_cert()
1450 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ca_chain()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfd474232015-06-23 16:34:24 +02001451 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk()
1452 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_ca_chain() lost its last argument (peer_cn), now set
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02001453 using mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001454 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_cache() changed prototype (only one context
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02001455 pointer, parameters reordered).
1456 * On server, mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets_cb() must now be used in
1457 place of mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets() to enable session tickets.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001458 * The SSL debug callback gained two new arguments (file name, line number).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02001459 * Debug modes were removed.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc6ff232015-06-02 16:33:08 +01001460 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_truncated_hmac() now returns void.
1461 * mbedtls_memory_buffer_alloc_init() now returns void.
1462 * X.509 verification flags are now an uint32_t. Affect the signature of:
1463 mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result()
1464 mbedtls_x509_ctr_verify_info()
1465 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (flags, f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard91895852015-06-30 13:34:45 +02001466 mbedtls_ssl_conf_verify() (f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)
1467 * The following functions changed prototype to avoid an in-out length
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0b104b02015-05-14 21:52:40 +02001468 parameter:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard8f5fd312015-04-24 14:42:34 +02001469 mbedtls_base64_encode()
1470 mbedtls_base64_decode()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarddfdcac92015-03-31 11:41:42 +02001471 mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
1472 mbedtls_dhm_calc_secret()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardb8cfe3f2015-03-31 11:04:45 +02001473 * In the NET module, all "int" and "int *" arguments for file descriptors
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cd10ad2015-06-23 11:07:37 +02001474 changed type to "mbedtls_net_context *".
1475 * net_accept() gained new arguments for the size of the client_ip buffer.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda958d692015-03-27 10:23:53 +01001476 * In the threading layer, mbedtls_mutex_init() and mbedtls_mutex_free() now
1477 return void.
1478 * ecdsa_write_signature() gained an addtional md_alg argument and
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard75f90102015-03-27 09:56:18 +01001479 ecdsa_write_signature_det() was deprecated.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard43b37cb2015-05-12 11:20:10 +02001480 * pk_sign() no longer accepts md_alg == POLARSSL_MD_NONE with ECDSA.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard35f1d7f2015-03-19 12:42:40 +00001483 * test_ca_list (from certs.h) is renamed to test_cas_pem and is only
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5b9e5b12015-05-26 17:46:09 +02001484 available if POLARSSL_PEM_PARSE_C is defined (it never worked without).
1485 * Test certificates in certs.c are no longer guaranteed to be nul-terminated
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1b8de572015-05-27 16:49:37 +02001486 strings; use the new *_len variables instead of strlen().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88bdb0b2015-03-10 14:02:33 +00001487 * Functions mbedtls_x509_xxx_parse(), mbedtls_pk_parse_key(),
1488 mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() and mbedtls_dhm_parse_dhm() now expect the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard60c793b2015-06-18 20:52:58 +02001489 length parameter to include the terminating null byte for PEM input.
1490 * Signature of mpi_mul_mpi() changed to make the last argument unsigned
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02001491 * calloc() is now used instead of malloc() everywhere. API of platform
1492 layer and the memory_buffer_alloc module changed accordingly.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc0d74942015-06-23 12:30:57 +02001493 (Thanks to Mansour Moufid for helping with the replacement.)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001494 * Change SSL_DISABLE_RENEGOTIATION config.h flag to SSL_RENEGOTIATION
1495 (support for renegotiation now needs explicit enabling in config.h).
1496 * Split MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME into MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME and MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardaff37e52015-05-11 18:11:57 +02001497 in config.h
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard56cc88a2015-05-11 18:40:45 +02001498 * net_connect() and net_bind() have a new 'proto' argument to choose
1499 between TCP and UDP, using the macros NET_PROTO_TCP or NET_PROTO_UDP.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard41b9c2b2015-05-28 14:56:20 +02001500 Their 'port' argument type is changed to a string.
1501 * Some constness fixes
1502

1506 mbedtls_ecp_muladd().
1507 * Removed individual mdX_hmac, shaX_hmac, mdX_file and shaX_file functions
1508 (use generic functions from md.h)
1509 * Removed mbedtls_timing_msleep(). Use mbedtls_net_usleep() or a custom
1510 waiting function.
1511 * Removed test DHM parameters from the test certs module.
1512 * Removed the PBKDF2 module (use PKCS5).
1513 * Removed POLARSSL_ERROR_STRERROR_BC (use mbedtls_strerror()).
1514 * Removed compat-1.2.h (helper for migrating from 1.2 to 1.3).
1515 * Removed openssl.h (very partial OpenSSL compatibility layer).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1022fed2015-03-27 16:30:47 +01001516 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_LONGLONG was removed (now always on).

1525 * md_init_ctx() is deprecated in favour of md_setup(), that adds a third
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard50518f42015-05-26 11:04:15 +02001526 argument (allowing memory savings if HMAC is not used)
1527
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1d0ca1a2015-03-27 16:50:00 +01001528Semi-API changes (technically public, morally private)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard50518f42015-05-26 11:04:15 +02001529 * Renamed a few headers to include _internal in the name. Those headers are
1530 not supposed to be included by users.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1022fed2015-03-27 16:30:47 +01001531 * Changed md_info_t into an opaque structure (use md_get_xxx() accessors).

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard348bcb32015-03-31 14:01:33 +02001539Default behavior changes
1540 * The default minimum TLS version is now TLS 1.0.
1541 * RC4 is now blacklisted by default in the SSL/TLS layer, and excluded from the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1028b742015-05-06 17:33:07 +01001542 default ciphersuite list returned by ssl_list_ciphersuites()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88d37852015-06-17 14:26:49 +02001543 * Support for receiving SSLv2 ClientHello is now disabled by default at
1544 compile time.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard662c6e82015-05-06 17:39:23 +01001545 * The default authmode for SSL/TLS clients is now REQUIRED.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcb46fd82015-05-28 17:06:07 +02001546 * Support for RSA_ALT contexts in the PK layer is now optional. Since is is
1547 enabled in the default configuration, this is only noticeable if using a
1548 custom config.h
1549 * Default DHM parameters server-side upgraded from 1024 to 2048 bits.
1550 * A minimum RSA key size of 2048 bits is now enforced during ceritificate
1551 chain verification.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard606df8c2015-03-27 17:13:17 +01001552 * Negotiation of truncated HMAC is now disabled by default on server too.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardaff37e52015-05-11 18:11:57 +02001553 * The following functions are now case-sensitive:

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02001561 * The minimum MSVC version required is now 2010 (better C99 support).
1562 * The NET layer now unconditionnaly relies on getaddrinfo() and select().
1563 * Compiler is required to support C99 types such as long long and uint32_t.
1564

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardabc729e2015-07-01 01:28:24 +02001569 mbedtls_ssl_conf_transport()
1570 mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1b511f92015-05-06 15:54:23 +01001571 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0a4fb092015-05-07 12:50:31 +01001572 * DTLS no longer hard-depends on TIMING_C, but uses a callback interface
1573 instead, see mbedtls_ssl_set_timer_cb(), with the Timing module providing
1574 an example implementation, see mbedtls_timing_delay_context and
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88d37852015-06-17 14:26:49 +02001575 mbedtls_timing_set/get_delay().
1576 * With UDP sockets, it is no longer necessary to call net_bind() again
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0a4fb092015-05-07 12:50:31 +01001577 after a successful net_accept().

1579Changes
1580 * mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random() and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_random() are now
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9f982512015-04-17 16:55:53 +02001581 thread-safe if MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6efa6f2015-04-20 11:01:48 +01001582 * Reduced ROM fooprint of SHA-256 and added an option to reduce it even
1583 more (at the expense of performance) MBEDTLS_SHA256_SMALLER.
