Server and client fails with “Verification of the message MAC failed” after Successful Handshake

by Vaibhav Sathye

Hi I am writing a server client with Libuv as tcp stack and mbedtls as ssl. I am able to do a successful handshake between server and client but after that when I try to write/read application data it fails with “Verification of the message MAC failed”. After inspecting debug logs, I found the server and client have the same Pre-master master secret and IV and still it is failing. Currently both client and server are on the same machine . I am attaching server and client logs. Any help is appreciated. server.log <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oaMMV2_YVDL8GLn6GH3PIQSIH5BDbGeU/view?usp=…> client.log <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Z9P1ssglqRpBUmXF9TuRQd6KJKvyw6RJ/view?usp=…> Thanks Vaibhav

Re: [mbed-tls] Request for Support [Issue : Webserver handshake failing with self-signed certificate]

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Selin, A possible problem could be a misconfigured random generator. However this is purely speculation. Can you get a stack trace? Finding the root cause requires finding where mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi is called. Please note that Mbed TLS 2.16.3 has known bugs and vulnerabilities. You should upgrade to the latest bug-fixing version of the 2.16 branch, 2.16.10. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer On 20/05/2021 13:06, Selin Chris via mbed-tls wrote: > > Hi, > > Thank you for adding me to the mbed-tls mailing list. > > We have created a self-signed certificate with ECC key of > MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP256R1 type, since it is a self-signed certificate > after we send the certificate to chrome from our web server it shows > not trusted and goes to the page where we need to manually proceed > with the acceptance of the certificate to allow further communication. > After this we again have to perform handshake for which we need to > prepare the server key exchange, while preparing the server key > exchange we notice that it is infinitely calling the > mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi() function in bignum.c and the execution is not > able to proceed hereafter.

Request for Support [Issue : Webserver handshake failing with self-signed certificate]

by Selin Chris

Hi, Thank you for adding me to the mbed-tls mailing list. We have created a self-signed certificate with ECC key of MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP256R1 type, since it is a self-signed certificate after we send the certificate to chrome from our web server it shows not trusted and goes to the page where we need to manually proceed with the acceptance of the certificate to allow further communication. After this we again have to perform handshake for which we need to prepare the server key exchange, while preparing the server key exchange we notice that it is infinitely calling the mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi() function in bignum.c and the execution is not able to proceed hereafter. Sometimes we also see that when executing ssl_prepare_server_key_exchange() function in ssl_srv.c we find ciphersuite_info pointer as null and the program goes into data panic due to that. We have checked our stacks and not seen any sign of corruption. The mbedtls version that we are using is mbedtls-2.16.3. Please find the attached wireshark trace during this scenario. The IP 192.168.2.67 corresponds to our webserver and 192.168.2.100 the pc with the browser. Please let us know the root-cause of the issue and the actions to be taken to fix this - can you please expedite as this is a blocking issue in our project. Thanks for the support. Regards, Selin.

Re: [mbed-tls] Query for TLS 1.3

by Shebu Varghese Kuriakose

Hi Manoj, As you might have seen, TLS1.3 prototype is available in github https://github.com/hannestschofenig/mbedtls/tree/tls13-prototype The project is working on reviewing the prototype and upstreaming parts of it to Mbed TLS. The currently open pull requests to Mbed TLS project can be found here: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/labels/MPS%20%2F%20TLS%201.3 Some of the outstanding work is captured here - https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/projects/2#column-12964476 If possible, please test the TLS1.3 prototype and let know if you have any feedback. Also welcome to review any patches. 1. Expected date for release of MbedTLS with TLS 1.3 support? A subset of TLS 1.3 features is aimed to be available around the last quarter of 2021. TLS1.3 support in Mbed TLS at that point would be limited for TLS (no DTLS), Client side and ECDHE. There won't be support for server side, PSK and 0-RTT in this initial version. Note the last quarter target is based on high level task estimations and can change based on progress made in the coming months. You can use the prototype above in the interim for prototyping/development purposes. It is not expected to be integrated on production platforms though. 1. Is MbedTLS with TLS 1.3 support available under paid subscription? No, there is no paid offerings in Mbed TLS project. Mbed TLS project is an open source community project under trustedfirmware.org (https://www.trustedfirmware.org/) and is available to use under the open source license (Refer license section - https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls). 1. Process for paid subscription (if point #2 applicable) Not Applicable Regards, Shebu From: mbed-tls <mbed-tls-bounces(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org<mailto:mbed-tls-bounces@lists.trustedfirmware.org>> On Behalf Of Manoj Srivastava via mbed-tls Sent: Monday, May 17, 2021 8:57 PM To: mbed-tls(a)lists.trustedfirmware.org<mailto:mbed-tls@lists.trustedfirmware.org> Subject: [mbed-tls] Query for TLS 1.3 Hello, I am using mbedTLS for TLS support.

Re: [mbed-tls] Support for ECDH key generation with Curve25519

by brian_d＠tutanota.com

Hi, thanks a lot for the fast reply and sorry for my late answer but I did a lot of tests in order to solve the problem (I never had success on compute shared function when "talking" with another peer). Yes, you're right, no need to modify anything. The issue was that mbedtls uses ecp point coordinates in big endian format while the other peer bytes were intended to be in little endian format. After reversing the bytes before compute shared everything worked! Thank you, have a nice day!

mbedTLS -entropy source issue

by Pandurangan, Devi

Hi, I'm trying to integrate NXPs secure element SE050 into an application running on MSP432E401Y chip. I was able to successfully integrate their middleware(Plug and trust) on a baremetal project with mbedTLS enabled. It seems on this baremetal project, entropy_source (from entropy_alt.c) is not working. And this has a knock on effect on mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed function which fails and takes the entire project down with it. Also, from the sole example given in the Simplelink SDK (tcpechotls), I see that mbedtls is used in a project with RTOS enabled. Should I try integrating this code in an RTOS based project and check? Has anyone worked on this ?

Re: [mbed-tls] URGENT PLEASE

by Frank Bergmann

Hello Younes, I assume that you recently joined the list here. In that case: Please welcome! Since ole times of Usenet it is a common behaviour to first subscribe a list/channel and listen to the posts. After some time write your own first email to the list, introduce yourself quickly and write about your problem. But please do never start with an email carrying "URGENT" in subject. This is not politely. See, the people maintaining this list do this without any fees. The spent their time to answer questions "from the community" for free. And they do it well! Hence please avoid galopping in here. ;-) You want https and sftp implementations, which are layer 7 and actually mostly on a different/higher layer then mbed TLS. And they are not trivial - there is NO SIMPLE implementation! Please compare it to projects like e.g. Apache or OpenSSH: The people required months/years to get an implementation. Regarding the C code you sent: Obviously it is at least partly coming from STM and it has a size of more than 50 KiB. Why did you sent that? This is not just a code snippet of a few lines. Did you actually expect that anyone would analyze it? Maybe someone is on this list who knows the code and can give you some hints. But don't expect a "working example of https and sftp". Hence my personal answer: - Basic examples like "client" and "server" are already provided by mbed TLS! You just need to extend them with https and sftp protocol. - If you want to use a SIMPLE implementation then please use Python or Java/Groovy. Because then you don't need to know most of the technical details of https and sftp. - If you are looking for many "working examples" of code then you should also think about using a lib like OpenSSL which is mostly used. And please be politely. Please remember that the people here are giving support for free. Great support for free. cheers, Frank On 03.05.21 21:11, Younes Boulahya via mbed-tls wrote: > I am using STM32F303RCT6 and W5500, I want to upgrade to HTTPS and > SFTP, but I can't find any working example that I can use, can you > provide me a simple one PLEASE, of both HTTPS and SFTP. > > I attach my current c code, thank you so much 🌷 > -- Frank Bergmann, Pödinghauser Str. 5, D-32051 Herford, Tel. +49-5221-9249753 SAP Hybris & Linux LPIC-3, E-Mail tx2014(a)tuxad.de, USt-IdNr DE237314606 http://tdyn.de/freel -- Redirect to profile at freelancermap http://www.gulp.de/freiberufler/2HNKY2YHW.html -- Profile at GULP

Re: [mbed-tls] Support for ECDH key generation with Curve25519

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Brian, It's not clear to me what you're trying to do. Mbed TLS supports Curve25519 arithmetic for X25519, accessible through the mbedtls_ecdh_xxx interface. If you want to use Curve25519 for some other purpose, this may or may not be supported via direct access to the mbedtls_ecp_xxx interface. The curve arithmetic code only supports predefined groups, it does not support changing the generator without patching the library. For Curve25519, the generator is the point (X,Z)=(9,1). Isn't this the generator you want?

Problems during certificate verifing

by stefano664

Good morning, I'm testing a routine that verify the validity of an intermediate certificate, against my root certificate. Both certificates are generated on my machine. The code to do this is here: https://wtools.io/paste-code/b4OL I can do the verify with openSSL and works fine. When I pass certificates tombedTLS it returns these errors: The certificate is signed with an unacceptable hash. The certificate is signed with an unacceptable PK alg (eg RSA vs ECDSA). The certificate is signed with an unacceptable key (eg bad curve, RSA too short). Can someone help me to find the mistakes? Thanks for your help.

Mbed TLS 3.0 branch transition

by Dave Rodgman

Hi, Today we are switching our branches around, so that the development branch focuses on Mbed TLS 3.0, to be released mid-year. This will include API-breaking changes. 2.x development work will continue on the development_2.x branch. After merging development_3.0 onto development, the development_3.0 branch will be removed. There is no change to the process for submitting PRs: new PRs should continue to target development, with backports to 2.x and 2.16 as needed. (The exception would be a bug-fix that only affects older branches, which would only need ports to the affected branches and not to development). As part of the 3.0 work, we are looking at various things that can be removed from the library. For some of these, we’ve notified the mailing list – please let us know in the next week if you have a good reason for retaining the feature in question. - Remove support for TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0 https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4286 - Remove support for the "Truncated HMAC" (D)TLS extension https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4341 - Remove support for 3DES ciphersuites in (D)TLS https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4367 - Remove support for RC4, Blowfish, XTEA, MD2 and MD4 https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4084 - Remove support for pre-v3 X.509 certificates with extensions https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4386 - Remove the RSA key mutex https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4124 - Remove MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4313 - 3.0 and 2.x :- Minimum development environment: is it OK to require Python >= 3.6 and/or CMake >= 3.5.2? https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2021-March/000319.html Dave Rodgman

Removal of generated source and build files from the development branch

by Gilles Peskine

Hello, A number of files in the Mbed TLS source tree are automatically generated from other files, with a content that does not depend on the platform or configuration. We are considering removing the generated files from the development branch in Git, at least during the work towards Mbed TLS 3.0. This would affect at least the development branch until the 3.0 release, and may affect the development_2.x branch and the development branch after the 3.0 release. Long-time support branches and official releases will continue to have these source files in the Git tree. The reason to remove the generated files is to facilitate development, especially with the restructuring that is happening as we prepare a new major version of the library. This is an experimental change; depending on how effective it is, we may or may not wish to restore the generated files on the development branch when 3.0 stabilizes. It's also still possible that we will not go ahead with this change, depending on the impact on our CI and on the feedback we receive. The affected files are: * Two library source files: library/error.c and library/version_features.c. * Parts of some test programs: programs/test/query_config.c and programs/psa/psa_constant_names_generated.c. * The Visual Studio project files. * Some unit test data files. What does this change for you? **If you were using a long-time support branch or an official release**: no change. **If you were using the supplied GNU Makefile**: there should be no effective change. **If you were using CMake, Visual Studio or custom build scripts** on the development branch: Perl (>=5.8) will be required to generate some library sources and to generate the Visual Studio project files. Python (>=3.4) was already required to run config.py and to build the unit tests. Note that the generated files are independent of the Mbed TLS configuration, so if your deployment has a pre-configuration step, you can generate the files at this step: no new tool is required after the library is configured. The ongoing work (not complete yet as I write) is at https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/pull/4395 if you want to see what this change means concretely. We are aware that the additional dependencies are a burden in some environments, which is why we will definitely not change anything to releases or to current and future long-time support branches. If you are building Mbed TLS from the development branch and this change affects you, please let us know what constraints apply to your environment.

Hello, I would like to report a possible bug in rsa_prepare_blinding function in rsa.c (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/blob/v2.26.0/library/rsa.c). I am not sure if it is a real issue, but I think that there is a possibility to use uninitialized variable ret: static int rsa_prepare_blinding( mbedtls_rsa_context *ctx, int (*f_rng)(void *, unsigned char *, size_t), void *p_rng ) { int ret, count = 0; <--- uninitialized variable ret mbedtls_mpi R; mbedtls_mpi_init( &R ); if( ctx->Vf.p != NULL ) { /* We already have blinding values, just update them by squaring */ MBEDTLS_MPI_CHK( mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi( &ctx->Vi, &ctx->Vi, &ctx->Vi ) ); MBEDTLS_MPI_CHK( mbedtls_mpi_mod_mpi( &ctx->Vi, &ctx->Vi, &ctx->N ) ); MBEDTLS_MPI_CHK( mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi( &ctx->Vf, &ctx->Vf, &ctx->Vf ) ); MBEDTLS_MPI_CHK( mbedtls_mpi_mod_mpi( &ctx->Vf, &ctx->Vf, &ctx->N ) ); goto cleanup; <--- going to cleanup without setting a value of ret } (Skipping lines for readability) cleanup: mbedtls_mpi_free( &R ); return( ret ); <--- returning uninitialized variable ret } Best regards, grapix121

3.0 proposal: remove support for pre-v3 X.509 certificate with extensions

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi all, Version 3 of X.509 was published in 1997 and introduced extensions. However, in the years that followed, some implementations did generate certificates with extensions and a declared version less than 3. Such certs were never compliant and are rejected by default, however we have a compile-time option to no reject them for that reason: MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_EXTENSIONS_NON_V3 Since this is 2021 and pre-v3 certificates are unlikely to still be used, we'd like to remove this option in Mbed TLS 3.0. (It would remain in 2.16 and the upcoming 2.x LTS branch.) As usual, more details can be found in the github issue: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4386 If you need this option to still be available in Mbed TLS 3.0, please speak up now, here on on github! Regards, Manuel.

Re: [mbed-tls] SSL session cache API in Mbed TLS 3.0

by Jérémy Audiger

Hi Hanno, Regarding your first point, I'm not against having the structure mbedtls_ssl_session as opaque on the application side, at least, it ensures the application is not modifying something that it shouldn't. Having said that, on my side, I access three fields of this structure: * sslContext.state * sslContext.own_cid_len * sslContext.own_cid The first one is used to retrieve the current state, mainly MBEDTLS_SSL_HANDSHAKE_OVER, MBEDTLS_SSL_SERVER_HELLO_VERIFY_REQUEST_SENT. Finally, the match between an incoming LwM2M Client encrypted message using CID and the structure mbedtls_ssl_session is done by accessing own_cid / own_cid_len. But I think this one could be done using mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cid().

If you are using a custom SSL server-side session cache implementation which accesses fields other than the session ID and which can not be implemented based on session serialization, now is the time to speak up and let us know about your use case.

Re: [mbed-tls] Signing messages with ECDSA

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Stefano, Assuming that the key is in PEM format and that the buffers (hash, tmp) are large enough, I don't see anything wrong in the part of the code you posted. You posted code without error checking. Can you confirm that all functions return 0? mbedtls_pk_sign produces ECDSA signatures in ASN.1 format. The size of the signature can be up to 104 bytes, and is often a few bytes shorter because it consists of numbers in which leading zeros are omitted. Make sure the tmp buffer is large enough. You can use MBEDTLS_ECDSA_MAX_SIG_LEN(384) or MBEDTLS_ECDSA_MAX_LEN (from mbedtls/ecdsa.h) as the signature buffer size. 72 bytes is the maximum size of a signature for a 256-bit key, reached about 25% of the time. Are you sure you're signing with the key you intended? People may be able to help more if you post complete code that we can run on our machine.

Signing messages with ECDSA

by stefano664

Hi all, I have some problems with mbedTLS during ECDSA signing process. I followed the example supplied with the source code and write this code: mbedtls_pk_init(&pk); mbedtls_pk_parse_key(&pk, (const unsigned char *) flash.flash_ver0.ecc_priv_key, strlen(flash.flash_ver0.ecc_priv_key) + 1, (const unsigned char *)CA_DEF_ISSUER_PWD, CA_DEF_ISSUER_PWD_LEN); mbedtls_md(mbedtls_md_info_from_type(MBEDTLS_MD_SHA256), msg, msg_len, hash); mbedtls_pk_sign(&pk, MBEDTLS_MD_SHA256, hash, 0, tmp, (size_t *)&len, mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random, &ctr_drbg); The private key is an ECC key with 384 bit. I have two issue: 1) In tmp variable I found the signature, but it is 72 byte, instead of 96 (384*2/87); 2) On this signature I try to make a verify, but fails. Where I'm wrong?

Re: [mbed-tls] TLS serialization

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi Jérémy, Thanks for your question! Indeed, the context (de)serialization feature only support DTLS so far. We've added an enhancement request to our backlog to extend it to TLS: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4340 However, it may take some time before we get to it, as we're currently focused on preparing Mbed TLS 3.0. Also, this enhancement may very well turn out to be more complex that it might look initially: TLS is a reliable stream protocol (as opposed to DTLS which is an unreliable datagram protocol) and there will probably be some precautions to take and corner case to handle in order to make sure the full stream is preserved. If you or anyone else wants to open a PR for that, that would obviously help - though again, I'm afraid we'll have little review bandwidth until the end of June. (More generally, it's always a good idea to coordinate on the list before raising a large or complex PR.)

After digging through the mailing list, I discovered this previous topic: https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/000012.html and this Github repository: https://github.com/dimakuv/mbedtls-psk-example The scenario is the same here: using PSK with ciphersuite MBEDTLS_TLS_PSK_WITH_AES_128_CCM_8 Once the handshake is done, I'm able to serialize the TLS session with the patch attached to this email.

The use case here is really interesting, it seems to work well except when I receive or emit a message split into multiple fragments. Something is lost during the session backup. Maybe an interesting thing to add is when I'm loading a TLS session from the database, I'm following these steps: * Load the session into a buffer from the database * Init a security session with mbedtls_ssl_init() and mbedtls_ssl_setup() * Load the session from the buffer with mbedtls_ssl_context_load() Since I'm not an expert of mbed TLS code, I would like to know if someone could help me investigate this issue. TLS serialization/deserialization could be interesting to be part of the mbed TLS library. Regards, Jérémy Audiger

3.0 Proposal: remove 3DES ciphersuites

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi all, We'd like to completely remove support for 3DES TLS ciphersuites in Mbed TLS 3.0. Those ciphersuites are vulnerable to the Sweet32 attack and 3DES has been deprecated by NIST. If we remove them from Mbed TLS 3.0, they will remain available in Mbed TLS 2.16 and 2.x, the latter being supported until 3 years after 3.0 has been released. As usual, if for any reason you need support for 3DES TLS ciphersuites in Mbed TLS 3.0, please speak up now and let use know about your use case! More context can be found at https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4367 Regards, Manuel.

Hi, We consider removing the support for MD2, MD4, RC4, Blowfish and XTEA from Mbed TLS 3.0 (but the support will remain in the 2.16 and 2.2x LTS branches for the course of their lifetime). If you use one of those cryptographic primitives and think it should remain in Mbed TLS 3.0, please let us know and explain why. You can find more information in the following GitHub issue: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4084. Best regards, Ronald Cron.

SSL session cache API in Mbed TLS 3.0

by Hanno Becker

Hi Mbed TLS enthusiasts, For Mbed TLS 3.0, we're considering to modify the API around SSL sessions and server-side SSL session caches as follows: 1) The mbedtls_ssl_session structure becomes opaque, that is, its layout, fields, size is not part of the API and thus not subject to any stability promises. Instances of mbedtls_ssl_session may only be accessed through public function API. At the time of writing, this is mainly mbedtls_ssl_session_load()/save() for session serialization and deserialization. In particular, user code requiring access to specific fields of mbedtls_ssl_session won't be portable without further adjustments, e.g. the addition of getter functions. If you access fields of mbedtls_ssl_session in your code and would like to retain the ability to do so, now is the time to speak up and let us know about your use case. 2) The SSL session cache API gets modified as proposed in https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4333#issuecomment-820297322: int mbedtls_ssl_cache_get( void *data, unsigned char const *session_id, size_t session_id_len, mbedtls_ssl_session *dst_session ); int mbedtls_ssl_cache_set( void *data, unsigned char const *session_id, size_t session_id_len, mbedtls_ssl_session const *session ); In words: The session ID becomes an explicit parameter. This modification is necessary because the present session cache API requires custom implementations to peek into the mbedtls_ssl_session structure, at least to inspect the session ID. With the session ID being added as an explicit parameter, this is no longer necessary. We propose that custom session cache implementations treat mbedtls_ssl_session instances opaquely and only use them through the serialization and deserialization API mbedtls_ssl_session_load()/save(). The reason why the proposed API does not operate on serialized data directly is that this would enforce unnecessary copies. If you are using a custom SSL server-side session cache implementation which accesses fields other than the session ID and which can not be implemented based on session serialization, now is the time to speak up and let us know about your use case. Kind regards, Hanno

3.0 proposal: remove support for Truncated HMAC

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi everyone, Truncated HMAC is a TLS extension that was originally created to reduce overhead in constrained environments. Nowadays, CCM-8 ciphersuites are an alternative that's superior both in terms of having even lower overhead and in terms of security. Consequently, recent RFCs have stated that the Truncated HMAC extensions must no longer be used. So, we would like to entirely remove support for this extension from Mbed TLS 3.0. (LTS branches would obviously retain support for it.) If you need support for Truncated HMAC extension in Mbed TLS 3.0, please speak up now! More context and details can be found in this github issue, which can also be used for discussion: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4341 Regards, Manuel.

TLS serialization

by Jérémy Audiger

Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to add the ability to serialize / deserialize a TLS security session using these APIs: * mbedtls_ssl_context_load() * mbedtls_ssl_context_save() I'm on TLS Server-side (so not talking about TLS Client here). After digging through the mailing list, I discovered this previous topic: https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/000012.html and this Github repository: https://github.com/dimakuv/mbedtls-psk-example The scenario is the same here: using PSK with ciphersuite MBEDTLS_TLS_PSK_WITH_AES_128_CCM_8 Once the handshake is done, I'm able to serialize the TLS session with the patch attached to this email. After that I'm able to decrypt one incoming packet and encrypt one ongoing packet. So, almost everything is fine. But, when the TLS Server is receiving another message from the TLS Client (message sent in two fragments), the Server is able to decrypt the first fragment but not the second one, getting this error: ssl_msg.c:5475: 0x7f9aa803d288: => read ssl_msg.c:4029: 0x7f9aa803d288: => read record ssl_msg.c:2012: 0x7f9aa803d288: => fetch input ssl_msg.c:2167: 0x7f9aa803d288: in_left: 0, nb_want: 5 ssl_msg.c:2192: 0x7f9aa803d288: in_left: 0, nb_want: 5 ssl_msg.c:2195: 0x7f9aa803d288: ssl->f_recv(_timeout)() returned 5 (-0xfffffffb) ssl_msg.c:2215: 0x7f9aa803d288: <= fetch input ssl_msg.c:3763: 0x7f9aa803d288: dumping 'input record header' (5 bytes) ssl_msg.c:3763: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0000: 17 03 03 00 41 ....A ssl_msg.c:3765: 0x7f9aa803d288: input record: msgtype = 23, version = [3:3], msglen = 65 ssl_msg.c:2012: 0x7f9aa803d288: => fetch input ssl_msg.c:2167: 0x7f9aa803d288: in_left: 5, nb_want: 70 ssl_msg.c:2192: 0x7f9aa803d288: in_left: 5, nb_want: 70 ssl_msg.c:2195: 0x7f9aa803d288: ssl->f_recv(_timeout)() returned 65 (-0xffffffbf) ssl_msg.c:2215: 0x7f9aa803d288: <= fetch input ssl_msg.c:3874: 0x7f9aa803d288: dumping 'input record from network' (70 bytes) ssl_msg.c:3874: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0000: 17 03 03 00 41 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 27 9d 1a ....A........'.. ssl_msg.c:3874: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0010: 50 14 ff e1 14 8c b0 f5 de 06 1c f0 43 5c a0 91 P...........C\.. ssl_msg.c:3874: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0020: 46 23 3e 42 86 ed 3a 48 38 3d e8 b4 05 09 50 ac F#>B..:H8=....P. ssl_msg.c:3874: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0030: 94 6b 9c fb c6 22 7b 46 62 e0 af 08 ab 60 50 3c .k..."{Fb....`P< ssl_msg.c:3874: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0040: 6d c6 c8 7c cb 2c m..|., ssl_msg.c:1301: 0x7f9aa803d288: => decrypt buf ssl_msg.c:1414: 0x7f9aa803d288: dumping 'additional data used for AEAD' (13 bytes) ssl_msg.c:1414: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 17 03 03 00 31 ............1 ssl_msg.c:1423: 0x7f9aa803d288: dumping 'IV used' (12 bytes) ssl_msg.c:1423: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0000: db 70 01 4b 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 .p.K........ ssl_msg.c:1424: 0x7f9aa803d288: dumping 'TAG used' (8 bytes) ssl_msg.c:1424: 0x7f9aa803d288: 0000: 50 3c 6d c6 c8 7c cb 2c P<m..|., ssl_msg.c:1437: 0x7f9aa803d288: mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() returned -25344 (-0x6300) ssl_msg.c:3900: 0x7f9aa803d288: ssl_decrypt_buf() returned -29056 (-0x7180) Between each emission or reception of the fragment, the TLS security context is loaded and saved into a database. The use case here is really interesting, it seems to work well except when I receive or emit a message split into multiple fragments. Something is lost during the session backup. Maybe an interesting thing to add is when I'm loading a TLS session from the database, I'm following these steps: * Load the session into a buffer from the database * Init a security session with mbedtls_ssl_init() and mbedtls_ssl_setup() * Load the session from the buffer with mbedtls_ssl_context_load() Since I'm not an expert of mbed TLS code, I would like to know if someone could help me investigate this issue. TLS serialization/deserialization could be interesting to be part of the mbed TLS library. Regards, Jérémy Audiger

3.0 proposal: remove support for TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi everyone, The IETF has recently published RFC 8996, which formally deprecates TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0 (there is no DTLS 1.1). One of the stated goals of the RFC is to empower maintainers of (D)TLS stacks to remove them from their code base, reducing the maintenance cost and the attack surface at the same time. This RFC comes right during the time we're preparing a new major version, which is the only time we allow ourselves to remove features. We'd like to take advantage of this opportunity by entirely removing support for TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0 in Mbed TLS 3.0. (They would obviously stay in our long-term support branches.) If you find yourself needing support for these versions in Mbed TLS 3.0, now is the time to speak up! More details can be found in the following github issue: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4286 Feel free to discuss this issue on the list or on github, whatever's more convenient for you. Best regards, Manuel.

Mbed TLS 3.0 branching

by Dave Rodgman

Hello Mbed TLS users, As previously announced, we are going to switch the focus of Mbed TLS development onto the upcoming 3.0 release. * We have created the development_2.x branch, currently aligned with the tip of development * For the next two weeks, we will keep development and development_2.x in sync (daily) * On April 22, we will merge development_3.0 into development, and remove development_3.0 This means that after April 22: * development will contain API-breaking changes * new features will not normally be back-ported to development_2.x (unless there is a compelling reason to do so) * relevant bugfixes will be backported as normal Impact for users: * users of development should consider whether they should switch to using development_2.x * authors of PRs requiring backports may require an additional backport to development_2.x Regards Dave Rodgman

3.0 proposal: remove MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS

by Gilles Peskine

Hello, I propose to remove the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS feature from Mbed TLS 3.0. (As with everything else, it will of course remain in the 2.16 and 2.2x long-time support branches.) If you are using MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS and you think it should remain, please let us know and explain why. If you are not using this feature, I personally think that you're making the right choice. But if you're curious what it is, you can read the documentation or my description in https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/4313 . -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer

Re: [mbed-tls] mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed fails, returns MBEDTLS_ERR_ENTROPY_SOURCE_FAILED

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Jeff, It looks like you're using an old version of Mbed TLS. mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed used to set ctx->entropy_len to entropy_len * 3 / 2, but this changed (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-crypto/pull/238) to making a call to mbedtls_entropy_func for entropy_len and then one again for entropy_len / 2, precisely to avoid the scenario you're describing where the HMAC_DRBG module would request more entropy than the entropy can deliver in a single call. Please upgrade to the latest release of Mbed TLS, or the latest 2.16 release if you want a long-time support branch. The version you're using is old and has known vulnerabilities. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer On 06/04/2021 13:59, Thompson, Jeff via mbed-tls wrote: > > ï¿½ > > The call flow is mbedtls_hmac_drbg -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_reseed -> > mbedtls_entropy_func where the parameter, len, is 48 and > MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE is 32.

mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed fails, returns MBEDTLS_ERR_ENTROPY_SOURCE_FAILED

by Thompson, Jeff

The call flow is mbedtls_hmac_drbg -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_reseed -> mbedtls_entropy_func where the parameter, len, is 48 and MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE is 32. I see that mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed sets ctx->entropy_len = entropy_len * 3 / 2, which explains the size difference. I've probably mis-configured (see attached) in order to use TLS-ECDHE-RSA-WITH-AES-128-CBC-SHA, because other ciphers take too long.

Re: [mbed-tls] Mbed TLS mbedtls_ssl_config (struct) Question

by Manuel Pegourie-Gonnard

Hi Keith, Those are good questions, and the short answer is everything should work in a multi-threaded environment if Mbed TLS was built with threading support (for example, enabling MBEDTLS_THREADING_C and MBEDTLS_THREADING_PTHREAD in config.h). Now for some more details: regarding mbedtls_ssl_config, it is indeed treated as read-only by all function in the SSL/TLS module, except of course those functions that are explicitly meant to modify it (those whose name starts with mbedtls_ssl_conf_). So, if you set it up in the main thread and then use it in other threads, everything will be fine regarding the top-level structure itself (for sub-structures see below), regardless of whether threading support is enabled. For the DRBG contexts, you're right that each time we draw from them, they need to update their state. However, this is protected by a mutex if threading support was enabled at compile-time. A similar thing goes for private keys : RSA private keys are protected by a mutex if threading support is enabled (using them mutates state used for side-channel countermeasures), and ECDSA private keys are safe too. X.509 structures are always treated as read-only. Regarding documentation: we did recently expand the documentation on DRBGs: https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/commit/f305d92480c81c6eb02934a4e1af58152… Regarding SSL, I agree this should be better documented. If you'd like to open a PR to add documentation that would have answered your question, that would be very welcome.

Re: [mbed-tls] C/assembly option

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Raoul, Do I understand correctly that the problem with Mbed TLS as it is now is that you need MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM enabled for AESNI and disabled for bignum? Would you want even more granularity? In principle, we could create a new compile-time option MBEDTLS_MPI_ASM, defaulting to what it does now (enabled if MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM if the platform is one of the known ones) but overridable in either direction. However I don't like it much because we're trying to cut down on compilation options to reduce the maintenance burden: each compilation option adds complexity which makes it harder to understand all interactions between different parts of the library, and adds some testing burden. Symmetric and asymmetric crypto are mostly decoupled, so this one wouldn't be too bad, but it all adds up. In the long term, I expect that the different cryptographic algorithms will become more decoupled, with a possibility to treat each one as a black box that could be implemented by a hardware driver, and with a uniform mechanism to select drivers (or maybe they should be called engines). The evolution of the crypto part of the library to PSA is going in this direction. But we aren't there yet. Sorry that I don't have a more satisfying answer here. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer On 31/03/2021 09:13, Raoul Strackx via mbed-tls wrote: > Hi all, > > We have a product that requires very strong security measures.

Minimum development environment: 2021 edition

by Gilles Peskine

Hello, In a nutshell: 1. Must Mbed TLS support Python 3.4 to configure and test, or can 3.6 be enough? 2. Must the supplied CMake scripts support 2.8.12.2, or can 3.5.2 be enough? This thread is about minimum tool versions to configure, build and test Mbed TLS (excluding TLS interoperability testing and some maintainer scripts) on Linux and similar (Unix-like) platforms. (This is not about the set of platforms where Mbed TLS will _run_, which is as close to “anything with CHAR_BIT==8 and sizeof(size_t) >= 4” as we can make it.) Our general guideline is that Mbed TLS should build out of the box on supported versions of major desktop and server operating systems. In practice, this has tended to mean supporting tool versions from RHEL/CentOS, SLES and Ubuntu LTS releases (but not necessarily extended security maintenance releases). Last year (https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/thread.html) we concluded that we should support the following minimum versions, which will remain supported in the Mbed TLS 2.16 long-time support (LTS) branch: clang 3.8 cmake 2.8.12.2 gcc 4.4 make 3.81 python 3.4 (in 2.16: only to build the unit tests, not to configure) Since then, RHEL 6 and Ubuntu 16.04 have reached their end of life, the CentOS world has changed considerably. Looking at maintained platforms after April 2021 (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/issues/2896#issuecomment-603471273), our current goal for the upcoming Mbed TLS 2.x LTS (last release before 3.0) is: clang 6.0 cmake 2.8.12.2 (or 3.5.2? or 3.10.2?) gcc 4.8 make 3.82 python 3.6 (or 3.4.10?) Regarding Python: is there any demand for supporting Python versions older than 3.6? Python 3 is required to fine-tune the library configuration (it is not needed if you use the default config.h or a handwritten one) and build the unit tests. Regarding CMake: it is increasingly problematic for us to support CMake 2.8.12, which is only required for RHEL 7: other distributions under consideration have at least CMake 3.5. There is an ongoing effort to improve our CMake scripts to make it easier to integrate Mbed TLS into a larger project, but it is difficult to preserve backward compatibility with 2.8.12. Would it be acceptable to require CMake >= 3.5? CMake >= 3.10.2? If you have any constraints that are not captured here or if you have an opinion regarding Python and CMake versions, please let us know quickly. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer

C/assembly option

by Raoul Strackx

Hi all, We have a product that requires very strong security measures. When compiling the mbedtls library, we face the following issue: Compiling C code with LVI-mitigations is often much faster than relying on automatic LVI mitigations on assembly code. The MPI functions are a good example where we wish to rely on C source code. For other functions, we need to rely on assembly code in order to mitigate other vulnerabilities (e.g., we require AESNI assembly instructions over C implementations of AES). Currently there isn't an option to choose between C/assembly per function. What would be an acceptable solution for this? greetings, Raoul

Mbed TLS releases: 2.26.0, 2.16.10 and 2.7.19

by Dave Rodgman

Hi Mbed TLS users, We have released Mbed TLS versions 2.7.19, 2.16.10 and 2.26.0. These releases of Mbed TLS address several security issues, provide bug fixes, and bring other minor changes. Full details are available in the release notes (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/releases/tag/mbedtls-2.26.0, https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/releases/tag/mbedtls-2.16.10, https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/releases/tag/mbedtls-2.7.19). We recommend all users to consider whether they are impacted, and to upgrade appropriately. Please note that there will be no further releases on the 2.7 branch, as this is now out of the three year support period. Dave Rodgman

Re: [mbed-tls] Use PKCS#11 and mbed TLS

by Gilles Peskine

Also, if you're looking for a hardware platform with PSA Crypto drivers, Silicon Labs has one available. They've been participating in Mbed TLS development recently and a large part of the driver support code added in the past few months comes from them.

Re: [mbed-tls] Use PKCS#11 and mbed TLS

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Frank, I'm not sure what you're looking for. Do you mean open source projects like Curl and Hiawatha that can use Mbed TLS as a cryptography provider? Those are generally using the classic API, and so can't make generic use of secure elements. I am aware of private projects using the limited features available today (for example, TLS servers can use async private key operations to put the key in an HSM — see https://tls.mbed.org/kb/how-to/ssl_async). I've used SoftHSM in the past as a way to test portable PKCS#11 client code without hardware. It did the job well. I can't speak for the quality of its cryptography since I was only using it for testing. If you're looking for a generic interface between applications and secure elements, then I would recommend PSA crypto over PKCS#11. We did try to make PSA Crypto a better PKCS#11. Obviously I'm biased :) But of course PKCS#11 is old and venerable, whereas PSA is new and the support for hardware secure elements is still a work in progress. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer and PSA Crypto architect On 21/02/2021 17:11, Frank Bergmann via mbed-tls wrote: > Hi Gilles, > > thank you for your detailled answer. > Honestly I was in fear that your answer would look like this. ;-) > > Do you maybe know of any plans of any software project to use mbed TLS > together with a secure element? > > I asked SoftHSM because it looks much promising for our goals but they > answered that they don't have any plans to use different ssl libs. > > > cheers, > Frank > > > On 08.02.21 23:07, Gilles Peskine via mbed-tls wrote: >> Hi Frank, >> >> Support for HSM keys in Mbed TLS is a work in progress.

AFter a week of debugging yesterday I was able to solve the issues on my PR, but the ABI-API failure is still on. I was told that based on my changes it is OK, I should not worry. Does this mean that my PR is ready for review or it should have disappeared by now? In the second case could someone provide me the jenkins reports and some idea where should I start searching?

Hello Guys! I know it is a newbie question, but I am not able to pass this freaking DCO test...I have used the provided commands to signoff all the commits and as I see all of them has signoff, but it still failes on one. Do you have any idea what's wrong or how could I correct it? Till now I was able to correct it, but now it seems to be bugged. Thank you! BR? Gábor

Re: [mbed-tls] Use PKCS#11 and mbed TLS

by Frank Bergmann

Hi Gilles, thank you for your detailled answer. Honestly I was in fear that your answer would look like this. ;-) Do you maybe know of any plans of any software project to use mbed TLS together with a secure element? I asked SoftHSM because it looks much promising for our goals but they answered that they don't have any plans to use different ssl libs. cheers, Frank On 08.02.21 23:07, Gilles Peskine via mbed-tls wrote: > Hi Frank, > > Support for HSM keys in Mbed TLS is a work in progress.

Re: [mbed-tls] Failures: all_sh-ubuntu-16.04-test_memory_buffer_allocator

by Gilles Peskine

Hi Gábor, To reproduce locally, the correct invocation would be tests/scripts/all.sh test_memory_buffer_allocator Specifically, the failing tests are SSL tests. To reproduce those tests, build the right configuration and run tests/ssl-opt.sh -f 'DTLS fragmenting: proxy MTU, * renego' I've posted the relevant logs on the GitHub issue. It's unusual for the memory_buffer tests to fail when memory sanitizers are passing, so I don't know what's going on. -- Gilles Peskine Mbed TLS developer On 16/02/2021 11:13, Gábor Tóth via mbed-tls wrote: > Hello Guys! > > I have an error related to test_memory_buffer_allocator on the server > in my PR (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/pull/4140).
