Minos Galanakis974388f2023-10-03 22:07:22 +01003= Mbed TLS 3.5.0 branch released 2023-10-05
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +01004
5API changes
6 * Mbed TLS 3.4 introduced support for omitting the built-in implementation
7 of ECDSA and/or EC J-PAKE when those are provided by a driver. However,
8 their was a flaw in the logic checking if the built-in implementation, in
9 that if failed to check if all the relevant curves were supported by the
10 accelerator. As a result, it was possible to declare no curves as
11 accelerated and still have the built-in implementation compiled out.
12 Starting with this release, it is necessary to declare which curves are
13 accelerated (using MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_ECC_xxx macros), or they will be
14 considered not accelerated, and the built-in implementation of the curves
15 and any algorithm possible using them will be included in the build.
16 * Add new millisecond time type `mbedtls_ms_time_t` and `mbedtls_ms_time()`
17 function, needed for TLS 1.3 ticket lifetimes. Alternative implementations
18 can be created using an ALT interface.
19
20Requirement changes
21 * Officially require Python 3.8 now that earlier versions are out of support.
22 * Minimum required Windows version is now Windows Vista, or
23 Windows Server 2008.
24
25New deprecations
26 * PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR and
27 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR, where xxx is either ECC or RSA,
28 are now being deprecated in favor of PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
29 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy. Here yyy can be: BASIC,
30 IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE. The goal is to have a finer detail about
31 the capabilities of the PSA side for either key.
32 * MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX is deprecated in favor of
33 MBEDTLS_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH (if you intended what the name suggests:
34 maximum size of any supported block cipher) or the new name
35 MBEDTLS_CMAC_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE (if you intended the actual semantics:
36 maximum size of a block cipher supported by the CMAC module).
37 * mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() and mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() functions are now
38 deprecated in favor of mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() and
39 mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext() as they offer more security by checking
40 for overflow of the output buffer and reporting the actual length
41 of the output.
42
43Features
44 * All modules that use hashes or HMAC can now take advantage of PSA Crypto
45 drivers when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is enabled and psa_crypto_init() has
46 been called. Previously (in 3.3), this was restricted to a few modules,
47 and only in builds where MBEDTLS_MD_C was disabled; in particular the
48 entropy module was not covered which meant an external RNG had to be
49 provided - these limitations are lifted in this version. A new set of
50 feature macros, MBEDTLS_MD_CAN_xxx, has been introduced that can be used
51 to check for availability of hash algorithms, regardless of whether
52 they're provided by a built-in implementation, a driver or both. See
53 docs/driver-only-builds.md.
54 * When a PSA driver for ECDH is present, it is now possible to disable
55 MBEDTLS_ECDH_C in the build in order to save code size. For TLS 1.2
56 key exchanges based on ECDH(E) to work, this requires
57 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO. Restartable/interruptible ECDHE operations in
58 TLS 1.2 (ECDHE-ECDSA key exchange) are not supported in those builds yet,
59 as PSA does not have an API for restartable ECDH yet.
60 * When all of ECDH, ECDSA and EC J-PAKE are either disabled or provided by
61 a driver, it is possible to disable MBEDTLS_ECP_C (and MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C
62 if not required by another module) and still get support for ECC keys and
63 algorithms in PSA, with some limitations. See docs/driver-only-builds.txt
64 for details.
65 * Add parsing of directoryName subtype for subjectAltName extension in
66 x509 certificates.
67 * Add support for server-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
68 TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled, the TLS server now selects TLS 1.2 or
69 TLS 1.3 depending on the capabilities and preferences of TLS clients.
70 Fixes #6867.
71 * X.509 hostname verification now supports IPAddress Subject Alternate Names.
72 * Add support for reading and writing X25519 and X448
73 public and private keys in RFC 8410 format using the existing PK APIs.
74 * When parsing X.509 certificates, support the extensions
75 SignatureKeyIdentifier and AuthorityKeyIdentifier.
76 * Don't include the PSA dispatch functions for PAKEs (psa_pake_setup() etc)
77 if no PAKE algorithms are requested
78 * Add support for the FFDH algorithm and DH key types in PSA, with
79 parameters from RFC 7919. This includes a built-in implementation based
80 on MBEDTLS_BIGNUM_C, and a driver dispatch layer enabling alternative
81 implementations of FFDH through the driver entry points.
82 * It is now possible to generate certificates with SubjectAltNames.
83 Currently supported subtypes: DnsName, UniformResourceIdentifier,
84 IP address, OtherName, and DirectoryName, as defined in RFC 5280.
85 See mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_subject_alternative_name for
86 more information.
87 * X.509 hostname verification now partially supports URI Subject Alternate
88 Names. Only exact matching, without any normalization procedures
89 described in 7.4 of RFC5280, will result in a positive URI verification.
90 * Add function mbedtls_oid_from_numeric_string() to parse an OID from a
91 string to a DER-encoded mbedtls_asn1_buf.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +010092 * Add SHA-3 family hash functions.
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +010093 * Add support to restrict AES to 128-bit keys in order to save code size.
94 A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AES_ONLY_128_BIT_KEY_LENGTH, can be
95 used to enable this feature.
96 * AES performance improvements. Uplift varies by platform,
97 toolchain, optimisation flags and mode.
98 Aarch64, gcc -Os and CCM, GCM and XTS benefit the most.
99 On Aarch64, uplift is typically around 20 - 110%.
100 When compiling with gcc -Os on Aarch64, AES-XTS improves
101 by 4.5x.
102 * Add support for PBKDF2-HMAC through the PSA API.
103 * New symbols PSA_WANT_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy and
104 MBEDTLS_PSA_ACCEL_KEY_TYPE_xxx_KEY_PAIR_yyy (where xxx is either ECC, RSA
105 or DH) were introduced in order to have finer accuracy in defining the
106 PSA capabilities for each key. These capabilities, named yyy above, can be
107 any of: BASIC, IMPORT, EXPORT, GENERATE, DERIVE.
108 - DERIVE is only available for ECC keys, not for RSA or DH ones.
109 - implementations are free to enable more than what it was strictly
110 requested. For example BASIC internally enables IMPORT and EXPORT
111 (useful for testing purposes), but this might change in the future.
112 * Add support for FFDH key exchange in TLS 1.3.
113 This is automatically enabled as soon as PSA_WANT_ALG_FFDH
114 and the ephemeral or psk-ephemeral key exchange mode are enabled.
115 By default, all groups are offered; the list of groups can be
116 configured using the existing API function mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups().
117 * Improve mbedtls_x509_time performance and reduce memory use.
118 * Reduce syscalls to time() during certificate verification.
119 * Allow MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE and MBEDTLS_USER_CONFIG_FILE to be set by
120 setting the CMake variable of the same name at configuration time.
121 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_cache_get_timeout()) to access
122 `mbedtls_ssl_cache_context.timeout`.
123 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_get_hostname()) to access
124 `mbedtls_ssl_context.hostname`.
125 * Add getter (mbedtls_ssl_conf_get_endpoint()) to access
126 `mbedtls_ssl_config.endpoint`.
127 * Support for "opaque" (PSA-held) ECC keys in the PK module has been
128 extended: it is now possible to use mbedtls_pk_write_key_der(),
129 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(), and
130 mbedtls_pk_verify() with opaque ECC keys (provided the PSA attributes
131 allow it).
132 * The documentation of mbedtls_ecp_group now describes the optimized
133 representation of A for some curves. Fixes #8045.
134 * Add a possibility to generate CSR's with RCF822 and directoryName subtype
135 of subjectAltName extension in x509 certificates.
136 * Add support for PBKDF2-CMAC through the PSA API.
137 * New configuration option MBEDTLS_AES_USE_HARDWARE_ONLY introduced. When
138 using CPU-accelerated AES (e.g., Arm Crypto Extensions), this option
139 disables the plain C implementation and the run-time detection for the
140 CPU feature, which reduces code size and avoids the vulnerability of the
141 plain C implementation.
142 * Accept arbitrary AttributeType and AttributeValue in certificate
143 Distinguished Names using RFC 4514 syntax.
144 * Applications using ECC over secp256r1 through the PSA API can use a
145 new implementation with a much smaller footprint, but some minor
146 usage restrictions. See the documentation of the new configuration
147 option MBEDTLS_PSA_P256M_DRIVER_ENABLED for details.
148
149Security
150 * Fix a case where potentially sensitive information held in memory would not
151 be completely zeroized during TLS 1.2 handshake, in both server and client
152 configurations.
153 * In configurations with ARIA or Camellia but not AES, the value of
154 MBEDTLS_CIPHER_BLKSIZE_MAX was 8, rather than 16 as the name might
155 suggest. This did not affect any library code, because this macro was
156 only used in relation with CMAC which does not support these ciphers.
157 This may affect application code that uses this macro.
158 * Developers using mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe() should
159 review the size of the output buffer passed to this function, and note
160 that the output after decryption may include CBC padding. Consider moving
161 to the new functions mbedtls_pkcs5_pbes2_ext() or mbedtls_pkcs12_pbe_ext()
162 which checks for overflow of the output buffer and reports the actual
163 length of the output.
164 * Improve padding calculations in CBC decryption, NIST key unwrapping and
165 RSA OAEP decryption. With the previous implementation, some compilers
166 (notably recent versions of Clang and IAR) could produce non-constant
167 time code, which could allow a padding oracle attack if the attacker
168 has access to precise timing measurements.
169 * Updates to constant-time C code so that compilers are less likely to use
170 conditional instructions, which can have an observable difference in
171 timing. (Clang has been seen to do this.) Also introduce assembly
172 implementations for 32- and 64-bit Arm and for x86 and x86-64, which are
173 guaranteed not to use conditional instructions.
174 * Fix definition of MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE, which was too
175 small when MBEDTLS_SHA384_C was defined and MBEDTLS_SHA512_C was
176 undefined. Mbed TLS itself was unaffected by this, but user code
177 which used MBEDTLS_MD_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE could be affected. The only
178 release containing this bug was Mbed TLS 3.4.0.
179 * Fix a buffer overread when parsing short TLS application data records in
180 null-cipher cipher suites. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
181 * Fix a remotely exploitable heap buffer overflow in TLS handshake parsing.
182 In TLS 1.3, all configurations are affected except PSK-only ones, and
183 both clients and servers are affected.
184 In TLS 1.2, the affected configurations are those with
185 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and ECDH enabled but DHM and RSA disabled,
186 and only servers are affected, not clients.
187 Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
188
189Bugfix
190 * Fix proper sizing for PSA_EXPORT_[KEY_PAIR/PUBLIC_KEY]_MAX_SIZE and
191 PSA_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE buffers when at least one accelerated EC is bigger
192 than all built-in ones and RSA is disabled.
193 Resolves #6622.
194 * Add missing md.h includes to some of the external programs from
195 the programs directory. Without this, even though the configuration
196 was sufficient for a particular program to work, it would only print
197 a message that one of the required defines is missing.
198 * Fix declaration of mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det_restartable() function
199 in the ecdsa.h header file. There was a build warning when the
200 configuration macro MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT was defined.
201 Resolves #7407.
202 * Fix an error when MBEDTLS_ECDSA_SIGN_ALT is defined but not
203 MBEDTLS_ECDSA_VERIFY_ALT, causing ecdsa verify to fail. Fixes #7498.
204 * Fix missing PSA initialization in sample programs when
205 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
206 * Fix the J-PAKE driver interface for user and peer to accept any values
207 (previously accepted values were limited to "client" or "server").
208 * Fix clang and armclang compilation error when targeting certain Arm
209 M-class CPUs (Cortex-M0, Cortex-M0+, Cortex-M1, Cortex-M23,
210 SecurCore SC000). Fixes #1077.
211 * Fix "unterminated '#pragma clang attribute push'" in sha256/sha512.c when
212 built with MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT but don't have a
213 way to detect the crypto extensions required. A warning is still issued.
214 * Fixed an issue that caused compile errors when using CMake and the IAR
215 toolchain.
216 * Fix very high stack usage in SSL debug code. Reported by Maximilian
217 Gerhardt in #7804.
218 * Fix a compilation failure in the constant_time module when
219 building for arm64_32 (e.g., for watchos). Reported by Paulo
220 Coutinho in #7787.
221 * Fix crypt_and_hash decryption fail when used with a stream cipher
222 mode of operation due to the input not being multiple of block size.
223 Resolves #7417.
224 * Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_string_to_names() would return success
225 when given a invalid name string if it did not contain '=' or ','.
226 * Fix compilation warnings in aes.c, which prevented the
227 example TF-M configuration in configs/ from building cleanly:
228 tfm_mbedcrypto_config_profile_medium.h with
229 crypto_config_profile_medium.h.
230 * In TLS 1.3, fix handshake failure when a client in its ClientHello
231 proposes an handshake based on PSK only key exchange mode or at least
232 one of the key exchange modes using ephemeral keys to a server that
233 supports only the PSK key exchange mode.
234 * Fix CCM* with no tag being not supported in a build with CCM as the only
235 symmetric encryption algorithm and the PSA configuration enabled.
236 * Fix the build with MBEDTLS_PSA_INJECT_ENTROPY. Fixes #7516.
237 * Fix a compilation error on some platforms when including mbedtls/ssl.h
238 with all TLS support disabled. Fixes #6628.
239 * Fix x509 certificate generation to conform to RFC 5480 / RFC 5758 when
240 using ECC key. The certificate was rejected by some crypto frameworks.
241 Fixes #2924.
242 * Fix a potential corruption of the passed-in IV when mbedtls_aes_crypt_cbc()
243 is called with zero length and padlock is not enabled.
244 * Fix compile failure due to empty enum in cipher_wrap.c, when building
245 with a very minimal configuration. Fixes #7625.
246 * Fix some cases where mbedtls_mpi_mod_exp, RSA key construction or ECDSA
247 signature can silently return an incorrect result in low memory conditions.
248 * Don't try to include MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE when
249 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is disabled.
250 * Fix IAR compiler warnings.
251 * Fix an issue when parsing an otherName subject alternative name into a
252 mbedtls_x509_san_other_name struct. The type-id of the otherName was not
253 copied to the struct. This meant that the struct had incomplete
254 information about the otherName SAN and contained uninitialized memory.
255 * Fix the detection of HardwareModuleName otherName SANs. These were being
256 detected by comparing the wrong field and the check was erroneously
257 inverted.
258 * Fix a build error in some configurations with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG
259 enabled, where some low-level modules required by requested PSA crypto
260 features were not getting automatically enabled. Fixes #7420.
261 * Fix undefined symbols in some builds using TLS 1.3 with a custom
262 configuration file.
263 * Fix log level for the got supported group message. Fixes #6765
264 * Functions in the ssl_cache module now return a negative MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx
265 error code on failure. Before, they returned 1 to indicate failure in
266 some cases involving a missing entry or a full cache.
267 * mbedtls_pk_parse_key() now rejects trailing garbage in encrypted keys.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100268 * Fix the build with CMake when Everest or P256-m is enabled through
269 a user configuration file or the compiler command line. Fixes #8165.
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100270
271Changes
272 * Enable Arm / Thumb bignum assembly for most Arm platforms when
273 compiling with gcc, clang or armclang and -O0.
274 * Enforce minimum RSA key size when generating a key
275 to avoid accidental misuse.
276 * Use heap memory to allocate DER encoded RSA private key.
277 This reduces stack usage significantly for RSA signature
278 operations when MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C is defined.
279 * Update Windows code to use BCryptGenRandom and wcslen, and
280 ensure that conversions between size_t, ULONG, and int are
281 always done safely. Original contribution by Kevin Kane #635, #730
282 followed by Simon Butcher #1453.
Dave Rodgman5d323bf2023-10-04 18:46:47 +0100283 * Users integrating their own PSA drivers should be aware that
Minos Galanakis80a81562023-10-03 22:03:50 +0100284 the file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c has been renamed
285 to psa_crypto_driver_wrappers_no_static.c.
286 * When using CBC with the cipher module, the requirement to call
287 mbedtls_cipher_set_padding_mode() is now enforced. Previously, omitting
288 this call accidentally applied a default padding mode chosen at compile
289 time.

Paul Elliottdbe435c2023-03-23 10:43:15 +0000299= Mbed TLS 3.4.0 branch released 2023-03-28
300
301Default behavior changes
302 * The default priority order of TLS 1.3 cipher suites has been modified to
303 follow the same rules as the TLS 1.2 cipher suites (see
304 ssl_ciphersuites.c). The preferred cipher suite is now
305 TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256.
306
307New deprecations
308 * mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial() is now being deprecated in favor of
309 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial_raw(). The goal here is to remove any
310 direct dependency of X509 on BIGNUM_C.
311 * PSA to mbedtls error translation is now unified in psa_util.h,
312 deprecating mbedtls_md_error_from_psa. Each file that performs error
313 translation should define its own version of PSA_TO_MBEDTLS_ERR,
314 optionally providing file-specific error pairs. Please see psa_util.h for
315 more details.
316
317Features
318 * Added partial support for parsing the PKCS #7 Cryptographic Message
319 Syntax, as defined in RFC 2315. Currently, support is limited to the
320 following:
321 - Only the signed-data content type, version 1 is supported.
322 - Only DER encoding is supported.
323 - Only a single digest algorithm per message is supported.
324 - Certificates must be in X.509 format. A message must have either 0
325 or 1 certificates.
326 - There is no support for certificate revocation lists.
327 - The authenticated and unauthenticated attribute fields of SignerInfo
328 must be empty.
329 Many thanks to Daniel Axtens, Nayna Jain, and Nick Child from IBM for
330 contributing this feature, and to Demi-Marie Obenour for contributing
331 various improvements, tests and bug fixes.
332 * General performance improvements by accessing multiple bytes at a time.
333 Fixes #1666.
334 * Improvements to use of unaligned and byte-swapped memory, reducing code
335 size and improving performance (depending on compiler and target
336 architecture).
337 * Add support for reading points in compressed format
338 (MBEDTLS_ECP_PF_COMPRESSED) with mbedtls_ecp_point_read_binary()
339 (and callers) for Short Weierstrass curves with prime p where p = 3 mod 4
340 (all mbedtls MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP* and MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_BP* curves
341 except MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP224R1 and MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_SECP224K1)
342 * SHA224_C/SHA384_C are now independent from SHA384_C/SHA512_C respectively.
343 This helps in saving code size when some of the above hashes are not
344 required.
345 * Add parsing of V3 extensions (key usage, Netscape cert-type,
346 Subject Alternative Names) in x509 Certificate Sign Requests.
347 * Use HOSTCC (if it is set) when compiling C code during generation of the
348 configuration-independent files. This allows them to be generated when
349 CC is set for cross compilation.
350 * Add parsing of uniformResourceIdentifier subtype for subjectAltName
351 extension in x509 certificates.
352 * Add an interruptible version of sign and verify hash to the PSA interface,
353 backed by internal library support for ECDSA signing and verification.
354 * Add parsing of rfc822Name subtype for subjectAltName
355 extension in x509 certificates.
356 * The configuration macros MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_PLATFORM_FILE and
357 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_STRUCT_FILE specify alternative locations for
358 the headers "psa/crypto_platform.h" and "psa/crypto_struct.h".
359 * When a PSA driver for ECDSA is present, it is now possible to disable
360 MBEDTLS_ECDSA_C in the build in order to save code size. For PK, X.509
361 and TLS to fully work, this requires MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO to be enabled.
362 Restartable/interruptible ECDSA operations in PK, X.509 and TLS are not
363 supported in those builds yet, as driver support for interruptible ECDSA
364 operations is not present yet.
365 * Add a driver dispatch layer for EC J-PAKE, enabling alternative
366 implementations of EC J-PAKE through the driver entry points.
367 * Add new API mbedtls_ssl_cache_remove for cache entry removal by
368 its session id.
369 * Add support to include the SubjectAltName extension to a CSR.
370 * Add support for AES with the Armv8-A Cryptographic Extension on
371 64-bit Arm. A new configuration option, MBEDTLS_AESCE_C, can
372 be used to enable this feature. Run-time detection is supported
373 under Linux only.
374 * When a PSA driver for EC J-PAKE is present, it is now possible to disable
375 MBEDTLS_ECJPAKE_C in the build in order to save code size. For the
376 corresponding TLS 1.2 key exchange to work, MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO needs
377 to be enabled.
378 * Add functions mbedtls_rsa_get_padding_mode() and mbedtls_rsa_get_md_alg()
379 to read non-public fields for padding mode and hash id from
380 an mbedtls_rsa_context, as requested in #6917.
381 * AES-NI is now supported with Visual Studio.
382 * AES-NI is now supported in 32-bit builds, or when MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM
383 is disabled, when compiling with GCC or Clang or a compatible compiler
384 for a target CPU that supports the requisite instructions (for example
385 gcc -m32 -msse2 -maes -mpclmul). (Generic x86 builds with GCC-like
386 compilers still require MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM and a 64-bit target.)
387 * It is now possible to use a PSA-held (opaque) password with the TLS 1.2
388 ECJPAKE key exchange, using the new API function
389 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ecjpake_password_opaque().

392 * Use platform-provided secure zeroization function where possible, such as
393 explicit_bzero().
394 * Zeroize SSL cache entries when they are freed.
395 * Fix a potential heap buffer overread in TLS 1.3 client-side when
396 MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C is enabled. This may result in an application crash.
397 * Add support for AES with the Armv8-A Cryptographic Extension on 64-bit
398 Arm, so that these systems are no longer vulnerable to timing side-channel
399 attacks. This is configured by MBEDTLS_AESCE_C, which is on by default.
400 Reported by Demi Marie Obenour.
401 * MBEDTLS_AESNI_C, which is enabled by default, was silently ignored on
402 builds that couldn't compile the GCC-style assembly implementation
403 (most notably builds with Visual Studio), leaving them vulnerable to
404 timing side-channel attacks. There is now an intrinsics-based AES-NI
405 implementation as a fallback for when the assembly one cannot be used.
406
407Bugfix
408 * Fix possible integer overflow in mbedtls_timing_hardclock(), which
409 could cause a crash in programs/test/benchmark.
410 * Fix IAR compiler warnings. Fixes #6924.
411 * Fix a bug in the build where directory names containing spaces were
412 causing generate_errors.pl to error out resulting in a build failure.
413 Fixes issue #6879.
414 * In TLS 1.3, when using a ticket for session resumption, tweak its age
415 calculation on the client side. It prevents a server with more accurate
416 ticket timestamps (typically timestamps in milliseconds) compared to the
417 Mbed TLS ticket timestamps (in seconds) to compute a ticket age smaller
418 than the age computed and transmitted by the client and thus potentially
419 reject the ticket. Fix #6623.
420 * Fix compile error where MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_X509_CRT_WRITE_C are
421 defined, but MBEDTLS_PK_RSA_ALT_SUPPORT is not defined. Fixes #3174.
422 * List PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG in psa/crypto_config.h so that it can
423 be toggled with config.py.
424 * The key derivation algorithm PSA_ALG_TLS12_ECJPAKE_TO_PMS cannot be
425 used on a shared secret from a key agreement since its input must be
426 an ECC public key. Reject this properly.
427 * mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_serial() now explicitly rejects serial numbers
428 whose binary representation is longer than 20 bytes. This was already
429 forbidden by the standard (RFC5280 - section 4.1.2.2) and now it's being
430 enforced also at code level.
431 * Fix potential undefined behavior in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs(). Reported by
432 Pascal Cuoq using TrustInSoft Analyzer in #6701; observed independently by
433 Aaron Ucko under Valgrind.
434 * Fix behavior of certain sample programs which could, when run with no
435 arguments, access uninitialized memory in some cases. Fixes #6700 (which
436 was found by TrustInSoft Analyzer during REDOCS'22) and #1120.
437 * Fix parsing of X.509 SubjectAlternativeName extension. Previously,
438 malformed alternative name components were not caught during initial
439 certificate parsing, but only on subsequent calls to
440 mbedtls_x509_parse_subject_alt_name(). Fixes #2838.
441 * Make the fields of mbedtls_pk_rsassa_pss_options public. This makes it
442 possible to verify RSA PSS signatures with the pk module, which was
443 inadvertently broken since Mbed TLS 3.0.
444 * Fix bug in conversion from OID to string in
445 mbedtls_oid_get_numeric_string(). OIDs such as 2.40.0.25 are now printed
446 correctly.
447 * Reject OIDs with overlong-encoded subidentifiers when converting
448 them to a string.
449 * Reject OIDs with subidentifier values exceeding UINT_MAX. Such
450 subidentifiers can be valid, but Mbed TLS cannot currently handle them.
451 * Reject OIDs that have unterminated subidentifiers, or (equivalently)
452 have the most-significant bit set in their last byte.
453 * Silence warnings from clang -Wdocumentation about empty \retval
454 descriptions, which started appearing with Clang 15. Fixes #6960.
455 * Fix the handling of renegotiation attempts in TLS 1.3. They are now
456 systematically rejected.
457 * Fix an unused-variable warning in TLS 1.3-only builds if
458 MBEDTLS_SSL_RENEGOTIATION was enabled. Fixes #6200.
459 * Fix undefined behavior in mbedtls_ssl_read() and mbedtls_ssl_write() if
460 len argument is 0 and buffer is NULL.
461 * Allow setting user and peer identifiers for EC J-PAKE operation
462 instead of role in PAKE PSA Crypto API as described in the specification.
463 This is a partial fix that allows only "client" and "server" identifiers.
464 * Fix a compilation error when PSA Crypto is built with support for
465 TLS12_PRF but not TLS12_PSK_TO_MS. Reported by joerchan in #7125.
466 * In the TLS 1.3 server, select the preferred client cipher suite, not the
467 least preferred. The selection error was introduced in Mbed TLS 3.3.0.
468 * Fix TLS 1.3 session resumption when the established pre-shared key is
469 384 bits long. That is the length of pre-shared keys created under a
470 session where the cipher suite is TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384.
471 * Fix an issue when compiling with MBEDTLS_SHA512_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT
472 enabled, which required specifying compiler flags enabling SHA3 Crypto
473 Extensions, where some compilers would emit EOR3 instructions in other
474 modules, which would then fail if run on a CPU without the SHA3
475 extensions. Fixes #5758.
476
477Changes
478 * Install the .cmake files into CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR/cmake/MbedTLS,
479 typically /usr/lib/cmake/MbedTLS.
480 * Mixed-endian systems are explicitly not supported any more.
481 * When MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO and MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC are both
482 defined, mbedtls_pk_sign() now use deterministic ECDSA for ECDSA
483 signatures. This aligns the behaviour with MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO to
484 the behaviour without it, where deterministic ECDSA was already used.
485 * Visual Studio: Rename the directory containing Visual Studio files from
486 visualc/VS2010 to visualc/VS2013 as we do not support building with versions
487 older than 2013. Update the solution file to specify VS2013 as a minimum.
488 * programs/x509/cert_write:
489 - now it accepts the serial number in 2 different formats: decimal and
490 hex. They cannot be used simultaneously
491 - "serial" is used for the decimal format and it's limted in size to
492 unsigned long long int
493 - "serial_hex" is used for the hex format; max length here is
494 MBEDTLS_X509_RFC5280_MAX_SERIAL_LEN*2
495 * The C code follows a new coding style. This is transparent for users but
496 affects contributors and maintainers of local patches. For more
497 information, see
498 https://mbed-tls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kb/how-to/rewrite-branch-for-coding-style/
499 * Changed the default MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE from 6 to 2.
500 As tested in issue 6790, the correlation between this define and
501 RSA decryption performance has changed lately due to security fixes.
502 To fix the performance degradation when using default values the
503 window was reduced from 6 to 2, a value that gives the best or close
504 to best results when tested on Cortex-M4 and Intel i7.
505 * When enabling MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_* or
506 MBEDTLS_SHA512_USE_A64_CRYPTO_*, it is no longer necessary to specify
507 compiler target flags on the command line; the library now sets target
508 options within the appropriate modules.

Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +0000512Default behavior changes
513 * Previously the macro MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID implemented version 05
514 of the IETF draft, and was marked experimental and disabled by default.
515 It is now no longer experimental, and implements the final version from
516 RFC 9146, which is not interoperable with the draft-05 version.
517 If you need to communicate with peers that use earlier versions of
518 Mbed TLS, then you need to define MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID_COMPAT
519 to 1, but then you won't be able to communicate with peers that use the
520 standard (non-draft) version.
521 If you need to interoperate with both classes of peers with the
522 same build of Mbed TLS, please let us know about your situation on the
523 mailing list or GitHub.
524
525Requirement changes
526 * When building with PSA drivers using generate_driver_wrappers.py, or
527 when building the library from the development branch rather than
528 from a release, the Python module jsonschema is now necessary, in
529 addition to jinja2. The official list of required Python modules is
530 maintained in scripts/basic.requirements.txt and may change again
531 in the future.
532
533New deprecations
534 * Deprecate mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data().
535 Use mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list()
536 or mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list_shallow().
537
538Features
539 * Support rsa_pss_rsae_* signature algorithms in TLS 1.2.
540 * make: enable building unversioned shared library, with e.g.:
541 "SHARED=1 SOEXT_TLS=so SOEXT_X509=so SOEXT_CRYPTO=so make lib"
542 resulting in library names like "libmbedtls.so" rather than
543 "libmbedcrypto.so.11".
544 * Expose the EC J-PAKE functionality through the Draft PSA PAKE Crypto API.
545 Only the ECC primitive with secp256r1 curve and SHA-256 hash algorithm
546 are supported in this implementation.
547 * Some modules can now use PSA drivers for hashes, including with no
548 built-in implementation present, but only in some configurations.
549 - RSA OAEP and PSS (PKCS#1 v2.1), PKCS5, PKCS12 and EC J-PAKE now use
550 hashes from PSA when (and only when) MBEDTLS_MD_C is disabled.
551 - PEM parsing of encrypted files now uses MD-5 from PSA when (and only
552 when) MBEDTLS_MD5_C is disabled.
553 See the documentation of the corresponding macros in mbedtls_config.h for
554 details.
555 Note that some modules are not able to use hashes from PSA yet, including
556 the entropy module. As a consequence, for now the only way to build with
557 all hashes only provided by drivers (no built-in hash) is to use
558 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG.
559 * When MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled, X.509, TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 now
560 properly negotiate/accept hashes based on their availability in PSA.
561 As a consequence, they now work in configurations where the built-in
562 implementations of (some) hashes are excluded and those hashes are only
563 provided by PSA drivers. (See previous entry for limitation on RSA-PSS
564 though: that module only use hashes from PSA when MBEDTLS_MD_C is off).
565 * Add support for opaque keys as the private keys associated to certificates
566 for authentication in TLS 1.3.
567 * Add the LMS post-quantum-safe stateful-hash asymmetric signature scheme.
568 Signature verification is production-ready, but generation is for testing
569 purposes only. This currently only supports one parameter set
570 (LMS_SHA256_M32_H10), meaning that each private key can be used to sign
571 1024 messages. As such, it is not intended for use in TLS, but instead
572 for verification of assets transmitted over an insecure channel,
573 particularly firmware images.
574 * Add the LM-OTS post-quantum-safe one-time signature scheme, which is
575 required for LMS. This can be used independently, but each key can only
576 be used to sign one message so is impractical for most circumstances.
577 * Mbed TLS now supports TLS 1.3 key establishment via pre-shared keys.
578 The pre-shared keys can be provisioned externally or via the ticket
579 mechanism (session resumption).
580 The ticket mechanism is supported when the configuration option
581 MBEDTLS_SSL_SESSION_TICKETS is enabled.
582 New options MBEDTLS_SSL_TLS1_3_KEY_EXCHANGE_MODE_xxx_ENABLED
583 control the support for the three possible TLS 1.3 key exchange modes.
584 * cert_write: support for setting extended key usage attributes. A
585 corresponding new public API call has been added in the library,
586 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_ext_key_usage().
587 * cert_write: support for writing certificate files in either PEM
588 or DER format.
589 * The PSA driver wrapper generator generate_driver_wrappers.py now
590 supports a subset of the driver description language, including
591 the following entry points: import_key, export_key, export_public_key,
592 get_builtin_key, copy_key.
593 * The new functions mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list() and
594 mbedtls_asn1_free_named_data_list_shallow() simplify the management
595 of memory in named data lists in X.509 structures.
596 * The TLS 1.2 EC J-PAKE key exchange can now use the PSA Crypto API.
597 Additional PSA key slots will be allocated in the process of such key
598 exchange for builds that enable MBEDTLS_KEY_EXCHANGE_ECJPAKE_ENABLED and
599 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO.
600 * Add support for DTLS Connection ID as defined by RFC 9146, controlled by
601 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (enabled by default) and configured with
602 mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().
603 * Add a driver dispatch layer for raw key agreement, enabling alternative
604 implementations of raw key agreement through the key_agreement driver
605 entry point. This entry point is specified in the proposed PSA driver
606 interface, but had not yet been implemented.
Dave Rodgman552e1072022-12-14 17:01:51 +0000607 * Add an ad-hoc key derivation function handling EC J-PAKE to PMS
608 calculation that can be used to derive the session secret in TLS 1.2,
609 as described in draft-cragie-tls-ecjpake-01. This can be achieved by
610 using PSA_ALG_TLS12_ECJPAKE_TO_PMS as the key derivation algorithm.

612Security
613 * Fix potential heap buffer overread and overwrite in DTLS if
614 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID is enabled and
615 MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_IN_LEN_MAX > 2 * MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_OUT_LEN_MAX.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +0000616 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough information
617 about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking
618 a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the
619 victim performing a single private-key operation if the window size used
620 for the exponentiation was 3 or smaller. Found and reported by Zili KOU,
Dave Rodgman69591e92022-12-08 14:59:54 +0000621 Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG. See "Cache Side-channel Attacks
622 and Defenses of the Sliding Window Algorithm in TEEs" - Design, Automation
623 and Test in Europe 2023.
624
625Bugfix
626 * Refactor mbedtls_aes_context to support shallow-copying. Fixes #2147.
627 * Fix an issue with in-tree CMake builds in releases with GEN_FILES
628 turned off: if a shipped file was missing from the working directory,
629 it could be turned into a symbolic link to itself.
630 * Fix a long-standing build failure when building x86 PIC code with old
631 gcc (4.x). The code will be slower, but will compile. We do however
632 recommend upgrading to a more recent compiler instead. Fixes #1910.
633 * Fix support for little-endian Microblaze when MBEDTLS_HAVE_ASM is defined.
634 Contributed by Kazuyuki Kimura to fix #2020.
635 * Use double quotes to include private header file psa_crypto_cipher.h.
636 Fixes 'file not found with <angled> include' error
637 when building with Xcode.
638 * Fix handling of broken symlinks when loading certificates using
639 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_path(). Instead of returning an error as soon as a
640 broken link is encountered, skip the broken link and continue parsing
641 other certificate files. Contributed by Eduardo Silva in #2602.
642 * Fix an interoperability failure between an Mbed TLS client with both
643 TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 support, and a TLS 1.2 server that supports
644 rsa_pss_rsae_* signature algorithms. This failed because Mbed TLS
645 advertised support for PSS in both TLS 1.2 and 1.3, but only
646 actually supported PSS in TLS 1.3.
647 * Fix a compilation error when using CMake with an IAR toolchain.
648 Fixes #5964.
649 * Fix a build error due to a missing prototype warning when
650 MBEDTLS_DEPRECATED_REMOVED is enabled.
651 * Fix mbedtls_ctr_drbg_free() on an initialized but unseeded context. When
652 MBEDTLS_AES_ALT is enabled, it could call mbedtls_aes_free() on an
653 uninitialized context.
654 * Fix a build issue on Windows using CMake where the source and build
655 directories could not be on different drives. Fixes #5751.
656 * Fix bugs and missing dependencies when building and testing
657 configurations with only one encryption type enabled in TLS 1.2.
658 * Provide the missing definition of mbedtls_setbuf() in some configurations
659 with MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_C disabled. Fixes #6118, #6196.
660 * Fix compilation errors when trying to build with
661 PSA drivers for AEAD (GCM, CCM, Chacha20-Poly1305).
662 * Fix memory leak in ssl_parse_certificate_request() caused by
663 mbedtls_x509_get_name() not freeing allocated objects in case of error.
664 Change mbedtls_x509_get_name() to clean up allocated objects on error.
665 * Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C but not
666 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO or MBEDTLS_PK_WRITE_C. Fixes #6408.
667 * Fix build failure with MBEDTLS_RSA_C and MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C but not
668 MBEDTLS_PK_PARSE_C. Fixes #6409.
669 * Fix ECDSA verification, where it was not always validating the
670 public key. This bug meant that it was possible to verify a
671 signature with an invalid public key, in some cases. Reported by
672 Guido Vranken using Cryptofuzz in #4420.
673 * Fix a possible null pointer dereference if a memory allocation fails
674 in TLS PRF code. Reported by Michael Madsen in #6516.
675 * Fix TLS 1.3 session resumption. Fixes #6488.
676 * Add a configuration check to exclude optional client authentication
677 in TLS 1.3 (where it is forbidden).
678 * Fix a bug in which mbedtls_x509_crt_info() would produce non-printable
679 bytes when parsing certificates containing a binary RFC 4108
680 HardwareModuleName as a Subject Alternative Name extension. Hardware
681 serial numbers are now rendered in hex format. Fixes #6262.
682 * Fix bug in error reporting in dh_genprime.c where upon failure,
683 the error code returned by mbedtls_mpi_write_file() is overwritten
684 and therefore not printed.
685 * In the bignum module, operations of the form (-A) - (+A) or (-A) - (-A)
686 with A > 0 created an unintended representation of the value 0 which was
687 not processed correctly by some bignum operations. Fix this. This had no
688 consequence on cryptography code, but might affect applications that call
689 bignum directly and use negative numbers.
690 * Fix a bug whereby the list of signature algorithms sent as part of
691 the TLS 1.2 server certificate request would get corrupted, meaning the
692 first algorithm would not get sent and an entry consisting of two random
693 bytes would be sent instead. Found by Serban Bejan and Dudek Sebastian.
694 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) of
695 mbedtls_mpi_add_mpi(), mbedtls_mpi_add_abs() and mbedtls_mpi_add_int()
696 when both operands are 0 and the left operand is represented with 0 limbs.
697 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) when some bignum
698 functions receive the most negative value of mbedtls_mpi_sint. Credit
699 to OSS-Fuzz. Fixes #6597.
700 * Fix undefined behavior (typically harmless in practice) in PSA ECB
701 encryption and decryption.
702 * Move some SSL-specific code out of libmbedcrypto where it had been placed
703 accidentally.
704 * Fix a build error when compiling the bignum module for some Arm platforms.
705 Fixes #6089, #6124, #6217.
706
707Changes
708 * Add the ability to query PSA_WANT_xxx macros to query_compile_time_config.
709 * Calling AEAD tag-specific functions for non-AEAD algorithms (which
710 should not be done - they are documented for use only by AES-GCM and
711 ChaCha20+Poly1305) now returns MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_FEATURE_UNAVAILABLE
712 instead of success (0).

721Default behavior changes
722 * mbedtls_cipher_set_iv will now fail with ChaCha20 and ChaCha20+Poly1305
723 for IV lengths other than 12. The library was silently overwriting this
724 length with 12, but did not inform the caller about it. Fixes #4301.
725
726Requirement changes
727 * The library will no longer compile out of the box on a platform without
728 setbuf(). If your platform does not have setbuf(), you can configure an
729 alternative function by enabling MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETBUF_ALT or
730 MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_SETBUF_MACRO.
731
732New deprecations
733 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version() and
734 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version() in favor of
735 mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_tls_version() and
736 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_tls_version().
737 * Deprecate mbedtls_cipher_setup_psa(). Use psa_aead_xxx() or
738 psa_cipher_xxx() directly instead.
739 * Secure element drivers enabled by MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C are deprecated.
740 This was intended as an experimental feature, but had not been explicitly
741 documented as such. Use opaque drivers with the interface enabled by
742 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_DRIVERS instead.
743 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_hashes() in favor of the more generic
744 mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_algs(). Signature algorithms for the TLS 1.2 and
745 TLS 1.3 handshake should now be configured with
746 mbedtls_ssl_conf_sig_algs().
747
748Features
749 * Add accessor to obtain ciphersuite id from ssl context.
750 * Add accessors to get members from ciphersuite info.
751 * Add mbedtls_ssl_ticket_rotate() for external ticket rotation.
752 * Add accessor to get the raw buffer pointer from a PEM context.
753 * The structures mbedtls_ssl_config and mbedtls_ssl_context now store
754 a piece of user data which is reserved for the application. The user
755 data can be either a pointer or an integer.
756 * Add an accessor function to get the configuration associated with
757 an SSL context.
758 * Add a function to access the protocol version from an SSL context in a
759 form that's easy to compare. Fixes #5407.
760 * Add function mbedtls_md_info_from_ctx() to recall the message digest
761 information that was used to set up a message digest context.
762 * Add ALPN support in TLS 1.3 clients.
763 * Add server certificate selection callback near end of Client Hello.
764 Register callback with mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb().
765 * Provide mechanism to reset handshake cert list by calling
766 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_own_cert() with NULL value for own_cert param.
767 * Add accessor mbedtls_ssl_get_hs_sni() to retrieve SNI from within
768 cert callback (mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb()) during handshake.
769 * The X.509 module now uses PSA hash acceleration if present.
770 * Add support for psa crypto key derivation for elliptic curve
771 keys. Fixes #3260.
772 * Add function mbedtls_timing_get_final_delay() to access the private
773 final delay field in an mbedtls_timing_delay_context, as requested in
774 #5183.
775 * Add mbedtls_pk_sign_ext() which allows generating RSA-PSS signatures when
776 PSA Crypto is enabled.
777 * Add function mbedtls_ecp_export() to export ECP key pair parameters.
778 Fixes #4838.
779 * Add function mbedtls_ssl_is_handshake_over() to enable querying if the SSL
780 Handshake has completed or not, and thus whether to continue calling
781 mbedtls_ssl_handshake_step(), requested in #4383.
782 * Add the function mbedtls_ssl_get_own_cid() to access our own connection id
783 within mbedtls_ssl_context, as requested in #5184.
784 * Introduce mbedtls_ssl_hs_cb_t typedef for use with
785 mbedtls_ssl_conf_cert_cb() and perhaps future callbacks
786 during TLS handshake.
787 * Add functions mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_tls_version() and
788 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_tls_version() that use a single value to specify
789 the protocol version.
790 * Extend the existing PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS() algorithm to support
791 mixed-PSK. Add an optional input PSA_KEY_DERIVATION_INPUT_OTHER_SECRET
792 holding the other secret.
793 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG is enabled, you may list the PSA crypto
794 feature requirements in the file named by the new macro
795 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_CONFIG_FILE instead of the default psa/crypto_config.h.
796 Furthermore you may name an additional file to include after the main
797 file with the macro MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_USER_CONFIG_FILE.
798 * Add the function mbedtls_x509_crt_has_ext_type() to access the ext types
799 field within mbedtls_x509_crt context, as requested in #5585.
800 * Add HKDF-Expand and HKDF-Extract as separate algorithms in the PSA API.
801 * Add support for the ARMv8 SHA-2 acceleration instructions when building
802 for Aarch64.
803 * Add support for authentication of TLS 1.3 clients by TLS 1.3 servers.
804 * Add support for server HelloRetryRequest message. The TLS 1.3 client is
805 now capable of negotiating another shared secret if the one sent in its
806 first ClientHello was not suitable to the server.
807 * Add support for client-side TLS version negotiation. If both TLS 1.2 and
808 TLS 1.3 protocols are enabled in the build of Mbed TLS, the TLS client now
809 negotiates TLS 1.3 or TLS 1.2 with TLS servers.
810 * Enable building of Mbed TLS with TLS 1.3 protocol support but without TLS
811 1.2 protocol support.
812 * Mbed TLS provides an implementation of a TLS 1.3 server (ephemeral key
813 establishment only). See docs/architecture/tls13-support.md for a
814 description of the support. The MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3 and
815 MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_C configuration options control this.
816 * Add accessors to configure DN hints for certificate request:
817 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dn_hints() and mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_dn_hints()
818 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO, which previously
819 affected only a limited subset of crypto operations in TLS, X.509 and PK,
820 now causes most of them to be done using PSA Crypto; see
821 docs/use-psa-crypto.md for the list of exceptions.
822 * The function mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque() now supports RSA key pairs as well.
823 Opaque keys can now be used everywhere a private key is expected in the
824 TLS and X.509 modules.
825 * Opaque pre-shared keys for TLS, provisioned with
826 mbedtls_ssl_conf_psk_opaque() or mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk_opaque(), which
827 previously only worked for "pure" PSK key exchange, now can also be used
828 for the "mixed" PSK key exchanges as well: ECDHE-PSK, DHE-PSK, RSA-PSK.
829 * cmake now detects if it is being built as a sub-project, and in that case
830 disables the target export/installation and package configuration.
831 * Make USE_PSA_CRYPTO compatible with KEY_ID_ENCODES_OWNER. Fixes #5259.
832 * Add example programs cipher_aead_demo.c, md_hmac_demo.c, aead_demo.c
833 and hmac_demo.c, which use PSA and the md/cipher interfaces side
834 by side in order to illustrate how the operation is performed in PSA.
835 Addresses #5208.
836
837Security
838 * Zeroize dynamically-allocated buffers used by the PSA Crypto key storage
839 module before freeing them. These buffers contain secret key material, and
840 could thus potentially leak the key through freed heap.
841 * Fix potential memory leak inside mbedtls_ssl_cache_set() with
842 an invalid session id length.
843 * Add the platform function mbedtls_setbuf() to allow buffering to be
844 disabled on stdio files, to stop secrets loaded from said files being
845 potentially left in memory after file operations. Reported by
846 Glenn Strauss.
847 * Fix a potential heap buffer overread in TLS 1.2 server-side when
848 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled, an opaque key (created with
849 mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque()) is provisioned, and a static ECDH ciphersuite
850 is selected. This may result in an application crash or potentially an
851 information leak.
852 * Fix a buffer overread in DTLS ClientHello parsing in servers with
853 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CLIENT_PORT_REUSE enabled. An unauthenticated client
854 or a man-in-the-middle could cause a DTLS server to read up to 255 bytes
855 after the end of the SSL input buffer. The buffer overread only happens
856 when MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN is less than a threshold that depends on
857 the exact configuration: 258 bytes if using mbedtls_ssl_cookie_check(),
858 and possibly up to 571 bytes with a custom cookie check function.
859 Reported by the Cybeats PSI Team.
860 * Fix a buffer overread in TLS 1.3 Certificate parsing. An unauthenticated
861 client or server could cause an MbedTLS server or client to overread up
862 to 64 kBytes of data and potentially overread the input buffer by that
863 amount minus the size of the input buffer. As overread data undergoes
864 various checks, the likelihood of reaching the boundary of the input
865 buffer is rather small but increases as its size
866 MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN decreases.
867 * Fix check of certificate key usage in TLS 1.3. The usage of the public key
868 provided by a client or server certificate for authentication was not
869 checked properly when validating the certificate. This could cause a
870 client or server to be able to authenticate itself through a certificate
871 to an Mbed TLS TLS 1.3 server or client while it does not own a proper
872 certificate to do so.
873
874Bugfix
875 * Declare or use PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG following the general
876 pattern for PSA_WANT_xxx symbols. Previously you had to specify
877 PSA_WANT_ALG_CCM for PSA_ALG_CCM_STAR_NO_TAG.
878 * Fix a memory leak if mbedtls_ssl_config_defaults() is called twice.
879 * Fixed swap of client and server random bytes when exporting them alongside
880 TLS 1.3 handshake and application traffic secret.
881 * Fix several bugs (warnings, compiler and linker errors, test failures)
882 in reduced configurations when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
883 * Fix a bug in (D)TLS curve negotiation: when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO was
884 enabled and an ECDHE-ECDSA or ECDHE-RSA key exchange was used, the
885 client would fail to check that the curve selected by the server for
886 ECDHE was indeed one that was offered. As a result, the client would
887 accept any curve that it supported, even if that curve was not allowed
888 according to its configuration. Fixes #5291.
889 * The TLS 1.3 implementation is now compatible with the
890 MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO configuration option.
891 * Fix unit tests that used 0 as the file UID. This failed on some
892 implementations of PSA ITS. Fixes #3838.
893 * Fix mbedtls_ssl_get_version() not reporting TLSv1.3. Fixes #5406.
894 * Fix API violation in mbedtls_md_process() test by adding a call to
895 mbedtls_md_starts(). Fixes #2227.
896 * Fix compile errors when MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME is not defined. Add tests
897 to catch bad uses of time.h.
898 * Fix a race condition in out-of-source builds with CMake when generated data
899 files are already present. Fixes #5374.
900 * Fix the library search path when building a shared library with CMake
901 on Windows.
902 * Fix bug in the alert sending function mbedtls_ssl_send_alert_message()
903 potentially leading to corrupted alert messages being sent in case
904 the function needs to be re-called after initially returning
905 MBEDTLS_SSL_WANT_WRITE. Fixes #1916.
906 * In configurations with MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID enabled but not
907 MBEDTLS_DEBUG_C, DTLS handshakes using CID would crash due to a null
908 pointer dereference. Fix this. Fixes #3998.
909 The fix was released, but not announced, in Mbed TLS 3.1.0.
910 * Fix incorrect documentation of mbedtls_x509_crt_profile. The previous
911 documentation stated that the `allowed_pks` field applies to signatures
912 only, but in fact it does apply to the public key type of the end entity
913 certificate, too. Fixes #1992.
914 * Fix undefined behavior in mbedtls_asn1_find_named_data(), where val is
915 not NULL and val_len is zero.
916 * Fix compilation error with mingw32. Fixed by Cameron Cawley in #4211.
917 * Fix compilation error when using C++ Builder on Windows. Reported by
918 Miroslav Mastny in #4015.
919 * psa_raw_key_agreement() now returns PSA_ERROR_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL when
920 applicable. Fixes #5735.
921 * Fix a bug in the x25519 example program where the removal of
922 MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT caused the program not to run. Fixes #4901 and
923 #3191.
924 * Fix a TLS 1.3 handshake failure when the peer Finished message has not
925 been received yet when we first try to fetch it.
926 * Encode X.509 dates before 1/1/2000 as UTCTime rather than
927 GeneralizedTime. Fixes #5465.
928 * Add mbedtls_x509_dn_get_next function to return the next relative DN in
929 an X509 name, to allow walking the name list. Fixes #5431.
930 * Fix order value of curve x448.
931 * Fix string representation of DNs when outputting values containing commas
932 and other special characters, conforming to RFC 1779. Fixes #769.
933 * Silence a warning from GCC 12 in the selftest program. Fixes #5974.
934 * Fix check_config.h to check that we have MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE
935 when MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3 is specified, and make this and other
936 dependencies explicit in the documentation. Fixes #5610.
937 * Fix mbedtls_asn1_write_mpi() writing an incorrect encoding of 0.
938 * Fix a TLS 1.3 handshake failure when the first attempt to send the client
939 Finished message on the network cannot be satisfied. Fixes #5499.
940 * Fix resource leaks in mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() in low
941 memory conditions.
942 * Fix server connection identifier setting for outgoing encrypted records
943 on DTLS 1.2 session resumption. After DTLS 1.2 session resumption with
944 connection identifier, the Mbed TLS client now properly sends the server
945 connection identifier in encrypted record headers. Fix #5872.
946 * Fix a null pointer dereference when performing some operations on zero
947 represented with 0 limbs (specifically mbedtls_mpi_mod_int() dividing
948 by 2, and mbedtls_mpi_write_string() in base 2).
949 * Fix record sizes larger than 16384 being sometimes accepted despite being
950 non-compliant. This could not lead to a buffer overflow. In particular,
951 application data size was already checked correctly.
952 * Fix MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_KEY_ID() and MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_OWNER_ID()
953 which have been broken, resulting in compilation errors, since Mbed TLS
954 3.0.
955 * Ensure that TLS 1.2 ciphersuite/certificate and key selection takes into
956 account not just the type of the key (RSA vs EC) but also what it can
957 actually do. Resolves #5831.
958 * Fix CMake windows host detection, especially when cross compiling.
959 * Fix an error in make where the absence of a generated file caused
960 make to break on a clean checkout. Fixes #5340.
961 * Work around an MSVC ARM64 compiler bug causing incorrect behaviour
962 in mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod(). Reported by Tautvydas Žilys in #5467.
Dave Rodgman2b52a2e2022-12-12 15:23:44 +0000963 * Removed the prompt to exit from all windows build programs, which was causing
Paul Elliott2238eed2022-07-08 18:19:12 +0100964 issues in CI/CD environments.
965
966Changes
967 * The file library/psa_crypto_driver_wrappers.c is now generated
968 from a template. In the future, the generation will support
969 driver descriptions. For the time being, to customize this file,
970 see docs/proposed/psa-driver-wrappers-codegen-migration-guide.md
971 * Return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT if the algorithm passed to one-shot
972 AEAD functions is not an AEAD algorithm. This aligns them with the
973 multipart functions, and the PSA Crypto API 1.1 specification.
974 * In mbedtls_pk_parse_key(), if no password is provided, don't allocate a
975 temporary variable on the heap. Suggested by Sergey Kanatov in #5304.
976 * Assume source files are in UTF-8 when using MSVC with CMake.
977 * Fix runtime library install location when building with CMake and MinGW.
978 DLLs are now installed in the bin directory instead of lib.
979 * cmake: Use GnuInstallDirs to customize install directories
980 Replace custom LIB_INSTALL_DIR variable with standard CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR
981 variable. For backward compatibility, set CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR if
982 LIB_INSTALL_DIR is set.
983 * Add a CMake option that enables static linking of the runtime library
984 in Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. Contributed by Microplankton.
985 * In CMake builds, add aliases for libraries so that the normal MbedTLS::*
986 targets work when MbedTLS is built as a subdirectory. This allows the
987 use of FetchContent, as requested in #5688.

Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +0100990
991API changes
992 * New error code for GCM: MBEDTLS_ERR_GCM_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL.
993 Alternative GCM implementations are expected to verify
994 the length of the provided output buffers and to return the
995 MBEDTLS_ERR_GCM_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL in case the buffer length is too small.
996 * You can configure groups for a TLS key exchange with the new function
997 mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups(). It extends mbedtls_ssl_conf_curves().
998 * Declare a number of structure fields as public: the fields of
999 mbedtls_ecp_curve_info, the fields describing the result of ASN.1 and
1000 X.509 parsing, and finally the field fd of mbedtls_net_context on
1001 POSIX/Unix-like platforms.
1002
1003Requirement changes
1004 * Sign-magnitude and one's complement representations for signed integers are
1005 not supported. Two's complement is the only supported representation.
1006
1007New deprecations
1008 * Deprecate mbedtls_ssl_conf_curves() in favor of the more generic
1009 mbedtls_ssl_conf_groups().
1010
1011Removals
1012 * Remove the partial support for running unit tests via Greentea on Mbed OS,
1013 which had been unmaintained since 2018.
1014
1015Features
1016 * Enable support for Curve448 via the PSA API. Contributed by
1017 Archana Madhavan in #4626. Fixes #3399 and #4249.
1018 * The identifier of the CID TLS extension can be configured by defining
1019 MBEDTLS_TLS_EXT_CID at compile time.
1020 * Implement the PSA multipart AEAD interface, currently supporting
1021 ChaChaPoly and GCM.
1022 * Warn if errors from certain functions are ignored. This is currently
1023 supported on GCC-like compilers and on MSVC and can be configured through
1024 the macro MBEDTLS_CHECK_RETURN. The warnings are always enabled
1025 (where supported) for critical functions where ignoring the return
1026 value is almost always a bug. Enable the new configuration option
1027 MBEDTLS_CHECK_RETURN_WARNING to get warnings for other functions. This
1028 is currently implemented in the AES, DES and md modules, and will be
1029 extended to other modules in the future.
1030 * Add missing PSA macros declared by PSA Crypto API 1.0.0:
1031 PSA_ALG_IS_SIGN_HASH, PSA_ALG_NONE, PSA_HASH_BLOCK_LENGTH, PSA_KEY_ID_NULL.
1032 * Add support for CCM*-no-tag cipher to the PSA.
1033 Currently only 13-byte long IV's are supported.
1034 For decryption a minimum of 16-byte long input is expected.
1035 These restrictions may be subject to change.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001036 * Add new API mbedtls_ct_memcmp for constant time buffer comparison.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001037 * Add functions to get the IV and block size from cipher_info structs.
1038 * Add functions to check if a cipher supports variable IV or key size.
1039 * Add the internal implementation of and support for CCM to the PSA multipart
1040 AEAD interface.
1041 * Mbed TLS provides a minimum viable implementation of the TLS 1.3
1042 protocol. See docs/architecture/tls13-support.md for the definition of
1043 the TLS 1.3 Minimum Viable Product (MVP). The MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_3
1044 configuration option controls the enablement of the support. The APIs
1045 mbedtls_ssl_conf_min_version() and mbedtls_ssl_conf_max_version() allow
1046 to select the 1.3 version of the protocol to establish a TLS connection.
1047 * Add PSA API definition for ARIA.
1048
1049Security
1050 * Zeroize several intermediate variables used to calculate the expected
1051 value when verifying a MAC or AEAD tag. This hardens the library in
1052 case the value leaks through a memory disclosure vulnerability. For
1053 example, a memory disclosure vulnerability could have allowed a
1054 man-in-the-middle to inject fake ciphertext into a DTLS connection.
1055 * In psa_aead_generate_nonce(), do not read back from the output buffer.
1056 This fixes a potential policy bypass or decryption oracle vulnerability
1057 if the output buffer is in memory that is shared with an untrusted
1058 application.
1059 * In psa_cipher_generate_iv() and psa_cipher_encrypt(), do not read back
1060 from the output buffer. This fixes a potential policy bypass or decryption
1061 oracle vulnerability if the output buffer is in memory that is shared with
1062 an untrusted application.
1063 * Fix a double-free that happened after mbedtls_ssl_set_session() or
1064 mbedtls_ssl_get_session() failed with MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_ALLOC_FAILED
1065 (out of memory). After that, calling mbedtls_ssl_session_free()
1066 and mbedtls_ssl_free() would cause an internal session buffer to
1067 be free()'d twice.
1068
1069Bugfix
1070 * Stop using reserved identifiers as local variables. Fixes #4630.
1071 * The GNU makefiles invoke python3 in preference to python except on Windows.
1072 The check was accidentally not performed when cross-compiling for Windows
1073 on Linux. Fix this. Fixes #4774.
1074 * Prevent divide by zero if either of PSA_CIPHER_ENCRYPT_OUTPUT_SIZE() or
1075 PSA_CIPHER_UPDATE_OUTPUT_SIZE() were called using an asymmetric key type.
1076 * Fix a parameter set but unused in psa_crypto_cipher.c. Fixes #4935.
1077 * Don't use the obsolete header path sys/fcntl.h in unit tests.
1078 These header files cause compilation errors in musl.
1079 Fixes #4969.
1080 * Fix missing constraints on x86_64 and aarch64 assembly code
1081 for bignum multiplication that broke some bignum operations with
1082 (at least) Clang 12.
1083 Fixes #4116, #4786, #4917, #4962.
1084 * Fix mbedtls_cipher_crypt: AES-ECB when MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is enabled.
1085 * Failures of alternative implementations of AES or DES single-block
1086 functions enabled with MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT, MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT,
1087 MBEDTLS_DES_CRYPT_ECB_ALT or MBEDTLS_DES3_CRYPT_ECB_ALT were ignored.
1088 This does not concern the implementation provided with Mbed TLS,
1089 where this function cannot fail, or full-module replacements with
1090 MBEDTLS_AES_ALT or MBEDTLS_DES_ALT. Reported by Armelle Duboc in #1092.
1091 * Some failures of HMAC operations were ignored. These failures could only
1092 happen with an alternative implementation of the underlying hash module.
1093 * Fix the error returned by psa_generate_key() for a public key. Fixes #4551.
1094 * Fix compile-time or run-time errors in PSA
1095 AEAD functions when ChachaPoly is disabled. Fixes #5065.
1096 * Remove PSA'a AEAD finish/verify output buffer limitation for GCM.
1097 The requirement of minimum 15 bytes for output buffer in
1098 psa_aead_finish() and psa_aead_verify() does not apply to the built-in
1099 implementation of GCM.
1100 * Move GCM's update output buffer length verification from PSA AEAD to
1101 the built-in implementation of the GCM.
1102 The requirement for output buffer size to be equal or greater then
1103 input buffer size is valid only for the built-in implementation of GCM.
1104 Alternative GCM implementations can process whole blocks only.
1105 * Fix the build of sample programs when neither MBEDTLS_ERROR_C nor
1106 MBEDTLS_ERROR_STRERROR_DUMMY is enabled.
1107 * Fix PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS verification accepting an arbitrary salt length.
1108 This algorithm now accepts only the same salt length for verification
1109 that it produces when signing, as documented. Use the new algorithm
1110 PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS_ANY_SALT to accept any salt length. Fixes #4946.
1111 * The existing predicate macro name PSA_ALG_IS_HASH_AND_SIGN is now reserved
1112 for algorithm values that fully encode the hashing step, as per the PSA
1113 Crypto API specification. This excludes PSA_ALG_RSA_PKCS1V15_SIGN_RAW and
1114 PSA_ALG_ECDSA_ANY. The new predicate macro PSA_ALG_IS_SIGN_HASH covers
1115 all algorithms that can be used with psa_{sign,verify}_hash(), including
1116 these two.
1117 * Fix issue in Makefile on Linux with SHARED=1, that caused shared libraries
1118 not to list other shared libraries they need.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001119 * Fix a bug in mbedtls_gcm_starts() when the bit length of the iv
1120 exceeds 2^32. Fixes #4884.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001121 * Fix an uninitialized variable warning in test_suite_ssl.function with GCC
1122 version 11.
1123 * Fix the build when no SHA2 module is included. Fixes #4930.
1124 * Fix the build when only the bignum module is included. Fixes #4929.
1125 * Fix a potential invalid pointer dereference and infinite loop bugs in
1126 pkcs12 functions when the password is empty. Fix the documentation to
1127 better describe the inputs to these functions and their possible values.
1128 Fixes #5136.
1129 * The key usage flags PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_MESSAGE now allows the MAC
1130 operations psa_mac_compute() and psa_mac_sign_setup().
1131 * The key usage flags PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_MESSAGE now allows the MAC
1132 operations psa_mac_verify() and psa_mac_verify_setup().
1133
1134Changes
1135 * Explicitly mark the fields mbedtls_ssl_session.exported and
1136 mbedtls_ssl_config.respect_cli_pref as private. This was an
1137 oversight during the run-up to the release of Mbed TLS 3.0.
1138 The fields were never intended to be public.
1139 * Implement multi-part CCM API.
1140 The multi-part functions: mbedtls_ccm_starts(), mbedtls_ccm_set_lengths(),
1141 mbedtls_ccm_update_ad(), mbedtls_ccm_update(), mbedtls_ccm_finish()
1142 were introduced in mbedTLS 3.0 release, however their implementation was
1143 postponed until now.
1144 Implemented functions support chunked data input for both CCM and CCM*
1145 algorithms.
1146 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_EXPORT_KEYS, making it always on and increasing the
1147 code size by about 80B on an M0 build. This option only gated an ability
1148 to set a callback, but was deemed unnecessary as it was yet another define
1149 to remember when writing tests, or test configurations. Fixes #4653.
1150 * Improve the performance of base64 constant-flow code. The result is still
1151 slower than the original non-constant-flow implementation, but much faster
1152 than the previous constant-flow implementation. Fixes #4814.
1153 * Ignore plaintext/ciphertext lengths for CCM*-no-tag operations.
1154 For CCM* encryption/decryption without authentication, input
1155 length will be ignored.
1156 * Indicate in the error returned if the nonce length used with
1157 ChaCha20-Poly1305 is invalid, and not just unsupported.
Ronald Cron1ffa6a52021-12-14 15:57:17 +01001158 * The mbedcrypto library includes a new source code module constant_time.c,
1159 containing various functions meant to resist timing side channel attacks.
1160 This module does not have a separate configuration option, and functions
1161 from this module will be included in the build as required. Currently
1162 most of the interface of this module is private and may change at any
1163 time.
1164 * The generated configuration-independent files are now automatically
1165 generated by the CMake build system on Unix-like systems. This is not
1166 yet supported when cross-compiling.
Ronald Cron831cf482021-12-15 09:02:38 +01001167
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001168= Mbed TLS 3.0.0 branch released 2021-07-07
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001169
1170API changes
1171 * Remove HAVEGE module.
1172 The design of HAVEGE makes it unsuitable for microcontrollers. Platforms
1173 with a more complex CPU usually have an operating system interface that
1174 provides better randomness. Instead of HAVEGE, declare OS or hardware RNG
1175 interfaces with mbedtls_entropy_add_source() and/or use an entropy seed
1176 file created securely during device provisioning. See
Dave Rodgmanb3196842022-10-12 16:47:08 +01001177 https://mbed-tls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kb/how-to/add-entropy-sources-to-entropy-pool/ for
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001178 more information.
1179 * Add missing const attributes to API functions.
1180 * Remove helpers for the transition from Mbed TLS 1.3 to Mbed TLS 2.0: the
1181 header compat-1.3.h and the script rename.pl.
1182 * Remove certs module from the API.
1183 Transfer keys and certificates embedded in the library to the test
1184 component. This contributes to minimizing library API and discourages
1185 users from using unsafe keys in production.
1186 * Move alt helpers and definitions.
1187 Various helpers and definitions available for use in alt implementations
1188 have been moved out of the include/ directory and into the library/
1189 directory. The files concerned are ecp_internal.h and rsa_internal.h
Gilles Peskine6a2fb612021-05-24 22:25:04 +02001190 which have also been renamed to ecp_internal_alt.h and rsa_alt_helpers.h
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001191 respectively.
1192 * Move internal headers.
1193 Header files that were only meant for the library's internal use and
1194 were not meant to be used in application code have been moved out of
1195 the include/ directory. The headers concerned are bn_mul.h, aesni.h,
1196 padlock.h, entropy_poll.h and *_internal.h.
1197 * Drop support for parsing SSLv2 ClientHello
1198 (MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_SUPPORT_SSLV2_CLIENT_HELLO).
1199 * Drop support for SSLv3 (MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_SSL3).
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001200 * Drop support for TLS record-level compression (MBEDTLS_ZLIB_SUPPORT).
1201 * Drop support for RC4 TLS ciphersuites.
1202 * Drop support for single-DES ciphersuites.
1203 * Drop support for MBEDTLS_SSL_HW_RECORD_ACCEL.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001204 * Update AEAD output size macros to bring them in line with the PSA Crypto
1205 API version 1.0 spec. This version of the spec parameterizes them on the
1206 key type used, as well as the key bit-size in the case of
1207 PSA_AEAD_TAG_LENGTH.
1208 * Add configuration option MBEDTLS_X509_REMOVE_INFO which
1209 removes the mbedtls_x509_*_info(), mbedtls_debug_print_crt()
1210 as well as other functions and constants only used by
1211 those functions. This reduces the code footprint by
1212 several kB.
1213 * Remove SSL error codes `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CERTIFICATE_REQUIRED`
1214 and `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_INVALID_VERIFY_HASH` which are never
1215 returned from the public SSL API.
1216 * Remove `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_CERTIFICATE_TOO_LARGE` and return
1217 `MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL` instead.
Dave Rodgman814b0992021-07-02 12:11:14 +01001218 * The output parameter of mbedtls_sha512_finish, mbedtls_sha512,
1219 mbedtls_sha256_finish and mbedtls_sha256 now has a pointer type
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001220 rather than array type. This removes spurious warnings in some compilers
1221 when outputting a SHA-384 or SHA-224 hash into a buffer of exactly
1222 the hash size.
1223 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TEST_NULL_ENTROPY config option. Fixes #4388.
1224 * The interface of the GCM module has changed to remove restrictions on
1225 how the input to multipart operations is broken down. mbedtls_gcm_finish()
Dave Rodgmaneaef0b72021-07-01 16:59:13 +01001226 now takes extra output parameters for the last partial output block.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001227 mbedtls_gcm_update() now takes extra parameters for the output length.
1228 The software implementation always produces the full output at each
1229 call to mbedtls_gcm_update(), but alternative implementations activated
1230 by MBEDTLS_GCM_ALT may delay partial blocks to the next call to
1231 mbedtls_gcm_update() or mbedtls_gcm_finish(). Furthermore, applications
1232 no longer pass the associated data to mbedtls_gcm_starts(), but to the
1233 new function mbedtls_gcm_update_ad().
1234 These changes are backward compatible for users of the cipher API.
1235 * Replace MBEDTLS_SHA512_NO_SHA384 config option with MBEDTLS_SHA384_C.
1236 This separates config option enabling the SHA384 algorithm from option
1237 enabling the SHA512 algorithm. Fixes #4034.
1238 * Introduce MBEDTLS_SHA224_C.
1239 This separates config option enabling the SHA224 algorithm from option
1240 enabling SHA256.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001241 * The getter and setter API of the SSL session cache (used for
1242 session-ID based session resumption) has changed to that of
1243 a key-value store with keys being session IDs and values
1244 being opaque instances of `mbedtls_ssl_session`.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001245 * Remove the mode parameter from RSA operation functions. Signature and
1246 decryption functions now always use the private key and verification and
1247 encryption use the public key. Verification functions also no longer have
1248 RNG parameters.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001249 * Modify semantics of `mbedtls_ssl_conf_[opaque_]psk()`:
1250 In Mbed TLS 2.X, the API prescribes that later calls overwrite
1251 the effect of earlier calls. In Mbed TLS 3.0, calling
1252 `mbedtls_ssl_conf_[opaque_]psk()` more than once will fail,
1253 leaving the PSK that was configured first intact.
1254 Support for more than one PSK may be added in 3.X.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001255 * The function mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension() has an extra parameter
1256 which allows to mark an extension as critical. Fixes #4055.
1257 * For multi-part AEAD operations with the cipher module, calling
1258 mbedtls_cipher_finish() is now mandatory. Previously the documentation
1259 was unclear on this point, and this function happened to never do
1260 anything with the currently implemented AEADs, so in practice it was
1261 possible to skip calling it, which is no longer supported.
1262 * The option MBEDTLS_ECP_FIXED_POINT_OPTIM use pre-computed comb tables
1263 instead of computing tables in runtime. Thus, this option now increase
1264 code size, and it does not increase RAM usage in runtime anymore.
1265 * Remove the SSL APIs mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() and
1266 mbedtls_ssl_get_output_max_frag_len(), and add a new API
1267 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_in_record_payload(), complementing the existing
1268 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_out_record_payload().
1269 Uses of mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() and
1270 mbedtls_ssl_get_input_max_frag_len() should be replaced by
1271 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_in_record_payload() and
1272 mbedtls_ssl_get_max_out_record_payload(), respectively.
1273 * mbedtls_rsa_init() now always selects the PKCS#1v1.5 encoding for an RSA
1274 key. To use an RSA key with PSS or OAEP, call mbedtls_rsa_set_padding()
1275 after initializing the context. mbedtls_rsa_set_padding() now returns an
1276 error if its parameters are invalid.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001277 * Replace MBEDTLS_SSL_SRV_RESPECT_CLIENT_PREFERENCE by a runtime
1278 configuration function mbedtls_ssl_conf_preference_order(). Fixes #4398.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001279 * Instead of accessing the len field of a DHM context, which is no longer
1280 supported, use the new function mbedtls_dhm_get_len() .
1281 * In modules that implement cryptographic hash functions, many functions
1282 mbedtls_xxx() now return int instead of void, and the corresponding
1283 function mbedtls_xxx_ret() which was identical except for returning int
1284 has been removed. This also concerns mbedtls_xxx_drbg_update(). See the
1285 migration guide for more information. Fixes #4212.
1286 * For all functions that take a random number generator (RNG) as a
1287 parameter, this parameter is now mandatory (that is, NULL is not an
1288 acceptable value). Functions which previously accepted NULL and now
1289 reject it are: the X.509 CRT and CSR writing functions; the PK and RSA
1290 sign and decrypt function; mbedtls_rsa_private(); the functions
1291 in DHM and ECDH that compute the shared secret; the scalar multiplication
1292 functions in ECP.
1293 * The following functions now require an RNG parameter:
1294 mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv(), mbedtls_pk_check_pair(),
1295 mbedtls_pk_parse_key(), mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile().
1296 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_export_keys_ext_cb() and
1297 mbedtls_ssl_conf_export_keys_cb() have been removed and
1298 replaced by a new API mbedtls_ssl_set_export_keys_cb().
1299 Raw keys and IVs are no longer passed to the callback.
1300 Further, callbacks now receive an additional parameter
1301 indicating the type of secret that's being exported,
1302 paving the way for the larger number of secrets
1303 in TLS 1.3. Finally, the key export callback and
1304 context are now connection-specific.
1305 * Signature functions in the RSA and PK modules now require the hash
1306 length parameter to be the size of the hash input. For RSA signatures
1307 other than raw PKCS#1 v1.5, this must match the output size of the
1308 specified hash algorithm.
1309 * The functions mbedtls_pk_sign(), mbedtls_pk_sign_restartable(),
1310 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature() and
1311 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature_restartable() now take an extra parameter
1312 indicating the size of the output buffer for the signature.
1313 * Implement one-shot cipher functions, psa_cipher_encrypt and
1314 psa_cipher_decrypt, according to the PSA Crypto API 1.0.0
1315 specification.
1316 * Direct access to fields of structures declared in public headers is no
1317 longer supported except for fields that are documented public. Use accessor
1318 functions instead. For more information, see the migration guide entry
1319 "Most structure fields are now private".
Dave Rodgman9bd03892021-07-01 16:59:49 +01001320 * mbedtls_ssl_get_session_pointer() has been removed, and
1321 mbedtls_ssl_{set,get}_session() may now only be called once for any given
1322 SSL context.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001323
1324Default behavior changes
1325 * Enable by default the functionalities which have no reason to be disabled.
1326 They are: ARIA block cipher, CMAC mode, elliptic curve J-PAKE library and
1327 Key Wrapping mode as defined in NIST SP 800-38F. Fixes #4036.
1328 * Some default policies for X.509 certificate verification and TLS have
1329 changed: curves and hashes weaker than 255 bits are no longer accepted
1330 by default. The default order in TLS now favors faster curves over larger
1331 curves.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001332
1333Requirement changes
1334 * The library now uses the %zu format specifier with the printf() family of
1335 functions, so requires a toolchain that supports it. This change does not
1336 affect the maintained LTS branches, so when contributing changes please
1337 bear this in mind and do not add them to backported code.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001338 * If you build the development version of Mbed TLS, rather than an official
1339 release, some configuration-independent files are now generated at build
1340 time rather than checked into source control. This includes some library
1341 source files as well as the Visual Studio solution. Perl, Python 3 and a
1342 C compiler for the host platform are required. See “Generated source files
1343 in the development branch” in README.md for more information.
1344 * Refresh the minimum supported versions of tools to build the
1345 library. CMake versions older than 3.10.2 and Python older
1346 than 3.6 are no longer supported.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001347
1348Removals
1349 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
1350 compile-time option, which was off by default. Users should not trust
1351 certificates signed with SHA-1 due to the known attacks against SHA-1.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard143b1e32021-05-05 09:46:01 +02001352 If needed, SHA-1 certificates can still be verified by using a custom
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde7563062021-04-26 10:08:29 +02001353 verification profile.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001354 * Removed deprecated things in psa/crypto_compat.h. Fixes #4284
1355 * Removed deprecated functions from hashing modules. Fixes #4280.
1356 * Remove PKCS#11 library wrapper. PKCS#11 has limited functionality,
1357 lacks automated tests and has scarce documentation. Also, PSA Crypto
1358 provides a more flexible private key management.
1359 More details on PCKS#11 wrapper removal can be found in the mailing list
1360 https://lists.trustedfirmware.org/pipermail/mbed-tls/2020-April/000024.html
1361 * Remove deprecated error codes. Fix #4283
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001362 * Remove MBEDTLS_ENABLE_WEAK_CIPHERSUITES configuration option. Fixes #4416.
1363 * Remove the MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_CERTIFICATES
1364 compile-time option. This option has been inactive for a long time.
1365 Please use the `lifetime` parameter of `mbedtls_ssl_ticket_setup()`
1366 instead.
1367 * Remove the following deprecated functions and constants of hex-encoded
1368 primes based on RFC 5114 and RFC 3526 from library code and tests:
1369 mbedtls_aes_encrypt(), mbedtls_aes_decrypt(), mbedtls_mpi_is_prime(),
1370 mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt(), mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt(),
1371 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update(), mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update(),
1372 mbedtls_ecdsa_write_signature_det(), mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det(),
1373 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dh_param(), mbedtls_ssl_get_max_frag_len(),
1374 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC5114_MODP_2048_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC5114_MODP_2048_G,
1375 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_G,
1376 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_3072_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_3072_G,
1377 MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_4096_P, MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_4096_G.
1378 Remove the deprecated file: include/mbedtls/net.h. Fixes #4282.
1379 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_MAX_CONTENT_LEN configuration option, since
1380 MBEDTLS_SSL_IN_CONTENT_LEN and MBEDTLS_SSL_OUT_CONTENT_LEN replace
1381 it. Fixes #4362.
1382 * Remove the MBEDTLS_SSL_RECORD_CHECKING option and enable by default its
1383 previous action. Fixes #4361.
1384 * Remove support for TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1 and DTLS 1.0, as well as support for
1385 CBC record splitting, fallback SCSV, and the ability to configure
1386 ciphersuites per version, which are no longer relevant. This removes the
1387 configuration options MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1,
1388 MBEDTLS_SSL_PROTO_TLS1_1, MBEDTLS_SSL_CBC_RECORD_SPLITTING and
1389 MBEDTLS_SSL_FALLBACK_SCSV as well as the functions
1390 mbedtls_ssl_conf_cbc_record_splitting(),
1391 mbedtls_ssl_get_key_exchange_md_ssl_tls(), mbedtls_ssl_conf_fallback(),
1392 and mbedtls_ssl_conf_ciphersuites_for_version(). Fixes #4286.
1393 * The RSA module no longer supports private-key operations with the public
1394 key and vice versa.
1395 * Remove the MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_BADMAC_LIMIT config.h option. Fixes #4403.
1396 * Remove all the 3DES ciphersuites:
1397 MBEDTLS_TLS_DHE_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1398 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1399 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1400 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1401 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1402 MBEDTLS_TLS_ECDH_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1403 MBEDTLS_TLS_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1404 MBEDTLS_TLS_RSA_PSK_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA,
1405 MBEDTLS_TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA. Remove the
1406 MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES option which is no longer relevant.
1407 Fixes #4367.
1408 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_EXTENSIONS_NON_V3 option and let the code
1409 behave as if it was always disabled. Fixes #4386.
1410 * Remove MBEDTLS_ECDH_LEGACY_CONTEXT config option since this was purely for
1411 backward compatibility which is no longer supported. Addresses #4404.
1412 * Remove the following macros: MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS,
1413 MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS_ASSERT, MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED,
1414 MBEDTLS_PARAM_FAILED_ALT. Fixes #4313.
1415 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_CRITICAL_EXTENSION config.h
1416 option. The mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() is the way to go for
1417 migration path. Fixes #4378.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001418 * Remove the MBEDTLS_X509_CHECK_KEY_USAGE and
1419 MBEDTLS_X509_CHECK_EXTENDED_KEY_USAGE config.h options and let the code
1420 behave as if they were always enabled. Fixes #4405.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001421 * MBEDTLS_ECP_MAX_BITS is no longer a configuration option because it is
1422 now determined automatically based on supported curves.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001423 * Remove the following functions: mbedtls_timing_self_test(),
1424 mbedtls_hardclock_poll(), mbedtls_timing_hardclock() and
1425 mbedtls_set_alarm(). Fixes #4083.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001426 * The configuration option MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG has been removed as
1427 it no longer had any effect.
Dave Rodgman745e3582021-07-05 18:53:31 +01001428 * Remove all support for MD2, MD4, RC4, Blowfish and XTEA. This removes the
1429 corresponding modules and all their APIs and related configuration
1430 options. Fixes #4084.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001431 * Remove MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC and also remove
1432 MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT config option. Users are better served by
1433 using a CCM-8 ciphersuite than a CBC ciphersuite with truncated HMAC.
1434 See issue #4341 for more details.
1435 * Remove the compile-time option
1436 MBEDTLS_TLS_DEFAULT_ALLOW_SHA1_IN_KEY_EXCHANGE.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001437
1438Features
1439 * Add mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_sign_ext() function allowing to generate a
1440 signature with a specific salt length. This function allows to validate
1441 test cases provided in the NIST's CAVP test suite. Contributed by Cédric
1442 Meuter in PR #3183.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001443 * Added support for built-in driver keys through the PSA opaque crypto
1444 driver interface. Refer to the documentation of
1445 MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_BUILTIN_KEYS for more information.
1446 * Implement psa_sign_message() and psa_verify_message().
1447 * The multi-part GCM interface (mbedtls_gcm_update() or
1448 mbedtls_cipher_update()) no longer requires the size of partial inputs to
1449 be a multiple of 16.
1450 * The multi-part GCM interface now supports chunked associated data through
1451 multiple calls to mbedtls_gcm_update_ad().
1452 * The new function mbedtls_mpi_random() generates a random value in a
1453 given range uniformly.
1454 * Alternative implementations of the AES, DHM, ECJPAKE, ECP, RSA and timing
1455 modules had undocumented constraints on their context types. These
1456 constraints have been relaxed.
1457 See docs/architecture/alternative-implementations.md for the remaining
1458 constraints.
1459 * The new functions mbedtls_dhm_get_len() and mbedtls_dhm_get_bitlen()
1460 query the size of the modulus in a Diffie-Hellman context.
1461 * The new function mbedtls_dhm_get_value() copy a field out of a
1462 Diffie-Hellman context.
1463 * Use the new function mbedtls_ecjpake_set_point_format() to select the
1464 point format for ECJPAKE instead of accessing the point_format field
1465 directly, which is no longer supported.
1466 * Implement psa_mac_compute() and psa_mac_verify() as defined in the
1467 PSA Cryptograpy API 1.0.0 specification.

Dave Rodgman5b13f602021-07-05 18:09:16 +01001470 * Fix a bias in the generation of finite-field Diffie-Hellman-Merkle (DHM)
1471 private keys and of blinding values for DHM and elliptic curves (ECP)
1472 computations. Reported by FlorianF89 in #4245.
1473 * Fix a potential side channel vulnerability in ECDSA ephemeral key generation.
1474 An adversary who is capable of very precise timing measurements could
1475 learn partial information about the leading bits of the nonce used for the
1476 signature, allowing the recovery of the private key after observing a
1477 large number of signature operations. This completes a partial fix in
1478 Mbed TLS 2.20.0.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001479 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough information
1480 about memory accesses (typically, an untrusted operating system attacking
1481 a secure enclave) could recover an RSA private key after observing the
1482 victim performing a single private-key operation. Found and reported by
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001483 Zili KOU, Wenjian HE, Sharad Sinha, and Wei ZHANG.
Tom Cosgroveb3c6a1e2023-03-08 15:47:00 +00001484 * Fix an issue where an adversary with access to precise enough timing
1485 information (typically, a co-located process) could recover a Curve25519
1486 or Curve448 static ECDH key after inputting a chosen public key and
1487 observing the victim performing the corresponding private-key operation.
1488 Found and reported by Leila Batina, Lukas Chmielewski, Björn Haase, Niels
1489 Samwel and Peter Schwabe.
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001490
1491Bugfix
1492 * Fix premature fopen() call in mbedtls_entropy_write_seed_file which may
1493 lead to the seed file corruption in case if the path to the seed file is
1494 equal to MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_STD_NV_SEED_FILE. Contributed by Victor
1495 Krasnoshchok in #3616.
1496 * PSA functions creating a key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT rather
1497 than PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE when the identifier specified for the key
1498 to create is not valid, bringing them in line with version 1.0.0 of the
1499 specification. Fix #4271.
1500 * Add printf function attributes to mbedtls_debug_print_msg to ensure we
1501 get printf format specifier warnings.
1502 * PSA functions other than psa_open_key now return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE
1503 rather than PSA_ERROR_DOES_NOT_EXIST for an invalid handle, bringing them
1504 in line with version 1.0.0 of the specification. Fix #4162.
1505 * Fix a bug in ECDSA that would cause it to fail when the hash is all-bits
1506 zero. Fixes #1792
Gilles Peskinef4998b02021-06-10 15:51:54 +02001507 * Fix some cases in the bignum module where the library constructed an
1508 unintended representation of the value 0 which was not processed
1509 correctly by some bignum operations. This could happen when
1510 mbedtls_mpi_read_string() was called on "-0", or when
1511 mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi() and mbedtls_mpi_mul_int() was called with one of
1512 the arguments being negative and the other being 0. Fixes #4643.
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001513 * Fix a compilation error when MBEDTLS_ECP_RANDOMIZE_MXZ_ALT is
1514 defined. Fixes #4217.
1515 * Fix an incorrect error code when parsing a PKCS#8 private key.
1516 * In a TLS client, enforce the Diffie-Hellman minimum parameter size
1517 set with mbedtls_ssl_conf_dhm_min_bitlen() precisely. Before, the
1518 minimum size was rounded down to the nearest multiple of 8.
1519 * In library/net_sockets.c, _POSIX_C_SOURCE and _XOPEN_SOURCE are
1520 defined to specific values. If the code is used in a context
1521 where these are already defined, this can result in a compilation
1522 error. Instead, assume that if they are defined, the values will
1523 be adequate to build Mbed TLS.
1524 * With MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_C disabled, some functions were getting built
1525 nonetheless, resulting in undefined reference errors when building a
1526 shared library. Reported by Guillermo Garcia M. in #4411.
1527 * The cipher suite TLS-RSA-WITH-CAMELLIA-256-GCM-SHA384 was not available
1528 when SHA-1 was disabled and was offered when SHA-1 was enabled but SHA-384
1529 was disabled. Fix the dependency. Fixes #4472.
1530 * Do not offer SHA384 cipher suites when SHA-384 is disabled. Fixes #4499.
1531 * Fix test suite code on platforms where int32_t is not int, such as
1532 Arm Cortex-M. Fixes #4530.
1533 * Fix some issues affecting MBEDTLS_ARIA_ALT implementations: a misplaced
1534 directive in a header and a missing initialization in the self-test.
1535 * Fix a missing initialization in the Camellia self-test, affecting
1536 MBEDTLS_CAMELLIA_ALT implementations.
1537 * Restore the ability to configure PSA via Mbed TLS options to support RSA
1538 key pair operations but exclude RSA key generation. When MBEDTLS_GENPRIME
1539 is not defined PSA will no longer attempt to use mbedtls_rsa_gen_key().
1540 Fixes #4512.
1541 * Fix a regression introduced in 2.24.0 which broke (D)TLS CBC ciphersuites
1542 (when the encrypt-then-MAC extension is not in use) with some ALT
1543 implementations of the underlying hash (SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384), causing
1544 the affected side to wrongly reject valid messages. Fixes #4118.
1545 * Remove outdated check-config.h check that prevented implementing the
1546 timing module on Mbed OS. Fixes #4633.
1547 * Fix PSA_ALG_TLS12_PRF and PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS being too permissive
1548 about missing inputs.
1549 * Fix mbedtls_net_poll() and mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() often failing with
1550 MBEDTLS_ERR_NET_POLL_FAILED on Windows. Fixes #4465.
1551 * Fix a resource leak in a test suite with an alternative AES
1552 implementation. Fixes #4176.
1553 * Fix a crash in mbedtls_mpi_debug_mpi on a bignum having 0 limbs. This
1554 could notably be triggered by setting the TLS debug level to 3 or above
1555 and using a Montgomery curve for the key exchange. Reported by lhuang04
1556 in #4578. Fixes #4608.
1557 * psa_verify_hash() was relying on implementation-specific behavior of
1558 mbedtls_rsa_rsassa_pss_verify() and was causing failures in some _ALT
1559 implementations. This reliance is now removed. Fixes #3990.
1560 * Disallow inputs of length different from the corresponding hash when
1561 signing or verifying with PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS (The PSA Crypto API mandates
1562 that PSA_ALG_RSA_PSS uses the same hash throughout the algorithm.)
1563 * Fix a null pointer dereference when mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod() was called with
1564 A=0 represented with 0 limbs. Up to and including Mbed TLS 2.26, this bug
1565 could not be triggered by code that constructed A with one of the
1566 mbedtls_mpi_read_xxx functions (including in particular TLS code) since
1567 those always built an mpi object with at least one limb.
1568 Credit to OSS-Fuzz. Fixes #4641.
1569 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_gcd(G,A,B) when the value of B is zero. This had no
1570 effect on Mbed TLS's internal use of mbedtls_mpi_gcd(), but may affect
1571 applications that call mbedtls_mpi_gcd() directly. Fixes #4642.
1572 * The PSA API no longer allows the creation or destruction of keys with a
1573 read-only lifetime. The persistence level PSA_KEY_PERSISTENCE_READ_ONLY
1574 can now only be used as intended, for keys that cannot be modified through
1575 normal use of the API.
1576 * When MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SPM is enabled, crypto_spe.h was not included
1577 in all the right places. Include it from crypto_platform.h, which is
1578 the natural place. Fixes #4649.
1579 * Fix which alert is sent in some cases to conform to the
1580 applicable RFC: on an invalid Finished message value, an
1581 invalid max_fragment_length extension, or an
1582 unsupported extension used by the server.
Dave Rodgmana84a8eb2021-07-01 17:01:04 +01001583 * Correct (change from 12 to 13 bytes) the value of the macro describing the
1584 maximum nonce length returned by psa_aead_generate_nonce().
Dave Rodgman10ba5532021-04-26 14:58:26 +01001585
1586Changes
1587 * Fix the setting of the read timeout in the DTLS sample programs.
1588 * Add extra printf compiler warning flags to builds.
1589 * Fix memsan build false positive in x509_crt.c with clang 11
Dave Rodgmanbb2eece2021-06-30 18:07:19 +01001590 * Alternative implementations of CMAC may now opt to not support 3DES as a
1591 CMAC block cipher, and still pass the CMAC self test.
1592 * Remove the AES sample application programs/aes/aescrypt2 which shows
1593 bad cryptographic practice. Fix #1906.
1594 * Remove configs/config-psa-crypto.h, which no longer had any intended
1595 differences from the default configuration, but had accidentally diverged.
1596 * When building the test suites with GNU make, invoke python3 or python, not
1597 python2, which is no longer supported upstream.
1598 * fix build failure on MinGW toolchain when __USE_MING_ANSI_STDIO is on.
1599 When that flag is on, standard GNU C printf format specifiers
1600 should be used.
1601 * Replace MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_PADDING_GRANULARITY and
1602 MBEDTLS_SSL_TLS1_3_PADDING_GRANULARITY with a new single unified option
1603 MBEDTLS_SSL_CID_TLS1_3_PADDING_GRANULARITY. Fixes #4335.
1604 * Reduce the default value of MBEDTLS_ECP_WINDOW_SIZE. This reduces RAM usage
1605 during ECC operations at a negligible performance cost.
1606 * mbedtls_mpi_read_binary(), mbedtls_mpi_read_binary_le() and
1607 mbedtls_mpi_read_string() now construct an mbedtls_mpi object with 0 limbs
1608 when their input has length 0. Note that this is an implementation detail
1609 and can change at any time, so this change should be transparent, but it
1610 may result in mbedtls_mpi_write_binary() or mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
1611 now writing an empty string where it previously wrote one or more
1612 zero digits when operating from values constructed with an mpi_read
1613 function and some mpi operations.
1614 * Add CMake package config generation for CMake projects consuming Mbed TLS.
1615 * config.h has been split into build_info.h and mbedtls_config.h
1616 build_info.h is intended to be included from C code directly, while
1617 mbedtls_config.h is intended to be edited by end users wishing to
1618 change the build configuration, and should generally only be included from
1619 build_info.h.
1620 * The handling of MBEDTLS_CONFIG_FILE has been moved into build_info.h.
1621 * A config file version symbol, MBEDTLS_CONFIG_VERSION was introduced.
1622 Defining it to a particular value will ensure that Mbed TLS interprets
1623 the config file in a way that's compatible with the config file format
1624 used by the Mbed TLS release whose MBEDTLS_VERSION_NUMBER has the same
1625 value.
1626 The only value supported by Mbed TLS 3.0.0 is 0x03000000.
1627 * Various changes to which alert and/or error code may be returned
1628 * during the TLS handshake.
1629 * Implicitly add PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_MESSAGE key usage policy flag when
1630 PSA_KEY_USAGE_SIGN_HASH flag is set and PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_MESSAGE flag
1631 when PSA_KEY_USAGE_VERIFY_HASH flag is set. This usage flag extension
1632 is also applied when loading a key from storage.

1636API changes
1637 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API output buffer size macros to bring them in line
1638 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
1639 * The API glue function mbedtls_ecc_group_of_psa() now takes the curve size
1640 in bits rather than bytes, with an additional flag to indicate if the
1641 size may have been rounded up to a whole number of bytes.
1642 * Renamed the PSA Crypto API AEAD tag length macros to bring them in line
1643 with version 1.0.0 of the specification.
1644
1645Default behavior changes
1646 * In mbedtls_rsa_context objects, the ver field was formerly documented
1647 as always 0. It is now reserved for internal purposes and may take
1648 different values.
1649
1650New deprecations
1651 * PSA_KEY_EXPORT_MAX_SIZE, PSA_HASH_SIZE, PSA_MAC_FINAL_SIZE,
1652 PSA_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE, PSA_MAX_BLOCK_CIPHER_BLOCK_SIZE and
1653 PSA_ALG_TLS12_PSK_TO_MS_MAX_PSK_LEN have been renamed, and the old names
1654 deprecated.
1655 * PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_DEFAULT_TAG_LENGTH and PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_TAG_LENGTH
1656 have been renamed, and the old names deprecated.
1657
1658Features
1659 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now use HMAC_DRBG instead of CTR_DRBG.
1660 CTR_DRBG is used by default if it is available, but you can override
1661 this choice by setting MBEDTLS_PSA_HMAC_DRBG_MD_TYPE at compile time.
1662 Fix #3354.
1663 * Automatic fallback to a software implementation of ECP when
1664 MBEDTLS_ECP_xxx_ALT accelerator hooks are in use can now be turned off
1665 through setting the new configuration flag MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_FALLBACK.
1666 * The PSA crypto subsystem can now be configured to use less static RAM by
1667 tweaking the setting for the maximum amount of keys simultaneously in RAM.
1668 MBEDTLS_PSA_KEY_SLOT_COUNT sets the maximum number of volatile keys that
1669 can exist simultaneously. It has a sensible default if not overridden.
1670 * Partial implementation of the PSA crypto driver interface: Mbed TLS can
1671 now use an external random generator instead of the library's own
1672 entropy collection and DRBG code. Enable MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_EXTERNAL_RNG
1673 and see the documentation of mbedtls_psa_external_get_random() for details.
1674 * Applications using both mbedtls_xxx and psa_xxx functions (for example,
1675 applications using TLS and MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO) can now use the PSA
1676 random generator with mbedtls_xxx functions. See the documentation of
1677 mbedtls_psa_get_random() for details.
1678 * In the PSA API, the policy for a MAC or AEAD algorithm can specify a
1679 minimum MAC or tag length thanks to the new wildcards
1680 PSA_ALG_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_MAC and
1681 PSA_ALG_AEAD_WITH_AT_LEAST_THIS_LENGTH_TAG.
1682
1683Security
1684 * Fix a security reduction in CTR_DRBG when the initial seeding obtained a
1685 nonce from entropy. Applications were affected if they called
1686 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len(), if they called
1687 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_entropy_len() with a size that was 3/2 times the key
1688 length, or when the entropy module uses SHA-256 and CTR_DRBG uses AES-256.
1689 In such cases, a random nonce was necessary to achieve the advertised
1690 security strength, but the code incorrectly used a constant instead of
1691 entropy from the nonce.
1692 Found by John Stroebel in #3819 and fixed in #3973.
1693 * Fix a buffer overflow in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when calculating
1694 |A| - |B| where |B| is larger than |A| and has more limbs (so the
1695 function should return MBEDTLS_ERR_MPI_NEGATIVE_VALUE). Only
1696 applications calling mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() directly are affected:
1697 all calls inside the library were safe since this function is
1698 only called with |A| >= |B|. Reported by Guido Vranken in #4042.
1699 * Fix an errorneous estimation for an internal buffer in
1700 mbedtls_pk_write_key_pem(). If MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE is set to an odd
1701 value the function might fail to write a private RSA keys of the largest
1702 supported size.
1703 Found by Daniel Otte, reported in #4093 and fixed in #4094.
1704 * Fix a stack buffer overflow with mbedtls_net_poll() and
1705 mbedtls_net_recv_timeout() when given a file descriptor that is
1706 beyond FD_SETSIZE. Reported by FigBug in #4169.
1707 * Guard against strong local side channel attack against base64 tables by
1708 making access aceess to them use constant flow code.
1709
1710Bugfix
1711 * Fix use-after-scope error in programs/ssl/ssl_client2.c and ssl_server2.c
1712 * Fix memory leak that occured when calling psa_close_key() on a
1713 wrapped key with MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_SE_C defined.
1714 * Fix an incorrect error code if an RSA private operation glitched.
1715 * Fix a memory leak in an error case in psa_generate_derived_key_internal().
1716 * Fix a resource leak in CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C
1717 is enabled, on platforms where initializing a mutex allocates resources.
1718 This was a regression introduced in the previous release. Reported in
1719 #4017, #4045 and #4071.
1720 * Ensure that calling mbedtls_rsa_free() or mbedtls_entropy_free()
1721 twice is safe. This happens for RSA when some Mbed TLS library functions
1722 fail. Such a double-free was not safe when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C was
1723 enabled on platforms where freeing a mutex twice is not safe.
1724 * Fix a resource leak in a bad-arguments case of mbedtls_rsa_gen_key()
1725 when MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is enabled on platforms where initializing
1726 a mutex allocates resources.
1727 * Fixes a bug where, if the library was configured to include support for
1728 both the old SE interface and the new PSA driver interface, external keys were
1729 not loaded from storage. This was fixed by #3996.
1730 * This change makes 'mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_basic_constraints'
1731 consistent with RFC 5280 4.2.1.9 which says: "Conforming CAs MUST
1732 include this extension in all CA certificates that contain public keys
1733 used to validate digital signatures on certificates and MUST mark the
1734 extension as critical in such certificates." Previous to this change,
1735 the extension was always marked as non-critical. This was fixed by
1736 #3698.
1737
1738Changes
1739 * A new library C file psa_crypto_client.c has been created to contain
1740 the PSA code needed by a PSA crypto client when the PSA crypto
1741 implementation is not included into the library.
1742 * On recent enough versions of FreeBSD and DragonFlyBSD, the entropy module
1743 now uses the getrandom syscall instead of reading from /dev/urandom.

1747API changes
1748 * The numerical values of the PSA Crypto API macros have been updated to
1749 conform to version 1.0.0 of the specification.
1750 * PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER replaces PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4.
1751 The underlying stream cipher is determined by the key type
1752 (PSA_KEY_TYPE_CHACHA20 or PSA_KEY_TYPE_ARC4).
1753 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
1754 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() no longer accept NIST_KW contexts,
1755 as they have no way to check if the output buffer is large enough.
1756 Please use mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
1757 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext() instead. Credit to OSS-Fuzz and
1758 Cryptofuzz. Fixes #3665.

1760Requirement changes
Janos Follathe9216262020-12-10 11:03:01 +00001761 * Update the minimum required CMake version to 2.8.12. This silences a
1762 warning on CMake 3.19.0. #3801
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001763
1764New deprecations
Bence Szépkútife9a4252021-02-08 18:13:02 +01001765 * PSA_ALG_CHACHA20 and PSA_ALG_ARC4 have been deprecated.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001766 Use PSA_ALG_STREAM_CIPHER instead.
1767 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
1768 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() are deprecated in favour of the new
1769 functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt_ext() and
1770 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt_ext(). Please note that with AEAD ciphers,
1771 these new functions always append the tag to the ciphertext, and include
1772 the tag in the ciphertext length.
1773
1774Features
Janos Follathd6ce1162020-12-09 16:32:01 +00001775 * Partial implementation of the new PSA Crypto accelerator APIs. (Symmetric
1776 ciphers, asymmetric signing/verification and key generation, validate_key
1777 entry point, and export_public_key interface.)
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001778 * Add support for ECB to the PSA cipher API.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001779 * In PSA, allow using a key declared with a base key agreement algorithm
1780 in combined key agreement and derivation operations, as long as the key
1781 agreement algorithm in use matches the algorithm the key was declared with.
1782 This is currently non-standard behaviour, but expected to make it into a
1783 future revision of the PSA Crypto standard.
1784 * Add MBEDTLS_TARGET_PREFIX CMake variable, which is prefixed to the mbedtls,
1785 mbedcrypto, mbedx509 and apidoc CMake target names. This can be used by
1786 external CMake projects that include this one to avoid CMake target name
1787 clashes. The default value of this variable is "", so default target names
1788 are unchanged.
1789 * Add support for DTLS-SRTP as defined in RFC 5764. Contributed by Johan
1790 Pascal, improved by Ron Eldor.
1791 * In the PSA API, it is no longer necessary to open persistent keys:
1792 operations now accept the key identifier. The type psa_key_handle_t is now
1793 identical to psa_key_id_t instead of being platform-defined. This bridges
1794 the last major gap to compliance with the PSA Cryptography specification
1795 version 1.0.0. Opening persistent keys is still supported for backward
1796 compatibility, but will be deprecated and later removed in future
1797 releases.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001798 * PSA_AEAD_NONCE_LENGTH, PSA_AEAD_NONCE_MAX_SIZE, PSA_CIPHER_IV_LENGTH and
1799 PSA_CIPHER_IV_MAX_SIZE macros have been added as defined in version
1800 1.0.0 of the PSA Crypto API specification.
1801
1802Security
1803 * The functions mbedtls_cipher_auth_encrypt() and
1804 mbedtls_cipher_auth_decrypt() would write past the minimum documented
1805 size of the output buffer when used with NIST_KW. As a result, code using
1806 those functions as documented with NIST_KW could have a buffer overwrite
1807 of up to 15 bytes, with consequences ranging up to arbitrary code
1808 execution depending on the location of the output buffer.
1809 * Limit the size of calculations performed by mbedtls_mpi_exp_mod to
1810 MBEDTLS_MPI_MAX_SIZE to prevent a potential denial of service when
1811 generating Diffie-Hellman key pairs. Credit to OSS-Fuzz.
1812 * A failure of the random generator was ignored in mbedtls_mpi_fill_random(),
1813 which is how most uses of randomization in asymmetric cryptography
1814 (including key generation, intermediate value randomization and blinding)
1815 are implemented. This could cause failures or the silent use of non-random
1816 values. A random generator can fail if it needs reseeding and cannot not
1817 obtain entropy, or due to an internal failure (which, for Mbed TLS's own
1818 CTR_DRBG or HMAC_DRBG, can only happen due to a misconfiguration).
1819 * Fix a compliance issue whereby we were not checking the tag on the
1820 algorithm parameters (only the size) when comparing the signature in the
1821 description part of the cert to the real signature. This meant that a
1822 NULL algorithm parameters entry would look identical to an array of REAL
1823 (size zero) to the library and thus the certificate would be considered
1824 valid. However, if the parameters do not match in *any* way then the
1825 certificate should be considered invalid, and indeed OpenSSL marks these
1826 certs as invalid when mbedtls did not.
1827 Many thanks to guidovranken who found this issue via differential fuzzing
1828 and reported it in #3629.
1829 * Zeroising of local buffers and variables which are used for calculations
1830 in mbedtls_pkcs5_pbkdf2_hmac(), mbedtls_internal_sha*_process(),
1831 mbedtls_internal_md*_process() and mbedtls_internal_ripemd160_process()
1832 functions to erase sensitive data from memory. Reported by

1835Bugfix
Janos Follath76027f62020-12-09 16:28:35 +00001836 * Fix an invalid (but nonzero) return code from mbedtls_pk_parse_subpubkey()
1837 when the input has trailing garbage. Fixes #2512.
Janos Follath7ac5fd12020-12-09 15:03:46 +00001838 * Fix build failure in configurations where MBEDTLS_USE_PSA_CRYPTO is
1839 enabled but ECDSA is disabled. Contributed by jdurkop. Fixes #3294.
1840 * Include the psa_constant_names generated source code in the source tree
1841 instead of generating it at build time. Fixes #3524.
1842 * Fix rsa_prepare_blinding() to retry when the blinding value is not
1843 invertible (mod N), instead of returning MBEDTLS_ERR_RSA_RNG_FAILED. This
1844 addresses a regression but is rare in practice (approx. 1 in 2/sqrt(N)).
1845 Found by Synopsys Coverity, fix contributed by Peter Kolbus (Garmin).
1846 Fixes #3647.
1847 * Use socklen_t on Android and other POSIX-compliant system
1848 * Fix the build when the macro _GNU_SOURCE is defined to a non-empty value.
1849 Fix #3432.
1850 * Consistently return PSA_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT on invalid cipher input
1851 sizes (instead of PSA_ERROR_BAD_STATE in some cases) to make the
1852 psa_cipher_* functions compliant with the PSA Crypto API specification.
1853 * mbedtls_ecp_curve_list() now lists Curve25519 and Curve448 under the names
1854 "x25519" and "x448". These curves support ECDH but not ECDSA. If you need
1855 only the curves that support ECDSA, filter the list with
1856 mbedtls_ecdsa_can_do().
1857 * Fix psa_generate_key() returning an error when asked to generate
1858 an ECC key pair on Curve25519 or secp244k1.
1859 * Fix psa_key_derivation_output_key() to allow the output of a combined key
1860 agreement and subsequent key derivation operation to be used as a key
1861 inside of the PSA Crypto core.
1862 * Fix handling of EOF against 0xff bytes and on platforms with unsigned
1863 chars. Fixes a build failure on platforms where char is unsigned. Fixes
1864 #3794.
1865 * Fix an off-by-one error in the additional data length check for
1866 CCM, which allowed encryption with a non-standard length field.
1867 Fixes #3719.
1868 * Correct the default IV size for mbedtls_cipher_info_t structures using
1869 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB to 0, since ECB mode ciphers don't use IVs.
1870 * Make arc4random_buf available on NetBSD and OpenBSD when _POSIX_C_SOURCE is
1871 defined. Fix contributed in #3571.
1872 * Fix conditions for including string.h in error.c. Fixes #3866.
1873 * psa_set_key_id() now also sets the lifetime to persistent for keys located
1874 in a secure element.
1875 * Attempting to create a volatile key with a non-zero key identifier now
1876 fails. Previously the key identifier was just ignored when creating a
1877 volatile key.
1878 * Attempting to create or register a key with a key identifier in the vendor
1879 range now fails.
1880 * Fix build failures on GCC 11. Fixes #3782.
1881 * Add missing arguments of debug message in mbedtls_ssl_decrypt_buf.
1882 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_mpi_sub_abs() when the result was negative
1883 (an error condition) and the second operand was aliased to the result.
1884 * Fix a case in elliptic curve arithmetic where an out-of-memory condition
1885 could go undetected, resulting in an incorrect result.
1886 * In CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG, don't reset the reseed interval in seed().
1887 Fixes #2927.
1888 * In PEM writing functions, fill the trailing part of the buffer with null
1889 bytes. This guarantees that the corresponding parsing function can read
1890 the buffer back, which was the case for mbedtls_x509write_{crt,csr}_pem
1891 until this property was inadvertently broken in Mbed TLS 2.19.0.
1892 Fixes #3682.
1893 * Fix a build failure that occurred with the MBEDTLS_AES_SETKEY_DEC_ALT
1894 option on. In this configuration key management methods that are required
1895 for MBEDTLS_CIPHER_MODE_XTS were excluded from the build and made it fail.
1896 Fixes #3818. Reported by John Stroebel.

1898Changes
1899 * Reduce stack usage significantly during sliding window exponentiation.
1900 Reported in #3591 and fix contributed in #3592 by Daniel Otte.
1901 * The PSA persistent storage format is updated to always store the key bits
1902 attribute. No automatic upgrade path is provided. Previously stored keys
1903 must be erased, or manually upgraded based on the key storage format
1904 specification (docs/architecture/mbed-crypto-storage-specification.md).
1905 Fixes #3740.
1906 * Remove the zeroization of a pointer variable in AES rounds. It was valid
1907 but spurious and misleading since it looked like a mistaken attempt to
1908 zeroize the pointed-to buffer. Reported by Antonio de la Piedra, CEA
1909 Leti, France.

1929 * The new function mbedtls_ecp_write_key() exports private ECC keys back to
1930 a byte buffer. It is the inverse of the existing mbedtls_ecp_read_key().
1931 * Support building on e2k (Elbrus) architecture: correctly enable
1932 -Wformat-signedness, and fix the code that causes signed-one-bit-field
1933 and sign-compare warnings. Contributed by makise-homura (Igor Molchanov)

1936Security
1937 * Fix a vulnerability in the verification of X.509 certificates when
1938 matching the expected common name (the cn argument of
1939 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify()) with the actual certificate name: when the
1940 subjecAltName extension is present, the expected name was compared to any
1941 name in that extension regardless of its type. This means that an
1942 attacker could for example impersonate a 4-bytes or 16-byte domain by
1943 getting a certificate for the corresponding IPv4 or IPv6 (this would
1944 require the attacker to control that IP address, though). Similar attacks
1945 using other subjectAltName name types might be possible. Found and
1946 reported by kFYatek in #3498.
1947 * When checking X.509 CRLs, a certificate was only considered as revoked if
1948 its revocationDate was in the past according to the local clock if
1949 available. In particular, on builds without MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE,
1950 certificates were never considered as revoked. On builds with
1951 MBEDTLS_HAVE_TIME_DATE, an attacker able to control the local clock (for
1952 example, an untrusted OS attacking a secure enclave) could prevent
1953 revocation of certificates via CRLs. Fixed by no longer checking the
1954 revocationDate field, in accordance with RFC 5280. Reported by
1955 yuemonangong in #3340. Reported independently and fixed by
1956 Raoul Strackx and Jethro Beekman in #3433.
1957 * In (D)TLS record decryption, when using a CBC ciphersuites without the
1958 Encrypt-then-Mac extension, use constant code flow memory access patterns
1959 to extract and check the MAC. This is an improvement to the existing
1960 countermeasure against Lucky 13 attacks. The previous countermeasure was
1961 effective against network-based attackers, but less so against local
1962 attackers. The new countermeasure defends against local attackers, even
1963 if they have access to fine-grained measurements. In particular, this
1964 fixes a local Lucky 13 cache attack found and reported by Tuba Yavuz,
1965 Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihan) Bai, Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler
1966 (University of Florida) and Dave Tian (Purdue University).
1967 * Fix side channel in RSA private key operations and static (finite-field)
1968 Diffie-Hellman. An adversary with precise enough timing and memory access
1969 information (typically an untrusted operating system attacking a secure
1970 enclave) could bypass an existing counter-measure (base blinding) and
1971 potentially fully recover the private key.
1972 * Fix a 1-byte buffer overread in mbedtls_x509_crl_parse_der().
1973 Credit to OSS-Fuzz for detecting the problem and to Philippe Antoine
1974 for pinpointing the problematic code.
1975 * Zeroising of plaintext buffers in mbedtls_ssl_read() to erase unused
1976 application data from memory. Reported in #689 by
1977 Johan Uppman Bruce of Sectra.
1978

1981 permission.
Janos Follath6012f0e2020-08-26 15:32:10 +01001982 * Use local labels in mbedtls_padlock_has_support() to fix an invalid symbol
1983 redefinition if the function is inlined.
Janos Follathc18a7b82020-08-26 14:49:16 +01001984 Reported in #3451 and fix contributed in #3452 by okhowang.
1985 * Fix the endianness of Curve25519 keys imported/exported through the PSA
1986 APIs. psa_import_key and psa_export_key will now correctly expect/output
1987 Montgomery keys in little-endian as defined by RFC7748. Contributed by
1988 Steven Cooreman in #3425.
1989 * Fix build errors when the only enabled elliptic curves are Montgomery
1990 curves. Raised by signpainter in #941 and by Taiki-San in #1412. This
1991 also fixes missing declarations reported by Steven Cooreman in #1147.
1992 * Fix self-test failure when the only enabled short Weierstrass elliptic
1993 curve is secp192k1. Fixes #2017.
1994 * PSA key import will now correctly import a Curve25519/Curve448 public key
1995 instead of erroring out. Contributed by Steven Cooreman in #3492.
1996 * Use arc4random_buf on NetBSD instead of rand implementation with cyclical
1997 lower bits. Fix contributed in #3540.
1998 * Fix a memory leak in mbedtls_md_setup() when using HMAC under low memory
1999 conditions. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #3486.
2000 * Fix bug in redirection of unit test outputs on platforms where stdout is
2001 defined as a macro. First reported in #2311 and fix contributed in #3528.
2002
2003Changes
2004 * Only pass -Wformat-signedness to versions of GCC that support it. Reported
2005 in #3478 and fix contributed in #3479 by okhowang.
2006 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_x509write_csr_der() which
2007 previously could lead to stack overflow on constrained devices.
2008 Contributed by Doru Gucea and Simon Leet in #3464.
2009 * Undefine the ASSERT macro before defining it locally, in case it is defined
2010 in a platform header. Contributed by Abdelatif Guettouche in #3557.
2011 * Update copyright notices to use Linux Foundation guidance. As a result,
2012 the copyright of contributors other than Arm is now acknowledged, and the
2013 years of publishing are no longer tracked in the source files. This also
2014 eliminates the need for the lines declaring the files to be part of
2015 MbedTLS. Fixes #3457.
2016 * Add the command line parameter key_pwd to the ssl_client2 and ssl_server2
2017 example applications which allows to provide a password for the key file
2018 specified through the existing key_file argument. This allows the use of
2019 these applications with password-protected key files. Analogously but for
2020 ssl_server2 only, add the command line parameter key_pwd2 which allows to
2021 set a password for the key file provided through the existing key_file2
2022 argument.

2027 * In the experimental PSA secure element interface, change the encoding of
2028 key lifetimes to encode a persistence level and the location. Although C
2029 prototypes do not effectively change, code calling
2030 psa_register_se_driver() must be modified to pass the driver's location
2031 instead of the keys' lifetime. If the library is upgraded on an existing

2033 removable through Mbed TLS after the upgrade.

2037 high- and low-level error codes, complementing mbedtls_strerror()
2038 which constructs a string for any error code, including compound
2039 ones, but requires a writable buffer. Contributed by Gaurav Aggarwal
2040 in #3176.
2041 * The new utility programs/ssl/ssl_context_info prints a human-readable
2042 dump of an SSL context saved with mbedtls_ssl_context_save().
2043 * Add support for midipix, a POSIX layer for Microsoft Windows.
2044 * Add new mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() routine which allows
2045 parsing unsupported certificate extensions via user provided callback.
2046 Contributed by Nicola Di Lieto <nicola.dilieto@gmail.com> in #3243 as
2047 a solution to #3241.
2048 * Pass the "certificate policies" extension to the callback supplied to
2049 mbedtls_x509_crt_parse_der_with_ext_cb() if it contains unsupported
2050 policies (#3419).
2051 * Added support to entropy_poll for the kern.arandom syscall supported on

2058 Ming-Wei Shih, Prasun Gera, Taesoo Kim and Hyesoon Kim (Georgia Institute
2059 of Technology); and Marcus Peinado (Microsoft Research). Reported by Raoul
2060 Strackx (Fortanix) in #3394.
2061 * Fix side channel in mbedtls_ecp_check_pub_priv() and
2062 mbedtls_pk_parse_key() / mbedtls_pk_parse_keyfile() (when loading a
2063 private key that didn't include the uncompressed public key), as well as
2064 mbedtls_ecp_mul() / mbedtls_ecp_mul_restartable() when called with a NULL
2065 f_rng argument. An attacker with access to precise enough timing and
2066 memory access information (typically an untrusted operating system
2067 attacking a secure enclave) could fully recover the ECC private key.
2068 Found and reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
2069 * Fix issue in Lucky 13 counter-measure that could make it ineffective when
2070 hardware accelerators were used (using one of the MBEDTLS_SHAxxx_ALT
2071 macros). This would cause the original Lucky 13 attack to be possible in
2072 those configurations, allowing an active network attacker to recover
2073 plaintext after repeated timing measurements under some conditions.
2074 Reported and fix suggested by Luc Perneel in #3246.
2075
2076Bugfix
2077 * Fix the Visual Studio Release x64 build configuration for mbedtls itself.
2078 Completes a previous fix in Mbed TLS 2.19 that only fixed the build for
2079 the example programs. Reported in #1430 and fix contributed by irwir.
2080 * Fix undefined behavior in X.509 certificate parsing if the
2081 pathLenConstraint basic constraint value is equal to INT_MAX.
2082 The actual effect with almost every compiler is the intended
2083 behavior, so this is unlikely to be exploitable anywhere. #3192
2084 * Fix issue with a detected HW accelerated record error not being exposed
2085 due to shadowed variable. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3310.
2086 * Avoid NULL pointer dereferencing if mbedtls_ssl_free() is called with a
2087 NULL pointer argument. Contributed by Sander Visser in #3312.
2088 * Fix potential linker errors on dual world platforms by inlining
2089 mbedtls_gcc_group_to_psa(). This allows the pk.c module to link separately
2090 from psa_crypto.c. Fixes #3300.
2091 * Remove dead code in X.509 certificate parsing. Contributed by irwir in
2092 #2855.
2093 * Include asn1.h in error.c. Fixes #3328 reported by David Hu.
2094 * Fix potential memory leaks in ecp_randomize_jac() and ecp_randomize_mxz()
2095 when PRNG function fails. Contributed by Jonas Lejeune in #3318.
2096 * Remove unused macros from MSVC projects. Reported in #3297 and fix
2097 submitted in #3333 by irwir.
2098 * Add additional bounds checks in ssl_write_client_hello() preventing
2099 output buffer overflow if the configuration declared a buffer that was
2100 too small.
2101 * Set _POSIX_C_SOURCE to at least 200112L in C99 code. Reported in #3420 and
2102 fix submitted in #3421 by Nia Alarie.
2103 * Fix building library/net_sockets.c and the ssl_mail_client program on
2104 NetBSD. Contributed by Nia Alarie in #3422.
2105 * Fix false positive uninitialised variable reported by cpp-check.
2106 Contributed by Sander Visser in #3311.
2107 * Update iv and len context pointers manually when reallocating buffers
2108 using the MBEDTLS_SSL_VARIABLE_BUFFER_LENGTH feature. This caused issues
2109 when receiving a connection with CID, when these fields were shifted
2110 in ssl_parse_record_header().

2113 * Fix warnings about signedness issues in format strings. The build is now
2114 clean of -Wformat-signedness warnings. Contributed by Kenneth Soerensen
2115 in #3153.
2116 * Fix minor performance issue in operations on Curve25519 caused by using a
2117 suboptimal modular reduction in one place. Found and fix contributed by
2118 Aurelien Jarno in #3209.
2119 * Combine identical cases in switch statements in md.c. Contributed
2120 by irwir in #3208.
2121 * Simplify a bounds check in ssl_write_certificate_request(). Contributed
2122 by irwir in #3150.
2123 * Unify the example programs termination to call mbedtls_exit() instead of
2124 using a return command. This has been done to enable customization of the
2125 behavior in bare metal environments.
2126 * Fix mbedtls_x509_dn_gets to escape non-ASCII characters as "?".
2127 Contributed by Koh M. Nakagawa in #3326.
2128 * Use FindPython3 when cmake version >= 3.15.0
2129 * Abort the ClientHello writing function as soon as some extension doesn't
2130 fit into the record buffer. Previously, such extensions were silently
2131 dropped. As a consequence, the TLS handshake now fails when the output
2132 buffer is not large enough to hold the ClientHello.
2133 * The unit tests now rely on header files in tests/include/test and source
2134 files in tests/src. When building with make or cmake, the files in
2135 tests/src are compiled and the resulting object linked into each test
2136 executable.
2137 * The ECP module, enabled by `MBEDTLS_ECP_C`, now depends on
2138 `MBEDTLS_CTR_DRBG_C` or `MBEDTLS_HMAC_DRBG_C` for some side-channel
2139 coutermeasures. If side channels are not a concern, this dependency can
2140 be avoided by enabling the new option `MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG`.

2159 (RFC 6347 section 4.2.8): an attacker able to send forged UDP packets to
2160 the server could cause it to drop established associations with
2161 legitimate clients, resulting in a Denial of Service. This could only

2201 library which allows TLS authentication to use keys stored in a

2205 * Fix potential memory overread when performing an ECDSA signature
2206 operation. The overread only happens with cryptographically low
2207 probability (of the order of 2^-n where n is the bitsize of the curve)
2208 unless the RNG is broken, and could result in information disclosure or
2209 denial of service (application crash or extra resource consumption).

2222 * Change the encoding of key types and curves in the PSA API. The new
2223 values are aligned with the upcoming release of the PSA Crypto API
2224 specification version 1.0.0. The main change which may break some
2225 existing code is that elliptic curve key types no longer encode the
2226 exact curve: a psa_ecc_curve_t or psa_key_type_t value only encodes
2227 a curve family and the key size determines the exact curve (for example,
2228 PSA_ECC_CURVE_SECP_R1 with 256 bits is P256R1). ARMmbed/mbed-crypto#330

Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002247 * The initial seeding of a CTR_DRBG instance makes a second call to the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002248 entropy function to obtain entropy for a nonce if the entropy size is less
2249 than 3/2 times the key size. In case you want to disable the extra call to
Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002250 grab entropy, you can call mbedtls_ctr_drbg_set_nonce_len() to force the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002251 nonce length to 0.
2252
2253Security
Gilles Peskine8c7d2c22020-01-22 19:02:09 +01002254 * Enforce that mbedtls_entropy_func() gathers a total of
2255 MBEDTLS_ENTROPY_BLOCK_SIZE bytes or more from strong sources. In the
Gilles Peskine6a4c3402020-01-22 18:28:24 +01002256 default configuration, on a platform with a single entropy source, the
2257 entropy module formerly only grabbed 32 bytes, which is good enough for
2258 security if the source is genuinely strong, but less than the expected 64
2259 bytes (size of the entropy accumulator).
Gilles Peskinee3b285d2020-01-27 14:01:42 +01002260 * Zeroize local variables in mbedtls_internal_aes_encrypt() and
2261 mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt() before exiting the function. The value of
2262 these variables can be used to recover the last round key. To follow best
2263 practice and to limit the impact of buffer overread vulnerabilities (like
2264 Heartbleed) we need to zeroize them before exiting the function.
2265 Issue reported by Tuba Yavuz, Farhaan Fowze, Ken (Yihang) Bai,
2266 Grant Hernandez, and Kevin Butler (University of Florida) and
2267 Dave Tian (Purdue University).
2268 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA. Our bignum implementation is not
2269 constant time/constant trace, so side channel attacks can retrieve the
2270 blinded value, factor it (as it is smaller than RSA keys and not guaranteed
2271 to have only large prime factors), and then, by brute force, recover the
2272 key. Reported by Alejandro Cabrera Aldaya and Billy Brumley.
2273 * Fix side channel vulnerability in ECDSA key generation. Obtaining precise
2274 timings on the comparison in the key generation enabled the attacker to
2275 learn leading bits of the ephemeral key used during ECDSA signatures and to
2276 recover the private key. Reported by Jeremy Dubeuf.
2277 * Catch failure of AES functions in mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random(). Uncaught
2278 failures could happen with alternative implementations of AES. Bug
2279 reported and fix proposed by Johan Uppman Bruce and Christoffer Lauri,

Jaeden Amero4197f0e2019-09-06 14:40:10 +01002353 * Fix a missing error detection in ECJPAKE. This could have caused a
2354 predictable shared secret if a hardware accelerator failed and the other
2355 side of the key exchange had a similar bug.
Gilles Peskine52157832018-08-11 00:51:04 +02002356 * When writing a private EC key, use a constant size for the private
2357 value, as specified in RFC 5915. Previously, the value was written
2358 as an ASN.1 INTEGER, which caused the size of the key to leak
2359 about 1 bit of information on average and could cause the value to be
2360 1 byte too large for the output buffer.
Janos Follath12fff152019-01-04 16:18:46 +00002361 * The deterministic ECDSA calculation reused the scheme's HMAC-DRBG to
2362 implement blinding. Because of this for the same key and message the same
2363 blinding value was generated. This reduced the effectiveness of the
2364 countermeasure and leaked information about the private key through side

Paul Bakker5121ce52009-01-03 21:22:43 +00002498 in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-dtls-connection-id-05.
2499 The Connection ID extension allows to keep DTLS connections beyond the
Paul Bakker99ed6782011-01-05 14:48:42 +00002500 lifetime of the underlying transport by adding a connection identifier
2501 to the DTLS record header. This identifier can be used to associated an
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002502 incoming record with the correct connection data even after the peer has
2503 changed its IP or port. The feature is enabled at compile-time by setting
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +00002504 MBEDTLS_SSL_DTLS_CONNECTION_ID (disabled by default), and at run-time
2505 through the new APIs mbedtls_ssl_conf_cid() and mbedtls_ssl_set_cid().

2542 mbedTLS configuration only SHA-2 signed certificates are accepted.
2543 This certificate is used in the demo server programs, which lead the
2544 client programs to fail at the peer's certificate verification
2545 due to an unacceptable hash signature. The certificate has been

2559Features
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002560 * Add a new X.509 API call `mbedtls_x509_parse_der_nocopy()`
2561 which allows copy-less parsing of DER encoded X.509 CRTs,
Hanno Beckerac4172c2019-01-31 09:27:04 +00002562 at the cost of additional lifetime constraints on the input
2563 buffer, but at the benefit of reduced RAM consumption.
2564 * Add a new function mbedtls_asn1_write_named_bitstring() to write ASN.1
2565 named bitstring in DER as required by RFC 5280 Appendix B.
2566 * Add MBEDTLS_REMOVE_3DES_CIPHERSUITES to allow removing 3DES ciphersuites
2567 from the default list (enabled by default). See
2568 https://sweet32.info/SWEET32_CCS16.pdf.

Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002572 See the Features section for more information.
2573 * Allow to opt in to the removal the API mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
2574 for the benefit of saving RAM, by disabling the new compile-time
2575 option MBEDTLS_SSL_KEEP_PEER_CERTIFICATE (enabled by default for
2576 API stability). Disabling this option makes mbedtls_ssl_get_peer_cert()
2577 always return NULL, and removes the peer_cert field from the
2578 mbedtls_ssl_session structure which otherwise stores the peer's
Gilles Peskineccf8ba02018-11-07 22:39:16 +01002579 certificate.

2581Security
2582 * Make mbedtls_ecdh_get_params return an error if the second key
2583 belongs to a different group from the first. Before, if an application
2584 passed keys that belonged to different group, the first key's data was
2585 interpreted according to the second group, which could lead to either
2586 an error or a meaningless output from mbedtls_ecdh_get_params. In the
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002587 latter case, this could expose at most 5 bits of the private key.

2593 Raised as a comment in #1996.
2594 * Reduce the stack consumption of mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() which could
2595 previously lead to a stack overflow on constrained targets.
2596 * Add `MBEDTLS_SELF_TEST` for the mbedtls_self_test functions
2597 in the header files, which missed the precompilation check. #971
2598 * Fix returning the value 1 when mbedtls_ecdsa_genkey failed.

2608 * Ensure that unused bits are zero when writing ASN.1 bitstrings when using
2609 mbedtls_asn1_write_bitstring().
2610 * Fix issue when writing the named bitstrings in KeyUsage and NsCertType
2611 extensions in CSRs and CRTs that caused these bitstrings to not be encoded
Simon Butcher41f95192018-12-01 18:42:47 +00002612 correctly as trailing zeroes were not accounted for as unused bits in the

2618 * Include configuration file in all header files that use configuration,
2619 instead of relying on other header files that they include.
2620 Inserted as an enhancement for #1371
Andrzej Kurek8764ccc2019-02-05 04:57:13 -05002621 * Add support for alternative CSR headers, as used by Microsoft and defined

2623 * Correct many misspellings. Fixed by MisterDA #2371.
2624 * Provide an abstraction of vsnprintf to allow alternative implementations
2625 for platforms that don't provide it. Based on contributions by Joris Aerts
2626 and Nathaniel Wesley Filardo.
2627 * Fix clobber list in MIPS assembly for large integer multiplication.
2628 Previously, this could lead to functionally incorrect assembly being
2629 produced by some optimizing compilers, showing up as failures in
k-stachowiakc5a4a132019-02-05 09:11:58 +01002630 e.g. RSA or ECC signature operations. Reported in #1722, fix suggested
2631 by Aurelien Jarno and submitted by Jeffrey Martin.
Andres Amaya Garciaaabe52f2018-10-16 22:18:53 +01002632 * Reduce the complexity of the timing tests. They were assuming more than the
2633 underlying OS actually guarantees.
k-stachowiakcddbd012019-02-19 12:40:34 +01002634 * Fix configuration queries in ssl-opt.h. #2030

Andres Amaya Garciaf8dffb32019-02-19 20:14:00 +00002636 * Re-enable certain interoperability tests in ssl-opt.sh which had previously
2637 been disabled for lack of a sufficiently recent version of GnuTLS on the CI.
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002638 * Ciphersuites based on 3DES now have the lowest priority by default when

2642
2643Features
2644 * Add a new config.h option of MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS that enables validation
2645 of parameters in the API. This allows detection of obvious misuses of the
2646 API, such as passing NULL pointers. The API of existing functions hasn't
2647 changed, but requirements on parameters have been made more explicit in
2648 the documentation. See the corresponding API documentation for each
2649 function to see for which parameter values it is defined. This feature is
2650 disabled by default. See its API documentation in config.h for additional
2651 steps you have to take when enabling it.
2652
2653API Changes
2654 * The following functions in the random generator modules have been
2655 deprecated and replaced as shown below. The new functions change
2656 the return type from void to int to allow returning error codes when
2657 using MBEDTLS_<MODULE>_ALT for the underlying AES or message digest
2658 primitive. Fixes #1798.
2659 mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret()
2660 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() -> mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret()
2661 * Extend ECDH interface to enable alternative implementations.
2662 * Deprecate error codes of the form MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_INVALID_KEY_LENGTH for
2663 ARIA, CAMELLIA and Blowfish. These error codes will be replaced by
2664 the more generic per-module error codes MBEDTLS_ERR_xxx_BAD_INPUT_DATA.
2665 * Additional parameter validation checks have been added for the following
2666 modules - AES, ARIA, Blowfish, CAMELLIA, CCM, GCM, DHM, ECP, ECDSA, ECDH,
2667 ECJPAKE, SHA, Chacha20 and Poly1305, cipher, pk, RSA, and MPI.
2668 Where modules have had parameter validation added, existing parameter
2669 checks may have changed. Some modules, such as Chacha20 had existing
2670 parameter validation whereas other modules had little. This has now been
2671 changed so that the same level of validation is present in all modules, and
2672 that it is now optional with the MBEDTLS_CHECK_PARAMS flag which by default
2673 is off. That means that checks which were previously present by default
2674 will no longer be.
2675
2676New deprecations
2677 * Deprecate mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update
2678 in favor of functions that can return an error code.
2679
2680Bugfix
2681 * Fix for Clang, which was reporting a warning for the bignum.c inline
2682 assembly for AMD64 targets creating string literals greater than those
2683 permitted by the ISO C99 standard. Found by Aaron Jones. Fixes #482.
2684 * Fix runtime error in `mbedtls_platform_entropy_poll()` when run
2685 through qemu user emulation. Reported and fix suggested by randombit
2686 in #1212. Fixes #1212.
2687 * Fix an unsafe bounds check when restoring an SSL session from a ticket.
2688 This could lead to a buffer overflow, but only in case ticket authentication
2689 was broken. Reported and fix suggested by Guido Vranken in #659.
2690 * Add explicit integer to enumeration type casts to example program
2691 programs/pkey/gen_key which previously led to compilation failure
2692 on some toolchains. Reported by phoenixmcallister. Fixes #2170.
2693 * Fix double initialization of ECC hardware that made some accelerators
2694 hang.
2695 * Clarify documentation of mbedtls_ssl_set_own_cert() regarding the absence

2722 RSA decryption (i.e. ciphersuites whose name contains RSA but not
2723 (EC)DH(E)). Discovered by Eyal Ronen (Weizmann Institute), Robert Gillham

2727 in the paper available here: http://cat.eyalro.net/cat.pdf CVE-2018-19608
2728 * In mbedtls_mpi_write_binary(), don't leak the exact size of the number
2729 via branching and memory access patterns. An attacker who could submit
2730 a plaintext for RSA PKCS#1 v1.5 decryption but only observe the timing
2731 of the decryption and not its result could nonetheless decrypt RSA
2732 plaintexts and forge RSA signatures. Other asymmetric algorithms may
2733 have been similarly vulnerable. Reported by Eyal Ronen, Robert Gillham,
2734 Daniel Genkin, Adi Shamir, David Wong and Yuval Yarom.
2735 * Wipe sensitive buffers on the stack in the CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG
2736 modules.
2737
2738API Changes
2739 * The new functions mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update_ret() and
2740 mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update_ret() are similar to mbedtls_ctr_drbg_update()
2741 and mbedtls_hmac_drbg_update() respectively, but the new functions
Andrzej Kurekc470b6b2019-01-31 08:20:20 -05002742 report errors whereas the old functions return void. We recommend that
Simon Butcherc1b98922018-11-19 18:31:40 +00002743 applications use the new functions.

Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002748 * Fix overly strict DN comparison when looking for CRLs belonging to a
2749 particular CA. This previously led to ignoring CRLs when the CRL's issuer
2750 name and the CA's subject name differed in their string encoding (e.g.,
2751 one using PrintableString and the other UTF8String) or in the choice of
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01002752 upper and lower case. Reported by Henrik Andersson of Bosch GmbH in issue
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002753 #1784.
Hanno Beckerdc71ef82018-10-08 13:51:38 +01002754 * Fix a flawed bounds check in server PSK hint parsing. In case the
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002755 incoming message buffer was placed within the first 64KiB of address
2756 space and a PSK-(EC)DHE ciphersuite was used, this allowed an attacker
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01002757 to trigger a memory access up to 64KiB beyond the incoming message buffer,
2758 potentially leading to an application crash or information disclosure.
2759 * Fix mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() to use more rounds of probabilistic testing. The
2760 previous settings for the number of rounds made it practical for an
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002761 adversary to construct non-primes that would be erroneously accepted as
2762 primes with high probability. This does not have an impact on the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01002763 security of TLS, but can matter in other contexts with numbers chosen
2764 potentially by an adversary that should be prime and can be validated.
2765 For example, the number of rounds was enough to securely generate RSA key
2766 pairs or Diffie-Hellman parameters, but was insufficient to validate
2767 Diffie-Hellman parameters properly.

Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002771Features
2772 * Add support for temporarily suspending expensive ECC computations after
2773 some configurable amount of operations. This is intended to be used in
2774 constrained, single-threaded systems where ECC is time consuming and can
2775 block other operations until they complete. This is disabled by default,
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf0bbd7e2018-10-15 13:22:41 +02002776 but can be enabled by MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE at compile time and
2777 configured by mbedtls_ecp_set_max_ops() at runtime. It applies to the new
2778 xxx_restartable functions in ECP, ECDSA, PK and X.509 (CRL not supported
2779 yet), and to existing functions in ECDH and SSL (currently only
Simon Butcher4a865ef2018-10-28 18:00:51 +00002780 implemented client-side, for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphersuites in TLS 1.2,
2781 including client authentication).
2782 * Add support for Arm CPU DSP extensions to accelerate asymmetric key
2783 operations. On CPUs where the extensions are available, they can accelerate
Simon Butcherb35e59d2018-11-19 15:49:26 +00002784 MPI multiplications used in ECC and RSA cryptography. Contributed by
2785 Aurelien Jarno.
2786 * Extend RSASSA-PSS signature to allow a smaller salt size. Previously, PSS
2787 signature always used a salt with the same length as the hash, and returned
2788 an error if this was not possible. Now the salt size may be up to two bytes
Simon Butcher06d80cf2018-11-06 23:46:04 +00002789 shorter. This allows the library to support all hash and signature sizes
2790 that comply with FIPS 186-4, including SHA-512 with a 1024-bit key.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard823c9152018-07-02 12:05:49 +02002791 * Add support for 128-bit keys in CTR_DRBG. Note that using keys shorter
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +00002792 than 256 bits limits the security of generated material to 128 bits.
Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00002793
2794API Changes
2795 * Add a common error code of `MBEDTLS_ERR_PLATFORM_FEATURE_UNSUPPORTED` for
2796 a feature that is not supported by underlying alternative
Simon Butchere51d4b32018-11-09 19:57:53 +00002797 implementations implementing cryptographic primitives. This is useful for

Simon Butcher2ab14bb2018-11-09 20:09:33 +00002804 platform error.
2805 * All module specific generic hardware acceleration errors following the
Janos Follathe0e7ddf2018-09-06 10:40:04 +01002806 form MBEDTLS_ERR_XXX_HW_ACCEL_FAILED that are deprecated and are replaced
2807 by the equivalent plaform error.
2808 * Deprecate the function mbedtls_mpi_is_prime() in favor of
Ron Eldor6aa9fb42018-10-04 14:32:05 +03002809 mbedtls_mpi_is_prime_ext() which allows specifying the number of

2816 Fixes #2069.
Simon Butcher1afc7672018-09-27 11:35:19 +01002817 * Fix a bug in the update function for SSL ticket keys which previously
2818 invalidated keys of a lifetime of less than a 1s. Fixes #1968.
Hanno Beckerf24c3362018-10-17 14:53:05 +01002819 * Fix failure in hmac_drbg in the benchmark sample application, when
2820 MBEDTLS_THREADING_C is defined. Found by TrinityTonic, #1095
2821 * Fix a bug in the record decryption routine ssl_decrypt_buf()
Hanno Becker617a3212018-10-05 09:51:36 +01002822 which lead to accepting properly authenticated but improperly
2823 padded records in case of CBC ciphersuites using Encrypt-then-MAC.
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002824 * Fix memory leak and freeing without initialization in the example
2825 program programs/x509/cert_write. Fixes #1422.
Hanno Becker7e1f3be2018-10-15 13:20:28 +01002826 * Ignore IV in mbedtls_cipher_set_iv() when the cipher mode is
2827 MBEDTLS_MODE_ECB. Found by ezdevelop. Fixes #1091.
2828 * Zeroize memory used for buffering or reassembling handshake messages
2829 after use.
Hanno Beckerf143a782018-11-06 17:43:16 +00002830 * Use `mbedtls_platform_zeroize()` instead of `memset()` for zeroization
2831 of sensitive data in the example programs aescrypt2 and crypt_and_hash.
2832 * Change the default string format used for various X.509 DN attributes to
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002833 UTF8String. Previously, the use of the PrintableString format led to
2834 wildcards and non-ASCII characters being unusable in some DN attributes.

Gilles Peskine604ccc62018-07-10 15:55:52 +02002843 * Removed support for Yotta as a build tool.
2844 * Add tests for session resumption in DTLS.
2845 * Close a test gap in (D)TLS between the client side and the server side:
Simon Butcherddc9e262018-10-27 18:27:41 +01002846 test the handling of large packets and small packets on the client side
2847 in the same way as on the server side.
Simon Butcher404aa652018-10-01 14:44:22 +01002848 * Change the dtls_client and dtls_server samples to work by default over
2849 IPv6 and optionally by a build option over IPv4.
2850 * Change the use of Windows threading to use Microsoft Visual C++ runtime
Simon Butcher681edee2018-11-07 16:25:38 +00002851 calls, rather than Win32 API calls directly. This is necessary to avoid
2852 conflict with C runtime usage. Found and fixed by irwir.
2853 * Remember the string format of X.509 DN attributes when replicating
2854 X.509 DNs. Previously, DN attributes were always written in their default
2855 string format (mostly PrintableString), which could lead to CRTs being
2856 created which used PrintableStrings in the issuer field even though the
2857 signing CA used UTF8Strings in its subject field; while X.509 compliant,
2858 such CRTs were rejected in some applications, e.g. some versions of
Hanno Becker0bb204c2018-10-30 10:08:33 +00002859 Firefox, curl and GnuTLS. Reported in #1033 by Moschn. Fix contributed by

Janos Follath33329372018-09-06 10:41:33 +01002861 * Improve documentation of mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result().
2862 Fixes #517 reported by github-monoculture.
2863 * Add MBEDTLS_MPI_GEN_PRIME_FLAG_LOW_ERR flag to mbedtls_mpi_gen_prime() and
Simon Butcherc86993e2018-09-27 09:48:54 +01002864 use it to reduce error probability in RSA key generation to levels mandated

2922 * Fix a bug that caused SSL/TLS clients to incorrectly abort the handshake
2923 with TLS versions 1.1 and earlier when the server requested authentication
2924 without providing a list of CAs. This was due to an overly strict bounds
Hanno Becker44814642018-08-03 09:53:48 +01002925 check in parsing the CertificateRequest message,

2950Security
2951 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC and using SHA-384,
2952 in (D)TLS 1.0 to 1.2, that allowed an active network attacker to
2953 partially recover the plaintext of messages under some conditions by
2954 exploiting timing measurements. With DTLS, the attacker could perform
2955 this recovery by sending many messages in the same connection. With TLS
2956 or if mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only
2957 worked if the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly
2958 sent over connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM
2959 or CCM instead of CBC, using hash sizes other than SHA-384, or using
2960 Encrypt-then-Mac (RFC 7366) were not affected. The vulnerability was
2961 caused by a miscalculation (for SHA-384) in a countermeasure to the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard1cc1fb02018-06-28 12:10:27 +02002962 original Lucky 13 attack. Found by Kenny Paterson, Eyal Ronen and Adi

2964 * Fix a vulnerability in TLS ciphersuites based on CBC, in (D)TLS 1.0 to
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard830ce112018-07-11 18:27:08 +02002965 1.2, that allowed a local attacker, able to execute code on the local

2968 targeting an internal MD/SHA buffer. With TLS or if
2969 mbedtls_ssl_conf_dtls_badmac_limit() was used, the attack only worked if
2970 the same secret (for example a HTTP Cookie) has been repeatedly sent over
2971 connections manipulated by the attacker. Connections using GCM or CCM

3024 such a message was wrongly reported as an invalid record and therefore lead
3025 to the connection being terminated. Seen most often with OpenSSL using

3082API Changes
3083 * Extend the platform module with a util component that contains
3084 functionality shared by multiple Mbed TLS modules. At this stage
3085 platform_util.h (and its associated platform_util.c) only contain
3086 mbedtls_platform_zeroize(), which is a critical function from a security
3087 point of view. mbedtls_platform_zeroize() needs to be regularly tested
3088 against compilers to ensure that calls to it are not removed from the
3089 output binary as part of redundant code elimination optimizations.
Hanno Becker2bd57572018-03-28 14:52:35 +01003090 Therefore, mbedtls_platform_zeroize() is moved to the platform module to

3105 * Fix an issue in the X.509 module which could lead to a buffer overread
3106 during certificate validation. Additionally, the issue could also lead to
3107 unnecessary callback checks being made or to some validation checks to be
3108 omitted. The overread could be triggered remotely, while the other issues
3109 would require a non DER-compliant certificate to be correctly signed by a
3110 trusted CA, or a trusted CA with a non DER-compliant certificate. Found by
3111 luocm. Fixes #825.
3112 * Fix the buffer length assertion in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
3113 function which led to an arbitrary overread of the message buffer. The
3114 overreads could be caused by receiving a malformed message at the point
3115 where an optional signature algorithms list is expected when the signature
Andrzej Kurekb7a18c02018-04-25 05:25:30 -04003116 algorithms section is too short. In builds with debug output, the overread
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003117 data is output with the debug data.
3118 * Fix a client-side bug in the validation of the server's ciphersuite choice
3119 which could potentially lead to the client accepting a ciphersuite it didn't
3120 offer or a ciphersuite that cannot be used with the TLS or DTLS version
Gilles Peskine5bdb6712018-03-22 21:34:15 +01003121 chosen by the server. This could lead to corruption of internal data

3164 * Restrict usage of error code MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ to situations
3165 where data needs to be fetched from the underlying transport in order
3166 to make progress. Previously, this error code was also occasionally
Simon Butcherb03120a2018-04-30 16:40:25 +01003167 returned when unexpected messages were being discarded, ignoring that
3168 further messages could potentially already be pending to be processed
Gilles Peskinef2b76cd2018-04-19 17:41:39 +02003169 in the internal buffers; these cases led to deadlocks when event-driven
3170 I/O was used. Found and reported by Hubert Mis in #772.
3171 * Fix buffer length assertions in the ssl_parse_certificate_request()
Andrzej Kurek5462e022018-04-20 07:58:53 -04003172 function which leads to a potential one byte overread of the message

3220 * Declare functions in header files even when an alternative implementation
3221 of the corresponding module is activated by defining the corresponding
3222 MBEDTLS_XXX_ALT macro. This means that alternative implementations do
Andrzej Kurekaca09c72018-04-13 05:18:08 -04003223 not need to copy the declarations, and ensures that they will have the

Thomas Daubneyd596e992021-06-18 11:50:56 +01003229Default behavior changes
3230 * The truncated HMAC extension now conforms to RFC 6066. This means
3231 that when both sides of a TLS connection negotiate the truncated
3232 HMAC extension, Mbed TLS can now interoperate with other
3233 compliant implementations, but this breaks interoperability with
3234 prior versions of Mbed TLS. To restore the old behavior, enable
3235 the (deprecated) option MBEDTLS_SSL_TRUNCATED_HMAC_COMPAT in

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003311 * Fix a heap corruption issue in the implementation of the truncated HMAC
3312 extension. When the truncated HMAC extension is enabled and CBC is used,
3313 sending a malicious application packet could be used to selectively corrupt
3314 6 bytes on the peer's heap, which could potentially lead to crash or remote
3315 code execution. The issue could be triggered remotely from either side in
3316 both TLS and DTLS. CVE-2018-0488

3323 * Fix an unsafe bounds check in ssl_parse_client_psk_identity() when adding
3324 64 KiB to the address of the SSL buffer and causing a wrap around.
3325 * Fix a potential heap buffer overflow in mbedtls_ssl_write(). When the (by
Hanno Becker930025d2017-09-18 16:07:19 +01003326 default enabled) maximum fragment length extension is disabled in the
3327 config and the application data buffer passed to mbedtls_ssl_write
3328 is larger than the internal message buffer (16384 bytes by default), the
3329 latter overflows. The exploitability of this issue depends on whether the
3330 application layer can be forced into sending such large packets. The issue
3331 was independently reported by Tim Nordell via e-mail and by Florin Petriuc
Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003332 and sjorsdewit on GitHub. Fix proposed by Florin Petriuc in #1022.

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003384 mbedtls_rsa_import() and mbedtls_rsa_complete() are introduced for setting
Hanno Beckera47023e2017-12-22 17:08:03 +00003385 up RSA contexts from partial key material and having them completed to the

3387 contexts from keys consisting of N,D,E only, even if P,Q are needed for the
3388 purpose or CRT and/or blinding.

Simon Butcher55fc4e02018-02-05 01:09:13 +00003402 (e.g. signing with a public key).
Andres Amaya Garciaf569f702017-06-28 09:25:10 +01003403 * Direct manipulation of structure fields of RSA contexts is deprecated.
3404 Users are advised to use the extended RSA API instead.
Jaeden Amero005239e2018-01-25 14:47:39 +00003405 * Deprecate usage of message digest functions that return void
3406 (mbedtls_<MODULE>_starts, mbedtls_<MODULE>_update,
3407 mbedtls_<MODULE>_finish and mbedtls_<MODULE>_process where <MODULE> is
3408 any of MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA512) in favor of functions
3409 that can return an error code.
Hanno Becker0cd5b942017-10-13 17:17:28 +01003410 * Deprecate untrustworthy DHE parameters from RFC 5114. Superseded by
3411 parameters from RFC 3526 or the newly added parameters from RFC 7919.
3412 * Deprecate hex string DHE constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P etc.
3413 Supserseded by binary encoded constants MBEDTLS_DHM_RFC3526_MODP_2048_P_BIN

Janos Follath5a1c0e72017-06-16 09:00:07 +01003649 * Add hardware acceleration support for the Elliptic Curve Point module.
3650 This involved exposing parts of the internal interface to enable
3651 replacing the core functions and adding and alternative, module level
3652 replacement support for enabling the extension of the interface.
Janos Follath7a8a0902017-04-10 16:13:06 +01003653 * Add a new configuration option to 'mbedtls_ssl_config' to enable
3654 suppressing the CA list in Certificate Request messages. The default
3655 behaviour has not changed, namely every configured CAs name is included.
3656
Andres AGf5bf7182017-03-03 14:09:56 +00003657API Changes
3658 * The following functions in the AES module have been deprecated and replaced
3659 by the functions shown below. The new functions change the return type from
3660 void to int to allow returning error codes when using MBEDTLS_AES_ALT,
3661 MBEDTLS_AES_DECRYPT_ALT or MBEDTLS_AES_ENCRYPT_ALT.
3662 mbedtls_aes_decrypt() -> mbedtls_internal_aes_decrypt()

3669 initialising. Found by sznaider. #667 #843
3670 * Add checks in the PK module for the RSA functions on 64-bit systems.
3671 The PK and RSA modules use different types for passing hash length and
3672 without these checks the type cast could lead to data loss. Found by Guido
3673 Vranken.

Simon Butcherb65c2be2017-03-10 18:50:44 +00003678 * Add checks to prevent signature forgeries for very large messages while
3679 using RSA through the PK module in 64-bit systems. The issue was caused by
3680 some data loss when casting a size_t to an unsigned int value in the
3681 functions rsa_verify_wrap(), rsa_sign_wrap(), rsa_alt_sign_wrap() and
3682 mbedtls_pk_sign(). Found by Jean-Philippe Aumasson.

Janos Follath7dadc2f2017-01-27 16:05:20 +00003691 * Fixed a bug that caused freeing a buffer that was allocated on the stack,
3692 when verifying the validity of a key on secp224k1. This could be
3693 triggered remotely for example with a maliciously constructed certificate
Simon Butcher71e9d582017-02-28 18:47:27 +00003694 and potentially could lead to remote code execution on some platforms.

4093 You now need to link to all of them if you use TLS for example.
4094 * All public identifiers moved to the mbedtls_* or MBEDTLS_* namespace.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardd54e6172015-04-28 17:56:12 +02004095 Some names have been further changed to make them more consistent.
Antonin Décimo36e89b52019-01-23 15:24:37 +01004096 Migration helpers scripts/rename.pl and include/mbedtls/compat-1.3.h are
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardf4acfe12014-09-17 10:56:54 +02004097 provided. Full list of renamings in scripts/data_files/rename-1.3-2.0.txt
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6bdc442014-09-17 11:34:57 +02004098 * Renamings of fields inside structures, not covered by the previous list:
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02004099 mbedtls_cipher_info_t.key_length -> key_bitlen
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02004100 mbedtls_cipher_context_t.key_length -> key_bitlen

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard6963ff02015-04-28 18:02:54 +02004103 * The following _init() functions that could return errors have
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardc34e8dd2015-04-28 21:42:17 +02004104 been split into an _init() that returns void and another function that
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard2f84e972015-05-11 09:52:24 +02004105 should generally be the first function called on this context after init:
4106 mbedtls_ssl_init() -> mbedtls_ssl_setup()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard06939ce2015-05-11 11:25:46 +02004107 mbedtls_ccm_init() -> mbedtls_ccm_setkey()

Tillmann Karras588ad502015-09-25 04:27:22 +02004111 Note that for mbedtls_ssl_setup(), you need to be done setting up the
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02004112 ssl_config structure before calling it.
4113 * Most ssl_set_xxx() functions (all except ssl_set_bio(), ssl_set_hostname(),
4114 ssl_set_session() and ssl_set_client_transport_id(), plus
4115 ssl_legacy_renegotiation()) have been renamed to mbedtls_ssl_conf_xxx()

4123 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_ca_chain()
4124 mbedtls_ssl_set_hs_psk()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardcaace652015-05-11 09:57:11 +02004125 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_ca_chain() lost its last argument (peer_cn), now set
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc2b7712015-05-06 11:14:19 +01004126 using mbedtls_ssl_set_hostname().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004127 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_cache() changed prototype (only one context
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard5cb33082015-05-06 18:06:26 +01004128 pointer, parameters reordered).
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard866eb472015-05-25 19:41:37 +02004129 * On server, mbedtls_ssl_conf_session_tickets_cb() must now be used in

4132 * Debug modes were removed.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004133 * mbedtls_ssl_conf_truncated_hmac() now returns void.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarde6ef16f2015-05-11 19:54:43 +02004135 * X.509 verification flags are now an uint32_t. Affect the signature of:
4136 mbedtls_ssl_get_verify_result()
4137 mbedtls_x509_ctr_verify_info()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard96936682015-06-02 15:14:15 +01004138 mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() (flags, f_vrfy -> needs to be updated)

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnardbc6ff232015-06-02 16:33:08 +01004140 * The following functions changed prototype to avoid an in-out length
4141 parameter:
4142 mbedtls_base64_encode()
4143 mbedtls_base64_decode()
4144 mbedtls_mpi_write_string()
4145 mbedtls_dhm_calc_secret()
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard91895852015-06-30 13:34:45 +02004146 * In the NET module, all "int" and "int *" arguments for file descriptors
4147 changed type to "mbedtls_net_context *".
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0b104b02015-05-14 21:52:40 +02004148 * net_accept() gained new arguments for the size of the client_ip buffer.

4155 mbedtls_x509write_crt_set_key_usage() changed from int to unsigned.
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnarda958d692015-03-27 10:23:53 +01004156 * test_ca_list (from certs.h) is renamed to test_cas_pem and is only
4157 available if POLARSSL_PEM_PARSE_C is defined (it never worked without).
4158 * Test certificates in certs.c are no longer guaranteed to be nul-terminated
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard75f90102015-03-27 09:56:18 +01004159 strings; use the new *_len variables instead of strlen().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard43b37cb2015-05-12 11:20:10 +02004160 * Functions mbedtls_x509_xxx_parse(), mbedtls_pk_parse_key(),
4161 mbedtls_pk_parse_public_key() and mbedtls_dhm_parse_dhm() now expect the
4162 length parameter to include the terminating null byte for PEM input.

4189 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_LONGLONG was removed (now always on).
4190 * Configuration options POLARSSL_HAVE_INT8 and POLARSSL_HAVE_INT16 have
4191 been removed (compiler is required to support 32-bit operations).
4192 * Configuration option POLARSSL_HAVE_IPV6 was removed (always enabled).
4193 * Removed test program o_p_test, the script compat.sh does more.

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard348bcb32015-03-31 14:01:33 +02004219 * Support for RSA_ALT contexts in the PK layer is now optional. Since is is
4220 enabled in the default configuration, this is only noticeable if using a
4221 custom config.h

4240 new prototype, and mbedtls_ssl_set_read_timeout().
Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard01e5e8c2015-05-11 10:11:56 +02004241 * The following functions now return void:
4242 mbedtls_ssl_conf_transport()

Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard0c890352015-05-13 10:28:41 +02004245 * DTLS no longer hard-depends on TIMING_C, but uses a callback interface
4246 instead, see mbedtls_ssl_set_timer_cb(), with the Timing module providing
4247 an example implementation, see mbedtls_timing_delay_context and
4248 mbedtls_timing_set/get_delay().
