ASN.1 allows for multi-byte tag numbers by setting the low five bits
of the first tag byte to 0x1f. No tag that we need to handle has this
format, and the existing checks for specific tag numbers will already
fail to match against such a tag (treating it as a normal single-byte
tag number).
Refuse to parse any tag with a high tag number format, to guard
against future bugs that could arise because the tag length would be
calculated incorrectly.

As detailed in commit 511dfd2 ("[crypto] Reject non-canonical ECDSA
signature data structures"), changing the representation of a valid
ECDSA signature to a different valid representation of the same
signature does not conceptually make it an invalid signature.
However, some large public test vector sets conflate the concepts of
"altered representation" and "invalid representation" in a way that
makes it difficult to determine which tests ought to pass and which
ought to fail without extensive manual analysis.
Reject any ECDSA signature object that does not have the expected
total length. The signature parsing logic already ensures that the
expected structure exists, and so the total length can be correct only
if every object used the expected DER encoding.
This length check completely subsumes the checks that were introduced
in commit 511dfd2 ("[crypto] Reject non-canonical ECDSA signature data
structures"), since there is no way to insert additional information
without also affecting the length.

We use asn1_enter_unsigned() essentially as a convenience mechanism to
skip the initial zero byte found when an encoder had to insert the
zero to prevent a logically unsigned value from being interpreted as
negative.
We currently accept malformed values where the initial byte has the
MSB set, and allow them to be interpreted as unsigned values.
Tighten up the parsing of unsigned integers so that values where the
initial byte has the MSB set will be rejected as invalid, and ensure
that the resulting cursor is minimal by skipping any number of initial
padding zero bytes (so that asn1_compare() can then be used without
the risk of false negatives).

An ECDSA signature value is a vector of two integers (r,s) modulo the
curve group order. The ECDSA algorithm itself does not define the
encoding to be used for these two integers. At least two different
standards exist for representing the vector (r,s): the ASN.1 structure
originally defined in RFC 3279 (which uses a SEQUENCE of two INTEGER
values) and the raw byte concatenation structure defined in IEEE
P1363. A valid signature vector (r,s) may be freely converted between
these two formats. Changing the format does not logically change the
validity of the signature.
Due to the mathematics underlying ECDSA, the vector (r,-s) is also
always a valid signature for the same content.
With the ASN.1 structure, there exists the possibility of adding extra
data that would currently be ignored by the parser: either objects
following the top-level SEQUENCE, or objects within the SEQUENCE
following the two INTEGER values. Adding this data does not logically
change the validity of the signature, in the same way that converting
between ASN.1 and P1363 does not logically change the validity of the
signature. However, some public test vector sets check for the
rejection of signatures containing inserted data.
Reject any ECDSA signature object that includes data following the
top-level SEQUENCE, or that includes data following the "r" and "s"
INTEGER values.

An RSA signature value (or encrypted message value) is a congruence
class modulo the field prime, and so adding a multiple of the field
prime does not logically change the validity of the signature (or the
content of the encrypted message).
However, RFC 8017 states that both the decryption primitive (section
5.1.2) and the verification primitive (section 5.2.2) should reject
non-canonical input values (i.e. any value that is not strictly less
than the field prime), and some public test vector sets check for this
rejection.
Treat any signature value or encrypted message value that is equal to
or greater than the field prime as being invalid.

RSA PKCS#1 requires a minimum of eight non-zero padding bytes for
encryption. This limit is currently enforced when encrypting but not
validated when decrypting.
The only existing code path that can currently lead to RSA decryption
is CMS decryption, which can use RSA to decrypt the cipher key. With
underlength PKCS#1 padding (and hence an overlength plaintext), the
decrypted cipher key would be rejected by the immediately following
call to cipher_setkey().
Add the missing padding length check as part of RSA decryption, and
add a test case (imported from Project Wycheproof) to ensure that this
check remains in place in future.

Some public RSA and ECDSA test vector sets provide only the private or

A zero-length IV is not permitted by the NIST GCM specification, since
it would lead to leaking the authentication key.
The only existing code path that can currently lead to the use of a
GCM cipher with a zero-length initialisation vector is CMS decryption.
Modifying a CMS encrypted message to include a zero-length IV would
leak information required to obtain the authentication key into the
transient decrypted image, but this transient image would then fail
the GCM authentication tag check and so the decrypted plaintext would
be immediately overwritten (with the re-encrypted ciphertext).
Improve robustness by rejecting a zero-length initialisation vector
for a GCM cipher, and add a test case to ensure that this rejection
remains in place in future.

We currently protect against a consumer that erroneously uses values
generated from the ephemeral master secret after closing a previously
opened channel, by deliberately replacing the ephemeral master secret
rather than zeroing it when the channel is closed.
Extend this concept to protect against a consumer that erroneously
uses the ciphers after closing a previously opened channel (or that
erroneously uses the ciphers from a channel that failed to open
successfully), by using the dead ciphers by default and by enabling
the plaintext (null) ciphers when and only when the channel has been

Certificate chains are reference-counted structures, and both the TLS
connection and the validator hold a reference to the same certificate
chain while validation is in progress. The TLS connection will not
mutate the chain during this time: if a second (illegal) Certificate
record were to arrive then it would drop its reference to the existing
chain (leaving the validator as the sole possessor) before creating a
new chain to hold the received certificates.
The validator currently holds two pointers that could be invalidated
if a future code change were to cause the chain to be externally
mutatated while validation is in progress:
- a pointer to the current certificate (for OCSP or cross-signed
downloads) that does not hold its own reference and relies upon
the chain's reference to keep the certificate pointer valid
- a pointer to the current link within the certificate chain
Guard against this class of potential future code changes by promoting
the certificate pointer to hold its own reference to the certificate
so that it is guaranteed to remain valid, deleting the stored pointer
to the current link completely, and adding a function x509_link() that
is used to locate the certificate link by traversing the chain.

The transmit and receive ciphers are now owned by the secure channel.
We assert at the point of use that the cipher algorithm used by the
secure channel matches the algorithm in the currently active cipher
specification's cipher suite, but this does not guard against future
code changes that could accidentally leave these out of sync, and
thereby end up passing an incorrectly sized context to the cipher.
Fix by treating the secure channel as having the definitive record of
the current cipher algorithm, and treating the algorithm specified in
the cipher suite as being used only as a parameter for initialising
the transmit or receive pipe via the secure channel.
This matches the way that we treat the key schedule as having the
definitive record of the current handshake digest algorithm, with the
algorithm specified in the cipher suite being used only as a parameter
for initialising the key schedule.

The DHE and ECDHE ServerKeyExchange parsers will always return the

Set the default key exchange algorithm for DHE and ECDHE to be the
null key exchange algorithm (which will always fail operations), and
also set this as the in-use key exchange algorithm when a TLS
connection is first initialised.
This creates an invariant that the TLS connection always has a valid
key exchange algorithm pointer even if that pointer does not yet
represent the algorithm being used, matching the usage pattern for the
TLS connection's cipher suite and reducing the opportunities for
potential future NULL pointer dereferences.

The TLS implementation is now just a protocol engine, and is no longer

Define an abstraction of a TLS key schedule responsible for performing

- a TLS version 1.2 key schedule using PRF based on P_Hash()
- a TLS version 1.0/1.1 key schedule using PRF based on
P_MD5()+P_SHA1()
Test cases are included for the HKDF key schedule using the example
known-working handshake traces provided in RFC 8448, and for the
earlier key schedules using manually constructed dummy minimal tests
(with non-functional handshake records) that at least guard against
future regressions.

all cryptographic calculations being delegated to the key schedule

The secure channel model is loosely constructed as a generalisation of
TLS minus the protocol specifics, and covers all the expected patterns
of operation for TLS versions 1.1 to 1.3 (including classic RSA key
transport with no forward secrecy, ephemeral key exchange via either
ClientKeyExchange and ServerKeyExchange or via key_share extensions in
ClientHello and ServerHello, and session resumption via either session
IDs, session tickets, or pre-shared keys).
