Make keyed checksums mandatory when generating and verifying checksums, with
the following exceptions:
* the checksum is being generated or verified as part of encrypting data for
a legacy (DES) encryption type
* the KRB5_CRYPTO_FLAG_ALLOW_UNKEYED_CHECKSUM flag was set on the crypto
context, used to allow unkeyed checksums in krb5 authenticators
By making unkeyed checksums opt-in, we eliminate a class of potential
vulnerabilities where callers could pass unkeyed checksums.
Any code that uses the mandatory checksum type for a given non-legacy
encryption type should not be affected by this change. It could potentially
break, say, a client trying to do FAST with DES keys but, that should not be
supported (because FAST KDCs also support AES).
Closes: #835
Add unkeyed checksum types for SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512, for future
internal use. They are assigned private (negative) checksum types and must
never appear in cleartext on the wire.
Add a encrypt_iov function pointer to all of our encryption types
which can be used to implement an iovec based encryption routine.
Modify krb5_encrypt_iov so that it calls the iovec based routine
if it is available.
So that we can eventually use iovec hashes with encrypt, as well
as sign operations, add CRYPTO_TYPE_HEADER and CRYPTO_TYPE_PADDING
to the list of iovecs which will be hashed.
Creating and destroying an EVP_CTX_MD structure with every hash
operation is very expensive. Speed things up by caching one within
the krb5_crypto structure. krb5_crypto can already only be safely
used by one thread at a time - adding a message digest context here
shouldn't introduce any further threading risks.
Users of the stashed context must be careful to ensure that they
call no other hash functions whilst they are in the middle of using
the context.
Modify the signature of the checksum operation in the
krb5_checksum_type structure so that it processes iovecs rather than
solid blocks of data.
Update all of the implementations of these functions for all of the
checksum types that we support so that they process iovecs, either
by iterating through the iovec in each function, or by calling
_krb5_evp_digest_iov or _krb5_evp_hmac_iov()
Update callers of these functions so that they turn their single blocks
of data into a single iovec of the correct type before calling checksum
This adds a new backend for libhcrypto: the OpenSSL backend.
Now libhcrypto has these backends:
- hcrypto itself (i.e., the algorithms coded in lib/hcrypto)
- Common Crypto (OS X)
- PKCS#11 (specifically for Solaris, but not Solaris-specific)
- Windows CNG (Windows)
- OpenSSL (generic)
The ./configure --with-openssl=... option no longer disables the use of
hcrypto. Instead it enables the use of OpenSSL as a (and the default)
backend in libhcrypto. The libhcrypto framework is now always used.
OpenSSL should no longer be used directly within Heimdal, except in the
OpenSSL hcrypto backend itself, and files where elliptic curve (EC)
crypto is needed.
Because libhcrypto's EC support is incomplete, we can only use OpenSSL
for EC. Currently that means separating all EC-using code so that it
does not use hcrypto, thus the libhx509/hxtool and PKINIT EC code has
been moved out of the files it used to be in.
lib/krb5/crypto.c was a large, monolithic block of code which made
it very difficult to selectively enable and disable particular
alogrithms.
Reorganise crypto.c into individual files for each encryption and
salt time, and place the structures which tie everything together
into their own file (crypto-algs.c)
Add a non-installed library (librfc3961) and test program
(test_rfc3961) which builds a minimal rfc3961 crypto library, and
checks that it is usable.
