Re: [mbed-tls] LTS roadmap and announcement channel?

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi Simon, Indeed while the migration is underway things can be a bit confusing, so let me try to clarify: * releases can be found at: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/releases - near the top you'll alwys find the latest development release followed by the latest LTS releases. At this point it is unclear if releases are going to stay on github or if they would move to trustedfrimware.org in the future, but if anything changes, we'll announce it. * announcements about new releases and other important project events are made on the new Mbed-tls-announce mailing-list: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/releases - if you're already subscribed to mbed-tls (this list), you don't need to subscribe to the "announce" mailing list in addition, as any post to "announce" is automatically cross-posted here ("announce" is for people who want a lower volume list). * I don't think we're currently making announcements about upcoming releases, but I know we considered that. Unfortunately I don't remember the details and the colleague who was working on improving our release process is on leave now. But it we start making such announcements, they'll be on the "announce" list. * We're currently planning 2.16.8 early in September. * If you have a large number of products deployed that depend on Mbed TLS (or indeed any other tf.org project) and would like to be notified in advance of upcoming security fixes, please see the following pages: https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/w/mbed-tls/security-center/ https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/w/collaboration/security_center/repor… https://developer.trustedfirmware.org/w/collaboration/security_center/trust… I hope this answers your questions, and feel free to ask otherwise.

Custom PSA API Implementation for mbedTLS tests

by murat＠za-ya.co

Hi all, We have implemented the PSA Functional API for a custom secure environment which passes PSA Arch tests. Now we would like to run mbedtls tests (make check) on the PSA API if possible. When we run "make check", it includes and compiles library/psa_crypto.c file for mbedTLS's PSA API Implementation. Herein, we would like to compile our own psa_crypto.c implementation, does mbedtls build system allow us to include custom PSA API Implementation to run tests? Thank you. Murat

Re: [mbed-tls] Diffie Hellman Key Exchange

by Gilles Peskine

Hello, The interface of the Diffie-Hellman (DHM) module is modeled on the way it's used in TLS, which is a bit different from the classical presentation. You can find code examples in programs/pkey/dh_client.c and programs/pkey/dh_server.c . Elliptic-curve Diffie-Hellman (provided by the ECDH module) has similar security properties and is significantly faster. If you don't need interoperability with legacy software that only supports classical (finite-field) Diffie-Hellman, you should use ECDH rather than DHM. With the ECDH module, you can use either the same TLS-inspired interface as the DHM module, or a more classical interface for which there is a usage example in psa_crypto.c in the function psa_key_agreement_ecdh. Hope this helps, -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer You can find an example of the TLS-like inter On 12/08/2020 14:02, youssouf sokhona via mbed-tls wrote: > > Hello, I hope you are going well during this Covid crisis. > > > > I'm sending you this message to find out how to generate a Diffie > Hellman key using MbedTLS.

Minimum Python version

by Gilles Peskine

Hello, Short version: to use the official tools to configure Mbed TLS, or to run the unit tests, you need Python. If we start requiring Python 3.5, is this going to be a problem? Detailed version: Mbed TLS includes four Python scripts that are of interest to users, with a fifth one in preparation: * scripts/config.py : compile-time configuration (unless you prefer to edit config.h directly). * scripts/generate_psa_constants.py : to build programs/psa/psa_constant_names (we have a pending task to commit the result instead of requiring it during the build). * tests/scripts/generate_test_code.py : necessary to build the unit tests. * tests/scripts/mbedtls_test.py : does anyone use this? It's for testing on platforms with Greentea, but some of the automation is missing. * upcoming: a script to generate glue code for accelerator and secure element drivers. We'll also provide a manual way, but it won't be as convenient. This is a question to everyone who's building Mbed TLS and using some of these scripts: is it ok if they require Python 3.5? Currently: * scripts/config.py requires Python 3.5. * scripts/generate_psa_constants.py requires Python 3.3. * tests/scripts/generate_test_code.py still works with Python 2.7. * tests/scripts/mbedtls_test.py still works with Python 2.7. * the driver glue code generation script will require Python 3.5, or Python 3.4 + typing. Is there any demand for versions of Python before 3.5? -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer

Diffie Hellman Key Exchange

by youssouf sokhona

Hello, I hope you are going well during this Covid crisis. I'm sending you this message to find out how to generate a Diffie Hellman key using MbedTLS. Indeed, with all the documentation, I'm a bit lost. I think, you have to use the int mbedtls_dhm_set_group function to create p and g. And then, I don't know how to use which function... Moreover, I can't find any function that allows to set a and b, whereas they are 2 fundamental elements Can you help me? Thank you! Best regards, YS

Re: [mbed-tls] Availability of 2.16.7 in download archive

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Frank, I confirm that 2.16.7 is an official release of the 2.16 long-time support branch of Mbed TLS, alongside 2.7.16 for the 2.7 branch and 2.23.0 for the latest features. Everyone should update to one of these versions since they fix security issues and other bugs. We're progressively transitioning the project from Arm infrastructure to TrustedFirmware infrastructure. Eventually we'll decommission the existing tls.mbed.org, and we intend to distribute releases via trustedfirmware.org. We no longer intend to reference new releases directly on https://tls.mbed.org/download-archive . For the time being, we're distributing via GitHub. However, it isn't right that https://tls.mbed.org/download-archive links to https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/releases/ which doesn't list LTS branches. We need to link from https://tls.mbed.org/download-archive to the place that has the latest LTS releases one way or the other. There are no longer separate archives with Apache and GPL licenses. These archives were always identical except for license headers. Now LTS releases are distributed as a single archive in which the files are dual-licensed. The naming with mbedtls-mbedtls- must be a bug in our release script. Thanks for noticing. I don't think we made a conscious decision not to provide official checksums. I can see the value of having them so let's try to incorporate those in our new release process. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer On 04/08/2020 19:05, Frank Bergmann via mbed-tls wrote: > Hi, > > 2.16.7 was released on github more than one month ago (2020-07-01). > But it is not listed on > - download archive at https://tls.mbed.org/download-archive > - release news at https://tls.mbed.org/tech-updates/releases > > Questions about that: > - Is it an "official" release even if it is not mentioned on release news? > - When will it be available in download archive? > - If there will be no more addings to download archive because now we'll > have to use github: > * Will there be separate releases GPL/Apache available? > * Will a signed/unsigned check sum be provided? > * Will the "new structure" as provided by tarball on github be kept > in future or was it just an accident?

Re: [mbed-tls] Entropy & TRNG on the BGM13P32

Hi Youssouf, This is Steven with Silicon Labs. It sounds like you have questions that are very device-specific, and relate to Silicon Labs products. We do provide TRNG drivers for mbed TLS through Simplicity Studio and our software SDK. Please contact our support staff at www.silabs.com/support<http://www.silabs.com/support>, and they’ll do their best to help you out with your questions.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Hi, everyone, First of all, I hope you are all healthy during this difficult time. I am working with Simplicity Studio IDE with MbedTLS and I am currently working on a project with a BGM13P32. I plan to perform a key exchange via bluetooth with the Diffie Hellman protocol. To start my project, I need an entropy source. I read the following on the BGM13P32 documentation "The TRNG is a non-deterministic random number generator based on a full hardware solution. The TRNG is validated with NIST800-22and AIS-31 test suites as well as being suitable for FIPS 140-2 certification (for the purposes of cryptographic key generation)." And I also read about the Random Number Generator "The Frame Controller (FRC) implements a random number generator that uses entropy gathered from noise in the RF receive chain.The data is suitable for use in cryptographic applications.Output from the random number generator can be used either directly or as a seed or entropy source for software-based random num-ber generator algorithms such as Fortuna" Knowing this, how can we use this to create entropy and then create a sequence of random numbers? I need to implement the MbedTLS_hardware_poll() function? Do I have to add another entropy, like real timing for example As you can see I am a bit confused actually. Can you help me out? Thanks in advance, and take care of yourself !

Hi, everyone, First of all, I hope you are all healthy during this difficult time. I am working with Simplicity Studio IDE with MbedTLS and I am currently working on a project with a BGM13P32. I plan to perform a key exchange via bluetooth with the Diffie Hellman protocol. To start my project, I need an entropy source. I read the following on the BGM13P32 documentation "The TRNG is a non-deterministic random number generator based on a full hardware solution. The TRNG is validated with NIST800-22and AIS-31 test suites as well as being suitable for FIPS 140-2 certification (for the purposes of cryptographic key generation)." And I also read about the Random Number Generator "The Frame Controller (FRC) implements a random number generator that uses entropy gathered from noise in the RF receive chain.The data is suitable for use in cryptographic applications.Output from the random number generator can be used either directly or as a seed or entropy source for software-based random num-ber generator algorithms such as Fortuna" Knowing this, how can we use this to create entropy and then create a sequence of random numbers? I need to implement the MbedTLS_hardware_poll() function? Do I have to add another entropy, like real timing for example As you can see I am a bit confused actually. Can you help me out? Thanks in advance, and take care of yourself !

Open & Read a file with a BGMQ

by youssouf sokhona

Morning, First of all, I hope you are all healthy during this difficult time. I am working with Simplicity Studio IDE and with Mbed TLS and I am currently working on a project with a BGM13P32. I plan to write in a file some parameters that will allow a key exchange by bluetooth (Diffie Hellman Protocol). I intend to make the BGM13P32 read this file, and these data to allow a key exchange. Is it possible to do that? If yes, how? Because I'm a total beginner Thank you, and take care of yourself !

DTS session resumption and fragmentation

by Fatima, Fariya

Hi all, I have configured the max fragment length at the client and server to both 512. With this setting when I try to reconnect using a saved session at the client side, the ssl handshake doesn’t seem to happen. Below is the comment in the server code. /* We don't support fragmentation of ClientHello (yet?) */ The mbedtls code I am using is version 2.16.6. Are there any plans to support fragmentation of clienthello? Do let me know Regards, Fariya

DTLS session resumption

by Fatima, Fariya

Hi, I do not quite have enough knowledge on DTLS session resumption .. nevertheless here's my question: a) Difference between the features: MBEDTLS_SSL_COOKIE_C and MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS? b) Enabling the feature MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS would be sufficient to resume an earlier established DTLS session quickly (i.e avoid the whole TLS handshake done the last time)? c) How do I test this - i.e initiate connection from client and server, break the connection and then make the client connect to the server again? Not sure what additional steps are required on client side. Any callbacks to be registered in the code? Regards, Fariya

Re: [mbed-tls] [Mbed-tls-announce] Force push on the master branch

by Gilles Peskine

On 20/07/2020 12:21, Scott Branden via mbed-tls wrote: > Although this particular change doesn't affect me - rewriting history is a > bad idea. > > Why not simply commit a revert back to a cleaner point on "master" branch > and then commit the new changes you want from there? > > Then history is not lost on master branch. Mbed TLS used to follow the Git Flow model: day-to-day work happens on the 'development' branch, and there's a 'master' branch which always points to the latest commit on master that's a tagged release. A release is done by tagging a commit on 'development' and fast-forwarding 'master' to it. But after the 2.16 LTS release, we made 'master' follow the 2.16 LTS branch rather than 'development'. I think this was a mistake, but it's too late to change this, the question is what we do now with the existing situation. A force-push on 'master' would not erase history from the face of the world. The history is still there in 'mbedtls-2.16'. It is no longer possible to fast-forward 'master' to any commit on 'development'. No amount of revert or merge commits on 'master' will make it be the same commit as some a release made from 'development'. Without a force-push, all we can hope is to have 'master' have the same content as a release. This means that getting the same release would give you the same content, but different history, depending on whether tyou get it from 'master' or 'development'. This would also mean a more complicated release process. Another solution would be to do a merge of 'master' into 'development', ignoring all changes from the 'master' side. But this would mess up the history on 'development'. Is this more complicated release process, or this messy history, worth it, just to avoid a force-push? > Or, with the BLM movement some repos are stopping use of master branch. > github seems to be encourage it going forware: > https://www.zdnet.com/article/github-to-replace-master-with-alternative-ter… > > So another option: stop using "master" branch.

But then we'd still have to keep a branch with the old name, for the sake of existing setups that pull from 'master'. Or else we should make a commit on 'master' that removes every file and instead adds a README that says "pull from 'main' instead". -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer

If a review takes > several days, it needs to be scheduled. As an aside, Mbed TLS is under the governance of TrustedFirmware. Currently, only Arm employees are consider trusted reviewers, but this is not by policy, it's only due to the history of the project (until a few months ago, Mbed TLS was governed by Arm). We (as in, the Arm employees working on Mbed TLS) welcome design and code reviews from everyone. We don't yet have a formal process for becoming a “trusted” reviewer, beyond the general principles of TrustedFirmware. But a required part of that process will undoubtedly be to have done some reviews before. As every project, there is an informal, unwritten culture. If there's interest, we can try to document our review culture in writing. If I had to sum it up in one sentence, I'd say that if a reviewer should reject code that they don't understand: it's the job of the patch author to convince reviewers that the patch is good. “I don't see anything wrong” is not a good enough standard. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer
