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);
- if (e)
- goto fail;
- p += l;
- len -= l;
- ret += l;
+ {
+ unsigned char *pcopy;
+ pcopy = calloc(1, len);
+ if (pcopy == 0) {
+ e = ENOMEM;
+ goto fail;
+ }
+ memcpy(pcopy, p, len);
+ e = der_replace_tag(pcopy, len, ASN1_C_UNIV, PRIM, 0);
+ if (e)
+ goto fail;
+ e = decode_StrengthOfFunction(p, len, (data)->strengthOfFunction, &l);
+ 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.
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.
Highlighs for the compiler is support for CHOICE and in general better
support for tags. This compiler support most of what is needed for
PK-INIT, LDAP, X.509, PKCS-12 and many other protocols.
