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?

Error while parsing certificate

by Subramanian Gopi Krishnan

Hi, I have an inhouse developed secure authentication program that uses certificate for authentication. I have used mbedtls library for the x.509 certificate verification purpose. In our custom PKI we have only three level of certificates, Root-CA -> Intermediate-CA -> Device-Cert. The embedded device has very limited memory, so instead of sending whole certificate chain, the devices communicates intermediate_CA and device cert (in der format base64 encoded) in separate packet. Root-CA will be available on node as trusted-ca. Intermediate is verified against Root; then device cert is verified against intermediate. The problem is, the poc developed on linux platform is working fine - but on embedded platform I encounter either 0x3b00(parsing failed) or 0x2700(with flag 8). Also the error code are inconsistent. I verified the integrity of packet with certificate using crc16. So no chance of certificate getting corrupted. Also verified the certificate's base64 format integrity using crc16. All certificates are sha256WithRSAEncryption; RSA Public-Key: (4096 bit) Attached config.h on target platform for reference - could you help me if anything wrong with configuration. While trying to trace, the flag was set from x509_crt.c from below code. /* No parent? We're done here */ if( parent == NULL ) { printf("NO_PARENT\r\n"); *flags |= MBEDTLS_X509_BADCERT_NOT_TRUSTED; return( 0 ); } Any clue would be helpful. Thanks, Gopi Krishnan

psa_raw_key_agreement does not like PSA_ALG_ECDSA(PSA_ALG_SHA_256)

by Christian Huitema

I am not sure I completely understand the PSA API for key exchange. I have been creating a private key, exporting the public key, passing that successfully to the peer, obtaining the peer's public key, and I want to use psa_raw_key_agreement to obtain the shared secret. But it fails in: if (!PSA_ALG_IS_KEY_AGREEMENT(alg)) { status = PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT; goto exit; } The value of "alg" is 0x06000609, computed as PSA_ALG_ECDSA(PSA_ALG_SHA_256). That's probably wrong, but I do not know why... -- Christian Huitema

Output format of mbedtls_ecdh_make_params does not play well with TLS 1.3

by Christian Huitema

In TLS 1.3, one half of an ECDH exchange is defined as a "key entry", coded as: struct { NamedGroup group; opaque key_exchange<1..2^16-1>; } KeyShareEntry; The opaque data is typically encoded as a one byte format (e.g., 0x04, no compression), and then the encoding of either one or two points: 32 bytes for one point with CURVE25519, 64 bytes for two points with SECP256R1. The encoding for the "public key" output of mbedtls_ecdh_make_params is different: 1 byte of length, followed by 2 bytes of curve ID, followed by the raw encoding of the point or points. The related encoding of the server public key output of mbedtls_ecdh_make_public is also different: 1 byte of length, followed by 2 bytes of curve ID, followed by the raw encoding of the point or points. To make that work, I need some reformatting: strip out 3 bytes for the client public key, write a single 0x04 byte instead; strip out one byte from the key-exchange data received at the server and write 3 bytes of length and curve ID instead. Also, make sure to reset the strings to the unmodified value before calling mbedtls_ecdh_calc_secret, which probably means maintaining two copies, thus twice the memory. This is a bit messy, and probably unnecessary. The extra parameters "length" is already passed through the API (the &olen argument) and the "group_id" could easily be passed as well. Or maybe I am looking at the wrong API... -- Christian Huitema

TLS handshake with AWS IoT MQTT broker seems to succeed and then is terminated by the broker

by Roger Sala

I am developing an AWS IoT MQTT client on STM32H723 using FreeRTOS 10.3.1, LwIP 2.1.2 and MbedTLS. My first attempt used MbedTLS 2.16.2 and it mostly works except that sometimes, seemingly related to the timing of the network I'm using, it fails when my client fails to send out anything after the Client Key Exchange message and then the server responds with a Close Notify as follows: "Time","Source","Destination","Protocol","Length","Info" "0.000000","10.24.108.94","54.157.158.237","TLSv1.2","418","Client Hello" "0.016460","54.157.158.237","10.24.108.94","TLSv1.2","150","Server Hello" "0.002777","54.157.158.237","10.24.108.94","TLSv1.2","685","Certificate" "0.000000","54.157.158.237","10.24.108.94","TLSv1.2","438","Server Key Exchange, Certificate Request, Server Hello Done" "0.976521","10.24.108.94","54.157.158.237","TLSv1.2","1006","Certificate, Client Key Exchange" "0.014853","54.157.158.237","10.24.108.94","TLSv1.2","61","Alert (Level: Warning, Description: Close Notify)" When it works it looks like this: "Time","Source","Destination","Protocol","Length","Info" "0.000000000","10.0.0.11","54.84.254.130","TLSv1.2","418","Client Hello" "0.017495225","54.84.254.130","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","150","Server Hello" "0.001743255","54.84.254.130","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","685","Certificate" "0.000022282","54.84.254.130","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","392","Server Key Exchange" "0.000004428","54.84.254.130","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","100","Certificate Request, Server Hello Done" "2.606030441","10.0.0.11","54.84.254.130","TLSv1.2","1326","Certificate, Client Key Exchange, Certificate Verify, Change Cipher Spec, Encrypted Handshake Message" "0.027421478","54.84.254.130","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","105","Change Cipher Spec, Encrypted Handshake Message" "0.000971482","10.0.0.11","54.84.254.130","TLSv1.2","193","Application Data" "0.075384354","54.84.254.130","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","87","Application Data" The last two "Application Data" messages are the MQTT connect and connect ACK, So before I filed a bug report, I upgraded to MbedTLS 2.28.4. The good news is that this client always (seems) to successfully negotiate the TLS handshake, but after receiving the first encrypted "Application Data" (connect), the broker immediately sends and "Encrypted Alert", which I'm taking to be a Close Notify because a TCP FIN follows shortly thereafter. The Wireshark capture of the 2.28.4 handshake looks almost exactly like the successful 2.16.2 handshake: "Time","Source","Destination","Protocol","Length","Info" "0.000000000","10.0.0.11","44.195.98.16","TLSv1.2","336","Client Hello" "0.018450117","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","150","Server Hello" "0.000524146","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","685","Certificate" "0.000003168","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","392","Server Key Exchange" "0.000002995","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","100","Certificate Request, Server Hello Done" "2.517148776","10.0.0.11","44.195.98.16","TLSv1.2","1329","Certificate, Client Key Exchange, Certificate Verify, Change Cipher Spec, Encrypted Handshake Message" "0.016572792","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","60","Change Cipher Spec" "0.000007326","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","99","Encrypted Handshake Message" "0.001500778","10.0.0.11","44.195.98.16","TLSv1.2","193","Application Data" "0.031014646","44.195.98.16","10.0.0.11","TLSv1.2","85","Encrypted Alert" ... except for the "Encrypted Alert" from the broker that leads to the closing of the session. I'm hoping someone has an explanation of the behavior I'm seeing and can suggest a path forward for me. Another data point is the fact that the client with MbedTLS 2.28.4 can successfully authentic and negotiate a TLS handshake with a mosquitto broker I'm running locally using self signed certificates. ====================================================================== The information contained in this e-mail, including all of its attachments, is confidential and proprietary information of IPG Photonics and its affiliates and intended only for the use of the individual or entity named above.

New TrustedFirmware Discord Server

by Don Harbin

Hi All, Note you may have received another instance of this note but when I attempted to send to all TF ML's simultaneously it seemed to fail, so sending to each one at a time. Sorry about that. :/ We've created a Discord Server for real time chats/sharing. This solution comes at no cost to the project, is set up with channels for each project, includes a #general channel, and supports direct 1-1 chats between members, all with the goal of improving collaboration between trustedfirmware.org developers. We encourage all to join! :) Instructions for joining can be found on the TF.org FAQ page <https://www.trustedfirmware.org/faq/>. See you all there and please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! Don Harbin TrustedFirmware Community Manager don.harbin(a)linaro.org
