The regular ASN.1 compiler does NOT sort SET { ... } types' members by
tag, though it should. It cannot because if a field is of an untagged
imported type, then the compiler won't know the field's tag because the
compiler does not read and parse IMPORTed modules. At least the regular
ASN.1 compiler does handle out-of-order encodings on decode.
The template ASN.1 compiler did not even support SET { ... } types at
all. With this commit the template ASN.1 compiler does, but still it
does not sort members on encode, and it does not decode out-of-
[definition-]order encodings.
A proper fix to these issues will require run-time sorting of SET
members on encode. An even better fix will require making the compiler
able to read and parse more than one module in one run, that way it can
know all the things about IMPORTed types that it currently leaves to
run-time.
Now that the ASN.1 compiler properly supports IMPLICIT tagging of named
CHOICE types (meaning: treat them as EXPLICIT tags), we can remove one
workaround for that.
The template compiler was applying IMPLICIT tags to CHOICE types. This
is very wrong, as the tag of a CHOICE's taken choice cannot be replaced
without making it impossible to figure out what the choice was. An
example of this is GeneralName's directoryName, which is an IMPLICIT-
tagged CHOICE.
Separately, the non-template compiler was requiring inlining of
IMPLICIT-tagged CHOICEs, which also happens in GeneralName's
directoryName case:
```
205 Name ::= CHOICE {
206 rdnSequence RDNSequence
207 }
...
287 GeneralName ::= CHOICE {
288 otherName [0] IMPLICIT -- OtherName --
SEQUENCE {
289 type-id OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
290 value [0] EXPLICIT heim_any
291 },
292 rfc822Name [1] IMPLICIT IA5String,
293 dNSName [2] IMPLICIT IA5String,
294 -- x400Address [3] IMPLICIT ORAddress,--
--->295 directoryName [4] IMPLICIT -- Name -- CHOICE
{
296 rdnSequence RDNSequence
297 },
298 -- ediPartyName [5] IMPLICIT EDIPartyName, --
299 uniformResourceIdentifier [6] IMPLICIT IA5String,
300 iPAddress [7] IMPLICIT OCTET STRING,
301 registeredID [8] IMPLICIT OBJECT IDENTIFIER
302 }
```
Anyways, that's fixed now, though changing that will require making
corresponding changes to `lib/hx509/`.
We're getting closer to parity between the two compilers. The template
compiler is still missing support for `SET { ... }` types. Speaking of
`SET { ... }`, the regular compiler generates code that uses `qsort()`
to sort the encoded values values of the members of such a set, but this
seems silly because the order of members is knowable at compile time, as
for DER and CER the order by the tags of the members, from lowest to
highest (see X.690, section 9.3 and X.680, section 8.6). As it happens
using `qsort()` on the encodings of the members works, but it would be
be better to sort in `lib/asn1/asn1parse.y` and then not have to bother
anywhere else. Sorting SETs at definition time will help keep the
tamplate compiler simple. Not that we _need_ `SET { ... }` for anything
in-tree other than the X.690 sample...
While we're at it, let's note that the core of PKIX from the RFC
2459/3280/5280/5912 consists of *two* ASN.1 modules, one with
default-EXPLICIT tags, and one with default-IMPLICIT tags, and
Heimdal has these merged as a default-EXPLICIT tags module in
`lib/asn1/rfc2459.asn1`, with `IMPLICIT` added in by hand in all the
tags in the default-IMPLICIT tagged module. This fixes one recently
added type from PKIX that didn't have `IMPLICIT` added in manually!
Finally. We're almost at parity for the template compiler.
Now we have a build option to use templating:
`./configure --enable-asn1-templating`
Tests fail if you build `rfc2459.asn1` with `--template`.
TBD: Figure out what differences remain between the two compilers, and
fix the templating compiler accordingly, adding tests along the
way.
Making IMPLICIT tags work in the templating compiler turned out to be a
simple fix: don't attempt to do anything clever about IMPLICIT tags in
the template generator in the compiler other than denoting them --
instead leave all the smarts about IMPLICIT tags to the interpreter.
This might be a very slight pessimization, but also a great
simplification.
The result is very elegant: when the interpreter finds an IMPLICIT
tag it then recurses to find the template for the body of the type
so-tagged, and evaluates that. Much more elegant than the code
generated by the non-template compiler, not least for not needing
any additional temporary memory allocation.
With this we finally have parity in basic testing of the template
compiler. Indeed, for IMPLICIT tags the template compiler and
interpreter might even be better because they support IMPLICIT tags
with BER lengths, whereas the non-template compiler doesn't (mostly
because `der_replace_tag()` needs to be changed to support it.
And, of course, the template compiler is simply superior in that it
produces smaller code and is *much* easier to work with because the
functions to interpret templates are small and simple. Which means we
can add more functions to deal with other encoding rules fairly
trivially. It should be possible to add all of these with very little
work, almost all of it localized to `lib/asn1/template.c`:
- PER Packed Encoding Rules [X.691]
- XER XML Encoding Rules [X.693]
- OER Octet Encoding Rules [X.696] (intended to replace PER)
- JER JSON Encoding Rules [X.697] (doubles as visual representation)
- GSER Generic String E.R.s [RFC3641] (a visual representation)
- XDR External Data Repr. [STD67][RFC4506]
(XDR is *not* an ASN.1 encoding rules specification, but it's a
*lot* like PER/OER but with 4-octet alignment, and is specified
for the syntax equivalent (XDR) of only a subset of ASN.1 syntax
and semantics.)
All we'd have to do is add variants of `_asn1_{length,encode,decode}()`
for each set of rules, then generate per-type stub functions that call
them (as we already do for DER).
We could then have an encoding rule transliteration program that takes a
`TypeName` and some representation of a value encoded by some encoding
rules, and outputs the same thing encoded by a different set of rules.
This would double as a pretty-printer and parser if we do add support
for JER and/or GSER. It would find the template for the given type
using `dlsym()` against some shared object (possibly `libasn1` itself).
Whereas generating source code for C (or whatever language) for
additional ERs requires much more work. Plus, templates are much
smaller, and the interpreter is tiny, which yields much smaller text and
much smaller CPU icache/dcache footprint, which yields better
performance in many cases.
As well, the template system should be much easier to port to other
languages. Though in the cases of, e.g., Rust, it would require use of
`unsafe` in the interpreter, so in fact the inverse might be true: that
it's easier to generate safe Rust code than to implement a template
interpreter in Rust. Similarly for Haskell, OCAML, etc. But wherever
the template interpreter is easy to implement, it's a huge win.
Note that implementing OER and PER using the templates as they are
currently would be a bit of a challenge, as the interpreter would have
to first do a pass of each SEQUENCE/SET to determine the size and
layout of the OER/PER sequence/set preamble by counting the number of
OPTIONAL/DEFAULT members, BOOLEAN members, and extensibility markers
with extensions present. We could always generate more entries to
encode precomputed preamble metadata. We would also need to add a
template entry type for extensibility markers, which currently we do
not.
The earlier fixes to the ASN.1 compiler for IMPLICIT tags did not
include the template interpreter.
TBD:
- TESTImplicit encoding/decoding still fails due to a bug in the
template generator.
- There are missing cases in the template interpreter. See XXX
comments.
`lib/asn1/check-gen.c` almost works with templates, and is a pretty
extensive test. The only thing that fails is everything to do with
IMPLICIT tags (so, `test_implicit()`).
So now we compile `lib/asn1/test.asn1` both, w/ and w/o templating, and
we build two programs from `lib/asn1/check-gen.c`: `check-gen` and
`check-gen-template`, respectively linking with the non-templated and
the templated compilation of `lib/asn1/test.asn1`.
Because the template compiler still doesn't support IMPLICIT tagging
well, we disable testing of IMPLICIT tags in `check-gen-template`.
This will make it much harder to break the template compiler in the
future.
Commit 89389bc7a (asn1: Fix long-standing IMPLICIT tagging brokenness)
was incomplete. Removing the hacks in lib/asn1/cms.asn1 revealed this.
Now the ASN.1 compiler generates enums to indicate what is the class and
tag of each type. This is needed so the decoder functions generated by
the compiler can know what tag to restore.
Now, too, the compiler does handle IMPLICIT tags whose encoded length is
different from that of the underlying type.
However, we now don't handle indefinite BER and non-DER definite lengths
(DCE) following IMPLICIT tags. This would affect only CMS in-tree.
This helped find a bug fixed in the preceding commit.
This also depends on the earlier fixes to IMPLICT tagging support, thus
implementing a test of that using a test vector from a standard.
This commit _mostly_ fixes the Heimdal ASN.1 compiler to properly
support IMPLICIT tagging in most if not all the many cases where it
didn't already, as you could see in lib/asn1/canthandle.asn1 prior to
this commit.
This fix is a bit of a hack in that a proper fix would change the
function prototypes of the encode/decode/length functions generated by
the compiler to take an optional IMPLICIT tag to tag with instead of the
type they code. That fix would not be localized to lib/asn1/ however,
and would change the API and ABI of generated code (which is mostly not
an ABI for Heimdal, but still, some external projects would have to make
changes).
Instead, for IMPLICIT tags we currently depend on the IMPLICIT tag and
the sub-type's tag having the same size -- this can be fixed with extra
allocation on the encoder side as we do on the decoder side, but we
might leave it for later.
The issue we're fixing manifested as:
-- The [CONTEXT 0] tag in Bar below was turned into an EXPLICIT tag
-- instead of an IMPLICIT one, netting the DER encoding for the `foo`
-- member as:
-- [CONTEXT 0] [UNIVERSAL Seq] [UNIVERSAL Int] <encoding of i>
-- instead of the correct:
-- [CONTEXT 0] [UNIVERSAL Int] <encoding of i>
Foo ::= SEQUENCE { i INTEGER }
Bar ::= SEQUENCE { foo [0] IMPLICIT Foo }
or
Foo ::= INTEGER
Bar ::= SEQUENCE { foo [0] IMPLICIT Foo } -- tag context 0 marked
-- constructed!
I've reviewed this in part by reviewing the output of the compiler
before and after this change using this procedure:
- Run an earlier version of the ASN.1 compiler output for all
modules in lib/asn1/. Save these in a different location.
- Run this (or later) version of the ASN.1 compiler output for
the same modules, adding --original-order for modules that
have been manually sorted already (e.g., rfc2459.asn1).
- Run clang-format on the saved and newest generated C source
and header files.
- Diff the generated output. Substantial differences will
relate to handling of IMPLICIT tagging. These are
particularly evident in the tcg.asn1 module, which uses a lot
of those.
Later commits add test data (certificates with extensions that use
IMPLICIT tagging) taken from external specifications as well, which
exercise this fix.
Non-urgent brokenness yet to be fixed:
- When the IMPLICIT tag and the tag of the underlying type require
differing numbers of bytes to encode, the encoding and decoding will
fail. The prototypes of generated length_*() functions make it
impossible to do much better.
- SET OF <primitive> still crashes the compiler (not a new bug).
Futures:
- Unwind hackery in cms.asn1 that worked around our lack of proper
IMPLICIT tagging support.

and one should see deltas such as the following:
- a small enhancement to handling of OPTIONAL members:
(data)->macData = calloc(1, sizeof(*(data)->macData));
if ((data)->macData == NULL)
goto fail;
e = decode_PKCS12_MacData(p, len, (data)->macData, &l);
- if (e) {
+ if (e == ASN1_MISSING_FIELD) {
free((data)->macData);
(data)->macData = NULL;
+ } else if (e) {
+ goto fail;
} else {
p += l;
len -= l;
ret += l;
- more complete handling of DEFAULTed members:
e = decode_FWReceiptVersion(p, len, &(data)->version, &l);
- if (e)
+ if (e == ASN1_MISSING_FIELD) {
+ (data)->version = 1;
+ } else if (e) {
goto fail;
- p += l;
- len -= l;
- ret += l;
+ } else {
+ p += l;
+ len -= l;
+ ret += l;
+ }
{
- replacement of tags with implicit tags (encode side):
/* targetUri */
if ((data)->targetUri) {
size_t Top_tag_oldret HEIMDAL_UNUSED_ATTRIBUTE = ret;
ret = 0;
e = encode_URIReference(p, len, (data)->targetUri, &l);
if (e)
return e;
p -= l;
len -= l;
ret += l;
- e = der_put_length_and_tag(p, len, ret, ASN1_C_CONTEXT, PRIM, 4, &l);
+ e = der_replace_tag(p, len, ASN1_C_CONTEXT, CONS, 4);
if (e)
return e;
p -= l;
len -= l;
ret += l;
ret += Top_tag_oldret;
}
- replacement of tags with implicit tags (decode side):
strengthOfFunction_oldlen = len;
if (strengthOfFunction_datalen > len) {
e = ASN1_OVERRUN;
goto fail;
}
len = strengthOfFunction_datalen;
- e = decode_StrengthOfFunction(p, len, (data)->strengthOfFunction, &l);

- goto fail;
- p += l;

+ e = ENOMEM;

+ }
+ memcpy(pcopy, p, len);

+ if (e)
+ goto fail;
+ p += l;
+ len -= l;
+ ret += l;
+ free(pcopy);
+ }
len = strengthOfFunction_oldlen - strengthOfFunction_datalen;
}
}
{
size_t profileOid_datalen, profileOid_oldlen;
- correct determination of implicit tag constructed vs no for IMPLICT-
tagged named primitive types:
{
size_t profileUri_datalen, profileUri_oldlen;
Der_type profileUri_type;
e = der_match_tag_and_length(p, len, ASN1_C_CONTEXT, &profileUri_type, 2,
&profileUri_datalen, &l);
- if (e == 0 && profileUri_type != PRIM) {
+ if (e == 0 && profileUri_type != CONS) {
e = ASN1_BAD_ID;
}
if (e) {
(data)->profileUri = NULL;
} else {
(data)->profileUri = calloc(1, sizeof(*(data)->profileUri));
if ((data)->profileUri == NULL) {
e = ENOMEM;
goto fail;
}
- correct determination of length of IMPLICT-tagged OIDs:
if ((data)->profileOid) {
size_t Top_tag_oldret = ret;
ret = 0;
ret += der_length_oid((data)->profileOid);
+ ret += 1 + der_length_len(ret);
ret += Top_tag_oldret;
}
These deltas should be examined with the corresponding ASN.1 module at
hand, cross-referencing the source code to the ASN.1 type definitions
and manually applying X.690 rules to double-check the choices of
primitive vs. constructed tag, and the choices of when to replace tags
and when not.
- Giving asn1_compile the name of an ASN.1 module w/o the ".asn1" stem
will cause the compiler to add the ".asn1" stem, and it will cause
the compiler to look for a ".opt" file as well.
- The default C module name substring derivation from the .asn1 file
name is improved.
- There is now a --gen-name=NAME option for specifying the C module
name substring. This is useful for specifying that in a .opt file.
- More options now have helpful usage messages.
This will allow simplification of lib/asn1/Makefile.am's invocations of
asn1_compile.
We may well end up requiring the automatic .opt file finding feature
when we eventualy add support for parsing multiple modules in a single
invocation for better support of IMPORTs.
Many external ASN.1 modules that we have imported over time define types
like this:
Foo ::= SEQUENCE { bar Bar }
Bar ::= SEQUENCE { aMember INTEGER }
and before this change one had to re-order the definitions so that the
one for `Bar` came first. No more.
We can now have out of order definitions in ASN.1 modules and the
compiler will topologically sort output C type declarations so that one
no longer has to manually sort types in ASN.1 modules when importing
them.
Besides that, it is now possible to create circular data types using
OPTIONAL since we generate such fields as pointers (which can then be
pointers to incomplete struct declarations):
Circular ::= SEQUENCE {
name UTF8String,
next Circular OPTIONAL
}
Circular types aren't necessarily useful, but they have been used in the
past. E.g., the rpc.mountd protocol uses a circular type as a linked
list -- it should just have used an array, of course, as that's
semantically equivalent but more space efficient in its encoding, but
the point is that such types exist out there.
C enum labels have to be globally unique. ASN.1 module ENUMERATED and
INTEGER types with named values are not globally unique. This means
that ASN.1 integer type value names and enumerations can cause conflicts
when compiled to C.
This new option allows the user to specify a prefix to apply to such
names. Then this:
Foo ::= ENUMERATED { v1 (0) }
can generate:
typedef enum Foo {
prefix_v1 = 0,
} Foo;
instead of
typedef enum Foo {
v1 = 0,
} Foo;
which is very likely to conflict.
TBD: Add option to use the type name as the prefix?
TRUE/FALSE may not be defined, so emitting those symbols when generating
code for `... BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE -- or FALSE` causes the generated
code to fail to compile. We could move the definitions of TRUE/FALSE to
krb5-types.h, or maybe we could have an asn1_compile option to force
inclusion of more than one header file so we can have headers defining
such constants. But the simplest fix is to just emit 1/0 instead of
TRUE/FALSE.
This explains why some BOOLEAN DEFAULT usages in PKIX are made OPTIONAL
in Heimdal.
In preparation for adding support for TPM attestations as an authentication
method in bx509d for a host trust bootstrap mechanism based on TPMs and their
endorsement keys and endorsement key certificates.
The plan is to add support to libhx509 and hxtool for PermanentIdentifier
(RFC4043) and HardwareModuleName (RFC4108) SANs, and then to add a query
parameter to bx509d for passing an attestation and a proof-of-possession
(either CMS or CSR), and add an authorizer plugin call for authorizing a device
manufacturer and serial number to hostname. Support for TPMs w/o endorsement
key certificates should also be possible based on a digest of the endorsement
key as the "serial number".
On Windows i386 the asn1 tests would crash due to stack corruption
as a result of functions being executed with the wrong calling
conventions.
Change-Id: Ic4f8b3a05dad36e3db6397fbd9270b98f0a5dfc5
The code generators were shifting "1LU" by (<< 32) and (<< 63) which
are undefined operations for a 32-bit integer. To ensure the integer
is 64-bit use "1ULL".
Change-Id: I062cae5638139a9fe51563f64b1964f87e2f49e3
In 0cc708ba36, we removed the definition of id-ms-client-authentication
without a corresponding removal from lib/asn1/libasn1-exports.def.
Maybe we should generate lib*-exports.def?
This commit adds support for proof of posession to the kx509 protocol by
using PKCS#10 CSRs.
This allows conveyance of extReq CSR attributes requesting desired
Certificate Extensions.
This is necessary in order to add proper support for CSRs in kx509,
where the KDC can examine all requested KUs/EKUs/SANs, check
authorization, and issue a certificate with all those extensions if
authorized.
This is the convention used by OpenSSL, of encoding all the KU, EKUs,
and SANs being requested as Extensions as they would appear in the
TBSCertificate, then putting those in as a single Attribute in the CSR's
Attributes list with attribute OID {id-pkcs-9, 14}.
- expose all hx509_request_*() functions
- finish support in hx509_request_parse*() for KU, EKU, and SAN CSR
attributes
- finish support in hx509_request_to_pkcs10() for encoding all
requested KU, EKU, and SAN extensions as a CSR extReq (extension request)
- add hx509_request_add_*() support for:
- id-pkinit-san and ms-upn-pkinit-san
- XMPP (Jabber) SAN
- registeredID (useless but trivial)
- add hxtool request-create options for all supported SANs
- add hxtool request-create options for KeyUsage
- add hxtool request-create options for ExtKeyUsage
- add hxtool request-print support for all these things
- fix bugs in existing id-pkinit-san handling
Possible future improvements
- add HX509_TRACE env var and support (it would be nice to be able to
observe why some certificate is rejected, or not matched in a query)
- add testing that CSR creating and printing round-trip for all KUs,
EKUs, and SANs
(probably in tests/kdc/check-pkinit.in)
- add testing that OpenSSL can print a CSR made by hxtool and
vice-versa
- hxtool ca: add KU sanity checking (via hx509_ca_sign() and/or friends)
(don't allow encrypt for signing-only algs)
(don't allow encrypt for RSA at all, or for RSA with small e exponents)
- hxtool request-print: warn about all unknown attributes and
extensions
- hxtool ca: MAYBE add support for adding requested extensions from the
--req=CSR
("Maybe" because CA operators should really verify and authorize all
requested attributes, and should acknowledge that they have, and the
simplest way to do this is to make them add all the corresponding
CLI arguments to the hxtool ca command, but too, that is
error-prone, thus it's not clear yet which approach is best.
Perhaps interactively prompt for yes/no for each attribute.)
- add additional SAN types:
- iPAddress (useless?)
- dNSSrv (useful!)
- directoryName (useless, but trivial)
- uniformResourceIdentifier (useful)
- it would be nice if the ASN.1 compiler could generate print
functions..., and/or even better, to-JSON functions
- it would be nice if we had a known-OID db, including the names of the
types they refer to in certificate extensions, otherName SANs and CSR
attributes, then we could generate a CSR and certificate printer for
all known options even when they are not supported by the rest of
Heimdal
- and we could also get friendly names for OIDs, and we could
resolve their arc names
- longer term, we could also stand to add some ASN.1 information
object system functionality, just enough to make
lib/hx509/asn1_print awesome by being able to automatically decode
all heim_any and OCTET STRING content (better than its current
--inner option)
This commit adds support for kx509 in libkrb5, and revamps the KDC's
kx509 service (fixing bugs, adding features).
Of note is that kx509 is attempted optimistically by the client, with
the certificate and private key stored in the ccache, and optionally in
an external PEM or DER file.
NOTE: We do not optimistically use kx509 in krb5_cc_store_cred() if the
ccache is a MEMORY ccache so we don't generate a key when
accepting a GSS context with a delegated credential.
kx509 protocol issues to be fixed in an upcoming commit:
- no proof of possession (this is mostly not too bad, but we'll want to
fix it by using CSRs)
- no algorithm agility (only plain RSA is supported)
- very limited (no way to request any options in regards to the
requested cert)
- error codes are not very useful
Things we're adding in this commit:
- libkrb5 kx509 client
- automatic kx509 usage hooked in via krb5_cc_store_cred() of start TGT
- per-realm templates on the KDC side
- per-realm issuer certificates
- send error messages on the KDC side
(this is essential to avoid client-side timeouts on error)
- authenticate as many error messages
- add a protocol probe feature so we can avoid generating a
keypair if the service is not enabled
(once we add support for ECC algorithms we won't need this
anymore; the issue is that RSA keygen is slow)
- support for different types of client principals, not just username:
- host-based service and domain-based service, each with its own
template set per-{realm, service} or per-service
(the idea is to support issuance of server certificates too, not
just client/user certs)
- more complete support for SAN types
- tests (including that PKINIT->kx509->PKINIT works, which makes it
possible to have "delegation" of PKIX credentials by just delegating
Kerberos credentials)
- document the protocol in lib/krb5/kx509.c
Future work:
- add option for longer-ticket-lifetime service certs
- add support for ECDSA, and some day for ed25519 and ed448
- reuse private key when running kinit
(this will require rethinking how we trigger optimistic kx509
usage)
- HDB lookup for:
- optional revocation check (not strictly necessary)
- adding to certificates those SANs listed in HDB
- hostname aliases (dNSName SANs)

i.e., if a host/f.q.d.n principal asks for a certificate for
some service at some-label.f.q.d.n, then issue it
(this is not needed at OSKT sites because OSKT already
supports keying such service principals, which means kx509
will issue certificates for them, however, it would be nice
to be able to have this independent of OSKT)
(a better way to do this would be to integrate more of OSKT
into Heimdal proper)
- a kx509 command, or heimtools kx509 subcommand for explicitly
attempting use of the kx509 protocol (as opposed to implicit, as is
done in kinit via krb5_cc_store_cred() magic right now)
Issues:
- optimistically trying kx509 on start realm TGT store -> timeout issues!
- newer KDCs will return errors because of this commit; older ones
will not, which causes timouts
- need a separate timeout setting for kx509 for optimistic case
- need a [realm] config item and DNS SRV RR lookup for whether a
realm is expected to support kx509 service
Prior to this commit the Heimdal ASN.1 compiler supported DEFAULTing
SEQUENCE fields on the encoder side, but not the decoder side, where
ASN1_MISSING_FIELD would inevitably result when fields were defaulted.
This patch adds the missing decode-side support for DEFAULT.
