support of EC and hashing algorithms

by c.luetzenkirchen＠innolectric.ag

hello, I am currently evaluating if latest mbed-TLS release does support following algorithms: - ECDSA using secp521r1 curve - EDDSA using Edwards curves 448 or 448-Goldilocks - ECDH using mentioned curves - SHA512 - SHAKE256 For some of them like SHA512 I found information in the documentation. Others like EDDSA and SHAKE256 seem to be incomplete. Is my assumption correct that TLS 1.3 is therefore NOT ready to use yet? Best regards, Chris

Question about long-time support for 3.x branch

by Maher Azarkan

Hello everyone, We are currently using the mbedTLS version 2.16.12 in our firmware and we are planning an update to a newer branch. I would like to know, how long the different 3.x branches will be supported. Is there any fix roadmap, how long an mbedTLS branch must be supported and maintained after its first release? I could only find this information for the 2.28 branch (support until end of 2024). Thank you for any help you can offer.

Porting from OpenSSL to MbedTLS

by matteo.cogi＠alice.it

Dear all, I need to migrate from OpenSSL to MbedTLS. I have to implement a SCEP client in my embedded environment composed by FreeRTOS as OS, mbedTLS as security layer and LwIP as network stack. The best candidate for the SCEP client role is the sscep library. It works very well under Ubuntu, but now I need to use it in my embedded environment, so I have to adapt sscep for MbedTLS. I would like to know if there is some porting/migration guide from OpenSSL to MbedTLS. Any kind of suggestion or support will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards, Matteo

Connect using IP address instead of URL "509 - Certificate verification failed, e.g. CRL, CA or signature check failed"

by M M

I am using MbedTLS client code based on this: https://github.com/machinezone/IXWebSocket/blob/master/ixwebsocket/IXSocket… I am connecting to a server via it's URL. However, I would like to connect directly using an IP address returned from running the traceroute command on the URL. So I replaced the URL with the IP address. However, MBedTLS fails on the handshake: https://github.com/machinezone/IXWebSocket/blob/master/ixwebsocket/IXSocket… I get the error: "error in handshake : X509 - Certificate verification failed, e.g. CRL, CA or signature check failed" If I revert back to URL, it works. The IP address does exist. How can I connect using the IP address, instead of the URL?

security issue in mbedtls 3.30

by Avi Epstein

security issue in mbedtls 3.30 in the release notes: "An adversary with access to precise enough information about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the victim performing a single private-key operation if the window size used for the exponentiation was 3 or smaller. Found and reported by Zili KOU, Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG. See "Cache Side-channel Attacks and Defenses of the Sliding Window Algorithm in TEEs" - Design, Automation and Test in Europe 2023." was this issue solved in this version?

ECDSA read_signature returns "invalid signature" status

by Tilen Majerle

Hello, I have 3rd party custom ECC library, that can do ECDSA verification and uses secp256r1 compressed public key (33bytes) to do so - all works fine. Now I want to migrate to mbedTLS, to also benefit of other crypto schemes, hence use of mbedtls ECDSA was a natural way to go. Here I need (as I understand) PEM parser or optionally public key in uncompressed format (0x04 | X | Y). Problem is that loading of the key seems to work (func returns 0), but verification fails with -20450, indicating (if I well understood) invalid signature. Test data.

Am I wrongly loading the keys?
