LibreSSL 3.3.2 Released
18 April, 2021 by busterb@gmail.com | openbsd
We have released LibreSSL 3.3.2, which will be arriving in the
LibreSSL directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon. This is the last
development release for the 3.3.x branch before it is declared stable, and we
appreciate additional testing and feedback.
It includes the following changes:
* This release adds support for DTLSv1.2 and continues the rewrite
of the record layer for the legacy stack. Numerous bugs and
interoperability issues were fixed in the new verifier. A few bugs
and incompatibilities remain, so this release uses the old verifier
by default. The OpenSSL 1.1 TLSv1.3 API is not yet available.
* Switch finish{,_peer}_md_len from an int to a size_t.
* Make SSL_get{,_peer}_finished() work when used with TLSv1.3.
* Use EVP_MD_MAX_MD_SIZE instead of 2 * EVP_MD_MAX_MD_SIZE as size
for cert_verify_md[], finish_md[] and peer_finish_md[]. The factor 2
was a historical artefact.
* Correct the return value type from ERR_peek_error() to a long.
* Avoid use of uninitialized in ASN1_time_parse() which could happen
on parsing UTCTime if the caller did not initialise the passed
struct tm.
* Destroy the mutex in a tls_config object on tls_config_free().
* Free alert_data and phh_data in tls13_record_layer_free()
these could leak if SSL_shutdown() or tls_close() were called
after closing the underlying socket().
* Free struct members in tls13_record_layer_free() in their natural
order for reviewability.
* Gracefully handle root certificates being both trusted and
untrusted.
* Handle X509_V_ERR_UNABLE_TO_VERIFY_LEAF_SIGNATURE in the new
verifier.
* Use the legacy verifier when building auto chains for TLS.
* Use consistent names in tls13_{client,server}_finished_{recv,send}().
* Add tls13_secret_{init,cleanup}() and use them throughout the
TLSv1.3 code base.
* Move the read MAC key into the TLSv1.2 record layer.
* Make tls12_record_layer_free() NULL safe.
* Search the intermediates only after searching the root certs in the
new verifier to avoid problems with the legacy callback.
* Bail out early after finding a single chain in the new verifier, if
we have been called via the legacy verifier API.
* Set (invalid and likely incomplete) chain on the xsc on chain build
failure prior to calling the callback. This is required by various
callers, including auto chain.
* Align SSL_get_shared_ciphers() with OpenSSL. This takes into account
that it never returned server ciphers, so now it will fail when
called from the client side.
* Add support for SSL_get_shared_ciphers() with TLSv1.3.
* Split the record protection from the TLSv1.2 record layer.
* Clean up sequence number handling in the new TLSv1.2 record layer.
* Clean up sequence number handling in DTLS.
* Clean up dtls1_reset_seq_numbers().
* Factor out code for explicit IV length, block size and MAC length
from tls12_record_layer_open_record_protected_cipher().
* Provide record layer overhead for DTLS.
* Provide functions to determine if TLSv1.2 record protection is
engaged.
* Add code to handle change of cipher state in the new TLSv1.2 record
layer.
* Mop up now unused dtls1_build_sequence_numbers() function.
* Allow setting a keypair on a tls context without specifying the
private key, and fake it internally in libtls. This removes the
need for privsep engines like relayd to use bogus keys.
* Skip the private key check for fake private keys.
* Move the private key setup from tls_configure_ssl_keypair() to a
helper function with proper error checking.
* Change the internal tls_configure_ssl_keypair() function to
return -1 instead of 1 on failure.
* Move sequence numbers into the new TLSv1.2 record layer.
* Move AEAD handling into the new TLSv1.2 record layer.
* Remove direct assignment of aead_ctx to avoid a leak.
* Add a number of RPKI OIDs from RFC 6482, 6484, 6493, 8182, 8360,
draft-ietf-sidrops-rpki-rta, and draft-ietf-opsawg-finding-geofeeds.
* Fail early in legacy exporter if the master secret is not available
to avoid a segfault if it is called when the handshake is not
completed.
* Factor out legacy stack version checks.
* Correct handshake MAC/PRF for various TLSv1.2 cipher suites which
were originally added with the default handshake MAC and PRF rather
than the SHA256 handshake MAC and PRF.
* Absorb ssl3_get_algorithm2() into ssl_get_handshake_evp_md().
* Use dtls1_record_retrieve_buffered_record() to load buffered
application data.
* Enforce read ahead with DTLS.
* Remove bogus DTLS checks that disabled ECC and OCSP.
* Sync cert.pem with Mozilla NSS root CAs except "GeoTrust Global CA".
* Only print the certificate file once on verification failure.
* Pull in fix for EVP_CipherUpdate() overflow from OpenSSL.
* Clean up and simplify dtls1_get_cipher().
* Group HelloVerifyRequest decoding and add missing check for trailing
data.
* Revise HelloVerifyRequest handling for DTLSv1.2.
* Handle DTLS1_2_VERSION in various places.
* Add DTLSv1.2 methods.
* Make SSL{_CTX,}_get_{min,max}_proto_version() return a version of
zero if the minimum or maximum has been set to zero to match
OpenSSL's behavior.
* Rename the "truncated" label into "decode_err" and the "f_err"
label into "fatal_err".
* Factor out and change some of the legacy client version code.
* Simplify version checks in the TLSv1.3 client. Ensure that the
server announced TLSv1.3 and nothing higher and check that the
legacy_version is set to TLSv1.2 as required by RFC 8446.
* Fix an off-by-one in x509_verify_set_xsc_chain() to make sure that
the new validator checks for EXFLAG_CRITICAL in
x509_vfy_check_chain_extension() for all untrusted certs in the
chain. Take into account that the root is not necessarily trusted.
* Avoid passing last and depth to x509_verify_cert_error() on ENOMEM.
* Rename depth to num_untrusted.
* Only use TLS versions internally rather than both TLS and DTLS
versions since the latter are the one's complement of the human
readable version numbers, which means that newer versions decrease
in value.
* Fix two bugs in the legacy verifier that resulted from refactoring
of X509_verify_cert() for the new verifier: a return value was
incorrectly treated as boolean, making it insufficient to decide
whether validation should carry on or not.
* Identify DTLS based on the version major value.
* Move handling of cipher/hash based cipher suites into the new record
layer.
* Add tls12_record_protection_unused() and call it from CCS functions.
* Move key/IV length checks closer to usage sites. Also add explicit
checks against EVP_CIPHER_{iv,key}_length().
* Replace two handrolled tls12_record_protection_engaged().
* Improve internal version handling: add handshake fields for our
minimum version, our maximum version and the TLS version negotiated
during the handshake. Convert most of the internal code to use these
version fields.
* Guard against future internal use of TLS1_get_{client,}_version()
macros.
* Remove the internal ssl_downgrade_max_version() function which is no
longer needed.
* Fix checks for memory caps of constraints names. There are internal
caps on the number of name constraints and other names, that the new
name constraints code allocates per cert chain. These limits were
checked too late, making them only partially effective.
* Use EXFLAG_INVALID to handle out of memory and parse errors in
x509v3_cache_extensions().
* Add support for DTLSv1.2 version handling.
* Enable DTLSv1.2 support.
* Add DTLSv1.2 support to openssl s_client/s_server.
* Remove no longer needed read ahead workarounds in the s_client and
s_server.
* Fix a copy-paste error - skid was confused with an akid when
checking for EXFLAG_INVALID. This broke OCSP validation with
certain mirrors.
* Make supported protocols and options for DHE params more prominent
in tls_config_set_protocols.3.
* Avoid a use-after-scope in tls13_cert_add().
* Split TLSv1.3 record protection from record layer.
* Move the TLSv1.3 handshake struct inside the shared handshake
struct.
* Fully initialize rrec in tls12_record_layer_open_record_protected()
to avoid confusing some static analyzers.
* Use tls_set_errorx() on OCSP_basic_verify() failure since the latter
does not set errno.
* Convert openssl(1) x509 to new option handling and do the usual
clean up that goes along with it.
* Add SSL_HANDSHAKE_TLS12 for TLSv1.2 specific handshake data.
* Rename new_cipher to cipher to align naming with keyblock or other
parts of the handshake data.
* Avoid mangled output in BIO_debug_callback().
* Fix client initiated renegotiation by replacing use of s->internal-type
with s->server.
* Move the TLSv1.2 record number increment into the new record layer.
* Move finished and peer finished into the handshake struct.
* Avoid transcript initialization when sending a TLS HelloRequest,
fixing server initiated renegotiation.
* Remove pointless assignment in SSL_get0_alpn_selected().
* Provide EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_KEY(3).
* Add missing prototype for d2i_DSAPrivateKey_fp(3) to x509.h.
* Add DTLSv1.2 to openssl(1) s_server and s_client protocol message
logging.
* Avoid leaking param->name in x509_verify_param_zero().
* Avoid a leak in an error path in openssl(1) x509.
* Add some error checking to openssl(1) x509.
* When sending an alert in TLSv1.3, only set its error code when no
other error was set previously. Certain clients rely on specific
SSL_R_ error codes to identify that they are dealing with a self
signed cert.
* Switch to the legacy verifier for the stable release.
* Provide SSL_use_certificate_chain_file(3).
* Provide SSL_set_hostflags(3) and SSL_get0_peername(3).
* Provide various DTLSv1.2 specific functions and defines.
* Document meaning of '*' in the genrsa output.
* Updated documentation for SSL_get_shared_ciphers(3).
* Add documentation for SSL_get_finished(3).
* Document EVP_PKEY_new_CMAC_key(3)
* Document SSL_use_certificate_chain_file(3).
* Document SSL_set_hostflags(3) and SSL_get0_peername(3).
* Update SSL_get_version.3 manual for DTLSv.1.2 support.
* Added '--enable-libtls-only' build option, which builds and installs a
statically-linked libtls, skipping libcrypto and libssl. This is useful
for systems that ship with OpenSSL but wish to also package libtls.
The LibreSSL project continues improvement of the codebase to reflect modern,
safe programming practices. We welcome feedback and improvements from the
broader community. Thanks to all of the contributors who helped make this
release possible.
