10
11Features
12 * Add nss_keylog to ssl_client2 and ssl_server2, enabling easier analysis of
13 TLS sessions with tools like Wireshark.
14
15API Changes
16 * Make client_random and server_random const in
17 mbedtls_ssl_export_keys_ext_t, so that the key exporter is discouraged
18 from modifying the client/server hello.

Gilles Peskine52157832018-08-11 00:51:04 +020022Security
Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +010023 * Fix a missing error detection in ECJPAKE. This could have caused a
24 predictable shared secret if a hardware accelerator failed and the other
25 side of the key exchange had a similar bug.
Gilles Peskine52157832018-08-11 00:51:04 +020026 * When writing a private EC key, use a constant size for the private
27 value, as specified in RFC 5915. Previously, the value was written
28 as an ASN.1 INTEGER, which caused the size of the key to leak
29 about 1 bit of information on average and could cause the value to be
30 1 byte too large for the output buffer.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +000031 * The deterministic ECDSA calculation reused the scheme's HMAC-DRBG to
32 implement blinding. Because of this for the same key and message the same
33 blinding value was generated. This reduced the effectiveness of the
34 countermeasure and leaked information about the private key through side
35 channels. Reported by Jack Lloyd.

Jaeden Ameroc73fde72019-03-27 14:50:21 +000037Features
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard64722632019-05-24 10:23:55 +020038 * Add new API functions mbedtls_ssl_session_save() and
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard686adb42019-06-03 09:55:16 +020039 mbedtls_ssl_session_load() to allow serializing a session, for example to
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard64722632019-05-24 10:23:55 +020040 store it in non-volatile storage, and later using it for TLS session
41 resumption.
Jarno Lamsa9e90df52019-08-23 09:08:31 +030042 * Add a new API function mbedtls_ssl_check_record() to allow checking that
43 an incoming record is valid, authentic and has not been seen before. This
44 feature can be used alongside Connection ID and SSL context serialisation.
45 The feature is enabled at compile-time by MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_CHECKING
46 option.
Jaeden Amero49fcbea2019-08-30 15:50:45 +010047 * New implementation of X25519 (ECDH using Curve25519) from Project Everest
48 (https://project-everest.github.io/). It can be enabled at compile time
49 with MBEDTLS_ECDH_VARIANT_EVEREST_ENABLED. This implementation is formally
50 verified and significantly faster, but is only supported on x86 platforms
51 (32-bit and 64-bit) using GCC, Clang or Visual Studio. Contributed by
52 Christoph Wintersteiger from Microsoft Research.
Jaeden Amero8dd6bc72019-09-03 16:41:51 +010053 * Add mbedtls_net_close(), enabling the building of forking servers where
54 the parent process closes the client socket and continue accepting, and
55 the child process closes the listening socket and handles the client
56 socket. Contributed by Robert Larsen in #2803.
Jaeden Ameroc73fde72019-03-27 14:50:21 +000057
Gilles Peskine60b29d62019-08-14 18:37:59 +020058API Changes
Gilles Peskine60b29d62019-08-14 18:37:59 +020059 * Add DER-encoded test CRTs to library/certs.c, allowing
60 the example programs ssl_server2 and ssl_client2 to be run
61 if MBEDTLS_FS_IO and MBEDTLS_PEM_PARSE_C are unset. Fixes #2254.
62 * The HAVEGE state type now uses uint32_t elements instead of int.
Jaeden Amero49fcbea2019-08-30 15:50:45 +010063 * The functions mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() and mbedtls_ecp_grp_id_list() now
64 list all curves for which at least one of ECDH or ECDSA is supported, not
65 just curves for which both are supported. Call mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do() or
66 mbedtls_ecdh_can_do() on each result to check whether each algorithm is
67 supported.
Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +010068 * The new function mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_ext() is similar to
69 mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det() but allows passing an external RNG for the
70 purpose of blinding.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +000071
72New deprecations
73 * Deprecate mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det() in favor of a functions that can take an
74 RNG function as an input.
75 * Calling mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature() with NULL as the f_rng argument
76 is now deprecated.

Jaeden Amerod5d01a02019-03-26 14:50:06 +000078Bugfix
Hanno Becker3c03a882019-06-04 10:27:43 +010079 * Fix missing bounds checks in X.509 parsing functions that could
80 lead to successful parsing of ill-formed X.509 CRTs. Fixes #2437.
81 * Fix multiple X.509 functions previously returning ASN.1 low-level error
82 codes to always wrap these codes into X.509 high level error codes before
83 returning. Fixes #2431.
Simon Butcherf35bb5a2019-04-18 15:57:30 +010084 * Fix to allow building test suites with any warning that detects unused
85 functions. Fixes #1628.
Jaeden Ameroa152e422019-05-29 09:38:29 +010086 * Fix typo in net_would_block(). Fixes #528 reported by github-monoculture.

Jaeden Amero32eb58f2019-05-30 13:18:24 +010088 * Fix build failure when building with mingw on Windows by including
89 stdarg.h where needed. Fixes #2656.
Jaeden Amero4f4af6e2019-06-03 08:13:10 +010090 * Fix Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration by inheriting
91 PlatformToolset from the project configuration. Fixes #1430 reported by
92 irwir.
Jaeden Amerod4311042019-06-03 08:27:16 +010093 * Enable Suite B with subset of ECP curves. Make sure the code compiles even
94 if some curves are not defined. Fixes #1591 reported by dbedev.
Gilles Peskinef3820e32019-06-07 16:42:35 +020095 * Fix misuse of signed arithmetic in the HAVEGE module. #2598
Hanno Becker73540c02019-05-04 08:18:09 +010096 * Avoid use of statically sized stack buffers for certificate writing.
97 This previously limited the maximum size of DER encoded certificates
98 in mbedtls_x509write_crt_der() to 2Kb. Reported by soccerGB in #2631.
Sébastien Duquette661d7252019-06-23 17:45:26 -040099 * Fix partial zeroing in x509_get_other_name. Found and fixed by ekse, #2716.
Gilles Peskine55603ee2019-08-03 14:08:46 +0200100 * Update test certificates that were about to expire. Reported by
101 Bernhard M. Wiedemann in #2357.
Gilles Peskinea5cb7d42019-08-05 11:34:11 +0200102 * Fix the build on ARMv5TE in ARM mode to not use assembly instructions
103 that are only available in Thumb mode. Fix contributed by Aurelien Jarno
104 in #2169.
Hanno Beckerbf84d502019-07-19 12:52:08 +0100105 * Fix propagation of restart contexts in restartable EC operations.
106 This could previously lead to segmentation faults in builds using an
107 address-sanitizer and enabling but not using MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE.
Jaeden Ameroa66fc942019-09-03 13:45:34 +0100108 * Fix memory leak in in mpi_miller_rabin(). Contributed by
109 Jens Wiklander <jens.wiklander@linaro.org> in #2363
Andy Gross1f627142019-01-30 10:25:53 -0600110 * Improve code clarity in x509_crt module, removing false-positive
111 uninitialized variable warnings on some recent toolchains (GCC8, etc).
112 Discovered and fixed by Andy Gross (Linaro), #2392.
Jaeden Ameroaeb5a4a2019-09-05 14:43:14 +0100113 * Fix bug in endianness conversion in bignum module. This lead to
114 functionally incorrect code on bigendian systems which don't have
115 __BYTE_ORDER__ defined. Reported by Brendan Shanks. Fixes #2622.
Jaeden Amero4e0db562019-08-27 11:18:28 +0100116
Jaeden Amerod5d01a02019-03-26 14:50:06 +0000117Changes
Hanno Becker136512b2019-05-30 11:16:02 +0100118 * Replace multiple uses of MD2 by SHA-256 in X.509 test suite. Fixes #821.
Gilles Peskinec7ad1222019-06-13 16:44:19 +0200119 * Make it easier to define MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED as assert (which config.h
120 suggests). #2671
Jaeden Amerobefe1e152019-06-03 09:14:14 +0100121 * Make `make clean` clean all programs always. Fixes #1862.
Peter Kolbuse4e2d3a2018-12-24 09:04:54 -0600122 * Add a Dockerfile and helper scripts (all-in-docker.sh, basic-in-docker.sh,
123 docker-env.sh) to simplify running test suites on a Linux host. Contributed
124 by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
Jaeden Amerof473fa82019-07-09 13:41:54 +0100125 * Add `reproducible` option to `ssl_client2` and `ssl_server2` to enable
126 test runs without variability. Contributed by Philippe Antoine (Catena
127 cyber) in #2681.
128 * Extended .gitignore to ignore Visual Studio artifacts. Fixed by ConfusedSushi.
Philippe Antoine801194b2019-06-04 14:17:41 +0200129 * Adds fuzz targets, especially for continuous fuzzing with OSS-Fuzz.
130 Contributed by Philippe Antoine (Catena cyber).

133
Jaeden Ameroded319d2019-05-30 13:18:24 +0100134Bugfix
135 * Fix build failure when building with mingw on Windows by including
136 stdarg.h where needed. Fixes #2656.
137
Jaeden Amero3aeb13e2019-06-18 17:27:20 +0100138Changes
139 * Enable building of Mbed TLS as a CMake subproject. Suggested and fixed by
140 Ashley Duncan in #2609.
141

Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +0000144Features
145 * Add the Any Policy certificate policy oid, as defined in
146 rfc 5280 section 4.2.1.4.
147 * It is now possible to use NIST key wrap mode via the mbedtls_cipher API.
148 Contributed by Jack Lloyd and Fortanix Inc.
Andres Amaya Garciace049512019-02-20 10:00:03 +0000149 * Add the Wi-SUN Field Area Network (FAN) device extended key usage.
150 * Add the oid certificate policy x509 extension.
Andres Amaya Garcia4a512282018-10-30 18:21:41 +0000151 * It is now possible to perform RSA PKCS v1.5 signatures with RIPEMD-160 digest.
Andres Amaya Garcia22a89052018-11-26 20:57:49 +0000152 Contributed by Jack Lloyd and Fortanix Inc.
153 * Extend the MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS to export the handshake randbytes,
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +0000154 and the used tls-prf.
155 * Add public API for tls-prf function, according to requested enum.
156 * Add support for parsing otherName entries in the Subject Alternative Name
157 X.509 certificate extension, specifically type hardware module name,
Hanno Beckere31505d2019-02-07 13:42:45 +0000158 as defined in RFC 4108 section 5.
159 * Add support for parsing certificate policies extension, as defined in
160 RFC 5280 section 4.2.1.4. Currently, only the "Any Policy" policy is
161 supported.
162 * List all SAN types in the subject_alt_names field of the certificate.
163 Resolves #459.
164 * Add support for draft-05 of the Connection ID extension, as specified
Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +0000165 in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-05.
166 The Connection ID extension allows to keep DTLS connections beyond the
Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +0000167 lifetime of the underlying transport by adding a connection identifier
168 to the DTLS record header. This identifier can be used to associated an
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500169 incoming record with the correct connection data even after the peer has
170 changed its IP or port. The feature is enabled at compile-time by setting
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +0000171 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (disabled by default), and at run-time
172 through the new APIs mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid() and mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().

Jaeden Amero4e0db562019-08-27 11:18:28 +0100175API Changes
176 * Extend the MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS to export the handshake randbytes,
177 and the used tls-prf.
178 * Add public API for tls-prf function, according to requested enum.
179
Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +0000180Bugfix
181 * Fix private key DER output in the key_app_writer example. File contents
182 were shifted by one byte, creating an invalid ASN.1 tag. Fixed by
183 Christian Walther in #2239.
184 * Fix potential memory leak in X.509 self test. Found and fixed by
185 Junhwan Park, #2106.
186 * Reduce stack usage of hkdf tests. Fixes #2195.
187 * Fix 1-byte buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_write_string() when
188 used with negative inputs. Found by Guido Vranken in #2404. Credit to
189 OSS-Fuzz.
190 * Fix bugs in the AEAD test suite which would be exposed by ciphers which
191 either used both encrypt and decrypt key schedules, or which perform padding.
192 GCM and CCM were not affected. Fixed by Jack Lloyd.
193 * Fix incorrect default port number in ssl_mail_client example's usage.
194 Found and fixed by irwir. #2337
195 * Add psa_util.h to test/cpp_dummy_build to fix build_default_make_gcc_and_cxx.
196 Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin). #2579
197 * Add missing parentheses around parameters in the definition of the
Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +0000198 public macro MBEDTLS_X509_ID_FLAG. This could lead to invalid evaluation
199 in case operators binding less strongly than subtraction were used
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500200 for the parameter.
201 * Add a check for MBEDTLS_X509_CRL_PARSE_C in ssl_server2, guarding the crl
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +0000202 sni entry parameter. Reported by inestlerode in #560.
203 * Set the next sequence of the subject_alt_name to NULL when deleting
204 sequence on failure. Found and fix suggested by Philippe Antoine.
205 Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
206
Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +0000207Changes
208 * Server's RSA certificate in certs.c was SHA-1 signed. In the default
209 mbedTLS configuration only SHA-2 signed certificates are accepted.
210 This certificate is used in the demo server programs, which lead the
211 client programs to fail at the peer's certificate verification
212 due to an unacceptable hash signature. The certificate has been
213 updated to one that is SHA-256 signed. Fix contributed by
214 Illya Gerasymchuk.
215 * Return from various debugging routines immediately if the
216 provided SSL context is unset.
217 * Remove dead code from bignum.c in the default configuration.
218 Found by Coverity, reported and fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin). Fixes #2309.
219 * Add test for minimal value of MBEDTLS_MPI_WINDOW_SIZE to all.sh.
220 Contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
221 * Change wording in the `mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_frag_len()`'s documentation to
222 improve clarity. Fixes #2258.

Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +0000225
226Features
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500227 * Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`
228 which allows copy-less parsing of DER encoded X.509 CRTs,
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +0000229 at the cost of additional lifetime constraints on the input
230 buffer, but at the benefit of reduced RAM consumption.
231 * Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() to write ASN.1
232 named bitstring in DER as required by RFC 5280 Appendix B.
233 * Add MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES to allow removing 3DES ciphersuites
234 from the default list (enabled by default). See
235 https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf.
236
237API Changes
238 * Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`.
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500239 See the Features section for more information.
240 * Allow to opt in to the removal the API mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
241 for the benefit of saving RAM, by disabling the new compile-time
242 option MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE (enabled by default for
243 API stability). Disabling this option makes mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
244 always return NULL, and removes the peer_cert field from the
245 mbedtls_ssl_session structure which otherwise stores the peer's
Gilles Peskineccf8ba02018-11-07 22:39:16 +0100246 certificate.
247
248Security
249 * Make mbedtls_ecdh_get_params return an error if the second key
250 belongs to a different group from the first. Before, if an application
251 passed keys that belonged to different group, the first key's data was
252 interpreted according to the second group, which could lead to either
253 an error or a meaningless output from mbedtls_ecdh_get_params. In the
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500254 latter case, this could expose at most 5 bits of the private key.
255
256Bugfix
257 * Fix a compilation issue with mbedtls_ecp_restart_ctx not being defined
258 when MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT is defined. Reported by jwhui. Fixes #2242.
259 * Run the AD too long test only if MBEDTLS_CCM_ALT is not defined.
260 Raised as a comment in #1996.
261 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() which could
262 previously lead to a stack overflow on constrained targets.
263 * Add `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` for the mbedtls_self_test functions
264 in the header files, which missed the precompilation check. #971
265 * Fix returning the value 1 when mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey failed.
266 * Remove a duplicate #include in a sample program. Fixed by Masashi Honma #2326.
Hanno Becker1b6d2b22019-01-10 09:22:16 +0000267 * Remove the mbedtls namespacing from the header file, to fix a "file not found"
268 build error. Fixed by Haijun Gu #2319.
Ron Eldor8a6917d2018-11-27 10:33:38 +0200269 * Fix signed-to-unsigned integer conversion warning
270 in X.509 module. Fixes #2212.
Peter Kolbus995d5c12019-02-03 08:41:41 -0600271 * Reduce stack usage of `mpi_write_hlp()` by eliminating recursion.
272 Fixes #2190.
Andres Amaya Garciad588ff72018-09-26 10:59:20 +0100273 * Fix false failure in all.sh when backup files exist in include/mbedtls
274 (e.g. config.h.bak). Fixed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin) #2407.
275 * Ensure that unused bits are zero when writing ASN.1 bitstrings when using
276 mbedtls_asn1_write_bitstring().
277 * Fix issue when writing the named bitstrings in KeyUsage and NsCertType
278 extensions in CSRs and CRTs that caused these bitstrings to not be encoded
Simon Butcher41f95192018-12-01 18:42:47 +0000279 correctly as trailing zeroes were not accounted for as unused bits in the
280 leading content octet. Fixes #1610.
Hanno Beckerbd9d51d2019-01-30 15:14:21 +0000281
282Changes
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500283 * Reduce RAM consumption during session renegotiation by not storing
284 the peer CRT chain and session ticket twice.
285 * Include configuration file in all header files that use configuration,
286 instead of relying on other header files that they include.
287 Inserted as an enhancement for #1371
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -0500288 * Add support for alternative CSR headers, as used by Microsoft and defined
289 in RFC 7468. Found by Michael Ernst. Fixes #767.
290 * Correct many misspellings. Fixed by MisterDA #2371.
291 * Provide an abstraction of vsnprintf to allow alternative implementations
292 for platforms that don't provide it. Based on contributions by Joris Aerts
293 and Nathaniel Wesley Filardo.
294 * Fix clobber list in MIPS assembly for large integer multiplication.
295 Previously, this could lead to functionally incorrect assembly being
296 produced by some optimizing compilers, showing up as failures in
k-stachowiakc5a4a132019-02-05 09:11:58 +0100297 e.g. RSA or ECC signature operations. Reported in #1722, fix suggested
298 by Aurelien Jarno and submitted by Jeffrey Martin.
Andres Amaya Garciaaabe52f2018-10-16 22:18:53 +0100299 * Reduce the complexity of the timing tests. They were assuming more than the
300 underlying OS actually guarantees.
k-stachowiakcddbd012019-02-19 12:40:34 +0100301 * Fix configuration queries in ssl-opt.h. #2030
302 * Ensure that ssl-opt.h can be run in OS X. #2029
Andres Amaya Garciaf8dffb32019-02-19 20:14:00 +0000303 * Re-enable certain interoperability tests in ssl-opt.sh which had previously
304 been disabled for lack of a sufficiently recent version of GnuTLS on the CI.
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500305 * Ciphersuites based on 3DES now have the lowest priority by default when
306 they are enabled.

309
310Features
311 * Add a new config.h option of MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS that enables validation
312 of parameters in the API. This allows detection of obvious misuses of the
313 API, such as passing NULL pointers. The API of existing functions hasn't
314 changed, but requirements on parameters have been made more explicit in
315 the documentation. See the corresponding API documentation for each
316 function to see for which parameter values it is defined. This feature is
317 disabled by default. See its API documentation in config.h for additional
318 steps you have to take when enabling it.
319
320API Changes
321 * The following functions in the random generator modules have been
322 deprecated and replaced as shown below. The new functions change
323 the return type from void to int to allow returning error codes when
324 using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT for the underlying AES or message digest
325 primitive. Fixes #1798.
326 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret()
327 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret()
328 * Extend ECDH interface to enable alternative implementations.
329 * Deprecate error codes of the form MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH for
330 ARIA, CAMELLIA and Blowfish. These error codes will be replaced by
331 the more generic per-module error codes MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
332 * Additional parameter validation checks have been added for the following
333 modules - AES, ARIA, Blowfish, CAMELLIA, CCM, GCM, DHM, ECP, ECDSA, ECDH,
334 ECJPAKE, SHA, Chacha20 and Poly1305, cipher, pk, RSA, and MPI.
335 Where modules have had parameter validation added, existing parameter
336 checks may have changed. Some modules, such as Chacha20 had existing
337 parameter validation whereas other modules had little. This has now been
338 changed so that the same level of validation is present in all modules, and
339 that it is now optional with the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS flag which by default
340 is off. That means that checks which were previously present by default
341 will no longer be.
342
343New deprecations
344 * Deprecate mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update
345 in favor of functions that can return an error code.

347Bugfix
348 * Fix for Clang, which was reporting a warning for the bignum.c inline
349 assembly for AMD64 targets creating string literals greater than those
350 permitted by the ISO C99 standard. Found by Aaron Jones. Fixes #482.
351 * Fix runtime error in `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` when run
352 through qemu user emulation. Reported and fix suggested by randombit
353 in #1212. Fixes #1212.
354 * Fix an unsafe bounds check when restoring an SSL session from a ticket.
355 This could lead to a buffer overflow, but only in case ticket authentication
356 was broken. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #659.
357 * Add explicit integer to enumeration type casts to example program
358 programs/pkey/gen_key which previously led to compilation failure
359 on some toolchains. Reported by phoenixmcallister. Fixes #2170.
360 * Fix double initialization of ECC hardware that made some accelerators
361 hang.
362 * Clarify documentation of mbedtls_ssl_set_own_cert() regarding the absence
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -0500363 of check for certificate/key matching. Reported by Attila Molnar, #507.

385Security
386 * Fix timing variations and memory access variations in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
387 decryption that could lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle
388 attack. In TLS, this affects servers that accept ciphersuites based on
389 RSA decryption (i.e. ciphersuites whose name contains RSA but not
390 (EC)DH(E)). Discovered by Eyal Ronen (Weizmann Institute), Robert Gillham
391 (University of Adelaide), Daniel Genkin (University of Michigan),
392 Adi Shamir (Weizmann Institute), David Wong (NCC Group), and Yuval Yarom
393 (University of Adelaide, Data61). The attack is described in more detail
394 in the paper available here: http://cat.eyalro.net/cat.pdf CVE-2018-19608
395 * In mbedtls_mpi_write_binary(), don't leak the exact size of the number
396 via branching and memory access patterns. An attacker who could submit
397 a plaintext for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption but only observe the timing
398 of the decryption and not its result could nonetheless decrypt RSA
399 plaintexts and forge RSA signatures. Other asymmetric algorithms may
400 have been similarly vulnerable. Reported by Eyal Ronen, Robert Gillham,
401 Daniel Genkin, Adi Shamir, David Wong and Yuval Yarom.
402 * Wipe sensitive buffers on the stack in the CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG
403 modules.
404
405API Changes
406 * The new functions mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret() and
407 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret() are similar to mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update()
408 and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() respectively, but the new functions
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -0500409 report errors whereas the old functions return void. We recommend that
Simon Butcherc1b98922018-11-19 18:31:40 +0000410 applications use the new functions.

Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000415 * Fix overly strict DN comparison when looking for CRLs belonging to a
416 particular CA. This previously led to ignoring CRLs when the CRL's issuer
417 name and the CA's subject name differed in their string encoding (e.g.,
418 one using PrintableString and the other UTF8String) or in the choice of
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +0100419 upper and lower case. Reported by Henrik Andersson of Bosch GmbH in issue
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +0000420 #1784.
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +0100421 * Fix a flawed bounds check in server PSK hint parsing. In case the
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +0000422 incoming message buffer was placed within the first 64KiB of address
423 space and a PSK-(EC)DHE ciphersuite was used, this allowed an attacker
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +0100424 to trigger a memory access up to 64KiB beyond the incoming message buffer,
425 potentially leading to an application crash or information disclosure.
426 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() to use more rounds of probabilistic testing. The
427 previous settings for the number of rounds made it practical for an
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000428 adversary to construct non-primes that would be erroneously accepted as
429 primes with high probability. This does not have an impact on the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +0100430 security of TLS, but can matter in other contexts with numbers chosen
431 potentially by an adversary that should be prime and can be validated.
432 For example, the number of rounds was enough to securely generate RSA key
433 pairs or Diffie-Hellman parameters, but was insufficient to validate
434 Diffie-Hellman parameters properly.

Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +0000438Features
439 * Add support for temporarily suspending expensive ECC computations after
440 some configurable amount of operations. This is intended to be used in
441 constrained, single-threaded systems where ECC is time consuming and can
442 block other operations until they complete. This is disabled by default,
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +0200443 but can be enabled by MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE at compile time and
444 configured by mbedtls_ecp_set_max_ops() at runtime. It applies to the new
445 xxx_restartable functions in ECP, ECDSA, PK and X.509 (CRL not supported
446 yet), and to existing functions in ECDH and SSL (currently only
Simon Butcher4a865ef2018-10-28 18:00:51 +0000447 implemented client-side, for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphersuites in TLS 1.2,
448 including client authentication).
449 * Add support for Arm CPU DSP extensions to accelerate asymmetric key
450 operations. On CPUs where the extensions are available, they can accelerate
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +0000451 MPI multiplications used in ECC and RSA cryptography. Contributed by
452 Aurelien Jarno.
453 * Extend RSASSA-PSS signature to allow a smaller salt size. Previously, PSS
454 signature always used a salt with the same length as the hash, and returned
455 an error if this was not possible. Now the salt size may be up to two bytes
Simon Butcher06d80cf2018-11-06 23:46:04 +0000456 shorter. This allows the library to support all hash and signature sizes
457 that comply with FIPS 186-4, including SHA-512 with a 1024-bit key.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard823c9152018-07-02 12:05:49 +0200458 * Add support for 128-bit keys in CTR_DRBG. Note that using keys shorter
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +0000459 than 256 bits limits the security of generated material to 128 bits.
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +0000460

Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +0000471 platform error.
472 * All module specific generic hardware acceleration errors following the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +0100473 form MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED that are deprecated and are replaced
474 by the equivalent plaform error.
475 * Deprecate the function mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() in favor of
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +0300476 mbedtls_mpi_is_prime_ext() which allows specifying the number of

483 Fixes #2069.
Simon Butcher1afc7672018-09-27 11:35:19 +0100484 * Fix a bug in the update function for SSL ticket keys which previously
485 invalidated keys of a lifetime of less than a 1s. Fixes #1968.
Hanno Beckerf24c3362018-10-17 14:53:05 +0100486 * Fix failure in hmac_drbg in the benchmark sample application, when

488 * Fix a bug in the record decryption routine ssl_decrypt_buf()
Hanno Becker617a3212018-10-05 09:51:36 +0100489 which lead to accepting properly authenticated but improperly
490 padded records in case of CBC ciphersuites using Encrypt-then-MAC.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000491 * Fix memory leak and freeing without initialization in the example
492 program programs/x509/cert_write. Fixes #1422.
Hanno Becker7e1f3be2018-10-15 13:20:28 +0100493 * Ignore IV in mbedtls_cipher_set_iv() when the cipher mode is
494 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB. Found by ezdevelop. Fixes #1091.
495 * Zeroize memory used for buffering or reassembling handshake messages
496 after use.
Hanno Beckerf143a782018-11-06 17:43:16 +0000497 * Use `mbedtls_platform_zeroize()` instead of `memset()` for zeroization
498 of sensitive data in the example programs aescrypt2 and crypt_and_hash.
499 * Change the default string format used for various X.509 DN attributes to
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000500 UTF8String. Previously, the use of the PrintableString format led to
501 wildcards and non-ASCII characters being unusable in some DN attributes.

511 * Add tests for session resumption in DTLS.
512 * Close a test gap in (D)TLS between the client side and the server side:
Simon Butcherddc9e262018-10-27 18:27:41 +0100513 test the handling of large packets and small packets on the client side
514 in the same way as on the server side.
Simon Butcher404aa652018-10-01 14:44:22 +0100515 * Change the dtls_client and dtls_server samples to work by default over
516 IPv6 and optionally by a build option over IPv4.
517 * Change the use of Windows threading to use Microsoft Visual C++ runtime
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +0000518 calls, rather than Win32 API calls directly. This is necessary to avoid
519 conflict with C runtime usage. Found and fixed by irwir.
520 * Remember the string format of X.509 DN attributes when replicating
521 X.509 DNs. Previously, DN attributes were always written in their default
522 string format (mostly PrintableString), which could lead to CRTs being
523 created which used PrintableStrings in the issuer field even though the
524 signing CA used UTF8Strings in its subject field; while X.509 compliant,
525 such CRTs were rejected in some applications, e.g. some versions of
Hanno Becker0bb204c2018-10-30 10:08:33 +0000526 Firefox, curl and GnuTLS. Reported in #1033 by Moschn. Fix contributed by

529 Fixes #517 reported by github-monoculture.
530 * Add MBEDTLS_MPI_GEN_PRIME_FLAG_LOW_ERR flag to mbedtls_mpi_gen_prime() and
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +0100531 use it to reduce error probability in RSA key generation to levels mandated

590 with TLS versions 1.1 and earlier when the server requested authentication
591 without providing a list of CAs. This was due to an overly strict bounds

617Security
618 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC and using SHA-384,
619 in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed an active network attacker to
620 partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions by
621 exploiting timing measurements. With DTLS, the attacker could perform
622 this recovery by sending many messages in the same connection. With TLS
623 or if mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only
624 worked if the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly
625 sent over connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM
626 or CCM instead of CBC, using hash sizes other than SHA-384, or using
627 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. The vulnerability was
628 caused by a miscalculation (for SHA-384) in a countermeasure to the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cc1fb02018-06-28 12:10:27 +0200629 original Lucky 13 attack. Found by Kenny Paterson, Eyal Ronen and Adi

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard830ce112018-07-11 18:27:08 +0200634 plaintext of messages under some conditions by using a cache attack
635 targeting an internal MD/SHA buffer. With TLS or if
636 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only worked if
637 the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly sent over
638 connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM or CCM
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard7b420302018-06-28 10:38:35 +0200639 instead of CBC or using Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected.

812 contributed by Brian J Murray and David Brown.
813 * Add missing dependencies in test suites that led to build failures
Jaeden Amerob6049602018-03-26 18:25:58 +0100814 in configurations that omit certain hashes or public-key algorithms.
815 Fixes #1040.
Gilles Peskinef69ad5a2018-03-27 23:08:53 +0200816 * Fix C89 incompatibility in benchmark.c. Contributed by Brendan Shanks.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100817 #1353
818 * Add missing dependencies for MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE and
819 MBEDTLS_VERSION_FEATURES in some test suites. Contributed by
820 Deomid Ryabkov. Fixes #1299, #1475.
Jethro Beekmand2df9362018-02-16 13:11:04 -0800821 * Fix the Makefile build process for building shared libraries on Mac OS X.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100822 Fixed by mnacamura.
Jethro Beekmancb122372018-04-11 08:40:38 -0700823 * Fix parsing of PKCS#8 encoded Elliptic Curve keys. Previously Mbed TLS was
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100824 unable to parse keys which had only the optional parameters field of the
825 ECPrivateKey structure. Found by Jethro Beekman, fixed in #1379.
826 * Return the plaintext data more quickly on unpadded CBC decryption, as
Gilles Peskineb9e86962018-04-04 09:20:59 +0200827 stated in the mbedtls_cipher_update() documentation. Contributed by
828 Andy Leiserson.
Hanno Beckerc53826b2017-10-12 07:46:41 +0100829 * Fix overriding and ignoring return values when parsing and writing to
830 a file in pk_sign program. Found by kevlut in #1142.
831 * Restrict usage of error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ to situations
832 where data needs to be fetched from the underlying transport in order
833 to make progress. Previously, this error code was also occasionally
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100834 returned when unexpected messages were being discarded, ignoring that
835 further messages could potentially already be pending to be processed
Gilles Peskinef2b76cd2018-04-19 17:41:39 +0200836 in the internal buffers; these cases led to deadlocks when event-driven
837 I/O was used. Found and reported by Hubert Mis in #772.
838 * Fix buffer length assertions in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
Andrzej Kurek5462e022018-04-20 07:58:53 -0400839 function which leads to a potential one byte overread of the message
840 buffer.
Simon Butchere6a2a1a2018-05-01 13:57:53 +0100841 * Fix invalid buffer sizes passed to zlib during record compression and
842 decompression.
843 * Fix the soversion of libmbedcrypto to match the soversion of the
844 maintained 2.7 branch. The soversion was increased in Mbed TLS
Gilles Peskine08185402018-03-22 21:50:48 +0100845 version 2.7.1 to reflect breaking changes in that release, but the
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +0100846 increment was missed in 2.8.0 and later releases outside of the 2.7 branch.

Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100848Changes
849 * Remove some redundant code in bignum.c. Contributed by Alexey Skalozub.
Gilles Peskine51d93942018-03-23 01:42:44 +0100850 * Support cmake builds where Mbed TLS is a subproject. Fix contributed
851 independently by Matthieu Volat and Arne Schwabe.
852 * Improve testing in configurations that omit certain hashes or
Andres Amaya Garcia768bbaf2018-03-21 15:05:12 +0000853 public-key algorithms. Includes contributions by Gert van Dijk.
854 * Improve negative testing of X.509 parsing.
855 * Do not define global mutexes around readdir() and gmtime() in
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100856 configurations where the feature is disabled. Found and fixed by Gergely
857 Budai.
858 * Harden the function mbedtls_ssl_config_free() against misuse, so that it
859 doesn't leak memory if the user doesn't use mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk() and
Andres Amaya Garciacb47a792018-03-27 21:19:50 +0100860 instead incorrectly manipulates the configuration structure directly.
861 Found and fix submitted by junyeonLEE in #1220.
862 * Provide an empty implementation of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() when
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfff308e2018-03-28 11:13:05 +0200863 MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is not enabled. This allows the use of PBKDF2
864 without PBES2. Fixed by Marcos Del Sol Vives.
865 * Add the order of the base point as N in the mbedtls_ecp_group structure
Jaeden Amero4ba87fc2018-03-29 11:01:38 +0100866 for Curve25519 (other curves had it already). Contributed by Nicholas
867 Wilson #481
Darryl Greeneea1c4e2018-03-29 16:05:44 +0100868 * Improve the documentation of mbedtls_net_accept(). Contributed by Ivan
869 Krylov.
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100870 * Improve the documentation of mbedtls_ssl_write(). Suggested by
Andres Amaya Garciad1b17882018-03-27 19:14:24 +0100871 Paul Sokolovsky in #1356.
872 * Add an option in the Makefile to support ar utilities where the operation
Andres Amaya Garciaea5a8a42018-03-25 23:57:09 +0100873 letter must not be prefixed by '-', such as LLVM. Found and fixed by
Andres Amaya Garciad1b17882018-03-27 19:14:24 +0100874 Alex Hixon.
Gilles Peskine4e4be7c2018-03-21 16:29:03 +0100875 * Allow configuring the shared library extension by setting the DLEXT
Gilles Peskine092bf3d2018-04-01 12:43:48 +0200876 environment variable when using the project makefiles.
Gilles Peskinea09453f2018-04-04 09:14:12 +0200877 * Optimize unnecessary zeroing in mbedtls_mpi_copy. Based on a contribution
878 by Alexey Skalozub in #405.
879 * In the SSL module, when f_send, f_recv or f_recv_timeout report
Gilles Peskinec96ccf42018-03-31 22:57:03 +0200880 transmitting more than the required length, return an error. Raised by
881 Sam O'Connor in #1245.
882 * Improve robustness of mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys against the use of
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +0100883 HMAC functions with non-HMAC ciphersuites. Independently contributed
884 by Jiayuan Chen in #1377. Fixes #1437.
Gilles Peskine81021ca2018-04-19 20:59:06 +0200885 * Improve security of RSA key generation by including criteria from
886 FIPS 186-4. Contributed by Jethro Beekman. #1380
887 * Declare functions in header files even when an alternative implementation
888 of the corresponding module is activated by defining the corresponding
889 MBEDTLS_XXX_ALT macro. This means that alternative implementations do
Andrzej Kurekaca09c72018-04-13 05:18:08 -0400890 not need to copy the declarations, and ensures that they will have the
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +0100891 same API.
Jaeden Amero8be0e6d2018-03-16 16:25:12 +0000892 * Add platform setup and teardown calls in test suites.

896Default behavior changes
897 * The truncated HMAC extension now conforms to RFC 6066. This means
898 that when both sides of a TLS connection negotiate the truncated
899 HMAC extension, Mbed TLS can now interoperate with other
900 compliant implementations, but this breaks interoperability with
901 prior versions of Mbed TLS. To restore the old behavior, enable
902 the (deprecated) option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT in
903 config.h. Found by Andreas Walz (ivESK, Offenburg University of
Hanno Becker7dc832b2017-11-16 17:39:34 +0000904 Applied Sciences).

907 * Fix implementation of the truncated HMAC extension. The previous
908 implementation allowed an offline 2^80 brute force attack on the
Gilles Peskine553a06f2018-03-13 17:15:34 +0100909 HMAC key of a single, uninterrupted connection (with no
910 resumption of the session).
Krzysztof Stachowiak00bbf572018-03-14 11:14:13 +0100911 * Verify results of RSA private key operations to defend
912 against Bellcore glitch attack.
Krzysztof Stachowiak7fa1ae72018-03-13 17:17:38 +0100913 * Fix a buffer overread in ssl_parse_server_key_exchange() that could cause
914 a crash on invalid input.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfd3e4fb2018-03-13 11:53:30 +0100915 * Fix a buffer overread in ssl_parse_server_psk_hint() that could cause a
916 crash on invalid input.
Hanno Becker7dc832b2017-11-16 17:39:34 +0000917 * Fix CRL parsing to reject CRLs containing unsupported critical

920Features
Gilles Peskine1d80a672018-02-14 11:33:30 +0100921 * Extend PKCS#8 interface by introducing support for the entire SHA
922 algorithms family when encrypting private keys using PKCS#5 v2.0.
923 This allows reading encrypted PEM files produced by software that
Gilles Peskine3dabd6a2018-02-14 17:19:41 +0100924 uses PBKDF2-SHA2, such as OpenSSL 1.1. Submitted by Antonio Quartulli,

Gilles Peskine1bf61232018-02-27 08:37:52 +0100936 * Fix mbedtls_x509_crt_profile_suiteb, which used to reject all certificates
937 with flag MBEDTLS_X509_BADCERT_BAD_PK even when the key type was correct.
Jaeden Ameroc5d08f82018-02-21 13:32:39 +0000938 In the context of SSL, this resulted in handshake failure. Reported by

940 * Fix Windows x64 builds with the included mbedTLS.sln file. #1347
941 * Fix setting version TLSv1 as minimal version, even if TLS 1
942 is not enabled. Set MBEDTLS_SSL_MIN_MAJOR_VERSION

Ron Eldorbc18eb32017-09-06 17:49:10 +0300945 * Fix compilation error on Mingw32 when _TRUNCATE is defined. Use _TRUNCATE
Gilles Peskine08af5382018-03-11 00:15:56 +0100946 only if __MINGW32__ not defined. Fix suggested by Thomas Glanzmann and

977Security
978 * Fix a heap corruption issue in the implementation of the truncated HMAC
979 extension. When the truncated HMAC extension is enabled and CBC is used,
980 sending a malicious application packet could be used to selectively corrupt
981 6 bytes on the peer's heap, which could potentially lead to crash or remote
982 code execution. The issue could be triggered remotely from either side in
983 both TLS and DTLS. CVE-2018-0488
984 * Fix a buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the hash was too large
985 for the key size, which could potentially lead to crash or remote code
986 execution. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm Product Security Initiative,
987 Qualcomm Technologies Inc. CVE-2018-0487
988 * Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the unmasked data is all
989 zeros.
990 * Fix an unsafe bounds check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity() when adding
Hanno Becker930025d2017-09-18 16:07:19 +0100991 64 KiB to the address of the SSL buffer and causing a wrap around.
992 * Fix a potential heap buffer overflow in mbedtls_ssl_write(). When the (by
993 default enabled) maximum fragment length extension is disabled in the
994 config and the application data buffer passed to mbedtls_ssl_write
995 is larger than the internal message buffer (16384 bytes by default), the
996 latter overflows. The exploitability of this issue depends on whether the
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +0000997 application layer can be forced into sending such large packets. The issue
998 was independently reported by Tim Nordell via e-mail and by Florin Petriuc
999 and sjorsdewit on GitHub. Fix proposed by Florin Petriuc in #1022.
1000 Fixes #707.
Andres Amaya Garcia364051f2017-07-05 15:40:17 +01001001 * Add a provision to prevent compiler optimizations breaking the time

Ron Eldor31162e42017-09-05 15:34:35 +03001003 * Ensure that buffers are cleared after use if they contain sensitive data.
1004 Changes were introduced in multiple places in the library.
Janos Follathb174c842017-09-20 16:26:04 +01001005 * Set PEM buffer to zero before freeing it, to avoid decoded private keys
1006 being leaked to memory after release.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001007 * Fix dhm_check_range() failing to detect trivial subgroups and potentially
1008 leaking 1 bit of the private key. Reported by prashantkspatil.
1009 * Make mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() constant-time with respect to the input
1010 data. Previously, trailing zero bytes were detected and omitted for the
Hanno Becker509fef72017-10-19 10:10:18 +01001011 sake of saving memory, but potentially leading to slight timing
1012 differences. Reported by Marco Macchetti, Kudelski Group.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001013 * Wipe stack buffer temporarily holding EC private exponent
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard239987f2018-01-09 10:43:43 +01001014 after keypair generation.
1015 * Fix a potential heap buffer over-read in ALPN extension parsing
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01001016 (server-side). Could result in application crash, but only if an ALPN

1051 mbedtls_rsa_import() and mbedtls_rsa_complete() are introduced for setting
1052 up RSA contexts from partial key material and having them completed to the
1053 needs of the implementation automatically. This allows to setup private RSA
1054 contexts from keys consisting of N,D,E only, even if P,Q are needed for the
1055 purpose or CRT and/or blinding.
Gilles Peskine0a969102018-01-22 14:55:20 +01001056 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_RSA_ALT can be used to define alternative
1057 implementations of the RSA interface declared in rsa.h.
1058 * The following functions in the message digest modules (MD2, MD4, MD5,
1059 SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) have been deprecated and replaced as shown below.
1060 The new functions change the return type from void to int to allow
1061 returning error codes when using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT.
1062 mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts_ret()
Andres Amaya Garciaf01a6442017-07-03 16:00:59 +01001063 mbedtls_<MODULE>_update() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_update_ret()
Gilles Peskineb04e2c32017-09-29 15:45:12 +02001064 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish() -> mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish_ret()
Ron Eldor73a38172017-10-03 15:58:26 +03001065 mbedtls_<MODULE>_process() -> mbedtls_internal_<MODULE>_process()
1066
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001067New deprecations
Andres Amaya Garciaf569f702017-06-28 09:25:10 +01001068 * Deprecate usage of RSA primitives with non-matching key-type
1069 (e.g. signing with a public key).
Jaeden Amero005239e2018-01-25 14:47:39 +00001070 * Direct manipulation of structure fields of RSA contexts is deprecated.
1071 Users are advised to use the extended RSA API instead.
1072 * Deprecate usage of message digest functions that return void
1073 (mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts, mbedtls_<MODULE>_update,
1074 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish and mbedtls_<MODULE>_process where <MODULE> is
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01001075 any of MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) in favor of functions
1076 that can return an error code.
1077 * Deprecate untrustworthy DHE parameters from RFC 5114. Superseded by
1078 parameters from RFC 3526 or the newly added parameters from RFC 7919.
1079 * Deprecate hex string DHE constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P etc.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00001080 Supserseded by binary encoded constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P_BIN
1081 etc.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01001082 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param() for setting default DHE parameters
Andres Amaya Garcia06fc6652017-06-26 15:19:26 +01001083 from hex strings. Superseded by mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param_bin()
Andres Amaya Garcia06fc6652017-06-26 15:19:26 +01001084 accepting DHM parameters in binary form, matching the new constants.

1270Bugfix
1271 * Remove size zero arrays from ECJPAKE test suite. Size zero arrays are not
Hanno Becker7e5437a2017-04-28 17:15:26 +01001272 valid C and they prevented the test from compiling in Visual Studio 2015
1273 and with GCC using the -Wpedantic compilation option.
Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01001274 * Fix insufficient support for signature-hash-algorithm extension,
1275 resulting in compatibility problems with Chrome. Found by hfloyrd. #823
Gilles Peskine3df98f52017-05-10 17:47:40 +02001276 * Fix behaviour that hid the original cause of fatal alerts in some cases
Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01001277 when sending the alert failed. The fix makes sure not to hide the error
1278 that triggered the alert.
1279 * Fix SSLv3 renegotiation behaviour and stop processing data received from
1280 peer after sending a fatal alert to refuse a renegotiation attempt.
Hanno Becker39ae8cd2017-05-08 16:31:14 +01001281 Previous behaviour was to keep processing data even after the alert has

1286 fatal errors in authentication mode MBEDTLS_SSL_VERIFY_OPTIONAL and to
1287 reflect bad EC curves within verification result.
1288 * Fix bug that caused the modular inversion function to accept the invalid
1289 modulus 1 and therefore to hang. Found by blaufish. #641.

1743
1744Features
1745 * Support for DTLS 1.0 and 1.2 (RFC 6347).
1746 * Ability to override core functions from MDx, SHAx, AES and DES modules
1747 with custom implementation (eg hardware accelerated), complementing the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard4d7fbbf2014-10-15 15:40:55 +02001748 ability to override the whole module.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02001749 * New server-side implementation of session tickets that rotate keys to
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda25ffc32015-06-25 12:01:16 +02001750 preserve forward secrecy, and allows sharing across multiple contexts.
1751 * Added a concept of X.509 cerificate verification profile that controls
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001752 which algorithms and key sizes (curves for ECDSA) are acceptable.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6e088f92015-05-06 17:53:08 +01001753 * Expanded configurability of security parameters in the SSL module with
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001754 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dhm_min_bitlen() and mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6e088f92015-05-06 17:53:08 +01001755 * Introduced a concept of presets for SSL security-relevant configuration
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard898e0aa2015-06-18 15:28:12 +02001756 parameters.

1758API Changes
1759 * The library has been split into libmbedcrypto, libmbedx509, libmbedtls.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001760 You now need to link to all of them if you use TLS for example.
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01001761 * All public identifiers moved to the mbedtls_* or MBEDTLS_* namespace.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02001762 Some names have been further changed to make them more consistent.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6bdc442014-09-17 11:34:57 +02001763 Migration helpers scripts/rename.pl and include/mbedtls/compat-1.3.h are
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02001764 provided. Full list of renamings in scripts/data_files/rename-1.3-2.0.txt
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02001765 * Renamings of fields inside structures, not covered by the previous list:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02001766 mbedtls_cipher_info_t.key_length -> key_bitlen
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard41d479e2015-04-29 00:48:22 +02001767 mbedtls_cipher_context_t.key_length -> key_bitlen
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02001768 mbedtls_ecp_curve_info.size -> bit_size
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc34e8dd2015-04-28 21:42:17 +02001769 * Headers are now found in the 'mbedtls' directory (previously 'polarssl').
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02001770 * The following _init() functions that could return errors have
1771 been split into an _init() that returns void and another function that
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02001772 should generally be the first function called on this context after init:
1773 mbedtls_ssl_init() -> mbedtls_ssl_setup()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001774 mbedtls_ccm_init() -> mbedtls_ccm_setkey()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02001775 mbedtls_gcm_init() -> mbedtls_gcm_setkey()
Tillmann Karras588ad502015-09-25 04:27:22 +02001776 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_init() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_seed(_buf)()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02001777 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_init() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_seed()
1778 Note that for mbedtls_ssl_setup(), you need to be done setting up the
1779 ssl_config structure before calling it.
1780 * Most ssl_set_xxx() functions (all except ssl_set_bio(), ssl_set_hostname(),
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9a1a4d62015-05-11 10:35:53 +02001781 ssl_set_session() and ssl_set_client_transport_id(), plus
1782 ssl_legacy_renegotiation()) have been renamed to mbedtls_ssl_conf_xxx()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001783 (see rename.pl and compat-1.3.h above) and their first argument's type
1784 changed from ssl_context to ssl_config.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9a1a4d62015-05-11 10:35:53 +02001785 * ssl_set_bio() changed signature (contexts merged, order switched, one
1786 additional callback for read-with-timeout).
1787 * The following functions have been introduced and must be used in callback
1788 implementations (SNI, PSK) instead of their *conf counterparts:
1789 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_own_cert()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02001790 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ca_chain()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc2b7712015-05-06 11:14:19 +01001791 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02001792 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_ca_chain() lost its last argument (peer_cn), now set
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5cb33082015-05-06 18:06:26 +01001793 using mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard866eb472015-05-25 19:41:37 +02001794 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_cache() changed prototype (only one context
1795 pointer, parameters reordered).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfd474232015-06-23 16:34:24 +02001796 * On server, mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets_cb() must now be used in
1797 place of mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets() to enable session tickets.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02001798 * The SSL debug callback gained two new arguments (file name, line number).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001799 * Debug modes were removed.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02001800 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_truncated_hmac() now returns void.
1801 * mbedtls_memory_buffer_alloc_init() now returns void.
1802 * X.509 verification flags are now an uint32_t. Affect the signature of:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01001803 mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02001804 mbedtls_x509_ctr_verify_info()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc6ff232015-06-02 16:33:08 +01001805 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (flags, f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)
1806 mbedtls_ssl_conf_verify() (f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)
1807 * The following functions changed prototype to avoid an in-out length
1808 parameter:
1809 mbedtls_base64_encode()
1810 mbedtls_base64_decode()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard91895852015-06-30 13:34:45 +02001811 mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
1812 mbedtls_dhm_calc_secret()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0b104b02015-05-14 21:52:40 +02001813 * In the NET module, all "int" and "int *" arguments for file descriptors
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard8f5fd312015-04-24 14:42:34 +02001814 changed type to "mbedtls_net_context *".
1815 * net_accept() gained new arguments for the size of the client_ip buffer.
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01001816 * In the threading layer, mbedtls_mutex_init() and mbedtls_mutex_free() now
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarddfdcac92015-03-31 11:41:42 +02001817 return void.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardb8cfe3f2015-03-31 11:04:45 +02001818 * ecdsa_write_signature() gained an additional md_alg argument and
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cd10ad2015-06-23 11:07:37 +02001819 ecdsa_write_signature_det() was deprecated.
1820 * pk_sign() no longer accepts md_alg == POLARSSL_MD_NONE with ECDSA.

1822 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_key_usage() changed from int to unsigned.
1823 * test_ca_list (from certs.h) is renamed to test_cas_pem and is only
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard75f90102015-03-27 09:56:18 +01001824 available if POLARSSL_PEM_PARSE_C is defined (it never worked without).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard43b37cb2015-05-12 11:20:10 +02001825 * Test certificates in certs.c are no longer guaranteed to be nul-terminated
1826 strings; use the new *_len variables instead of strlen().
1827 * Functions mbedtls_x509_xxx_parse(), mbedtls_pk_parse_key(),
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard35f1d7f2015-03-19 12:42:40 +00001828 mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() and mbedtls_dhm_parse_dhm() now expect the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5b9e5b12015-05-26 17:46:09 +02001829 length parameter to include the terminating null byte for PEM input.
1830 * Signature of mpi_mul_mpi() changed to make the last argument unsigned
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1b8de572015-05-27 16:49:37 +02001831 * calloc() is now used instead of malloc() everywhere. API of platform
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88bdb0b2015-03-10 14:02:33 +00001832 layer and the memory_buffer_alloc module changed accordingly.
1833 (Thanks to Mansour Moufid for helping with the replacement.)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard60c793b2015-06-18 20:52:58 +02001834 * Change SSL_DISABLE_RENEGOTIATION config.h flag to SSL_RENEGOTIATION
1835 (support for renegotiation now needs explicit enabling in config.h).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02001836 * Split MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME into MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME and MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE
1837 in config.h
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc0d74942015-06-23 12:30:57 +02001838 * net_connect() and net_bind() have a new 'proto' argument to choose
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02001839 between TCP and UDP, using the macros NET_PROTO_TCP or NET_PROTO_UDP.
1840 Their 'port' argument type is changed to a string.

1846 mbedtls_ecp_muladd().
1847 * Removed individual mdX_hmac, shaX_hmac, mdX_file and shaX_file functions
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda63bc942015-05-14 18:22:47 +02001848 (use generic functions from md.h)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard53585ee2015-06-25 08:52:25 +02001849 * Removed mbedtls_timing_msleep(). Use mbedtls_net_usleep() or a custom

1856 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_LONGLONG was removed (now always on).
1857 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_INT8 and POLARSSL_HAVE_INT16 have
1858 been removed (compiler is required to support 32-bit operations).
1859 * Configuration option POLARSSL_HAVE_IPV6 was removed (always enabled).
1860 * Removed test program o_p_test, the script compat.sh does more.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1022fed2015-03-27 16:30:47 +01001861 * Removed test program ssl_test, superseded by ssl-opt.sh.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02001865 * md_init_ctx() is deprecated in favour of md_setup(), that adds a third
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1022fed2015-03-27 16:30:47 +01001866 argument (allowing memory savings if HMAC is not used)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard50518f42015-05-26 11:04:15 +02001867
1868Semi-API changes (technically public, morally private)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc89d6cf2015-03-31 14:43:19 +02001869 * Renamed a few headers to include _internal in the name. Those headers are
1870 not supposed to be included by users.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard50518f42015-05-26 11:04:15 +02001871 * Changed md_info_t into an opaque structure (use md_get_xxx() accessors).

1880 * The default minimum TLS version is now TLS 1.0.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88bdb0b2015-03-10 14:02:33 +00001881 * RC4 is now blacklisted by default in the SSL/TLS layer, and excluded from the
1882 default ciphersuite list returned by ssl_list_ciphersuites()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfa44f202015-03-27 17:52:25 +01001883 * Support for receiving SSLv2 ClientHello is now disabled by default at

1885 * The default authmode for SSL/TLS clients is now REQUIRED.
1886 * Support for RSA_ALT contexts in the PK layer is now optional. Since is is
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1028b742015-05-06 17:33:07 +01001887 enabled in the default configuration, this is only noticeable if using a
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88d37852015-06-17 14:26:49 +02001888 custom config.h
1889 * Default DHM parameters server-side upgraded from 1024 to 2048 bits.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard662c6e82015-05-06 17:39:23 +01001890 * A minimum RSA key size of 2048 bits is now enforced during ceritificate

3079Changes
Paul Bakkera35aa542013-03-06 17:06:21 +01003080 * Major argument / variable rewrite. Introduced use of size_t
3081 instead of int for buffer lengths and loop variables for
Paul Bakker6c591fa2011-05-05 11:49:20 +00003082 better unsigned / signed use. Renamed internal bigint types

3085 argument and do not accept variable argument lists anymore.
Paul Bakkera35aa542013-03-06 17:06:21 +01003086 * The error codes have been remapped and combining error codes
Paul Bakker831a7552011-05-18 13:32:51 +00003087 is now done with a PLUS instead of an OR as error codes
3088 used are negative.
Paul Bakkera35aa542013-03-06 17:06:21 +01003089 * Changed behaviour of net_read(), ssl_fetch_input() and ssl_recv().

3091 POLARSSL_ERR_NET_CONN_RESET. ssl_fetch_input() returns
3092 POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF on an EOF from its f_recv() function.
Paul Bakker831a7552011-05-18 13:32:51 +00003093 ssl_read() returns 0 if a POLARSSL_ERR_SSL_CONN_EOF is received
3094 after the handshake.
Paul Bakkera35aa542013-03-06 17:06:21 +01003095 * Network functions now return POLARSSL_ERR_NET_WANT_READ or

Paul Bakkera35aa542013-03-06 17:06:21 +01003111 * x509parse_key() (and as a consequence x509parse_keyfile())
Paul Bakkerbe4e7dc2011-03-14 20:41:31 +00003112 does not zeroize memory in advance anymore. Use rsa_init()
3113 before parsing a key or keyfile!
