TLS 1.3: two question about ticket session

by Michał Antoniak

Hello, I am trying to add TLS 1.3 support to a curl project (https://github.com/MAntoniak/curl). As a result, it has two questions. The first refers to the error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_RECEIVED_NEW_SESSION_TICKET. This suggests an error receiving a new session ticket. I couldn't find anything else in the documentation. However, in the ssl_cllient2.c example application (line 2638), this code is used as a message to the application about a new session ticket. This makes me unsure whether it would be correct to continue receiving application data normally. The second question relates to the receipt of tickets. The curl project does not store session tickets, so it uses the MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS_DISABLED flag. If this is the case, why do we nevertheless receive a new ticket from the server? Thank you for your reply. Michał Antoniak

Appending a cert to mbedtls_x509_crt

by Roman Janota

Hello, I have an implementation in OpenSSL and am trying to recreate it using MbedTLS. One of the differences in these two I have yet to overcome is the following: Is there a way to treat mbedtls_x509_crt simply as a certificate store? Say I have some PEM data, parse it into a temporary mbedtls_x509_crt and then I would like to append this certificate to said mbedtls_x509_crt certificate store. The following is stated in the docs of mbedtls_x509_crt: > struct mbedtls_x509_crt *next Next certificate in the linked list that constitutes the CA chain. NULL indicates the end of the list. Do not modify this field directly. Is there a way to achieve this if it's advised not to modify the field directly? Thank you in advance, Roman.

mbedtls_ecp_gen_key vs mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey

by Tom Work

Hey All, I am trying to generate ECDSA public-private key pair for self-signed certificate, and came across these examples In gen_key.c <https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/bee96566dac936e7fdfa7aa18b6a1f6767…>, "mbedtls_ecp_gen_key()" is used In ecdsa.c <https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/bee96566dac936e7fdfa7aa18b6a1f6767…>, "mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey()" is used. My questions are: - Which function should be used? (It seems mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey() is just a wrapper of mbedtls_ecp_gen_key()?) - If using mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey(), what are the steps to write the public key into PEM format? (My understanding is that I define a mbedtls_pk_context, and convert its address into mbedtls_ecdsa_context *, and pass the pointer into mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey, and then call mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey(), is this correct?) Thanks, Tom

Public key from certificate?

by Christian Huitema

Public key operations like "psa_verify_message" use a "key-id" argument to represent the public key. Is there a simple way to obtain or register that key-id using the "cert->pk" member of a parsed certificate? -- Christian Huitema

Use of auto-generation approach for mbedtls/mbed-crypto driver psa_crypto_driver_wrappers..h file

by Ruchika Gupta

Hi All, Apologies for the long email. I am adding all the 3 projects (TF-M, mbedTLS and Zephyr) to the mail chain because the issues I discuss below are inter-connected and affect all the three projects. From mbedtls 3.5.0 version, the mbedtls project has migrated to auto-generated psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.h file. https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/development/docs/psa-driver-exampl… https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/development/docs/proposed/psa-driv… On TF-M, mbed-crypto, there are 2 patches for the drivers given below which are still hardcoding their changes and not following the above approach. 1. PSA_CRYPTO_DRIVER_TFM_BUILTIN_KEY_LOADER (0001-Add-TF-M-Builtin-Key-Loader-driver-entry-points.patch) 2. PSA_CRYPTO_DRIVER_CC3XX (0005-Hardcode-CC3XX-entry-points.patch) We at NXP, have migrated our psa crypto wrappers to the above approach using auto-generation. We want to maintain same code base for mbedtls for our SDK's, TFM mbed-crypto as well as align mbedTLS fork in Zephyr. We are increasingly finding it difficult to migrate to newer versions of mbedtls because of hardcoding of above drivers. The problem is specially on the Zephyr front, where in the mbedTLS fork in zephyr these patches from tfm are applied by default. I have queries for all the 3 projects listed below : TF-M --> Can you please let us know what are the plans to migrate these 2 drivers in tfm to the auto-generation approach. If these patches can be migrated to make changes in jinja files rather than hardcoding in psa_crypto_driver_wrappers , things would be much easier to integrate. Is somebody already working on it ? Are you open to accept patches for this change ? mbedTLS --> What is the long term strategy from mbedTLS on this auto-generation ? We still have a lot of hard-coding in .jinja file rather than using drivers.json. Would mbedTLS/new PSA crypto repository start accepting patches for psa wrappers from platforms ? Can the patches which TF-M project maintains be merged in the mbedTLS ? Zephyr --> On Zephyr front, what are the plans to align to this auto-generation approach ? Regards, Ruchika

Why is mbedtls 3.x faster than 2.x?

by Work Only

I recently updated an embedded HTTPs web service using mbedtls from 2.22.0 to 3.2.1, and noticed the performance is about 30% better/faster. This is good for sure, but I am curious, what are the changes contributing to this improvement? Thanks!
