5API changes
6 * Remove HAVEGE module.
7 The design of HAVEGE makes it unsuitable for microcontrollers. Platforms
8 with a more complex CPU usually have an operating system interface that
9 provides better randomness. Instead of HAVEGE, declare OS or hardware RNG
10 interfaces with mbedtls_entropy_add_source() and/or use an entropy seed
11 file created securely during device provisioning. See
12 https://tls.mbed.org/kb/how-to/add-entropy-sources-to-entropy-pool for
13 more information.
14 * Add missing const attributes to API functions.
15 * Remove helpers for the transition from Mbed TLS 1.3 to Mbed TLS 2.0: the
16 header compat-1.3.h and the script rename.pl.
17 * Remove certs module from the API.
18 Transfer keys and certificates embedded in the library to the test
19 component. This contributes to minimizing library API and discourages
20 users from using unsafe keys in production.
21 * Move alt helpers and definitions.
22 Various helpers and definitions available for use in alt implementations
23 have been moved out of the include/ directory and into the library/
24 directory. The files concerned are ecp_internal.h and rsa_internal.h
Gilles Peskine6a2fb612021-05-24 22:25:04 +020025 which have also been renamed to ecp_internal_alt.h and rsa_alt_helpers.h
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +010026 respectively.
27 * Move internal headers.
28 Header files that were only meant for the library's internal use and
29 were not meant to be used in application code have been moved out of
30 the include/ directory. The headers concerned are bn_mul.h, aesni.h,
31 padlock.h, entropy_poll.h and *_internal.h.
32 * Drop support for parsing SSLv2 ClientHello
33 (MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_SUPPORT_SSLV2_CLIENT_HELLO).
34 * Drop support for SSLv3 (MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_SSL3).
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +010035 * Drop support for TLS record-level compression (MBEDTLS_ZLIB_SUPPORT).
36 * Drop support for RC4 TLS ciphersuites.
37 * Drop support for single-DES ciphersuites.
38 * Drop support for MBEDTLS_SSL_HW_RECORD_ACCEL.
39
40Requirement changes
41 * The library now uses the %zu format specifier with the printf() family of
42 functions, so requires a toolchain that supports it. This change does not
43 affect the maintained LTS branches, so when contributing changes please
44 bear this in mind and do not add them to backported code.
45
46Removals
47 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
48 compile-time option, which was off by default. Users should not trust
49 certificates signed with SHA-1 due to the known attacks against SHA-1.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard143b1e32021-05-05 09:46:01 +020050 If needed, SHA-1 certificates can still be verified by using a custom
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde7563062021-04-26 10:08:29 +020051 verification profile.
52
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +010053 * Removed deprecated things in psa/crypto_compat.h. Fixes #4284
54 * Removed deprecated functions from hashing modules. Fixes #4280.
55 * Remove PKCS#11 library wrapper. PKCS#11 has limited functionality,
56 lacks automated tests and has scarce documentation. Also, PSA Crypto
57 provides a more flexible private key management.
58 More details on PCKS#11 wrapper removal can be found in the mailing list
59 https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/000024.html
60 * Remove deprecated error codes. Fix #4283
61
62Features
63 * Add mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_sign_ext() function allowing to generate a
64 signature with a specific salt length. This function allows to validate
65 test cases provided in the NIST's CAVP test suite. Contributed by Cédric
66 Meuter in PR #3183.
67
68Bugfix
69 * Fix premature fopen() call in mbedtls_entropy_write_seed_file which may
70 lead to the seed file corruption in case if the path to the seed file is
71 equal to MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_NV_SEED_FILE. Contributed by Victor
72 Krasnoshchok in #3616.
73 * PSA functions creating a key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT rather
74 than PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE when the identifier specified for the key
75 to create is not valid, bringing them in line with version 1.0.0 of the
76 specification. Fix #4271.
77 * Add printf function attributes to mbedtls_debug_print_msg to ensure we
78 get printf format specifier warnings.
79 * PSA functions other than psa_open_key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE
80 rather than PSA_ERROR_DOES_NOT_EXIST for an invalid handle, bringing them
81 in line with version 1.0.0 of the specification. Fix #4162.
82 * Fix a bug in ECDSA that would cause it to fail when the hash is all-bits
83 zero. Fixes #1792
84 * mbedtls_mpi_read_string on "-0" produced an MPI object that was not treated
85 as equal to 0 in all cases. Fix it to produce the same object as "0".
86
87Changes
88 * Fix the setting of the read timeout in the DTLS sample programs.
89 * Add extra printf compiler warning flags to builds.
90 * Fix memsan build false positive in x509_crt.c with clang 11
91 * There is ongoing work for the next release (= Mbed TLS 3.0.0 branch to
92 be released 2021-xx-xx), including various API-breaking changes.
93

95
96API changes
97 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API output buffer size macros to bring them in line
98 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
99 * The API glue function mbedtls_ecc_group_of_psa() now takes the curve size
100 in bits rather than bytes, with an additional flag to indicate if the
101 size may have been rounded up to a whole number of bytes.
102 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API AEAD tag length macros to bring them in line
103 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
104
105Default behavior changes
106 * In mbedtls_rsa_context objects, the ver field was formerly documented
107 as always 0. It is now reserved for internal purposes and may take
108 different values.
109
110New deprecations
111 * PSA_KEY_EXPORT_MAX_SIZE, PSA_HASH_SIZE, PSA_MAC_FINAL_SIZE,
112 PSA_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE, PSA_MAX_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE and
113 PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS_MAX_PSK_LEN have been renamed, and the old names
114 deprecated.
115 * PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_DEFAULT_TAG_LENGTH and PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_TAG_LENGTH
116 have been renamed, and the old names deprecated.
117
118Features
119 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now use HMAC_DRBG instead of CTR_DRBG.
120 CTR_DRBG is used by default if it is available, but you can override
121 this choice by setting MBEDTLS_PSA_HMAC_DRBG_MD_TYPE at compile time.
122 Fix #3354.
123 * Automatic fallback to a software implementation of ECP when
124 MBEDTLS_ECP_xxx_ALT accelerator hooks are in use can now be turned off
125 through setting the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_FALLBACK.
126 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now be configured to use less static RAM by
127 tweaking the setting for the maximum amount of keys simultaneously in RAM.
128 MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT sets the maximum number of volatile keys that
129 can exist simultaneously. It has a sensible default if not overridden.
130 * Partial implementation of the PSA crypto driver interface: Mbed TLS can
131 now use an external random generator instead of the library's own
132 entropy collection and DRBG code. Enable MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG
133 and see the documentation of mbedtls_psa_external_get_random() for details.
134 * Applications using both mbedtls_xxx and psa_xxx functions (for example,
135 applications using TLS and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO) can now use the PSA
136 random generator with mbedtls_xxx functions. See the documentation of
137 mbedtls_psa_get_random() for details.
138 * In the PSA API, the policy for a MAC or AEAD algorithm can specify a
139 minimum MAC or tag length thanks to the new wildcards
140 PSA_ALG_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_MAC and
141 PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_TAG.
142
143Security
144 * Fix a security reduction in CTR_DRBG when the initial seeding obtained a
145 nonce from entropy. Applications were affected if they called
146 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len(), if they called
147 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() with a size that was 3/2 times the key
148 length, or when the entropy module uses SHA-256 and CTR_DRBG uses AES-256.
149 In such cases, a random nonce was necessary to achieve the advertised
150 security strength, but the code incorrectly used a constant instead of
151 entropy from the nonce.
152 Found by John Stroebel in #3819 and fixed in #3973.
153 * Fix a buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when calculating
154 |A| - |B| where |B| is larger than |A| and has more limbs (so the
155 function should return MBEDTLS_ERR_MPI_NEGATIVE_VALUE). Only
156 applications calling mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() directly are affected:
157 all calls inside the library were safe since this function is
158 only called with |A| >= |B|. Reported by Guido Vranken in #4042.
159 * Fix an errorneous estimation for an internal buffer in
160 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(). If MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE is set to an odd
161 value the function might fail to write a private RSA keys of the largest
162 supported size.
163 Found by Daniel Otte, reported in #4093 and fixed in #4094.
164 * Fix a stack buffer overflow with mbedtls_net_poll() and
165 mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() when given a file descriptor that is
166 beyond FD_SETSIZE. Reported by FigBug in #4169.
167 * Guard against strong local side channel attack against base64 tables by
168 making access aceess to them use constant flow code.
169
170Bugfix
171 * Fix use-after-scope error in programs/ssl/ssl_client2.c and ssl_server2.c
172 * Fix memory leak that occured when calling psa_close_key() on a
173 wrapped key with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C defined.
174 * Fix an incorrect error code if an RSA private operation glitched.
175 * Fix a memory leak in an error case in psa_generate_derived_key_internal().
176 * Fix a resource leak in CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C
177 is enabled, on platforms where initializing a mutex allocates resources.
178 This was a regression introduced in the previous release. Reported in
179 #4017, #4045 and #4071.
180 * Ensure that calling mbedtls_rsa_free() or mbedtls_entropy_free()
181 twice is safe. This happens for RSA when some Mbed TLS library functions
182 fail. Such a double-free was not safe when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C was
183 enabled on platforms where freeing a mutex twice is not safe.
184 * Fix a resource leak in a bad-arguments case of mbedtls_rsa_gen_key()
185 when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled on platforms where initializing
186 a mutex allocates resources.
187 * Fixes a bug where, if the library was configured to include support for
188 both the old SE interface and the new PSA driver interface, external keys were
189 not loaded from storage. This was fixed by #3996.
190 * This change makes 'mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_basic_constraints'
191 consistent with RFC 5280 4.2.1.9 which says: "Conforming CAs MUST
192 include this extension in all CA certificates that contain public keys
193 used to validate digital signatures on certificates and MUST mark the
194 extension as critical in such certificates." Previous to this change,
195 the extension was always marked as non-critical. This was fixed by
196 #3698.
197
198Changes
199 * A new library C file psa_crypto_client.c has been created to contain
200 the PSA code needed by a PSA crypto client when the PSA crypto
201 implementation is not included into the library.
202 * On recent enough versions of FreeBSD and DragonFlyBSD, the entropy module
203 now uses the getrandom syscall instead of reading from /dev/urandom.

Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000206
207API changes
208 * The numerical values of the PSA Crypto API macros have been updated to
209 conform to version 1.0.0 of the specification.
210 * PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER replaces PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4.
211 The underlying stream cipher is determined by the key type
212 (PSA_KEY_TYPE_CHACHA20 or PSA_KEY_TYPE_ARC4).
213 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
214 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() no longer accept NIST_KW contexts,
215 as they have no way to check if the output buffer is large enough.
216 Please use mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
217 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext() instead. Credit to OSS-Fuzz and
218 Cryptofuzz. Fixes #3665.
219
220Requirement changes
Janos Follathe9216262020-12-10 11:03:01 +0000221 * Update the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.12. This silences a
222 warning on CMake 3.19.0. #3801
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000223
224New deprecations
Bence Szépkútife9a4252021-02-08 18:13:02 +0100225 * PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4 have been deprecated.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000226 Use PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER instead.
227 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
228 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() are deprecated in favour of the new
229 functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
230 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext(). Please note that with AEAD ciphers,
231 these new functions always append the tag to the ciphertext, and include
232 the tag in the ciphertext length.
233
234Features
Janos Follathd6ce1162020-12-09 16:32:01 +0000235 * Partial implementation of the new PSA Crypto accelerator APIs. (Symmetric
236 ciphers, asymmetric signing/verification and key generation, validate_key
237 entry point, and export_public_key interface.)
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000238 * Add support for ECB to the PSA cipher API.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000239 * In PSA, allow using a key declared with a base key agreement algorithm
240 in combined key agreement and derivation operations, as long as the key
241 agreement algorithm in use matches the algorithm the key was declared with.
242 This is currently non-standard behaviour, but expected to make it into a
243 future revision of the PSA Crypto standard.
244 * Add MBEDTLS_TARGET_PREFIX CMake variable, which is prefixed to the mbedtls,
245 mbedcrypto, mbedx509 and apidoc CMake target names. This can be used by
246 external CMake projects that include this one to avoid CMake target name
247 clashes. The default value of this variable is "", so default target names
248 are unchanged.
249 * Add support for DTLS-SRTP as defined in RFC 5764. Contributed by Johan
250 Pascal, improved by Ron Eldor.
251 * In the PSA API, it is no longer necessary to open persistent keys:
252 operations now accept the key identifier. The type psa_key_handle_t is now
253 identical to psa_key_id_t instead of being platform-defined. This bridges
254 the last major gap to compliance with the PSA Cryptography specification
255 version 1.0.0. Opening persistent keys is still supported for backward
256 compatibility, but will be deprecated and later removed in future
257 releases.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000258 * PSA_AEAD_NONCE_LENGTH, PSA_AEAD_NONCE_MAX_SIZE, PSA_CIPHER_IV_LENGTH and
259 PSA_CIPHER_IV_MAX_SIZE macros have been added as defined in version
260 1.0.0 of the PSA Crypto API specification.
261
262Security
263 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
264 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() would write past the minimum documented
265 size of the output buffer when used with NIST_KW. As a result, code using
266 those functions as documented with NIST_KW could have a buffer overwrite
267 of up to 15 bytes, with consequences ranging up to arbitrary code
268 execution depending on the location of the output buffer.
269 * Limit the size of calculations performed by mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod to
270 MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE to prevent a potential denial of service when
271 generating Diffie-Hellman key pairs. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
272 * A failure of the random generator was ignored in mbedtls_mpi_fill_random(),
273 which is how most uses of randomization in asymmetric cryptography
274 (including key generation, intermediate value randomization and blinding)
275 are implemented. This could cause failures or the silent use of non-random
276 values. A random generator can fail if it needs reseeding and cannot not
277 obtain entropy, or due to an internal failure (which, for Mbed TLS's own
278 CTR_DRBG or HMAC_DRBG, can only happen due to a misconfiguration).
279 * Fix a compliance issue whereby we were not checking the tag on the
280 algorithm parameters (only the size) when comparing the signature in the
281 description part of the cert to the real signature. This meant that a
282 NULL algorithm parameters entry would look identical to an array of REAL
283 (size zero) to the library and thus the certificate would be considered
284 valid. However, if the parameters do not match in *any* way then the
285 certificate should be considered invalid, and indeed OpenSSL marks these
286 certs as invalid when mbedtls did not.
287 Many thanks to guidovranken who found this issue via differential fuzzing
288 and reported it in #3629.
289 * Zeroising of local buffers and variables which are used for calculations
290 in mbedtls_pkcs5_pbkdf2_hmac(), mbedtls_internal_sha*_process(),
291 mbedtls_internal_md*_process() and mbedtls_internal_ripemd160_process()
292 functions to erase sensitive data from memory. Reported by
293 Johan Malmgren and Johan Uppman Bruce from Sectra.
294
295Bugfix
Janos Follath76027f62020-12-09 16:28:35 +0000296 * Fix an invalid (but nonzero) return code from mbedtls_pk_parse_subpubkey()
297 when the input has trailing garbage. Fixes #2512.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +0000298 * Fix build failure in configurations where MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is
299 enabled but ECDSA is disabled. Contributed by jdurkop. Fixes #3294.
300 * Include the psa_constant_names generated source code in the source tree
301 instead of generating it at build time. Fixes #3524.
302 * Fix rsa_prepare_blinding() to retry when the blinding value is not
303 invertible (mod N), instead of returning MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_RNG_FAILED. This
304 addresses a regression but is rare in practice (approx. 1 in 2/sqrt(N)).
305 Found by Synopsys Coverity, fix contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
306 Fixes #3647.
307 * Use socklen_t on Android and other POSIX-compliant system
308 * Fix the build when the macro _GNU_SOURCE is defined to a non-empty value.
309 Fix #3432.
310 * Consistently return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT on invalid cipher input
311 sizes (instead of PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE in some cases) to make the
312 psa_cipher_* functions compliant with the PSA Crypto API specification.
313 * mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() now lists Curve25519 and Curve448 under the names
314 "x25519" and "x448". These curves support ECDH but not ECDSA. If you need
315 only the curves that support ECDSA, filter the list with
316 mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do().
317 * Fix psa_generate_key() returning an error when asked to generate
318 an ECC key pair on Curve25519 or secp244k1.
319 * Fix psa_key_derivation_output_key() to allow the output of a combined key
320 agreement and subsequent key derivation operation to be used as a key
321 inside of the PSA Crypto core.
322 * Fix handling of EOF against 0xff bytes and on platforms with unsigned
323 chars. Fixes a build failure on platforms where char is unsigned. Fixes
324 #3794.
325 * Fix an off-by-one error in the additional data length check for
326 CCM, which allowed encryption with a non-standard length field.
327 Fixes #3719.
328 * Correct the default IV size for mbedtls_cipher_info_t structures using
329 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB to 0, since ECB mode ciphers don't use IVs.
330 * Make arc4random_buf available on NetBSD and OpenBSD when _POSIX_C_SOURCE is
331 defined. Fix contributed in #3571.
332 * Fix conditions for including string.h in error.c. Fixes #3866.
333 * psa_set_key_id() now also sets the lifetime to persistent for keys located
334 in a secure element.
335 * Attempting to create a volatile key with a non-zero key identifier now
336 fails. Previously the key identifier was just ignored when creating a
337 volatile key.
338 * Attempting to create or register a key with a key identifier in the vendor
339 range now fails.
340 * Fix build failures on GCC 11. Fixes #3782.
341 * Add missing arguments of debug message in mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf.
342 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when the result was negative
343 (an error condition) and the second operand was aliased to the result.
344 * Fix a case in elliptic curve arithmetic where an out-of-memory condition
345 could go undetected, resulting in an incorrect result.
346 * In CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG, don't reset the reseed interval in seed().
347 Fixes #2927.
348 * In PEM writing functions, fill the trailing part of the buffer with null
349 bytes. This guarantees that the corresponding parsing function can read
350 the buffer back, which was the case for mbedtls_x509write_{crt,csr}_pem
351 until this property was inadvertently broken in Mbed TLS 2.19.0.
352 Fixes #3682.
353 * Fix a build failure that occurred with the MBEDTLS_AES_SETKEY_DEC_ALT
354 option on. In this configuration key management methods that are required
355 for MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_XTS were excluded from the build and made it fail.
356 Fixes #3818. Reported by John Stroebel.
357
358Changes
359 * Reduce stack usage significantly during sliding window exponentiation.
360 Reported in #3591 and fix contributed in #3592 by Daniel Otte.
361 * The PSA persistent storage format is updated to always store the key bits
362 attribute. No automatic upgrade path is provided. Previously stored keys
363 must be erased, or manually upgraded based on the key storage format
364 specification (docs/architecture/mbed-crypto-storage-specification.md).
365 Fixes #3740.
366 * Remove the zeroization of a pointer variable in AES rounds. It was valid
367 but spurious and misleading since it looked like a mistaken attempt to
368 zeroize the pointed-to buffer. Reported by Antonio de la Piedra, CEA
369 Leti, France.

388Features
389 * The new function mbedtls_ecp_write_key() exports private ECC keys back to
390 a byte buffer. It is the inverse of the existing mbedtls_ecp_read_key().
391 * Support building on e2k (Elbrus) architecture: correctly enable
392 -Wformat-signedness, and fix the code that causes signed-one-bit-field
393 and sign-compare warnings. Contributed by makise-homura (Igor Molchanov)
394 <akemi_homura@kurisa.ch>.
395
396Security
397 * Fix a vulnerability in the verification of X.509 certificates when
398 matching the expected common name (the cn argument of
399 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()) with the actual certificate name: when the
400 subjecAltName extension is present, the expected name was compared to any
401 name in that extension regardless of its type. This means that an
402 attacker could for example impersonate a 4-bytes or 16-byte domain by
403 getting a certificate for the corresponding IPv4 or IPv6 (this would
404 require the attacker to control that IP address, though). Similar attacks
405 using other subjectAltName name types might be possible. Found and
406 reported by kFYatek in #3498.
407 * When checking X.509 CRLs, a certificate was only considered as revoked if
408 its revocationDate was in the past according to the local clock if
409 available. In particular, on builds without MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE,
410 certificates were never considered as revoked. On builds with
411 MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE, an attacker able to control the local clock (for
412 example, an untrusted OS attacking a secure enclave) could prevent
413 revocation of certificates via CRLs. Fixed by no longer checking the
414 revocationDate field, in accordance with RFC 5280. Reported by
415 yuemonangong in #3340. Reported independently and fixed by
416 Raoul Strackx and Jethro Beekman in #3433.
417 * In (D)TLS record decryption, when using a CBC ciphersuites without the
418 Encrypt-then-Mac extension, use constant code flow memory access patterns
419 to extract and check the MAC. This is an improvement to the existing
420 countermeasure against Lucky 13 attacks. The previous countermeasure was
421 effective against network-based attackers, but less so against local
422 attackers. The new countermeasure defends against local attackers, even
423 if they have access to fine-grained measurements. In particular, this
424 fixes a local Lucky 13 cache attack found and reported by Tuba Yavuz,
425 Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihan) Bai, Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler
426 (University of Florida) and Dave Tian (Purdue University).
427 * Fix side channel in RSA private key operations and static (finite-field)
428 Diffie-Hellman. An adversary with precise enough timing and memory access
429 information (typically an untrusted operating system attacking a secure
430 enclave) could bypass an existing counter-measure (base blinding) and
431 potentially fully recover the private key.
432 * Fix a 1-byte buffer overread in mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_der().
433 Credit to OSS-Fuzz for detecting the problem and to Philippe Antoine
434 for pinpointing the problematic code.
435 * Zeroising of plaintext buffers in mbedtls_ssl_read() to erase unused
436 application data from memory. Reported in #689 by
437 Johan Uppman Bruce of Sectra.
438
439Bugfix

441 permission.
Janos Follath6012f0e2020-08-26 15:32:10 +0100442 * Use local labels in mbedtls_padlock_has_support() to fix an invalid symbol
443 redefinition if the function is inlined.
Janos Follathc18a7b82020-08-26 14:49:16 +0100444 Reported in #3451 and fix contributed in #3452 by okhowang.
445 * Fix the endianness of Curve25519 keys imported/exported through the PSA
446 APIs. psa_import_key and psa_export_key will now correctly expect/output
447 Montgomery keys in little-endian as defined by RFC7748. Contributed by
448 Steven Cooreman in #3425.
449 * Fix build errors when the only enabled elliptic curves are Montgomery
450 curves. Raised by signpainter in #941 and by Taiki-San in #1412. This
451 also fixes missing declarations reported by Steven Cooreman in #1147.
452 * Fix self-test failure when the only enabled short Weierstrass elliptic
453 curve is secp192k1. Fixes #2017.
454 * PSA key import will now correctly import a Curve25519/Curve448 public key
455 instead of erroring out. Contributed by Steven Cooreman in #3492.
456 * Use arc4random_buf on NetBSD instead of rand implementation with cyclical
457 lower bits. Fix contributed in #3540.
458 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_md_setup() when using HMAC under low memory
459 conditions. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #3486.
460 * Fix bug in redirection of unit test outputs on platforms where stdout is
461 defined as a macro. First reported in #2311 and fix contributed in #3528.
462
463Changes
464 * Only pass -Wformat-signedness to versions of GCC that support it. Reported
465 in #3478 and fix contributed in #3479 by okhowang.
466 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_x509write_csr_der() which
467 previously could lead to stack overflow on constrained devices.
468 Contributed by Doru Gucea and Simon Leet in #3464.
469 * Undefine the ASSERT macro before defining it locally, in case it is defined
470 in a platform header. Contributed by Abdelatif Guettouche in #3557.
471 * Update copyright notices to use Linux Foundation guidance. As a result,
472 the copyright of contributors other than Arm is now acknowledged, and the
473 years of publishing are no longer tracked in the source files. This also
474 eliminates the need for the lines declaring the files to be part of
475 MbedTLS. Fixes #3457.
476 * Add the command line parameter key_pwd to the ssl_client2 and ssl_server2
477 example applications which allows to provide a password for the key file
478 specified through the existing key_file argument. This allows the use of
479 these applications with password-protected key files. Analogously but for
480 ssl_server2 only, add the command line parameter key_pwd2 which allows to
481 set a password for the key file provided through the existing key_file2
482 argument.

486Default behavior changes
487 * In the experimental PSA secure element interface, change the encoding of
488 key lifetimes to encode a persistence level and the location. Although C
489 prototypes do not effectively change, code calling
490 psa_register_se_driver() must be modified to pass the driver's location
491 instead of the keys' lifetime. If the library is upgraded on an existing
492 device, keys created with the old lifetime value will not be readable or
493 removable through Mbed TLS after the upgrade.
494
495Features
496 * New functions in the error module return constant strings for
497 high- and low-level error codes, complementing mbedtls_strerror()
498 which constructs a string for any error code, including compound
499 ones, but requires a writable buffer. Contributed by Gaurav Aggarwal
500 in #3176.
501 * The new utility programs/ssl/ssl_context_info prints a human-readable
502 dump of an SSL context saved with mbedtls_ssl_context_save().
503 * Add support for midipix, a POSIX layer for Microsoft Windows.
504 * Add new mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() routine which allows
505 parsing unsupported certificate extensions via user provided callback.
506 Contributed by Nicola Di Lieto <nicola.dilieto@gmail.com> in #3243 as
507 a solution to #3241.
508 * Pass the "certificate policies" extension to the callback supplied to
509 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() if it contains unsupported
510 policies (#3419).
511 * Added support to entropy_poll for the kern.arandom syscall supported on
512 some BSD systems. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3423.
513 * Add support for Windows 2000 in net_sockets. Contributed by opatomic. #3239

516 * Fix a side channel vulnerability in modular exponentiation that could
517 reveal an RSA private key used in a secure enclave. Noticed by Sangho Lee,
518 Ming-Wei Shih, Prasun Gera, Taesoo Kim and Hyesoon Kim (Georgia Institute
519 of Technology); and Marcus Peinado (Microsoft Research). Reported by Raoul
520 Strackx (Fortanix) in #3394.
521 * Fix side channel in mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv() and
522 mbedtls_pk_parse_key() / mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile() (when loading a
523 private key that didn't include the uncompressed public key), as well as
524 mbedtls_ecp_mul() / mbedtls_ecp_mul_restartable() when called with a NULL
525 f_rng argument. An attacker with access to precise enough timing and
526 memory access information (typically an untrusted operating system
527 attacking a secure enclave) could fully recover the ECC private key.
528 Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
529 * Fix issue in Lucky 13 counter-measure that could make it ineffective when
530 hardware accelerators were used (using one of the MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_ALT
531 macros). This would cause the original Lucky 13 attack to be possible in
532 those configurations, allowing an active network attacker to recover
533 plaintext after repeated timing measurements under some conditions.
534 Reported and fix suggested by Luc Perneel in #3246.
535
536Bugfix
537 * Fix the Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration for mbedtls itself.
538 Completes a previous fix in Mbed TLS 2.19 that only fixed the build for
539 the example programs. Reported in #1430 and fix contributed by irwir.
540 * Fix undefined behavior in X.509 certificate parsing if the
541 pathLenConstraint basic constraint value is equal to INT_MAX.
542 The actual effect with almost every compiler is the intended
543 behavior, so this is unlikely to be exploitable anywhere. #3192
544 * Fix issue with a detected HW accelerated record error not being exposed
545 due to shadowed variable. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3310.
546 * Avoid NULL pointer dereferencing if mbedtls_ssl_free() is called with a
547 NULL pointer argument. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3312.
548 * Fix potential linker errors on dual world platforms by inlining
549 mbedtls_gcc_group_to_psa(). This allows the pk.c module to link separately
550 from psa_crypto.c. Fixes #3300.
551 * Remove dead code in X.509 certificate parsing. Contributed by irwir in
552 #2855.
553 * Include asn1.h in error.c. Fixes #3328 reported by David Hu.
554 * Fix potential memory leaks in ecp_randomize_jac() and ecp_randomize_mxz()
555 when PRNG function fails. Contributed by Jonas Lejeune in #3318.
556 * Remove unused macros from MSVC projects. Reported in #3297 and fix
557 submitted in #3333 by irwir.
558 * Add additional bounds checks in ssl_write_client_hello() preventing
559 output buffer overflow if the configuration declared a buffer that was
560 too small.
561 * Set _POSIX_C_SOURCE to at least 200112L in C99 code. Reported in #3420 and
562 fix submitted in #3421 by Nia Alarie.
563 * Fix building library/net_sockets.c and the ssl_mail_client program on
564 NetBSD. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3422.
565 * Fix false positive uninitialised variable reported by cpp-check.
566 Contributed by Sander Visser in #3311.
567 * Update iv and len context pointers manually when reallocating buffers
568 using the MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH feature. This caused issues
569 when receiving a connection with CID, when these fields were shifted
570 in ssl_parse_record_header().

573 * Fix warnings about signedness issues in format strings. The build is now
574 clean of -Wformat-signedness warnings. Contributed by Kenneth Soerensen
575 in #3153.
576 * Fix minor performance issue in operations on Curve25519 caused by using a
577 suboptimal modular reduction in one place. Found and fix contributed by
578 Aurelien Jarno in #3209.
579 * Combine identical cases in switch statements in md.c. Contributed
580 by irwir in #3208.
581 * Simplify a bounds check in ssl_write_certificate_request(). Contributed
582 by irwir in #3150.
583 * Unify the example programs termination to call mbedtls_exit() instead of
584 using a return command. This has been done to enable customization of the
585 behavior in bare metal environments.
586 * Fix mbedtls_x509_dn_gets to escape non-ASCII characters as "?".
587 Contributed by Koh M. Nakagawa in #3326.
588 * Use FindPython3 when cmake version >= 3.15.0
589 * Abort the ClientHello writing function as soon as some extension doesn't
590 fit into the record buffer. Previously, such extensions were silently
591 dropped. As a consequence, the TLS handshake now fails when the output
592 buffer is not large enough to hold the ClientHello.
593 * The unit tests now rely on header files in tests/include/test and source
594 files in tests/src. When building with make or cmake, the files in
595 tests/src are compiled and the resulting object linked into each test
596 executable.
597 * The ECP module, enabled by `MBEDTLS_ECP_C`, now depends on
598 `MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_C` or `MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_C` for some side-channel
599 coutermeasures. If side channels are not a concern, this dependency can
600 be avoided by enabling the new option `MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG`.
601 * Align MSVC error flag with GCC and Clang. Contributed by Carlos Gomes
602 Martinho. #3147
603 * Remove superfluous assignment in mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate(). Reported

619 (RFC 6347 section 4.2.8): an attacker able to send forged UDP packets to

Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +0100716 default configuration, on a platform with a single entropy source, the
717 entropy module formerly only grabbed 32 bytes, which is good enough for
718 security if the source is genuinely strong, but less than the expected 64
719 bytes (size of the entropy accumulator).
Gilles Peskinee3b285d2020-01-27 14:01:42 +0100720 * Zeroize local variables in mbedtls_internal_aes_encrypt() and
721 mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt() before exiting the function. The value of
722 these variables can be used to recover the last round key. To follow best
723 practice and to limit the impact of buffer overread vulnerabilities (like
724 Heartbleed) we need to zeroize them before exiting the function.
725 Issue reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
726 Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
727 Dave Tian (Purdue University).
728 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA. Our bignum implementation is not
729 constant time/constant trace, so side channel attacks can retrieve the
730 blinded value, factor it (as it is smaller than RSA keys and not guaranteed
731 to have only large prime factors), and then, by brute force, recover the
732 key. Reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
733 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA key generation. Obtaining precise
734 timings on the comparison in the key generation enabled the attacker to
735 learn leading bits of the ephemeral key used during ECDSA signatures and to
736 recover the private key. Reported by Jeremy Dubeuf.
737 * Catch failure of AES functions in mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random(). Uncaught
738 failures could happen with alternative implementations of AES. Bug
739 reported and fix proposed by Johan Uppman Bruce and Christoffer Lauri,
740 Sectra.

744 or from a buffer regardless of the step type.
745 * The CTR_DRBG module can grab a nonce from the entropy source during the

747 to achieve the security strength defined by NIST SP 800-90A. You can

781 * Variables containing error codes are now initialized to an error code
782 rather than success, so that coding mistakes or memory corruption tends to
783 cause functions to return this error code rather than a success. There are
784 no known instances where this changes the behavior of the library: this is

Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +0100813 * Fix a missing error detection in ECJPAKE. This could have caused a
814 predictable shared secret if a hardware accelerator failed and the other
815 side of the key exchange had a similar bug.
Gilles Peskine52157832018-08-11 00:51:04 +0200816 * When writing a private EC key, use a constant size for the private
817 value, as specified in RFC 5915. Previously, the value was written
818 as an ASN.1 INTEGER, which caused the size of the key to leak
819 about 1 bit of information on average and could cause the value to be
820 1 byte too large for the output buffer.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +0000821 * The deterministic ECDSA calculation reused the scheme's HMAC-DRBG to
822 implement blinding. Because of this for the same key and message the same
823 blinding value was generated. This reduced the effectiveness of the
824 countermeasure and leaked information about the private key through side
825 channels. Reported by Jack Lloyd.

Jaeden Amero4e0db562019-08-27 11:18:28 +0100968API Changes
969 * Extend the MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS to export the handshake randbytes,
970 and the used tls-prf.
971 * Add public API for tls-prf function, according to requested enum.
972
Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +0000973Bugfix
974 * Fix private key DER output in the key_app_writer example. File contents
975 were shifted by one byte, creating an invalid ASN.1 tag. Fixed by
976 Christian Walther in #2239.
977 * Fix potential memory leak in X.509 self test. Found and fixed by
978 Junhwan Park, #2106.
979 * Reduce stack usage of hkdf tests. Fixes #2195.
980 * Fix 1-byte buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_write_string() when
981 used with negative inputs. Found by Guido Vranken in #2404. Credit to
982 OSS-Fuzz.
983 * Fix bugs in the AEAD test suite which would be exposed by ciphers which
984 either used both encrypt and decrypt key schedules, or which perform padding.
985 GCM and CCM were not affected. Fixed by Jack Lloyd.
986 * Fix incorrect default port number in ssl_mail_client example's usage.
987 Found and fixed by irwir. #2337
988 * Add psa_util.h to test/cpp_dummy_build to fix build_default_make_gcc_and_cxx.
989 Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin). #2579
990 * Add missing parentheses around parameters in the definition of the
Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +0000991 public macro MBEDTLS_X509_ID_FLAG. This could lead to invalid evaluation
992 in case operators binding less strongly than subtraction were used
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500993 for the parameter.
994 * Add a check for MBEDTLS_X509_CRL_PARSE_C in ssl_server2, guarding the crl
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +0000995 sni entry parameter. Reported by inestlerode in #560.
996 * Set the next sequence of the subject_alt_name to NULL when deleting
997 sequence on failure. Found and fix suggested by Philippe Antoine.
998 Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
999
Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +00001000Changes
1001 * Server's RSA certificate in certs.c was SHA-1 signed. In the default
1002 mbedTLS configuration only SHA-2 signed certificates are accepted.
1003 This certificate is used in the demo server programs, which lead the
1004 client programs to fail at the peer's certificate verification
1005 due to an unacceptable hash signature. The certificate has been
1006 updated to one that is SHA-256 signed. Fix contributed by
1007 Illya Gerasymchuk.
1008 * Return from various debugging routines immediately if the
1009 provided SSL context is unset.
1010 * Remove dead code from bignum.c in the default configuration.
1011 Found by Coverity, reported and fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin). Fixes #2309.
1012 * Add test for minimal value of MBEDTLS_MPI_WINDOW_SIZE to all.sh.
1013 Contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
1014 * Change wording in the `mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_frag_len()`'s documentation to
1015 improve clarity. Fixes #2258.

Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +00001018
1019Features
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05001020 * Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`
1021 which allows copy-less parsing of DER encoded X.509 CRTs,
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +00001022 at the cost of additional lifetime constraints on the input
1023 buffer, but at the benefit of reduced RAM consumption.
1024 * Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() to write ASN.1
1025 named bitstring in DER as required by RFC 5280 Appendix B.
1026 * Add MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES to allow removing 3DES ciphersuites
1027 from the default list (enabled by default). See
1028 https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf.
1029
1030API Changes
1031 * Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`.
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05001032 See the Features section for more information.
1033 * Allow to opt in to the removal the API mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
1034 for the benefit of saving RAM, by disabling the new compile-time
1035 option MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE (enabled by default for
1036 API stability). Disabling this option makes mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
1037 always return NULL, and removes the peer_cert field from the
1038 mbedtls_ssl_session structure which otherwise stores the peer's
Gilles Peskineccf8ba02018-11-07 22:39:16 +01001039 certificate.
1040
1041Security
1042 * Make mbedtls_ecdh_get_params return an error if the second key
1043 belongs to a different group from the first. Before, if an application
1044 passed keys that belonged to different group, the first key's data was
1045 interpreted according to the second group, which could lead to either
1046 an error or a meaningless output from mbedtls_ecdh_get_params. In the
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05001047 latter case, this could expose at most 5 bits of the private key.
1048
1049Bugfix
1050 * Fix a compilation issue with mbedtls_ecp_restart_ctx not being defined
1051 when MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT is defined. Reported by jwhui. Fixes #2242.
1052 * Run the AD too long test only if MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT is not defined.
1053 Raised as a comment in #1996.
1054 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() which could
1055 previously lead to a stack overflow on constrained targets.
1056 * Add `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` for the mbedtls_self_test functions
1057 in the header files, which missed the precompilation check. #971
1058 * Fix returning the value 1 when mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey failed.
1059 * Remove a duplicate #include in a sample program. Fixed by Masashi Honma #2326.
Hanno Becker1b6d2b22019-01-10 09:22:16 +00001060 * Remove the mbedtls namespacing from the header file, to fix a "file not found"
1061 build error. Fixed by Haijun Gu #2319.
Ron Eldor8a6917d2018-11-27 10:33:38 +02001062 * Fix signed-to-unsigned integer conversion warning
1063 in X.509 module. Fixes #2212.
Peter Kolbus995d5c12019-02-03 08:41:41 -06001064 * Reduce stack usage of `mpi_write_hlp()` by eliminating recursion.
1065 Fixes #2190.
Andres Amaya Garciad588ff72018-09-26 10:59:20 +01001066 * Fix false failure in all.sh when backup files exist in include/mbedtls
1067 (e.g. config.h.bak). Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin) #2407.
1068 * Ensure that unused bits are zero when writing ASN.1 bitstrings when using
1069 mbedtls_asn1_write_bitstring().
1070 * Fix issue when writing the named bitstrings in KeyUsage and NsCertType
1071 extensions in CSRs and CRTs that caused these bitstrings to not be encoded
Simon Butcher41f95192018-12-01 18:42:47 +00001072 correctly as trailing zeroes were not accounted for as unused bits in the
1073 leading content octet. Fixes #1610.

1075Changes
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05001076 * Reduce RAM consumption during session renegotiation by not storing
1077 the peer CRT chain and session ticket twice.
1078 * Include configuration file in all header files that use configuration,
1079 instead of relying on other header files that they include.
1080 Inserted as an enhancement for #1371
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05001081 * Add support for alternative CSR headers, as used by Microsoft and defined
1082 in RFC 7468. Found by Michael Ernst. Fixes #767.
1083 * Correct many misspellings. Fixed by MisterDA #2371.
1084 * Provide an abstraction of vsnprintf to allow alternative implementations
1085 for platforms that don't provide it. Based on contributions by Joris Aerts
1086 and Nathaniel Wesley Filardo.
1087 * Fix clobber list in MIPS assembly for large integer multiplication.
1088 Previously, this could lead to functionally incorrect assembly being
1089 produced by some optimizing compilers, showing up as failures in
k-stachowiakc5a4a132019-02-05 09:11:58 +01001090 e.g. RSA or ECC signature operations. Reported in #1722, fix suggested
1091 by Aurelien Jarno and submitted by Jeffrey Martin.
Andres Amaya Garciaaabe52f2018-10-16 22:18:53 +01001092 * Reduce the complexity of the timing tests. They were assuming more than the
1093 underlying OS actually guarantees.
k-stachowiakcddbd012019-02-19 12:40:34 +01001094 * Fix configuration queries in ssl-opt.h. #2030
1095 * Ensure that ssl-opt.h can be run in OS X. #2029
Andres Amaya Garciaf8dffb32019-02-19 20:14:00 +00001096 * Re-enable certain interoperability tests in ssl-opt.sh which had previously
1097 been disabled for lack of a sufficiently recent version of GnuTLS on the CI.
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05001098 * Ciphersuites based on 3DES now have the lowest priority by default when
1099 they are enabled.
1100

1102
1103Features
1104 * Add a new config.h option of MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS that enables validation
1105 of parameters in the API. This allows detection of obvious misuses of the
1106 API, such as passing NULL pointers. The API of existing functions hasn't
1107 changed, but requirements on parameters have been made more explicit in
1108 the documentation. See the corresponding API documentation for each
1109 function to see for which parameter values it is defined. This feature is
1110 disabled by default. See its API documentation in config.h for additional
1111 steps you have to take when enabling it.
1112
1113API Changes
1114 * The following functions in the random generator modules have been
1115 deprecated and replaced as shown below. The new functions change
1116 the return type from void to int to allow returning error codes when
1117 using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT for the underlying AES or message digest
1118 primitive. Fixes #1798.
1119 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret()
1120 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret()
1121 * Extend ECDH interface to enable alternative implementations.
1122 * Deprecate error codes of the form MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH for
1123 ARIA, CAMELLIA and Blowfish. These error codes will be replaced by
1124 the more generic per-module error codes MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
1125 * Additional parameter validation checks have been added for the following
1126 modules - AES, ARIA, Blowfish, CAMELLIA, CCM, GCM, DHM, ECP, ECDSA, ECDH,
1127 ECJPAKE, SHA, Chacha20 and Poly1305, cipher, pk, RSA, and MPI.
1128 Where modules have had parameter validation added, existing parameter
1129 checks may have changed. Some modules, such as Chacha20 had existing
1130 parameter validation whereas other modules had little. This has now been
1131 changed so that the same level of validation is present in all modules, and
1132 that it is now optional with the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS flag which by default
1133 is off. That means that checks which were previously present by default
1134 will no longer be.
1135
1136New deprecations
1137 * Deprecate mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update
1138 in favor of functions that can return an error code.
1139
1140Bugfix
1141 * Fix for Clang, which was reporting a warning for the bignum.c inline
1142 assembly for AMD64 targets creating string literals greater than those
1143 permitted by the ISO C99 standard. Found by Aaron Jones. Fixes #482.
1144 * Fix runtime error in `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` when run
1145 through qemu user emulation. Reported and fix suggested by randombit
1146 in #1212. Fixes #1212.
1147 * Fix an unsafe bounds check when restoring an SSL session from a ticket.
1148 This could lead to a buffer overflow, but only in case ticket authentication
1149 was broken. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #659.
1150 * Add explicit integer to enumeration type casts to example program
1151 programs/pkey/gen_key which previously led to compilation failure
1152 on some toolchains. Reported by phoenixmcallister. Fixes #2170.
1153 * Fix double initialization of ECC hardware that made some accelerators
1154 hang.
1155 * Clarify documentation of mbedtls_ssl_set_own_cert() regarding the absence
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05001156 of check for certificate/key matching. Reported by Attila Molnar, #507.

1178Security
1179 * Fix timing variations and memory access variations in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
1180 decryption that could lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle
1181 attack. In TLS, this affects servers that accept ciphersuites based on
1182 RSA decryption (i.e. ciphersuites whose name contains RSA but not
1183 (EC)DH(E)). Discovered by Eyal Ronen (Weizmann Institute), Robert Gillham
1184 (University of Adelaide), Daniel Genkin (University of Michigan),
1185 Adi Shamir (Weizmann Institute), David Wong (NCC Group), and Yuval Yarom
1186 (University of Adelaide, Data61). The attack is described in more detail
1187 in the paper available here: http://cat.eyalro.net/cat.pdf CVE-2018-19608
1188 * In mbedtls_mpi_write_binary(), don't leak the exact size of the number
1189 via branching and memory access patterns. An attacker who could submit
1190 a plaintext for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption but only observe the timing
1191 of the decryption and not its result could nonetheless decrypt RSA
1192 plaintexts and forge RSA signatures. Other asymmetric algorithms may
1193 have been similarly vulnerable. Reported by Eyal Ronen, Robert Gillham,
1194 Daniel Genkin, Adi Shamir, David Wong and Yuval Yarom.
1195 * Wipe sensitive buffers on the stack in the CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG
1196 modules.
1197
1198API Changes
1199 * The new functions mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret() and
1200 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret() are similar to mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update()
1201 and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() respectively, but the new functions
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05001202 report errors whereas the old functions return void. We recommend that
Simon Butcherc1b98922018-11-19 18:31:40 +00001203 applications use the new functions.

Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00001208 * Fix overly strict DN comparison when looking for CRLs belonging to a
1209 particular CA. This previously led to ignoring CRLs when the CRL's issuer
1210 name and the CA's subject name differed in their string encoding (e.g.,
1211 one using PrintableString and the other UTF8String) or in the choice of
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01001212 upper and lower case. Reported by Henrik Andersson of Bosch GmbH in issue
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00001213 #1784.
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01001214 * Fix a flawed bounds check in server PSK hint parsing. In case the
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00001215 incoming message buffer was placed within the first 64KiB of address
1216 space and a PSK-(EC)DHE ciphersuite was used, this allowed an attacker
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01001217 to trigger a memory access up to 64KiB beyond the incoming message buffer,
1218 potentially leading to an application crash or information disclosure.
1219 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() to use more rounds of probabilistic testing. The
1220 previous settings for the number of rounds made it practical for an
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00001221 adversary to construct non-primes that would be erroneously accepted as
1222 primes with high probability. This does not have an impact on the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01001223 security of TLS, but can matter in other contexts with numbers chosen
1224 potentially by an adversary that should be prime and can be validated.
1225 For example, the number of rounds was enough to securely generate RSA key
1226 pairs or Diffie-Hellman parameters, but was insufficient to validate
1227 Diffie-Hellman parameters properly.

Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00001231Features
1232 * Add support for temporarily suspending expensive ECC computations after
1233 some configurable amount of operations. This is intended to be used in
1234 constrained, single-threaded systems where ECC is time consuming and can
1235 block other operations until they complete. This is disabled by default,
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +02001236 but can be enabled by MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE at compile time and
1237 configured by mbedtls_ecp_set_max_ops() at runtime. It applies to the new
1238 xxx_restartable functions in ECP, ECDSA, PK and X.509 (CRL not supported
1239 yet), and to existing functions in ECDH and SSL (currently only
Simon Butcher4a865ef2018-10-28 18:00:51 +00001240 implemented client-side, for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphersuites in TLS 1.2,
1241 including client authentication).
1242 * Add support for Arm CPU DSP extensions to accelerate asymmetric key
1243 operations. On CPUs where the extensions are available, they can accelerate
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00001244 MPI multiplications used in ECC and RSA cryptography. Contributed by
1245 Aurelien Jarno.
1246 * Extend RSASSA-PSS signature to allow a smaller salt size. Previously, PSS
1247 signature always used a salt with the same length as the hash, and returned
1248 an error if this was not possible. Now the salt size may be up to two bytes
Simon Butcher06d80cf2018-11-06 23:46:04 +00001249 shorter. This allows the library to support all hash and signature sizes
1250 that comply with FIPS 186-4, including SHA-512 with a 1024-bit key.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard823c9152018-07-02 12:05:49 +02001251 * Add support for 128-bit keys in CTR_DRBG. Note that using keys shorter
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +00001252 than 256 bits limits the security of generated material to 128 bits.
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00001253

Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00001264 platform error.
1265 * All module specific generic hardware acceleration errors following the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01001266 form MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED that are deprecated and are replaced
1267 by the equivalent plaform error.
1268 * Deprecate the function mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() in favor of
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +03001269 mbedtls_mpi_is_prime_ext() which allows specifying the number of

1289 after use.
Hanno Beckerf143a782018-11-06 17:43:16 +00001290 * Use `mbedtls_platform_zeroize()` instead of `memset()` for zeroization
1291 of sensitive data in the example programs aescrypt2 and crypt_and_hash.
1292 * Change the default string format used for various X.509 DN attributes to
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00001293 UTF8String. Previously, the use of the PrintableString format led to
1294 wildcards and non-ASCII characters being unusable in some DN attributes.

1304 * Add tests for session resumption in DTLS.
1305 * Close a test gap in (D)TLS between the client side and the server side:
Simon Butcherddc9e262018-10-27 18:27:41 +01001306 test the handling of large packets and small packets on the client side
1307 in the same way as on the server side.
Simon Butcher404aa652018-10-01 14:44:22 +01001308 * Change the dtls_client and dtls_server samples to work by default over
1309 IPv6 and optionally by a build option over IPv4.
1310 * Change the use of Windows threading to use Microsoft Visual C++ runtime
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00001311 calls, rather than Win32 API calls directly. This is necessary to avoid
1312 conflict with C runtime usage. Found and fixed by irwir.
1313 * Remember the string format of X.509 DN attributes when replicating
1314 X.509 DNs. Previously, DN attributes were always written in their default
1315 string format (mostly PrintableString), which could lead to CRTs being
1316 created which used PrintableStrings in the issuer field even though the
1317 signing CA used UTF8Strings in its subject field; while X.509 compliant,
1318 such CRTs were rejected in some applications, e.g. some versions of
Hanno Becker0bb204c2018-10-30 10:08:33 +00001319 Firefox, curl and GnuTLS. Reported in #1033 by Moschn. Fix contributed by

1382 * Fix a bug that caused SSL/TLS clients to incorrectly abort the handshake
1383 with TLS versions 1.1 and earlier when the server requested authentication
1384 without providing a list of CAs. This was due to an overly strict bounds
Hanno Becker44814642018-08-03 09:53:48 +01001385 check in parsing the CertificateRequest message,

1411 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC and using SHA-384,
1412 in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed an active network attacker to
1413 partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions by
1414 exploiting timing measurements. With DTLS, the attacker could perform
1415 this recovery by sending many messages in the same connection. With TLS
1416 or if mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only
1417 worked if the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly
1418 sent over connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM
1419 or CCM instead of CBC, using hash sizes other than SHA-384, or using
1420 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. The vulnerability was
1421 caused by a miscalculation (for SHA-384) in a countermeasure to the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cc1fb02018-06-28 12:10:27 +02001422 original Lucky 13 attack. Found by Kenny Paterson, Eyal Ronen and Adi

Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01001426 machine as well as manipulate network packets, to partially recover the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard830ce112018-07-11 18:27:08 +02001427 plaintext of messages under some conditions by using a cache attack
1428 targeting an internal MD/SHA buffer. With TLS or if
1429 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only worked if
1430 the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly sent over
1431 connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM or CCM
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard7b420302018-06-28 10:38:35 +02001432 instead of CBC or using Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected.

1434 * Add a counter-measure against a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based
1435 on CBC, in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed a local attacker, able to

1542API Changes
1543 * Extend the platform module with a util component that contains
1544 functionality shared by multiple Mbed TLS modules. At this stage
1545 platform_util.h (and its associated platform_util.c) only contain
1546 mbedtls_platform_zeroize(), which is a critical function from a security
1547 point of view. mbedtls_platform_zeroize() needs to be regularly tested
1548 against compilers to ensure that calls to it are not removed from the
1549 output binary as part of redundant code elimination optimizations.
Hanno Becker2bd57572018-03-28 14:52:35 +01001550 Therefore, mbedtls_platform_zeroize() is moved to the platform module to
Simon Butcherd72700a2018-06-01 19:11:55 +01001551 facilitate testing and maintenance.

1564Security
1565 * Fix an issue in the X.509 module which could lead to a buffer overread
1566 during certificate validation. Additionally, the issue could also lead to
1567 unnecessary callback checks being made or to some validation checks to be
1568 omitted. The overread could be triggered remotely, while the other issues
1569 would require a non DER-compliant certificate to be correctly signed by a
1570 trusted CA, or a trusted CA with a non DER-compliant certificate. Found by
1571 luocm. Fixes #825.
1572 * Fix the buffer length assertion in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
1573 function which led to an arbitrary overread of the message buffer. The
1574 overreads could be caused by receiving a malformed message at the point
1575 where an optional signature algorithms list is expected when the signature
Andrzej Kurekb7a18c02018-04-25 05:25:30 -04001576 algorithms section is too short. In builds with debug output, the overread
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01001577 data is output with the debug data.
1578 * Fix a client-side bug in the validation of the server's ciphersuite choice
1579 which could potentially lead to the client accepting a ciphersuite it didn't
1580 offer or a ciphersuite that cannot be used with the TLS or DTLS version
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +01001581 chosen by the server. This could lead to corruption of internal data

1596 or writing.
1597 * Add function mbedtls_ssl_check_pending() to the public API to allow

Jethro Beekmancb122372018-04-11 08:40:38 -07001616 * Fix parsing of PKCS#8 encoded Elliptic Curve keys. Previously Mbed TLS was
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01001617 unable to parse keys which had only the optional parameters field of the
1618 ECPrivateKey structure. Found by Jethro Beekman, fixed in #1379.
1619 * Return the plaintext data more quickly on unpadded CBC decryption, as
Gilles Peskineb9e86962018-04-04 09:20:59 +02001620 stated in the mbedtls_cipher_update() documentation. Contributed by

1624 * Restrict usage of error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ to situations
1625 where data needs to be fetched from the underlying transport in order
1626 to make progress. Previously, this error code was also occasionally
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01001627 returned when unexpected messages were being discarded, ignoring that
1628 further messages could potentially already be pending to be processed
Gilles Peskinef2b76cd2018-04-19 17:41:39 +02001629 in the internal buffers; these cases led to deadlocks when event-driven
1630 I/O was used. Found and reported by Hubert Mis in #772.
1631 * Fix buffer length assertions in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
Andrzej Kurek5462e022018-04-20 07:58:53 -04001632 function which leads to a potential one byte overread of the message
1633 buffer.

1635 decompression.
1636 * Fix the soversion of libmbedcrypto to match the soversion of the
1637 maintained 2.7 branch. The soversion was increased in Mbed TLS
Gilles Peskine08185402018-03-22 21:50:48 +01001638 version 2.7.1 to reflect breaking changes in that release, but the

1650 Budai.
1651 * Harden the function mbedtls_ssl_config_free() against misuse, so that it
1652 doesn't leak memory if the user doesn't use mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk() and
Andres Amaya Garciacb47a792018-03-27 21:19:50 +01001653 instead incorrectly manipulates the configuration structure directly.
1654 Found and fix submitted by junyeonLEE in #1220.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfff308e2018-03-28 11:13:05 +02001656 MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is not enabled. This allows the use of PBKDF2

1680 * Declare functions in header files even when an alternative implementation
1681 of the corresponding module is activated by defining the corresponding
1682 MBEDTLS_XXX_ALT macro. This means that alternative implementations do
Andrzej Kurekaca09c72018-04-13 05:18:08 -04001683 not need to copy the declarations, and ensures that they will have the

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001771 * Fix a heap corruption issue in the implementation of the truncated HMAC
1772 extension. When the truncated HMAC extension is enabled and CBC is used,
1773 sending a malicious application packet could be used to selectively corrupt
1774 6 bytes on the peer's heap, which could potentially lead to crash or remote
1775 code execution. The issue could be triggered remotely from either side in
1776 both TLS and DTLS. CVE-2018-0488
1777 * Fix a buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the hash was too large
1778 for the key size, which could potentially lead to crash or remote code
1779 execution. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm Product Security Initiative,
1780 Qualcomm Technologies Inc. CVE-2018-0487
1781 * Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the unmasked data is all
1782 zeros.
1783 * Fix an unsafe bounds check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity() when adding
1784 64 KiB to the address of the SSL buffer and causing a wrap around.
1785 * Fix a potential heap buffer overflow in mbedtls_ssl_write(). When the (by
Hanno Becker930025d2017-09-18 16:07:19 +01001786 default enabled) maximum fragment length extension is disabled in the
1787 config and the application data buffer passed to mbedtls_ssl_write
1788 is larger than the internal message buffer (16384 bytes by default), the
1789 latter overflows. The exploitability of this issue depends on whether the
1790 application layer can be forced into sending such large packets. The issue
1791 was independently reported by Tim Nordell via e-mail and by Florin Petriuc
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001792 and sjorsdewit on GitHub. Fix proposed by Florin Petriuc in #1022.
1793 Fixes #707.
1794 * Add a provision to prevent compiler optimizations breaking the time
1795 constancy of mbedtls_ssl_safer_memcmp().
Andres Amaya Garcia364051f2017-07-05 15:40:17 +01001796 * Ensure that buffers are cleared after use if they contain sensitive data.
Andres Amaya Garciad48ba2b2017-07-06 17:17:43 +01001797 Changes were introduced in multiple places in the library.
Ron Eldor31162e42017-09-05 15:34:35 +03001798 * Set PEM buffer to zero before freeing it, to avoid decoded private keys
1799 being leaked to memory after release.
Janos Follathb174c842017-09-20 16:26:04 +01001800 * Fix dhm_check_range() failing to detect trivial subgroups and potentially
1801 leaking 1 bit of the private key. Reported by prashantkspatil.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001802 * Make mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() constant-time with respect to the input
1803 data. Previously, trailing zero bytes were detected and omitted for the
1804 sake of saving memory, but potentially leading to slight timing
1805 differences. Reported by Marco Macchetti, Kudelski Group.
Hanno Becker509fef72017-10-19 10:10:18 +01001806 * Wipe stack buffer temporarily holding EC private exponent
1807 after keypair generation.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001808 * Fix a potential heap buffer over-read in ALPN extension parsing
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard239987f2018-01-09 10:43:43 +01001809 (server-side). Could result in application crash, but only if an ALPN
1810 name larger than 16 bytes had been configured on the server.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01001811 * Change default choice of DHE parameters from untrustworthy RFC 5114
1812 to RFC 3526 containing parameters generated in a nothing-up-my-sleeve
1813 manner.

1818 line arguments.
Gilles Peskine8873bcc2017-10-27 18:42:32 +02001819 * New unit tests for timing. Improve the self-test to be more robust
1820 when run on a heavily-loaded machine.
Gilles Peskine618d0912018-01-02 16:04:19 +01001821 * Add alternative implementation support for CCM and CMAC (MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT,
Jaeden Amero91d49e82018-01-11 16:35:44 +00001822 MBEDTLS_CMAC_ALT). Submitted by Steven Cooreman, Silicon Labs.

1826 configuration flags MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT and
1827 MBEDTLS_ECDSDA_GENKEY_AT in config.h.
Ron Eldor2981a0a2017-09-24 15:41:09 +03001828 The following functions from the ECDSA module can be replaced
Ron Eldor314adb62017-10-10 18:28:25 +03001829 with alternative implementation:
Ron Eldor2981a0a2017-09-24 15:41:09 +03001830 mbedtls_ecdsa_sign(), mbedtls_ecdsa_verify() and mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey().
Hanno Becker087d5ad2018-01-24 16:06:25 +00001831 * Add support for alternative implementation of ECDH, controlled by the
1832 new configuration flags MBEDTLS_ECDH_COMPUTE_SHARED_ALT and
Ron Eldora84c1cb2017-10-10 19:04:27 +03001833 MBEDTLS_ECDH_GEN_PUBLIC_ALT in config.h.
Ron Eldor8b766212017-09-24 15:44:56 +03001834 The following functions from the ECDH module can be replaced
1835 with an alternative implementation:
1836 mbedtls_ecdh_gen_public() and mbedtls_ecdh_compute_shared().
Hanno Becker087d5ad2018-01-24 16:06:25 +00001837 * Add support for alternative implementation of ECJPAKE, controlled by
1838 the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_ALT.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001839 * Add mechanism to provide alternative implementation of the DHM module.

Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +00001841API Changes
1842 * Extend RSA interface by multiple functions allowing structure-
1843 independent setup and export of RSA contexts. Most notably,
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001844 mbedtls_rsa_import() and mbedtls_rsa_complete() are introduced for setting
Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +00001845 up RSA contexts from partial key material and having them completed to the
1846 needs of the implementation automatically. This allows to setup private RSA
1847 contexts from keys consisting of N,D,E only, even if P,Q are needed for the
1848 purpose or CRT and/or blinding.
1849 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_RSA_ALT can be used to define alternative
1850 implementations of the RSA interface declared in rsa.h.
Gilles Peskine0a969102018-01-22 14:55:20 +01001851 * The following functions in the message digest modules (MD2, MD4, MD5,
1852 SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) have been deprecated and replaced as shown below.
1853 The new functions change the return type from void to int to allow
1854 returning error codes when using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT.
1855 mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts_ret()
1856 mbedtls_<MODULE>_update() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_update_ret()
1857 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish_ret()
Andres Amaya Garciaf01a6442017-07-03 16:00:59 +01001858 mbedtls_<MODULE>_process() -> mbedtls_internal_<MODULE>_process()
Gilles Peskineb04e2c32017-09-29 15:45:12 +02001859
Ron Eldor73a38172017-10-03 15:58:26 +03001860New deprecations
1861 * Deprecate usage of RSA primitives with non-matching key-type
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001862 (e.g. signing with a public key).
Andres Amaya Garciaf569f702017-06-28 09:25:10 +01001863 * Direct manipulation of structure fields of RSA contexts is deprecated.
1864 Users are advised to use the extended RSA API instead.
Jaeden Amero005239e2018-01-25 14:47:39 +00001865 * Deprecate usage of message digest functions that return void
1866 (mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts, mbedtls_<MODULE>_update,
1867 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish and mbedtls_<MODULE>_process where <MODULE> is
1868 any of MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) in favor of functions
1869 that can return an error code.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01001870 * Deprecate untrustworthy DHE parameters from RFC 5114. Superseded by
1871 parameters from RFC 3526 or the newly added parameters from RFC 7919.
1872 * Deprecate hex string DHE constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P etc.
1873 Supserseded by binary encoded constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P_BIN
1874 etc.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001875 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param() for setting default DHE parameters
1876 from hex strings. Superseded by mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param_bin()
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01001877 accepting DHM parameters in binary form, matching the new constants.

Ron Eldor73a38172017-10-03 15:58:26 +03001885 * Parse signature algorithm extension when renegotiating. Previously,
1886 renegotiated handshakes would only accept signatures using SHA-1
1887 regardless of the peer's preferences, or fail if SHA-1 was disabled.
Andres Amaya Garcia735b37e2016-11-21 15:38:02 +00001888 * Fix leap year calculation in x509_date_is_valid() to ensure that invalid

1900 If a call to one of the functions of the cryptographic primitive modules
1901 failed, the error may not be noticed by the function
1902 mbedtls_pem_read_buffer() causing it to return invalid values. Found by
1903 Guido Vranken. #756
Gilles Peskine4b117d92017-11-28 17:23:37 +01001904 * Include configuration file in md.h, to fix compilation warnings.
1905 Reported by aaronmdjones in #1001

2070 when sending the alert failed. The fix makes sure not to hide the error
Gilles Peskine3df98f52017-05-10 17:47:40 +02002071 that triggered the alert.
Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01002072 * Fix SSLv3 renegotiation behaviour and stop processing data received from

3885 POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF on an EOF from its f_recv() function.
3886 ssl_read() returns 0 if a POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF is received
3887 after the handshake.
Paul Bakker831a7552011-05-18 13:32:51 +00003888 * Network functions now return POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_READ or
