2
David Horstmannea44fa72024-08-28 20:49:08 +01003= Mbed TLS 3.6.1 branch released 2024-08-30
David Horstmann9cf929d2024-08-28 20:48:36 +01004
5API changes
6 * The experimental functions psa_generate_key_ext() and
7 psa_key_derivation_output_key_ext() are no longer declared when compiling
8 in C++. This resolves a build failure under C++ compilers that do not
9 support flexible array members (a C99 feature not adopted by C++).
10 Fixes #9020.
11
12Default behavior changes
13 * In a PSA-client-only build (i.e. MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CLIENT &&
14 !MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C), do not automatically enable local crypto when the
15 corresponding PSA mechanism is enabled, since the server provides the
16 crypto. Fixes #9126.
David Horstmann4c8ca722024-08-28 20:58:24 +010017 * A TLS handshake may now call psa_crypto_init() if TLS 1.3 is enabled.
18 This can happen even if TLS 1.3 is offered but eventually not selected
19 in the protocol version negotiation.
20 * By default, the handling of TLS 1.3 tickets by the Mbed TLS client is now
21 disabled at runtime. Applications that were using TLS 1.3 tickets
22 signalled by MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_RECEIVED_NEW_SESSION_TICKET return values now
23 need to enable the handling of TLS 1.3 tickets through the new
24 mbedtls_ssl_conf_tls13_enable_signal_new_session_tickets() API.
David Horstmann9cf929d2024-08-28 20:48:36 +010025
26New deprecations
27 * The experimental functions psa_generate_key_ext() and
28 psa_key_derivation_output_key_ext() are deprecated in favor of
29 psa_generate_key_custom() and psa_key_derivation_output_key_custom().
30 They have almost exactly the same interface, but the variable-length
31 data is passed in a separate parameter instead of a flexible array
32 member.
33 * The following cryptographic mechanisms are planned to be removed
34 in Mbed TLS 4.0:
35 - DES (including 3DES).
36 - PKCS#1v1.5 encryption/decryption (RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5).
37 (OAEP, PSS, and PKCS#1v1.5 signature are staying.)
38 - Finite-field Diffie-Hellman with custom groups.
39 (RFC 7919 groups remain supported.)
40 - Elliptic curves of size 225 bits or less.
41 * The following cipher suites are planned to be removed from (D)TLS 1.2
42 in Mbed TLS 4.0:
43 - TLS_RSA_* (including TLS_RSA_PSK_*), i.e. cipher suites using
44 RSA decryption.
45 (RSA signatures, i.e. TLS_ECDHE_RSA_*, are staying.)
46 - TLS_ECDH_*, i.e. cipher suites using static ECDH.
47 (Ephemeral ECDH, i.e. TLS_ECDHE_*, is staying.)
48 - TLS_DHE_*, i.e. cipher suites using finite-field Diffie-Hellman.
49 (Ephemeral ECDH, i.e. TLS_ECDHE_*, is staying.)
50 - TLS_*CBC*, i.e. all cipher suites using CBC.
51 * The following low-level application interfaces are planned to be removed
52 from the public API in Mbed TLS 4.0:
53 - Hashes: hkdf.h, md5.h, ripemd160.h, sha1.h, sha3.h, sha256.h, sha512.h;
54 - Random generation: ctr_drbg.h, hmac_drbg.h, entropy.h;
55 - Ciphers and modes: aes.h, aria.h, camellia.h, chacha20.h, chachapoly.h,
56 cipher.h, cmac.h, gcm.h, poly1305.h;
57 - Private key encryption mechanisms: pkcs5.h, pkcs12.h.
58 - Asymmetric cryptography: bignum.h, dhm.h, ecdh.h, ecdsa.h, ecjpake.h,
59 ecp.h, rsa.h.
60 The cryptographic mechanisms remain present, but they will only be
61 accessible via the PSA API (psa_xxx functions introduced gradually
62 starting with Mbed TLS 2.17) and, where relevant, `pk.h`.
63 For guidance on migrating application code to the PSA API, please consult
64 the PSA transition guide (docs/psa-transition.md).
65 * The following integration interfaces are planned to be removed
66 in Mbed TLS 4.0:
67 - MBEDTLS_xxx_ALT replacement of cryptographic modules and functions.
68 Use PSA transparent drivers instead.
69 - MBEDTLS_PK_RSA_ALT and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C.
70 Use PSA opaque drivers instead.
71
72Features
73 * When the new compilation option MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_STORE_DYNAMIC is enabled,
74 the number of volatile PSA keys is virtually unlimited, at the expense
75 of increased code size. This option is off by default, but enabled in
76 the default mbedtls_config.h. Fixes #9216.
77
78Security
79 * Unlike previously documented, enabling MBEDTLS_PSA_HMAC_DRBG_MD_TYPE does
80 not cause the PSA subsystem to use HMAC_DRBG: it uses HMAC_DRBG only when
81 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG and MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_C are disabled.
David Horstmannfedf9a22024-08-28 19:04:26 +010082 CVE-2024-45157
David Horstmann9cf929d2024-08-28 20:48:36 +010083 * Fix a stack buffer overflow in mbedtls_ecdsa_der_to_raw() and
84 mbedtls_ecdsa_raw_to_der() when the bits parameter is larger than the
85 largest supported curve. In some configurations with PSA disabled,
86 all values of bits are affected. This never happens in internal library
87 calls, but can affect applications that call these functions directly.
David Horstmannfedf9a22024-08-28 19:04:26 +010088 CVE-2024-45158
David Horstmann9cf929d2024-08-28 20:48:36 +010089 * With TLS 1.3, when a server enables optional authentication of the
90 client, if the client-provided certificate does not have appropriate values
91 in keyUsage or extKeyUsage extensions, then the return value of
92 mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result() would incorrectly have the
93 MBEDTLS_X509_BADCERT_KEY_USAGE and MBEDTLS_X509_BADCERT_EXT_KEY_USAGE bits
94 clear. As a result, an attacker that had a certificate valid for uses other
95 than TLS client authentication could be able to use it for TLS client
96 authentication anyway. Only TLS 1.3 servers were affected, and only with
97 optional authentication (required would abort the handshake with a fatal
98 alert).
David Horstmannfedf9a22024-08-28 19:04:26 +010099 CVE-2024-45159
David Horstmann9cf929d2024-08-28 20:48:36 +0100100
101Bugfix
102 * Fix TLS 1.3 client build and runtime when support for session tickets is
103 disabled (MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS configuration option). Fixes #6395.
104 * Fix compilation error when memcpy() is a function-like macros. Fixes #8994.
105 * MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C and MBEDTLS_ASN1_WRITE_C are now automatically enabled
106 as soon as MBEDTLS_RSA_C is enabled. Fixes #9041.
107 * Fix undefined behaviour (incrementing a NULL pointer by zero length) when
108 passing in zero length additional data to multipart AEAD.
109 * Fix rare concurrent access bug where attempting to operate on a
110 non-existent key while concurrently creating a new key could potentially
111 corrupt the key store.
112 * Fix error handling when creating a key in a dynamic secure element
113 (feature enabled by MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C). In a low memory condition,
114 the creation could return PSA_SUCCESS but using or destroying the key
115 would not work. Fixes #8537.
116 * Fix issue of redefinition warning messages for _GNU_SOURCE in
117 entropy_poll.c and sha_256.c. There was a build warning during
118 building for linux platform.
119 Resolves #9026
120 * Fix a compilation warning in pk.c when PSA is enabled and RSA is disabled.
121 * Fix the build when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is enabled and the built-in
122 CMAC is enabled, but no built-in unauthenticated cipher is enabled.
123 Fixes #9209.
124 * Fix redefinition warnings when SECP192R1 and/or SECP192K1 are disabled.
125 Fixes #9029.
126 * Fix psa_cipher_decrypt() with CCM* rejecting messages less than 3 bytes
127 long. Credit to Cryptofuzz. Fixes #9314.
128 * Fix interference between PSA volatile keys and built-in keys
129 when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_BUILTIN_KEYS is enabled and
130 MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT is more than 4096.
131 * Document and enforce the limitation of mbedtls_psa_register_se_key()
132 to persistent keys. Resolves #9253.
133 * Fix Clang compilation error when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled
134 but MBEDTLS_DHM_C is disabled. Reported by Michael Schuster in #9188.
135 * Fix server mode only build when MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_C is enabled but
136 MBEDTLS_SSL_CLI_C is disabled. Reported by M-Bab on GitHub in #9186.
137 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C was disabled and MBEDTLS_ECDSA_C enabled,
138 some code was defining 0-size arrays, resulting in compilation errors.
139 Fixed by disabling the offending code in configurations without PSA
140 Crypto, where it never worked. Fixes #9311.
141 * Fix unintended performance regression when using short RSA public keys.
142 Fixes #9232.
143 * Fixes an issue where some TLS 1.2 clients could not connect to an
144 Mbed TLS 3.6.0 server, due to incorrect handling of
145 legacy_compression_methods in the ClientHello.
146 Fixes #8995, #9243.
147 * Fix TLS connections failing when the handshake selects TLS 1.3
148 in an application that does not call psa_crypto_init().
149 Fixes #9072.
150 * Fix TLS connection failure in applications using an Mbed TLS client in
151 the default configuration connecting to a TLS 1.3 server sending tickets.
152 See the documentation of
153 mbedtls_ssl_conf_tls13_enable_signal_new_session_tickets() for more
154 information.
155 Fixes #8749.
156 * Fix a memory leak that could occur when failing to process an RSA
157 key through some PSA functions due to low memory conditions.
158 * Fixed a regression introduced in 3.6.0 where the CA callback set with
159 mbedtls_ssl_conf_ca_cb() would stop working when connections were
160 upgraded to TLS 1.3. Fixed by adding support for the CA callback with TLS
161 1.3.
162 * Fixed a regression introduced in 3.6.0 where clients that relied on
163 optional/none authentication mode, by calling mbedtls_ssl_conf_authmode()
164 with MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_OPTIONAL or MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_NONE, would stop
165 working when connections were upgraded to TLS 1.3. Fixed by adding
166 support for optional/none with TLS 1.3 as well. Note that the TLS 1.3
167 standard makes server authentication mandatory; users are advised not to
168 use authmode none, and to carefully check the results when using optional
169 mode.
170 * Fixed a regression introduced in 3.6.0 where context-specific certificate
171 verify callbacks, set with mbedtls_ssl_set_verify() as opposed to
172 mbedtls_ssl_conf_verify(), would stop working when connections were
173 upgraded to TLS 1.3. Fixed by adding support for context-specific verify
174 callback in TLS 1.3.
175
176Changes
177 * Warn if mbedtls/check_config.h is included manually, as this can
178 lead to spurious errors. Error if a *adjust*.h header is included
179 manually, as this can lead to silently inconsistent configurations,
180 potentially resulting in buffer overflows.
181 When migrating from Mbed TLS 2.x, if you had a custom config.h that
182 included check_config.h, remove this inclusion from the Mbed TLS 3.x
183 configuration file (renamed to mbedtls_config.h). This change was made
184 in Mbed TLS 3.0, but was not announced in a changelog entry at the time.
David Horstmann9cf929d2024-08-28 20:48:36 +0100185
Minos Galanakis4492dbd2024-03-21 15:52:49 +0000186= Mbed TLS 3.6.0 branch released 2024-03-28
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000187
188API changes
189 * Remove `tls13_` in mbedtls_ssl_tls13_conf_early_data() and
190 mbedtls_ssl_tls13_conf_max_early_data_size() API names. Early data
191 feature may not be TLS 1.3 specific in the future. Fixes #6909.
192
193Default behavior changes
194 * psa_import_key() now only accepts RSA keys in the PSA standard formats.
195 The undocumented ability to import other formats (PKCS#8, SubjectPublicKey,
196 PEM) accepted by the pkparse module has been removed. Applications that
197 need these formats can call mbedtls_pk_parse_{public,}key() followed by
198 mbedtls_pk_import_into_psa().
199
200Requirement changes
201 * Drop support for Visual Studio 2013 and 2015, and Arm Compiler 5.
202
203New deprecations
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000204 * Rename the MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_xxx config options to
205 MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_ARMV8_A_CRYPTO_xxx. The old names may still
206 be used, but are deprecated.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000207 * In the PSA API, domain parameters are no longer used for anything.
208 They are deprecated and will be removed in a future version of the
209 library.
210 * mbedtls_ecp_write_key() is deprecated in favor of
211 mbedtls_ecp_write_key_ext().
212
213Removals
214 * In the PSA API, the experimental way to encode the public exponent of
215 an RSA key as a domain parameter is no longer supported. Use
216 psa_generate_key_ext() instead.
217 * Temporary function mbedtls_pk_wrap_as_opaque() is removed. To mimic the
218 same behavior mbedtls_pk_get_psa_attributes() and
219 mbedtls_pk_import_into_psa() can be used to import a PK key into PSA,
220 while mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque() can be used to wrap a PSA key into a opaque
221 PK context.
222
223Features
224 * Added an example program showing how to hash with the PSA API.
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000225 * Support Armv8-A Crypto Extension acceleration for SHA-256
226 when compiling for Thumb (T32) or 32-bit Arm (A32).
227 * AES-NI is now supported in Windows builds with clang and clang-cl.
228 Resolves #8372.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000229 * Add new mbedtls_x509_csr_parse_der_with_ext_cb() routine which allows
230 parsing unsupported certificate extensions via user provided callback.
231 * Enable the new option MBEDTLS_BLOCK_CIPHER_NO_DECRYPT to omit
232 the decryption direction of block ciphers (AES, ARIA, Camellia).
233 This affects both the low-level modules and the high-level APIs
234 (the cipher and PSA interfaces). This option is incompatible with modes
235 that use the decryption direction (ECB in PSA, CBC, XTS, KW) and with DES.
236 * Support use of Armv8-A Cryptographic Extensions for hardware acclerated
237 AES when compiling for Thumb (T32) or 32-bit Arm (A32).
238 * If a cipher or AEAD mechanism has a PSA driver, you can now build the
239 library without the corresponding built-in implementation. Generally
240 speaking that requires both the key type and algorithm to be accelerated
241 or they'll both be built in. However, for CCM and GCM the built-in
242 implementation is able to take advantage of a driver that only
243 accelerates the key type (that is, the block cipher primitive). See
244 docs/driver-only-builds.md for full details and current limitations.
245 * The CTR_DRBG module will now use AES from a PSA driver if MBEDTLS_AES_C is
246 disabled. This requires PSA_WANT_ALG_ECB_NO_PADDING in addition to
247 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C and PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_AES.
248 * Fewer modules depend on MBEDTLS_CIPHER_C, making it possible to save code
249 size by disabling it in more circumstances. In particular, the CCM and
250 GCM modules no longer depend on MBEDTLS_CIPHER_C. Also,
251 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO can now be enabled without MBEDTLS_CIPHER_C if all
252 unauthenticated (non-AEAD) ciphers are disabled, or if they're all
253 fully provided by drivers. See docs/driver-only-builds.md for full
254 details and current limitations; in particular, NIST_KW and PKCS5/PKCS12
255 decryption still unconditionally depend on MBEDTLS_CIPHER_C.
256 * Add support for record size limit extension as defined by RFC 8449
257 and configured with MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_SIZE_LIMIT.
258 Application data sent and received will be fragmented according to
259 Record size limits negotiated during handshake.
260 * Improve performance of AES-GCM, AES-CTR and CTR-DRBG when
261 hardware accelerated AES is not present (around 13-23% on 64-bit Arm).
262 * Add functions mbedtls_ecc_group_to_psa() and mbedtls_ecc_group_from_psa()
263 to convert between Mbed TLS and PSA curve identifiers.
264 * Add utility functions to manipulate mbedtls_ecp_keypair objects, filling
265 gaps made by making its fields private: mbedtls_ecp_set_public_key(),
266 mbedtls_ecp_write_public_key(), mbedtls_ecp_keypair_calc_public(),
267 mbedtls_ecp_keypair_get_group_id(). Fixes #5017, #5441, #8367, #8652.
268 * Add functions mbedtls_md_psa_alg_from_type() and
269 mbedtls_md_type_from_psa_alg() to convert between mbedtls_md_type_t and
270 psa_algorithm_t.
271 * Add partial platform support for z/OS.
272 * Improve performance for gcc (versions older than 9.3.0) and IAR.
273 * Add functions mbedtls_ecdsa_raw_to_der() and mbedtls_ecdsa_der_to_raw() to
274 convert ECDSA signatures between raw and DER (ASN.1) formats.
275 * Add support for using AES-CBC 128, 192, and 256 bit schemes
276 with PKCS#5 PBES2. Keys encrypted this way can now be parsed by PK parse.
277 * The new function mbedtls_rsa_get_bitlen() returns the length of the modulus
278 in bits, i.e. the key size for an RSA key.
279 * Add pc files for pkg-config, e.g.:
280 pkg-config --cflags --libs (mbedtls|mbedcrypto|mbedx509)
281 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_session_get_ticket_creation_time()) to access
282 `mbedtls_ssl_session.ticket_creation_time`.
283 * The new functions mbedtls_pk_get_psa_attributes() and
284 mbedtls_pk_import_into_psa() provide a uniform way to create a PSA
285 key from a PK key.
286 * The benchmark program now reports times for both ephemeral and static
287 ECDH in all ECDH configurations.
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000288 * Add support for 8-bit GCM tables for Shoup's algorithm to speedup GCM
289 operations when hardware accelerated AES is not present. Improves
290 performance by around 30% on 64-bit Intel; 125% on Armv7-M.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000291 * The new function psa_generate_key_ext() allows generating an RSA
292 key pair with a custom public exponent.
293 * The new function mbedtls_ecp_write_key_ext() is similar to
294 mbedtls_ecp_write_key(), but can be used without separately calculating
295 the output length.
296 * Add new accessor to expose the private group id member of
297 `mbedtls_ecdh_context` structure.
298 * Add new accessor to expose the `MBEDTLS_PRIVATE(ca_istrue)` member of
299 `mbedtls_x509_crt` structure. This requires setting
300 the MBEDTLS_X509_EXT_BASIC_CONSTRAINTS bit in the certificate's
301 ext_types field.
302 * mbedtls_psa_get_random() is always available as soon as
303 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CLIENT is enabled at build time and psa_crypto_init() is
304 called at runtime. This together with MBEDTLS_PSA_RANDOM_STATE can be
305 used as random number generator function (f_rng) and context (p_rng) in
306 legacy functions.
307 * The new functions mbedtls_pk_copy_from_psa() and
308 mbedtls_pk_copy_public_from_psa() provide ways to set up a PK context
309 with the same content as a PSA key.
310 * Add new accessors to expose the private session-id,
311 session-id length, and ciphersuite-id members of
312 `mbedtls_ssl_session` structure.
313 Add new accessor to expose the ciphersuite-id of
314 `mbedtls_ssl_ciphersuite_t` structure.Design ref: #8529
315 * Mbed TLS now supports the writing and reading of TLS 1.3 early data (see
316 docs/tls13-early-data.md). The support enablement is controlled at build
317 time by the MBEDTLS_SSL_EARLY_DATA configuration option and at runtime by
318 the mbedtls_ssl_conf_early_data() API (by default disabled in both cases).
319 * Add protection for multithreaded access to the PSA keystore and protection
320 for multithreaded access to the the PSA global state, including
321 concurrently calling psa_crypto_init() when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C and
322 MBEDTLS_THREADING_PTHREAD are defined. See
323 docs/architecture/psa-thread-safety/psa-thread-safety.md for more details.
324 Resolves issues #3263 and #7945.
325
326Security
327 * Fix a stack buffer overread (less than 256 bytes) when parsing a TLS 1.3
328 ClientHello in a TLS 1.3 server supporting some PSK key exchange mode. A
329 malicious client could cause information disclosure or a denial of service.
Ronald Cron68613a42024-05-02 15:36:16 +0200330 Fixes CVE-2024-30166.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000331 * Passing buffers that are stored in untrusted memory as arguments
332 to PSA functions is now secure by default.
333 The PSA core now protects against modification of inputs or exposure
334 of intermediate outputs during operations. This is currently implemented
335 by copying buffers.
336 This feature increases code size and memory usage. If buffers passed to
337 PSA functions are owned exclusively by the PSA core for the duration of
338 the function call (i.e. no buffer parameters are in shared memory),
339 copying may be disabled by setting MBEDTLS_PSA_ASSUME_EXCLUSIVE_BUFFERS.
340 Note that setting this option will cause input-output buffer overlap to
341 be only partially supported (#3266).
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000342 Fixes CVE-2024-28960.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000343 * Restore the maximum TLS version to be negotiated to the configured one
344 when an SSL context is reset with the mbedtls_ssl_session_reset() API.
345 An attacker was able to prevent an Mbed TLS server from establishing any
346 TLS 1.3 connection potentially resulting in a Denial of Service or forced
347 version downgrade from TLS 1.3 to TLS 1.2. Fixes #8654 reported by hey3e.
348 Fixes CVE-2024-28755.
349 * When negotiating TLS version on server side, do not fall back to the
350 TLS 1.2 implementation of the protocol if it is disabled.
351 - If the TLS 1.2 implementation was disabled at build time, a TLS 1.2
352 client could put the TLS 1.3-only server in an infinite loop processing
353 a TLS 1.2 ClientHello, resulting in a denial of service. Reported by
354 Matthias Mucha and Thomas Blattmann, SICK AG.
355 - If the TLS 1.2 implementation was disabled at runtime, a TLS 1.2 client
356 was able to successfully establish a TLS 1.2 connection with the server.
357 Reported by alluettiv on GitHub.
358 Fixes CVE-2024-28836.
359
360Bugfix
361 * Fix the build with CMake when Everest or P256-m is enabled through
362 a user configuration file or the compiler command line. Fixes #8165.
363 * Fix compilation error in C++ programs when MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is
364 disabled.
365 * Fix possible NULL dereference issue in X509 cert_req program if an entry
366 in the san parameter is not separated by a colon.
367 * Fix possible NULL dereference issue in X509 cert_write program if an entry
368 in the san parameter is not separated by a colon.
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000369 * Fix an inconsistency between implementations and usages of `__cpuid`,
370 which mainly causes failures when building Windows target using
371 mingw or clang. Fixes #8334 & #8332.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000372 * Fix build failure in conda-forge. Fixes #8422.
373 * Fix parsing of CSRs with critical extensions.
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000374 * Switch to milliseconds as the unit for ticket creation and reception time
375 instead of seconds. That avoids rounding errors when computing the age of
376 tickets compared to peer using a millisecond clock (observed with GnuTLS).
377 Fixes #6623.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000378 * Fix TLS server accepting TLS 1.2 handshake while TLS 1.2
379 is disabled at runtime. Fixes #8593.
380 * Remove accidental introduction of RSA signature algorithms
381 in TLS Suite B Profile. Fixes #8221.
382 * Fix unsupported PSA asymmetric encryption and decryption
383 (psa_asymmetric_[en|de]crypt) with opaque keys.
384 Resolves #8461.
385 * On Linux on ARMv8, fix a build error with SHA-256 and SHA-512
386 acceleration detection when the libc headers do not define the
387 corresponding constant. Reported by valord577.
388 * Correct initial capacities for key derivation algorithms:TLS12_PRF,
389 TLS12_PSK_TO_MS, PBKDF2-HMAC, PBKDF2-CMAC
390 * Fix mbedtls_pk_get_bitlen() for RSA keys whose size is not a
391 multiple of 8. Fixes #868.
392 * Avoid segmentation fault caused by releasing not initialized
393 entropy resource in gen_key example. Fixes #8809.
394 * mbedtls_pem_read_buffer() now performs a check on the padding data of
395 decrypted keys and it rejects invalid ones.
396 * Fix mbedtls_pk_sign(), mbedtls_pk_verify(), mbedtls_pk_decrypt() and
397 mbedtls_pk_encrypt() on non-opaque RSA keys to honor the padding mode in
398 the RSA context. Before, if MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO was enabled and the
399 RSA context was configured for PKCS#1 v2.1 (PSS/OAEP), the sign/verify
400 functions performed a PKCS#1 v1.5 signature instead and the
401 encrypt/decrypt functions returned an error. Fixes #8824.
402 * Fix missing bitflags in SSL session serialization headers. Their absence
403 allowed SSL sessions saved in one configuration to be loaded in a
404 different, incompatible configuration.
405 * In TLS 1.3 clients, fix an interoperability problem due to the client
406 generating a new random after a HelloRetryRequest. Fixes #8669.
407 * Fix the restoration of the ALPN when loading serialized connection with
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000408 the mbedtls_ssl_context_load() API.
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000409 * Fix NULL pointer dereference in mbedtls_pk_verify_ext() when called using
410 an opaque RSA context and specifying MBEDTLS_PK_RSASSA_PSS as key type.
411 * Fix RSA opaque keys always using PKCS1 v1.5 algorithms instead of the
412 primary algorithm of the wrapped PSA key.
413 * Fully support arbitrary overlap between inputs and outputs of PSA
414 functions. Note that overlap is still only partially supported when
415 MBEDTLS_PSA_ASSUME_EXCLUSIVE_BUFFERS is set (#3266).
416
417Changes
418 * Use heap memory to allocate DER encoded public/private key.
419 This reduces stack usage significantly for writing a public/private
420 key to a PEM string.
Minos Galanakis8d94aec2024-03-22 16:00:18 +0000421 * PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM and PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG are no more synonyms and
422 they are now treated separately. This means that they should be
423 individually enabled in order to enable respective support; also the
424 corresponding MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL symbol should be defined in case
425 acceleration is required.
426 * Moved declaration of functions mbedtls_ecc_group_to_psa and
427 mbedtls_ecc_group_of_psa from psa/crypto_extra.h to mbedtls/psa_util.h
Minos Galanakis2c1daef2024-03-21 15:46:39 +0000428 * mbedtls_pk_sign_ext() is now always available, not just when
429 PSA (MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C) is enabled.
430 * Extended PSA Crypto configurations options for FFDH by making it possible
431 to select only some of the parameters / groups, with the macros
432 PSA_WANT_DH_RFC7919_XXXX. You now need to defined the corresponding macro
433 for each size you want to support. Also, if you have an FFDH accelerator,
434 you'll need to define the appropriate MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL macros to signal
435 support for these domain parameters.
436 * RSA support in PSA no longer auto-enables the pkparse and pkwrite modules,
437 saving code size when those are not otherwise enabled.
438 * mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod and code that uses it, notably RSA and DHM operations,
439 have changed their speed/memory compromise as part of a proactive security
440 improvement. The new default value of MBEDTLS_MPI_WINDOW_SIZE roughly
441 preserves the current speed, at the expense of increasing memory
442 consumption.
443 * Rename directory containing Visual Studio files from visualc/VS2013 to
444 visualc/VS2017.
445 * The TLS 1.3 protocol is now enabled in the default configuration.

448
449Security
450 * Fix a timing side channel in private key RSA operations. This side channel
451 could be sufficient for an attacker to recover the plaintext. A local
452 attacker or a remote attacker who is close to the victim on the network
453 might have precise enough timing measurements to exploit this. It requires
454 the attacker to send a large number of messages for decryption. For
455 details, see "Everlasting ROBOT: the Marvin Attack", Hubert Kario. Reported
456 by Hubert Kario, Red Hat.
457 * Fix a failure to validate input when writing x509 extensions lengths which
458 could result in an integer overflow, causing a zero-length buffer to be
459 allocated to hold the extension. The extension would then be copied into
460 the buffer, causing a heap buffer overflow.

470 in CMake.
471
Minos Galanakis974388f2023-10-03 22:07:22 +0100472= Mbed TLS 3.5.0 branch released 2023-10-05
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100473
474API changes
475 * Mbed TLS 3.4 introduced support for omitting the built-in implementation
476 of ECDSA and/or EC J-PAKE when those are provided by a driver. However,
Dave Rodgmanc0e1f3e2023-11-03 11:08:05 +0000477 there was a flaw in the logic checking if the built-in implementation, in
478 that it failed to check if all the relevant curves were supported by the
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100479 accelerator. As a result, it was possible to declare no curves as
480 accelerated and still have the built-in implementation compiled out.
481 Starting with this release, it is necessary to declare which curves are
482 accelerated (using MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_ECC_xxx macros), or they will be
483 considered not accelerated, and the built-in implementation of the curves
484 and any algorithm possible using them will be included in the build.
485 * Add new millisecond time type `mbedtls_ms_time_t` and `mbedtls_ms_time()`
486 function, needed for TLS 1.3 ticket lifetimes. Alternative implementations
487 can be created using an ALT interface.
488
489Requirement changes
490 * Officially require Python 3.8 now that earlier versions are out of support.
491 * Minimum required Windows version is now Windows Vista, or
492 Windows Server 2008.
493
494New deprecations
495 * PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR and
496 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR, where xxx is either ECC or RSA,
497 are now being deprecated in favor of PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
498 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy. Here yyy can be: BASIC,
499 IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE. The goal is to have a finer detail about
500 the capabilities of the PSA side for either key.
501 * MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX is deprecated in favor of
502 MBEDTLS_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH (if you intended what the name suggests:
503 maximum size of any supported block cipher) or the new name
504 MBEDTLS_CMAC_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE (if you intended the actual semantics:
505 maximum size of a block cipher supported by the CMAC module).
506 * mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() and mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() functions are now
507 deprecated in favor of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() and
508 mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext() as they offer more security by checking
509 for overflow of the output buffer and reporting the actual length
510 of the output.
511
512Features
513 * All modules that use hashes or HMAC can now take advantage of PSA Crypto
514 drivers when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is enabled and psa_crypto_init() has
515 been called. Previously (in 3.3), this was restricted to a few modules,
516 and only in builds where MBEDTLS_MD_C was disabled; in particular the
517 entropy module was not covered which meant an external RNG had to be
518 provided - these limitations are lifted in this version. A new set of
519 feature macros, MBEDTLS_MD_CAN_xxx, has been introduced that can be used
520 to check for availability of hash algorithms, regardless of whether
521 they're provided by a built-in implementation, a driver or both. See
522 docs/driver-only-builds.md.
523 * When a PSA driver for ECDH is present, it is now possible to disable
524 MBEDTLS_ECDH_C in the build in order to save code size. For TLS 1.2
525 key exchanges based on ECDH(E) to work, this requires
526 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO. Restartable/interruptible ECDHE operations in
527 TLS 1.2 (ECDHE-ECDSA key exchange) are not supported in those builds yet,
528 as PSA does not have an API for restartable ECDH yet.
529 * When all of ECDH, ECDSA and EC J-PAKE are either disabled or provided by
530 a driver, it is possible to disable MBEDTLS_ECP_C (and MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C
531 if not required by another module) and still get support for ECC keys and
532 algorithms in PSA, with some limitations. See docs/driver-only-builds.txt
533 for details.
534 * Add parsing of directoryName subtype for subjectAltName extension in
535 x509 certificates.
536 * Add support for server-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
537 TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled, the TLS server now selects TLS 1.2 or
538 TLS 1.3 depending on the capabilities and preferences of TLS clients.
539 Fixes #6867.
540 * X.509 hostname verification now supports IPAddress Subject Alternate Names.
541 * Add support for reading and writing X25519 and X448
542 public and private keys in RFC 8410 format using the existing PK APIs.
543 * When parsing X.509 certificates, support the extensions
544 SignatureKeyIdentifier and AuthorityKeyIdentifier.
545 * Don't include the PSA dispatch functions for PAKEs (psa_pake_setup() etc)
546 if no PAKE algorithms are requested
547 * Add support for the FFDH algorithm and DH key types in PSA, with
548 parameters from RFC 7919. This includes a built-in implementation based
549 on MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C, and a driver dispatch layer enabling alternative
550 implementations of FFDH through the driver entry points.
551 * It is now possible to generate certificates with SubjectAltNames.
552 Currently supported subtypes: DnsName, UniformResourceIdentifier,
553 IP address, OtherName, and DirectoryName, as defined in RFC 5280.
554 See mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_subject_alternative_name for
555 more information.
556 * X.509 hostname verification now partially supports URI Subject Alternate
557 Names. Only exact matching, without any normalization procedures
558 described in 7.4 of RFC5280, will result in a positive URI verification.
559 * Add function mbedtls_oid_from_numeric_string() to parse an OID from a
560 string to a DER-encoded mbedtls_asn1_buf.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100561 * Add SHA-3 family hash functions.
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100562 * Add support to restrict AES to 128-bit keys in order to save code size.
563 A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AES_ONLY_128_BIT_KEY_LENGTH, can be
564 used to enable this feature.
565 * AES performance improvements. Uplift varies by platform,
566 toolchain, optimisation flags and mode.
567 Aarch64, gcc -Os and CCM, GCM and XTS benefit the most.
568 On Aarch64, uplift is typically around 20 - 110%.
569 When compiling with gcc -Os on Aarch64, AES-XTS improves
570 by 4.5x.
571 * Add support for PBKDF2-HMAC through the PSA API.
572 * New symbols PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
573 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy (where xxx is either ECC, RSA
574 or DH) were introduced in order to have finer accuracy in defining the
575 PSA capabilities for each key. These capabilities, named yyy above, can be
576 any of: BASIC, IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE.
577 - DERIVE is only available for ECC keys, not for RSA or DH ones.
578 - implementations are free to enable more than what it was strictly
579 requested. For example BASIC internally enables IMPORT and EXPORT
580 (useful for testing purposes), but this might change in the future.
581 * Add support for FFDH key exchange in TLS 1.3.
582 This is automatically enabled as soon as PSA_WANT_ALG_FFDH
583 and the ephemeral or psk-ephemeral key exchange mode are enabled.
584 By default, all groups are offered; the list of groups can be
585 configured using the existing API function mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups().
586 * Improve mbedtls_x509_time performance and reduce memory use.
587 * Reduce syscalls to time() during certificate verification.
588 * Allow MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE and MBEDTLS_USER_CONFIG_FILE to be set by
589 setting the CMake variable of the same name at configuration time.
590 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_cache_get_timeout()) to access
591 `mbedtls_ssl_cache_context.timeout`.
592 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_get_hostname()) to access
593 `mbedtls_ssl_context.hostname`.
594 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_conf_get_endpoint()) to access
595 `mbedtls_ssl_config.endpoint`.
596 * Support for "opaque" (PSA-held) ECC keys in the PK module has been
597 extended: it is now possible to use mbedtls_pk_write_key_der(),
598 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(), and
599 mbedtls_pk_verify() with opaque ECC keys (provided the PSA attributes
600 allow it).
601 * The documentation of mbedtls_ecp_group now describes the optimized
602 representation of A for some curves. Fixes #8045.
603 * Add a possibility to generate CSR's with RCF822 and directoryName subtype
604 of subjectAltName extension in x509 certificates.
605 * Add support for PBKDF2-CMAC through the PSA API.
606 * New configuration option MBEDTLS_AES_USE_HARDWARE_ONLY introduced. When
607 using CPU-accelerated AES (e.g., Arm Crypto Extensions), this option
608 disables the plain C implementation and the run-time detection for the
609 CPU feature, which reduces code size and avoids the vulnerability of the
610 plain C implementation.
611 * Accept arbitrary AttributeType and AttributeValue in certificate
612 Distinguished Names using RFC 4514 syntax.
613 * Applications using ECC over secp256r1 through the PSA API can use a
614 new implementation with a much smaller footprint, but some minor
615 usage restrictions. See the documentation of the new configuration
616 option MBEDTLS_PSA_P256M_DRIVER_ENABLED for details.
617
618Security
619 * Fix a case where potentially sensitive information held in memory would not
620 be completely zeroized during TLS 1.2 handshake, in both server and client
621 configurations.
622 * In configurations with ARIA or Camellia but not AES, the value of
623 MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX was 8, rather than 16 as the name might
624 suggest. This did not affect any library code, because this macro was
625 only used in relation with CMAC which does not support these ciphers.
626 This may affect application code that uses this macro.
627 * Developers using mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() should
628 review the size of the output buffer passed to this function, and note
629 that the output after decryption may include CBC padding. Consider moving
630 to the new functions mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext()
631 which checks for overflow of the output buffer and reports the actual
632 length of the output.
633 * Improve padding calculations in CBC decryption, NIST key unwrapping and
634 RSA OAEP decryption. With the previous implementation, some compilers
635 (notably recent versions of Clang and IAR) could produce non-constant
636 time code, which could allow a padding oracle attack if the attacker
637 has access to precise timing measurements.
638 * Updates to constant-time C code so that compilers are less likely to use
639 conditional instructions, which can have an observable difference in
640 timing. (Clang has been seen to do this.) Also introduce assembly
641 implementations for 32- and 64-bit Arm and for x86 and x86-64, which are
642 guaranteed not to use conditional instructions.
643 * Fix definition of MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE, which was too
644 small when MBEDTLS_SHA384_C was defined and MBEDTLS_SHA512_C was
645 undefined. Mbed TLS itself was unaffected by this, but user code
646 which used MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE could be affected. The only
647 release containing this bug was Mbed TLS 3.4.0.
648 * Fix a buffer overread when parsing short TLS application data records in
649 null-cipher cipher suites. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
650 * Fix a remotely exploitable heap buffer overflow in TLS handshake parsing.
651 In TLS 1.3, all configurations are affected except PSK-only ones, and
652 both clients and servers are affected.
653 In TLS 1.2, the affected configurations are those with
654 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and ECDH enabled but DHM and RSA disabled,
655 and only servers are affected, not clients.
656 Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
657
658Bugfix
659 * Fix proper sizing for PSA_EXPORT_[KEY_PAIR/PUBLIC_KEY]_MAX_SIZE and
660 PSA_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE buffers when at least one accelerated EC is bigger
661 than all built-in ones and RSA is disabled.
662 Resolves #6622.
663 * Add missing md.h includes to some of the external programs from
664 the programs directory. Without this, even though the configuration
665 was sufficient for a particular program to work, it would only print
666 a message that one of the required defines is missing.
667 * Fix declaration of mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_restartable() function
668 in the ecdsa.h header file. There was a build warning when the
669 configuration macro MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT was defined.
670 Resolves #7407.
671 * Fix an error when MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT is defined but not
672 MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT, causing ecdsa verify to fail. Fixes #7498.
673 * Fix missing PSA initialization in sample programs when
674 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
675 * Fix the J-PAKE driver interface for user and peer to accept any values
676 (previously accepted values were limited to "client" or "server").
677 * Fix clang and armclang compilation error when targeting certain Arm
678 M-class CPUs (Cortex-M0, Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M1, Cortex-M23,
679 SecurCore SC000). Fixes #1077.
680 * Fix "unterminated '#pragma clang attribute push'" in sha256/sha512.c when
681 built with MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT but don't have a
682 way to detect the crypto extensions required. A warning is still issued.
683 * Fixed an issue that caused compile errors when using CMake and the IAR
684 toolchain.
685 * Fix very high stack usage in SSL debug code. Reported by Maximilian
686 Gerhardt in #7804.
687 * Fix a compilation failure in the constant_time module when
688 building for arm64_32 (e.g., for watchos). Reported by Paulo
689 Coutinho in #7787.
690 * Fix crypt_and_hash decryption fail when used with a stream cipher
691 mode of operation due to the input not being multiple of block size.
692 Resolves #7417.
693 * Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_string_to_names() would return success
694 when given a invalid name string if it did not contain '=' or ','.
695 * Fix compilation warnings in aes.c, which prevented the
696 example TF-M configuration in configs/ from building cleanly:
697 tfm_mbedcrypto_config_profile_medium.h with
698 crypto_config_profile_medium.h.
699 * In TLS 1.3, fix handshake failure when a client in its ClientHello
700 proposes an handshake based on PSK only key exchange mode or at least
701 one of the key exchange modes using ephemeral keys to a server that
702 supports only the PSK key exchange mode.
703 * Fix CCM* with no tag being not supported in a build with CCM as the only
704 symmetric encryption algorithm and the PSA configuration enabled.
705 * Fix the build with MBEDTLS_PSA_INJECT_ENTROPY. Fixes #7516.
706 * Fix a compilation error on some platforms when including mbedtls/ssl.h
707 with all TLS support disabled. Fixes #6628.
708 * Fix x509 certificate generation to conform to RFC 5480 / RFC 5758 when
709 using ECC key. The certificate was rejected by some crypto frameworks.
710 Fixes #2924.
711 * Fix a potential corruption of the passed-in IV when mbedtls_aes_crypt_cbc()
712 is called with zero length and padlock is not enabled.
713 * Fix compile failure due to empty enum in cipher_wrap.c, when building
714 with a very minimal configuration. Fixes #7625.
715 * Fix some cases where mbedtls_mpi_mod_exp, RSA key construction or ECDSA
716 signature can silently return an incorrect result in low memory conditions.
717 * Don't try to include MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE when
718 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is disabled.
719 * Fix IAR compiler warnings.
720 * Fix an issue when parsing an otherName subject alternative name into a
721 mbedtls_x509_san_other_name struct. The type-id of the otherName was not
722 copied to the struct. This meant that the struct had incomplete
723 information about the otherName SAN and contained uninitialized memory.
724 * Fix the detection of HardwareModuleName otherName SANs. These were being
725 detected by comparing the wrong field and the check was erroneously
726 inverted.
727 * Fix a build error in some configurations with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG
728 enabled, where some low-level modules required by requested PSA crypto
729 features were not getting automatically enabled. Fixes #7420.
730 * Fix undefined symbols in some builds using TLS 1.3 with a custom
731 configuration file.
732 * Fix log level for the got supported group message. Fixes #6765
733 * Functions in the ssl_cache module now return a negative MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx
734 error code on failure. Before, they returned 1 to indicate failure in
735 some cases involving a missing entry or a full cache.
736 * mbedtls_pk_parse_key() now rejects trailing garbage in encrypted keys.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100737 * Fix the build with CMake when Everest or P256-m is enabled through
738 a user configuration file or the compiler command line. Fixes #8165.

740Changes
741 * Enable Arm / Thumb bignum assembly for most Arm platforms when
742 compiling with gcc, clang or armclang and -O0.
743 * Enforce minimum RSA key size when generating a key
744 to avoid accidental misuse.
745 * Use heap memory to allocate DER encoded RSA private key.
746 This reduces stack usage significantly for RSA signature
747 operations when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is defined.
748 * Update Windows code to use BCryptGenRandom and wcslen, and
749 ensure that conversions between size_t, ULONG, and int are
750 always done safely. Original contribution by Kevin Kane #635, #730
751 followed by Simon Butcher #1453.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100752 * Users integrating their own PSA drivers should be aware that
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100753 the file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c has been renamed
754 to psa_crypto_driver_wrappers_no_static.c.
755 * When using CBC with the cipher module, the requirement to call
756 mbedtls_cipher_set_padding_mode() is now enforced. Previously, omitting
757 this call accidentally applied a default padding mode chosen at compile
758 time.

769
770Default behavior changes
771 * The default priority order of TLS 1.3 cipher suites has been modified to
772 follow the same rules as the TLS 1.2 cipher suites (see
773 ssl_ciphersuites.c). The preferred cipher suite is now
774 TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256.
775
776New deprecations
777 * mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial() is now being deprecated in favor of
778 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial_raw(). The goal here is to remove any
779 direct dependency of X509 on BIGNUM_C.
780 * PSA to mbedtls error translation is now unified in psa_util.h,
781 deprecating mbedtls_md_error_from_psa. Each file that performs error
782 translation should define its own version of PSA_TO_MBEDTLS_ERR,
783 optionally providing file-specific error pairs. Please see psa_util.h for
784 more details.
785
786Features
787 * Added partial support for parsing the PKCS #7 Cryptographic Message
788 Syntax, as defined in RFC 2315. Currently, support is limited to the
789 following:
790 - Only the signed-data content type, version 1 is supported.
791 - Only DER encoding is supported.
792 - Only a single digest algorithm per message is supported.
793 - Certificates must be in X.509 format. A message must have either 0
794 or 1 certificates.
795 - There is no support for certificate revocation lists.
796 - The authenticated and unauthenticated attribute fields of SignerInfo
797 must be empty.
798 Many thanks to Daniel Axtens, Nayna Jain, and Nick Child from IBM for
799 contributing this feature, and to Demi-Marie Obenour for contributing
800 various improvements, tests and bug fixes.
801 * General performance improvements by accessing multiple bytes at a time.
802 Fixes #1666.
803 * Improvements to use of unaligned and byte-swapped memory, reducing code
804 size and improving performance (depending on compiler and target
805 architecture).
806 * Add support for reading points in compressed format
807 (MBEDTLS_ECP_PF_COMPRESSED) with mbedtls_ecp_point_read_binary()
808 (and callers) for Short Weierstrass curves with prime p where p = 3 mod 4
809 (all mbedtls MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP* and MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_BP* curves
810 except MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP224R1 and MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP224K1)
811 * SHA224_C/SHA384_C are now independent from SHA384_C/SHA512_C respectively.
812 This helps in saving code size when some of the above hashes are not
813 required.
814 * Add parsing of V3 extensions (key usage, Netscape cert-type,
815 Subject Alternative Names) in x509 Certificate Sign Requests.
816 * Use HOSTCC (if it is set) when compiling C code during generation of the
817 configuration-independent files. This allows them to be generated when
818 CC is set for cross compilation.
819 * Add parsing of uniformResourceIdentifier subtype for subjectAltName
820 extension in x509 certificates.
821 * Add an interruptible version of sign and verify hash to the PSA interface,
822 backed by internal library support for ECDSA signing and verification.
823 * Add parsing of rfc822Name subtype for subjectAltName
824 extension in x509 certificates.
825 * The configuration macros MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_PLATFORM_FILE and
826 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STRUCT_FILE specify alternative locations for
827 the headers "psa/crypto_platform.h" and "psa/crypto_struct.h".
828 * When a PSA driver for ECDSA is present, it is now possible to disable
829 MBEDTLS_ECDSA_C in the build in order to save code size. For PK, X.509
830 and TLS to fully work, this requires MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO to be enabled.
831 Restartable/interruptible ECDSA operations in PK, X.509 and TLS are not
832 supported in those builds yet, as driver support for interruptible ECDSA
833 operations is not present yet.
834 * Add a driver dispatch layer for EC J-PAKE, enabling alternative
835 implementations of EC J-PAKE through the driver entry points.
836 * Add new API mbedtls_ssl_cache_remove for cache entry removal by
837 its session id.
838 * Add support to include the SubjectAltName extension to a CSR.
839 * Add support for AES with the Armv8-A Cryptographic Extension on
840 64-bit Arm. A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AESCE_C, can
841 be used to enable this feature. Run-time detection is supported
842 under Linux only.
843 * When a PSA driver for EC J-PAKE is present, it is now possible to disable
844 MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_C in the build in order to save code size. For the
845 corresponding TLS 1.2 key exchange to work, MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO needs
846 to be enabled.
847 * Add functions mbedtls_rsa_get_padding_mode() and mbedtls_rsa_get_md_alg()
848 to read non-public fields for padding mode and hash id from
849 an mbedtls_rsa_context, as requested in #6917.
850 * AES-NI is now supported with Visual Studio.
851 * AES-NI is now supported in 32-bit builds, or when MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM
852 is disabled, when compiling with GCC or Clang or a compatible compiler
853 for a target CPU that supports the requisite instructions (for example
854 gcc -m32 -msse2 -maes -mpclmul). (Generic x86 builds with GCC-like
855 compilers still require MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM and a 64-bit target.)
856 * It is now possible to use a PSA-held (opaque) password with the TLS 1.2
857 ECJPAKE key exchange, using the new API function
858 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ecjpake_password_opaque().
859
860Security
861 * Use platform-provided secure zeroization function where possible, such as
862 explicit_bzero().
863 * Zeroize SSL cache entries when they are freed.
864 * Fix a potential heap buffer overread in TLS 1.3 client-side when
865 MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C is enabled. This may result in an application crash.
866 * Add support for AES with the Armv8-A Cryptographic Extension on 64-bit
867 Arm, so that these systems are no longer vulnerable to timing side-channel
868 attacks. This is configured by MBEDTLS_AESCE_C, which is on by default.
869 Reported by Demi Marie Obenour.
870 * MBEDTLS_AESNI_C, which is enabled by default, was silently ignored on
871 builds that couldn't compile the GCC-style assembly implementation
872 (most notably builds with Visual Studio), leaving them vulnerable to
873 timing side-channel attacks. There is now an intrinsics-based AES-NI
874 implementation as a fallback for when the assembly one cannot be used.
875
876Bugfix
877 * Fix possible integer overflow in mbedtls_timing_hardclock(), which
878 could cause a crash in programs/test/benchmark.
879 * Fix IAR compiler warnings. Fixes #6924.
880 * Fix a bug in the build where directory names containing spaces were
881 causing generate_errors.pl to error out resulting in a build failure.
882 Fixes issue #6879.
883 * In TLS 1.3, when using a ticket for session resumption, tweak its age
884 calculation on the client side. It prevents a server with more accurate
885 ticket timestamps (typically timestamps in milliseconds) compared to the
886 Mbed TLS ticket timestamps (in seconds) to compute a ticket age smaller
887 than the age computed and transmitted by the client and thus potentially
888 reject the ticket. Fix #6623.
889 * Fix compile error where MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_WRITE_C are
890 defined, but MBEDTLS_PK_RSA_ALT_SUPPORT is not defined. Fixes #3174.
891 * List PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG in psa/crypto_config.h so that it can
892 be toggled with config.py.
893 * The key derivation algorithm PSA_ALG_TLS12_ECJPAKE_TO_PMS cannot be
894 used on a shared secret from a key agreement since its input must be
895 an ECC public key. Reject this properly.
896 * mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial() now explicitly rejects serial numbers
897 whose binary representation is longer than 20 bytes. This was already
898 forbidden by the standard (RFC5280 - section 4.1.2.2) and now it's being
899 enforced also at code level.
900 * Fix potential undefined behavior in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs(). Reported by
901 Pascal Cuoq using TrustInSoft Analyzer in #6701; observed independently by
902 Aaron Ucko under Valgrind.
903 * Fix behavior of certain sample programs which could, when run with no
904 arguments, access uninitialized memory in some cases. Fixes #6700 (which
905 was found by TrustInSoft Analyzer during REDOCS'22) and #1120.
906 * Fix parsing of X.509 SubjectAlternativeName extension. Previously,
907 malformed alternative name components were not caught during initial
908 certificate parsing, but only on subsequent calls to
909 mbedtls_x509_parse_subject_alt_name(). Fixes #2838.
910 * Make the fields of mbedtls_pk_rsassa_pss_options public. This makes it
911 possible to verify RSA PSS signatures with the pk module, which was
912 inadvertently broken since Mbed TLS 3.0.
913 * Fix bug in conversion from OID to string in
914 mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string(). OIDs such as 2.40.0.25 are now printed
915 correctly.
916 * Reject OIDs with overlong-encoded subidentifiers when converting
917 them to a string.
918 * Reject OIDs with subidentifier values exceeding UINT_MAX. Such
919 subidentifiers can be valid, but Mbed TLS cannot currently handle them.
920 * Reject OIDs that have unterminated subidentifiers, or (equivalently)
921 have the most-significant bit set in their last byte.
922 * Silence warnings from clang -Wdocumentation about empty \retval
923 descriptions, which started appearing with Clang 15. Fixes #6960.
924 * Fix the handling of renegotiation attempts in TLS 1.3. They are now
925 systematically rejected.
926 * Fix an unused-variable warning in TLS 1.3-only builds if
927 MBEDTLS_SSL_RENEGOTIATION was enabled. Fixes #6200.
928 * Fix undefined behavior in mbedtls_ssl_read() and mbedtls_ssl_write() if
929 len argument is 0 and buffer is NULL.
930 * Allow setting user and peer identifiers for EC J-PAKE operation
931 instead of role in PAKE PSA Crypto API as described in the specification.
932 This is a partial fix that allows only "client" and "server" identifiers.
933 * Fix a compilation error when PSA Crypto is built with support for
934 TLS12_PRF but not TLS12_PSK_TO_MS. Reported by joerchan in #7125.
935 * In the TLS 1.3 server, select the preferred client cipher suite, not the
936 least preferred. The selection error was introduced in Mbed TLS 3.3.0.
937 * Fix TLS 1.3 session resumption when the established pre-shared key is
938 384 bits long. That is the length of pre-shared keys created under a
939 session where the cipher suite is TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384.
940 * Fix an issue when compiling with MBEDTLS_SHA512_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT
941 enabled, which required specifying compiler flags enabling SHA3 Crypto
942 Extensions, where some compilers would emit EOR3 instructions in other
943 modules, which would then fail if run on a CPU without the SHA3
944 extensions. Fixes #5758.
945
946Changes
947 * Install the .cmake files into CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR/cmake/MbedTLS,
948 typically /usr/lib/cmake/MbedTLS.
949 * Mixed-endian systems are explicitly not supported any more.
950 * When MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC are both
951 defined, mbedtls_pk_sign() now use deterministic ECDSA for ECDSA
952 signatures. This aligns the behaviour with MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO to
953 the behaviour without it, where deterministic ECDSA was already used.
954 * Visual Studio: Rename the directory containing Visual Studio files from
955 visualc/VS2010 to visualc/VS2013 as we do not support building with versions
956 older than 2013. Update the solution file to specify VS2013 as a minimum.
957 * programs/x509/cert_write:
958 - now it accepts the serial number in 2 different formats: decimal and
959 hex. They cannot be used simultaneously
960 - "serial" is used for the decimal format and it's limted in size to
961 unsigned long long int
962 - "serial_hex" is used for the hex format; max length here is
963 MBEDTLS_X509_RFC5280_MAX_SERIAL_LEN*2
964 * The C code follows a new coding style. This is transparent for users but
965 affects contributors and maintainers of local patches. For more
966 information, see
967 https://mbed-tls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kb/how-to/rewrite-branch-for-coding-style/
968 * Changed the default MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE from 6 to 2.
969 As tested in issue 6790, the correlation between this define and
970 RSA decryption performance has changed lately due to security fixes.
971 To fix the performance degradation when using default values the
972 window was reduced from 6 to 2, a value that gives the best or close
973 to best results when tested on Cortex-M4 and Intel i7.
974 * When enabling MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_* or
975 MBEDTLS_SHA512_USE_A64_CRYPTO_*, it is no longer necessary to specify
976 compiler target flags on the command line; the library now sets target
977 options within the appropriate modules.

980
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +0000981Default behavior changes
982 * Previously the macro MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID implemented version 05
983 of the IETF draft, and was marked experimental and disabled by default.
984 It is now no longer experimental, and implements the final version from
985 RFC 9146, which is not interoperable with the draft-05 version.
986 If you need to communicate with peers that use earlier versions of
987 Mbed TLS, then you need to define MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID_COMPAT
988 to 1, but then you won't be able to communicate with peers that use the
989 standard (non-draft) version.
990 If you need to interoperate with both classes of peers with the
991 same build of Mbed TLS, please let us know about your situation on the
992 mailing list or GitHub.
993
994Requirement changes
995 * When building with PSA drivers using generate_driver_wrappers.py, or
996 when building the library from the development branch rather than
997 from a release, the Python module jsonschema is now necessary, in
998 addition to jinja2. The official list of required Python modules is
999 maintained in scripts/basic.requirements.txt and may change again
1000 in the future.
1001
1002New deprecations
1003 * Deprecate mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data().
1004 Use mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list()
1005 or mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list_shallow().
1006
1007Features
1008 * Support rsa_pss_rsae_* signature algorithms in TLS 1.2.
1009 * make: enable building unversioned shared library, with e.g.:
1010 "SHARED=1 SOEXT_TLS=so SOEXT_X509=so SOEXT_CRYPTO=so make lib"
1011 resulting in library names like "libmbedtls.so" rather than
1012 "libmbedcrypto.so.11".
1013 * Expose the EC J-PAKE functionality through the Draft PSA PAKE Crypto API.
1014 Only the ECC primitive with secp256r1 curve and SHA-256 hash algorithm
1015 are supported in this implementation.
1016 * Some modules can now use PSA drivers for hashes, including with no
1017 built-in implementation present, but only in some configurations.
1018 - RSA OAEP and PSS (PKCS#1 v2.1), PKCS5, PKCS12 and EC J-PAKE now use
1019 hashes from PSA when (and only when) MBEDTLS_MD_C is disabled.
1020 - PEM parsing of encrypted files now uses MD-5 from PSA when (and only
1021 when) MBEDTLS_MD5_C is disabled.
1022 See the documentation of the corresponding macros in mbedtls_config.h for
1023 details.
1024 Note that some modules are not able to use hashes from PSA yet, including
1025 the entropy module. As a consequence, for now the only way to build with
1026 all hashes only provided by drivers (no built-in hash) is to use
1027 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG.
1028 * When MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled, X.509, TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 now
1029 properly negotiate/accept hashes based on their availability in PSA.
1030 As a consequence, they now work in configurations where the built-in
1031 implementations of (some) hashes are excluded and those hashes are only
1032 provided by PSA drivers. (See previous entry for limitation on RSA-PSS
1033 though: that module only use hashes from PSA when MBEDTLS_MD_C is off).
1034 * Add support for opaque keys as the private keys associated to certificates
1035 for authentication in TLS 1.3.
1036 * Add the LMS post-quantum-safe stateful-hash asymmetric signature scheme.
1037 Signature verification is production-ready, but generation is for testing
1038 purposes only. This currently only supports one parameter set
1039 (LMS_SHA256_M32_H10), meaning that each private key can be used to sign
1040 1024 messages. As such, it is not intended for use in TLS, but instead
1041 for verification of assets transmitted over an insecure channel,
1042 particularly firmware images.
1043 * Add the LM-OTS post-quantum-safe one-time signature scheme, which is
1044 required for LMS. This can be used independently, but each key can only
1045 be used to sign one message so is impractical for most circumstances.
1046 * Mbed TLS now supports TLS 1.3 key establishment via pre-shared keys.
1047 The pre-shared keys can be provisioned externally or via the ticket
1048 mechanism (session resumption).
1049 The ticket mechanism is supported when the configuration option
1050 MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS is enabled.
1051 New options MBEDTLS_SSL_TLS1_3_KEY_EXCHANGE_MODE_xxx_ENABLED
1052 control the support for the three possible TLS 1.3 key exchange modes.
1053 * cert_write: support for setting extended key usage attributes. A
1054 corresponding new public API call has been added in the library,
1055 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_ext_key_usage().
1056 * cert_write: support for writing certificate files in either PEM
1057 or DER format.
1058 * The PSA driver wrapper generator generate_driver_wrappers.py now
1059 supports a subset of the driver description language, including
1060 the following entry points: import_key, export_key, export_public_key,
1061 get_builtin_key, copy_key.
1062 * The new functions mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list() and
1063 mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list_shallow() simplify the management
1064 of memory in named data lists in X.509 structures.
1065 * The TLS 1.2 EC J-PAKE key exchange can now use the PSA Crypto API.
1066 Additional PSA key slots will be allocated in the process of such key
1067 exchange for builds that enable MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECJPAKE_ENABLED and
1068 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO.
1069 * Add support for DTLS Connection ID as defined by RFC 9146, controlled by
1070 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (enabled by default) and configured with
1071 mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().
1072 * Add a driver dispatch layer for raw key agreement, enabling alternative
1073 implementations of raw key agreement through the key_agreement driver
1074 entry point. This entry point is specified in the proposed PSA driver
1075 interface, but had not yet been implemented.
Dave Rodgman552e1072022-12-14 17:01:51 +00001076 * Add an ad-hoc key derivation function handling EC J-PAKE to PMS
1077 calculation that can be used to derive the session secret in TLS 1.2,
1078 as described in draft-cragie-tls-ecjpake-01. This can be achieved by
1079 using PSA_ALG_TLS12_ECJPAKE_TO_PMS as the key derivation algorithm.
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +00001080
1081Security
1082 * Fix potential heap buffer overread and overwrite in DTLS if
1083 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID is enabled and
1084 MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_IN_LEN_MAX > 2 * MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_OUT_LEN_MAX.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001085 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough information
1086 about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking
1087 a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the
1088 victim performing a single private-key operation if the window size used
1089 for the exponentiation was 3 or smaller. Found and reported by Zili KOU,
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +00001090 Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG. See "Cache Side-channel Attacks
1091 and Defenses of the Sliding Window Algorithm in TEEs" - Design, Automation
1092 and Test in Europe 2023.
1093
1094Bugfix
1095 * Refactor mbedtls_aes_context to support shallow-copying. Fixes #2147.
1096 * Fix an issue with in-tree CMake builds in releases with GEN_FILES
1097 turned off: if a shipped file was missing from the working directory,
1098 it could be turned into a symbolic link to itself.
1099 * Fix a long-standing build failure when building x86 PIC code with old
1100 gcc (4.x). The code will be slower, but will compile. We do however
1101 recommend upgrading to a more recent compiler instead. Fixes #1910.
1102 * Fix support for little-endian Microblaze when MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM is defined.
1103 Contributed by Kazuyuki Kimura to fix #2020.
1104 * Use double quotes to include private header file psa_crypto_cipher.h.
1105 Fixes 'file not found with <angled> include' error
1106 when building with Xcode.
1107 * Fix handling of broken symlinks when loading certificates using
1108 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_path(). Instead of returning an error as soon as a
1109 broken link is encountered, skip the broken link and continue parsing
1110 other certificate files. Contributed by Eduardo Silva in #2602.
1111 * Fix an interoperability failure between an Mbed TLS client with both
1112 TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 support, and a TLS 1.2 server that supports
1113 rsa_pss_rsae_* signature algorithms. This failed because Mbed TLS
1114 advertised support for PSS in both TLS 1.2 and 1.3, but only
1115 actually supported PSS in TLS 1.3.
1116 * Fix a compilation error when using CMake with an IAR toolchain.
1117 Fixes #5964.
1118 * Fix a build error due to a missing prototype warning when
1119 MBEDTLS_DEPRECATED_REMOVED is enabled.
1120 * Fix mbedtls_ctr_drbg_free() on an initialized but unseeded context. When
1121 MBEDTLS_AES_ALT is enabled, it could call mbedtls_aes_free() on an
1122 uninitialized context.
1123 * Fix a build issue on Windows using CMake where the source and build
1124 directories could not be on different drives. Fixes #5751.
1125 * Fix bugs and missing dependencies when building and testing
1126 configurations with only one encryption type enabled in TLS 1.2.
1127 * Provide the missing definition of mbedtls_setbuf() in some configurations
1128 with MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C disabled. Fixes #6118, #6196.
1129 * Fix compilation errors when trying to build with
1130 PSA drivers for AEAD (GCM, CCM, Chacha20-Poly1305).
1131 * Fix memory leak in ssl_parse_certificate_request() caused by
1132 mbedtls_x509_get_name() not freeing allocated objects in case of error.
1133 Change mbedtls_x509_get_name() to clean up allocated objects on error.
1134 * Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C but not
1135 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO or MBEDTLS_PK_WRITE_C. Fixes #6408.
1136 * Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C but not
1137 MBEDTLS_PK_PARSE_C. Fixes #6409.
1138 * Fix ECDSA verification, where it was not always validating the
1139 public key. This bug meant that it was possible to verify a
1140 signature with an invalid public key, in some cases. Reported by
1141 Guido Vranken using Cryptofuzz in #4420.
1142 * Fix a possible null pointer dereference if a memory allocation fails
1143 in TLS PRF code. Reported by Michael Madsen in #6516.
1144 * Fix TLS 1.3 session resumption. Fixes #6488.
1145 * Add a configuration check to exclude optional client authentication
1146 in TLS 1.3 (where it is forbidden).
1147 * Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_crt_info() would produce non-printable
1148 bytes when parsing certificates containing a binary RFC 4108
1149 HardwareModuleName as a Subject Alternative Name extension. Hardware
1150 serial numbers are now rendered in hex format. Fixes #6262.
1151 * Fix bug in error reporting in dh_genprime.c where upon failure,
1152 the error code returned by mbedtls_mpi_write_file() is overwritten
1153 and therefore not printed.
1154 * In the bignum module, operations of the form (-A) - (+A) or (-A) - (-A)
1155 with A > 0 created an unintended representation of the value 0 which was
1156 not processed correctly by some bignum operations. Fix this. This had no
1157 consequence on cryptography code, but might affect applications that call
1158 bignum directly and use negative numbers.
1159 * Fix a bug whereby the list of signature algorithms sent as part of
1160 the TLS 1.2 server certificate request would get corrupted, meaning the
1161 first algorithm would not get sent and an entry consisting of two random
1162 bytes would be sent instead. Found by Serban Bejan and Dudek Sebastian.
1163 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) of
1164 mbedtls_mpi_add_mpi(), mbedtls_mpi_add_abs() and mbedtls_mpi_add_int()
1165 when both operands are 0 and the left operand is represented with 0 limbs.
1166 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) when some bignum
1167 functions receive the most negative value of mbedtls_mpi_sint. Credit
1168 to OSS-Fuzz. Fixes #6597.
1169 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) in PSA ECB
1170 encryption and decryption.
1171 * Move some SSL-specific code out of libmbedcrypto where it had been placed
1172 accidentally.
1173 * Fix a build error when compiling the bignum module for some Arm platforms.
1174 Fixes #6089, #6124, #6217.
1175
1176Changes
1177 * Add the ability to query PSA_WANT_xxx macros to query_compile_time_config.
1178 * Calling AEAD tag-specific functions for non-AEAD algorithms (which
1179 should not be done - they are documented for use only by AES-GCM and
1180 ChaCha20+Poly1305) now returns MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE
1181 instead of success (0).

1190Default behavior changes
1191 * mbedtls_cipher_set_iv will now fail with ChaCha20 and ChaCha20+Poly1305
1192 for IV lengths other than 12. The library was silently overwriting this
1193 length with 12, but did not inform the caller about it. Fixes #4301.
1194
1195Requirement changes
1196 * The library will no longer compile out of the box on a platform without
1197 setbuf(). If your platform does not have setbuf(), you can configure an
1198 alternative function by enabling MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETBUF_ALT or
1199 MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETBUF_MACRO.
1200
1201New deprecations
1202 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version() and
1203 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version() in favor of
1204 mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_tls_version() and
1205 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_tls_version().
1206 * Deprecate mbedtls_cipher_setup_psa(). Use psa_aead_xxx() or
1207 psa_cipher_xxx() directly instead.
1208 * Secure element drivers enabled by MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C are deprecated.
1209 This was intended as an experimental feature, but had not been explicitly
1210 documented as such. Use opaque drivers with the interface enabled by
1211 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_DRIVERS instead.
1212 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes() in favor of the more generic
1213 mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_algs(). Signature algorithms for the TLS 1.2 and
1214 TLS 1.3 handshake should now be configured with
1215 mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_algs().
1216
1217Features
1218 * Add accessor to obtain ciphersuite id from ssl context.
1219 * Add accessors to get members from ciphersuite info.
1220 * Add mbedtls_ssl_ticket_rotate() for external ticket rotation.
1221 * Add accessor to get the raw buffer pointer from a PEM context.
1222 * The structures mbedtls_ssl_config and mbedtls_ssl_context now store
1223 a piece of user data which is reserved for the application. The user
1224 data can be either a pointer or an integer.
1225 * Add an accessor function to get the configuration associated with
1226 an SSL context.
1227 * Add a function to access the protocol version from an SSL context in a
1228 form that's easy to compare. Fixes #5407.
1229 * Add function mbedtls_md_info_from_ctx() to recall the message digest
1230 information that was used to set up a message digest context.
1231 * Add ALPN support in TLS 1.3 clients.
1232 * Add server certificate selection callback near end of Client Hello.
1233 Register callback with mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb().
1234 * Provide mechanism to reset handshake cert list by calling
1235 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_own_cert() with NULL value for own_cert param.
1236 * Add accessor mbedtls_ssl_get_hs_sni() to retrieve SNI from within
1237 cert callback (mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb()) during handshake.
1238 * The X.509 module now uses PSA hash acceleration if present.
1239 * Add support for psa crypto key derivation for elliptic curve
1240 keys. Fixes #3260.
1241 * Add function mbedtls_timing_get_final_delay() to access the private
1242 final delay field in an mbedtls_timing_delay_context, as requested in
1243 #5183.
1244 * Add mbedtls_pk_sign_ext() which allows generating RSA-PSS signatures when
1245 PSA Crypto is enabled.
1246 * Add function mbedtls_ecp_export() to export ECP key pair parameters.
1247 Fixes #4838.
1248 * Add function mbedtls_ssl_is_handshake_over() to enable querying if the SSL
1249 Handshake has completed or not, and thus whether to continue calling
1250 mbedtls_ssl_handshake_step(), requested in #4383.
1251 * Add the function mbedtls_ssl_get_own_cid() to access our own connection id
1252 within mbedtls_ssl_context, as requested in #5184.
1253 * Introduce mbedtls_ssl_hs_cb_t typedef for use with
1254 mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb() and perhaps future callbacks
1255 during TLS handshake.
1256 * Add functions mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_tls_version() and
1257 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_tls_version() that use a single value to specify
1258 the protocol version.
1259 * Extend the existing PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS() algorithm to support
1260 mixed-PSK. Add an optional input PSA_KEY_DERIVATION_INPUT_OTHER_SECRET
1261 holding the other secret.
1262 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is enabled, you may list the PSA crypto
1263 feature requirements in the file named by the new macro
1264 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG_FILE instead of the default psa/crypto_config.h.
1265 Furthermore you may name an additional file to include after the main
1266 file with the macro MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE.
1267 * Add the function mbedtls_x509_crt_has_ext_type() to access the ext types
1268 field within mbedtls_x509_crt context, as requested in #5585.
1269 * Add HKDF-Expand and HKDF-Extract as separate algorithms in the PSA API.
1270 * Add support for the ARMv8 SHA-2 acceleration instructions when building
1271 for Aarch64.
1272 * Add support for authentication of TLS 1.3 clients by TLS 1.3 servers.
1273 * Add support for server HelloRetryRequest message. The TLS 1.3 client is
1274 now capable of negotiating another shared secret if the one sent in its
1275 first ClientHello was not suitable to the server.
1276 * Add support for client-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
1277 TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled in the build of Mbed TLS, the TLS client now
1278 negotiates TLS 1.3 or TLS 1.2 with TLS servers.
1279 * Enable building of Mbed TLS with TLS 1.3 protocol support but without TLS
1280 1.2 protocol support.
1281 * Mbed TLS provides an implementation of a TLS 1.3 server (ephemeral key
1282 establishment only). See docs/architecture/tls13-support.md for a
1283 description of the support. The MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3 and
1284 MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_C configuration options control this.
1285 * Add accessors to configure DN hints for certificate request:
1286 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dn_hints() and mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_dn_hints()
1287 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO, which previously
1288 affected only a limited subset of crypto operations in TLS, X.509 and PK,
1289 now causes most of them to be done using PSA Crypto; see
1290 docs/use-psa-crypto.md for the list of exceptions.
1291 * The function mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque() now supports RSA key pairs as well.
1292 Opaque keys can now be used everywhere a private key is expected in the
1293 TLS and X.509 modules.
1294 * Opaque pre-shared keys for TLS, provisioned with
1295 mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk_opaque() or mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk_opaque(), which
1296 previously only worked for "pure" PSK key exchange, now can also be used
1297 for the "mixed" PSK key exchanges as well: ECDHE-PSK, DHE-PSK, RSA-PSK.
1298 * cmake now detects if it is being built as a sub-project, and in that case
1299 disables the target export/installation and package configuration.
1300 * Make USE_PSA_CRYPTO compatible with KEY_ID_ENCODES_OWNER. Fixes #5259.
1301 * Add example programs cipher_aead_demo.c, md_hmac_demo.c, aead_demo.c
1302 and hmac_demo.c, which use PSA and the md/cipher interfaces side
1303 by side in order to illustrate how the operation is performed in PSA.
1304 Addresses #5208.
1305
1306Security
1307 * Zeroize dynamically-allocated buffers used by the PSA Crypto key storage
1308 module before freeing them. These buffers contain secret key material, and
1309 could thus potentially leak the key through freed heap.
1310 * Fix potential memory leak inside mbedtls_ssl_cache_set() with
1311 an invalid session id length.
1312 * Add the platform function mbedtls_setbuf() to allow buffering to be
1313 disabled on stdio files, to stop secrets loaded from said files being
1314 potentially left in memory after file operations. Reported by
1315 Glenn Strauss.
1316 * Fix a potential heap buffer overread in TLS 1.2 server-side when
1317 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled, an opaque key (created with
1318 mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque()) is provisioned, and a static ECDH ciphersuite
1319 is selected. This may result in an application crash or potentially an
1320 information leak.
1321 * Fix a buffer overread in DTLS ClientHello parsing in servers with
1322 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CLIENT_PORT_REUSE enabled. An unauthenticated client
1323 or a man-in-the-middle could cause a DTLS server to read up to 255 bytes
1324 after the end of the SSL input buffer. The buffer overread only happens
1325 when MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN is less than a threshold that depends on
1326 the exact configuration: 258 bytes if using mbedtls_ssl_cookie_check(),
1327 and possibly up to 571 bytes with a custom cookie check function.
1328 Reported by the Cybeats PSI Team.
1329 * Fix a buffer overread in TLS 1.3 Certificate parsing. An unauthenticated
1330 client or server could cause an MbedTLS server or client to overread up
1331 to 64 kBytes of data and potentially overread the input buffer by that
1332 amount minus the size of the input buffer. As overread data undergoes
1333 various checks, the likelihood of reaching the boundary of the input
1334 buffer is rather small but increases as its size
1335 MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN decreases.
1336 * Fix check of certificate key usage in TLS 1.3. The usage of the public key
1337 provided by a client or server certificate for authentication was not
1338 checked properly when validating the certificate. This could cause a
1339 client or server to be able to authenticate itself through a certificate
1340 to an Mbed TLS TLS 1.3 server or client while it does not own a proper
1341 certificate to do so.
1342
1343Bugfix
1344 * Declare or use PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG following the general
1345 pattern for PSA_WANT_xxx symbols. Previously you had to specify
1346 PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM for PSA_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG.
1347 * Fix a memory leak if mbedtls_ssl_config_defaults() is called twice.
1348 * Fixed swap of client and server random bytes when exporting them alongside
1349 TLS 1.3 handshake and application traffic secret.
1350 * Fix several bugs (warnings, compiler and linker errors, test failures)
1351 in reduced configurations when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
1352 * Fix a bug in (D)TLS curve negotiation: when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO was
1353 enabled and an ECDHE-ECDSA or ECDHE-RSA key exchange was used, the
1354 client would fail to check that the curve selected by the server for
1355 ECDHE was indeed one that was offered. As a result, the client would
1356 accept any curve that it supported, even if that curve was not allowed
1357 according to its configuration. Fixes #5291.
1358 * The TLS 1.3 implementation is now compatible with the
1359 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO configuration option.
1360 * Fix unit tests that used 0 as the file UID. This failed on some
1361 implementations of PSA ITS. Fixes #3838.
1362 * Fix mbedtls_ssl_get_version() not reporting TLSv1.3. Fixes #5406.
1363 * Fix API violation in mbedtls_md_process() test by adding a call to
1364 mbedtls_md_starts(). Fixes #2227.
1365 * Fix compile errors when MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME is not defined. Add tests
1366 to catch bad uses of time.h.
1367 * Fix a race condition in out-of-source builds with CMake when generated data
1368 files are already present. Fixes #5374.
1369 * Fix the library search path when building a shared library with CMake
1370 on Windows.
1371 * Fix bug in the alert sending function mbedtls_ssl_send_alert_message()
1372 potentially leading to corrupted alert messages being sent in case
1373 the function needs to be re-called after initially returning
1374 MBEDTLS_SSL_WANT_WRITE. Fixes #1916.
1375 * In configurations with MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID enabled but not
1376 MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C, DTLS handshakes using CID would crash due to a null
1377 pointer dereference. Fix this. Fixes #3998.
1378 The fix was released, but not announced, in Mbed TLS 3.1.0.
1379 * Fix incorrect documentation of mbedtls_x509_crt_profile. The previous
1380 documentation stated that the `allowed_pks` field applies to signatures
1381 only, but in fact it does apply to the public key type of the end entity
1382 certificate, too. Fixes #1992.
1383 * Fix undefined behavior in mbedtls_asn1_find_named_data(), where val is
1384 not NULL and val_len is zero.
1385 * Fix compilation error with mingw32. Fixed by Cameron Cawley in #4211.
1386 * Fix compilation error when using C++ Builder on Windows. Reported by
1387 Miroslav Mastny in #4015.
1388 * psa_raw_key_agreement() now returns PSA_ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL when
1389 applicable. Fixes #5735.
1390 * Fix a bug in the x25519 example program where the removal of
1391 MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT caused the program not to run. Fixes #4901 and
1392 #3191.
1393 * Fix a TLS 1.3 handshake failure when the peer Finished message has not
1394 been received yet when we first try to fetch it.
1395 * Encode X.509 dates before 1/1/2000 as UTCTime rather than
1396 GeneralizedTime. Fixes #5465.
1397 * Add mbedtls_x509_dn_get_next function to return the next relative DN in
1398 an X509 name, to allow walking the name list. Fixes #5431.
1399 * Fix order value of curve x448.
1400 * Fix string representation of DNs when outputting values containing commas
1401 and other special characters, conforming to RFC 1779. Fixes #769.
1402 * Silence a warning from GCC 12 in the selftest program. Fixes #5974.
1403 * Fix check_config.h to check that we have MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE
1404 when MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3 is specified, and make this and other
1405 dependencies explicit in the documentation. Fixes #5610.
1406 * Fix mbedtls_asn1_write_mpi() writing an incorrect encoding of 0.
1407 * Fix a TLS 1.3 handshake failure when the first attempt to send the client
1408 Finished message on the network cannot be satisfied. Fixes #5499.
1409 * Fix resource leaks in mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() in low
1410 memory conditions.
1411 * Fix server connection identifier setting for outgoing encrypted records
1412 on DTLS 1.2 session resumption. After DTLS 1.2 session resumption with
1413 connection identifier, the Mbed TLS client now properly sends the server
1414 connection identifier in encrypted record headers. Fix #5872.
1415 * Fix a null pointer dereference when performing some operations on zero
1416 represented with 0 limbs (specifically mbedtls_mpi_mod_int() dividing
1417 by 2, and mbedtls_mpi_write_string() in base 2).
1418 * Fix record sizes larger than 16384 being sometimes accepted despite being
1419 non-compliant. This could not lead to a buffer overflow. In particular,
1420 application data size was already checked correctly.
1421 * Fix MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_KEY_ID() and MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_OWNER_ID()
1422 which have been broken, resulting in compilation errors, since Mbed TLS
1423 3.0.
1424 * Ensure that TLS 1.2 ciphersuite/certificate and key selection takes into
1425 account not just the type of the key (RSA vs EC) but also what it can
1426 actually do. Resolves #5831.
1427 * Fix CMake windows host detection, especially when cross compiling.
1428 * Fix an error in make where the absence of a generated file caused
1429 make to break on a clean checkout. Fixes #5340.
1430 * Work around an MSVC ARM64 compiler bug causing incorrect behaviour
1431 in mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod(). Reported by Tautvydas Žilys in #5467.
Dave Rodgman2b52a2e2022-12-12 15:23:44 +00001432 * Removed the prompt to exit from all windows build programs, which was causing
Paul Elliott2238eed2022-07-08 18:19:12 +01001433 issues in CI/CD environments.
1434
1435Changes
1436 * The file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c is now generated
1437 from a template. In the future, the generation will support
1438 driver descriptions. For the time being, to customize this file,
1439 see docs/proposed/psa-driver-wrappers-codegen-migration-guide.md
1440 * Return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT if the algorithm passed to one-shot
1441 AEAD functions is not an AEAD algorithm. This aligns them with the
1442 multipart functions, and the PSA Crypto API 1.1 specification.
1443 * In mbedtls_pk_parse_key(), if no password is provided, don't allocate a
1444 temporary variable on the heap. Suggested by Sergey Kanatov in #5304.
1445 * Assume source files are in UTF-8 when using MSVC with CMake.
1446 * Fix runtime library install location when building with CMake and MinGW.
1447 DLLs are now installed in the bin directory instead of lib.
1448 * cmake: Use GnuInstallDirs to customize install directories
1449 Replace custom LIB_INSTALL_DIR variable with standard CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR
1450 variable. For backward compatibility, set CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR if
1451 LIB_INSTALL_DIR is set.
1452 * Add a CMake option that enables static linking of the runtime library
1453 in Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. Contributed by Microplankton.
1454 * In CMake builds, add aliases for libraries so that the normal MbedTLS::*
1455 targets work when MbedTLS is built as a subdirectory. This allows the
1456 use of FetchContent, as requested in #5688.

1460API changes
1461 * New error code for GCM: MBEDTLS_ERR_GCM_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL.
1462 Alternative GCM implementations are expected to verify
1463 the length of the provided output buffers and to return the
1464 MBEDTLS_ERR_GCM_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL in case the buffer length is too small.
1465 * You can configure groups for a TLS key exchange with the new function
1466 mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups(). It extends mbedtls_ssl_conf_curves().
1467 * Declare a number of structure fields as public: the fields of
1468 mbedtls_ecp_curve_info, the fields describing the result of ASN.1 and
1469 X.509 parsing, and finally the field fd of mbedtls_net_context on
1470 POSIX/Unix-like platforms.

1485 * Enable support for Curve448 via the PSA API. Contributed by
1486 Archana Madhavan in #4626. Fixes #3399 and #4249.
1487 * The identifier of the CID TLS extension can be configured by defining
1488 MBEDTLS_TLS_EXT_CID at compile time.
1489 * Implement the PSA multipart AEAD interface, currently supporting
1490 ChaChaPoly and GCM.
1491 * Warn if errors from certain functions are ignored. This is currently
1492 supported on GCC-like compilers and on MSVC and can be configured through
1493 the macro MBEDTLS_CHECK_RETURN. The warnings are always enabled
1494 (where supported) for critical functions where ignoring the return
1495 value is almost always a bug. Enable the new configuration option
1496 MBEDTLS_CHECK_RETURN_WARNING to get warnings for other functions. This
1497 is currently implemented in the AES, DES and md modules, and will be
1498 extended to other modules in the future.
1499 * Add missing PSA macros declared by PSA Crypto API 1.0.0:
1500 PSA_ALG_IS_SIGN_HASH, PSA_ALG_NONE, PSA_HASH_BLOCK_LENGTH, PSA_KEY_ID_NULL.
1501 * Add support for CCM*-no-tag cipher to the PSA.
1502 Currently only 13-byte long IV's are supported.
1503 For decryption a minimum of 16-byte long input is expected.
1504 These restrictions may be subject to change.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001505 * Add new API mbedtls_ct_memcmp for constant time buffer comparison.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001506 * Add functions to get the IV and block size from cipher_info structs.
1507 * Add functions to check if a cipher supports variable IV or key size.
1508 * Add the internal implementation of and support for CCM to the PSA multipart
1509 AEAD interface.
1510 * Mbed TLS provides a minimum viable implementation of the TLS 1.3
1511 protocol. See docs/architecture/tls13-support.md for the definition of
1512 the TLS 1.3 Minimum Viable Product (MVP). The MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3
1513 configuration option controls the enablement of the support. The APIs
1514 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version() and mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version() allow
1515 to select the 1.3 version of the protocol to establish a TLS connection.
1516 * Add PSA API definition for ARIA.
1517
1518Security
1519 * Zeroize several intermediate variables used to calculate the expected
1520 value when verifying a MAC or AEAD tag. This hardens the library in
1521 case the value leaks through a memory disclosure vulnerability. For
1522 example, a memory disclosure vulnerability could have allowed a
1523 man-in-the-middle to inject fake ciphertext into a DTLS connection.
1524 * In psa_aead_generate_nonce(), do not read back from the output buffer.
1525 This fixes a potential policy bypass or decryption oracle vulnerability
1526 if the output buffer is in memory that is shared with an untrusted
1527 application.
1528 * In psa_cipher_generate_iv() and psa_cipher_encrypt(), do not read back
1529 from the output buffer. This fixes a potential policy bypass or decryption
1530 oracle vulnerability if the output buffer is in memory that is shared with
1531 an untrusted application.
1532 * Fix a double-free that happened after mbedtls_ssl_set_session() or
1533 mbedtls_ssl_get_session() failed with MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ALLOC_FAILED
1534 (out of memory). After that, calling mbedtls_ssl_session_free()
1535 and mbedtls_ssl_free() would cause an internal session buffer to
1536 be free()'d twice.
1537
1538Bugfix
1539 * Stop using reserved identifiers as local variables. Fixes #4630.
1540 * The GNU makefiles invoke python3 in preference to python except on Windows.
1541 The check was accidentally not performed when cross-compiling for Windows
1542 on Linux. Fix this. Fixes #4774.
1543 * Prevent divide by zero if either of PSA_CIPHER_ENCRYPT_OUTPUT_SIZE() or
1544 PSA_CIPHER_UPDATE_OUTPUT_SIZE() were called using an asymmetric key type.
1545 * Fix a parameter set but unused in psa_crypto_cipher.c. Fixes #4935.
1546 * Don't use the obsolete header path sys/fcntl.h in unit tests.
1547 These header files cause compilation errors in musl.
1548 Fixes #4969.
1549 * Fix missing constraints on x86_64 and aarch64 assembly code
1550 for bignum multiplication that broke some bignum operations with
1551 (at least) Clang 12.
1552 Fixes #4116, #4786, #4917, #4962.
1553 * Fix mbedtls_cipher_crypt: AES-ECB when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
1554 * Failures of alternative implementations of AES or DES single-block
1555 functions enabled with MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT, MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT,
1556 MBEDTLS_DES_CRYPT_ECB_ALT or MBEDTLS_DES3_CRYPT_ECB_ALT were ignored.
1557 This does not concern the implementation provided with Mbed TLS,
1558 where this function cannot fail, or full-module replacements with
1559 MBEDTLS_AES_ALT or MBEDTLS_DES_ALT. Reported by Armelle Duboc in #1092.
1560 * Some failures of HMAC operations were ignored. These failures could only
1561 happen with an alternative implementation of the underlying hash module.
1562 * Fix the error returned by psa_generate_key() for a public key. Fixes #4551.
1563 * Fix compile-time or run-time errors in PSA
1564 AEAD functions when ChachaPoly is disabled. Fixes #5065.
1565 * Remove PSA'a AEAD finish/verify output buffer limitation for GCM.
1566 The requirement of minimum 15 bytes for output buffer in
1567 psa_aead_finish() and psa_aead_verify() does not apply to the built-in
1568 implementation of GCM.
1569 * Move GCM's update output buffer length verification from PSA AEAD to
1570 the built-in implementation of the GCM.
1571 The requirement for output buffer size to be equal or greater then
1572 input buffer size is valid only for the built-in implementation of GCM.
1573 Alternative GCM implementations can process whole blocks only.
1574 * Fix the build of sample programs when neither MBEDTLS_ERROR_C nor
1575 MBEDTLS_ERROR_STRERROR_DUMMY is enabled.
1576 * Fix PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS verification accepting an arbitrary salt length.
1577 This algorithm now accepts only the same salt length for verification
1578 that it produces when signing, as documented. Use the new algorithm
1579 PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS_ANY_SALT to accept any salt length. Fixes #4946.
1580 * The existing predicate macro name PSA_ALG_IS_HASH_AND_SIGN is now reserved
1581 for algorithm values that fully encode the hashing step, as per the PSA
1582 Crypto API specification. This excludes PSA_ALG_RSA_PKCS1V15_SIGN_RAW and
1583 PSA_ALG_ECDSA_ANY. The new predicate macro PSA_ALG_IS_SIGN_HASH covers
1584 all algorithms that can be used with psa_{sign,verify}_hash(), including
1585 these two.
1586 * Fix issue in Makefile on Linux with SHARED=1, that caused shared libraries
1587 not to list other shared libraries they need.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001588 * Fix a bug in mbedtls_gcm_starts() when the bit length of the iv
1589 exceeds 2^32. Fixes #4884.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001590 * Fix an uninitialized variable warning in test_suite_ssl.function with GCC
1591 version 11.
1592 * Fix the build when no SHA2 module is included. Fixes #4930.
1593 * Fix the build when only the bignum module is included. Fixes #4929.
1594 * Fix a potential invalid pointer dereference and infinite loop bugs in
1595 pkcs12 functions when the password is empty. Fix the documentation to
1596 better describe the inputs to these functions and their possible values.
1597 Fixes #5136.
1598 * The key usage flags PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_MESSAGE now allows the MAC
1599 operations psa_mac_compute() and psa_mac_sign_setup().
1600 * The key usage flags PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_MESSAGE now allows the MAC
1601 operations psa_mac_verify() and psa_mac_verify_setup().
1602
1603Changes
1604 * Explicitly mark the fields mbedtls_ssl_session.exported and
1605 mbedtls_ssl_config.respect_cli_pref as private. This was an
1606 oversight during the run-up to the release of Mbed TLS 3.0.
1607 The fields were never intended to be public.
1608 * Implement multi-part CCM API.
1609 The multi-part functions: mbedtls_ccm_starts(), mbedtls_ccm_set_lengths(),
1610 mbedtls_ccm_update_ad(), mbedtls_ccm_update(), mbedtls_ccm_finish()
1611 were introduced in mbedTLS 3.0 release, however their implementation was
1612 postponed until now.
1613 Implemented functions support chunked data input for both CCM and CCM*
1614 algorithms.
1615 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS, making it always on and increasing the
1616 code size by about 80B on an M0 build. This option only gated an ability
1617 to set a callback, but was deemed unnecessary as it was yet another define
1618 to remember when writing tests, or test configurations. Fixes #4653.
1619 * Improve the performance of base64 constant-flow code. The result is still
1620 slower than the original non-constant-flow implementation, but much faster
1621 than the previous constant-flow implementation. Fixes #4814.
1622 * Ignore plaintext/ciphertext lengths for CCM*-no-tag operations.
1623 For CCM* encryption/decryption without authentication, input
1624 length will be ignored.
1625 * Indicate in the error returned if the nonce length used with
1626 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is invalid, and not just unsupported.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001627 * The mbedcrypto library includes a new source code module constant_time.c,
1628 containing various functions meant to resist timing side channel attacks.
1629 This module does not have a separate configuration option, and functions
1630 from this module will be included in the build as required. Currently
1631 most of the interface of this module is private and may change at any
1632 time.
1633 * The generated configuration-independent files are now automatically
1634 generated by the CMake build system on Unix-like systems. This is not
1635 yet supported when cross-compiling.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001636
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001637= Mbed TLS 3.0.0 branch released 2021-07-07
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001638
1639API changes
1640 * Remove HAVEGE module.
1641 The design of HAVEGE makes it unsuitable for microcontrollers. Platforms
1642 with a more complex CPU usually have an operating system interface that
1643 provides better randomness. Instead of HAVEGE, declare OS or hardware RNG
1644 interfaces with mbedtls_entropy_add_source() and/or use an entropy seed
1645 file created securely during device provisioning. See
Dave Rodgmanb3196842022-10-12 16:47:08 +01001646 https://mbed-tls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kb/how-to/add-entropy-sources-to-entropy-pool/ for
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001647 more information.
1648 * Add missing const attributes to API functions.
1649 * Remove helpers for the transition from Mbed TLS 1.3 to Mbed TLS 2.0: the
1650 header compat-1.3.h and the script rename.pl.
1651 * Remove certs module from the API.
1652 Transfer keys and certificates embedded in the library to the test
1653 component. This contributes to minimizing library API and discourages
1654 users from using unsafe keys in production.
1655 * Move alt helpers and definitions.
1656 Various helpers and definitions available for use in alt implementations
1657 have been moved out of the include/ directory and into the library/
1658 directory. The files concerned are ecp_internal.h and rsa_internal.h
Gilles Peskine6a2fb612021-05-24 22:25:04 +02001659 which have also been renamed to ecp_internal_alt.h and rsa_alt_helpers.h
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001660 respectively.
1661 * Move internal headers.
1662 Header files that were only meant for the library's internal use and
1663 were not meant to be used in application code have been moved out of
1664 the include/ directory. The headers concerned are bn_mul.h, aesni.h,
1665 padlock.h, entropy_poll.h and *_internal.h.
1666 * Drop support for parsing SSLv2 ClientHello
1667 (MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_SUPPORT_SSLV2_CLIENT_HELLO).
1668 * Drop support for SSLv3 (MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_SSL3).
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001669 * Drop support for TLS record-level compression (MBEDTLS_ZLIB_SUPPORT).
1670 * Drop support for RC4 TLS ciphersuites.
1671 * Drop support for single-DES ciphersuites.
1672 * Drop support for MBEDTLS_SSL_HW_RECORD_ACCEL.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001673 * Update AEAD output size macros to bring them in line with the PSA Crypto
1674 API version 1.0 spec. This version of the spec parameterizes them on the
1675 key type used, as well as the key bit-size in the case of
1676 PSA_AEAD_TAG_LENGTH.
1677 * Add configuration option MBEDTLS_X509_REMOVE_INFO which
1678 removes the mbedtls_x509_*_info(), mbedtls_debug_print_crt()
1679 as well as other functions and constants only used by
1680 those functions. This reduces the code footprint by
1681 several kB.
1682 * Remove SSL error codes `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CERTIFICATE_REQUIRED`
1683 and `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INVALID_VERIFY_HASH` which are never
1684 returned from the public SSL API.
1685 * Remove `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CERTIFICATE_TOO_LARGE` and return
1686 `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL` instead.
Dave Rodgman814b0992021-07-02 12:11:14 +01001687 * The output parameter of mbedtls_sha512_finish, mbedtls_sha512,
1688 mbedtls_sha256_finish and mbedtls_sha256 now has a pointer type
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001689 rather than array type. This removes spurious warnings in some compilers
1690 when outputting a SHA-384 or SHA-224 hash into a buffer of exactly
1691 the hash size.
1692 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TEST_NULL_ENTROPY config option. Fixes #4388.
1693 * The interface of the GCM module has changed to remove restrictions on
1694 how the input to multipart operations is broken down. mbedtls_gcm_finish()
Dave Rodgmaneaef0b72021-07-01 16:59:13 +01001695 now takes extra output parameters for the last partial output block.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001696 mbedtls_gcm_update() now takes extra parameters for the output length.
1697 The software implementation always produces the full output at each
1698 call to mbedtls_gcm_update(), but alternative implementations activated
1699 by MBEDTLS_GCM_ALT may delay partial blocks to the next call to
1700 mbedtls_gcm_update() or mbedtls_gcm_finish(). Furthermore, applications
1701 no longer pass the associated data to mbedtls_gcm_starts(), but to the
1702 new function mbedtls_gcm_update_ad().
1703 These changes are backward compatible for users of the cipher API.
1704 * Replace MBEDTLS_SHA512_NO_SHA384 config option with MBEDTLS_SHA384_C.
1705 This separates config option enabling the SHA384 algorithm from option
1706 enabling the SHA512 algorithm. Fixes #4034.
1707 * Introduce MBEDTLS_SHA224_C.
1708 This separates config option enabling the SHA224 algorithm from option
1709 enabling SHA256.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001710 * The getter and setter API of the SSL session cache (used for
1711 session-ID based session resumption) has changed to that of
1712 a key-value store with keys being session IDs and values
1713 being opaque instances of `mbedtls_ssl_session`.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001714 * Remove the mode parameter from RSA operation functions. Signature and
1715 decryption functions now always use the private key and verification and
1716 encryption use the public key. Verification functions also no longer have
1717 RNG parameters.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001718 * Modify semantics of `mbedtls_ssl_conf_[opaque_]psk()`:
1719 In Mbed TLS 2.X, the API prescribes that later calls overwrite
1720 the effect of earlier calls. In Mbed TLS 3.0, calling
1721 `mbedtls_ssl_conf_[opaque_]psk()` more than once will fail,
1722 leaving the PSK that was configured first intact.
1723 Support for more than one PSK may be added in 3.X.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001724 * The function mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension() has an extra parameter
1725 which allows to mark an extension as critical. Fixes #4055.
1726 * For multi-part AEAD operations with the cipher module, calling
1727 mbedtls_cipher_finish() is now mandatory. Previously the documentation
1728 was unclear on this point, and this function happened to never do
1729 anything with the currently implemented AEADs, so in practice it was
1730 possible to skip calling it, which is no longer supported.
1731 * The option MBEDTLS_ECP_FIXED_POINT_OPTIM use pre-computed comb tables
1732 instead of computing tables in runtime. Thus, this option now increase
1733 code size, and it does not increase RAM usage in runtime anymore.
1734 * Remove the SSL APIs mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() and
1735 mbedtls_ssl_get_output_max_frag_len(), and add a new API
1736 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_in_record_payload(), complementing the existing
1737 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_out_record_payload().
1738 Uses of mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() and
1739 mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() should be replaced by
1740 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_in_record_payload() and
1741 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_out_record_payload(), respectively.
1742 * mbedtls_rsa_init() now always selects the PKCS#1v1.5 encoding for an RSA
1743 key. To use an RSA key with PSS or OAEP, call mbedtls_rsa_set_padding()
1744 after initializing the context. mbedtls_rsa_set_padding() now returns an
1745 error if its parameters are invalid.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001746 * Replace MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_RESPECT_CLIENT_PREFERENCE by a runtime
1747 configuration function mbedtls_ssl_conf_preference_order(). Fixes #4398.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001748 * Instead of accessing the len field of a DHM context, which is no longer
1749 supported, use the new function mbedtls_dhm_get_len() .
1750 * In modules that implement cryptographic hash functions, many functions
1751 mbedtls_xxx() now return int instead of void, and the corresponding
1752 function mbedtls_xxx_ret() which was identical except for returning int
1753 has been removed. This also concerns mbedtls_xxx_drbg_update(). See the
1754 migration guide for more information. Fixes #4212.
1755 * For all functions that take a random number generator (RNG) as a
1756 parameter, this parameter is now mandatory (that is, NULL is not an
1757 acceptable value). Functions which previously accepted NULL and now
1758 reject it are: the X.509 CRT and CSR writing functions; the PK and RSA
1759 sign and decrypt function; mbedtls_rsa_private(); the functions
1760 in DHM and ECDH that compute the shared secret; the scalar multiplication
1761 functions in ECP.
1762 * The following functions now require an RNG parameter:
1763 mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(),
1764 mbedtls_pk_parse_key(), mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile().
1765 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_export_keys_ext_cb() and
1766 mbedtls_ssl_conf_export_keys_cb() have been removed and
1767 replaced by a new API mbedtls_ssl_set_export_keys_cb().
1768 Raw keys and IVs are no longer passed to the callback.
1769 Further, callbacks now receive an additional parameter
1770 indicating the type of secret that's being exported,
1771 paving the way for the larger number of secrets
1772 in TLS 1.3. Finally, the key export callback and
1773 context are now connection-specific.
1774 * Signature functions in the RSA and PK modules now require the hash
1775 length parameter to be the size of the hash input. For RSA signatures
1776 other than raw PKCS#1 v1.5, this must match the output size of the
1777 specified hash algorithm.
1778 * The functions mbedtls_pk_sign(), mbedtls_pk_sign_restartable(),
1779 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature() and
1780 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature_restartable() now take an extra parameter
1781 indicating the size of the output buffer for the signature.
1782 * Implement one-shot cipher functions, psa_cipher_encrypt and
1783 psa_cipher_decrypt, according to the PSA Crypto API 1.0.0
1784 specification.
1785 * Direct access to fields of structures declared in public headers is no
1786 longer supported except for fields that are documented public. Use accessor
1787 functions instead. For more information, see the migration guide entry
1788 "Most structure fields are now private".
Dave Rodgman9bd03892021-07-01 16:59:49 +01001789 * mbedtls_ssl_get_session_pointer() has been removed, and
1790 mbedtls_ssl_{set,get}_session() may now only be called once for any given
1791 SSL context.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001792
1793Default behavior changes
1794 * Enable by default the functionalities which have no reason to be disabled.
1795 They are: ARIA block cipher, CMAC mode, elliptic curve J-PAKE library and
1796 Key Wrapping mode as defined in NIST SP 800-38F. Fixes #4036.
1797 * Some default policies for X.509 certificate verification and TLS have
1798 changed: curves and hashes weaker than 255 bits are no longer accepted
1799 by default. The default order in TLS now favors faster curves over larger
1800 curves.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001801
1802Requirement changes
1803 * The library now uses the %zu format specifier with the printf() family of
1804 functions, so requires a toolchain that supports it. This change does not
1805 affect the maintained LTS branches, so when contributing changes please
1806 bear this in mind and do not add them to backported code.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001807 * If you build the development version of Mbed TLS, rather than an official
1808 release, some configuration-independent files are now generated at build
1809 time rather than checked into source control. This includes some library
1810 source files as well as the Visual Studio solution. Perl, Python 3 and a
1811 C compiler for the host platform are required. See Generated source files
1812 in the development branch in README.md for more information.
1813 * Refresh the minimum supported versions of tools to build the
1814 library. CMake versions older than 3.10.2 and Python older
1815 than 3.6 are no longer supported.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001816
1817Removals
1818 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
1819 compile-time option, which was off by default. Users should not trust
1820 certificates signed with SHA-1 due to the known attacks against SHA-1.

Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001823 * Removed deprecated things in psa/crypto_compat.h. Fixes #4284
1824 * Removed deprecated functions from hashing modules. Fixes #4280.
1825 * Remove PKCS#11 library wrapper. PKCS#11 has limited functionality,
1826 lacks automated tests and has scarce documentation. Also, PSA Crypto
1827 provides a more flexible private key management.
1828 More details on PCKS#11 wrapper removal can be found in the mailing list
1829 https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/000024.html
1830 * Remove deprecated error codes. Fix #4283
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001831 * Remove MBEDTLS_ENABLE_WEAK_CIPHERSUITES configuration option. Fixes #4416.
1832 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
1833 compile-time option. This option has been inactive for a long time.
1834 Please use the `lifetime` parameter of `mbedtls_ssl_ticket_setup()`
1835 instead.
1836 * Remove the following deprecated functions and constants of hex-encoded
1837 primes based on RFC 5114 and RFC 3526 from library code and tests:
1838 mbedtls_aes_encrypt(), mbedtls_aes_decrypt(), mbedtls_mpi_is_prime(),
1839 mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt(), mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt(),
1840 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update(), mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update(),
1841 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature_det(), mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det(),
1842 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param(), mbedtls_ssl_get_max_frag_len(),
1843 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC5114_MODP_2048_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC5114_MODP_2048_G,
1844 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_G,
1845 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_3072_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_3072_G,
1846 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_4096_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_4096_G.
1847 Remove the deprecated file: include/mbedtls/net.h. Fixes #4282.
1848 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_MAX_CONTENT_LEN configuration option, since
1849 MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN and MBEDTLS_SSL_OUT_CONTENT_LEN replace
1850 it. Fixes #4362.
1851 * Remove the MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_CHECKING option and enable by default its
1852 previous action. Fixes #4361.
1853 * Remove support for TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0, as well as support for
1854 CBC record splitting, fallback SCSV, and the ability to configure
1855 ciphersuites per version, which are no longer relevant. This removes the
1856 configuration options MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1,
1857 MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_1, MBEDTLS_SSL_CBC_RECORD_SPLITTING and
1858 MBEDTLS_SSL_FALLBACK_SCSV as well as the functions
1859 mbedtls_ssl_conf_cbc_record_splitting(),
1860 mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_ssl_tls(), mbedtls_ssl_conf_fallback(),
1861 and mbedtls_ssl_conf_ciphersuites_for_version(). Fixes #4286.
1862 * The RSA module no longer supports private-key operations with the public
1863 key and vice versa.
1864 * Remove the MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_BADMAC_LIMIT config.h option. Fixes #4403.
1865 * Remove all the 3DES ciphersuites:
1866 MBEDTLS_TLS_DHE_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1867 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1868 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1869 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1870 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1871 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1872 MBEDTLS_TLS_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1873 MBEDTLS_TLS_RSA_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1874 MBEDTLS_TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA. Remove the
1875 MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES option which is no longer relevant.
1876 Fixes #4367.
1877 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_EXTENSIONS_NON_V3 option and let the code
1878 behave as if it was always disabled. Fixes #4386.
1879 * Remove MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT config option since this was purely for
1880 backward compatibility which is no longer supported. Addresses #4404.
1881 * Remove the following macros: MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS,
1882 MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS_ASSERT, MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED,
1883 MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED_ALT. Fixes #4313.
1884 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION config.h
1885 option. The mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() is the way to go for
1886 migration path. Fixes #4378.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001887 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_CHECK_KEY_USAGE and
1888 MBEDTLS_X509_CHECK_EXTENDED_KEY_USAGE config.h options and let the code
1889 behave as if they were always enabled. Fixes #4405.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001890 * MBEDTLS_ECP_MAX_BITS is no longer a configuration option because it is
1891 now determined automatically based on supported curves.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001892 * Remove the following functions: mbedtls_timing_self_test(),
1893 mbedtls_hardclock_poll(), mbedtls_timing_hardclock() and
1894 mbedtls_set_alarm(). Fixes #4083.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001895 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG has been removed as
1896 it no longer had any effect.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001897 * Remove all support for MD2, MD4, RC4, Blowfish and XTEA. This removes the
1898 corresponding modules and all their APIs and related configuration
1899 options. Fixes #4084.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001900 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC and also remove
1901 MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT config option. Users are better served by
1902 using a CCM-8 ciphersuite than a CBC ciphersuite with truncated HMAC.
1903 See issue #4341 for more details.
1904 * Remove the compile-time option
1905 MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_KEY_EXCHANGE.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001906
1907Features
1908 * Add mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_sign_ext() function allowing to generate a
1909 signature with a specific salt length. This function allows to validate
1910 test cases provided in the NIST's CAVP test suite. Contributed by Cédric
1911 Meuter in PR #3183.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001912 * Added support for built-in driver keys through the PSA opaque crypto
1913 driver interface. Refer to the documentation of
1914 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_BUILTIN_KEYS for more information.
1915 * Implement psa_sign_message() and psa_verify_message().
1916 * The multi-part GCM interface (mbedtls_gcm_update() or
1917 mbedtls_cipher_update()) no longer requires the size of partial inputs to
1918 be a multiple of 16.
1919 * The multi-part GCM interface now supports chunked associated data through
1920 multiple calls to mbedtls_gcm_update_ad().
1921 * The new function mbedtls_mpi_random() generates a random value in a
1922 given range uniformly.
1923 * Alternative implementations of the AES, DHM, ECJPAKE, ECP, RSA and timing
1924 modules had undocumented constraints on their context types. These
1925 constraints have been relaxed.
1926 See docs/architecture/alternative-implementations.md for the remaining
1927 constraints.
1928 * The new functions mbedtls_dhm_get_len() and mbedtls_dhm_get_bitlen()
1929 query the size of the modulus in a Diffie-Hellman context.
1930 * The new function mbedtls_dhm_get_value() copy a field out of a
1931 Diffie-Hellman context.
1932 * Use the new function mbedtls_ecjpake_set_point_format() to select the
1933 point format for ECJPAKE instead of accessing the point_format field
1934 directly, which is no longer supported.
1935 * Implement psa_mac_compute() and psa_mac_verify() as defined in the
1936 PSA Cryptograpy API 1.0.0 specification.
1937
1938Security
Dave Rodgman5b13f602021-07-05 18:09:16 +01001939 * Fix a bias in the generation of finite-field Diffie-Hellman-Merkle (DHM)
1940 private keys and of blinding values for DHM and elliptic curves (ECP)
1941 computations. Reported by FlorianF89 in #4245.
1942 * Fix a potential side channel vulnerability in ECDSA ephemeral key generation.
1943 An adversary who is capable of very precise timing measurements could
1944 learn partial information about the leading bits of the nonce used for the
1945 signature, allowing the recovery of the private key after observing a
1946 large number of signature operations. This completes a partial fix in
1947 Mbed TLS 2.20.0.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001948 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough information
1949 about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking
1950 a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the
1951 victim performing a single private-key operation. Found and reported by
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001952 Zili KOU, Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001953 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough timing
1954 information (typically, a co-located process) could recover a Curve25519
1955 or Curve448 static ECDH key after inputting a chosen public key and
1956 observing the victim performing the corresponding private-key operation.
1957 Found and reported by Leila Batina, Lukas Chmielewski, Björn Haase, Niels
1958 Samwel and Peter Schwabe.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001959
1960Bugfix
1961 * Fix premature fopen() call in mbedtls_entropy_write_seed_file which may
1962 lead to the seed file corruption in case if the path to the seed file is
1963 equal to MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_NV_SEED_FILE. Contributed by Victor
1964 Krasnoshchok in #3616.
1965 * PSA functions creating a key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT rather
1966 than PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE when the identifier specified for the key
1967 to create is not valid, bringing them in line with version 1.0.0 of the
1968 specification. Fix #4271.
1969 * Add printf function attributes to mbedtls_debug_print_msg to ensure we
1970 get printf format specifier warnings.
1971 * PSA functions other than psa_open_key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE
1972 rather than PSA_ERROR_DOES_NOT_EXIST for an invalid handle, bringing them
1973 in line with version 1.0.0 of the specification. Fix #4162.
1974 * Fix a bug in ECDSA that would cause it to fail when the hash is all-bits
1975 zero. Fixes #1792
Gilles Peskinef4998b02021-06-10 15:51:54 +02001976 * Fix some cases in the bignum module where the library constructed an
1977 unintended representation of the value 0 which was not processed
1978 correctly by some bignum operations. This could happen when
1979 mbedtls_mpi_read_string() was called on "-0", or when
1980 mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi() and mbedtls_mpi_mul_int() was called with one of
1981 the arguments being negative and the other being 0. Fixes #4643.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001982 * Fix a compilation error when MBEDTLS_ECP_RANDOMIZE_MXZ_ALT is
1983 defined. Fixes #4217.
1984 * Fix an incorrect error code when parsing a PKCS#8 private key.
1985 * In a TLS client, enforce the Diffie-Hellman minimum parameter size
1986 set with mbedtls_ssl_conf_dhm_min_bitlen() precisely. Before, the
1987 minimum size was rounded down to the nearest multiple of 8.
1988 * In library/net_sockets.c, _POSIX_C_SOURCE and _XOPEN_SOURCE are
1989 defined to specific values. If the code is used in a context
1990 where these are already defined, this can result in a compilation
1991 error. Instead, assume that if they are defined, the values will
1992 be adequate to build Mbed TLS.
1993 * With MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C disabled, some functions were getting built
1994 nonetheless, resulting in undefined reference errors when building a
1995 shared library. Reported by Guillermo Garcia M. in #4411.
1996 * The cipher suite TLS-RSA-WITH-CAMELLIA-256-GCM-SHA384 was not available
1997 when SHA-1 was disabled and was offered when SHA-1 was enabled but SHA-384
1998 was disabled. Fix the dependency. Fixes #4472.
1999 * Do not offer SHA384 cipher suites when SHA-384 is disabled. Fixes #4499.
2000 * Fix test suite code on platforms where int32_t is not int, such as
2001 Arm Cortex-M. Fixes #4530.
2002 * Fix some issues affecting MBEDTLS_ARIA_ALT implementations: a misplaced
2003 directive in a header and a missing initialization in the self-test.
2004 * Fix a missing initialization in the Camellia self-test, affecting
2005 MBEDTLS_CAMELLIA_ALT implementations.
2006 * Restore the ability to configure PSA via Mbed TLS options to support RSA
2007 key pair operations but exclude RSA key generation. When MBEDTLS_GENPRIME
2008 is not defined PSA will no longer attempt to use mbedtls_rsa_gen_key().
2009 Fixes #4512.
2010 * Fix a regression introduced in 2.24.0 which broke (D)TLS CBC ciphersuites
2011 (when the encrypt-then-MAC extension is not in use) with some ALT
2012 implementations of the underlying hash (SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384), causing
2013 the affected side to wrongly reject valid messages. Fixes #4118.
2014 * Remove outdated check-config.h check that prevented implementing the
2015 timing module on Mbed OS. Fixes #4633.
2016 * Fix PSA_ALG_TLS12_PRF and PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS being too permissive
2017 about missing inputs.
2018 * Fix mbedtls_net_poll() and mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() often failing with
2019 MBEDTLS_ERR_NET_POLL_FAILED on Windows. Fixes #4465.
2020 * Fix a resource leak in a test suite with an alternative AES
2021 implementation. Fixes #4176.
2022 * Fix a crash in mbedtls_mpi_debug_mpi on a bignum having 0 limbs. This
2023 could notably be triggered by setting the TLS debug level to 3 or above
2024 and using a Montgomery curve for the key exchange. Reported by lhuang04
2025 in #4578. Fixes #4608.
2026 * psa_verify_hash() was relying on implementation-specific behavior of
2027 mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_verify() and was causing failures in some _ALT
2028 implementations. This reliance is now removed. Fixes #3990.
2029 * Disallow inputs of length different from the corresponding hash when
2030 signing or verifying with PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS (The PSA Crypto API mandates
2031 that PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS uses the same hash throughout the algorithm.)
2032 * Fix a null pointer dereference when mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod() was called with
2033 A=0 represented with 0 limbs. Up to and including Mbed TLS 2.26, this bug
2034 could not be triggered by code that constructed A with one of the
2035 mbedtls_mpi_read_xxx functions (including in particular TLS code) since
2036 those always built an mpi object with at least one limb.
2037 Credit to OSS-Fuzz. Fixes #4641.
2038 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_gcd(G,A,B) when the value of B is zero. This had no
2039 effect on Mbed TLS's internal use of mbedtls_mpi_gcd(), but may affect
2040 applications that call mbedtls_mpi_gcd() directly. Fixes #4642.
2041 * The PSA API no longer allows the creation or destruction of keys with a
2042 read-only lifetime. The persistence level PSA_KEY_PERSISTENCE_READ_ONLY
2043 can now only be used as intended, for keys that cannot be modified through
2044 normal use of the API.
2045 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SPM is enabled, crypto_spe.h was not included
2046 in all the right places. Include it from crypto_platform.h, which is
2047 the natural place. Fixes #4649.
2048 * Fix which alert is sent in some cases to conform to the
2049 applicable RFC: on an invalid Finished message value, an
2050 invalid max_fragment_length extension, or an
2051 unsupported extension used by the server.
Dave Rodgmana84a8eb2021-07-01 17:01:04 +01002052 * Correct (change from 12 to 13 bytes) the value of the macro describing the
2053 maximum nonce length returned by psa_aead_generate_nonce().
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01002054
2055Changes
2056 * Fix the setting of the read timeout in the DTLS sample programs.
2057 * Add extra printf compiler warning flags to builds.
2058 * Fix memsan build false positive in x509_crt.c with clang 11
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01002059 * Alternative implementations of CMAC may now opt to not support 3DES as a
2060 CMAC block cipher, and still pass the CMAC self test.
2061 * Remove the AES sample application programs/aes/aescrypt2 which shows
2062 bad cryptographic practice. Fix #1906.
2063 * Remove configs/config-psa-crypto.h, which no longer had any intended
2064 differences from the default configuration, but had accidentally diverged.
2065 * When building the test suites with GNU make, invoke python3 or python, not
2066 python2, which is no longer supported upstream.
2067 * fix build failure on MinGW toolchain when __USE_MING_ANSI_STDIO is on.
2068 When that flag is on, standard GNU C printf format specifiers
2069 should be used.
2070 * Replace MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_PADDING_GRANULARITY and
2071 MBEDTLS_SSL_TLS1_3_PADDING_GRANULARITY with a new single unified option
2072 MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_TLS1_3_PADDING_GRANULARITY. Fixes #4335.
2073 * Reduce the default value of MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE. This reduces RAM usage
2074 during ECC operations at a negligible performance cost.
2075 * mbedtls_mpi_read_binary(), mbedtls_mpi_read_binary_le() and
2076 mbedtls_mpi_read_string() now construct an mbedtls_mpi object with 0 limbs
2077 when their input has length 0. Note that this is an implementation detail
2078 and can change at any time, so this change should be transparent, but it
2079 may result in mbedtls_mpi_write_binary() or mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
2080 now writing an empty string where it previously wrote one or more
2081 zero digits when operating from values constructed with an mpi_read
2082 function and some mpi operations.
2083 * Add CMake package config generation for CMake projects consuming Mbed TLS.
2084 * config.h has been split into build_info.h and mbedtls_config.h
2085 build_info.h is intended to be included from C code directly, while
2086 mbedtls_config.h is intended to be edited by end users wishing to
2087 change the build configuration, and should generally only be included from
2088 build_info.h.
2089 * The handling of MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE has been moved into build_info.h.
2090 * A config file version symbol, MBEDTLS_CONFIG_VERSION was introduced.
2091 Defining it to a particular value will ensure that Mbed TLS interprets
2092 the config file in a way that's compatible with the config file format
2093 used by the Mbed TLS release whose MBEDTLS_VERSION_NUMBER has the same
2094 value.
2095 The only value supported by Mbed TLS 3.0.0 is 0x03000000.
2096 * Various changes to which alert and/or error code may be returned
2097 * during the TLS handshake.
2098 * Implicitly add PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_MESSAGE key usage policy flag when
2099 PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_HASH flag is set and PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_MESSAGE flag
2100 when PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_HASH flag is set. This usage flag extension
2101 is also applied when loading a key from storage.

2104
2105API changes
2106 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API output buffer size macros to bring them in line
2107 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
2108 * The API glue function mbedtls_ecc_group_of_psa() now takes the curve size
2109 in bits rather than bytes, with an additional flag to indicate if the
2110 size may have been rounded up to a whole number of bytes.
2111 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API AEAD tag length macros to bring them in line
2112 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
2113
2114Default behavior changes
2115 * In mbedtls_rsa_context objects, the ver field was formerly documented
2116 as always 0. It is now reserved for internal purposes and may take
2117 different values.
2118
2119New deprecations
2120 * PSA_KEY_EXPORT_MAX_SIZE, PSA_HASH_SIZE, PSA_MAC_FINAL_SIZE,
2121 PSA_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE, PSA_MAX_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE and
2122 PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS_MAX_PSK_LEN have been renamed, and the old names
2123 deprecated.
2124 * PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_DEFAULT_TAG_LENGTH and PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_TAG_LENGTH
2125 have been renamed, and the old names deprecated.
2126
2127Features
2128 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now use HMAC_DRBG instead of CTR_DRBG.
2129 CTR_DRBG is used by default if it is available, but you can override
2130 this choice by setting MBEDTLS_PSA_HMAC_DRBG_MD_TYPE at compile time.
2131 Fix #3354.
2132 * Automatic fallback to a software implementation of ECP when
2133 MBEDTLS_ECP_xxx_ALT accelerator hooks are in use can now be turned off
2134 through setting the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_FALLBACK.
2135 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now be configured to use less static RAM by
2136 tweaking the setting for the maximum amount of keys simultaneously in RAM.
2137 MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT sets the maximum number of volatile keys that
2138 can exist simultaneously. It has a sensible default if not overridden.
2139 * Partial implementation of the PSA crypto driver interface: Mbed TLS can
2140 now use an external random generator instead of the library's own
2141 entropy collection and DRBG code. Enable MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG
2142 and see the documentation of mbedtls_psa_external_get_random() for details.
2143 * Applications using both mbedtls_xxx and psa_xxx functions (for example,
2144 applications using TLS and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO) can now use the PSA
2145 random generator with mbedtls_xxx functions. See the documentation of
2146 mbedtls_psa_get_random() for details.
2147 * In the PSA API, the policy for a MAC or AEAD algorithm can specify a
2148 minimum MAC or tag length thanks to the new wildcards
2149 PSA_ALG_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_MAC and
2150 PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_TAG.

2152Security
2153 * Fix a security reduction in CTR_DRBG when the initial seeding obtained a
2154 nonce from entropy. Applications were affected if they called
2155 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len(), if they called
2156 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() with a size that was 3/2 times the key
2157 length, or when the entropy module uses SHA-256 and CTR_DRBG uses AES-256.
2158 In such cases, a random nonce was necessary to achieve the advertised
2159 security strength, but the code incorrectly used a constant instead of
2160 entropy from the nonce.
2161 Found by John Stroebel in #3819 and fixed in #3973.
2162 * Fix a buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when calculating
2163 |A| - |B| where |B| is larger than |A| and has more limbs (so the
2164 function should return MBEDTLS_ERR_MPI_NEGATIVE_VALUE). Only
2165 applications calling mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() directly are affected:
2166 all calls inside the library were safe since this function is
2167 only called with |A| >= |B|. Reported by Guido Vranken in #4042.
2168 * Fix an errorneous estimation for an internal buffer in
2169 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(). If MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE is set to an odd
2170 value the function might fail to write a private RSA keys of the largest
2171 supported size.
2172 Found by Daniel Otte, reported in #4093 and fixed in #4094.
2173 * Fix a stack buffer overflow with mbedtls_net_poll() and
2174 mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() when given a file descriptor that is
2175 beyond FD_SETSIZE. Reported by FigBug in #4169.
2176 * Guard against strong local side channel attack against base64 tables by
2177 making access aceess to them use constant flow code.
2178
2179Bugfix
2180 * Fix use-after-scope error in programs/ssl/ssl_client2.c and ssl_server2.c
2181 * Fix memory leak that occured when calling psa_close_key() on a
2182 wrapped key with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C defined.
2183 * Fix an incorrect error code if an RSA private operation glitched.
2184 * Fix a memory leak in an error case in psa_generate_derived_key_internal().
2185 * Fix a resource leak in CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C
2186 is enabled, on platforms where initializing a mutex allocates resources.
2187 This was a regression introduced in the previous release. Reported in
2188 #4017, #4045 and #4071.
2189 * Ensure that calling mbedtls_rsa_free() or mbedtls_entropy_free()
2190 twice is safe. This happens for RSA when some Mbed TLS library functions
2191 fail. Such a double-free was not safe when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C was
2192 enabled on platforms where freeing a mutex twice is not safe.
2193 * Fix a resource leak in a bad-arguments case of mbedtls_rsa_gen_key()
2194 when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled on platforms where initializing
2195 a mutex allocates resources.
2196 * Fixes a bug where, if the library was configured to include support for
2197 both the old SE interface and the new PSA driver interface, external keys were
2198 not loaded from storage. This was fixed by #3996.
2199 * This change makes 'mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_basic_constraints'
2200 consistent with RFC 5280 4.2.1.9 which says: "Conforming CAs MUST
2201 include this extension in all CA certificates that contain public keys
2202 used to validate digital signatures on certificates and MUST mark the
2203 extension as critical in such certificates." Previous to this change,
2204 the extension was always marked as non-critical. This was fixed by
2205 #3698.
2206
2207Changes
2208 * A new library C file psa_crypto_client.c has been created to contain
2209 the PSA code needed by a PSA crypto client when the PSA crypto
2210 implementation is not included into the library.
2211 * On recent enough versions of FreeBSD and DragonFlyBSD, the entropy module
2212 now uses the getrandom syscall instead of reading from /dev/urandom.

2216API changes
2217 * The numerical values of the PSA Crypto API macros have been updated to
2218 conform to version 1.0.0 of the specification.
2219 * PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER replaces PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4.
2220 The underlying stream cipher is determined by the key type
2221 (PSA_KEY_TYPE_CHACHA20 or PSA_KEY_TYPE_ARC4).
2222 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
2223 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() no longer accept NIST_KW contexts,
2224 as they have no way to check if the output buffer is large enough.
2225 Please use mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
2226 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext() instead. Credit to OSS-Fuzz and
2227 Cryptofuzz. Fixes #3665.

2229Requirement changes
Janos Follathe9216262020-12-10 11:03:01 +00002230 * Update the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.12. This silences a

Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00002232
2233New deprecations
Bence Szépkútife9a4252021-02-08 18:13:02 +01002234 * PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4 have been deprecated.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00002235 Use PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER instead.
2236 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
2237 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() are deprecated in favour of the new
2238 functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
2239 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext(). Please note that with AEAD ciphers,
2240 these new functions always append the tag to the ciphertext, and include
2241 the tag in the ciphertext length.

2243Features
Janos Follathd6ce1162020-12-09 16:32:01 +00002244 * Partial implementation of the new PSA Crypto accelerator APIs. (Symmetric
2245 ciphers, asymmetric signing/verification and key generation, validate_key
2246 entry point, and export_public_key interface.)
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00002247 * Add support for ECB to the PSA cipher API.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00002248 * In PSA, allow using a key declared with a base key agreement algorithm
2249 in combined key agreement and derivation operations, as long as the key
2250 agreement algorithm in use matches the algorithm the key was declared with.
2251 This is currently non-standard behaviour, but expected to make it into a
2252 future revision of the PSA Crypto standard.
2253 * Add MBEDTLS_TARGET_PREFIX CMake variable, which is prefixed to the mbedtls,
2254 mbedcrypto, mbedx509 and apidoc CMake target names. This can be used by
2255 external CMake projects that include this one to avoid CMake target name
2256 clashes. The default value of this variable is "", so default target names
2257 are unchanged.
2258 * Add support for DTLS-SRTP as defined in RFC 5764. Contributed by Johan
2259 Pascal, improved by Ron Eldor.
2260 * In the PSA API, it is no longer necessary to open persistent keys:
2261 operations now accept the key identifier. The type psa_key_handle_t is now
2262 identical to psa_key_id_t instead of being platform-defined. This bridges
2263 the last major gap to compliance with the PSA Cryptography specification
2264 version 1.0.0. Opening persistent keys is still supported for backward
2265 compatibility, but will be deprecated and later removed in future
2266 releases.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00002267 * PSA_AEAD_NONCE_LENGTH, PSA_AEAD_NONCE_MAX_SIZE, PSA_CIPHER_IV_LENGTH and
2268 PSA_CIPHER_IV_MAX_SIZE macros have been added as defined in version
2269 1.0.0 of the PSA Crypto API specification.
2270
2271Security
2272 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
2273 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() would write past the minimum documented
2274 size of the output buffer when used with NIST_KW. As a result, code using
2275 those functions as documented with NIST_KW could have a buffer overwrite
2276 of up to 15 bytes, with consequences ranging up to arbitrary code
2277 execution depending on the location of the output buffer.
2278 * Limit the size of calculations performed by mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod to
2279 MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE to prevent a potential denial of service when
2280 generating Diffie-Hellman key pairs. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
2281 * A failure of the random generator was ignored in mbedtls_mpi_fill_random(),
2282 which is how most uses of randomization in asymmetric cryptography
2283 (including key generation, intermediate value randomization and blinding)
2284 are implemented. This could cause failures or the silent use of non-random
2285 values. A random generator can fail if it needs reseeding and cannot not
2286 obtain entropy, or due to an internal failure (which, for Mbed TLS's own
2287 CTR_DRBG or HMAC_DRBG, can only happen due to a misconfiguration).
2288 * Fix a compliance issue whereby we were not checking the tag on the
2289 algorithm parameters (only the size) when comparing the signature in the
2290 description part of the cert to the real signature. This meant that a
2291 NULL algorithm parameters entry would look identical to an array of REAL
2292 (size zero) to the library and thus the certificate would be considered
2293 valid. However, if the parameters do not match in *any* way then the
2294 certificate should be considered invalid, and indeed OpenSSL marks these
2295 certs as invalid when mbedtls did not.
2296 Many thanks to guidovranken who found this issue via differential fuzzing
2297 and reported it in #3629.
2298 * Zeroising of local buffers and variables which are used for calculations
2299 in mbedtls_pkcs5_pbkdf2_hmac(), mbedtls_internal_sha*_process(),
2300 mbedtls_internal_md*_process() and mbedtls_internal_ripemd160_process()
2301 functions to erase sensitive data from memory. Reported by
2302 Johan Malmgren and Johan Uppman Bruce from Sectra.

Janos Follath76027f62020-12-09 16:28:35 +00002305 * Fix an invalid (but nonzero) return code from mbedtls_pk_parse_subpubkey()
2306 when the input has trailing garbage. Fixes #2512.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00002307 * Fix build failure in configurations where MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is
2308 enabled but ECDSA is disabled. Contributed by jdurkop. Fixes #3294.
2309 * Include the psa_constant_names generated source code in the source tree
2310 instead of generating it at build time. Fixes #3524.
2311 * Fix rsa_prepare_blinding() to retry when the blinding value is not
2312 invertible (mod N), instead of returning MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_RNG_FAILED. This
2313 addresses a regression but is rare in practice (approx. 1 in 2/sqrt(N)).
2314 Found by Synopsys Coverity, fix contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
2315 Fixes #3647.
2316 * Use socklen_t on Android and other POSIX-compliant system
2317 * Fix the build when the macro _GNU_SOURCE is defined to a non-empty value.
2318 Fix #3432.
2319 * Consistently return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT on invalid cipher input
2320 sizes (instead of PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE in some cases) to make the
2321 psa_cipher_* functions compliant with the PSA Crypto API specification.
2322 * mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() now lists Curve25519 and Curve448 under the names
2323 "x25519" and "x448". These curves support ECDH but not ECDSA. If you need
2324 only the curves that support ECDSA, filter the list with
2325 mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do().
2326 * Fix psa_generate_key() returning an error when asked to generate
2327 an ECC key pair on Curve25519 or secp244k1.
2328 * Fix psa_key_derivation_output_key() to allow the output of a combined key
2329 agreement and subsequent key derivation operation to be used as a key
2330 inside of the PSA Crypto core.
2331 * Fix handling of EOF against 0xff bytes and on platforms with unsigned
2332 chars. Fixes a build failure on platforms where char is unsigned. Fixes
2333 #3794.
2334 * Fix an off-by-one error in the additional data length check for
2335 CCM, which allowed encryption with a non-standard length field.
2336 Fixes #3719.
2337 * Correct the default IV size for mbedtls_cipher_info_t structures using
2338 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB to 0, since ECB mode ciphers don't use IVs.
2339 * Make arc4random_buf available on NetBSD and OpenBSD when _POSIX_C_SOURCE is
2340 defined. Fix contributed in #3571.
2341 * Fix conditions for including string.h in error.c. Fixes #3866.
2342 * psa_set_key_id() now also sets the lifetime to persistent for keys located
2343 in a secure element.
2344 * Attempting to create a volatile key with a non-zero key identifier now
2345 fails. Previously the key identifier was just ignored when creating a
2346 volatile key.
2347 * Attempting to create or register a key with a key identifier in the vendor
2348 range now fails.
2349 * Fix build failures on GCC 11. Fixes #3782.
2350 * Add missing arguments of debug message in mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf.
2351 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when the result was negative
2352 (an error condition) and the second operand was aliased to the result.
2353 * Fix a case in elliptic curve arithmetic where an out-of-memory condition
2354 could go undetected, resulting in an incorrect result.
2355 * In CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG, don't reset the reseed interval in seed().
2356 Fixes #2927.
2357 * In PEM writing functions, fill the trailing part of the buffer with null
2358 bytes. This guarantees that the corresponding parsing function can read
2359 the buffer back, which was the case for mbedtls_x509write_{crt,csr}_pem
2360 until this property was inadvertently broken in Mbed TLS 2.19.0.
2361 Fixes #3682.
2362 * Fix a build failure that occurred with the MBEDTLS_AES_SETKEY_DEC_ALT
2363 option on. In this configuration key management methods that are required
2364 for MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_XTS were excluded from the build and made it fail.
2365 Fixes #3818. Reported by John Stroebel.

2367Changes
2368 * Reduce stack usage significantly during sliding window exponentiation.
2369 Reported in #3591 and fix contributed in #3592 by Daniel Otte.
2370 * The PSA persistent storage format is updated to always store the key bits
2371 attribute. No automatic upgrade path is provided. Previously stored keys
2372 must be erased, or manually upgraded based on the key storage format
2373 specification (docs/architecture/mbed-crypto-storage-specification.md).
2374 Fixes #3740.
2375 * Remove the zeroization of a pointer variable in AES rounds. It was valid
2376 but spurious and misleading since it looked like a mistaken attempt to
2377 zeroize the pointed-to buffer. Reported by Antonio de la Piedra, CEA
2378 Leti, France.

2397Features
2398 * The new function mbedtls_ecp_write_key() exports private ECC keys back to
2399 a byte buffer. It is the inverse of the existing mbedtls_ecp_read_key().
2400 * Support building on e2k (Elbrus) architecture: correctly enable
2401 -Wformat-signedness, and fix the code that causes signed-one-bit-field
2402 and sign-compare warnings. Contributed by makise-homura (Igor Molchanov)

2405Security
2406 * Fix a vulnerability in the verification of X.509 certificates when
2407 matching the expected common name (the cn argument of
2408 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()) with the actual certificate name: when the
2409 subjecAltName extension is present, the expected name was compared to any
2410 name in that extension regardless of its type. This means that an
2411 attacker could for example impersonate a 4-bytes or 16-byte domain by
2412 getting a certificate for the corresponding IPv4 or IPv6 (this would
2413 require the attacker to control that IP address, though). Similar attacks
2414 using other subjectAltName name types might be possible. Found and
2415 reported by kFYatek in #3498.
2416 * When checking X.509 CRLs, a certificate was only considered as revoked if
2417 its revocationDate was in the past according to the local clock if
2418 available. In particular, on builds without MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE,
2419 certificates were never considered as revoked. On builds with
2420 MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE, an attacker able to control the local clock (for
2421 example, an untrusted OS attacking a secure enclave) could prevent
2422 revocation of certificates via CRLs. Fixed by no longer checking the
2423 revocationDate field, in accordance with RFC 5280. Reported by
2424 yuemonangong in #3340. Reported independently and fixed by
2425 Raoul Strackx and Jethro Beekman in #3433.
2426 * In (D)TLS record decryption, when using a CBC ciphersuites without the
2427 Encrypt-then-Mac extension, use constant code flow memory access patterns
2428 to extract and check the MAC. This is an improvement to the existing
2429 countermeasure against Lucky 13 attacks. The previous countermeasure was
2430 effective against network-based attackers, but less so against local
2431 attackers. The new countermeasure defends against local attackers, even
2432 if they have access to fine-grained measurements. In particular, this
2433 fixes a local Lucky 13 cache attack found and reported by Tuba Yavuz,
2434 Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihan) Bai, Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler
2435 (University of Florida) and Dave Tian (Purdue University).
2436 * Fix side channel in RSA private key operations and static (finite-field)
2437 Diffie-Hellman. An adversary with precise enough timing and memory access
2438 information (typically an untrusted operating system attacking a secure
2439 enclave) could bypass an existing counter-measure (base blinding) and
2440 potentially fully recover the private key.
2441 * Fix a 1-byte buffer overread in mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_der().
2442 Credit to OSS-Fuzz for detecting the problem and to Philippe Antoine
2443 for pinpointing the problematic code.
2444 * Zeroising of plaintext buffers in mbedtls_ssl_read() to erase unused
2445 application data from memory. Reported in #689 by
2446 Johan Uppman Bruce of Sectra.
2447
2448Bugfix

2450 permission.
Janos Follath6012f0e2020-08-26 15:32:10 +01002451 * Use local labels in mbedtls_padlock_has_support() to fix an invalid symbol
2452 redefinition if the function is inlined.
Janos Follathc18a7b82020-08-26 14:49:16 +01002453 Reported in #3451 and fix contributed in #3452 by okhowang.
2454 * Fix the endianness of Curve25519 keys imported/exported through the PSA
2455 APIs. psa_import_key and psa_export_key will now correctly expect/output
2456 Montgomery keys in little-endian as defined by RFC7748. Contributed by
2457 Steven Cooreman in #3425.
2458 * Fix build errors when the only enabled elliptic curves are Montgomery
2459 curves. Raised by signpainter in #941 and by Taiki-San in #1412. This
2460 also fixes missing declarations reported by Steven Cooreman in #1147.
2461 * Fix self-test failure when the only enabled short Weierstrass elliptic
2462 curve is secp192k1. Fixes #2017.
2463 * PSA key import will now correctly import a Curve25519/Curve448 public key
2464 instead of erroring out. Contributed by Steven Cooreman in #3492.
2465 * Use arc4random_buf on NetBSD instead of rand implementation with cyclical
2466 lower bits. Fix contributed in #3540.
2467 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_md_setup() when using HMAC under low memory
2468 conditions. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #3486.
2469 * Fix bug in redirection of unit test outputs on platforms where stdout is
2470 defined as a macro. First reported in #2311 and fix contributed in #3528.
2471
2472Changes
2473 * Only pass -Wformat-signedness to versions of GCC that support it. Reported
2474 in #3478 and fix contributed in #3479 by okhowang.
2475 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_x509write_csr_der() which
2476 previously could lead to stack overflow on constrained devices.
2477 Contributed by Doru Gucea and Simon Leet in #3464.
2478 * Undefine the ASSERT macro before defining it locally, in case it is defined
2479 in a platform header. Contributed by Abdelatif Guettouche in #3557.
2480 * Update copyright notices to use Linux Foundation guidance. As a result,
2481 the copyright of contributors other than Arm is now acknowledged, and the
2482 years of publishing are no longer tracked in the source files. This also
2483 eliminates the need for the lines declaring the files to be part of
2484 MbedTLS. Fixes #3457.
2485 * Add the command line parameter key_pwd to the ssl_client2 and ssl_server2
2486 example applications which allows to provide a password for the key file
2487 specified through the existing key_file argument. This allows the use of
2488 these applications with password-protected key files. Analogously but for
2489 ssl_server2 only, add the command line parameter key_pwd2 which allows to
2490 set a password for the key file provided through the existing key_file2
2491 argument.

2506 high- and low-level error codes, complementing mbedtls_strerror()
2507 which constructs a string for any error code, including compound
2508 ones, but requires a writable buffer. Contributed by Gaurav Aggarwal
2509 in #3176.
2510 * The new utility programs/ssl/ssl_context_info prints a human-readable
2511 dump of an SSL context saved with mbedtls_ssl_context_save().
2512 * Add support for midipix, a POSIX layer for Microsoft Windows.
2513 * Add new mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() routine which allows
2514 parsing unsupported certificate extensions via user provided callback.
2515 Contributed by Nicola Di Lieto <nicola.dilieto@gmail.com> in #3243 as
2516 a solution to #3241.
2517 * Pass the "certificate policies" extension to the callback supplied to
2518 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() if it contains unsupported
2519 policies (#3419).
2520 * Added support to entropy_poll for the kern.arandom syscall supported on
2521 some BSD systems. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3423.
2522 * Add support for Windows 2000 in net_sockets. Contributed by opatomic. #3239

2525 * Fix a side channel vulnerability in modular exponentiation that could
2526 reveal an RSA private key used in a secure enclave. Noticed by Sangho Lee,
2527 Ming-Wei Shih, Prasun Gera, Taesoo Kim and Hyesoon Kim (Georgia Institute
2528 of Technology); and Marcus Peinado (Microsoft Research). Reported by Raoul
2529 Strackx (Fortanix) in #3394.
2530 * Fix side channel in mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv() and
2531 mbedtls_pk_parse_key() / mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile() (when loading a
2532 private key that didn't include the uncompressed public key), as well as
2533 mbedtls_ecp_mul() / mbedtls_ecp_mul_restartable() when called with a NULL
2534 f_rng argument. An attacker with access to precise enough timing and
2535 memory access information (typically an untrusted operating system
2536 attacking a secure enclave) could fully recover the ECC private key.
2537 Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
2538 * Fix issue in Lucky 13 counter-measure that could make it ineffective when
2539 hardware accelerators were used (using one of the MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_ALT
2540 macros). This would cause the original Lucky 13 attack to be possible in
2541 those configurations, allowing an active network attacker to recover
2542 plaintext after repeated timing measurements under some conditions.
2543 Reported and fix suggested by Luc Perneel in #3246.

2545Bugfix
2546 * Fix the Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration for mbedtls itself.
2547 Completes a previous fix in Mbed TLS 2.19 that only fixed the build for
2548 the example programs. Reported in #1430 and fix contributed by irwir.
2549 * Fix undefined behavior in X.509 certificate parsing if the
2550 pathLenConstraint basic constraint value is equal to INT_MAX.
2551 The actual effect with almost every compiler is the intended
2552 behavior, so this is unlikely to be exploitable anywhere. #3192
2553 * Fix issue with a detected HW accelerated record error not being exposed
2554 due to shadowed variable. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3310.
2555 * Avoid NULL pointer dereferencing if mbedtls_ssl_free() is called with a
2556 NULL pointer argument. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3312.
2557 * Fix potential linker errors on dual world platforms by inlining
2558 mbedtls_gcc_group_to_psa(). This allows the pk.c module to link separately
2559 from psa_crypto.c. Fixes #3300.
2560 * Remove dead code in X.509 certificate parsing. Contributed by irwir in
2561 #2855.
2562 * Include asn1.h in error.c. Fixes #3328 reported by David Hu.
2563 * Fix potential memory leaks in ecp_randomize_jac() and ecp_randomize_mxz()
2564 when PRNG function fails. Contributed by Jonas Lejeune in #3318.
2565 * Remove unused macros from MSVC projects. Reported in #3297 and fix
2566 submitted in #3333 by irwir.
2567 * Add additional bounds checks in ssl_write_client_hello() preventing
2568 output buffer overflow if the configuration declared a buffer that was
2569 too small.
2570 * Set _POSIX_C_SOURCE to at least 200112L in C99 code. Reported in #3420 and
2571 fix submitted in #3421 by Nia Alarie.
2572 * Fix building library/net_sockets.c and the ssl_mail_client program on
2573 NetBSD. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3422.
2574 * Fix false positive uninitialised variable reported by cpp-check.
2575 Contributed by Sander Visser in #3311.
2576 * Update iv and len context pointers manually when reallocating buffers
2577 using the MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH feature. This caused issues
2578 when receiving a connection with CID, when these fields were shifted
2579 in ssl_parse_record_header().
2580
2581Changes
2582 * Fix warnings about signedness issues in format strings. The build is now
2583 clean of -Wformat-signedness warnings. Contributed by Kenneth Soerensen
2584 in #3153.
2585 * Fix minor performance issue in operations on Curve25519 caused by using a
2586 suboptimal modular reduction in one place. Found and fix contributed by
2587 Aurelien Jarno in #3209.
2588 * Combine identical cases in switch statements in md.c. Contributed
2589 by irwir in #3208.
2590 * Simplify a bounds check in ssl_write_certificate_request(). Contributed
2591 by irwir in #3150.
2592 * Unify the example programs termination to call mbedtls_exit() instead of
2593 using a return command. This has been done to enable customization of the
2594 behavior in bare metal environments.
2595 * Fix mbedtls_x509_dn_gets to escape non-ASCII characters as "?".
2596 Contributed by Koh M. Nakagawa in #3326.
2597 * Use FindPython3 when cmake version >= 3.15.0
2598 * Abort the ClientHello writing function as soon as some extension doesn't
2599 fit into the record buffer. Previously, such extensions were silently
2600 dropped. As a consequence, the TLS handshake now fails when the output
2601 buffer is not large enough to hold the ClientHello.
2602 * The unit tests now rely on header files in tests/include/test and source
2603 files in tests/src. When building with make or cmake, the files in
2604 tests/src are compiled and the resulting object linked into each test
2605 executable.
2606 * The ECP module, enabled by `MBEDTLS_ECP_C`, now depends on
2607 `MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_C` or `MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_C` for some side-channel
2608 coutermeasures. If side channels are not a concern, this dependency can
2609 be avoided by enabling the new option `MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG`.
2610 * Align MSVC error flag with GCC and Clang. Contributed by Carlos Gomes
2611 Martinho. #3147
2612 * Remove superfluous assignment in mbedtls_ssl_parse_certificate(). Reported
2613 in #3182 and fix submitted by irwir. #3217

2628 (RFC 6347 section 4.2.8): an attacker able to send forged UDP packets to
2629 the server could cause it to drop established associations with
2630 legitimate clients, resulting in a Denial of Service. This could only

2635 untrusted operating system attacking a secure enclave) to fully recover
2636 an ECDSA private key. Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya,

2656 is back directly in the present repository.
Andrzej Kurek90c6e842020-04-03 05:25:29 -04002657 * Split mbedtls_ssl_get_max_frag_len() into
2658 mbedtls_ssl_get_output_max_frag_len() and
2659 mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() to ensure that a sufficient input

2675 operation. The overread only happens with cryptographically low
2676 probability (of the order of 2^-n where n is the bitsize of the curve)
2677 unless the RNG is broken, and could result in information disclosure or

Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002716 * The initial seeding of a CTR_DRBG instance makes a second call to the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002717 entropy function to obtain entropy for a nonce if the entropy size is less
2718 than 3/2 times the key size. In case you want to disable the extra call to
Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002719 grab entropy, you can call mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len() to force the

Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002723 * Enforce that mbedtls_entropy_func() gathers a total of
2724 MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes or more from strong sources. In the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002725 default configuration, on a platform with a single entropy source, the
2726 entropy module formerly only grabbed 32 bytes, which is good enough for

2728 bytes (size of the entropy accumulator).
Gilles Peskinee3b285d2020-01-27 14:01:42 +01002729 * Zeroize local variables in mbedtls_internal_aes_encrypt() and
2730 mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt() before exiting the function. The value of
2731 these variables can be used to recover the last round key. To follow best
2732 practice and to limit the impact of buffer overread vulnerabilities (like
2733 Heartbleed) we need to zeroize them before exiting the function.
2734 Issue reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
2735 Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
2736 Dave Tian (Purdue University).
2737 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA. Our bignum implementation is not
2738 constant time/constant trace, so side channel attacks can retrieve the
2739 blinded value, factor it (as it is smaller than RSA keys and not guaranteed
2740 to have only large prime factors), and then, by brute force, recover the
2741 key. Reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
2742 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA key generation. Obtaining precise
2743 timings on the comparison in the key generation enabled the attacker to
2744 learn leading bits of the ephemeral key used during ECDSA signatures and to
2745 recover the private key. Reported by Jeremy Dubeuf.

Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +01002822 * Fix a missing error detection in ECJPAKE. This could have caused a
2823 predictable shared secret if a hardware accelerator failed and the other
2824 side of the key exchange had a similar bug.
Gilles Peskine52157832018-08-11 00:51:04 +02002825 * When writing a private EC key, use a constant size for the private
2826 value, as specified in RFC 5915. Previously, the value was written
2827 as an ASN.1 INTEGER, which caused the size of the key to leak
2828 about 1 bit of information on average and could cause the value to be
2829 1 byte too large for the output buffer.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +00002830 * The deterministic ECDSA calculation reused the scheme's HMAC-DRBG to
2831 implement blinding. Because of this for the same key and message the same
2832 blinding value was generated. This reduced the effectiveness of the
2833 countermeasure and leaked information about the private key through side
2834 channels. Reported by Jack Lloyd.

Jarno Lamsa9e90df52019-08-23 09:08:31 +03002841 * Add a new API function mbedtls_ssl_check_record() to allow checking that
2842 an incoming record is valid, authentic and has not been seen before. This
2843 feature can be used alongside Connection ID and SSL context serialisation.
2844 The feature is enabled at compile-time by MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_CHECKING
2845 option.
Jaeden Amero49fcbea2019-08-30 15:50:45 +01002846 * New implementation of X25519 (ECDH using Curve25519) from Project Everest
2847 (https://project-everest.github.io/). It can be enabled at compile time
2848 with MBEDTLS_ECDH_VARIANT_EVEREST_ENABLED. This implementation is formally

Jaeden Amero49fcbea2019-08-30 15:50:45 +01002862 * The functions mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() and mbedtls_ecp_grp_id_list() now
2863 list all curves for which at least one of ECDH or ECDSA is supported, not
2864 just curves for which both are supported. Call mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do() or

2866 supported.
Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +01002867 * The new function mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_ext() is similar to
2868 mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det() but allows passing an external RNG for the
2869 purpose of blinding.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +00002870

2968 The Connection ID extension allows to keep DTLS connections beyond the

3043 for the benefit of saving RAM, by disabling the new compile-time
3044 option MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE (enabled by default for

3059 * Fix a compilation issue with mbedtls_ecp_restart_ctx not being defined
3060 when MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT is defined. Reported by jwhui. Fixes #2242.
3061 * Run the AD too long test only if MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT is not defined.
3062 Raised as a comment in #1996.
3063 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() which could
3064 previously lead to a stack overflow on constrained targets.
3065 * Add `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` for the mbedtls_self_test functions
3066 in the header files, which missed the precompilation check. #971
3067 * Fix returning the value 1 when mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey failed.
3068 * Remove a duplicate #include in a sample program. Fixed by Masashi Honma #2326.
Hanno Becker1b6d2b22019-01-10 09:22:16 +00003069 * Remove the mbedtls namespacing from the header file, to fix a "file not found"
3070 build error. Fixed by Haijun Gu #2319.
Ron Eldor8a6917d2018-11-27 10:33:38 +02003071 * Fix signed-to-unsigned integer conversion warning
3072 in X.509 module. Fixes #2212.
Peter Kolbus995d5c12019-02-03 08:41:41 -06003073 * Reduce stack usage of `mpi_write_hlp()` by eliminating recursion.
3074 Fixes #2190.
Andres Amaya Garciad588ff72018-09-26 10:59:20 +01003075 * Fix false failure in all.sh when backup files exist in include/mbedtls
3076 (e.g. config.h.bak). Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin) #2407.
3077 * Ensure that unused bits are zero when writing ASN.1 bitstrings when using
3078 mbedtls_asn1_write_bitstring().
3079 * Fix issue when writing the named bitstrings in KeyUsage and NsCertType
3080 extensions in CSRs and CRTs that caused these bitstrings to not be encoded
Simon Butcher41f95192018-12-01 18:42:47 +00003081 correctly as trailing zeroes were not accounted for as unused bits in the
3082 leading content octet. Fixes #1610.

3084Changes
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05003085 * Reduce RAM consumption during session renegotiation by not storing
3086 the peer CRT chain and session ticket twice.
3087 * Include configuration file in all header files that use configuration,
3088 instead of relying on other header files that they include.
3089 Inserted as an enhancement for #1371
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05003090 * Add support for alternative CSR headers, as used by Microsoft and defined
3091 in RFC 7468. Found by Michael Ernst. Fixes #767.
3092 * Correct many misspellings. Fixed by MisterDA #2371.
3093 * Provide an abstraction of vsnprintf to allow alternative implementations
3094 for platforms that don't provide it. Based on contributions by Joris Aerts
3095 and Nathaniel Wesley Filardo.
3096 * Fix clobber list in MIPS assembly for large integer multiplication.
3097 Previously, this could lead to functionally incorrect assembly being
3098 produced by some optimizing compilers, showing up as failures in
k-stachowiakc5a4a132019-02-05 09:11:58 +01003099 e.g. RSA or ECC signature operations. Reported in #1722, fix suggested
3100 by Aurelien Jarno and submitted by Jeffrey Martin.
Andres Amaya Garciaaabe52f2018-10-16 22:18:53 +01003101 * Reduce the complexity of the timing tests. They were assuming more than the
3102 underlying OS actually guarantees.
k-stachowiakcddbd012019-02-19 12:40:34 +01003103 * Fix configuration queries in ssl-opt.h. #2030
3104 * Ensure that ssl-opt.h can be run in OS X. #2029
Andres Amaya Garciaf8dffb32019-02-19 20:14:00 +00003105 * Re-enable certain interoperability tests in ssl-opt.sh which had previously
3106 been disabled for lack of a sufficiently recent version of GnuTLS on the CI.
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05003107 * Ciphersuites based on 3DES now have the lowest priority by default when
3108 they are enabled.
3109

3111
3112Features
3113 * Add a new config.h option of MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS that enables validation
3114 of parameters in the API. This allows detection of obvious misuses of the
3115 API, such as passing NULL pointers. The API of existing functions hasn't
3116 changed, but requirements on parameters have been made more explicit in
3117 the documentation. See the corresponding API documentation for each
3118 function to see for which parameter values it is defined. This feature is
3119 disabled by default. See its API documentation in config.h for additional
3120 steps you have to take when enabling it.
3121
3122API Changes
3123 * The following functions in the random generator modules have been
3124 deprecated and replaced as shown below. The new functions change
3125 the return type from void to int to allow returning error codes when
3126 using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT for the underlying AES or message digest
3127 primitive. Fixes #1798.
3128 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret()
3129 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret()
3130 * Extend ECDH interface to enable alternative implementations.
3131 * Deprecate error codes of the form MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH for
3132 ARIA, CAMELLIA and Blowfish. These error codes will be replaced by
3133 the more generic per-module error codes MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
3134 * Additional parameter validation checks have been added for the following
3135 modules - AES, ARIA, Blowfish, CAMELLIA, CCM, GCM, DHM, ECP, ECDSA, ECDH,
3136 ECJPAKE, SHA, Chacha20 and Poly1305, cipher, pk, RSA, and MPI.
3137 Where modules have had parameter validation added, existing parameter
3138 checks may have changed. Some modules, such as Chacha20 had existing
3139 parameter validation whereas other modules had little. This has now been
3140 changed so that the same level of validation is present in all modules, and
3141 that it is now optional with the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS flag which by default
3142 is off. That means that checks which were previously present by default
3143 will no longer be.
3144
3145New deprecations
3146 * Deprecate mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update
3147 in favor of functions that can return an error code.
3148
3149Bugfix
3150 * Fix for Clang, which was reporting a warning for the bignum.c inline
3151 assembly for AMD64 targets creating string literals greater than those
3152 permitted by the ISO C99 standard. Found by Aaron Jones. Fixes #482.
3153 * Fix runtime error in `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` when run
3154 through qemu user emulation. Reported and fix suggested by randombit
3155 in #1212. Fixes #1212.
3156 * Fix an unsafe bounds check when restoring an SSL session from a ticket.
3157 This could lead to a buffer overflow, but only in case ticket authentication
3158 was broken. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #659.
3159 * Add explicit integer to enumeration type casts to example program
3160 programs/pkey/gen_key which previously led to compilation failure
3161 on some toolchains. Reported by phoenixmcallister. Fixes #2170.
3162 * Fix double initialization of ECC hardware that made some accelerators
3163 hang.
3164 * Clarify documentation of mbedtls_ssl_set_own_cert() regarding the absence
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05003165 of check for certificate/key matching. Reported by Attila Molnar, #507.

3177 * Add an experimental configuration option, MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C, to enable
3178 the PSA Crypto API from Mbed Crypto when additionally used with the
3179 USE_CRYPTO_SUBMODULE build option.

3187Security
3188 * Fix timing variations and memory access variations in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
3189 decryption that could lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle
3190 attack. In TLS, this affects servers that accept ciphersuites based on
3191 RSA decryption (i.e. ciphersuites whose name contains RSA but not
3192 (EC)DH(E)). Discovered by Eyal Ronen (Weizmann Institute), Robert Gillham
3193 (University of Adelaide), Daniel Genkin (University of Michigan),
3194 Adi Shamir (Weizmann Institute), David Wong (NCC Group), and Yuval Yarom
3195 (University of Adelaide, Data61). The attack is described in more detail
3196 in the paper available here: http://cat.eyalro.net/cat.pdf CVE-2018-19608
3197 * In mbedtls_mpi_write_binary(), don't leak the exact size of the number
3198 via branching and memory access patterns. An attacker who could submit
3199 a plaintext for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption but only observe the timing
3200 of the decryption and not its result could nonetheless decrypt RSA
3201 plaintexts and forge RSA signatures. Other asymmetric algorithms may
3202 have been similarly vulnerable. Reported by Eyal Ronen, Robert Gillham,
3203 Daniel Genkin, Adi Shamir, David Wong and Yuval Yarom.
3204 * Wipe sensitive buffers on the stack in the CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG
3205 modules.
3206
3207API Changes
3208 * The new functions mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret() and
3209 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret() are similar to mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update()
3210 and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() respectively, but the new functions
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05003211 report errors whereas the old functions return void. We recommend that
Simon Butcherc1b98922018-11-19 18:31:40 +00003212 applications use the new functions.

Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00003217 * Fix overly strict DN comparison when looking for CRLs belonging to a
3218 particular CA. This previously led to ignoring CRLs when the CRL's issuer
3219 name and the CA's subject name differed in their string encoding (e.g.,
3220 one using PrintableString and the other UTF8String) or in the choice of
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01003221 upper and lower case. Reported by Henrik Andersson of Bosch GmbH in issue
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00003222 #1784.
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01003223 * Fix a flawed bounds check in server PSK hint parsing. In case the
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00003224 incoming message buffer was placed within the first 64KiB of address
3225 space and a PSK-(EC)DHE ciphersuite was used, this allowed an attacker
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01003226 to trigger a memory access up to 64KiB beyond the incoming message buffer,
3227 potentially leading to an application crash or information disclosure.
3228 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() to use more rounds of probabilistic testing. The
3229 previous settings for the number of rounds made it practical for an
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00003230 adversary to construct non-primes that would be erroneously accepted as
3231 primes with high probability. This does not have an impact on the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01003232 security of TLS, but can matter in other contexts with numbers chosen
3233 potentially by an adversary that should be prime and can be validated.
3234 For example, the number of rounds was enough to securely generate RSA key
3235 pairs or Diffie-Hellman parameters, but was insufficient to validate
3236 Diffie-Hellman parameters properly.

Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00003240Features
3241 * Add support for temporarily suspending expensive ECC computations after
3242 some configurable amount of operations. This is intended to be used in
3243 constrained, single-threaded systems where ECC is time consuming and can
3244 block other operations until they complete. This is disabled by default,
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +02003245 but can be enabled by MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE at compile time and
3246 configured by mbedtls_ecp_set_max_ops() at runtime. It applies to the new
3247 xxx_restartable functions in ECP, ECDSA, PK and X.509 (CRL not supported
3248 yet), and to existing functions in ECDH and SSL (currently only
Simon Butcher4a865ef2018-10-28 18:00:51 +00003249 implemented client-side, for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphersuites in TLS 1.2,
3250 including client authentication).
3251 * Add support for Arm CPU DSP extensions to accelerate asymmetric key
3252 operations. On CPUs where the extensions are available, they can accelerate
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00003253 MPI multiplications used in ECC and RSA cryptography. Contributed by
3254 Aurelien Jarno.
3255 * Extend RSASSA-PSS signature to allow a smaller salt size. Previously, PSS
3256 signature always used a salt with the same length as the hash, and returned
3257 an error if this was not possible. Now the salt size may be up to two bytes
Simon Butcher06d80cf2018-11-06 23:46:04 +00003258 shorter. This allows the library to support all hash and signature sizes
3259 that comply with FIPS 186-4, including SHA-512 with a 1024-bit key.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard823c9152018-07-02 12:05:49 +02003260 * Add support for 128-bit keys in CTR_DRBG. Note that using keys shorter
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +00003261 than 256 bits limits the security of generated material to 128 bits.
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00003262
3263API Changes
3264 * Add a common error code of `MBEDTLS_ERR_PLATFORM_FEATURE_UNSUPPORTED` for
3265 a feature that is not supported by underlying alternative
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +00003266 implementations implementing cryptographic primitives. This is useful for

3269New deprecations
3270 * All module specific errors following the form
3271 MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE that indicate a feature is not
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00003272 supported are deprecated and are now replaced by the new equivalent
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00003273 platform error.
3274 * All module specific generic hardware acceleration errors following the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01003275 form MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED that are deprecated and are replaced
3276 by the equivalent plaform error.
3277 * Deprecate the function mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() in favor of
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +03003278 mbedtls_mpi_is_prime_ext() which allows specifying the number of
Simon Butcherb3633822018-07-30 22:10:48 +01003279 Miller-Rabin rounds.
Simon Butcher2b5be1e2018-10-30 15:55:10 +00003280
3281Bugfix
3282 * Fix wrong order of freeing in programs/ssl/ssl_server2 example
3283 application leading to a memory leak in case both
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +01003284 MBEDTLS_MEMORY_BUFFER_ALLOC_C and MBEDTLS_MEMORY_BACKTRACE are set.
3285 Fixes #2069.
Simon Butcher1afc7672018-09-27 11:35:19 +01003286 * Fix a bug in the update function for SSL ticket keys which previously
3287 invalidated keys of a lifetime of less than a 1s. Fixes #1968.
Hanno Beckerf24c3362018-10-17 14:53:05 +01003288 * Fix failure in hmac_drbg in the benchmark sample application, when
3289 MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is defined. Found by TrinityTonic, #1095
3290 * Fix a bug in the record decryption routine ssl_decrypt_buf()
Hanno Becker617a3212018-10-05 09:51:36 +01003291 which lead to accepting properly authenticated but improperly
3292 padded records in case of CBC ciphersuites using Encrypt-then-MAC.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00003293 * Fix memory leak and freeing without initialization in the example
3294 program programs/x509/cert_write. Fixes #1422.
Hanno Becker7e1f3be2018-10-15 13:20:28 +01003295 * Ignore IV in mbedtls_cipher_set_iv() when the cipher mode is
3296 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB. Found by ezdevelop. Fixes #1091.
3297 * Zeroize memory used for buffering or reassembling handshake messages
3298 after use.
Hanno Beckerf143a782018-11-06 17:43:16 +00003299 * Use `mbedtls_platform_zeroize()` instead of `memset()` for zeroization
3300 of sensitive data in the example programs aescrypt2 and crypt_and_hash.
3301 * Change the default string format used for various X.509 DN attributes to
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00003302 UTF8String. Previously, the use of the PrintableString format led to
3303 wildcards and non-ASCII characters being unusable in some DN attributes.
Hanno Beckere4f965d2018-10-11 10:54:45 +01003304 Reported by raprepo in #1860 and by kevinpt in #468. Fix contributed by

Gilles Peskine604ccc62018-07-10 15:55:52 +02003312 * Removed support for Yotta as a build tool.
3313 * Add tests for session resumption in DTLS.
3314 * Close a test gap in (D)TLS between the client side and the server side:
Simon Butcherddc9e262018-10-27 18:27:41 +01003315 test the handling of large packets and small packets on the client side
3316 in the same way as on the server side.
Simon Butcher404aa652018-10-01 14:44:22 +01003317 * Change the dtls_client and dtls_server samples to work by default over
3318 IPv6 and optionally by a build option over IPv4.
3319 * Change the use of Windows threading to use Microsoft Visual C++ runtime
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00003320 calls, rather than Win32 API calls directly. This is necessary to avoid
3321 conflict with C runtime usage. Found and fixed by irwir.
3322 * Remember the string format of X.509 DN attributes when replicating
3323 X.509 DNs. Previously, DN attributes were always written in their default
3324 string format (mostly PrintableString), which could lead to CRTs being
3325 created which used PrintableStrings in the issuer field even though the
3326 signing CA used UTF8Strings in its subject field; while X.509 compliant,
3327 such CRTs were rejected in some applications, e.g. some versions of
Hanno Becker0bb204c2018-10-30 10:08:33 +00003328 Firefox, curl and GnuTLS. Reported in #1033 by Moschn. Fix contributed by

Janos Follath33329372018-09-06 10:41:33 +01003330 * Improve documentation of mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result().
3331 Fixes #517 reported by github-monoculture.
3332 * Add MBEDTLS_MPI_GEN_PRIME_FLAG_LOW_ERR flag to mbedtls_mpi_gen_prime() and
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +01003333 use it to reduce error probability in RSA key generation to levels mandated

Andres Amaya Garciaa7b9f152018-08-16 21:46:35 +01003339 * Extend the platform module with an abstraction mbedtls_platform_gmtime_r()
Hanno Beckeracef2922018-09-05 16:19:07 +01003340 whose implementation should behave as a thread-safe version of gmtime().

3420 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC and using SHA-384,
3421 in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed an active network attacker to
3422 partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions by
3423 exploiting timing measurements. With DTLS, the attacker could perform
3424 this recovery by sending many messages in the same connection. With TLS
3425 or if mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only
3426 worked if the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly
3427 sent over connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM
3428 or CCM instead of CBC, using hash sizes other than SHA-384, or using
3429 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. The vulnerability was
3430 caused by a miscalculation (for SHA-384) in a countermeasure to the

3573Security
3574 * Fix an issue in the X.509 module which could lead to a buffer overread
3575 during certificate validation. Additionally, the issue could also lead to
3576 unnecessary callback checks being made or to some validation checks to be
3577 omitted. The overread could be triggered remotely, while the other issues
3578 would require a non DER-compliant certificate to be correctly signed by a
3579 trusted CA, or a trusted CA with a non DER-compliant certificate. Found by
3580 luocm. Fixes #825.
3581 * Fix the buffer length assertion in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
3582 function which led to an arbitrary overread of the message buffer. The
3583 overreads could be caused by receiving a malformed message at the point
3584 where an optional signature algorithms list is expected when the signature
Andrzej Kurekb7a18c02018-04-25 05:25:30 -04003585 algorithms section is too short. In builds with debug output, the overread
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003586 data is output with the debug data.
3587 * Fix a client-side bug in the validation of the server's ciphersuite choice
3588 which could potentially lead to the client accepting a ciphersuite it didn't
3589 offer or a ciphersuite that cannot be used with the TLS or DTLS version
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +01003590 chosen by the server. This could lead to corruption of internal data
Gilles Peskine15ad5792018-03-22 22:21:55 +01003591 structures for some configurations.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003592
3593Features
3594 * Add an option, MBEDTLS_AES_FEWER_TABLES, to dynamically compute smaller AES
Gilles Peskine15ad5792018-03-22 22:21:55 +01003595 tables during runtime, thereby reducing the RAM/ROM footprint by ~6KiB.
3596 Suggested and contributed by jkivilin in pull request #394.
3597 * Add initial support for Curve448 (RFC 7748). Only mbedtls_ecp_mul() and
Simon Butchere6a2a1a2018-05-01 13:57:53 +01003598 ECDH primitive functions (mbedtls_ecdh_gen_public(),
Hanno Becker371f31c2017-06-07 15:56:54 +01003599 mbedtls_ecdh_compute_shared()) are supported for now. Contributed by

Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003601
3602API Changes
3603 * Extend the public API with the function of mbedtls_net_poll() to allow user
3604 applications to wait for a network context to become ready before reading
3605 or writing.
3606 * Add function mbedtls_ssl_check_pending() to the public API to allow
Gilles Peskine557e77d2018-04-04 09:18:11 +02003607 a check for whether more more data is pending to be processed in the
3608 internal message buffers.
Hanno Becker371f31c2017-06-07 15:56:54 +01003609 This function is necessary to determine when it is safe to idle on the
Andres AGee7157e2016-12-07 10:25:19 +00003610 underlying transport in case event-driven IO is used.

3614 contributed by Brian J Murray and David Brown.
3615 * Add missing dependencies in test suites that led to build failures
Jaeden Amerob6049602018-03-26 18:25:58 +01003616 in configurations that omit certain hashes or public-key algorithms.
3617 Fixes #1040.

Jethro Beekmand2df9362018-02-16 13:11:04 -08003623 * Fix the Makefile build process for building shared libraries on Mac OS X.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003624 Fixed by mnacamura.
Jethro Beekmancb122372018-04-11 08:40:38 -07003625 * Fix parsing of PKCS#8 encoded Elliptic Curve keys. Previously Mbed TLS was
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003626 unable to parse keys which had only the optional parameters field of the
3627 ECPrivateKey structure. Found by Jethro Beekman, fixed in #1379.
3628 * Return the plaintext data more quickly on unpadded CBC decryption, as
Gilles Peskineb9e86962018-04-04 09:20:59 +02003629 stated in the mbedtls_cipher_update() documentation. Contributed by
3630 Andy Leiserson.
Hanno Beckerc53826b2017-10-12 07:46:41 +01003631 * Fix overriding and ignoring return values when parsing and writing to
3632 a file in pk_sign program. Found by kevlut in #1142.
3633 * Restrict usage of error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ to situations
3634 where data needs to be fetched from the underlying transport in order
3635 to make progress. Previously, this error code was also occasionally
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003636 returned when unexpected messages were being discarded, ignoring that
3637 further messages could potentially already be pending to be processed
Gilles Peskinef2b76cd2018-04-19 17:41:39 +02003638 in the internal buffers; these cases led to deadlocks when event-driven
3639 I/O was used. Found and reported by Hubert Mis in #772.
3640 * Fix buffer length assertions in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
Andrzej Kurek5462e022018-04-20 07:58:53 -04003641 function which leads to a potential one byte overread of the message
3642 buffer.
Simon Butchere6a2a1a2018-05-01 13:57:53 +01003643 * Fix invalid buffer sizes passed to zlib during record compression and
3644 decompression.
3645 * Fix the soversion of libmbedcrypto to match the soversion of the
3646 maintained 2.7 branch. The soversion was increased in Mbed TLS
Gilles Peskine08185402018-03-22 21:50:48 +01003647 version 2.7.1 to reflect breaking changes in that release, but the
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +01003648 increment was missed in 2.8.0 and later releases outside of the 2.7 branch.

Gilles Peskine51d93942018-03-23 01:42:44 +01003652 * Support cmake builds where Mbed TLS is a subproject. Fix contributed
3653 independently by Matthieu Volat and Arne Schwabe.
3654 * Improve testing in configurations that omit certain hashes or
Andres Amaya Garcia768bbaf2018-03-21 15:05:12 +00003655 public-key algorithms. Includes contributions by Gert van Dijk.
3656 * Improve negative testing of X.509 parsing.
3657 * Do not define global mutexes around readdir() and gmtime() in
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003658 configurations where the feature is disabled. Found and fixed by Gergely
3659 Budai.
3660 * Harden the function mbedtls_ssl_config_free() against misuse, so that it
3661 doesn't leak memory if the user doesn't use mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk() and
Andres Amaya Garciacb47a792018-03-27 21:19:50 +01003662 instead incorrectly manipulates the configuration structure directly.
3663 Found and fix submitted by junyeonLEE in #1220.
3664 * Provide an empty implementation of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() when
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfff308e2018-03-28 11:13:05 +02003665 MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is not enabled. This allows the use of PBKDF2
3666 without PBES2. Fixed by Marcos Del Sol Vives.
3667 * Add the order of the base point as N in the mbedtls_ecp_group structure
Jaeden Amero4ba87fc2018-03-29 11:01:38 +01003668 for Curve25519 (other curves had it already). Contributed by Nicholas
3669 Wilson #481
Darryl Greeneea1c4e2018-03-29 16:05:44 +01003670 * Improve the documentation of mbedtls_net_accept(). Contributed by Ivan
3671 Krylov.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003672 * Improve the documentation of mbedtls_ssl_write(). Suggested by
Andres Amaya Garciad1b17882018-03-27 19:14:24 +01003673 Paul Sokolovsky in #1356.
3674 * Add an option in the Makefile to support ar utilities where the operation
Andres Amaya Garciaea5a8a42018-03-25 23:57:09 +01003675 letter must not be prefixed by '-', such as LLVM. Found and fixed by

Gilles Peskine4e4be7c2018-03-21 16:29:03 +01003677 * Allow configuring the shared library extension by setting the DLEXT
Gilles Peskine092bf3d2018-04-01 12:43:48 +02003678 environment variable when using the project makefiles.
Gilles Peskinea09453f2018-04-04 09:14:12 +02003679 * Optimize unnecessary zeroing in mbedtls_mpi_copy. Based on a contribution
3680 by Alexey Skalozub in #405.
3681 * In the SSL module, when f_send, f_recv or f_recv_timeout report
Gilles Peskinec96ccf42018-03-31 22:57:03 +02003682 transmitting more than the required length, return an error. Raised by
3683 Sam O'Connor in #1245.
3684 * Improve robustness of mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys against the use of
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003685 HMAC functions with non-HMAC ciphersuites. Independently contributed
3686 by Jiayuan Chen in #1377. Fixes #1437.
Gilles Peskine81021ca2018-04-19 20:59:06 +02003687 * Improve security of RSA key generation by including criteria from
3688 FIPS 186-4. Contributed by Jethro Beekman. #1380
3689 * Declare functions in header files even when an alternative implementation
3690 of the corresponding module is activated by defining the corresponding
3691 MBEDTLS_XXX_ALT macro. This means that alternative implementations do
Andrzej Kurekaca09c72018-04-13 05:18:08 -04003692 not need to copy the declarations, and ensures that they will have the
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +01003693 same API.
Jaeden Amero8be0e6d2018-03-16 16:25:12 +00003694 * Add platform setup and teardown calls in test suites.

Thomas Daubneyd596e992021-06-18 11:50:56 +01003698Default behavior changes
3699 * The truncated HMAC extension now conforms to RFC 6066. This means
3700 that when both sides of a TLS connection negotiate the truncated
3701 HMAC extension, Mbed TLS can now interoperate with other
3702 compliant implementations, but this breaks interoperability with
3703 prior versions of Mbed TLS. To restore the old behavior, enable
3704 the (deprecated) option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT in
3705 config.h. Found by Andreas Walz (ivESK, Offenburg University of
3706 Applied Sciences).

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003780 * Fix a heap corruption issue in the implementation of the truncated HMAC
3781 extension. When the truncated HMAC extension is enabled and CBC is used,
3782 sending a malicious application packet could be used to selectively corrupt
3783 6 bytes on the peer's heap, which could potentially lead to crash or remote
3784 code execution. The issue could be triggered remotely from either side in
3785 both TLS and DTLS. CVE-2018-0488
3786 * Fix a buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the hash was too large

3788 execution. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm Product Security Initiative,
3789 Qualcomm Technologies Inc. CVE-2018-0487
3790 * Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the unmasked data is all
3791 zeros.
3792 * Fix an unsafe bounds check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity() when adding
3793 64 KiB to the address of the SSL buffer and causing a wrap around.
3794 * Fix a potential heap buffer overflow in mbedtls_ssl_write(). When the (by
Hanno Becker930025d2017-09-18 16:07:19 +01003795 default enabled) maximum fragment length extension is disabled in the
3796 config and the application data buffer passed to mbedtls_ssl_write
3797 is larger than the internal message buffer (16384 bytes by default), the
3798 latter overflows. The exploitability of this issue depends on whether the
3799 application layer can be forced into sending such large packets. The issue
3800 was independently reported by Tim Nordell via e-mail and by Florin Petriuc
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003801 and sjorsdewit on GitHub. Fix proposed by Florin Petriuc in #1022.

3813 sake of saving memory, but potentially leading to slight timing
3814 differences. Reported by Marco Macchetti, Kudelski Group.
Hanno Becker509fef72017-10-19 10:10:18 +01003815 * Wipe stack buffer temporarily holding EC private exponent
3816 after keypair generation.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003817 * Fix a potential heap buffer over-read in ALPN extension parsing
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard239987f2018-01-09 10:43:43 +01003818 (server-side). Could result in application crash, but only if an ALPN
3819 name larger than 16 bytes had been configured on the server.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01003820 * Change default choice of DHE parameters from untrustworthy RFC 5114
3821 to RFC 3526 containing parameters generated in a nothing-up-my-sleeve
3822 manner.

3827 line arguments.
Gilles Peskine8873bcc2017-10-27 18:42:32 +02003828 * New unit tests for timing. Improve the self-test to be more robust
3829 when run on a heavily-loaded machine.
Gilles Peskine618d0912018-01-02 16:04:19 +01003830 * Add alternative implementation support for CCM and CMAC (MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT,
Jaeden Amero91d49e82018-01-11 16:35:44 +00003831 MBEDTLS_CMAC_ALT). Submitted by Steven Cooreman, Silicon Labs.

Ron Eldor314adb62017-10-10 18:28:25 +03003834 * Add support for alternative implementations for ECDSA, controlled by new
3835 configuration flags MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT, MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT and
3836 MBEDTLS_ECDSDA_GENKEY_AT in config.h.
Ron Eldor2981a0a2017-09-24 15:41:09 +03003837 The following functions from the ECDSA module can be replaced
Ron Eldor314adb62017-10-10 18:28:25 +03003838 with alternative implementation:
Ron Eldor2981a0a2017-09-24 15:41:09 +03003839 mbedtls_ecdsa_sign(), mbedtls_ecdsa_verify() and mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey().
Hanno Becker087d5ad2018-01-24 16:06:25 +00003840 * Add support for alternative implementation of ECDH, controlled by the
3841 new configuration flags MBEDTLS_ECDH_COMPUTE_SHARED_ALT and
Ron Eldora84c1cb2017-10-10 19:04:27 +03003842 MBEDTLS_ECDH_GEN_PUBLIC_ALT in config.h.

3844 with an alternative implementation:
3845 mbedtls_ecdh_gen_public() and mbedtls_ecdh_compute_shared().
Hanno Becker087d5ad2018-01-24 16:06:25 +00003846 * Add support for alternative implementation of ECJPAKE, controlled by
3847 the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_ALT.

Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +00003850API Changes
3851 * Extend RSA interface by multiple functions allowing structure-
3852 independent setup and export of RSA contexts. Most notably,
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003853 mbedtls_rsa_import() and mbedtls_rsa_complete() are introduced for setting
Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +00003854 up RSA contexts from partial key material and having them completed to the
3855 needs of the implementation automatically. This allows to setup private RSA
3856 contexts from keys consisting of N,D,E only, even if P,Q are needed for the
3857 purpose or CRT and/or blinding.
3858 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_RSA_ALT can be used to define alternative
3859 implementations of the RSA interface declared in rsa.h.
Gilles Peskine0a969102018-01-22 14:55:20 +01003860 * The following functions in the message digest modules (MD2, MD4, MD5,
3861 SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) have been deprecated and replaced as shown below.
3862 The new functions change the return type from void to int to allow
3863 returning error codes when using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT.
3864 mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts_ret()
3865 mbedtls_<MODULE>_update() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_update_ret()
3866 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish_ret()
Andres Amaya Garciaf01a6442017-07-03 16:00:59 +01003867 mbedtls_<MODULE>_process() -> mbedtls_internal_<MODULE>_process()
Gilles Peskineb04e2c32017-09-29 15:45:12 +02003868
Ron Eldor73a38172017-10-03 15:58:26 +03003869New deprecations
3870 * Deprecate usage of RSA primitives with non-matching key-type
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003871 (e.g. signing with a public key).
Andres Amaya Garciaf569f702017-06-28 09:25:10 +01003872 * Direct manipulation of structure fields of RSA contexts is deprecated.
3873 Users are advised to use the extended RSA API instead.
Jaeden Amero005239e2018-01-25 14:47:39 +00003874 * Deprecate usage of message digest functions that return void
3875 (mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts, mbedtls_<MODULE>_update,
3876 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish and mbedtls_<MODULE>_process where <MODULE> is
3877 any of MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) in favor of functions
3878 that can return an error code.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01003879 * Deprecate untrustworthy DHE parameters from RFC 5114. Superseded by
3880 parameters from RFC 3526 or the newly added parameters from RFC 7919.
3881 * Deprecate hex string DHE constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P etc.
3882 Supserseded by binary encoded constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P_BIN
3883 etc.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003884 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param() for setting default DHE parameters
3885 from hex strings. Superseded by mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param_bin()
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01003886 accepting DHM parameters in binary form, matching the new constants.

3909 If a call to one of the functions of the cryptographic primitive modules
3910 failed, the error may not be noticed by the function
3911 mbedtls_pem_read_buffer() causing it to return invalid values. Found by
3912 Guido Vranken. #756
Gilles Peskine4b117d92017-11-28 17:23:37 +01003913 * Include configuration file in md.h, to fix compilation warnings.
3914 Reported by aaronmdjones in #1001
Hanno Becker041a6b02017-09-28 14:52:26 +01003915 * Correct extraction of signature-type from PK instance in X.509 CRT and CSR
3916 writing routines that prevented these functions to work with alternative
3917 RSA implementations. Raised by J.B. in the Mbed TLS forum. Fixes #1011.
Hanno Becker86e52302017-10-05 09:08:53 +01003918 * Don't print X.509 version tag for v1 CRT's, and omit extensions for

Janos Follathb85291c2017-06-22 10:02:07 +01004044 * Added config.h option MBEDTLS_NO_UDBL_DIVISION, to prevent the use of
Simon Butcher3f2557e2017-08-01 18:06:12 +01004045 64-bit division. This is useful on embedded platforms where 64-bit division
4046 created a dependency on external libraries. #708
Janos Follath78b14732017-06-22 10:02:07 +01004047 * Removed mutexes from ECP hardware accelerator code. Now all hardware
4048 accelerator code in the library leaves concurrency handling to the
4049 platform. Reported by Steven Cooreman. #863
Andres Amaya Garciad0e15d72017-06-26 12:57:44 +01004050 * Define the macro MBEDTLS_AES_ROM_TABLES in the configuration file
4051 config-no-entropy.h to reduce the RAM footprint.
Simon Butcher3f2557e2017-08-01 18:06:12 +01004052 * Added a test script that can be hooked into git that verifies commits

Hanno Beckerbf4c2e32017-06-09 11:28:45 +01004059 * Fixed unlimited overread of heap-based buffer in mbedtls_ssl_read().
4060 The issue could only happen client-side with renegotiation enabled.
4061 Could result in DoS (application crash) or information leak
4062 (if the application layer sent data read from mbedtls_ssl_read()
4063 back to the server or to a third party). Can be triggered remotely.
Gilles Peskine5d2511c2017-05-12 13:16:40 +02004064 * Removed SHA-1 and RIPEMD-160 from the default hash algorithms for
4065 certificate verification. SHA-1 can be turned back on with a compile-time
4066 option if needed.
Gilles Peskined50177f2017-05-16 17:53:03 +02004067 * Fixed offset in FALLBACK_SCSV parsing that caused TLS server to fail to

Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01004073 * Remove size zero arrays from ECJPAKE test suite. Size zero arrays are not
4074 valid C and they prevented the test from compiling in Visual Studio 2015
4075 and with GCC using the -Wpedantic compilation option.
Hanno Becker7e5437a2017-04-28 17:15:26 +01004076 * Fix insufficient support for signature-hash-algorithm extension,

4079 when sending the alert failed. The fix makes sure not to hide the error
Gilles Peskine3df98f52017-05-10 17:47:40 +02004080 that triggered the alert.
Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01004081 * Fix SSLv3 renegotiation behaviour and stop processing data received from
4082 peer after sending a fatal alert to refuse a renegotiation attempt.
4083 Previous behaviour was to keep processing data even after the alert has
4084 been sent.
Hanno Becker39ae8cd2017-05-08 16:31:14 +01004085 * Accept empty trusted CA chain in authentication mode

Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01004118 * Add hardware acceleration support for the Elliptic Curve Point module.
4119 This involved exposing parts of the internal interface to enable
4120 replacing the core functions and adding and alternative, module level
4121 replacement support for enabling the extension of the interface.
Janos Follath7a8a0902017-04-10 16:13:06 +01004122 * Add a new configuration option to 'mbedtls_ssl_config' to enable
4123 suppressing the CA list in Certificate Request messages. The default
4124 behaviour has not changed, namely every configured CAs name is included.
4125
Andres AGf5bf7182017-03-03 14:09:56 +00004126API Changes

4294 naming collision in projects which also have files with the common name
4295 net.c. For consistency, the corresponding header file, net.h, is marked as

4562 You now need to link to all of them if you use TLS for example.
4563 * All public identifiers moved to the mbedtls_* or MBEDTLS_* namespace.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02004564 Some names have been further changed to make them more consistent.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02004572 * The following _init() functions that could return errors have
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc34e8dd2015-04-28 21:42:17 +02004573 been split into an _init() that returns void and another function that
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02004574 should generally be the first function called on this context after init:
4575 mbedtls_ssl_init() -> mbedtls_ssl_setup()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02004576 mbedtls_ccm_init() -> mbedtls_ccm_setkey()

Tillmann Karras588ad502015-09-25 04:27:22 +02004580 Note that for mbedtls_ssl_setup(), you need to be done setting up the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02004581 ssl_config structure before calling it.
4582 * Most ssl_set_xxx() functions (all except ssl_set_bio(), ssl_set_hostname(),
4583 ssl_set_session() and ssl_set_client_transport_id(), plus
4584 ssl_legacy_renegotiation()) have been renamed to mbedtls_ssl_conf_xxx()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9a1a4d62015-05-11 10:35:53 +02004585 (see rename.pl and compat-1.3.h above) and their first argument's type
4586 changed from ssl_context to ssl_config.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004587 * ssl_set_bio() changed signature (contexts merged, order switched, one

4592 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ca_chain()
4593 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02004594 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_ca_chain() lost its last argument (peer_cn), now set
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc2b7712015-05-06 11:14:19 +01004595 using mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004596 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_cache() changed prototype (only one context
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5cb33082015-05-06 18:06:26 +01004597 pointer, parameters reordered).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard866eb472015-05-25 19:41:37 +02004598 * On server, mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets_cb() must now be used in
4599 place of mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets() to enable session tickets.

4601 * Debug modes were removed.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004602 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_truncated_hmac() now returns void.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004603 * mbedtls_memory_buffer_alloc_init() now returns void.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02004604 * X.509 verification flags are now an uint32_t. Affect the signature of:
4605 mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result()
4606 mbedtls_x509_ctr_verify_info()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004607 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (flags, f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02004608 mbedtls_ssl_conf_verify() (f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc6ff232015-06-02 16:33:08 +01004609 * The following functions changed prototype to avoid an in-out length
4610 parameter:

4612 mbedtls_base64_decode()
4613 mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
4614 mbedtls_dhm_calc_secret()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard91895852015-06-30 13:34:45 +02004615 * In the NET module, all "int" and "int *" arguments for file descriptors
4616 changed type to "mbedtls_net_context *".
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0b104b02015-05-14 21:52:40 +02004617 * net_accept() gained new arguments for the size of the client_ip buffer.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard8f5fd312015-04-24 14:42:34 +02004618 * In the threading layer, mbedtls_mutex_init() and mbedtls_mutex_free() now
4619 return void.
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01004620 * ecdsa_write_signature() gained an additional md_alg argument and
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarddfdcac92015-03-31 11:41:42 +02004621 ecdsa_write_signature_det() was deprecated.

4624 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_key_usage() changed from int to unsigned.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda958d692015-03-27 10:23:53 +01004625 * test_ca_list (from certs.h) is renamed to test_cas_pem and is only
4626 available if POLARSSL_PEM_PARSE_C is defined (it never worked without).
4627 * Test certificates in certs.c are no longer guaranteed to be nul-terminated
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard75f90102015-03-27 09:56:18 +01004628 strings; use the new *_len variables instead of strlen().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard43b37cb2015-05-12 11:20:10 +02004629 * Functions mbedtls_x509_xxx_parse(), mbedtls_pk_parse_key(),
4630 mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() and mbedtls_dhm_parse_dhm() now expect the
4631 length parameter to include the terminating null byte for PEM input.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard35f1d7f2015-03-19 12:42:40 +00004632 * Signature of mpi_mul_mpi() changed to make the last argument unsigned
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5b9e5b12015-05-26 17:46:09 +02004633 * calloc() is now used instead of malloc() everywhere. API of platform
4634 layer and the memory_buffer_alloc module changed accordingly.

4650 (use generic functions from md.h)
4651 * Removed mbedtls_timing_msleep(). Use mbedtls_net_usleep() or a custom
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda63bc942015-05-14 18:22:47 +02004652 waiting function.

4658 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_LONGLONG was removed (now always on).
4659 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_INT8 and POLARSSL_HAVE_INT16 have
4660 been removed (compiler is required to support 32-bit operations).
4661 * Configuration option POLARSSL_HAVE_IPV6 was removed (always enabled).
4662 * Removed test program o_p_test, the script compat.sh does more.
4663 * Removed test program ssl_test, superseded by ssl-opt.sh.

6138XySSL ChangeLog
6139
6140= Version 0.9 released on 2008-03-16
6141
6142 * Added support for ciphersuite: SSL_RSA_AES_128_SHA
6143 * Enabled support for large files by default in aescrypt2.c
6144 * Preliminary openssl wrapper contributed by David Barrett
6145 * Fixed a bug in ssl_write() that caused the same payload to
6146 be sent twice in non-blocking mode when send returns EAGAIN
6147 * Fixed ssl_parse_client_hello(): session id and challenge must
6148 not be swapped in the SSLv2 ClientHello (found by Greg Robson)
6149 * Added user-defined callback debug function (Krystian Kolodziej)
6150 * Before freeing a certificate, properly zero out all cert. data
6151 * Fixed the "mode" parameter so that encryption/decryption are
6152 not swapped on PadLock; also fixed compilation on older versions
6153 of gcc (bug reported by David Barrett)
6154 * Correctly handle the case in padlock_xcryptcbc() when input or
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01006155 output data is non-aligned by falling back to the software
Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +00006156 implementation, as VIA Nehemiah cannot handle non-aligned buffers
6157 * Fixed a memory leak in x509parse_crt() which was reported by Greg
6158 Robson-Garth; some x509write.c fixes by Pascal Vizeli, thanks to
6159 Matthew Page who reported several bugs
6160 * Fixed x509_get_ext() to accept some rare certificates which have
6161 an INTEGER instead of a BOOLEAN for BasicConstraints::cA.
6162 * Added support on the client side for the TLS "hostname" extension
6163 (patch contributed by David Patino)
6164 * Make x509parse_verify() return BADCERT_CN_MISMATCH when an empty
6165 string is passed as the CN (bug reported by spoofy)
6166 * Added an option to enable/disable the BN assembly code
6167 * Updated rsa_check_privkey() to verify that (D*E) = 1 % (P-1)*(Q-1)

6169 selftest and benchmark to not test ciphers that have been disabled
6170 * Updated x509parse_cert_info() to correctly display byte 0 of the
6171 serial number, setup correct server port in the ssl client example
6172 * Fixed a critical denial-of-service with X.509 cert. verification:
6173 peer may cause xyssl to loop indefinitely by sending a certificate
6174 for which the RSA signature check fails (bug reported by Benoit)
6175 * Added test vectors for: AES-CBC, AES-CFB, DES-CBC and 3DES-CBC,
6176 HMAC-MD5, HMAC-SHA1, HMAC-SHA-256, HMAC-SHA-384, and HMAC-SHA-512
6177 * Fixed HMAC-SHA-384 and HMAC-SHA-512 (thanks to Josh Sinykin)
6178 * Modified ssl_parse_client_key_exchange() to protect against
6179 Daniel Bleichenbacher attack on PKCS#1 v1.5 padding, as well
6180 as the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa extension of Bleichenbacher's attack
6181 * Updated rsa_gen_key() so that ctx->N is always nbits in size
6182 * Fixed assembly PPC compilation errors on Mac OS X, thanks to
6183 David Barrett and Dusan Semen
