2025-02-09crypto: sig - Prepare for algorithms with variable signature sizeLukas Wunner
The callers of crypto_sig_sign() assume that the signature size is always equivalent to the key size. This happens to be true for RSA, which is currently the only algorithm implementing the ->sign() callback. But it is false e.g. for X9.62 encoded ECDSA signatures because they have variable length. Prepare for addition of a ->sign() callback to such algorithms by letting the callback return the signature size (or a negative integer on error). When testing the ->sign() callback in test_sig_one(), use crypto_sig_maxsize() instead of crypto_sig_keysize() to verify that the test vector's signature does not exceed an algorithm's maximum signature size. There has been a relatively recent effort to upstream ECDSA signature generation support which may benefit from this change: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20220908200036.2034-1-ignat@cloudflare.com/ However the main motivation for this commit is to reduce the number of crypto_sig_keysize() callers: This function is about to be changed to return the size in bits instead of bytes and that will require amending most callers to divide the return value by 8.

As virtual addresses in general may not be suitable for DMA, always perform a copy before using them in an SG list. Fixes: 1e562deacecc ("crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Migrate to sig_alg backend") Reported-by: Zorro Lang <zlang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2024-11-10crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Reinstate support for legacy protocolsLukas Wunner
Commit 1e562deacecc ("crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Migrate to sig_alg backend") enforced that rsassa-pkcs1 sign/verify operations specify a hash algorithm. That is necessary because per RFC 8017 sec 8.2, a hash algorithm identifier must be prepended to the hash before generating or verifying the signature ("Full Hash Prefix"). However the commit went too far in that it changed user space behavior: KEYCTL_PKEY_QUERY system calls now return -EINVAL unless they specify a hash algorithm. Intel Wireless Daemon (iwd) is one application issuing such system calls (for EAP-TLS). Closer analysis of the Embedded Linux Library (ell) used by iwd reveals that the problem runs even deeper: When iwd uses TLS 1.1 or earlier, it not only queries for keys, but performs sign/verify operations without specifying a hash algorithm. These legacy TLS versions concatenate an MD5 to a SHA-1 hash and omit the Full Hash Prefix: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/libs/ell/ell.git/tree/ell/tls-suites.c#n97 TLS 1.1 was deprecated in 2021 by RFC 8996, but removal of support was inadvertent in this case. It probably should be coordinated with iwd maintainers first. So reinstate support for such legacy protocols by defaulting to hash algorithm "none" which uses an empty Full Hash Prefix. If it is later on decided to remove TLS 1.1 support but still allow KEYCTL_PKEY_QUERY without a hash algorithm, that can be achieved by reverting the present commit and replacing it with the following patch: https://lore.kernel.org/r/ZxalYZwH5UiGX5uj@wunner.de/ It's worth noting that Python's cryptography library gained support for such legacy use cases very recently, so they do seem to still be a thing. The Python developers identified IKE version 1 as another protocol omitting the Full Hash Prefix: https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/10226 https://github.com/pyca/cryptography/issues/5495 The author of those issues, Zoltan Kelemen, spent considerable effort searching for test vectors but only found one in a 2019 blog post by Kevin Jones. Add it to testmgr.h to verify correctness of this feature. Examination of wpa_supplicant as well as various IKE daemons (libreswan, strongswan, isakmpd, raccoon) has determined that none of them seems to use the kernel's Key Retention Service, so iwd is the only affected user space application known so far.

2024-10-05crypto: sig - Rename crypto_sig_maxsize() to crypto_sig_keysize()Lukas Wunner
crypto_sig_maxsize() is a bit of a misnomer as it doesn't return the maximum signature size, but rather the key size. Rename it as well as all implementations of the ->max_size callback. A subsequent commit introduces a crypto_sig_maxsize() function which returns the actual maximum signature size. While at it, change the return type of crypto_sig_keysize() from int to unsigned int for consistency with crypto_akcipher_maxsize(). None of the callers checks for a negative return value and an error condition can always be indicated by returning zero.

2024-10-05crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Avoid copying hash prefixLukas Wunner
When constructing the EMSA-PKCS1-v1_5 padding for the sign operation, a buffer for the padding is allocated and the Full Hash Prefix is copied into it. The padding is then passed to the RSA decrypt operation as an sglist entry which is succeeded by a second sglist entry for the hash. Actually copying the hash prefix around is completely unnecessary. It can simply be referenced from a third sglist entry which sits in-between the padding and the digest.

2024-10-05crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Harden digest length verificationLukas Wunner
The RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 sign operation currently only checks that the digest length is less than "key_size - hash_prefix->size - 11". The verify operation merely checks that it's more than zero. Actually the precise digest length is known because the hash algorithm is specified upon instance creation and the digest length is encoded into the final byte of the hash algorithm's Full Hash Prefix. So check for the exact digest length rather than solely relying on imprecise maximum/minimum checks. Keep the maximum length check for the sign operation as a safety net, but drop the now unnecessary minimum check for the verify operation.

2024-10-05crypto: rsassa-pkcs1 - Migrate to sig_alg backendLukas Wunner
A sig_alg backend has just been introduced with the intent of moving all asymmetric sign/verify algorithms to it one by one. Migrate the sign/verify operations from rsa-pkcs1pad.c to a separate rsassa-pkcs1.c which uses the new backend. Consequently there are now two templates which build on the "rsa" akcipher_alg: * The existing "pkcs1pad" template, which is instantiated as an akcipher_instance and retains the encrypt/decrypt operations of RSAES-PKCS1-v1_5 (RFC 8017 sec 7.2). * The new "pkcs1" template, which is instantiated as a sig_instance and contains the sign/verify operations of RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 (RFC 8017 sec 8.2). In a separate step, rsa-pkcs1pad.c could optionally be renamed to rsaes-pkcs1.c for clarity. Additional "oaep" and "pss" templates could be added for RSAES-OAEP and RSASSA-PSS. Note that it's currently allowed to allocate a "pkcs1pad(rsa)" transform without specifying a hash algorithm. That makes sense if the transform is only used for encrypt/decrypt and continues to be supported. But for sign/verify, such transforms previously did not insert the Full Hash Prefix into the padding. The resulting message encoding was incompliant with EMSA-PKCS1-v1_5 (RFC 8017 sec 9.2) and therefore nonsensical. From here on in, it is no longer allowed to allocate a transform without specifying a hash algorithm if the transform is used for sign/verify operations. This simplifies the code because the insertion of the Full Hash Prefix is no longer optional, so various "if (digest_info)" clauses can be removed. There has been a previous attempt to forbid transform allocation without specifying a hash algorithm, namely by commit c0d20d22e0ad ("crypto: rsa-pkcs1pad - Require hash to be present"). It had to be rolled back with commit b3a8c8a5ebb5 ("crypto: rsa-pkcs1pad: Allow hash to be optional [ver #2]"), presumably because it broke allocation of a transform which was solely used for encrypt/decrypt, not sign/verify. Avoid such breakage by allowing transform allocation for encrypt/decrypt with and without specifying a hash algorithm (and simply ignoring the hash algorithm in the former case). So again, specifying a hash algorithm is now mandatory for sign/verify, but optional and ignored for encrypt/decrypt. The new sig_alg API uses kernel buffers instead of sglists, which avoids the overhead of copying signature and digest from sglists back into kernel buffers. rsassa-pkcs1.c is thus simplified quite a bit. sig_alg is always synchronous, whereas the underlying "rsa" akcipher_alg may be asynchronous. So await the result of the akcipher_alg, similar to crypto_akcipher_sync_{en,de}crypt(). As part of the migration, rename "rsa_digest_info" to "hash_prefix" to adhere to the spec language in RFC 9580. Otherwise keep the code unmodified wherever possible to ease reviewing and bisecting. Leave several simplification and hardening opportunities to separate commits. rsassa-pkcs1.c uses modern __free() syntax for allocation of buffers which need to be freed by kfree_sensitive(), hence a DEFINE_FREE() clause for kfree_sensitive() is introduced herein as a byproduct.
