Modernizing a ecdh exchange

by Dirk-Willem van Gulik

I am currently doing an ECDH exchange over MQTT (i.e. at the message layer; MQTT is fundamentally `untrusted') - with a bit of out of band work to confirm end to end integrity. That worked nicely (and interoperable with java-bouncy-castle and openssl, etc with: mbedtls_ecp_group_load( &ctx_cli.grp, MBEDTLS_ECP_DP_CURVE25519 ) mbedtls_ecdh_gen_public( &ctx_cli.grp, &ctx_cli.d, &ctx_cli.Q, mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random, &ctr_drbg) mbedtls_mpi_write_binary( &ctx_cli.Q.X, node_publicsession, 32 ) to create the keys and with mbedtls_mpi_lset( &ctx_cli.private_Qp.Z, 1 )) mbedtls_mpi_read_binary( &ctx_cli.private_Qp.X, pubencr_tmp, CURVE259919_KEYLEN)) mbedtls_ecdh_compute_shared( &ctx_cli.grp, &ctx_cli.private_z, &ctx_cli.private_Qp, &ctx_cli.private_d, mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random, &ctr_drbg ) mbedtls_mpi_write_binary( &ctx_cli.private_z, sessionkey, CURVE259919_KEYLEN) to calculate the emphemeral session key. With the mbedtls_ecdh_context going increasingly private; I assume I can change the latter with: mbedtls_ecdh_calc_secret(&ctx_cli, &len_sessionkey, sessionkey, sizeof(sessionkey), mbedtls_ctr_drbg_random, &ctr_drbg) but am struggling to see how I an replace the key generation itself. Is there a similar option that does not look `into' ctx_cli ?? With kind regards, Dw. PS: actual code at https://github.com/MakerSpaceLeiden/AccesSystem/blob/master/lib-arduino/ACN…

DTLS handshake with and without hello verify request

by Ankita Hatmode

Hi Team, I am working on exploring DTLS handshake using the mbedtls-3.6.4 version on our embedded platform. I enabled the hello verify request feature and got stuck at hello verify request state on server side if I don't reset the ssl context and don't set the client transport ID. I want to know if there is any way to complete a handshake by bypassing the reset of ssl context and setting the client transport ID. Also, our environment only supports C89 constructs. I could not see inttypes.h in the mbedtls-3.6.4, is there any specific reason to remove this file? I am getting compilation errors without inttypes.h and stdint.h. Is there any macro to be enabled to support the c89 compilation in mbedtls stack? Looking forward to your response.

TLS 1.3 and brainpool curves

by Maren Konrad

Dear MbedTLS maintainers, we are already using MBedTLS, however, we recently enabled TLS 1.3 and found that our certificates doesn't work anymore, because they are brainpoolP256r1 (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8734). So the question would be, if I missed any configuration to enable the usage of brainpool curves (which are working for TLS 1.2) or if there are any plans, that these are getting supported by MBedTLS 3.6.x? Best regards, Maren Konrad

TLS handshake error : unexpected eof

by kavitha bk

Hi We migrated from mbedtls 2.28 to mbedtls 3.6.2 https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/tree/107ea89daaefb9867ea9121002fbbdf926… and we see TLS handshake fails when we use TLS 1.2 in mbedtls 3.6.2 instead of 1.3. We get below error 20E094B0FFFF0000:error:0A000126:SSL routines:ssl3_read_n:unexpected eof while reading:/usr/src/debug/openssl/3.1.0-r0/ssl/record/rec_layer_s3.c:303: # openssl s_client -connect 192.168.142.1:7001 -no_tls1_3 fails After seeing the trace we have enabled ciphers but still we see the issue. please advise, thanks. Thanks Kavitha

psa crypto driver for imx-smw

by kavitha bk

Hi all, We are trying to write a psa crypto driver for imx-smw . They have exposed psa certified public apis https://github.com/nxp-imx/imx-smw/tree/release/version_4.x/public/psa Is there any documentation to replace existing psa implementation to custom psa crypto implementation in mbedtls..Please advise on the approach to follow to call the custom apis to implement based on https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blob/mbedtls-3.6/docs/psa-driver-exampl… Thanks Kavitha

Credential validation BEFORE first TLS handshake: the present and future of mbedtls_pk_sign/verify()

by Almut Herzog

Hi, Prior to the first TLS handshake our application is required to perform input validation of the provided credentials (from file or smart card) for this peer. One of those checks is to verify that private and public key match. We used to use mbedtls_pk_sign() with a custom mbedtls_pk_context for that. But in version 3.X mbedtls_pk_info_t was made private so mbedtls_pk_setup() with a custom mbedtls_pk_info_t whose sign_func would call into our smart card wrapper is no longer possible. Is there still a way to provide custom callback functions for signing in 3.6.4 somehow? Or any other workaround for early check of a key pair? Looking at 4.0.0-beta, also pk.h is no longer public. Will it still be possible to perform early validation of this peer's credentials prior to a first TLS handshake? How? While I am at it, it would be good to implement something that is future-proof. What else I have looked at: * mbedtls_pk_setup_opaque() might be the way to go but I do not find an example of how to link a key id to a custom signature function. * mbedtls_pk_setup_rsa_alt() would be useful if our application was always using RSA. * Both functions are no longer public in 4.0 Related: Early validation of a CRL (whether it was signed by the expected CA) used to be possible with mbedtls_pk_verify_ext(). But to properly set the input parameters requires access to private members of mbedtls_x509_crl in 3.6.4 (maybe an acceptable move?) but in 4.0.0 mbedtls_pk_verify_ext() is no longer public. How perform explicit/"manual" CRL validation especially given the possibly skipped CRL validation in mbedtls_x509_crt_verify() as per the comment below? "It is your responsibility to provide up-to-date CRLs for all trusted CAs. If no CRL is provided for the CA that was used t sign the certificate, CRL verification is skipped silently..." Any future-proof ideas for this? Best regards, /Almut
