Forthcoming OpenSSL releases


The OpenSSL project team would like to announce the forthcoming release
of OpenSSL versions 1.0.2a, 1.0.1m, 1.0.0r and 0.9.8zf.

These releases will be made available on 19th March. They will fix a
number of security defects. The highest severity defect fixed by these
releases is classified as high severity.

Just for clarity in preparing to use the forthcoming
update:

Has the 1.0.1m source code been mangled by the script that
made it near-impossible to port local changes to 1.0.2, or
will it retain the same code formatting as in the rest of
the 1.0.1 series?

Similarly, will 1.0.0r be mangled or will it retain the
same code formatting as in the rest of the 1.0.0 series?

Similarly, will 0.9.8zf be mangled or will it retain the
same code formatting as in the rest of the 0.9.8 series?

I prefer the term improved over mangled! ;-)

The answer is, yes, all branches (including 1.0.1, 1.0.0 and 0.9.8) have
been reformatted according to the new coding style.

It is perfectly possible, if a little fiddly, to reformat your local
patches to the new style. I have done so myself for a number of my own
patches. I included some outline instructions on how to do it in my
recent blog post on the reformat:

https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2015/02/11/code-reformat-finished/

Long read, and lots of internal details of how your script
doesn't even work for yourown code...

However the patch rebasing instructions are *completely
useless* for those of us whomaintain private patches
against releases tarballs.  We *don't* have any of this
in a clone of your gitand we *have no way* to access
intermediary git steps from your partially botched
freeze-reformat-unfreeze-other-work-oopsmorereformat-
other-work sequence.

I guess each of us will have to spend weeks (or more)
manually recreating all our hard work before we can apply
whatever security fixes are hidden in tomorrows tarball.

And it also seems that it is nearly impossible to turn the
changes into a reviewable patch that can be applied to an
existing tree, like the various distributions (on and off
the vendor-sec lists) will need to.

So let's all hope one of the vendors will do your job for
you and transform the new releases into patches against
the previous tarballs, before the embargo is lifted
tomorrow, or soon after.

There should be no reason why the instructions cannot be adapted to
patch files, if that is what you are using. You will still need access
to git to do it - but the git repository is publicly accessible.

Re: [openssl-users] [openssl-announce] Forthcoming OpenSSL releases

2015-03-18 Thread John Foley
We maintain our own derivative of OpenSSL and haven't had any
significant issues due to the code reformat.  We simply run the reformat
script on our downstream derivative.  We can then generate patch files
of our changes and reapply them to new OpenSSL releases.  It was fairly
straight forward.

IMHO, the code reformat was long overdue.  The prior lack of consistent
coding style was an abomination, making the code more difficult to read
and maintain.  Sometimes taking a step forward results in some pain. 
This was a good investment for the future.

+1 for the reformat.

Nice, so the extra work is minimal for complete forks of
OpenSSL.

The extra work is also documented (in a place not linked from
the wiki) for those who maintain a git fork of the OpenSSL
repository.

But I have not yet seen a meaningful recipe for those of us
who maintain a traditional set of feature patches against
the released tarballs, nicely organized for future
contribution.

Maybe they want us all to fork OpenSSL :-)

I'm not doing anything different for the ssh pubkey. I'm able to decode it

Attaching my entire code here. After getting the base64 decoded I'm

It's as simple as you stated, indeed.

The reformatting was a good thing to do. Also, it makes sense to me to apply it

Re: [openssl-users] base64 decode in C

2015-03-18 Thread Scott Neugroschl
I believe the SSH pubkey is binary data, not ASCII, so strlen() will not work 
on it if it has embedded NUL chars.
As Dave Thompson suggested, instead of strlen(), use the length returned from 
BIO_read.

[openssl-users] base64 decode in C

2015-03-18 Thread Prashant Bapat
Hi,

Most likely this has been answered before, please bear with me.

I'm trying to use the base64 decode function in C. Below is the function.

char *b64_decode(unsigned char *input, int length)
{
BIO *b64, *bmem;
char *buffer = (char *)malloc(length);
memset(buffer, 0, length);
b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
bmem = BIO_new_mem_buf((void*)input, length);
bmem = BIO_push(b64, bmem);
BIO_set_flags(bmem, BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL);
BIO_read(bmem, buffer, length);
BIO_free_all(bmem);
return buffer;
}

This works well for simple b64 encoded strings like hello world! etc. But
when I want to b64 decode the contents of a SSH public key, it fails.
Returns nothing.

What I'm trying to get to is the SSH public key fingerprint which is the
MD5 hash of the base64 decoded part of the public key.

This decodes fine.

dGhpcyBpcyBhd2Vzb21lCg==  : this is awesome

This does not.

What I'm I doing wrong ?

Btw in the command line both decode. Using echo string | openssl enc
-base64 -d -A

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Re: [openssl-users] [openssl-announce] Forthcoming OpenSSL releases

2015-03-18 Thread Dr. Matthias St. Pierre
Hello,

Here is a recipe to guide you through the reformatting.
It worked nicely for me. I wrote a small bash shell script
which helped me do the bulk conversion, see attachment
Hope you'll find this information helpful.

In following I briefly describe the steps how you can

 1) get your patches into git (if not yet done)
 2) do the reformatting of the commits in git, with the
help of my script
 3) rebase your patches to the current release
 4) recreate the patches using 'git format-patch'


If your patches are already maintained in a git repository,
you may skip step 1)


1) If you only have patches, it's a good idea to get
your own clone of the git repository

   git clone git://git.openssl.org/openssl.git
   cd openssl

now create a branch off the vanilla release to
which your patches apply (say, OpenSSL 1.0.1k)

   git checkout -b mypatches OpenSSL_1_0_1k

apply your patches one after the other, creating
a single commit for each with meaningful commit
messages

  (If you don't know how to do this in git, you may
   want to see http://git-scm.com/doc)


2) Now we assume that
  a) you already have an OpenSSL git repository
  b) your patches are on a branch called 'mypatches',
 which were branched from one of the stable branches
 before the reformatting (say OpenSSL_1_0_1-stable)
  c) your working copy is clean (no local changes or
 untracked files)
  d) you're running linux (if not, get yourself a Linux VM)


The attached script shows an example of how to automate
the procedure of reformatting every single commit on your
branch and recommitting it. It contains a lot of comments
to explain what it is doing. PLEASE READ THE COMMENTS
CAREFULLY BEFORE RUNNING THE SCRIPT! 

You just have to set the two variables 'branch' and 'upstream' 
at the beginning of the script (marked 'todo') to the name
of your branch and its upstream branch, respectively.

3) After the script has succeeded, you can rebase your
reformatted branch to the head of the stable branch (or
to the tag of the most recent release), e.g.

git checkout -b mypatches-reformatted mypatches-post-auto-reformat
git rebase OpenSSL_1_0_1-stable


4) Now you can have git recreate your patches automatically
with a single command:

git format-patch $(git merge-base HEAD OpenSSL_1_0_1-stable)..HEAD
 
[5) Now you can keep using the git repository to manage new patches.
Due the rebasing capabilites of git, your patches will always
be up to date ]




DISCLAIMER

The script is not 100% fool-proof, it's a demonstration
which may serve as a starting point for you.
In particular, there is no error recovery and no guarantee,
if there are any conflicts or errors in the middle of the
reformating procedure.

So you'll better try it on a copy of your git repository
first.

Nice, so the extra work is minimal for complete forks of OpenSSL.

The extra work is also documented (in a place not linked from the wiki) for
those who maintain a git fork of the OpenSSL repository.

But I have not yet seen a meaningful recipe for those of us who maintain a
traditional set of feature patches against the released tarballs, nicely
organized for future contribution.

Maybe they want us all to fork OpenSSL :-)

 We maintain our own derivative of OpenSSL and haven't had any 
 significant issues due to the code reformat.  We simply run the 
 reformat script on our downstream derivative.  We can then generate 
 patch files of our changes and reapply them to new OpenSSL releases.
 It was fairly straight forward.

 IMHO, the code reformat was long overdue.  The prior lack of 
 consistent coding style was an abomination, making the code more 
 difficult to read and maintain.  Sometimes taking a step forward 
 results in some pain.  This was a good investment for the future.

 +1 for the reformat.

 Forthcoming OpenSSL releases
 

 The OpenSSL project team would like to announce the forthcoming 
 release of OpenSSL versions 1.0.2a, 1.0.1m, 1.0.0r and 0.9.8zf.

 These releases will be made available on 19th March. They will fix 
 a number of security defects. The highest severity defect fixed by 
 these releases is classified as high severity.
 Just for clarity in preparing to use the forthcoming
 update:

 Has the 1.0.1m source code been mangled by the script that made it 
 near-impossible to port local changes to 1.0.2, or will it retain 
 the same code formatting as in the rest of the 1.0.1 series?

 

[openssl-users] FIPS 140-2 hostage rescue underway

2015-03-18 Thread Steve Marquess
As always, if you don't know or care what FIPS 140-2 is then count
yourself lucky and move on (in this case, count yourself *very* lucky).

We have -- we think -- a workaround for the hostage issue that was
blocking the addition of new platforms to the OpenSSL FIPS module
validation via change letter updates. That issue impacted several
platform updates that were already in process (the hostages).

The workaround is messy, ugly, and complex in the finest tradition of
bureaucratic molehill-to-mountain obfuscation. An attempt to describe it
can be found here:

  http://openssl.com/fips/ransom.html

The TL;DR is that the current #1747 validation becomes three validations
that share the same OpenSSL FIPS module (more or less). So, actual use
and deployment of the FIPS module will be the same as before and all
previously tested platforms remain available (that's the big win).
Compliance paperwork will require some careful attention to the multiple
validations which will overlap the same module (the downside). Confusion
is inevitable, feel free to post questions to this list.

-Steve M.

not really, because the return of b64_decode is not a C string; and the 
format specfier %s expects a C string;
