Regarding implementation of MBED CRYPTO libraries without entropy source on baremetal

by PRASHANT TRIPATHI

Dear sir/madam I have following queries regarding implementation of MBED CRYPTO Libraries : 1) How crypto libraries files could be used on baremetal with no entropy source(cross compilation )? 2) How asymmetric cryptographic operations like RSA , RNG , EC ,DSA etc , could be implemented on baremetal without entropy , seed provisions ? 3) If i want to use some custom PRNG and entropy , then how the respective contexts structures could be filled ? Thanks & Regards, *Prashant Tripathi*

About setting arbitrary RDN while generating a CSR with mbedtls

by Aditya Patwardhan

I am using mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_subject_name API from mbedtls to set the subject name. I wanted to set the arbitrary old value in my certificate for e.g. ffeBgt9jDHhBwPDANgtT7R/1.3.6.1.4.1.37244.2.1=FFF2/1.3.6.1.4.1.37244.2.2=8001 In this case ffeBgt9jDHhBwPDANgtT7R is the CN And 1.3.6.1.4.1.37244.2.1 is an arbitrary OID which has a value of FFF2 similar to the second arbitrary OID. I am able to do this through openssl commands, but while doing it through mbedtls, when I pass it as a string then mbedtls considers the whole string as CN which Is not my intention. Please fine the asn1 parsing of the CSR as below CSR generated through mbedtls: 18:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :commonName 23:d=5 hl=2 l= 76 prim: UTF8STRING :ffeBgt9jDHhBwPDANgtT7R/1.3.7.1.4.1.37466.2.1=FFF2+1.3.7.1.4.1.37466.2.2=8001 101:d=3 hl=2 l= 11 cons: SET 103:d=4 hl=2 l= 9 cons: SEQUENCE Target CSR ( done thorough openssl): 14:d=4 hl=2 l= 29 cons: SEQUENCE 16:d=5 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :commonName 21:d=5 hl=2 l= 22 prim: UTF8STRING :ffeBgt9jDHhBwPDANgtT7R 45:d=3 hl=2 l= 20 cons: SET 47:d=4 hl=2 l= 18 cons: SEQUENCE 49:d=5 hl=2 l= 10 prim: OBJECT :1.3.7.1.4.1.37466.2.1 61:d=5 hl=2 l= 4 prim: UTF8STRING :FFF2 67:d=3 hl=2 l= 20 cons: SET 69:d=4 hl=2 l= 18 cons: SEQUENCE 71:d=5 hl=2 l= 10 prim: OBJECT :1.3.7.1.4.1.37466.2.2 83:d=5 hl=2 l= 4 prim: UTF8STRING :8001 89:d=2 hl=2 l= 89 cons: SEQUENCE 91:d=3 hl=2 l= 19 cons: SEQUENCE 93:d=4 hl=2 l= 7 prim: OBJECT :id-ecPublicKey 102:d=4 hl=2 l= 8 prim: OBJECT :prime256v1 Am I missing something here? Do I need to provide the CN in a different way to get the intended result? I found an open issue https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/issues/4886, could it be related to this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks and Regards, Aditya

MbedTLS crashes with some websites in mbedtls_mpi_free()

by Peter

Hi All, Some websites crash MbedTLS, in void mbedtls_ecp_point_free( mbedtls_ecp_point *pt ) { if( pt == NULL ) return; mbedtls_mpi_free( &( pt->X ) ); mbedtls_mpi_free( &( pt->Y ) ); mbedtls_mpi_free( &( pt->Z ) ); } It crashes in the last function call of the three above. Thread #1 [main] 1 [core: 0] (Suspended : Signal : SIGTRAP:Trace/breakpoint trap) HardFault_Handler() at stm32f4xx_it.c:103 0x8053c22 <signal handler called>() at 0xffffffed 0x3810180 mbedtls_ecp_point_free() at ecp.c:594 0x8029c7a 0x81030100 It crashes properly i.e. invalid opcodes etc. There is a fair bit on google with others having gone down the same road, never resolved. One site which does it is socata.org but quite a few others do it. Probably 10% of "major name" websites cause it to crash. It may have been undiscovered for a long time, or ever, because most MbedTLS clients are connecting to specific private servers only. People aren't using it to connect to microsoft.com (which doesn't actually crash but the handshake returns 0x2700 which can be investigated). There is a Windows build of MbedTLS (v2.16.2) which seems to work in the crashing cases. Stepping through this in Cube IDE (32F417) it looks like the crash is due to a buffer being filled with random numbers. The guy working on this is contactable only on Monday afternoons so I am a bit screwed :) He said he found something about that buffer, or maybe a corrupted function pointer. But as I said this issue has come up before according to numerous online searches and maybe someone can recognise it. Hardware AES is enabled but this occurs with software AES also. No other 32F417 hardware crypto features are used, other than its random number generator. TLS is v2.16.2. Thank you in advance for any pointers. Peter

Code style discussions

by David Horstmann

Hi All, Mbed TLS is planning to move to a new code style by the end of this year. The proposed new style is currently being discussed in the GitHub pull request: https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/pull/6591 If you have any feedback on this new style, or you think we should tweak it, feel free to comment on the pull request. We will take your thoughts into account when we decide on the final style. Discussions will continue until the evening of THIS FRIDAY (UK time). Many thanks, David Horstmann for the Mbed TLS Team

Certificate Verify in Client Authentication does not work as expected

by Simon Nachtigall

Hello everyone, We observed a strange behavior in the mbedTLS client, when client authentication is requested by the TLS server. This behavior was observed in the newer version 3.0.0 as well as in older versions. The scenario is the following: The server selects a ciphersuite e.g. ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 and sends a CertificateRequest message that only includes the ecdsa_secp256r1_sha256 signature algorithm. However, the mbedTLS client simply ignores the requested hash function and uses ecdsa_secp256r1_sha384 for the signature in the ClientVerify. Then, the server complains since the signature does not match with the requested signature algorithm and sends a handshake failure. It seems that mbedTLS does not store the requested signature algorithms/hash function from the CertificateRequest and always uses the hash function from the selected ciphersuite. In the ssl_write_certificate_verify function, we find the following comment: /* * digitally-signed struct { * opaque handshake_messages[handshake_messages_length]; * }; * * Taking shortcut here. We assume that the server always allows the * PRF Hash function and has sent it in the allowed signature * algorithms list received in the Certificate Request message. * * Until we encounter a server that does not, we will take this * shortcut. * * Reason: Otherwise we should have running hashes for SHA512 and * SHA224 in order to satisfy 'weird' needs from the server * side. */ Is this a known problem and is there any fix available? Cheers, Simon Nachtigall
