This is from the morally 5th (and soon obsolete) invocation of this function
in verify_top().
Doing this badtime-skipping when we search for a parent in the provided chain
is a change of behaviour, but it's backwards-compatible: it can only cause us
to accept valid chains that we used to reject before. Eg if the peer has a
chain with two version of an intermediate certificate with different validity
periods, the first non valid and the second valid - such cases are probably
rare or users would have complained already, but it doesn't hurt to handle it
properly as it allows for more uniform code.
This may look like a behaviour change because one check has been added to the
function that was previously done in only one of the 3 call sites. However it
is not, because:
- for the 2 call sites in verify(), the test always succeeds as path_cnt is 0.
- for the call site in verify_child(), the same test was done later anyway in
verify_top()
There are 3 instance that were replaced, but 2 instances of variants of this
function exist and will be handled next (the extra parameter that isn't used
so far is in preparation for that):
- one in verify_child() where path_cnt constraint is handled too
- one in verify_top() where there is extra logic to skip parents that are
expired or future, but only if there are better parents to be found
This is a slight change of behaviour in that the previous condition was:
- same subject
- signature matches
while the new condition is:
- exact same certificate
However the documentation for mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (note on trust_ca)
mentions the new condition, so code that respected the documentation will keep
working.
In addition, this is a bit faster as it doesn't check the self-signature
(which never needs to be checked for certs in the trusted list).
When we're looking for a parent, in trusted CAs, 'top' should be 1.
This only impacted which call site for verify_top() was chosen, and the error
was then fixed inside verify_top() by iterating over CAs again, this time
correctly setting 'top' to 1.
This is the beginning of a series of commits refactoring the chain
building/verification functions in order to:
- make it simpler to understand and work with
- prepare integration of restartable ECC
md() already checks for md_info == NULL. Also, in the future it might also
return other errors (eg hardware errors if acceleration is used), so it make
more sense to check its return value than to check for NULL ourselves and then
assume no other error can occur.
Also, currently, md_info == NULL can never happen except if the MD and OID modules
get out of sync, or if the user messes with members of the x509_crt structure
directly.
This commit does not change the current behaviour, which is to treat MD errors
the same way as a bad signature or no trusted root.
There were preprocessor directives in pk.c and pk_wrap.c that cheked
whether the bit length of size_t was greater than that of unsigned int.
However, the check relied on the MBEDTLS_HAVE_INT64 macro being defined
which is not directly related to size_t. This might result in errors in
some platforms. This change modifies the check to use the macros
SIZE_MAX and UINT_MAX instead making the code more robust.
As noted in #557, several functions use 'index' resp. 'time'
as parameter names in their declaration and/or definition, causing name
conflicts with the functions in the C standard library of the same
name some compilers warn about.
This commit renames the arguments accordingly.
Modify the function mbedtls_x509_csr_parse_der() so that it checks the
parsed CSR version integer before it increments the value. This prevents
a potential signed integer overflow, as these have undefined behaviour
in the C standard.
Rename the macro MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETUP_ALT to
MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETUP_TEARDOWN_ALT to make the name more descriptive
as this macro enables/disables both functions.
Add the following two functions to allow platform setup and teardown
operations for the full library to be hooked in:
* mbedtls_platform_setup()
* mbedtls_platform_teardown()
An mbedtls_platform_context C structure is also added and two internal
functions that are called by the corresponding setup and teardown
functions above:
* mbedtls_internal_platform_setup()
* mbedtls_internal_plartform_teardown()
Finally, the macro MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETUP_ALT is also added to allow
mbedtls_platform_context and internal function to be overriden by the
user as needed for a platform.
The previous commit bd5ceee484f201b90a384636ba12de86bd330cba removed
the definition of the global constants
- mbedtls_test_ca_crt_rsa_len,
- mbedtls_test_cli_crt_rsa_len,
- mbedtls_test_ca_crt_rsa, and
- mbedtls_test_cli_crt_rsa.
This commit restores these to maintain ABI compatibility.
Further, it was noticed that without SHA256_C being enabled the
previous code failed to compile because because the SHA1 resp. SHA256
certificates were only defined when the respective SHAXXX_C options
were set, but the emission of the global variable mbedtls_test_ca_crt
was unconditionally defined through the SHA256
certificate. Previously, the RSA SHA1 certificate was unconditionally
defined and used for that.
As a remedy, this commit makes sure some RSA certificate is defined
and exported through the following rule:
1. If SHA256_C is active, define an RSA SHA256 certificate and export
it as mbedtls_test_ca_crt. Also, define SHA1 certificates only if
SHA1_C is set.
2. If SHA256_C is not set, always define SHA1 certificate and export
it as mbedtls_test_ca_crt.
Fix a resource leak on windows platform, in mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_path,
in case a failure. when an error occurs, goto cleanup, and free the
resource, instead of returning error code immediately.
Protecting the ECP hardware acceleratior with mutexes is inconsistent with the
philosophy of the library. Pre-existing hardware accelerator interfaces
leave concurrency support to the underlying platform.

The RSA key generation test needs strong entropy to succeed. This commit captures the presence of a strong entropy
source in a preprocessor flag and only runs the key generation test if that flag is set.
