Dave Rodgman76049152023-11-07 12:33:17 +00009Bugfix
10 * Fix accidental omission of MBEDTLS_TARGET_PREFIX in 3rdparty modules
11 in CMake.

Minos Galanakis974388f2023-10-03 22:07:22 +010013= Mbed TLS 3.5.0 branch released 2023-10-05
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +010014
15API changes
16 * Mbed TLS 3.4 introduced support for omitting the built-in implementation
17 of ECDSA and/or EC J-PAKE when those are provided by a driver. However,
Dave Rodgmanc0e1f3e2023-11-03 11:08:05 +000018 there was a flaw in the logic checking if the built-in implementation, in
19 that it failed to check if all the relevant curves were supported by the
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +010020 accelerator. As a result, it was possible to declare no curves as
21 accelerated and still have the built-in implementation compiled out.
22 Starting with this release, it is necessary to declare which curves are
23 accelerated (using MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_ECC_xxx macros), or they will be
24 considered not accelerated, and the built-in implementation of the curves
25 and any algorithm possible using them will be included in the build.
26 * Add new millisecond time type `mbedtls_ms_time_t` and `mbedtls_ms_time()`
27 function, needed for TLS 1.3 ticket lifetimes. Alternative implementations
28 can be created using an ALT interface.
29
30Requirement changes
31 * Officially require Python 3.8 now that earlier versions are out of support.
32 * Minimum required Windows version is now Windows Vista, or
33 Windows Server 2008.
34
35New deprecations
36 * PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR and
37 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR, where xxx is either ECC or RSA,
38 are now being deprecated in favor of PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
39 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy. Here yyy can be: BASIC,
40 IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE. The goal is to have a finer detail about
41 the capabilities of the PSA side for either key.
42 * MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX is deprecated in favor of
43 MBEDTLS_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH (if you intended what the name suggests:
44 maximum size of any supported block cipher) or the new name
45 MBEDTLS_CMAC_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE (if you intended the actual semantics:
46 maximum size of a block cipher supported by the CMAC module).
47 * mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() and mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() functions are now
48 deprecated in favor of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() and
49 mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext() as they offer more security by checking
50 for overflow of the output buffer and reporting the actual length
51 of the output.
52
53Features
54 * All modules that use hashes or HMAC can now take advantage of PSA Crypto
55 drivers when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is enabled and psa_crypto_init() has
56 been called. Previously (in 3.3), this was restricted to a few modules,
57 and only in builds where MBEDTLS_MD_C was disabled; in particular the
58 entropy module was not covered which meant an external RNG had to be
59 provided - these limitations are lifted in this version. A new set of
60 feature macros, MBEDTLS_MD_CAN_xxx, has been introduced that can be used
61 to check for availability of hash algorithms, regardless of whether
62 they're provided by a built-in implementation, a driver or both. See
63 docs/driver-only-builds.md.
64 * When a PSA driver for ECDH is present, it is now possible to disable
65 MBEDTLS_ECDH_C in the build in order to save code size. For TLS 1.2
66 key exchanges based on ECDH(E) to work, this requires
67 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO. Restartable/interruptible ECDHE operations in
68 TLS 1.2 (ECDHE-ECDSA key exchange) are not supported in those builds yet,
69 as PSA does not have an API for restartable ECDH yet.
70 * When all of ECDH, ECDSA and EC J-PAKE are either disabled or provided by
71 a driver, it is possible to disable MBEDTLS_ECP_C (and MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C
72 if not required by another module) and still get support for ECC keys and
73 algorithms in PSA, with some limitations. See docs/driver-only-builds.txt
74 for details.
75 * Add parsing of directoryName subtype for subjectAltName extension in
76 x509 certificates.
77 * Add support for server-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
78 TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled, the TLS server now selects TLS 1.2 or
79 TLS 1.3 depending on the capabilities and preferences of TLS clients.
80 Fixes #6867.
81 * X.509 hostname verification now supports IPAddress Subject Alternate Names.
82 * Add support for reading and writing X25519 and X448
83 public and private keys in RFC 8410 format using the existing PK APIs.
84 * When parsing X.509 certificates, support the extensions
85 SignatureKeyIdentifier and AuthorityKeyIdentifier.
86 * Don't include the PSA dispatch functions for PAKEs (psa_pake_setup() etc)
87 if no PAKE algorithms are requested
88 * Add support for the FFDH algorithm and DH key types in PSA, with
89 parameters from RFC 7919. This includes a built-in implementation based
90 on MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C, and a driver dispatch layer enabling alternative
91 implementations of FFDH through the driver entry points.
92 * It is now possible to generate certificates with SubjectAltNames.
93 Currently supported subtypes: DnsName, UniformResourceIdentifier,
94 IP address, OtherName, and DirectoryName, as defined in RFC 5280.
95 See mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_subject_alternative_name for
96 more information.
97 * X.509 hostname verification now partially supports URI Subject Alternate
98 Names. Only exact matching, without any normalization procedures
99 described in 7.4 of RFC5280, will result in a positive URI verification.
100 * Add function mbedtls_oid_from_numeric_string() to parse an OID from a
101 string to a DER-encoded mbedtls_asn1_buf.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100102 * Add SHA-3 family hash functions.
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100103 * Add support to restrict AES to 128-bit keys in order to save code size.
104 A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AES_ONLY_128_BIT_KEY_LENGTH, can be
105 used to enable this feature.
106 * AES performance improvements. Uplift varies by platform,
107 toolchain, optimisation flags and mode.
108 Aarch64, gcc -Os and CCM, GCM and XTS benefit the most.
109 On Aarch64, uplift is typically around 20 - 110%.
110 When compiling with gcc -Os on Aarch64, AES-XTS improves
111 by 4.5x.
112 * Add support for PBKDF2-HMAC through the PSA API.
113 * New symbols PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
114 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy (where xxx is either ECC, RSA
115 or DH) were introduced in order to have finer accuracy in defining the
116 PSA capabilities for each key. These capabilities, named yyy above, can be
117 any of: BASIC, IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE.
118 - DERIVE is only available for ECC keys, not for RSA or DH ones.
119 - implementations are free to enable more than what it was strictly
120 requested. For example BASIC internally enables IMPORT and EXPORT
121 (useful for testing purposes), but this might change in the future.
122 * Add support for FFDH key exchange in TLS 1.3.
123 This is automatically enabled as soon as PSA_WANT_ALG_FFDH
124 and the ephemeral or psk-ephemeral key exchange mode are enabled.
125 By default, all groups are offered; the list of groups can be
126 configured using the existing API function mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups().
127 * Improve mbedtls_x509_time performance and reduce memory use.
128 * Reduce syscalls to time() during certificate verification.
129 * Allow MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE and MBEDTLS_USER_CONFIG_FILE to be set by
130 setting the CMake variable of the same name at configuration time.
131 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_cache_get_timeout()) to access
132 `mbedtls_ssl_cache_context.timeout`.
133 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_get_hostname()) to access
134 `mbedtls_ssl_context.hostname`.
135 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_conf_get_endpoint()) to access
136 `mbedtls_ssl_config.endpoint`.
137 * Support for "opaque" (PSA-held) ECC keys in the PK module has been
138 extended: it is now possible to use mbedtls_pk_write_key_der(),
139 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(), and
140 mbedtls_pk_verify() with opaque ECC keys (provided the PSA attributes
141 allow it).
142 * The documentation of mbedtls_ecp_group now describes the optimized
143 representation of A for some curves. Fixes #8045.
144 * Add a possibility to generate CSR's with RCF822 and directoryName subtype
145 of subjectAltName extension in x509 certificates.
146 * Add support for PBKDF2-CMAC through the PSA API.
147 * New configuration option MBEDTLS_AES_USE_HARDWARE_ONLY introduced. When
148 using CPU-accelerated AES (e.g., Arm Crypto Extensions), this option
149 disables the plain C implementation and the run-time detection for the
150 CPU feature, which reduces code size and avoids the vulnerability of the
151 plain C implementation.
152 * Accept arbitrary AttributeType and AttributeValue in certificate
153 Distinguished Names using RFC 4514 syntax.
154 * Applications using ECC over secp256r1 through the PSA API can use a
155 new implementation with a much smaller footprint, but some minor
156 usage restrictions. See the documentation of the new configuration
157 option MBEDTLS_PSA_P256M_DRIVER_ENABLED for details.
158
159Security
160 * Fix a case where potentially sensitive information held in memory would not
161 be completely zeroized during TLS 1.2 handshake, in both server and client
162 configurations.
163 * In configurations with ARIA or Camellia but not AES, the value of
164 MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX was 8, rather than 16 as the name might
165 suggest. This did not affect any library code, because this macro was
166 only used in relation with CMAC which does not support these ciphers.
167 This may affect application code that uses this macro.
168 * Developers using mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() should
169 review the size of the output buffer passed to this function, and note
170 that the output after decryption may include CBC padding. Consider moving
171 to the new functions mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext()
172 which checks for overflow of the output buffer and reports the actual
173 length of the output.
174 * Improve padding calculations in CBC decryption, NIST key unwrapping and
175 RSA OAEP decryption. With the previous implementation, some compilers
176 (notably recent versions of Clang and IAR) could produce non-constant
177 time code, which could allow a padding oracle attack if the attacker
178 has access to precise timing measurements.
179 * Updates to constant-time C code so that compilers are less likely to use
180 conditional instructions, which can have an observable difference in
181 timing. (Clang has been seen to do this.) Also introduce assembly
182 implementations for 32- and 64-bit Arm and for x86 and x86-64, which are
183 guaranteed not to use conditional instructions.
184 * Fix definition of MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE, which was too
185 small when MBEDTLS_SHA384_C was defined and MBEDTLS_SHA512_C was
186 undefined. Mbed TLS itself was unaffected by this, but user code
187 which used MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE could be affected. The only
188 release containing this bug was Mbed TLS 3.4.0.
189 * Fix a buffer overread when parsing short TLS application data records in
190 null-cipher cipher suites. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
191 * Fix a remotely exploitable heap buffer overflow in TLS handshake parsing.
192 In TLS 1.3, all configurations are affected except PSK-only ones, and
193 both clients and servers are affected.
194 In TLS 1.2, the affected configurations are those with
195 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and ECDH enabled but DHM and RSA disabled,
196 and only servers are affected, not clients.
197 Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
198
199Bugfix
200 * Fix proper sizing for PSA_EXPORT_[KEY_PAIR/PUBLIC_KEY]_MAX_SIZE and
201 PSA_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE buffers when at least one accelerated EC is bigger
202 than all built-in ones and RSA is disabled.
203 Resolves #6622.
204 * Add missing md.h includes to some of the external programs from
205 the programs directory. Without this, even though the configuration
206 was sufficient for a particular program to work, it would only print
207 a message that one of the required defines is missing.
208 * Fix declaration of mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_restartable() function
209 in the ecdsa.h header file. There was a build warning when the
210 configuration macro MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT was defined.
211 Resolves #7407.
212 * Fix an error when MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT is defined but not
213 MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT, causing ecdsa verify to fail. Fixes #7498.
214 * Fix missing PSA initialization in sample programs when
215 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
216 * Fix the J-PAKE driver interface for user and peer to accept any values
217 (previously accepted values were limited to "client" or "server").
218 * Fix clang and armclang compilation error when targeting certain Arm
219 M-class CPUs (Cortex-M0, Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M1, Cortex-M23,
220 SecurCore SC000). Fixes #1077.
221 * Fix "unterminated '#pragma clang attribute push'" in sha256/sha512.c when
222 built with MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT but don't have a
223 way to detect the crypto extensions required. A warning is still issued.
224 * Fixed an issue that caused compile errors when using CMake and the IAR
225 toolchain.
226 * Fix very high stack usage in SSL debug code. Reported by Maximilian
227 Gerhardt in #7804.
228 * Fix a compilation failure in the constant_time module when
229 building for arm64_32 (e.g., for watchos). Reported by Paulo
230 Coutinho in #7787.
231 * Fix crypt_and_hash decryption fail when used with a stream cipher
232 mode of operation due to the input not being multiple of block size.
233 Resolves #7417.
234 * Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_string_to_names() would return success
235 when given a invalid name string if it did not contain '=' or ','.
236 * Fix compilation warnings in aes.c, which prevented the
237 example TF-M configuration in configs/ from building cleanly:
238 tfm_mbedcrypto_config_profile_medium.h with
239 crypto_config_profile_medium.h.
240 * In TLS 1.3, fix handshake failure when a client in its ClientHello
241 proposes an handshake based on PSK only key exchange mode or at least
242 one of the key exchange modes using ephemeral keys to a server that
243 supports only the PSK key exchange mode.
244 * Fix CCM* with no tag being not supported in a build with CCM as the only
245 symmetric encryption algorithm and the PSA configuration enabled.
246 * Fix the build with MBEDTLS_PSA_INJECT_ENTROPY. Fixes #7516.
247 * Fix a compilation error on some platforms when including mbedtls/ssl.h
248 with all TLS support disabled. Fixes #6628.
249 * Fix x509 certificate generation to conform to RFC 5480 / RFC 5758 when
250 using ECC key. The certificate was rejected by some crypto frameworks.
251 Fixes #2924.
252 * Fix a potential corruption of the passed-in IV when mbedtls_aes_crypt_cbc()
253 is called with zero length and padlock is not enabled.
254 * Fix compile failure due to empty enum in cipher_wrap.c, when building
255 with a very minimal configuration. Fixes #7625.
256 * Fix some cases where mbedtls_mpi_mod_exp, RSA key construction or ECDSA
257 signature can silently return an incorrect result in low memory conditions.
258 * Don't try to include MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE when
259 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is disabled.
260 * Fix IAR compiler warnings.
261 * Fix an issue when parsing an otherName subject alternative name into a
262 mbedtls_x509_san_other_name struct. The type-id of the otherName was not
263 copied to the struct. This meant that the struct had incomplete
264 information about the otherName SAN and contained uninitialized memory.
265 * Fix the detection of HardwareModuleName otherName SANs. These were being
266 detected by comparing the wrong field and the check was erroneously
267 inverted.
268 * Fix a build error in some configurations with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG
269 enabled, where some low-level modules required by requested PSA crypto
270 features were not getting automatically enabled. Fixes #7420.
271 * Fix undefined symbols in some builds using TLS 1.3 with a custom
272 configuration file.
273 * Fix log level for the got supported group message. Fixes #6765
274 * Functions in the ssl_cache module now return a negative MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx
275 error code on failure. Before, they returned 1 to indicate failure in
276 some cases involving a missing entry or a full cache.
277 * mbedtls_pk_parse_key() now rejects trailing garbage in encrypted keys.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100278 * Fix the build with CMake when Everest or P256-m is enabled through
279 a user configuration file or the compiler command line. Fixes #8165.
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100280
281Changes
282 * Enable Arm / Thumb bignum assembly for most Arm platforms when
283 compiling with gcc, clang or armclang and -O0.
284 * Enforce minimum RSA key size when generating a key
285 to avoid accidental misuse.
286 * Use heap memory to allocate DER encoded RSA private key.
287 This reduces stack usage significantly for RSA signature
288 operations when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is defined.
289 * Update Windows code to use BCryptGenRandom and wcslen, and
290 ensure that conversions between size_t, ULONG, and int are
291 always done safely. Original contribution by Kevin Kane #635, #730
292 followed by Simon Butcher #1453.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100293 * Users integrating their own PSA drivers should be aware that
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100294 the file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c has been renamed
295 to psa_crypto_driver_wrappers_no_static.c.
296 * When using CBC with the cipher module, the requirement to call
297 mbedtls_cipher_set_padding_mode() is now enforced. Previously, omitting
298 this call accidentally applied a default padding mode chosen at compile
299 time.

Paul Elliottdbe435c2023-03-23 10:43:15 +0000309= Mbed TLS 3.4.0 branch released 2023-03-28
310
311Default behavior changes
312 * The default priority order of TLS 1.3 cipher suites has been modified to
313 follow the same rules as the TLS 1.2 cipher suites (see
314 ssl_ciphersuites.c). The preferred cipher suite is now
315 TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256.
316
317New deprecations
318 * mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial() is now being deprecated in favor of
319 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial_raw(). The goal here is to remove any
320 direct dependency of X509 on BIGNUM_C.
321 * PSA to mbedtls error translation is now unified in psa_util.h,
322 deprecating mbedtls_md_error_from_psa. Each file that performs error
323 translation should define its own version of PSA_TO_MBEDTLS_ERR,
324 optionally providing file-specific error pairs. Please see psa_util.h for
325 more details.
326
327Features
328 * Added partial support for parsing the PKCS #7 Cryptographic Message
329 Syntax, as defined in RFC 2315. Currently, support is limited to the
330 following:
331 - Only the signed-data content type, version 1 is supported.
332 - Only DER encoding is supported.
333 - Only a single digest algorithm per message is supported.
334 - Certificates must be in X.509 format. A message must have either 0
335 or 1 certificates.
336 - There is no support for certificate revocation lists.
337 - The authenticated and unauthenticated attribute fields of SignerInfo
338 must be empty.
339 Many thanks to Daniel Axtens, Nayna Jain, and Nick Child from IBM for
340 contributing this feature, and to Demi-Marie Obenour for contributing
341 various improvements, tests and bug fixes.
342 * General performance improvements by accessing multiple bytes at a time.
343 Fixes #1666.
344 * Improvements to use of unaligned and byte-swapped memory, reducing code
345 size and improving performance (depending on compiler and target
346 architecture).
347 * Add support for reading points in compressed format
348 (MBEDTLS_ECP_PF_COMPRESSED) with mbedtls_ecp_point_read_binary()
349 (and callers) for Short Weierstrass curves with prime p where p = 3 mod 4
350 (all mbedtls MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP* and MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_BP* curves
351 except MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP224R1 and MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP224K1)
352 * SHA224_C/SHA384_C are now independent from SHA384_C/SHA512_C respectively.
353 This helps in saving code size when some of the above hashes are not
354 required.
355 * Add parsing of V3 extensions (key usage, Netscape cert-type,
356 Subject Alternative Names) in x509 Certificate Sign Requests.
357 * Use HOSTCC (if it is set) when compiling C code during generation of the
358 configuration-independent files. This allows them to be generated when
359 CC is set for cross compilation.
360 * Add parsing of uniformResourceIdentifier subtype for subjectAltName
361 extension in x509 certificates.
362 * Add an interruptible version of sign and verify hash to the PSA interface,
363 backed by internal library support for ECDSA signing and verification.
364 * Add parsing of rfc822Name subtype for subjectAltName
365 extension in x509 certificates.
366 * The configuration macros MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_PLATFORM_FILE and
367 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STRUCT_FILE specify alternative locations for
368 the headers "psa/crypto_platform.h" and "psa/crypto_struct.h".
369 * When a PSA driver for ECDSA is present, it is now possible to disable
370 MBEDTLS_ECDSA_C in the build in order to save code size. For PK, X.509
371 and TLS to fully work, this requires MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO to be enabled.
372 Restartable/interruptible ECDSA operations in PK, X.509 and TLS are not
373 supported in those builds yet, as driver support for interruptible ECDSA
374 operations is not present yet.
375 * Add a driver dispatch layer for EC J-PAKE, enabling alternative
376 implementations of EC J-PAKE through the driver entry points.
377 * Add new API mbedtls_ssl_cache_remove for cache entry removal by
378 its session id.
379 * Add support to include the SubjectAltName extension to a CSR.
380 * Add support for AES with the Armv8-A Cryptographic Extension on
381 64-bit Arm. A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AESCE_C, can
382 be used to enable this feature. Run-time detection is supported
383 under Linux only.
384 * When a PSA driver for EC J-PAKE is present, it is now possible to disable
385 MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_C in the build in order to save code size. For the
386 corresponding TLS 1.2 key exchange to work, MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO needs
387 to be enabled.
388 * Add functions mbedtls_rsa_get_padding_mode() and mbedtls_rsa_get_md_alg()
389 to read non-public fields for padding mode and hash id from
390 an mbedtls_rsa_context, as requested in #6917.
391 * AES-NI is now supported with Visual Studio.
392 * AES-NI is now supported in 32-bit builds, or when MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM
393 is disabled, when compiling with GCC or Clang or a compatible compiler
394 for a target CPU that supports the requisite instructions (for example
395 gcc -m32 -msse2 -maes -mpclmul). (Generic x86 builds with GCC-like
396 compilers still require MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM and a 64-bit target.)
397 * It is now possible to use a PSA-held (opaque) password with the TLS 1.2
398 ECJPAKE key exchange, using the new API function
399 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ecjpake_password_opaque().
400
401Security
402 * Use platform-provided secure zeroization function where possible, such as
403 explicit_bzero().
404 * Zeroize SSL cache entries when they are freed.
405 * Fix a potential heap buffer overread in TLS 1.3 client-side when
406 MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C is enabled. This may result in an application crash.
407 * Add support for AES with the Armv8-A Cryptographic Extension on 64-bit
408 Arm, so that these systems are no longer vulnerable to timing side-channel
409 attacks. This is configured by MBEDTLS_AESCE_C, which is on by default.
410 Reported by Demi Marie Obenour.
411 * MBEDTLS_AESNI_C, which is enabled by default, was silently ignored on
412 builds that couldn't compile the GCC-style assembly implementation
413 (most notably builds with Visual Studio), leaving them vulnerable to
414 timing side-channel attacks. There is now an intrinsics-based AES-NI
415 implementation as a fallback for when the assembly one cannot be used.
416
417Bugfix
418 * Fix possible integer overflow in mbedtls_timing_hardclock(), which
419 could cause a crash in programs/test/benchmark.
420 * Fix IAR compiler warnings. Fixes #6924.
421 * Fix a bug in the build where directory names containing spaces were
422 causing generate_errors.pl to error out resulting in a build failure.
423 Fixes issue #6879.
424 * In TLS 1.3, when using a ticket for session resumption, tweak its age
425 calculation on the client side. It prevents a server with more accurate
426 ticket timestamps (typically timestamps in milliseconds) compared to the
427 Mbed TLS ticket timestamps (in seconds) to compute a ticket age smaller
428 than the age computed and transmitted by the client and thus potentially
429 reject the ticket. Fix #6623.
430 * Fix compile error where MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_WRITE_C are
431 defined, but MBEDTLS_PK_RSA_ALT_SUPPORT is not defined. Fixes #3174.
432 * List PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG in psa/crypto_config.h so that it can
433 be toggled with config.py.
434 * The key derivation algorithm PSA_ALG_TLS12_ECJPAKE_TO_PMS cannot be
435 used on a shared secret from a key agreement since its input must be
436 an ECC public key. Reject this properly.
437 * mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial() now explicitly rejects serial numbers
438 whose binary representation is longer than 20 bytes. This was already
439 forbidden by the standard (RFC5280 - section 4.1.2.2) and now it's being
440 enforced also at code level.
441 * Fix potential undefined behavior in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs(). Reported by
442 Pascal Cuoq using TrustInSoft Analyzer in #6701; observed independently by
443 Aaron Ucko under Valgrind.
444 * Fix behavior of certain sample programs which could, when run with no
445 arguments, access uninitialized memory in some cases. Fixes #6700 (which
446 was found by TrustInSoft Analyzer during REDOCS'22) and #1120.
447 * Fix parsing of X.509 SubjectAlternativeName extension. Previously,
448 malformed alternative name components were not caught during initial
449 certificate parsing, but only on subsequent calls to
450 mbedtls_x509_parse_subject_alt_name(). Fixes #2838.
451 * Make the fields of mbedtls_pk_rsassa_pss_options public. This makes it
452 possible to verify RSA PSS signatures with the pk module, which was
453 inadvertently broken since Mbed TLS 3.0.
454 * Fix bug in conversion from OID to string in
455 mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string(). OIDs such as 2.40.0.25 are now printed
456 correctly.
457 * Reject OIDs with overlong-encoded subidentifiers when converting
458 them to a string.
459 * Reject OIDs with subidentifier values exceeding UINT_MAX. Such
460 subidentifiers can be valid, but Mbed TLS cannot currently handle them.
461 * Reject OIDs that have unterminated subidentifiers, or (equivalently)
462 have the most-significant bit set in their last byte.
463 * Silence warnings from clang -Wdocumentation about empty \retval
464 descriptions, which started appearing with Clang 15. Fixes #6960.
465 * Fix the handling of renegotiation attempts in TLS 1.3. They are now
466 systematically rejected.
467 * Fix an unused-variable warning in TLS 1.3-only builds if
468 MBEDTLS_SSL_RENEGOTIATION was enabled. Fixes #6200.
469 * Fix undefined behavior in mbedtls_ssl_read() and mbedtls_ssl_write() if
470 len argument is 0 and buffer is NULL.
471 * Allow setting user and peer identifiers for EC J-PAKE operation
472 instead of role in PAKE PSA Crypto API as described in the specification.
473 This is a partial fix that allows only "client" and "server" identifiers.
474 * Fix a compilation error when PSA Crypto is built with support for
475 TLS12_PRF but not TLS12_PSK_TO_MS. Reported by joerchan in #7125.
476 * In the TLS 1.3 server, select the preferred client cipher suite, not the
477 least preferred. The selection error was introduced in Mbed TLS 3.3.0.
478 * Fix TLS 1.3 session resumption when the established pre-shared key is
479 384 bits long. That is the length of pre-shared keys created under a
480 session where the cipher suite is TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384.
481 * Fix an issue when compiling with MBEDTLS_SHA512_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT
482 enabled, which required specifying compiler flags enabling SHA3 Crypto
483 Extensions, where some compilers would emit EOR3 instructions in other
484 modules, which would then fail if run on a CPU without the SHA3
485 extensions. Fixes #5758.
486
487Changes
488 * Install the .cmake files into CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR/cmake/MbedTLS,
489 typically /usr/lib/cmake/MbedTLS.
490 * Mixed-endian systems are explicitly not supported any more.
491 * When MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC are both
492 defined, mbedtls_pk_sign() now use deterministic ECDSA for ECDSA
493 signatures. This aligns the behaviour with MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO to
494 the behaviour without it, where deterministic ECDSA was already used.
495 * Visual Studio: Rename the directory containing Visual Studio files from
496 visualc/VS2010 to visualc/VS2013 as we do not support building with versions
497 older than 2013. Update the solution file to specify VS2013 as a minimum.
498 * programs/x509/cert_write:
499 - now it accepts the serial number in 2 different formats: decimal and
500 hex. They cannot be used simultaneously
501 - "serial" is used for the decimal format and it's limted in size to
502 unsigned long long int
503 - "serial_hex" is used for the hex format; max length here is
504 MBEDTLS_X509_RFC5280_MAX_SERIAL_LEN*2
505 * The C code follows a new coding style. This is transparent for users but
506 affects contributors and maintainers of local patches. For more
507 information, see
508 https://mbed-tls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kb/how-to/rewrite-branch-for-coding-style/
509 * Changed the default MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE from 6 to 2.
510 As tested in issue 6790, the correlation between this define and
511 RSA decryption performance has changed lately due to security fixes.
512 To fix the performance degradation when using default values the
513 window was reduced from 6 to 2, a value that gives the best or close
514 to best results when tested on Cortex-M4 and Intel i7.
515 * When enabling MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_* or
516 MBEDTLS_SHA512_USE_A64_CRYPTO_*, it is no longer necessary to specify
517 compiler target flags on the command line; the library now sets target
518 options within the appropriate modules.

521
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +0000522Default behavior changes
523 * Previously the macro MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID implemented version 05
524 of the IETF draft, and was marked experimental and disabled by default.
525 It is now no longer experimental, and implements the final version from
526 RFC 9146, which is not interoperable with the draft-05 version.
527 If you need to communicate with peers that use earlier versions of
528 Mbed TLS, then you need to define MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID_COMPAT
529 to 1, but then you won't be able to communicate with peers that use the
530 standard (non-draft) version.
531 If you need to interoperate with both classes of peers with the
532 same build of Mbed TLS, please let us know about your situation on the
533 mailing list or GitHub.
534
535Requirement changes
536 * When building with PSA drivers using generate_driver_wrappers.py, or
537 when building the library from the development branch rather than
538 from a release, the Python module jsonschema is now necessary, in
539 addition to jinja2. The official list of required Python modules is
540 maintained in scripts/basic.requirements.txt and may change again
541 in the future.
542
543New deprecations
544 * Deprecate mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data().
545 Use mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list()
546 or mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list_shallow().
547
548Features
549 * Support rsa_pss_rsae_* signature algorithms in TLS 1.2.
550 * make: enable building unversioned shared library, with e.g.:
551 "SHARED=1 SOEXT_TLS=so SOEXT_X509=so SOEXT_CRYPTO=so make lib"
552 resulting in library names like "libmbedtls.so" rather than
553 "libmbedcrypto.so.11".
554 * Expose the EC J-PAKE functionality through the Draft PSA PAKE Crypto API.
555 Only the ECC primitive with secp256r1 curve and SHA-256 hash algorithm
556 are supported in this implementation.
557 * Some modules can now use PSA drivers for hashes, including with no
558 built-in implementation present, but only in some configurations.
559 - RSA OAEP and PSS (PKCS#1 v2.1), PKCS5, PKCS12 and EC J-PAKE now use
560 hashes from PSA when (and only when) MBEDTLS_MD_C is disabled.
561 - PEM parsing of encrypted files now uses MD-5 from PSA when (and only
562 when) MBEDTLS_MD5_C is disabled.
563 See the documentation of the corresponding macros in mbedtls_config.h for
564 details.
565 Note that some modules are not able to use hashes from PSA yet, including
566 the entropy module. As a consequence, for now the only way to build with
567 all hashes only provided by drivers (no built-in hash) is to use
568 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG.
569 * When MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled, X.509, TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 now
570 properly negotiate/accept hashes based on their availability in PSA.
571 As a consequence, they now work in configurations where the built-in
572 implementations of (some) hashes are excluded and those hashes are only
573 provided by PSA drivers. (See previous entry for limitation on RSA-PSS
574 though: that module only use hashes from PSA when MBEDTLS_MD_C is off).
575 * Add support for opaque keys as the private keys associated to certificates
576 for authentication in TLS 1.3.
577 * Add the LMS post-quantum-safe stateful-hash asymmetric signature scheme.
578 Signature verification is production-ready, but generation is for testing
579 purposes only. This currently only supports one parameter set
580 (LMS_SHA256_M32_H10), meaning that each private key can be used to sign
581 1024 messages. As such, it is not intended for use in TLS, but instead
582 for verification of assets transmitted over an insecure channel,
583 particularly firmware images.
584 * Add the LM-OTS post-quantum-safe one-time signature scheme, which is
585 required for LMS. This can be used independently, but each key can only
586 be used to sign one message so is impractical for most circumstances.
587 * Mbed TLS now supports TLS 1.3 key establishment via pre-shared keys.
588 The pre-shared keys can be provisioned externally or via the ticket
589 mechanism (session resumption).
590 The ticket mechanism is supported when the configuration option
591 MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS is enabled.
592 New options MBEDTLS_SSL_TLS1_3_KEY_EXCHANGE_MODE_xxx_ENABLED
593 control the support for the three possible TLS 1.3 key exchange modes.
594 * cert_write: support for setting extended key usage attributes. A
595 corresponding new public API call has been added in the library,
596 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_ext_key_usage().
597 * cert_write: support for writing certificate files in either PEM
598 or DER format.
599 * The PSA driver wrapper generator generate_driver_wrappers.py now
600 supports a subset of the driver description language, including
601 the following entry points: import_key, export_key, export_public_key,
602 get_builtin_key, copy_key.
603 * The new functions mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list() and
604 mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list_shallow() simplify the management
605 of memory in named data lists in X.509 structures.
606 * The TLS 1.2 EC J-PAKE key exchange can now use the PSA Crypto API.
607 Additional PSA key slots will be allocated in the process of such key
608 exchange for builds that enable MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECJPAKE_ENABLED and
609 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO.
610 * Add support for DTLS Connection ID as defined by RFC 9146, controlled by
611 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (enabled by default) and configured with
612 mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().
613 * Add a driver dispatch layer for raw key agreement, enabling alternative
614 implementations of raw key agreement through the key_agreement driver
615 entry point. This entry point is specified in the proposed PSA driver
616 interface, but had not yet been implemented.
Dave Rodgman552e1072022-12-14 17:01:51 +0000617 * Add an ad-hoc key derivation function handling EC J-PAKE to PMS
618 calculation that can be used to derive the session secret in TLS 1.2,
619 as described in draft-cragie-tls-ecjpake-01. This can be achieved by
620 using PSA_ALG_TLS12_ECJPAKE_TO_PMS as the key derivation algorithm.
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +0000621
622Security
623 * Fix potential heap buffer overread and overwrite in DTLS if
624 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID is enabled and
625 MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_IN_LEN_MAX > 2 * MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_OUT_LEN_MAX.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +0000626 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough information
627 about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking
628 a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the
629 victim performing a single private-key operation if the window size used
630 for the exponentiation was 3 or smaller. Found and reported by Zili KOU,
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +0000631 Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG. See "Cache Side-channel Attacks
632 and Defenses of the Sliding Window Algorithm in TEEs" - Design, Automation
633 and Test in Europe 2023.
634
635Bugfix
636 * Refactor mbedtls_aes_context to support shallow-copying. Fixes #2147.
637 * Fix an issue with in-tree CMake builds in releases with GEN_FILES
638 turned off: if a shipped file was missing from the working directory,
639 it could be turned into a symbolic link to itself.
640 * Fix a long-standing build failure when building x86 PIC code with old
641 gcc (4.x). The code will be slower, but will compile. We do however
642 recommend upgrading to a more recent compiler instead. Fixes #1910.
643 * Fix support for little-endian Microblaze when MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM is defined.
644 Contributed by Kazuyuki Kimura to fix #2020.
645 * Use double quotes to include private header file psa_crypto_cipher.h.
646 Fixes 'file not found with <angled> include' error
647 when building with Xcode.
648 * Fix handling of broken symlinks when loading certificates using
649 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_path(). Instead of returning an error as soon as a
650 broken link is encountered, skip the broken link and continue parsing
651 other certificate files. Contributed by Eduardo Silva in #2602.
652 * Fix an interoperability failure between an Mbed TLS client with both
653 TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 support, and a TLS 1.2 server that supports
654 rsa_pss_rsae_* signature algorithms. This failed because Mbed TLS
655 advertised support for PSS in both TLS 1.2 and 1.3, but only
656 actually supported PSS in TLS 1.3.
657 * Fix a compilation error when using CMake with an IAR toolchain.
658 Fixes #5964.
659 * Fix a build error due to a missing prototype warning when
660 MBEDTLS_DEPRECATED_REMOVED is enabled.
661 * Fix mbedtls_ctr_drbg_free() on an initialized but unseeded context. When
662 MBEDTLS_AES_ALT is enabled, it could call mbedtls_aes_free() on an
663 uninitialized context.
664 * Fix a build issue on Windows using CMake where the source and build
665 directories could not be on different drives. Fixes #5751.
666 * Fix bugs and missing dependencies when building and testing
667 configurations with only one encryption type enabled in TLS 1.2.
668 * Provide the missing definition of mbedtls_setbuf() in some configurations
669 with MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C disabled. Fixes #6118, #6196.
670 * Fix compilation errors when trying to build with
671 PSA drivers for AEAD (GCM, CCM, Chacha20-Poly1305).
672 * Fix memory leak in ssl_parse_certificate_request() caused by
673 mbedtls_x509_get_name() not freeing allocated objects in case of error.
674 Change mbedtls_x509_get_name() to clean up allocated objects on error.
675 * Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C but not
676 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO or MBEDTLS_PK_WRITE_C. Fixes #6408.
677 * Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C but not
678 MBEDTLS_PK_PARSE_C. Fixes #6409.
679 * Fix ECDSA verification, where it was not always validating the
680 public key. This bug meant that it was possible to verify a
681 signature with an invalid public key, in some cases. Reported by
682 Guido Vranken using Cryptofuzz in #4420.
683 * Fix a possible null pointer dereference if a memory allocation fails
684 in TLS PRF code. Reported by Michael Madsen in #6516.
685 * Fix TLS 1.3 session resumption. Fixes #6488.
686 * Add a configuration check to exclude optional client authentication
687 in TLS 1.3 (where it is forbidden).
688 * Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_crt_info() would produce non-printable
689 bytes when parsing certificates containing a binary RFC 4108
690 HardwareModuleName as a Subject Alternative Name extension. Hardware
691 serial numbers are now rendered in hex format. Fixes #6262.
692 * Fix bug in error reporting in dh_genprime.c where upon failure,
693 the error code returned by mbedtls_mpi_write_file() is overwritten
694 and therefore not printed.
695 * In the bignum module, operations of the form (-A) - (+A) or (-A) - (-A)
696 with A > 0 created an unintended representation of the value 0 which was
697 not processed correctly by some bignum operations. Fix this. This had no
698 consequence on cryptography code, but might affect applications that call
699 bignum directly and use negative numbers.
700 * Fix a bug whereby the list of signature algorithms sent as part of
701 the TLS 1.2 server certificate request would get corrupted, meaning the
702 first algorithm would not get sent and an entry consisting of two random
703 bytes would be sent instead. Found by Serban Bejan and Dudek Sebastian.
704 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) of
705 mbedtls_mpi_add_mpi(), mbedtls_mpi_add_abs() and mbedtls_mpi_add_int()
706 when both operands are 0 and the left operand is represented with 0 limbs.
707 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) when some bignum
708 functions receive the most negative value of mbedtls_mpi_sint. Credit
709 to OSS-Fuzz. Fixes #6597.
710 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) in PSA ECB
711 encryption and decryption.
712 * Move some SSL-specific code out of libmbedcrypto where it had been placed
713 accidentally.
714 * Fix a build error when compiling the bignum module for some Arm platforms.
715 Fixes #6089, #6124, #6217.
716
717Changes
718 * Add the ability to query PSA_WANT_xxx macros to query_compile_time_config.
719 * Calling AEAD tag-specific functions for non-AEAD algorithms (which
720 should not be done - they are documented for use only by AES-GCM and
721 ChaCha20+Poly1305) now returns MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE
722 instead of success (0).

731Default behavior changes
732 * mbedtls_cipher_set_iv will now fail with ChaCha20 and ChaCha20+Poly1305
733 for IV lengths other than 12. The library was silently overwriting this
734 length with 12, but did not inform the caller about it. Fixes #4301.
735
736Requirement changes
737 * The library will no longer compile out of the box on a platform without
738 setbuf(). If your platform does not have setbuf(), you can configure an
739 alternative function by enabling MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETBUF_ALT or
740 MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETBUF_MACRO.
741
742New deprecations
743 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version() and
744 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version() in favor of
745 mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_tls_version() and
746 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_tls_version().
747 * Deprecate mbedtls_cipher_setup_psa(). Use psa_aead_xxx() or
748 psa_cipher_xxx() directly instead.
749 * Secure element drivers enabled by MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C are deprecated.
750 This was intended as an experimental feature, but had not been explicitly
751 documented as such. Use opaque drivers with the interface enabled by
752 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_DRIVERS instead.
753 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes() in favor of the more generic
754 mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_algs(). Signature algorithms for the TLS 1.2 and
755 TLS 1.3 handshake should now be configured with
756 mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_algs().
757
758Features
759 * Add accessor to obtain ciphersuite id from ssl context.
760 * Add accessors to get members from ciphersuite info.
761 * Add mbedtls_ssl_ticket_rotate() for external ticket rotation.
762 * Add accessor to get the raw buffer pointer from a PEM context.
763 * The structures mbedtls_ssl_config and mbedtls_ssl_context now store
764 a piece of user data which is reserved for the application. The user
765 data can be either a pointer or an integer.
766 * Add an accessor function to get the configuration associated with
767 an SSL context.
768 * Add a function to access the protocol version from an SSL context in a
769 form that's easy to compare. Fixes #5407.
770 * Add function mbedtls_md_info_from_ctx() to recall the message digest
771 information that was used to set up a message digest context.
772 * Add ALPN support in TLS 1.3 clients.
773 * Add server certificate selection callback near end of Client Hello.
774 Register callback with mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb().
775 * Provide mechanism to reset handshake cert list by calling
776 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_own_cert() with NULL value for own_cert param.
777 * Add accessor mbedtls_ssl_get_hs_sni() to retrieve SNI from within
778 cert callback (mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb()) during handshake.
779 * The X.509 module now uses PSA hash acceleration if present.
780 * Add support for psa crypto key derivation for elliptic curve
781 keys. Fixes #3260.
782 * Add function mbedtls_timing_get_final_delay() to access the private
783 final delay field in an mbedtls_timing_delay_context, as requested in
784 #5183.
785 * Add mbedtls_pk_sign_ext() which allows generating RSA-PSS signatures when
786 PSA Crypto is enabled.
787 * Add function mbedtls_ecp_export() to export ECP key pair parameters.
788 Fixes #4838.
789 * Add function mbedtls_ssl_is_handshake_over() to enable querying if the SSL
790 Handshake has completed or not, and thus whether to continue calling
791 mbedtls_ssl_handshake_step(), requested in #4383.
792 * Add the function mbedtls_ssl_get_own_cid() to access our own connection id
793 within mbedtls_ssl_context, as requested in #5184.
794 * Introduce mbedtls_ssl_hs_cb_t typedef for use with
795 mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb() and perhaps future callbacks
796 during TLS handshake.
797 * Add functions mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_tls_version() and
798 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_tls_version() that use a single value to specify
799 the protocol version.
800 * Extend the existing PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS() algorithm to support
801 mixed-PSK. Add an optional input PSA_KEY_DERIVATION_INPUT_OTHER_SECRET
802 holding the other secret.
803 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is enabled, you may list the PSA crypto
804 feature requirements in the file named by the new macro
805 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG_FILE instead of the default psa/crypto_config.h.
806 Furthermore you may name an additional file to include after the main
807 file with the macro MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE.
808 * Add the function mbedtls_x509_crt_has_ext_type() to access the ext types
809 field within mbedtls_x509_crt context, as requested in #5585.
810 * Add HKDF-Expand and HKDF-Extract as separate algorithms in the PSA API.
811 * Add support for the ARMv8 SHA-2 acceleration instructions when building
812 for Aarch64.
813 * Add support for authentication of TLS 1.3 clients by TLS 1.3 servers.
814 * Add support for server HelloRetryRequest message. The TLS 1.3 client is
815 now capable of negotiating another shared secret if the one sent in its
816 first ClientHello was not suitable to the server.
817 * Add support for client-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
818 TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled in the build of Mbed TLS, the TLS client now
819 negotiates TLS 1.3 or TLS 1.2 with TLS servers.
820 * Enable building of Mbed TLS with TLS 1.3 protocol support but without TLS
821 1.2 protocol support.
822 * Mbed TLS provides an implementation of a TLS 1.3 server (ephemeral key
823 establishment only). See docs/architecture/tls13-support.md for a
824 description of the support. The MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3 and
825 MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_C configuration options control this.
826 * Add accessors to configure DN hints for certificate request:
827 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dn_hints() and mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_dn_hints()
828 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO, which previously
829 affected only a limited subset of crypto operations in TLS, X.509 and PK,
830 now causes most of them to be done using PSA Crypto; see
831 docs/use-psa-crypto.md for the list of exceptions.
832 * The function mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque() now supports RSA key pairs as well.
833 Opaque keys can now be used everywhere a private key is expected in the
834 TLS and X.509 modules.
835 * Opaque pre-shared keys for TLS, provisioned with
836 mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk_opaque() or mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk_opaque(), which
837 previously only worked for "pure" PSK key exchange, now can also be used
838 for the "mixed" PSK key exchanges as well: ECDHE-PSK, DHE-PSK, RSA-PSK.
839 * cmake now detects if it is being built as a sub-project, and in that case
840 disables the target export/installation and package configuration.
841 * Make USE_PSA_CRYPTO compatible with KEY_ID_ENCODES_OWNER. Fixes #5259.
842 * Add example programs cipher_aead_demo.c, md_hmac_demo.c, aead_demo.c
843 and hmac_demo.c, which use PSA and the md/cipher interfaces side
844 by side in order to illustrate how the operation is performed in PSA.
845 Addresses #5208.
846
847Security
848 * Zeroize dynamically-allocated buffers used by the PSA Crypto key storage
849 module before freeing them. These buffers contain secret key material, and
850 could thus potentially leak the key through freed heap.
851 * Fix potential memory leak inside mbedtls_ssl_cache_set() with
852 an invalid session id length.
853 * Add the platform function mbedtls_setbuf() to allow buffering to be
854 disabled on stdio files, to stop secrets loaded from said files being
855 potentially left in memory after file operations. Reported by
856 Glenn Strauss.
857 * Fix a potential heap buffer overread in TLS 1.2 server-side when
858 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled, an opaque key (created with
859 mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque()) is provisioned, and a static ECDH ciphersuite
860 is selected. This may result in an application crash or potentially an
861 information leak.
862 * Fix a buffer overread in DTLS ClientHello parsing in servers with
863 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CLIENT_PORT_REUSE enabled. An unauthenticated client
864 or a man-in-the-middle could cause a DTLS server to read up to 255 bytes
865 after the end of the SSL input buffer. The buffer overread only happens
866 when MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN is less than a threshold that depends on
867 the exact configuration: 258 bytes if using mbedtls_ssl_cookie_check(),
868 and possibly up to 571 bytes with a custom cookie check function.
869 Reported by the Cybeats PSI Team.
870 * Fix a buffer overread in TLS 1.3 Certificate parsing. An unauthenticated
871 client or server could cause an MbedTLS server or client to overread up
872 to 64 kBytes of data and potentially overread the input buffer by that
873 amount minus the size of the input buffer. As overread data undergoes
874 various checks, the likelihood of reaching the boundary of the input
875 buffer is rather small but increases as its size
876 MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN decreases.
877 * Fix check of certificate key usage in TLS 1.3. The usage of the public key
878 provided by a client or server certificate for authentication was not
879 checked properly when validating the certificate. This could cause a
880 client or server to be able to authenticate itself through a certificate
881 to an Mbed TLS TLS 1.3 server or client while it does not own a proper
882 certificate to do so.
883
884Bugfix
885 * Declare or use PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG following the general
886 pattern for PSA_WANT_xxx symbols. Previously you had to specify
887 PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM for PSA_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG.
888 * Fix a memory leak if mbedtls_ssl_config_defaults() is called twice.
889 * Fixed swap of client and server random bytes when exporting them alongside
890 TLS 1.3 handshake and application traffic secret.
891 * Fix several bugs (warnings, compiler and linker errors, test failures)
892 in reduced configurations when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
893 * Fix a bug in (D)TLS curve negotiation: when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO was
894 enabled and an ECDHE-ECDSA or ECDHE-RSA key exchange was used, the
895 client would fail to check that the curve selected by the server for
896 ECDHE was indeed one that was offered. As a result, the client would
897 accept any curve that it supported, even if that curve was not allowed
898 according to its configuration. Fixes #5291.
899 * The TLS 1.3 implementation is now compatible with the
900 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO configuration option.
901 * Fix unit tests that used 0 as the file UID. This failed on some
902 implementations of PSA ITS. Fixes #3838.
903 * Fix mbedtls_ssl_get_version() not reporting TLSv1.3. Fixes #5406.
904 * Fix API violation in mbedtls_md_process() test by adding a call to
905 mbedtls_md_starts(). Fixes #2227.
906 * Fix compile errors when MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME is not defined. Add tests
907 to catch bad uses of time.h.
908 * Fix a race condition in out-of-source builds with CMake when generated data
909 files are already present. Fixes #5374.
910 * Fix the library search path when building a shared library with CMake
911 on Windows.
912 * Fix bug in the alert sending function mbedtls_ssl_send_alert_message()
913 potentially leading to corrupted alert messages being sent in case
914 the function needs to be re-called after initially returning
915 MBEDTLS_SSL_WANT_WRITE. Fixes #1916.
916 * In configurations with MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID enabled but not
917 MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C, DTLS handshakes using CID would crash due to a null
918 pointer dereference. Fix this. Fixes #3998.
919 The fix was released, but not announced, in Mbed TLS 3.1.0.
920 * Fix incorrect documentation of mbedtls_x509_crt_profile. The previous
921 documentation stated that the `allowed_pks` field applies to signatures
922 only, but in fact it does apply to the public key type of the end entity
923 certificate, too. Fixes #1992.
924 * Fix undefined behavior in mbedtls_asn1_find_named_data(), where val is
925 not NULL and val_len is zero.
926 * Fix compilation error with mingw32. Fixed by Cameron Cawley in #4211.
927 * Fix compilation error when using C++ Builder on Windows. Reported by
928 Miroslav Mastny in #4015.
929 * psa_raw_key_agreement() now returns PSA_ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL when
930 applicable. Fixes #5735.
931 * Fix a bug in the x25519 example program where the removal of
932 MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT caused the program not to run. Fixes #4901 and
933 #3191.
934 * Fix a TLS 1.3 handshake failure when the peer Finished message has not
935 been received yet when we first try to fetch it.
936 * Encode X.509 dates before 1/1/2000 as UTCTime rather than
937 GeneralizedTime. Fixes #5465.
938 * Add mbedtls_x509_dn_get_next function to return the next relative DN in
939 an X509 name, to allow walking the name list. Fixes #5431.
940 * Fix order value of curve x448.
941 * Fix string representation of DNs when outputting values containing commas
942 and other special characters, conforming to RFC 1779. Fixes #769.
943 * Silence a warning from GCC 12 in the selftest program. Fixes #5974.
944 * Fix check_config.h to check that we have MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE
945 when MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3 is specified, and make this and other
946 dependencies explicit in the documentation. Fixes #5610.
947 * Fix mbedtls_asn1_write_mpi() writing an incorrect encoding of 0.
948 * Fix a TLS 1.3 handshake failure when the first attempt to send the client
949 Finished message on the network cannot be satisfied. Fixes #5499.
950 * Fix resource leaks in mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() in low
951 memory conditions.
952 * Fix server connection identifier setting for outgoing encrypted records
953 on DTLS 1.2 session resumption. After DTLS 1.2 session resumption with
954 connection identifier, the Mbed TLS client now properly sends the server
955 connection identifier in encrypted record headers. Fix #5872.
956 * Fix a null pointer dereference when performing some operations on zero
957 represented with 0 limbs (specifically mbedtls_mpi_mod_int() dividing
958 by 2, and mbedtls_mpi_write_string() in base 2).
959 * Fix record sizes larger than 16384 being sometimes accepted despite being
960 non-compliant. This could not lead to a buffer overflow. In particular,
961 application data size was already checked correctly.
962 * Fix MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_KEY_ID() and MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_OWNER_ID()
963 which have been broken, resulting in compilation errors, since Mbed TLS
964 3.0.
965 * Ensure that TLS 1.2 ciphersuite/certificate and key selection takes into
966 account not just the type of the key (RSA vs EC) but also what it can
967 actually do. Resolves #5831.
968 * Fix CMake windows host detection, especially when cross compiling.
969 * Fix an error in make where the absence of a generated file caused
970 make to break on a clean checkout. Fixes #5340.
971 * Work around an MSVC ARM64 compiler bug causing incorrect behaviour
972 in mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod(). Reported by Tautvydas Žilys in #5467.
Dave Rodgman2b52a2e2022-12-12 15:23:44 +0000973 * Removed the prompt to exit from all windows build programs, which was causing
Paul Elliott2238eed2022-07-08 18:19:12 +0100974 issues in CI/CD environments.
975
976Changes
977 * The file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c is now generated
978 from a template. In the future, the generation will support
979 driver descriptions. For the time being, to customize this file,
980 see docs/proposed/psa-driver-wrappers-codegen-migration-guide.md
981 * Return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT if the algorithm passed to one-shot
982 AEAD functions is not an AEAD algorithm. This aligns them with the
983 multipart functions, and the PSA Crypto API 1.1 specification.
984 * In mbedtls_pk_parse_key(), if no password is provided, don't allocate a
985 temporary variable on the heap. Suggested by Sergey Kanatov in #5304.
986 * Assume source files are in UTF-8 when using MSVC with CMake.
987 * Fix runtime library install location when building with CMake and MinGW.
988 DLLs are now installed in the bin directory instead of lib.
989 * cmake: Use GnuInstallDirs to customize install directories
990 Replace custom LIB_INSTALL_DIR variable with standard CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR
991 variable. For backward compatibility, set CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR if
992 LIB_INSTALL_DIR is set.
993 * Add a CMake option that enables static linking of the runtime library
994 in Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. Contributed by Microplankton.
995 * In CMake builds, add aliases for libraries so that the normal MbedTLS::*
996 targets work when MbedTLS is built as a subdirectory. This allows the
997 use of FetchContent, as requested in #5688.

Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +0100999= mbed TLS 3.1.0 branch released 2021-12-17
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001000
1001API changes
1002 * New error code for GCM: MBEDTLS_ERR_GCM_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL.
1003 Alternative GCM implementations are expected to verify
1004 the length of the provided output buffers and to return the
1005 MBEDTLS_ERR_GCM_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL in case the buffer length is too small.
1006 * You can configure groups for a TLS key exchange with the new function
1007 mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups(). It extends mbedtls_ssl_conf_curves().
1008 * Declare a number of structure fields as public: the fields of
1009 mbedtls_ecp_curve_info, the fields describing the result of ASN.1 and
1010 X.509 parsing, and finally the field fd of mbedtls_net_context on
1011 POSIX/Unix-like platforms.
1012
1013Requirement changes
1014 * Sign-magnitude and one's complement representations for signed integers are
1015 not supported. Two's complement is the only supported representation.
1016
1017New deprecations
1018 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_curves() in favor of the more generic
1019 mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups().
1020
1021Removals
1022 * Remove the partial support for running unit tests via Greentea on Mbed OS,
1023 which had been unmaintained since 2018.
1024
1025Features
1026 * Enable support for Curve448 via the PSA API. Contributed by
1027 Archana Madhavan in #4626. Fixes #3399 and #4249.
1028 * The identifier of the CID TLS extension can be configured by defining
1029 MBEDTLS_TLS_EXT_CID at compile time.
1030 * Implement the PSA multipart AEAD interface, currently supporting
1031 ChaChaPoly and GCM.
1032 * Warn if errors from certain functions are ignored. This is currently
1033 supported on GCC-like compilers and on MSVC and can be configured through
1034 the macro MBEDTLS_CHECK_RETURN. The warnings are always enabled
1035 (where supported) for critical functions where ignoring the return
1036 value is almost always a bug. Enable the new configuration option
1037 MBEDTLS_CHECK_RETURN_WARNING to get warnings for other functions. This
1038 is currently implemented in the AES, DES and md modules, and will be
1039 extended to other modules in the future.
1040 * Add missing PSA macros declared by PSA Crypto API 1.0.0:
1041 PSA_ALG_IS_SIGN_HASH, PSA_ALG_NONE, PSA_HASH_BLOCK_LENGTH, PSA_KEY_ID_NULL.
1042 * Add support for CCM*-no-tag cipher to the PSA.
1043 Currently only 13-byte long IV's are supported.
1044 For decryption a minimum of 16-byte long input is expected.
1045 These restrictions may be subject to change.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001046 * Add new API mbedtls_ct_memcmp for constant time buffer comparison.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001047 * Add functions to get the IV and block size from cipher_info structs.
1048 * Add functions to check if a cipher supports variable IV or key size.
1049 * Add the internal implementation of and support for CCM to the PSA multipart
1050 AEAD interface.
1051 * Mbed TLS provides a minimum viable implementation of the TLS 1.3
1052 protocol. See docs/architecture/tls13-support.md for the definition of
1053 the TLS 1.3 Minimum Viable Product (MVP). The MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3
1054 configuration option controls the enablement of the support. The APIs
1055 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version() and mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version() allow
1056 to select the 1.3 version of the protocol to establish a TLS connection.
1057 * Add PSA API definition for ARIA.
1058
1059Security
1060 * Zeroize several intermediate variables used to calculate the expected
1061 value when verifying a MAC or AEAD tag. This hardens the library in
1062 case the value leaks through a memory disclosure vulnerability. For
1063 example, a memory disclosure vulnerability could have allowed a
1064 man-in-the-middle to inject fake ciphertext into a DTLS connection.
1065 * In psa_aead_generate_nonce(), do not read back from the output buffer.
1066 This fixes a potential policy bypass or decryption oracle vulnerability
1067 if the output buffer is in memory that is shared with an untrusted
1068 application.
1069 * In psa_cipher_generate_iv() and psa_cipher_encrypt(), do not read back
1070 from the output buffer. This fixes a potential policy bypass or decryption
1071 oracle vulnerability if the output buffer is in memory that is shared with
1072 an untrusted application.
1073 * Fix a double-free that happened after mbedtls_ssl_set_session() or
1074 mbedtls_ssl_get_session() failed with MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ALLOC_FAILED
1075 (out of memory). After that, calling mbedtls_ssl_session_free()
1076 and mbedtls_ssl_free() would cause an internal session buffer to
1077 be free()'d twice.
1078
1079Bugfix
1080 * Stop using reserved identifiers as local variables. Fixes #4630.
1081 * The GNU makefiles invoke python3 in preference to python except on Windows.
1082 The check was accidentally not performed when cross-compiling for Windows
1083 on Linux. Fix this. Fixes #4774.
1084 * Prevent divide by zero if either of PSA_CIPHER_ENCRYPT_OUTPUT_SIZE() or
1085 PSA_CIPHER_UPDATE_OUTPUT_SIZE() were called using an asymmetric key type.
1086 * Fix a parameter set but unused in psa_crypto_cipher.c. Fixes #4935.
1087 * Don't use the obsolete header path sys/fcntl.h in unit tests.
1088 These header files cause compilation errors in musl.
1089 Fixes #4969.
1090 * Fix missing constraints on x86_64 and aarch64 assembly code
1091 for bignum multiplication that broke some bignum operations with
1092 (at least) Clang 12.
1093 Fixes #4116, #4786, #4917, #4962.
1094 * Fix mbedtls_cipher_crypt: AES-ECB when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
1095 * Failures of alternative implementations of AES or DES single-block
1096 functions enabled with MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT, MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT,
1097 MBEDTLS_DES_CRYPT_ECB_ALT or MBEDTLS_DES3_CRYPT_ECB_ALT were ignored.
1098 This does not concern the implementation provided with Mbed TLS,
1099 where this function cannot fail, or full-module replacements with
1100 MBEDTLS_AES_ALT or MBEDTLS_DES_ALT. Reported by Armelle Duboc in #1092.
1101 * Some failures of HMAC operations were ignored. These failures could only
1102 happen with an alternative implementation of the underlying hash module.
1103 * Fix the error returned by psa_generate_key() for a public key. Fixes #4551.
1104 * Fix compile-time or run-time errors in PSA
1105 AEAD functions when ChachaPoly is disabled. Fixes #5065.
1106 * Remove PSA'a AEAD finish/verify output buffer limitation for GCM.
1107 The requirement of minimum 15 bytes for output buffer in
1108 psa_aead_finish() and psa_aead_verify() does not apply to the built-in
1109 implementation of GCM.
1110 * Move GCM's update output buffer length verification from PSA AEAD to
1111 the built-in implementation of the GCM.
1112 The requirement for output buffer size to be equal or greater then
1113 input buffer size is valid only for the built-in implementation of GCM.
1114 Alternative GCM implementations can process whole blocks only.
1115 * Fix the build of sample programs when neither MBEDTLS_ERROR_C nor
1116 MBEDTLS_ERROR_STRERROR_DUMMY is enabled.
1117 * Fix PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS verification accepting an arbitrary salt length.
1118 This algorithm now accepts only the same salt length for verification
1119 that it produces when signing, as documented. Use the new algorithm
1120 PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS_ANY_SALT to accept any salt length. Fixes #4946.
1121 * The existing predicate macro name PSA_ALG_IS_HASH_AND_SIGN is now reserved
1122 for algorithm values that fully encode the hashing step, as per the PSA
1123 Crypto API specification. This excludes PSA_ALG_RSA_PKCS1V15_SIGN_RAW and
1124 PSA_ALG_ECDSA_ANY. The new predicate macro PSA_ALG_IS_SIGN_HASH covers
1125 all algorithms that can be used with psa_{sign,verify}_hash(), including
1126 these two.
1127 * Fix issue in Makefile on Linux with SHARED=1, that caused shared libraries
1128 not to list other shared libraries they need.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001129 * Fix a bug in mbedtls_gcm_starts() when the bit length of the iv
1130 exceeds 2^32. Fixes #4884.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001131 * Fix an uninitialized variable warning in test_suite_ssl.function with GCC
1132 version 11.
1133 * Fix the build when no SHA2 module is included. Fixes #4930.
1134 * Fix the build when only the bignum module is included. Fixes #4929.
1135 * Fix a potential invalid pointer dereference and infinite loop bugs in
1136 pkcs12 functions when the password is empty. Fix the documentation to
1137 better describe the inputs to these functions and their possible values.
1138 Fixes #5136.
1139 * The key usage flags PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_MESSAGE now allows the MAC
1140 operations psa_mac_compute() and psa_mac_sign_setup().
1141 * The key usage flags PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_MESSAGE now allows the MAC
1142 operations psa_mac_verify() and psa_mac_verify_setup().
1143
1144Changes
1145 * Explicitly mark the fields mbedtls_ssl_session.exported and
1146 mbedtls_ssl_config.respect_cli_pref as private. This was an
1147 oversight during the run-up to the release of Mbed TLS 3.0.
1148 The fields were never intended to be public.
1149 * Implement multi-part CCM API.
1150 The multi-part functions: mbedtls_ccm_starts(), mbedtls_ccm_set_lengths(),
1151 mbedtls_ccm_update_ad(), mbedtls_ccm_update(), mbedtls_ccm_finish()
1152 were introduced in mbedTLS 3.0 release, however their implementation was
1153 postponed until now.
1154 Implemented functions support chunked data input for both CCM and CCM*
1155 algorithms.
1156 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS, making it always on and increasing the
1157 code size by about 80B on an M0 build. This option only gated an ability
1158 to set a callback, but was deemed unnecessary as it was yet another define
1159 to remember when writing tests, or test configurations. Fixes #4653.
1160 * Improve the performance of base64 constant-flow code. The result is still
1161 slower than the original non-constant-flow implementation, but much faster
1162 than the previous constant-flow implementation. Fixes #4814.
1163 * Ignore plaintext/ciphertext lengths for CCM*-no-tag operations.
1164 For CCM* encryption/decryption without authentication, input
1165 length will be ignored.
1166 * Indicate in the error returned if the nonce length used with
1167 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is invalid, and not just unsupported.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001168 * The mbedcrypto library includes a new source code module constant_time.c,
1169 containing various functions meant to resist timing side channel attacks.
1170 This module does not have a separate configuration option, and functions
1171 from this module will be included in the build as required. Currently
1172 most of the interface of this module is private and may change at any
1173 time.
1174 * The generated configuration-independent files are now automatically
1175 generated by the CMake build system on Unix-like systems. This is not
1176 yet supported when cross-compiling.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001177
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001178= Mbed TLS 3.0.0 branch released 2021-07-07
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001179
1180API changes
1181 * Remove HAVEGE module.
1182 The design of HAVEGE makes it unsuitable for microcontrollers. Platforms
1183 with a more complex CPU usually have an operating system interface that
1184 provides better randomness. Instead of HAVEGE, declare OS or hardware RNG
1185 interfaces with mbedtls_entropy_add_source() and/or use an entropy seed
1186 file created securely during device provisioning. See
Dave Rodgmanb3196842022-10-12 16:47:08 +01001187 https://mbed-tls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kb/how-to/add-entropy-sources-to-entropy-pool/ for
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001188 more information.
1189 * Add missing const attributes to API functions.
1190 * Remove helpers for the transition from Mbed TLS 1.3 to Mbed TLS 2.0: the
1191 header compat-1.3.h and the script rename.pl.
1192 * Remove certs module from the API.
1193 Transfer keys and certificates embedded in the library to the test
1194 component. This contributes to minimizing library API and discourages
1195 users from using unsafe keys in production.
1196 * Move alt helpers and definitions.
1197 Various helpers and definitions available for use in alt implementations
1198 have been moved out of the include/ directory and into the library/
1199 directory. The files concerned are ecp_internal.h and rsa_internal.h
Gilles Peskine6a2fb612021-05-24 22:25:04 +02001200 which have also been renamed to ecp_internal_alt.h and rsa_alt_helpers.h
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001201 respectively.
1202 * Move internal headers.
1203 Header files that were only meant for the library's internal use and
1204 were not meant to be used in application code have been moved out of
1205 the include/ directory. The headers concerned are bn_mul.h, aesni.h,
1206 padlock.h, entropy_poll.h and *_internal.h.
1207 * Drop support for parsing SSLv2 ClientHello
1208 (MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_SUPPORT_SSLV2_CLIENT_HELLO).
1209 * Drop support for SSLv3 (MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_SSL3).
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001210 * Drop support for TLS record-level compression (MBEDTLS_ZLIB_SUPPORT).
1211 * Drop support for RC4 TLS ciphersuites.
1212 * Drop support for single-DES ciphersuites.
1213 * Drop support for MBEDTLS_SSL_HW_RECORD_ACCEL.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001214 * Update AEAD output size macros to bring them in line with the PSA Crypto
1215 API version 1.0 spec. This version of the spec parameterizes them on the
1216 key type used, as well as the key bit-size in the case of
1217 PSA_AEAD_TAG_LENGTH.
1218 * Add configuration option MBEDTLS_X509_REMOVE_INFO which
1219 removes the mbedtls_x509_*_info(), mbedtls_debug_print_crt()
1220 as well as other functions and constants only used by
1221 those functions. This reduces the code footprint by
1222 several kB.
1223 * Remove SSL error codes `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CERTIFICATE_REQUIRED`
1224 and `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INVALID_VERIFY_HASH` which are never
1225 returned from the public SSL API.
1226 * Remove `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CERTIFICATE_TOO_LARGE` and return
1227 `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL` instead.
Dave Rodgman814b0992021-07-02 12:11:14 +01001228 * The output parameter of mbedtls_sha512_finish, mbedtls_sha512,
1229 mbedtls_sha256_finish and mbedtls_sha256 now has a pointer type
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001230 rather than array type. This removes spurious warnings in some compilers
1231 when outputting a SHA-384 or SHA-224 hash into a buffer of exactly
1232 the hash size.
1233 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TEST_NULL_ENTROPY config option. Fixes #4388.
1234 * The interface of the GCM module has changed to remove restrictions on
1235 how the input to multipart operations is broken down. mbedtls_gcm_finish()
Dave Rodgmaneaef0b72021-07-01 16:59:13 +01001236 now takes extra output parameters for the last partial output block.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001237 mbedtls_gcm_update() now takes extra parameters for the output length.
1238 The software implementation always produces the full output at each
1239 call to mbedtls_gcm_update(), but alternative implementations activated
1240 by MBEDTLS_GCM_ALT may delay partial blocks to the next call to
1241 mbedtls_gcm_update() or mbedtls_gcm_finish(). Furthermore, applications
1242 no longer pass the associated data to mbedtls_gcm_starts(), but to the
1243 new function mbedtls_gcm_update_ad().
1244 These changes are backward compatible for users of the cipher API.
1245 * Replace MBEDTLS_SHA512_NO_SHA384 config option with MBEDTLS_SHA384_C.
1246 This separates config option enabling the SHA384 algorithm from option
1247 enabling the SHA512 algorithm. Fixes #4034.
1248 * Introduce MBEDTLS_SHA224_C.
1249 This separates config option enabling the SHA224 algorithm from option
1250 enabling SHA256.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001251 * The getter and setter API of the SSL session cache (used for
1252 session-ID based session resumption) has changed to that of
1253 a key-value store with keys being session IDs and values
1254 being opaque instances of `mbedtls_ssl_session`.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001255 * Remove the mode parameter from RSA operation functions. Signature and
1256 decryption functions now always use the private key and verification and
1257 encryption use the public key. Verification functions also no longer have
1258 RNG parameters.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001259 * Modify semantics of `mbedtls_ssl_conf_[opaque_]psk()`:
1260 In Mbed TLS 2.X, the API prescribes that later calls overwrite
1261 the effect of earlier calls. In Mbed TLS 3.0, calling
1262 `mbedtls_ssl_conf_[opaque_]psk()` more than once will fail,
1263 leaving the PSK that was configured first intact.
1264 Support for more than one PSK may be added in 3.X.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001265 * The function mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension() has an extra parameter
1266 which allows to mark an extension as critical. Fixes #4055.
1267 * For multi-part AEAD operations with the cipher module, calling
1268 mbedtls_cipher_finish() is now mandatory. Previously the documentation
1269 was unclear on this point, and this function happened to never do
1270 anything with the currently implemented AEADs, so in practice it was
1271 possible to skip calling it, which is no longer supported.
1272 * The option MBEDTLS_ECP_FIXED_POINT_OPTIM use pre-computed comb tables
1273 instead of computing tables in runtime. Thus, this option now increase
1274 code size, and it does not increase RAM usage in runtime anymore.
1275 * Remove the SSL APIs mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() and
1276 mbedtls_ssl_get_output_max_frag_len(), and add a new API
1277 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_in_record_payload(), complementing the existing
1278 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_out_record_payload().
1279 Uses of mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() and
1280 mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() should be replaced by
1281 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_in_record_payload() and
1282 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_out_record_payload(), respectively.
1283 * mbedtls_rsa_init() now always selects the PKCS#1v1.5 encoding for an RSA
1284 key. To use an RSA key with PSS or OAEP, call mbedtls_rsa_set_padding()
1285 after initializing the context. mbedtls_rsa_set_padding() now returns an
1286 error if its parameters are invalid.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001287 * Replace MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_RESPECT_CLIENT_PREFERENCE by a runtime
1288 configuration function mbedtls_ssl_conf_preference_order(). Fixes #4398.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001289 * Instead of accessing the len field of a DHM context, which is no longer
1290 supported, use the new function mbedtls_dhm_get_len() .
1291 * In modules that implement cryptographic hash functions, many functions
1292 mbedtls_xxx() now return int instead of void, and the corresponding
1293 function mbedtls_xxx_ret() which was identical except for returning int
1294 has been removed. This also concerns mbedtls_xxx_drbg_update(). See the
1295 migration guide for more information. Fixes #4212.
1296 * For all functions that take a random number generator (RNG) as a
1297 parameter, this parameter is now mandatory (that is, NULL is not an
1298 acceptable value). Functions which previously accepted NULL and now
1299 reject it are: the X.509 CRT and CSR writing functions; the PK and RSA
1300 sign and decrypt function; mbedtls_rsa_private(); the functions
1301 in DHM and ECDH that compute the shared secret; the scalar multiplication
1302 functions in ECP.
1303 * The following functions now require an RNG parameter:
1304 mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(),
1305 mbedtls_pk_parse_key(), mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile().
1306 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_export_keys_ext_cb() and
1307 mbedtls_ssl_conf_export_keys_cb() have been removed and
1308 replaced by a new API mbedtls_ssl_set_export_keys_cb().
1309 Raw keys and IVs are no longer passed to the callback.
1310 Further, callbacks now receive an additional parameter
1311 indicating the type of secret that's being exported,
1312 paving the way for the larger number of secrets
1313 in TLS 1.3. Finally, the key export callback and
1314 context are now connection-specific.
1315 * Signature functions in the RSA and PK modules now require the hash
1316 length parameter to be the size of the hash input. For RSA signatures
1317 other than raw PKCS#1 v1.5, this must match the output size of the
1318 specified hash algorithm.
1319 * The functions mbedtls_pk_sign(), mbedtls_pk_sign_restartable(),
1320 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature() and
1321 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature_restartable() now take an extra parameter
1322 indicating the size of the output buffer for the signature.
1323 * Implement one-shot cipher functions, psa_cipher_encrypt and
1324 psa_cipher_decrypt, according to the PSA Crypto API 1.0.0
1325 specification.
1326 * Direct access to fields of structures declared in public headers is no
1327 longer supported except for fields that are documented public. Use accessor
1328 functions instead. For more information, see the migration guide entry
1329 "Most structure fields are now private".
Dave Rodgman9bd03892021-07-01 16:59:49 +01001330 * mbedtls_ssl_get_session_pointer() has been removed, and
1331 mbedtls_ssl_{set,get}_session() may now only be called once for any given
1332 SSL context.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001333
1334Default behavior changes
1335 * Enable by default the functionalities which have no reason to be disabled.
1336 They are: ARIA block cipher, CMAC mode, elliptic curve J-PAKE library and
1337 Key Wrapping mode as defined in NIST SP 800-38F. Fixes #4036.
1338 * Some default policies for X.509 certificate verification and TLS have
1339 changed: curves and hashes weaker than 255 bits are no longer accepted
1340 by default. The default order in TLS now favors faster curves over larger
1341 curves.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001342
1343Requirement changes
1344 * The library now uses the %zu format specifier with the printf() family of
1345 functions, so requires a toolchain that supports it. This change does not
1346 affect the maintained LTS branches, so when contributing changes please
1347 bear this in mind and do not add them to backported code.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001348 * If you build the development version of Mbed TLS, rather than an official
1349 release, some configuration-independent files are now generated at build
1350 time rather than checked into source control. This includes some library
1351 source files as well as the Visual Studio solution. Perl, Python 3 and a
1352 C compiler for the host platform are required. See “Generated source files
1353 in the development branch” in README.md for more information.
1354 * Refresh the minimum supported versions of tools to build the
1355 library. CMake versions older than 3.10.2 and Python older
1356 than 3.6 are no longer supported.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001357
1358Removals
1359 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
1360 compile-time option, which was off by default. Users should not trust
1361 certificates signed with SHA-1 due to the known attacks against SHA-1.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard143b1e32021-05-05 09:46:01 +02001362 If needed, SHA-1 certificates can still be verified by using a custom
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde7563062021-04-26 10:08:29 +02001363 verification profile.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001364 * Removed deprecated things in psa/crypto_compat.h. Fixes #4284
1365 * Removed deprecated functions from hashing modules. Fixes #4280.
1366 * Remove PKCS#11 library wrapper. PKCS#11 has limited functionality,
1367 lacks automated tests and has scarce documentation. Also, PSA Crypto
1368 provides a more flexible private key management.
1369 More details on PCKS#11 wrapper removal can be found in the mailing list
1370 https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/000024.html
1371 * Remove deprecated error codes. Fix #4283
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001372 * Remove MBEDTLS_ENABLE_WEAK_CIPHERSUITES configuration option. Fixes #4416.
1373 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
1374 compile-time option. This option has been inactive for a long time.
1375 Please use the `lifetime` parameter of `mbedtls_ssl_ticket_setup()`
1376 instead.
1377 * Remove the following deprecated functions and constants of hex-encoded
1378 primes based on RFC 5114 and RFC 3526 from library code and tests:
1379 mbedtls_aes_encrypt(), mbedtls_aes_decrypt(), mbedtls_mpi_is_prime(),
1380 mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt(), mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt(),
1381 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update(), mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update(),
1382 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature_det(), mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det(),
1383 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param(), mbedtls_ssl_get_max_frag_len(),
1384 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC5114_MODP_2048_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC5114_MODP_2048_G,
1385 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_G,
1386 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_3072_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_3072_G,
1387 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_4096_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_4096_G.
1388 Remove the deprecated file: include/mbedtls/net.h. Fixes #4282.
1389 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_MAX_CONTENT_LEN configuration option, since
1390 MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN and MBEDTLS_SSL_OUT_CONTENT_LEN replace
1391 it. Fixes #4362.
1392 * Remove the MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_CHECKING option and enable by default its
1393 previous action. Fixes #4361.
1394 * Remove support for TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0, as well as support for
1395 CBC record splitting, fallback SCSV, and the ability to configure
1396 ciphersuites per version, which are no longer relevant. This removes the
1397 configuration options MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1,
1398 MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_1, MBEDTLS_SSL_CBC_RECORD_SPLITTING and
1399 MBEDTLS_SSL_FALLBACK_SCSV as well as the functions
1400 mbedtls_ssl_conf_cbc_record_splitting(),
1401 mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_ssl_tls(), mbedtls_ssl_conf_fallback(),
1402 and mbedtls_ssl_conf_ciphersuites_for_version(). Fixes #4286.
1403 * The RSA module no longer supports private-key operations with the public
1404 key and vice versa.
1405 * Remove the MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_BADMAC_LIMIT config.h option. Fixes #4403.
1406 * Remove all the 3DES ciphersuites:
1407 MBEDTLS_TLS_DHE_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1408 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1409 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1410 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1411 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1412 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1413 MBEDTLS_TLS_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1414 MBEDTLS_TLS_RSA_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1415 MBEDTLS_TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA. Remove the
1416 MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES option which is no longer relevant.
1417 Fixes #4367.
1418 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_EXTENSIONS_NON_V3 option and let the code
1419 behave as if it was always disabled. Fixes #4386.
1420 * Remove MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT config option since this was purely for
1421 backward compatibility which is no longer supported. Addresses #4404.
1422 * Remove the following macros: MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS,
1423 MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS_ASSERT, MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED,
1424 MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED_ALT. Fixes #4313.
1425 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION config.h
1426 option. The mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() is the way to go for
1427 migration path. Fixes #4378.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001428 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_CHECK_KEY_USAGE and
1429 MBEDTLS_X509_CHECK_EXTENDED_KEY_USAGE config.h options and let the code
1430 behave as if they were always enabled. Fixes #4405.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001431 * MBEDTLS_ECP_MAX_BITS is no longer a configuration option because it is
1432 now determined automatically based on supported curves.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001433 * Remove the following functions: mbedtls_timing_self_test(),
1434 mbedtls_hardclock_poll(), mbedtls_timing_hardclock() and
1435 mbedtls_set_alarm(). Fixes #4083.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001436 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG has been removed as
1437 it no longer had any effect.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001438 * Remove all support for MD2, MD4, RC4, Blowfish and XTEA. This removes the
1439 corresponding modules and all their APIs and related configuration
1440 options. Fixes #4084.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001441 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC and also remove
1442 MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT config option. Users are better served by
1443 using a CCM-8 ciphersuite than a CBC ciphersuite with truncated HMAC.
1444 See issue #4341 for more details.
1445 * Remove the compile-time option
1446 MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_KEY_EXCHANGE.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001447
1448Features
1449 * Add mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_sign_ext() function allowing to generate a
1450 signature with a specific salt length. This function allows to validate
1451 test cases provided in the NIST's CAVP test suite. Contributed by Cédric
1452 Meuter in PR #3183.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001453 * Added support for built-in driver keys through the PSA opaque crypto
1454 driver interface. Refer to the documentation of
1455 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_BUILTIN_KEYS for more information.
1456 * Implement psa_sign_message() and psa_verify_message().
1457 * The multi-part GCM interface (mbedtls_gcm_update() or
1458 mbedtls_cipher_update()) no longer requires the size of partial inputs to
1459 be a multiple of 16.
1460 * The multi-part GCM interface now supports chunked associated data through
1461 multiple calls to mbedtls_gcm_update_ad().
1462 * The new function mbedtls_mpi_random() generates a random value in a
1463 given range uniformly.
1464 * Alternative implementations of the AES, DHM, ECJPAKE, ECP, RSA and timing
1465 modules had undocumented constraints on their context types. These
1466 constraints have been relaxed.
1467 See docs/architecture/alternative-implementations.md for the remaining
1468 constraints.
1469 * The new functions mbedtls_dhm_get_len() and mbedtls_dhm_get_bitlen()
1470 query the size of the modulus in a Diffie-Hellman context.
1471 * The new function mbedtls_dhm_get_value() copy a field out of a
1472 Diffie-Hellman context.
1473 * Use the new function mbedtls_ecjpake_set_point_format() to select the
1474 point format for ECJPAKE instead of accessing the point_format field
1475 directly, which is no longer supported.
1476 * Implement psa_mac_compute() and psa_mac_verify() as defined in the
1477 PSA Cryptograpy API 1.0.0 specification.

Dave Rodgman5b13f602021-07-05 18:09:16 +01001480 * Fix a bias in the generation of finite-field Diffie-Hellman-Merkle (DHM)
1481 private keys and of blinding values for DHM and elliptic curves (ECP)
1482 computations. Reported by FlorianF89 in #4245.
1483 * Fix a potential side channel vulnerability in ECDSA ephemeral key generation.
1484 An adversary who is capable of very precise timing measurements could
1485 learn partial information about the leading bits of the nonce used for the
1486 signature, allowing the recovery of the private key after observing a
1487 large number of signature operations. This completes a partial fix in
1488 Mbed TLS 2.20.0.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001489 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough information
1490 about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking
1491 a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the
1492 victim performing a single private-key operation. Found and reported by
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001493 Zili KOU, Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001494 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough timing
1495 information (typically, a co-located process) could recover a Curve25519
1496 or Curve448 static ECDH key after inputting a chosen public key and
1497 observing the victim performing the corresponding private-key operation.
1498 Found and reported by Leila Batina, Lukas Chmielewski, Björn Haase, Niels
1499 Samwel and Peter Schwabe.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001500
1501Bugfix
1502 * Fix premature fopen() call in mbedtls_entropy_write_seed_file which may
1503 lead to the seed file corruption in case if the path to the seed file is
1504 equal to MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_NV_SEED_FILE. Contributed by Victor
1505 Krasnoshchok in #3616.
1506 * PSA functions creating a key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT rather
1507 than PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE when the identifier specified for the key
1508 to create is not valid, bringing them in line with version 1.0.0 of the
1509 specification. Fix #4271.
1510 * Add printf function attributes to mbedtls_debug_print_msg to ensure we
1511 get printf format specifier warnings.
1512 * PSA functions other than psa_open_key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE
1513 rather than PSA_ERROR_DOES_NOT_EXIST for an invalid handle, bringing them
1514 in line with version 1.0.0 of the specification. Fix #4162.
1515 * Fix a bug in ECDSA that would cause it to fail when the hash is all-bits
1516 zero. Fixes #1792
Gilles Peskinef4998b02021-06-10 15:51:54 +02001517 * Fix some cases in the bignum module where the library constructed an
1518 unintended representation of the value 0 which was not processed
1519 correctly by some bignum operations. This could happen when
1520 mbedtls_mpi_read_string() was called on "-0", or when
1521 mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi() and mbedtls_mpi_mul_int() was called with one of
1522 the arguments being negative and the other being 0. Fixes #4643.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001523 * Fix a compilation error when MBEDTLS_ECP_RANDOMIZE_MXZ_ALT is
1524 defined. Fixes #4217.
1525 * Fix an incorrect error code when parsing a PKCS#8 private key.
1526 * In a TLS client, enforce the Diffie-Hellman minimum parameter size
1527 set with mbedtls_ssl_conf_dhm_min_bitlen() precisely. Before, the
1528 minimum size was rounded down to the nearest multiple of 8.
1529 * In library/net_sockets.c, _POSIX_C_SOURCE and _XOPEN_SOURCE are
1530 defined to specific values. If the code is used in a context
1531 where these are already defined, this can result in a compilation
1532 error. Instead, assume that if they are defined, the values will
1533 be adequate to build Mbed TLS.
1534 * With MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C disabled, some functions were getting built
1535 nonetheless, resulting in undefined reference errors when building a
1536 shared library. Reported by Guillermo Garcia M. in #4411.
1537 * The cipher suite TLS-RSA-WITH-CAMELLIA-256-GCM-SHA384 was not available
1538 when SHA-1 was disabled and was offered when SHA-1 was enabled but SHA-384
1539 was disabled. Fix the dependency. Fixes #4472.
1540 * Do not offer SHA384 cipher suites when SHA-384 is disabled. Fixes #4499.
1541 * Fix test suite code on platforms where int32_t is not int, such as
1542 Arm Cortex-M. Fixes #4530.
1543 * Fix some issues affecting MBEDTLS_ARIA_ALT implementations: a misplaced
1544 directive in a header and a missing initialization in the self-test.
1545 * Fix a missing initialization in the Camellia self-test, affecting
1546 MBEDTLS_CAMELLIA_ALT implementations.
1547 * Restore the ability to configure PSA via Mbed TLS options to support RSA
1548 key pair operations but exclude RSA key generation. When MBEDTLS_GENPRIME
1549 is not defined PSA will no longer attempt to use mbedtls_rsa_gen_key().
1550 Fixes #4512.
1551 * Fix a regression introduced in 2.24.0 which broke (D)TLS CBC ciphersuites
1552 (when the encrypt-then-MAC extension is not in use) with some ALT
1553 implementations of the underlying hash (SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384), causing
1554 the affected side to wrongly reject valid messages. Fixes #4118.
1555 * Remove outdated check-config.h check that prevented implementing the
1556 timing module on Mbed OS. Fixes #4633.
1557 * Fix PSA_ALG_TLS12_PRF and PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS being too permissive
1558 about missing inputs.
1559 * Fix mbedtls_net_poll() and mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() often failing with
1560 MBEDTLS_ERR_NET_POLL_FAILED on Windows. Fixes #4465.
1561 * Fix a resource leak in a test suite with an alternative AES
1562 implementation. Fixes #4176.
1563 * Fix a crash in mbedtls_mpi_debug_mpi on a bignum having 0 limbs. This
1564 could notably be triggered by setting the TLS debug level to 3 or above
1565 and using a Montgomery curve for the key exchange. Reported by lhuang04
1566 in #4578. Fixes #4608.
1567 * psa_verify_hash() was relying on implementation-specific behavior of
1568 mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_verify() and was causing failures in some _ALT
1569 implementations. This reliance is now removed. Fixes #3990.
1570 * Disallow inputs of length different from the corresponding hash when
1571 signing or verifying with PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS (The PSA Crypto API mandates
1572 that PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS uses the same hash throughout the algorithm.)
1573 * Fix a null pointer dereference when mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod() was called with
1574 A=0 represented with 0 limbs. Up to and including Mbed TLS 2.26, this bug
1575 could not be triggered by code that constructed A with one of the
1576 mbedtls_mpi_read_xxx functions (including in particular TLS code) since
1577 those always built an mpi object with at least one limb.
1578 Credit to OSS-Fuzz. Fixes #4641.
1579 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_gcd(G,A,B) when the value of B is zero. This had no
1580 effect on Mbed TLS's internal use of mbedtls_mpi_gcd(), but may affect
1581 applications that call mbedtls_mpi_gcd() directly. Fixes #4642.
1582 * The PSA API no longer allows the creation or destruction of keys with a
1583 read-only lifetime. The persistence level PSA_KEY_PERSISTENCE_READ_ONLY
1584 can now only be used as intended, for keys that cannot be modified through
1585 normal use of the API.
1586 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SPM is enabled, crypto_spe.h was not included
1587 in all the right places. Include it from crypto_platform.h, which is
1588 the natural place. Fixes #4649.
1589 * Fix which alert is sent in some cases to conform to the
1590 applicable RFC: on an invalid Finished message value, an
1591 invalid max_fragment_length extension, or an
1592 unsupported extension used by the server.
Dave Rodgmana84a8eb2021-07-01 17:01:04 +01001593 * Correct (change from 12 to 13 bytes) the value of the macro describing the
1594 maximum nonce length returned by psa_aead_generate_nonce().
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001595
1596Changes
1597 * Fix the setting of the read timeout in the DTLS sample programs.
1598 * Add extra printf compiler warning flags to builds.
1599 * Fix memsan build false positive in x509_crt.c with clang 11
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001600 * Alternative implementations of CMAC may now opt to not support 3DES as a
1601 CMAC block cipher, and still pass the CMAC self test.
1602 * Remove the AES sample application programs/aes/aescrypt2 which shows
1603 bad cryptographic practice. Fix #1906.
1604 * Remove configs/config-psa-crypto.h, which no longer had any intended
1605 differences from the default configuration, but had accidentally diverged.
1606 * When building the test suites with GNU make, invoke python3 or python, not
1607 python2, which is no longer supported upstream.
1608 * fix build failure on MinGW toolchain when __USE_MING_ANSI_STDIO is on.
1609 When that flag is on, standard GNU C printf format specifiers
1610 should be used.
1611 * Replace MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_PADDING_GRANULARITY and
1612 MBEDTLS_SSL_TLS1_3_PADDING_GRANULARITY with a new single unified option
1613 MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_TLS1_3_PADDING_GRANULARITY. Fixes #4335.
1614 * Reduce the default value of MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE. This reduces RAM usage
1615 during ECC operations at a negligible performance cost.
1616 * mbedtls_mpi_read_binary(), mbedtls_mpi_read_binary_le() and
1617 mbedtls_mpi_read_string() now construct an mbedtls_mpi object with 0 limbs
1618 when their input has length 0. Note that this is an implementation detail
1619 and can change at any time, so this change should be transparent, but it
1620 may result in mbedtls_mpi_write_binary() or mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
1621 now writing an empty string where it previously wrote one or more
1622 zero digits when operating from values constructed with an mpi_read
1623 function and some mpi operations.
1624 * Add CMake package config generation for CMake projects consuming Mbed TLS.
1625 * config.h has been split into build_info.h and mbedtls_config.h
1626 build_info.h is intended to be included from C code directly, while
1627 mbedtls_config.h is intended to be edited by end users wishing to
1628 change the build configuration, and should generally only be included from
1629 build_info.h.
1630 * The handling of MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE has been moved into build_info.h.
1631 * A config file version symbol, MBEDTLS_CONFIG_VERSION was introduced.
1632 Defining it to a particular value will ensure that Mbed TLS interprets
1633 the config file in a way that's compatible with the config file format
1634 used by the Mbed TLS release whose MBEDTLS_VERSION_NUMBER has the same
1635 value.
1636 The only value supported by Mbed TLS 3.0.0 is 0x03000000.
1637 * Various changes to which alert and/or error code may be returned
1638 * during the TLS handshake.
1639 * Implicitly add PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_MESSAGE key usage policy flag when
1640 PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_HASH flag is set and PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_MESSAGE flag
1641 when PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_HASH flag is set. This usage flag extension
1642 is also applied when loading a key from storage.

1646API changes
1647 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API output buffer size macros to bring them in line
1648 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
1649 * The API glue function mbedtls_ecc_group_of_psa() now takes the curve size
1650 in bits rather than bytes, with an additional flag to indicate if the
1651 size may have been rounded up to a whole number of bytes.
1652 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API AEAD tag length macros to bring them in line
1653 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
1654
1655Default behavior changes
1656 * In mbedtls_rsa_context objects, the ver field was formerly documented
1657 as always 0. It is now reserved for internal purposes and may take
1658 different values.
1659
1660New deprecations
1661 * PSA_KEY_EXPORT_MAX_SIZE, PSA_HASH_SIZE, PSA_MAC_FINAL_SIZE,
1662 PSA_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE, PSA_MAX_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE and
1663 PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS_MAX_PSK_LEN have been renamed, and the old names
1664 deprecated.
1665 * PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_DEFAULT_TAG_LENGTH and PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_TAG_LENGTH
1666 have been renamed, and the old names deprecated.
1667
1668Features
1669 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now use HMAC_DRBG instead of CTR_DRBG.
1670 CTR_DRBG is used by default if it is available, but you can override
1671 this choice by setting MBEDTLS_PSA_HMAC_DRBG_MD_TYPE at compile time.
1672 Fix #3354.
1673 * Automatic fallback to a software implementation of ECP when
1674 MBEDTLS_ECP_xxx_ALT accelerator hooks are in use can now be turned off
1675 through setting the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_FALLBACK.
1676 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now be configured to use less static RAM by
1677 tweaking the setting for the maximum amount of keys simultaneously in RAM.
1678 MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT sets the maximum number of volatile keys that
1679 can exist simultaneously. It has a sensible default if not overridden.
1680 * Partial implementation of the PSA crypto driver interface: Mbed TLS can
1681 now use an external random generator instead of the library's own
1682 entropy collection and DRBG code. Enable MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG
1683 and see the documentation of mbedtls_psa_external_get_random() for details.
1684 * Applications using both mbedtls_xxx and psa_xxx functions (for example,
1685 applications using TLS and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO) can now use the PSA
1686 random generator with mbedtls_xxx functions. See the documentation of
1687 mbedtls_psa_get_random() for details.
1688 * In the PSA API, the policy for a MAC or AEAD algorithm can specify a
1689 minimum MAC or tag length thanks to the new wildcards
1690 PSA_ALG_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_MAC and
1691 PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_TAG.
1692
1693Security
1694 * Fix a security reduction in CTR_DRBG when the initial seeding obtained a
1695 nonce from entropy. Applications were affected if they called
1696 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len(), if they called
1697 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() with a size that was 3/2 times the key
1698 length, or when the entropy module uses SHA-256 and CTR_DRBG uses AES-256.
1699 In such cases, a random nonce was necessary to achieve the advertised
1700 security strength, but the code incorrectly used a constant instead of
1701 entropy from the nonce.
1702 Found by John Stroebel in #3819 and fixed in #3973.
1703 * Fix a buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when calculating
1704 |A| - |B| where |B| is larger than |A| and has more limbs (so the
1705 function should return MBEDTLS_ERR_MPI_NEGATIVE_VALUE). Only
1706 applications calling mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() directly are affected:
1707 all calls inside the library were safe since this function is
1708 only called with |A| >= |B|. Reported by Guido Vranken in #4042.
1709 * Fix an errorneous estimation for an internal buffer in
1710 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(). If MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE is set to an odd
1711 value the function might fail to write a private RSA keys of the largest
1712 supported size.
1713 Found by Daniel Otte, reported in #4093 and fixed in #4094.
1714 * Fix a stack buffer overflow with mbedtls_net_poll() and
1715 mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() when given a file descriptor that is
1716 beyond FD_SETSIZE. Reported by FigBug in #4169.
1717 * Guard against strong local side channel attack against base64 tables by
1718 making access aceess to them use constant flow code.
1719
1720Bugfix
1721 * Fix use-after-scope error in programs/ssl/ssl_client2.c and ssl_server2.c
1722 * Fix memory leak that occured when calling psa_close_key() on a
1723 wrapped key with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C defined.
1724 * Fix an incorrect error code if an RSA private operation glitched.
1725 * Fix a memory leak in an error case in psa_generate_derived_key_internal().
1726 * Fix a resource leak in CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C
1727 is enabled, on platforms where initializing a mutex allocates resources.
1728 This was a regression introduced in the previous release. Reported in
1729 #4017, #4045 and #4071.
1730 * Ensure that calling mbedtls_rsa_free() or mbedtls_entropy_free()
1731 twice is safe. This happens for RSA when some Mbed TLS library functions
1732 fail. Such a double-free was not safe when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C was
1733 enabled on platforms where freeing a mutex twice is not safe.
1734 * Fix a resource leak in a bad-arguments case of mbedtls_rsa_gen_key()
1735 when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled on platforms where initializing
1736 a mutex allocates resources.
1737 * Fixes a bug where, if the library was configured to include support for
1738 both the old SE interface and the new PSA driver interface, external keys were
1739 not loaded from storage. This was fixed by #3996.
1740 * This change makes 'mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_basic_constraints'
1741 consistent with RFC 5280 4.2.1.9 which says: "Conforming CAs MUST
1742 include this extension in all CA certificates that contain public keys
1743 used to validate digital signatures on certificates and MUST mark the
1744 extension as critical in such certificates." Previous to this change,
1745 the extension was always marked as non-critical. This was fixed by
1746 #3698.
1747
1748Changes
1749 * A new library C file psa_crypto_client.c has been created to contain
1750 the PSA code needed by a PSA crypto client when the PSA crypto
1751 implementation is not included into the library.
1752 * On recent enough versions of FreeBSD and DragonFlyBSD, the entropy module
1753 now uses the getrandom syscall instead of reading from /dev/urandom.

1757API changes
1758 * The numerical values of the PSA Crypto API macros have been updated to
1759 conform to version 1.0.0 of the specification.
1760 * PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER replaces PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4.
1761 The underlying stream cipher is determined by the key type
1762 (PSA_KEY_TYPE_CHACHA20 or PSA_KEY_TYPE_ARC4).
1763 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
1764 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() no longer accept NIST_KW contexts,
1765 as they have no way to check if the output buffer is large enough.
1766 Please use mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
1767 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext() instead. Credit to OSS-Fuzz and
1768 Cryptofuzz. Fixes #3665.
1769
1770Requirement changes
Janos Follathe9216262020-12-10 11:03:01 +00001771 * Update the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.12. This silences a
1772 warning on CMake 3.19.0. #3801
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001773
1774New deprecations
Bence Szépkútife9a4252021-02-08 18:13:02 +01001775 * PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4 have been deprecated.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001776 Use PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER instead.
1777 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
1778 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() are deprecated in favour of the new
1779 functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
1780 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext(). Please note that with AEAD ciphers,
1781 these new functions always append the tag to the ciphertext, and include
1782 the tag in the ciphertext length.
1783
1784Features
Janos Follathd6ce1162020-12-09 16:32:01 +00001785 * Partial implementation of the new PSA Crypto accelerator APIs. (Symmetric
1786 ciphers, asymmetric signing/verification and key generation, validate_key
1787 entry point, and export_public_key interface.)
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001788 * Add support for ECB to the PSA cipher API.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001789 * In PSA, allow using a key declared with a base key agreement algorithm
1790 in combined key agreement and derivation operations, as long as the key
1791 agreement algorithm in use matches the algorithm the key was declared with.
1792 This is currently non-standard behaviour, but expected to make it into a
1793 future revision of the PSA Crypto standard.
1794 * Add MBEDTLS_TARGET_PREFIX CMake variable, which is prefixed to the mbedtls,
1795 mbedcrypto, mbedx509 and apidoc CMake target names. This can be used by
1796 external CMake projects that include this one to avoid CMake target name
1797 clashes. The default value of this variable is "", so default target names
1798 are unchanged.
1799 * Add support for DTLS-SRTP as defined in RFC 5764. Contributed by Johan
1800 Pascal, improved by Ron Eldor.
1801 * In the PSA API, it is no longer necessary to open persistent keys:
1802 operations now accept the key identifier. The type psa_key_handle_t is now
1803 identical to psa_key_id_t instead of being platform-defined. This bridges
1804 the last major gap to compliance with the PSA Cryptography specification
1805 version 1.0.0. Opening persistent keys is still supported for backward
1806 compatibility, but will be deprecated and later removed in future
1807 releases.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001808 * PSA_AEAD_NONCE_LENGTH, PSA_AEAD_NONCE_MAX_SIZE, PSA_CIPHER_IV_LENGTH and
1809 PSA_CIPHER_IV_MAX_SIZE macros have been added as defined in version
1810 1.0.0 of the PSA Crypto API specification.

1813 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
1814 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() would write past the minimum documented
1815 size of the output buffer when used with NIST_KW. As a result, code using
1816 those functions as documented with NIST_KW could have a buffer overwrite
1817 of up to 15 bytes, with consequences ranging up to arbitrary code
1818 execution depending on the location of the output buffer.
1819 * Limit the size of calculations performed by mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod to
1820 MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE to prevent a potential denial of service when
1821 generating Diffie-Hellman key pairs. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
1822 * A failure of the random generator was ignored in mbedtls_mpi_fill_random(),
1823 which is how most uses of randomization in asymmetric cryptography
1824 (including key generation, intermediate value randomization and blinding)
1825 are implemented. This could cause failures or the silent use of non-random
1826 values. A random generator can fail if it needs reseeding and cannot not
1827 obtain entropy, or due to an internal failure (which, for Mbed TLS's own
1828 CTR_DRBG or HMAC_DRBG, can only happen due to a misconfiguration).
1829 * Fix a compliance issue whereby we were not checking the tag on the
1830 algorithm parameters (only the size) when comparing the signature in the
1831 description part of the cert to the real signature. This meant that a
1832 NULL algorithm parameters entry would look identical to an array of REAL
1833 (size zero) to the library and thus the certificate would be considered
1834 valid. However, if the parameters do not match in *any* way then the
1835 certificate should be considered invalid, and indeed OpenSSL marks these
1836 certs as invalid when mbedtls did not.
1837 Many thanks to guidovranken who found this issue via differential fuzzing
1838 and reported it in #3629.
1839 * Zeroising of local buffers and variables which are used for calculations
1840 in mbedtls_pkcs5_pbkdf2_hmac(), mbedtls_internal_sha*_process(),
1841 mbedtls_internal_md*_process() and mbedtls_internal_ripemd160_process()
1842 functions to erase sensitive data from memory. Reported by

1845Bugfix
Janos Follath76027f62020-12-09 16:28:35 +00001846 * Fix an invalid (but nonzero) return code from mbedtls_pk_parse_subpubkey()
1847 when the input has trailing garbage. Fixes #2512.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001848 * Fix build failure in configurations where MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is
1849 enabled but ECDSA is disabled. Contributed by jdurkop. Fixes #3294.
1850 * Include the psa_constant_names generated source code in the source tree
1851 instead of generating it at build time. Fixes #3524.
1852 * Fix rsa_prepare_blinding() to retry when the blinding value is not
1853 invertible (mod N), instead of returning MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_RNG_FAILED. This
1854 addresses a regression but is rare in practice (approx. 1 in 2/sqrt(N)).
1855 Found by Synopsys Coverity, fix contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
1856 Fixes #3647.
1857 * Use socklen_t on Android and other POSIX-compliant system
1858 * Fix the build when the macro _GNU_SOURCE is defined to a non-empty value.
1859 Fix #3432.
1860 * Consistently return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT on invalid cipher input
1861 sizes (instead of PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE in some cases) to make the
1862 psa_cipher_* functions compliant with the PSA Crypto API specification.
1863 * mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() now lists Curve25519 and Curve448 under the names
1864 "x25519" and "x448". These curves support ECDH but not ECDSA. If you need
1865 only the curves that support ECDSA, filter the list with
1866 mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do().
1867 * Fix psa_generate_key() returning an error when asked to generate
1868 an ECC key pair on Curve25519 or secp244k1.
1869 * Fix psa_key_derivation_output_key() to allow the output of a combined key
1870 agreement and subsequent key derivation operation to be used as a key
1871 inside of the PSA Crypto core.
1872 * Fix handling of EOF against 0xff bytes and on platforms with unsigned
1873 chars. Fixes a build failure on platforms where char is unsigned. Fixes
1874 #3794.
1875 * Fix an off-by-one error in the additional data length check for
1876 CCM, which allowed encryption with a non-standard length field.
1877 Fixes #3719.
1878 * Correct the default IV size for mbedtls_cipher_info_t structures using
1879 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB to 0, since ECB mode ciphers don't use IVs.
1880 * Make arc4random_buf available on NetBSD and OpenBSD when _POSIX_C_SOURCE is
1881 defined. Fix contributed in #3571.
1882 * Fix conditions for including string.h in error.c. Fixes #3866.
1883 * psa_set_key_id() now also sets the lifetime to persistent for keys located
1884 in a secure element.
1885 * Attempting to create a volatile key with a non-zero key identifier now
1886 fails. Previously the key identifier was just ignored when creating a
1887 volatile key.
1888 * Attempting to create or register a key with a key identifier in the vendor
1889 range now fails.
1890 * Fix build failures on GCC 11. Fixes #3782.
1891 * Add missing arguments of debug message in mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf.
1892 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when the result was negative
1893 (an error condition) and the second operand was aliased to the result.
1894 * Fix a case in elliptic curve arithmetic where an out-of-memory condition
1895 could go undetected, resulting in an incorrect result.
1896 * In CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG, don't reset the reseed interval in seed().
1897 Fixes #2927.
1898 * In PEM writing functions, fill the trailing part of the buffer with null
1899 bytes. This guarantees that the corresponding parsing function can read
1900 the buffer back, which was the case for mbedtls_x509write_{crt,csr}_pem
1901 until this property was inadvertently broken in Mbed TLS 2.19.0.
1902 Fixes #3682.
1903 * Fix a build failure that occurred with the MBEDTLS_AES_SETKEY_DEC_ALT
1904 option on. In this configuration key management methods that are required
1905 for MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_XTS were excluded from the build and made it fail.
1906 Fixes #3818. Reported by John Stroebel.
1907
1908Changes
1909 * Reduce stack usage significantly during sliding window exponentiation.
1910 Reported in #3591 and fix contributed in #3592 by Daniel Otte.
1911 * The PSA persistent storage format is updated to always store the key bits
1912 attribute. No automatic upgrade path is provided. Previously stored keys
1913 must be erased, or manually upgraded based on the key storage format
1914 specification (docs/architecture/mbed-crypto-storage-specification.md).
1915 Fixes #3740.
1916 * Remove the zeroization of a pointer variable in AES rounds. It was valid
1917 but spurious and misleading since it looked like a mistaken attempt to
1918 zeroize the pointed-to buffer. Reported by Antonio de la Piedra, CEA
1919 Leti, France.

1925 group families to psa_ecc_family_t and psa_dh_family_t, in line with the
1926 PSA Crypto API specification version 1.0.0.
Janos Follathc18a7b82020-08-26 14:49:16 +01001927 Rename associated macros as well:

1939 * The new function mbedtls_ecp_write_key() exports private ECC keys back to
1940 a byte buffer. It is the inverse of the existing mbedtls_ecp_read_key().
1941 * Support building on e2k (Elbrus) architecture: correctly enable
1942 -Wformat-signedness, and fix the code that causes signed-one-bit-field
1943 and sign-compare warnings. Contributed by makise-homura (Igor Molchanov)

1947 * Fix a vulnerability in the verification of X.509 certificates when
1948 matching the expected common name (the cn argument of
1949 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()) with the actual certificate name: when the
1950 subjecAltName extension is present, the expected name was compared to any
1951 name in that extension regardless of its type. This means that an
1952 attacker could for example impersonate a 4-bytes or 16-byte domain by
1953 getting a certificate for the corresponding IPv4 or IPv6 (this would
1954 require the attacker to control that IP address, though). Similar attacks
1955 using other subjectAltName name types might be possible. Found and
1956 reported by kFYatek in #3498.
1957 * When checking X.509 CRLs, a certificate was only considered as revoked if
1958 its revocationDate was in the past according to the local clock if
1959 available. In particular, on builds without MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE,
1960 certificates were never considered as revoked. On builds with
1961 MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE, an attacker able to control the local clock (for
1962 example, an untrusted OS attacking a secure enclave) could prevent
1963 revocation of certificates via CRLs. Fixed by no longer checking the
1964 revocationDate field, in accordance with RFC 5280. Reported by
1965 yuemonangong in #3340. Reported independently and fixed by
1966 Raoul Strackx and Jethro Beekman in #3433.
1967 * In (D)TLS record decryption, when using a CBC ciphersuites without the
1968 Encrypt-then-Mac extension, use constant code flow memory access patterns
1969 to extract and check the MAC. This is an improvement to the existing
1970 countermeasure against Lucky 13 attacks. The previous countermeasure was
1971 effective against network-based attackers, but less so against local
1972 attackers. The new countermeasure defends against local attackers, even
1973 if they have access to fine-grained measurements. In particular, this
1974 fixes a local Lucky 13 cache attack found and reported by Tuba Yavuz,
1975 Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihan) Bai, Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler
1976 (University of Florida) and Dave Tian (Purdue University).
1977 * Fix side channel in RSA private key operations and static (finite-field)
1978 Diffie-Hellman. An adversary with precise enough timing and memory access
1979 information (typically an untrusted operating system attacking a secure
1980 enclave) could bypass an existing counter-measure (base blinding) and
1981 potentially fully recover the private key.
1982 * Fix a 1-byte buffer overread in mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_der().
1983 Credit to OSS-Fuzz for detecting the problem and to Philippe Antoine
1984 for pinpointing the problematic code.
1985 * Zeroising of plaintext buffers in mbedtls_ssl_read() to erase unused
1986 application data from memory. Reported in #689 by
1987 Johan Uppman Bruce of Sectra.
1988
1989Bugfix

1991 permission.
Janos Follath6012f0e2020-08-26 15:32:10 +01001992 * Use local labels in mbedtls_padlock_has_support() to fix an invalid symbol
1993 redefinition if the function is inlined.
Janos Follathc18a7b82020-08-26 14:49:16 +01001994 Reported in #3451 and fix contributed in #3452 by okhowang.
1995 * Fix the endianness of Curve25519 keys imported/exported through the PSA
1996 APIs. psa_import_key and psa_export_key will now correctly expect/output
1997 Montgomery keys in little-endian as defined by RFC7748. Contributed by
1998 Steven Cooreman in #3425.
1999 * Fix build errors when the only enabled elliptic curves are Montgomery
2000 curves. Raised by signpainter in #941 and by Taiki-San in #1412. This
2001 also fixes missing declarations reported by Steven Cooreman in #1147.
2002 * Fix self-test failure when the only enabled short Weierstrass elliptic
2003 curve is secp192k1. Fixes #2017.
2004 * PSA key import will now correctly import a Curve25519/Curve448 public key
2005 instead of erroring out. Contributed by Steven Cooreman in #3492.
2006 * Use arc4random_buf on NetBSD instead of rand implementation with cyclical
2007 lower bits. Fix contributed in #3540.
2008 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_md_setup() when using HMAC under low memory
2009 conditions. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #3486.
2010 * Fix bug in redirection of unit test outputs on platforms where stdout is
2011 defined as a macro. First reported in #2311 and fix contributed in #3528.
2012
2013Changes
2014 * Only pass -Wformat-signedness to versions of GCC that support it. Reported
2015 in #3478 and fix contributed in #3479 by okhowang.
2016 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_x509write_csr_der() which
2017 previously could lead to stack overflow on constrained devices.
2018 Contributed by Doru Gucea and Simon Leet in #3464.
2019 * Undefine the ASSERT macro before defining it locally, in case it is defined
2020 in a platform header. Contributed by Abdelatif Guettouche in #3557.
2021 * Update copyright notices to use Linux Foundation guidance. As a result,
2022 the copyright of contributors other than Arm is now acknowledged, and the
2023 years of publishing are no longer tracked in the source files. This also
2024 eliminates the need for the lines declaring the files to be part of
2025 MbedTLS. Fixes #3457.
2026 * Add the command line parameter key_pwd to the ssl_client2 and ssl_server2
2027 example applications which allows to provide a password for the key file
2028 specified through the existing key_file argument. This allows the use of
2029 these applications with password-protected key files. Analogously but for
2030 ssl_server2 only, add the command line parameter key_pwd2 which allows to
2031 set a password for the key file provided through the existing key_file2
2032 argument.

2037 * In the experimental PSA secure element interface, change the encoding of
2038 key lifetimes to encode a persistence level and the location. Although C
2039 prototypes do not effectively change, code calling
2040 psa_register_se_driver() must be modified to pass the driver's location
2041 instead of the keys' lifetime. If the library is upgraded on an existing

2049 ones, but requires a writable buffer. Contributed by Gaurav Aggarwal
2050 in #3176.
2051 * The new utility programs/ssl/ssl_context_info prints a human-readable
2052 dump of an SSL context saved with mbedtls_ssl_context_save().
2053 * Add support for midipix, a POSIX layer for Microsoft Windows.
2054 * Add new mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() routine which allows
2055 parsing unsupported certificate extensions via user provided callback.
2056 Contributed by Nicola Di Lieto <nicola.dilieto@gmail.com> in #3243 as
2057 a solution to #3241.
2058 * Pass the "certificate policies" extension to the callback supplied to
2059 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() if it contains unsupported
2060 policies (#3419).
2061 * Added support to entropy_poll for the kern.arandom syscall supported on

2066 * Fix a side channel vulnerability in modular exponentiation that could
2067 reveal an RSA private key used in a secure enclave. Noticed by Sangho Lee,
2068 Ming-Wei Shih, Prasun Gera, Taesoo Kim and Hyesoon Kim (Georgia Institute
2069 of Technology); and Marcus Peinado (Microsoft Research). Reported by Raoul
2070 Strackx (Fortanix) in #3394.
2071 * Fix side channel in mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv() and
2072 mbedtls_pk_parse_key() / mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile() (when loading a
2073 private key that didn't include the uncompressed public key), as well as
2074 mbedtls_ecp_mul() / mbedtls_ecp_mul_restartable() when called with a NULL
2075 f_rng argument. An attacker with access to precise enough timing and
2076 memory access information (typically an untrusted operating system
2077 attacking a secure enclave) could fully recover the ECC private key.
2078 Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
2079 * Fix issue in Lucky 13 counter-measure that could make it ineffective when
2080 hardware accelerators were used (using one of the MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_ALT
2081 macros). This would cause the original Lucky 13 attack to be possible in
2082 those configurations, allowing an active network attacker to recover
2083 plaintext after repeated timing measurements under some conditions.
2084 Reported and fix suggested by Luc Perneel in #3246.

2087 * Fix the Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration for mbedtls itself.
2088 Completes a previous fix in Mbed TLS 2.19 that only fixed the build for
2089 the example programs. Reported in #1430 and fix contributed by irwir.
2090 * Fix undefined behavior in X.509 certificate parsing if the
2091 pathLenConstraint basic constraint value is equal to INT_MAX.
2092 The actual effect with almost every compiler is the intended
2093 behavior, so this is unlikely to be exploitable anywhere. #3192
2094 * Fix issue with a detected HW accelerated record error not being exposed
2095 due to shadowed variable. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3310.
2096 * Avoid NULL pointer dereferencing if mbedtls_ssl_free() is called with a
2097 NULL pointer argument. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3312.
2098 * Fix potential linker errors on dual world platforms by inlining
2099 mbedtls_gcc_group_to_psa(). This allows the pk.c module to link separately
2100 from psa_crypto.c. Fixes #3300.
2101 * Remove dead code in X.509 certificate parsing. Contributed by irwir in
2102 #2855.
2103 * Include asn1.h in error.c. Fixes #3328 reported by David Hu.
2104 * Fix potential memory leaks in ecp_randomize_jac() and ecp_randomize_mxz()
2105 when PRNG function fails. Contributed by Jonas Lejeune in #3318.
2106 * Remove unused macros from MSVC projects. Reported in #3297 and fix
2107 submitted in #3333 by irwir.
2108 * Add additional bounds checks in ssl_write_client_hello() preventing
2109 output buffer overflow if the configuration declared a buffer that was
2110 too small.
2111 * Set _POSIX_C_SOURCE to at least 200112L in C99 code. Reported in #3420 and
2112 fix submitted in #3421 by Nia Alarie.
2113 * Fix building library/net_sockets.c and the ssl_mail_client program on
2114 NetBSD. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3422.
2115 * Fix false positive uninitialised variable reported by cpp-check.
2116 Contributed by Sander Visser in #3311.
2117 * Update iv and len context pointers manually when reallocating buffers
2118 using the MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH feature. This caused issues
2119 when receiving a connection with CID, when these fields were shifted
2120 in ssl_parse_record_header().

2123 * Fix warnings about signedness issues in format strings. The build is now
2124 clean of -Wformat-signedness warnings. Contributed by Kenneth Soerensen

2126 * Fix minor performance issue in operations on Curve25519 caused by using a
2127 suboptimal modular reduction in one place. Found and fix contributed by
2128 Aurelien Jarno in #3209.
2129 * Combine identical cases in switch statements in md.c. Contributed
2130 by irwir in #3208.
2131 * Simplify a bounds check in ssl_write_certificate_request(). Contributed
2132 by irwir in #3150.
2133 * Unify the example programs termination to call mbedtls_exit() instead of
2134 using a return command. This has been done to enable customization of the
2135 behavior in bare metal environments.
2136 * Fix mbedtls_x509_dn_gets to escape non-ASCII characters as "?".
2137 Contributed by Koh M. Nakagawa in #3326.
2138 * Use FindPython3 when cmake version >= 3.15.0
2139 * Abort the ClientHello writing function as soon as some extension doesn't
2140 fit into the record buffer. Previously, such extensions were silently
2141 dropped. As a consequence, the TLS handshake now fails when the output
2142 buffer is not large enough to hold the ClientHello.
2143 * The unit tests now rely on header files in tests/include/test and source
2144 files in tests/src. When building with make or cmake, the files in
2145 tests/src are compiled and the resulting object linked into each test
2146 executable.
2147 * The ECP module, enabled by `MBEDTLS_ECP_C`, now depends on
2148 `MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_C` or `MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_C` for some side-channel
2149 coutermeasures. If side channels are not a concern, this dependency can
2150 be avoided by enabling the new option `MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG`.

2215 * Fix potential memory overread when performing an ECDSA signature
2216 operation. The overread only happens with cryptographically low
2217 probability (of the order of 2^-n where n is the bitsize of the curve)
2218 unless the RNG is broken, and could result in information disclosure or

2237 a curve family and the key size determines the exact curve (for example,

Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002257 * The initial seeding of a CTR_DRBG instance makes a second call to the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002258 entropy function to obtain entropy for a nonce if the entropy size is less
2259 than 3/2 times the key size. In case you want to disable the extra call to
Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002260 grab entropy, you can call mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len() to force the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002261 nonce length to 0.

2263Security
Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002264 * Enforce that mbedtls_entropy_func() gathers a total of
2265 MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes or more from strong sources. In the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002266 default configuration, on a platform with a single entropy source, the
2267 entropy module formerly only grabbed 32 bytes, which is good enough for
2268 security if the source is genuinely strong, but less than the expected 64
2269 bytes (size of the entropy accumulator).
Gilles Peskinee3b285d2020-01-27 14:01:42 +01002270 * Zeroize local variables in mbedtls_internal_aes_encrypt() and
2271 mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt() before exiting the function. The value of
2272 these variables can be used to recover the last round key. To follow best
2273 practice and to limit the impact of buffer overread vulnerabilities (like
2274 Heartbleed) we need to zeroize them before exiting the function.
2275 Issue reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
2276 Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
2277 Dave Tian (Purdue University).
2278 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA. Our bignum implementation is not
2279 constant time/constant trace, so side channel attacks can retrieve the
2280 blinded value, factor it (as it is smaller than RSA keys and not guaranteed
2281 to have only large prime factors), and then, by brute force, recover the
2282 key. Reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
2283 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA key generation. Obtaining precise
2284 timings on the comparison in the key generation enabled the attacker to
2285 learn leading bits of the ephemeral key used during ECDSA signatures and to
2286 recover the private key. Reported by Jeremy Dubeuf.
2287 * Catch failure of AES functions in mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random(). Uncaught

Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +01002363 * Fix a missing error detection in ECJPAKE. This could have caused a
2364 predictable shared secret if a hardware accelerator failed and the other
2365 side of the key exchange had a similar bug.
Gilles Peskine52157832018-08-11 00:51:04 +02002366 * When writing a private EC key, use a constant size for the private
2367 value, as specified in RFC 5915. Previously, the value was written
2368 as an ASN.1 INTEGER, which caused the size of the key to leak
2369 about 1 bit of information on average and could cause the value to be
2370 1 byte too large for the output buffer.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +00002371 * The deterministic ECDSA calculation reused the scheme's HMAC-DRBG to
2372 implement blinding. Because of this for the same key and message the same
2373 blinding value was generated. This reduced the effectiveness of the

2504 supported.
2505 * List all SAN types in the subject_alt_names field of the certificate.

Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +00002508 in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-05.
2509 The Connection ID extension allows to keep DTLS connections beyond the
Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +00002510 lifetime of the underlying transport by adding a connection identifier
2511 to the DTLS record header. This identifier can be used to associated an
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002512 incoming record with the correct connection data even after the peer has
2513 changed its IP or port. The feature is enabled at compile-time by setting
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +00002514 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (disabled by default), and at run-time
2515 through the new APIs mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid() and mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().

2552 mbedTLS configuration only SHA-2 signed certificates are accepted.
2553 This certificate is used in the demo server programs, which lead the
2554 client programs to fail at the peer's certificate verification
2555 due to an unacceptable hash signature. The certificate has been
2556 updated to one that is SHA-256 signed. Fix contributed by

Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002570 * Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`
2571 which allows copy-less parsing of DER encoded X.509 CRTs,
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +00002572 at the cost of additional lifetime constraints on the input
2573 buffer, but at the benefit of reduced RAM consumption.
2574 * Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() to write ASN.1
2575 named bitstring in DER as required by RFC 5280 Appendix B.
2576 * Add MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES to allow removing 3DES ciphersuites
2577 from the default list (enabled by default). See
2578 https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf.

Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002582 See the Features section for more information.
2583 * Allow to opt in to the removal the API mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
2584 for the benefit of saving RAM, by disabling the new compile-time
2585 option MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE (enabled by default for
2586 API stability). Disabling this option makes mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
2587 always return NULL, and removes the peer_cert field from the
2588 mbedtls_ssl_session structure which otherwise stores the peer's

2591Security
2592 * Make mbedtls_ecdh_get_params return an error if the second key
2593 belongs to a different group from the first. Before, if an application
2594 passed keys that belonged to different group, the first key's data was
2595 interpreted according to the second group, which could lead to either
2596 an error or a meaningless output from mbedtls_ecdh_get_params. In the
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002597 latter case, this could expose at most 5 bits of the private key.

2603 Raised as a comment in #1996.
2604 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() which could
2605 previously lead to a stack overflow on constrained targets.
2606 * Add `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` for the mbedtls_self_test functions
2607 in the header files, which missed the precompilation check. #971
2608 * Fix returning the value 1 when mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey failed.

2618 * Ensure that unused bits are zero when writing ASN.1 bitstrings when using
2619 mbedtls_asn1_write_bitstring().
2620 * Fix issue when writing the named bitstrings in KeyUsage and NsCertType
2621 extensions in CSRs and CRTs that caused these bitstrings to not be encoded
Simon Butcher41f95192018-12-01 18:42:47 +00002622 correctly as trailing zeroes were not accounted for as unused bits in the

2628 * Include configuration file in all header files that use configuration,
2629 instead of relying on other header files that they include.
2630 Inserted as an enhancement for #1371
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05002631 * Add support for alternative CSR headers, as used by Microsoft and defined

2633 * Correct many misspellings. Fixed by MisterDA #2371.
2634 * Provide an abstraction of vsnprintf to allow alternative implementations
2635 for platforms that don't provide it. Based on contributions by Joris Aerts
2636 and Nathaniel Wesley Filardo.
2637 * Fix clobber list in MIPS assembly for large integer multiplication.
2638 Previously, this could lead to functionally incorrect assembly being
2639 produced by some optimizing compilers, showing up as failures in
k-stachowiakc5a4a132019-02-05 09:11:58 +01002640 e.g. RSA or ECC signature operations. Reported in #1722, fix suggested
2641 by Aurelien Jarno and submitted by Jeffrey Martin.
Andres Amaya Garciaaabe52f2018-10-16 22:18:53 +01002642 * Reduce the complexity of the timing tests. They were assuming more than the
2643 underlying OS actually guarantees.
k-stachowiakcddbd012019-02-19 12:40:34 +01002644 * Fix configuration queries in ssl-opt.h. #2030

Andres Amaya Garciaf8dffb32019-02-19 20:14:00 +00002646 * Re-enable certain interoperability tests in ssl-opt.sh which had previously

2652
2653Features
2654 * Add a new config.h option of MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS that enables validation
2655 of parameters in the API. This allows detection of obvious misuses of the
2656 API, such as passing NULL pointers. The API of existing functions hasn't
2657 changed, but requirements on parameters have been made more explicit in
2658 the documentation. See the corresponding API documentation for each
2659 function to see for which parameter values it is defined. This feature is
2660 disabled by default. See its API documentation in config.h for additional
2661 steps you have to take when enabling it.
2662
2663API Changes
2664 * The following functions in the random generator modules have been
2665 deprecated and replaced as shown below. The new functions change
2666 the return type from void to int to allow returning error codes when
2667 using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT for the underlying AES or message digest
2668 primitive. Fixes #1798.
2669 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret()
2670 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret()
2671 * Extend ECDH interface to enable alternative implementations.
2672 * Deprecate error codes of the form MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH for
2673 ARIA, CAMELLIA and Blowfish. These error codes will be replaced by
2674 the more generic per-module error codes MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
2675 * Additional parameter validation checks have been added for the following
2676 modules - AES, ARIA, Blowfish, CAMELLIA, CCM, GCM, DHM, ECP, ECDSA, ECDH,
2677 ECJPAKE, SHA, Chacha20 and Poly1305, cipher, pk, RSA, and MPI.
2678 Where modules have had parameter validation added, existing parameter
2679 checks may have changed. Some modules, such as Chacha20 had existing
2680 parameter validation whereas other modules had little. This has now been
2681 changed so that the same level of validation is present in all modules, and
2682 that it is now optional with the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS flag which by default
2683 is off. That means that checks which were previously present by default
2684 will no longer be.
2685
2686New deprecations
2687 * Deprecate mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update
2688 in favor of functions that can return an error code.
2689
2690Bugfix
2691 * Fix for Clang, which was reporting a warning for the bignum.c inline
2692 assembly for AMD64 targets creating string literals greater than those
2693 permitted by the ISO C99 standard. Found by Aaron Jones. Fixes #482.
2694 * Fix runtime error in `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` when run
2695 through qemu user emulation. Reported and fix suggested by randombit
2696 in #1212. Fixes #1212.
2697 * Fix an unsafe bounds check when restoring an SSL session from a ticket.
2698 This could lead to a buffer overflow, but only in case ticket authentication
2699 was broken. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #659.
2700 * Add explicit integer to enumeration type casts to example program
2701 programs/pkey/gen_key which previously led to compilation failure
2702 on some toolchains. Reported by phoenixmcallister. Fixes #2170.
2703 * Fix double initialization of ECC hardware that made some accelerators
2704 hang.
2705 * Clarify documentation of mbedtls_ssl_set_own_cert() regarding the absence
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05002706 of check for certificate/key matching. Reported by Attila Molnar, #507.

2728Security
2729 * Fix timing variations and memory access variations in RSA PKCS#1 v1.5
2730 decryption that could lead to a Bleichenbacher-style padding oracle
2731 attack. In TLS, this affects servers that accept ciphersuites based on
2732 RSA decryption (i.e. ciphersuites whose name contains RSA but not
2733 (EC)DH(E)). Discovered by Eyal Ronen (Weizmann Institute), Robert Gillham
2734 (University of Adelaide), Daniel Genkin (University of Michigan),
2735 Adi Shamir (Weizmann Institute), David Wong (NCC Group), and Yuval Yarom
2736 (University of Adelaide, Data61). The attack is described in more detail
2737 in the paper available here: http://cat.eyalro.net/cat.pdf CVE-2018-19608
2738 * In mbedtls_mpi_write_binary(), don't leak the exact size of the number
2739 via branching and memory access patterns. An attacker who could submit
2740 a plaintext for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption but only observe the timing
2741 of the decryption and not its result could nonetheless decrypt RSA
2742 plaintexts and forge RSA signatures. Other asymmetric algorithms may
2743 have been similarly vulnerable. Reported by Eyal Ronen, Robert Gillham,
2744 Daniel Genkin, Adi Shamir, David Wong and Yuval Yarom.
2745 * Wipe sensitive buffers on the stack in the CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG
2746 modules.
2747
2748API Changes
2749 * The new functions mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret() and
2750 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret() are similar to mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update()
2751 and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() respectively, but the new functions
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002752 report errors whereas the old functions return void. We recommend that
Simon Butcherc1b98922018-11-19 18:31:40 +00002753 applications use the new functions.

Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002758 * Fix overly strict DN comparison when looking for CRLs belonging to a
2759 particular CA. This previously led to ignoring CRLs when the CRL's issuer
2760 name and the CA's subject name differed in their string encoding (e.g.,
2761 one using PrintableString and the other UTF8String) or in the choice of
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01002762 upper and lower case. Reported by Henrik Andersson of Bosch GmbH in issue
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002763 #1784.
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01002764 * Fix a flawed bounds check in server PSK hint parsing. In case the
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002765 incoming message buffer was placed within the first 64KiB of address
2766 space and a PSK-(EC)DHE ciphersuite was used, this allowed an attacker
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01002767 to trigger a memory access up to 64KiB beyond the incoming message buffer,
2768 potentially leading to an application crash or information disclosure.
2769 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() to use more rounds of probabilistic testing. The
2770 previous settings for the number of rounds made it practical for an
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002771 adversary to construct non-primes that would be erroneously accepted as
2772 primes with high probability. This does not have an impact on the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01002773 security of TLS, but can matter in other contexts with numbers chosen
2774 potentially by an adversary that should be prime and can be validated.
2775 For example, the number of rounds was enough to securely generate RSA key
2776 pairs or Diffie-Hellman parameters, but was insufficient to validate
2777 Diffie-Hellman parameters properly.

Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002781Features
2782 * Add support for temporarily suspending expensive ECC computations after
2783 some configurable amount of operations. This is intended to be used in
2784 constrained, single-threaded systems where ECC is time consuming and can
2785 block other operations until they complete. This is disabled by default,
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +02002786 but can be enabled by MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE at compile time and
2787 configured by mbedtls_ecp_set_max_ops() at runtime. It applies to the new
2788 xxx_restartable functions in ECP, ECDSA, PK and X.509 (CRL not supported
2789 yet), and to existing functions in ECDH and SSL (currently only
Simon Butcher4a865ef2018-10-28 18:00:51 +00002790 implemented client-side, for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphersuites in TLS 1.2,
2791 including client authentication).
2792 * Add support for Arm CPU DSP extensions to accelerate asymmetric key
2793 operations. On CPUs where the extensions are available, they can accelerate
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002794 MPI multiplications used in ECC and RSA cryptography. Contributed by
2795 Aurelien Jarno.
2796 * Extend RSASSA-PSS signature to allow a smaller salt size. Previously, PSS
2797 signature always used a salt with the same length as the hash, and returned
2798 an error if this was not possible. Now the salt size may be up to two bytes
Simon Butcher06d80cf2018-11-06 23:46:04 +00002799 shorter. This allows the library to support all hash and signature sizes
2800 that comply with FIPS 186-4, including SHA-512 with a 1024-bit key.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard823c9152018-07-02 12:05:49 +02002801 * Add support for 128-bit keys in CTR_DRBG. Note that using keys shorter
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +00002802 than 256 bits limits the security of generated material to 128 bits.
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00002803

Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00002814 platform error.
2815 * All module specific generic hardware acceleration errors following the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01002816 form MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED that are deprecated and are replaced
2817 by the equivalent plaform error.
2818 * Deprecate the function mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() in favor of
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +03002819 mbedtls_mpi_is_prime_ext() which allows specifying the number of

2826 Fixes #2069.
Simon Butcher1afc7672018-09-27 11:35:19 +01002827 * Fix a bug in the update function for SSL ticket keys which previously
2828 invalidated keys of a lifetime of less than a 1s. Fixes #1968.
Hanno Beckerf24c3362018-10-17 14:53:05 +01002829 * Fix failure in hmac_drbg in the benchmark sample application, when
2830 MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is defined. Found by TrinityTonic, #1095
2831 * Fix a bug in the record decryption routine ssl_decrypt_buf()
Hanno Becker617a3212018-10-05 09:51:36 +01002832 which lead to accepting properly authenticated but improperly
2833 padded records in case of CBC ciphersuites using Encrypt-then-MAC.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002834 * Fix memory leak and freeing without initialization in the example
2835 program programs/x509/cert_write. Fixes #1422.
Hanno Becker7e1f3be2018-10-15 13:20:28 +01002836 * Ignore IV in mbedtls_cipher_set_iv() when the cipher mode is
2837 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB. Found by ezdevelop. Fixes #1091.
2838 * Zeroize memory used for buffering or reassembling handshake messages
2839 after use.
Hanno Beckerf143a782018-11-06 17:43:16 +00002840 * Use `mbedtls_platform_zeroize()` instead of `memset()` for zeroization
2841 of sensitive data in the example programs aescrypt2 and crypt_and_hash.
2842 * Change the default string format used for various X.509 DN attributes to
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002843 UTF8String. Previously, the use of the PrintableString format led to
2844 wildcards and non-ASCII characters being unusable in some DN attributes.

Gilles Peskine604ccc62018-07-10 15:55:52 +02002853 * Removed support for Yotta as a build tool.
2854 * Add tests for session resumption in DTLS.
2855 * Close a test gap in (D)TLS between the client side and the server side:
Simon Butcherddc9e262018-10-27 18:27:41 +01002856 test the handling of large packets and small packets on the client side
2857 in the same way as on the server side.
Simon Butcher404aa652018-10-01 14:44:22 +01002858 * Change the dtls_client and dtls_server samples to work by default over
2859 IPv6 and optionally by a build option over IPv4.
2860 * Change the use of Windows threading to use Microsoft Visual C++ runtime
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002861 calls, rather than Win32 API calls directly. This is necessary to avoid
2862 conflict with C runtime usage. Found and fixed by irwir.
2863 * Remember the string format of X.509 DN attributes when replicating
2864 X.509 DNs. Previously, DN attributes were always written in their default
2865 string format (mostly PrintableString), which could lead to CRTs being
2866 created which used PrintableStrings in the issuer field even though the
2867 signing CA used UTF8Strings in its subject field; while X.509 compliant,
2868 such CRTs were rejected in some applications, e.g. some versions of
Hanno Becker0bb204c2018-10-30 10:08:33 +00002869 Firefox, curl and GnuTLS. Reported in #1033 by Moschn. Fix contributed by

Janos Follath33329372018-09-06 10:41:33 +01002871 * Improve documentation of mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result().
2872 Fixes #517 reported by github-monoculture.
2873 * Add MBEDTLS_MPI_GEN_PRIME_FLAG_LOW_ERR flag to mbedtls_mpi_gen_prime() and
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +01002874 use it to reduce error probability in RSA key generation to levels mandated

2932 * Fix a bug that caused SSL/TLS clients to incorrectly abort the handshake
2933 with TLS versions 1.1 and earlier when the server requested authentication
2934 without providing a list of CAs. This was due to an overly strict bounds
Hanno Becker44814642018-08-03 09:53:48 +01002935 check in parsing the CertificateRequest message,

2960Security
2961 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC and using SHA-384,
2962 in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed an active network attacker to
2963 partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions by
2964 exploiting timing measurements. With DTLS, the attacker could perform
2965 this recovery by sending many messages in the same connection. With TLS
2966 or if mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only
2967 worked if the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly
2968 sent over connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM
2969 or CCM instead of CBC, using hash sizes other than SHA-384, or using
2970 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. The vulnerability was
2971 caused by a miscalculation (for SHA-384) in a countermeasure to the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cc1fb02018-06-28 12:10:27 +02002972 original Lucky 13 attack. Found by Kenny Paterson, Eyal Ronen and Adi
2973 Shamir.
2974 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC, in (D)TLS 1.0 to
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard830ce112018-07-11 18:27:08 +02002975 1.2, that allowed a local attacker, able to execute code on the local
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01002976 machine as well as manipulate network packets, to partially recover the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard830ce112018-07-11 18:27:08 +02002977 plaintext of messages under some conditions by using a cache attack
2978 targeting an internal MD/SHA buffer. With TLS or if
2979 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only worked if
2980 the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly sent over
2981 connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM or CCM
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard7b420302018-06-28 10:38:35 +02002982 instead of CBC or using Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected.
2983 Found by Kenny Paterson, Eyal Ronen and Adi Shamir.
2984 * Add a counter-measure against a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based
2985 on CBC, in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed a local attacker, able to
2986 execute code on the local machine as well as manipulate network packets,
2987 to partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions (see
2988 previous entry) by using a cache attack targeting the SSL input record
2989 buffer. Connections using GCM or CCM instead of CBC or using
Gilles Peskine104d8582018-06-27 10:57:33 +02002990 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. Found by Kenny Paterson,

2999 Contributed by Augustin Cavalier.
3000 * Make the receive and transmit buffers independent sizes, for situations
3001 where the outgoing buffer can be fixed at a smaller size than the incoming
3002 buffer, which can save some RAM. If buffer lengths are kept equal, there

Simon Butcherecb635e2018-07-24 10:03:41 +01003027 * Fix namespacing in header files. Remove the `mbedtls` namespacing in
3028 the `#include` in the header files. Resolves #857
3029 * Fix compiler warning of 'use before initialisation' in
Simon Butcher05330542018-07-24 12:54:15 +01003030 mbedtls_pk_parse_key(). Found by Martin Boye Petersen and fixed by Dawid
3031 Drozd. #1098
3032 * Fix decryption for zero length messages (which contain all padding) when a
3033 CBC based ciphersuite is used together with Encrypt-then-MAC. Previously,
3034 such a message was wrongly reported as an invalid record and therefore lead
3035 to the connection being terminated. Seen most often with OpenSSL using
Andres Amaya Garcia81f06332018-07-04 10:01:39 +01003036 TLS 1.0. Reported by @kFYatek and by Conor Murphy on the forum. Fix

3038 * Fix ssl_client2 example to send application data with 0-length content
Simon Butcherf11a7cd2018-07-25 17:26:56 +01003039 when the request_size argument is set to 0 as stated in the documentation.
3040 Fixes #1833.
Simon Butcher2c929492018-07-24 17:20:17 +01003041 * Correct the documentation for `mbedtls_ssl_get_session()`. This API has
Simon Butcher9e02b972018-06-28 11:56:57 +01003042 deep copy of the session, and the peer certificate is not lost. Fixes #926.

3067 * In TLS servers, support offloading private key operations to an external
Simon Butcherebe23ed2018-06-12 16:46:45 +01003068 cryptoprocessor. Private key operations can be asynchronous to allow
Simon Butcher601144e2018-06-12 17:04:58 +01003069 non-blocking operation of the TLS server stack.

3092API Changes
3093 * Extend the platform module with a util component that contains
3094 functionality shared by multiple Mbed TLS modules. At this stage
3095 platform_util.h (and its associated platform_util.c) only contain
3096 mbedtls_platform_zeroize(), which is a critical function from a security
3097 point of view. mbedtls_platform_zeroize() needs to be regularly tested
3098 against compilers to ensure that calls to it are not removed from the
3099 output binary as part of redundant code elimination optimizations.
Hanno Becker2bd57572018-03-28 14:52:35 +01003100 Therefore, mbedtls_platform_zeroize() is moved to the platform module to

3114Security
3115 * Fix an issue in the X.509 module which could lead to a buffer overread
3116 during certificate validation. Additionally, the issue could also lead to
3117 unnecessary callback checks being made or to some validation checks to be
3118 omitted. The overread could be triggered remotely, while the other issues
3119 would require a non DER-compliant certificate to be correctly signed by a
3120 trusted CA, or a trusted CA with a non DER-compliant certificate. Found by
3121 luocm. Fixes #825.
3122 * Fix the buffer length assertion in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
3123 function which led to an arbitrary overread of the message buffer. The
3124 overreads could be caused by receiving a malformed message at the point
3125 where an optional signature algorithms list is expected when the signature
Andrzej Kurekb7a18c02018-04-25 05:25:30 -04003126 algorithms section is too short. In builds with debug output, the overread
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003127 data is output with the debug data.
3128 * Fix a client-side bug in the validation of the server's ciphersuite choice
3129 which could potentially lead to the client accepting a ciphersuite it didn't
3130 offer or a ciphersuite that cannot be used with the TLS or DTLS version
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +01003131 chosen by the server. This could lead to corruption of internal data

Jethro Beekmancb122372018-04-11 08:40:38 -07003166 * Fix parsing of PKCS#8 encoded Elliptic Curve keys. Previously Mbed TLS was
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003167 unable to parse keys which had only the optional parameters field of the
3168 ECPrivateKey structure. Found by Jethro Beekman, fixed in #1379.
3169 * Return the plaintext data more quickly on unpadded CBC decryption, as

3173 a file in pk_sign program. Found by kevlut in #1142.
3174 * Restrict usage of error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ to situations
3175 where data needs to be fetched from the underlying transport in order
3176 to make progress. Previously, this error code was also occasionally
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003177 returned when unexpected messages were being discarded, ignoring that
3178 further messages could potentially already be pending to be processed
Gilles Peskinef2b76cd2018-04-19 17:41:39 +02003179 in the internal buffers; these cases led to deadlocks when event-driven
3180 I/O was used. Found and reported by Hubert Mis in #772.
3181 * Fix buffer length assertions in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
Andrzej Kurek5462e022018-04-20 07:58:53 -04003182 function which leads to a potential one byte overread of the message
3183 buffer.

3185 decompression.
3186 * Fix the soversion of libmbedcrypto to match the soversion of the
3187 maintained 2.7 branch. The soversion was increased in Mbed TLS
Gilles Peskine08185402018-03-22 21:50:48 +01003188 version 2.7.1 to reflect breaking changes in that release, but the

Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003199 configurations where the feature is disabled. Found and fixed by Gergely
3200 Budai.
3201 * Harden the function mbedtls_ssl_config_free() against misuse, so that it
3202 doesn't leak memory if the user doesn't use mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk() and
Andres Amaya Garciacb47a792018-03-27 21:19:50 +01003203 instead incorrectly manipulates the configuration structure directly.
3204 Found and fix submitted by junyeonLEE in #1220.
3205 * Provide an empty implementation of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() when
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfff308e2018-03-28 11:13:05 +02003206 MBEDTLS_ASN1_PARSE_C is not enabled. This allows the use of PBKDF2
3207 without PBES2. Fixed by Marcos Del Sol Vives.
3208 * Add the order of the base point as N in the mbedtls_ecp_group structure
Jaeden Amero4ba87fc2018-03-29 11:01:38 +01003209 for Curve25519 (other curves had it already). Contributed by Nicholas

Andres Amaya Garciad1b17882018-03-27 19:14:24 +01003214 Paul Sokolovsky in #1356.
3215 * Add an option in the Makefile to support ar utilities where the operation
Andres Amaya Garciaea5a8a42018-03-25 23:57:09 +01003216 letter must not be prefixed by '-', such as LLVM. Found and fixed by

Gilles Peskinea09453f2018-04-04 09:14:12 +02003220 * Optimize unnecessary zeroing in mbedtls_mpi_copy. Based on a contribution
3221 by Alexey Skalozub in #405.
3222 * In the SSL module, when f_send, f_recv or f_recv_timeout report
Gilles Peskinec96ccf42018-03-31 22:57:03 +02003223 transmitting more than the required length, return an error. Raised by
3224 Sam O'Connor in #1245.
3225 * Improve robustness of mbedtls_ssl_derive_keys against the use of
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003226 HMAC functions with non-HMAC ciphersuites. Independently contributed

Gilles Peskine81021ca2018-04-19 20:59:06 +02003228 * Improve security of RSA key generation by including criteria from
3229 FIPS 186-4. Contributed by Jethro Beekman. #1380
3230 * Declare functions in header files even when an alternative implementation
3231 of the corresponding module is activated by defining the corresponding
3232 MBEDTLS_XXX_ALT macro. This means that alternative implementations do
Andrzej Kurekaca09c72018-04-13 05:18:08 -04003233 not need to copy the declarations, and ensures that they will have the

Thomas Daubneyd596e992021-06-18 11:50:56 +01003239Default behavior changes
3240 * The truncated HMAC extension now conforms to RFC 6066. This means
3241 that when both sides of a TLS connection negotiate the truncated
3242 HMAC extension, Mbed TLS can now interoperate with other
3243 compliant implementations, but this breaks interoperability with
3244 prior versions of Mbed TLS. To restore the old behavior, enable
3245 the (deprecated) option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT in
3246 config.h. Found by Andreas Walz (ivESK, Offenburg University of
3247 Applied Sciences).

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003321 * Fix a heap corruption issue in the implementation of the truncated HMAC
3322 extension. When the truncated HMAC extension is enabled and CBC is used,
3323 sending a malicious application packet could be used to selectively corrupt
3324 6 bytes on the peer's heap, which could potentially lead to crash or remote
3325 code execution. The issue could be triggered remotely from either side in
3326 both TLS and DTLS. CVE-2018-0488
3327 * Fix a buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the hash was too large
3328 for the key size, which could potentially lead to crash or remote code
3329 execution. Found by Seth Terashima, Qualcomm Product Security Initiative,
3330 Qualcomm Technologies Inc. CVE-2018-0487
3331 * Fix buffer overflow in RSA-PSS verification when the unmasked data is all
3332 zeros.
3333 * Fix an unsafe bounds check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity() when adding
3334 64 KiB to the address of the SSL buffer and causing a wrap around.
3335 * Fix a potential heap buffer overflow in mbedtls_ssl_write(). When the (by
Hanno Becker930025d2017-09-18 16:07:19 +01003336 default enabled) maximum fragment length extension is disabled in the
3337 config and the application data buffer passed to mbedtls_ssl_write
3338 is larger than the internal message buffer (16384 bytes by default), the
3339 latter overflows. The exploitability of this issue depends on whether the
3340 application layer can be forced into sending such large packets. The issue
3341 was independently reported by Tim Nordell via e-mail and by Florin Petriuc
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003342 and sjorsdewit on GitHub. Fix proposed by Florin Petriuc in #1022.

3349 being leaked to memory after release.
Janos Follathb174c842017-09-20 16:26:04 +01003350 * Fix dhm_check_range() failing to detect trivial subgroups and potentially
3351 leaking 1 bit of the private key. Reported by prashantkspatil.
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003352 * Make mbedtls_mpi_read_binary() constant-time with respect to the input

3354 sake of saving memory, but potentially leading to slight timing
3355 differences. Reported by Marco Macchetti, Kudelski Group.

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003394 mbedtls_rsa_import() and mbedtls_rsa_complete() are introduced for setting
Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +00003395 up RSA contexts from partial key material and having them completed to the

3397 contexts from keys consisting of N,D,E only, even if P,Q are needed for the
3398 purpose or CRT and/or blinding.

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003412 (e.g. signing with a public key).
Andres Amaya Garciaf569f702017-06-28 09:25:10 +01003413 * Direct manipulation of structure fields of RSA contexts is deprecated.
3414 Users are advised to use the extended RSA API instead.
Jaeden Amero005239e2018-01-25 14:47:39 +00003415 * Deprecate usage of message digest functions that return void
3416 (mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts, mbedtls_<MODULE>_update,
3417 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish and mbedtls_<MODULE>_process where <MODULE> is
3418 any of MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) in favor of functions
3419 that can return an error code.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01003420 * Deprecate untrustworthy DHE parameters from RFC 5114. Superseded by
3421 parameters from RFC 3526 or the newly added parameters from RFC 7919.
3422 * Deprecate hex string DHE constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P etc.
3423 Supserseded by binary encoded constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P_BIN

Gilles Peskine0a969102018-01-22 14:55:20 +01003510 * Update all internal usage of deprecated message digest functions to the
3511 new ones with return codes. In particular, this modifies the
3512 mbedtls_md_info_t structure. Propagate errors from these functions
3513 everywhere except some locations in the ssl_tls.c module.
Jaeden Amero791e08a2018-01-26 12:04:12 +00003514 * Improve CTR_DRBG error handling by propagating underlying AES errors.

Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01003659 * Add hardware acceleration support for the Elliptic Curve Point module.
3660 This involved exposing parts of the internal interface to enable
3661 replacing the core functions and adding and alternative, module level
3662 replacement support for enabling the extension of the interface.
Janos Follath7a8a0902017-04-10 16:13:06 +01003663 * Add a new configuration option to 'mbedtls_ssl_config' to enable
3664 suppressing the CA list in Certificate Request messages. The default
3665 behaviour has not changed, namely every configured CAs name is included.
3666
Andres AGf5bf7182017-03-03 14:09:56 +00003667API Changes
3668 * The following functions in the AES module have been deprecated and replaced
3669 by the functions shown below. The new functions change the return type from
3670 void to int to allow returning error codes when using MBEDTLS_AES_ALT,
3671 MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT or MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT.
3672 mbedtls_aes_decrypt() -> mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt()

3679 initialising. Found by sznaider. #667 #843
3680 * Add checks in the PK module for the RSA functions on 64-bit systems.
3681 The PK and RSA modules use different types for passing hash length and
3682 without these checks the type cast could lead to data loss. Found by Guido
3683 Vranken.

Simon Butcherb65c2be2017-03-10 18:50:44 +00003688 * Add checks to prevent signature forgeries for very large messages while
3689 using RSA through the PK module in 64-bit systems. The issue was caused by
3690 some data loss when casting a size_t to an unsigned int value in the
3691 functions rsa_verify_wrap(), rsa_sign_wrap(), rsa_alt_sign_wrap() and
3692 mbedtls_pk_sign(). Found by Jean-Philippe Aumasson.

3694 mbedtls_x509_crl_parse(). A string containing a CRL followed by trailing
3695 characters after the footer could result in the execution of an infinite
3696 loop. The issue can be triggered remotely. Found by Greg Zaverucha,
3697 Microsoft.
Janos Follath182013f2016-10-25 10:50:22 +01003698 * Removed MD5 from the allowed hash algorithms for CertificateRequest and
3699 CertificateVerify messages, to prevent SLOTH attacks against TLS 1.2.

Janos Follath7dadc2f2017-01-27 16:05:20 +00003701 * Fixed a bug that caused freeing a buffer that was allocated on the stack,
3702 when verifying the validity of a key on secp224k1. This could be
3703 triggered remotely for example with a maliciously constructed certificate
Simon Butcher71e9d582017-02-28 18:47:27 +00003704 and potentially could lead to remote code execution on some platforms.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88d37852015-06-17 14:26:49 +02004087Features
4088 * Support for DTLS 1.0 and 1.2 (RFC 6347).
4089 * Ability to override core functions from MDx, SHAx, AES and DES modules
4090 with custom implementation (eg hardware accelerated), complementing the
4091 ability to override the whole module.
4092 * New server-side implementation of session tickets that rotate keys to
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard4d7fbbf2014-10-15 15:40:55 +02004093 preserve forward secrecy, and allows sharing across multiple contexts.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02004094 * Added a concept of X.509 cerificate verification profile that controls
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda25ffc32015-06-25 12:01:16 +02004095 which algorithms and key sizes (curves for ECDSA) are acceptable.
4096 * Expanded configurability of security parameters in the SSL module with
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02004097 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dhm_min_bitlen() and mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6e088f92015-05-06 17:53:08 +01004098 * Introduced a concept of presets for SSL security-relevant configuration
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02004099 parameters.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard797f48a2015-06-18 15:45:05 +02004102 * The library has been split into libmbedcrypto, libmbedx509, libmbedtls.
4103 You now need to link to all of them if you use TLS for example.
4104 * All public identifiers moved to the mbedtls_* or MBEDTLS_* namespace.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02004105 Some names have been further changed to make them more consistent.
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01004106 Migration helpers scripts/rename.pl and include/mbedtls/compat-1.3.h are
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02004107 provided. Full list of renamings in scripts/data_files/rename-1.3-2.0.txt
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6bdc442014-09-17 11:34:57 +02004108 * Renamings of fields inside structures, not covered by the previous list:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02004109 mbedtls_cipher_info_t.key_length -> key_bitlen
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02004110 mbedtls_cipher_context_t.key_length -> key_bitlen

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard41d479e2015-04-29 00:48:22 +02004112 * Headers are now found in the 'mbedtls' directory (previously 'polarssl').
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02004113 * The following _init() functions that could return errors have
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc34e8dd2015-04-28 21:42:17 +02004114 been split into an _init() that returns void and another function that
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02004115 should generally be the first function called on this context after init:
4116 mbedtls_ssl_init() -> mbedtls_ssl_setup()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02004117 mbedtls_ccm_init() -> mbedtls_ccm_setkey()

Tillmann Karras588ad502015-09-25 04:27:22 +02004121 Note that for mbedtls_ssl_setup(), you need to be done setting up the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02004122 ssl_config structure before calling it.
4123 * Most ssl_set_xxx() functions (all except ssl_set_bio(), ssl_set_hostname(),
4124 ssl_set_session() and ssl_set_client_transport_id(), plus
4125 ssl_legacy_renegotiation()) have been renamed to mbedtls_ssl_conf_xxx()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9a1a4d62015-05-11 10:35:53 +02004126 (see rename.pl and compat-1.3.h above) and their first argument's type
4127 changed from ssl_context to ssl_config.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004128 * ssl_set_bio() changed signature (contexts merged, order switched, one
4129 additional callback for read-with-timeout).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard9a1a4d62015-05-11 10:35:53 +02004130 * The following functions have been introduced and must be used in callback
4131 implementations (SNI, PSK) instead of their *conf counterparts:
4132 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_own_cert()
4133 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ca_chain()
4134 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02004135 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_ca_chain() lost its last argument (peer_cn), now set
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc2b7712015-05-06 11:14:19 +01004136 using mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004137 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_cache() changed prototype (only one context
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5cb33082015-05-06 18:06:26 +01004138 pointer, parameters reordered).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard866eb472015-05-25 19:41:37 +02004139 * On server, mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets_cb() must now be used in
4140 place of mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets() to enable session tickets.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardfd474232015-06-23 16:34:24 +02004141 * The SSL debug callback gained two new arguments (file name, line number).
4142 * Debug modes were removed.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004143 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_truncated_hmac() now returns void.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004144 * mbedtls_memory_buffer_alloc_init() now returns void.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02004145 * X.509 verification flags are now an uint32_t. Affect the signature of:
4146 mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result()
4147 mbedtls_x509_ctr_verify_info()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004148 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (flags, f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)

4153 mbedtls_base64_decode()
4154 mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
4155 mbedtls_dhm_calc_secret()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard91895852015-06-30 13:34:45 +02004156 * In the NET module, all "int" and "int *" arguments for file descriptors
4157 changed type to "mbedtls_net_context *".
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0b104b02015-05-14 21:52:40 +02004158 * net_accept() gained new arguments for the size of the client_ip buffer.

4165 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_key_usage() changed from int to unsigned.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda958d692015-03-27 10:23:53 +01004166 * test_ca_list (from certs.h) is renamed to test_cas_pem and is only
4167 available if POLARSSL_PEM_PARSE_C is defined (it never worked without).
4168 * Test certificates in certs.c are no longer guaranteed to be nul-terminated
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard75f90102015-03-27 09:56:18 +01004169 strings; use the new *_len variables instead of strlen().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard43b37cb2015-05-12 11:20:10 +02004170 * Functions mbedtls_x509_xxx_parse(), mbedtls_pk_parse_key(),
4171 mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() and mbedtls_dhm_parse_dhm() now expect the

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1b8de572015-05-27 16:49:37 +02004176 (Thanks to Mansour Moufid for helping with the replacement.)
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard88bdb0b2015-03-10 14:02:33 +00004177 * Change SSL_DISABLE_RENEGOTIATION config.h flag to SSL_RENEGOTIATION
4178 (support for renegotiation now needs explicit enabling in config.h).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard60c793b2015-06-18 20:52:58 +02004179 * Split MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME into MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME and MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE
4180 in config.h

4191 (use generic functions from md.h)
4192 * Removed mbedtls_timing_msleep(). Use mbedtls_net_usleep() or a custom
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda63bc942015-05-14 18:22:47 +02004193 waiting function.

4199 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_LONGLONG was removed (now always on).
4200 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_INT8 and POLARSSL_HAVE_INT16 have
4201 been removed (compiler is required to support 32-bit operations).
4202 * Configuration option POLARSSL_HAVE_IPV6 was removed (always enabled).
4203 * Removed test program o_p_test, the script compat.sh does more.
4204 * Removed test program ssl_test, superseded by ssl-opt.sh.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard348bcb32015-03-31 14:01:33 +02004229 * Support for RSA_ALT contexts in the PK layer is now optional. Since is is
4230 enabled in the default configuration, this is only noticeable if using a
4231 custom config.h
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1028b742015-05-06 17:33:07 +01004232 * Default DHM parameters server-side upgraded from 1024 to 2048 bits.

4250 new prototype, and mbedtls_ssl_set_read_timeout().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004251 * The following functions now return void:
4252 mbedtls_ssl_conf_transport()

4254 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0c890352015-05-13 10:28:41 +02004255 * DTLS no longer hard-depends on TIMING_C, but uses a callback interface
4256 instead, see mbedtls_ssl_set_timer_cb(), with the Timing module providing
4257 an example implementation, see mbedtls_timing_delay_context and
4258 mbedtls_timing_set/get_delay().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardabc729e2015-07-01 01:28:24 +02004259 * With UDP sockets, it is no longer necessary to call net_bind() again
4260 after a successful net_accept().
