How to verify in a server that session cache resumption was used for a given connection

by eoin.mcmahon.dev＠gmail.com

I am trying to modify the dtls_server.c example to keep track of whether session caching was used for a given connection. Ideally I would have an interget value i.e `session_resumed = #1 or 0` One way I tried to do this was by reading the value of the mbedtls_ssl_context struct `ssl`: ``` /* * 5. Handshake */ do ret = mbedtls_ssl_handshake( &ssl ); while( ret == MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_READ || ret == MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_WANT_WRITE ); if( ret == MBEDTLS_ERR_SSL_HELLO_VERIFY_REQUIRED ) { printf( " hello verification requested\n" ); ret = 0; goto reset; } else if( ret != 0 ) { printf( " failed\n ! mbedtls_ssl_handshake returned -0x%x\n\n", (unsigned int) -ret ); goto reset; } printf( " session cache status: %d\n", ssl.handshake.resume ); ``` The issue with this is that the ssl struct is set to private, so the code fails to compile with the error: 'struct mbedtls_ssl_context' has no member named 'handshake' Can somebody help me with some example code that would make this possible?

Mbed TLS GitHub migration

by Dave Rodgman

Hi all, Please note that in the next couple of weeks, we will migrate Mbed TLS to a new GitHub organisation. Your existing scripts, links etc for accessing Mbed TLS on GitHub should not be affected. This will change the url from https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls to https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls . GitHub will redirect any accesses to the old URL for the foreseeable future, but we would recommend updating your links once the migration is complete. All of the Mbed TLS repositories will migrate to this new organisation, i.e.: mbedtls mbedtls-docs mbedtls-test Thanks Dave Rodgman

ECDSA Help

by Deep Patel

Hello, mbedTLS has ECDSA module that takes Signature with ASN1 encoding as input mbedtls_pk_verify() The Signature I receive is without ASN1 encoded. Trying to find an implementation within mbedTLS that can add ASN1 to signature before I feed into the verify function. Any help ?

AES Memory Leak

by Subramanian Gopi Krishnan

Hi, I have developed a program to send encrypted data continuously. The program is working fine for few hours. After 6 to 8 Hrs, I get returned MBEDTLS_ERR_CIPHER_ALLOC_FAILED -0x6180 Do I need to free the gcm context for every time I send data? What would be the root cause. #define AEAD_KEY_SIZE (32) /**< AEAD Key Size(in bytes). */ #define AEAD_IV_SIZE (12) /**< AEAD IV Size(in bytes). */ #define AEAD_AD_SIZE (16) /**< AEAD AAD Size(in bytes). */ #define AEAD_TAG_SIZE (16) /**< AEAD Tag Size(in bytes). */ #define AEAD_ID_SIZE (4) /**< AEAD Tag Size(in bytes). */ #define MAX_CIPHER_SIZE (2048)/**< AEAD Cipher/Plaintext Segent Size unoperation(in bytes). */ typedef struct { mbedtls_gcm_context CtxAead; /**< aes-gcm 3rd party library context */ uint8_t pu8Key[AEAD_KEY_SIZE]; /**< Key - Randomly Generated */ uint8_t pu8InitVector[AEAD_IV_SIZE]; /**< Randomly Generated */ uint8_t pu8AddData[AEAD_AD_SIZE]; /**< Additional Associated Data - md5sum() */ uint8_t pu8Tag[AEAD_TAG_SIZE]; /**< Hold Digest/Tag of encryped data */ uint8_t pu8Id[AEAD_ID_SIZE]; /**< KeyID is generated */ uint8_t pu8Data[MAX_CIPHER_SIZE]; /**< Buffer to hold plain-text after decipher */ uint8_t pu8Cipher[MAX_CIPHER_SIZE]; /**< Buffer to hold cipher-text after cipher */ uint16_t u16Length; /**< Current length of buffer to encrypt/decrypt */ }S_Aead; int32_t i32Aead_EncryptionCycle(S_Aead *ctx ,uint8_t *pu8AddData, uint16_t u16Length ) { int32_t i32Ret = 0; if(NULL == ctx) { return (NULL_AEAD_CTX); } /* Initilaze GCM Context **/ mbedtls_gcm_init ( &(ctx->CtxAead) ); /*SETTING ADDITIONAL DATA as MD5 of incoming data **/ if( AEAD_AD_SIZE < u16Length ) { return (ERROR_INPUT_BUFFER_TOO_LONG); } memset( ctx->pu8AddData, 0x00, AEAD_AD_SIZE ); i32Ret = mbedtls_md5_ret(pu8AddData, u16Length, ctx->pu8AddData); if (i32Ret) { return (i32Ret); } /* symetric key for testing */ memset( ctx->pu8Key, 0xAB, AEAD_KEY_SIZE ) /* Setting the key */ if( i32Ret = mbedtls_gcm_setkey ( &(ctx->CtxAead), MBEDTLS_CIPHER_ID_AES, ctx->pu8Key, AEAD_KEY_SIZE*OCTETS ) ) { return (i32Ret); } while(1) { /* OS Wait for 1000ms for data to get ready */ if( OS_WaitSingleEventTimed( TX_DATA_BUFFER_READY, WAIT_1000MS ) ) { if( ctx->u16Length == 0 ) { /* No data ready for sending (or) timed-out */; continue; } /* New Initial Vector */ if( i32Ret = i32NewRandomByte( ctx->pu8InitVector, AEAD_IV_SIZE, "AEAD_NEW_IV_GENERATION" ) ) { return(i32Ret); } ctx->u16Length = u16Length; if( i32Ret = mbedtls_gcm_crypt_and_tag( &(ctx->CtxAead), MBEDTLS_GCM_ENCRYPT, ctx->u16Length, ctx->pu8InitVector, AEAD_IV_SIZE, ctx->pu8AddData, AEAD_AD_SIZE, ctx->pu8Data, ctx->pu8Cipher, AEAD_TAG_SIZE, ctx->pu8Tag)) { return(i32Ret); } if( ctx->u16Length == send_data(ctx->pu8Cipher, ctx->u16Length) ) { /* tx success*/ memset( ctx->pu8Data, 0x00, ctx->u16Length ); memset( ctx->pu8Cipher, 0x00, ctx->u16Length ); ctx->u16Length = 0; } } } /* Free GCM Context */ mbedtls_gcm_free( &(ctx->CtxAead) ); /* Reset context memory */ memset(ctx, 0, sizeof(S_Aead)); }

signature verification of ECC type

by Sunil Jain

Hello, we are using mbedTLS version 2.16. We are facing a problem in verifying the signed message for ECDSA type of algorithms. Do you have any sample code for this as given for the RSA type algorithm in rsa_verify.c. We have derived the R and S values and their length, but we are not sure which context to use to verify the signature. Please help urgently. -- Regards, Sunil Jain

Re: How to verify in a server that session cache resumption was used for a given connection

by Eoin McMahon

Hi thanks for getting back to me, That's fine if it doesn't work in future releases, I will most likely stay on 3.0.0. Unfortunately when trying to add this line to the dtls_server example I get: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params' {aka 'struct mbedtls_ssl_handshake_params'} int resumed = ssl.MBEDTLS_PRIVATE(handshake)->resume; ^~ my use case for this is to test a client's ability to connect to the server and use session caching, I want to essentially send messages to the server from a client, and have the server send a message back either 'session cache was used' or 'session cache was not used'.
