Hello Daiki and Stephan, thanks for your feedback! I'll describe my context to explain my needs with ECDH.
I'm the author of a library called Rhonabwy [1], this library implements JOSE standards [2], in C, using GnuTLS to implement all cryptographic routines.
This library is used in my SSO Server glewlwyd [3] to implement signed and/or encrypted requests and response between parties.
In my prototype, the ECDH-ES key management works using _gnutls_ecdh_compute_key (I only need this function).
There are 2 feedbacks though: 1- I have a memory leak in the _gnutls_ecdh_compute_key function I've attached a sample code to reproduce the problem and the valgrind output2- The input paramters for the _gnutls_ecdh_compute_key functions are gnutls_datum_t of exported values from the ECC keys. I think a public function would rather have gnutls_privkey_t, gnutls_pubkey_t and the gnutls_datum_t *Z output
Le 2021-02-22 à 10 h 32, Stephan Mueller a écrit :
The impact on FIPS is as follows:
- If the newly conceived ECDH API only available in non-FIPS mode, we have no
impact.
- If the newly conceived ECDH API is only meant to be an "internal" API that
is not supposed to be used by normal users, we are fine.
- If the newly conceived API is to be used as a truly normal API that offers
generic (EC)DH operation, the following recently added checks must be invoked
by this API:
* the received remote public key must be validated
* during local key pair generation, the key pair must be validated
* after generating the shared secret, it must be validated
I'm very willing to help with that with test cases and help with the code if required.
