This commit modifies ssl_decrypt_buf() and ssl_encrypt_buf()
to include the CID into authentication data during record
protection.
It does not yet implement the new DTLSInnerPlaintext format
from https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-04
When using this function to deserialize, it's not a problem to have a session
structure as input as we'll have one around anyway (most probably freshly
deserialised).
However for tests it's convenient to be able to build a transform without
having a session structure around.
Also, removing this structure from parameters makes the function signature
more uniform, the only exception left being the ssl param at the end that's
hard to avoid for now.
Configs with no DEBUG_C are use for example in test-ref-configs.pl, which also
runs parts of compat.sh or ssl-opt.sh on them, so the added 'ssl = NULL'
statements will be exercised in those tests at least.
Make it more explicit what's used. Unfortunately, we still need ssl as a
parameter for debugging, and because calc_verify wants it as a parameter (for
all TLS versions except SSL3 it would actually only need handshake, but SSL3
also accesses session_negotiate).
It's also because of calc_verify that we can't make it const yet, but see next
commit.
This commit adds tests exercising mutually inverse pairs of
record encryption and decryption transformations for the various
transformation types allowed in TLS: Stream, CBC, and AEAD.
The hash contexts `ssl_transform->md_ctx_{enc/dec}` are not used if
only AEAD ciphersuites are enabled. This commit removes them from the
`ssl_transform` struct in this case, saving a few bytes.
This commit guards code specific to AEAD, CBC and stream cipher modes
in `ssl_derive_keys` by the respective configuration flags, analogous
to the guards that are already in place in the record decryption and
encryption functions `ssl_decrypt_buf` resp. `ssl_decrypt_buf`.
Analogous to the previous commit, but concerning the record decryption
routine `ssl_decrypt_buf`.
An important change regards the checking of CBC padding:
Prior to this commit, the CBC padding check always read 256 bytes at
the end of the internal record buffer, almost always going past the
boundaries of the record under consideration. In order to stay within
the bounds of the given record, this commit changes this behavior by
always reading the last min(256, plaintext_len) bytes of the record
plaintext buffer and taking into consideration the last `padlen` of
these for the padding check. With this change, the memory access
pattern and runtime of the padding check is entirely determined by
the size of the encrypted record, in particular not giving away
any information on the validity of the padding.
The following depicts the different behaviors:

The previous version of the record encryption function
`ssl_encrypt_buf` takes the entire SSL context as an argument,
while intuitively, it should only depend on the current security
parameters and the record buffer.
Analyzing the exact dependencies, it turned out that in addition
to the currently active `ssl_transform` instance and the record
information, the encryption function needs access to
- the negotiated protocol version, and
- the status of the encrypt-then-MAC extension.
This commit moves these two fields into `ssl_transform` and
changes the signature of `ssl_encrypt_buf` to only use an instance
of `ssl_transform` and an instance of the new `ssl_record` type.
The `ssl_context` instance is *solely* kept for the debugging macros
which need an SSL context instance.
The benefit of the change is twofold:
1) It avoids the need of the MPS to deal with instances of
`ssl_context`. The MPS should only work with records and
opaque security parameters, which is what the change in
this commit makes progress towards.
2) It significantly eases testing of the encryption function:
independent of any SSL context, the encryption function can
be passed some record buffer to encrypt alongside some arbitrary
choice of parameters, and e.g. be checked to not overflow the
provided memory.
The macro constant `MBEDTLS_SSL_MAC_ADD` defined in `ssl_internal.h`
defines an upper bound for the amount of space needed for the record
authentication tag. Its definition distinguishes between the
presence of an ARC4 or CBC ciphersuite suite, in which case the maximum
size of an enabled SHA digest is used; otherwise, `MBEDTLS_SSL_MAC_ADD`
is set to 16 to accomodate AEAD authentication tags.
This assignment has a flaw in the situation where confidentiality is
not needed and the NULL cipher is in use. In this case, the
authentication tag also uses a SHA digest, but the definition of
`MBEDTLS_SSL_MAC_ADD` doesn't guarantee enough space.
The present commit fixes this by distinguishing between the presence
of *some* ciphersuite using a MAC, including those using a NULL cipher.
For that, the previously internal macro `SSL_SOME_MODES_USE_MAC` from
`ssl_tls.c` is renamed and moved to the public macro
`MBEDTLS_SOME_MODES_USE_MAC` defined in `ssl_internal.h`.
Prior to this commit, the security parameter struct `ssl_transform`
contained a `ciphersuite_info` field pointing to the information
structure for the negotiated ciphersuite. However, the only
information extracted from that structure that was used in the core
encryption and decryption functions `ssl_encrypt_buf`/`ssl_decrypt_buf`
was the authentication tag length in case of an AEAD cipher.
The present commit removes the `ciphersuite_info` field from the
`ssl_transform` structure and adds an explicit `taglen` field
for AEAD authentication tag length.
This is in accordance with the principle that the `ssl_transform`
structure should contain the raw parameters needed for the record
encryption and decryption functions to work, but not the higher-level
information that gave rise to them. For example, the `ssl_transform`
structure implicitly contains the encryption/decryption keys within
their cipher contexts, but it doesn't contain the SSL master or
premaster secrets. Likewise, it contains an explicit `maclen`, while
the status of the 'Truncated HMAC' extension -- which determines the
value of `maclen` when the `ssl_transform` structure is created in
`ssl_derive_keys` -- is not contained in `ssl_transform`.
The `ciphersuite_info` pointer was used in other places outside
the encryption/decryption functions during the handshake, and for
these functions to work, this commit adds a `ciphersuite_info` pointer
field to the handshake-local `ssl_handshake_params` structure.
The `ssl_transform` security parameter structure contains opaque
cipher contexts for use by the record encryption/decryption functions
`ssl_decrypt_buf`/`ssl_encrypt_buf`, while the underlying key material
is configured once in `ssl_derive_keys` and is not explicitly dealt with
anymore afterwards. In particular, the key length is not needed
explicitly by the encryption/decryption functions but is nonetheless
stored in an explicit yet superfluous `keylen` field in `ssl_transform`.
This commit removes this field.
The SSL module accesses ECDH context members directly. This can't work
with the new context, where we can't make any assumption about the
implementation of the context.
This commit makes use of the new functions to avoid accessing ECDH
members directly. The only members that are still accessed directly are
the group ID and the point format and they are independent from the
implementation.
ssl_write_handshake_msg() includes the assertion that
`ssl->handshake != NULL` when handling a record which is
(a) a handshake message, and NOT
(b) a HelloRequest.
However, it later calls `ssl_append_flight()` for any
record different from a HelloRequest handshake record,
that is, records satisfying !(a) || !(b), instead of
(a) && !(b) as covered by the assertion (specifically,
CCS or Alert records).
Since `ssl_append_flight()` assumes that `ssl->handshake != NULL`,
this rightfully triggers static analyzer warnings.
This commit expands the scope of the assertion to check
that `ssl->handshake != NULL` for any record which is not
a HelloRequest.
This commit changes the behavior of the record decryption routine
`ssl_decrypt_buf()` in the following situation:
1. A CBC ciphersuite with Encrypt-then-MAC is used.
2. A record with valid MAC but invalid CBC padding is received.
In this situation, the previous code would not raise and error but
instead forward the decrypted packet, including the wrong padding,
to the user.
This commit changes this behavior to return the error
MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INVALID_MAC instead.
While erroneous, the previous behavior does not constitute a
security flaw since it can only happen for properly authenticated
records, that is, if the peer makes a mistake while preparing the
padded plaintext.
