package mirage-crypto-rng-mirage

v0.8.0 (2020-06-18)

• New package mirage-crypto-rng-mirage which contains the entropy collection code for MirageOS (#69 requested by @samoht, implemented by @hannesm)

• Mirage_crypto_rng_lwt.initialize is not inside the Lwt monad anymore, and thus can be called by libraries at top level (#69, requested by @avsm @xguerin @talex5 in mirage/ocaml-conduit#318, implemented by @hannesm)

• Both Mirage_crypto_rng_lwt.initialize and Mirage_crypto_rng_unix.initialize don't do anything if called a second time (#69, implemented by @hannesm)

• Entropy source registration is now open and done via Entropy.register_source : string -> source, instead of a closed variant (#69, fixes #68, implemented by @hannesm)

v0.7.0 (2020-05-18)

• CPU feature detection (AESNI, SSE3, PCLMULQ) at runtime instead of compile time (#53 @Julow, fixed MirageOS support #61, review by @hannesm) performance hit up to 5%

• Revise entropy collection (#64 @hannesm review by @dinosaure @cfcs) mirage-crypto-entropy has been folded into mirage-crypto-rng.{unix,lwt,mirage}

  • the RNG is no longer fork() safe, if you use fork in your code, be sure to reseed the RNG in the child process

  • on Unix and Lwt, the used RNG is Fortuna, seeded by getrandom(), rdrand/rdseed, and whirlwind

  • Mirage_crypto_rng_lwt does entropy collection for Lwt applications

  • entropy collection is now similar to FreeBSD:

    • rdrand/rdseed is executed in a separate task (by default every second)

    • on Unix, getrandom() is executed in another separate task (by default every 10 seconds)

    • on every enter of the Lwt event loop, some bits of rdtsc are collected (rdrand/rdseed is not on each even loop enter anymore)

  • Fortuna only uses entropy pools if the given period is exhausted (defaults to 1s), and the pool size exceeds 64 bytes

  • The unseeded generator exception prints instructions how to seed the RNG

• 32 bit support (for ghash), requested by @TImada in #60, #65 @hannesm

• use Eqaf_cstruct.find_uint8 instead of Cs.ct_find_uint8 (#52 @dinosaure)

• add (:standard) in C flags to allow cross-compilation #47 @samoht

• Mirage_crypto.Uncommon: remove several functions (Cs.create, Option), requires OCaml 4.08 (#49 #51 @hannesm)

• remove ocplib-endian dependency, use Bytes directly (since 4.07) #51 @hannesm

• bitfn.h cleanup (#56 #58 @hannesm)

• fix build if opam is not available (#66 @hannesm)

• update test.yml GitHub actions (#44 #57 @imbsky)

• Travis CI for arm64 (#55 @hannesm)

v0.6.2 (2020-03-19)

• Do not validate hardcoded DH groups to speedup initializatio time (reported in #43 by @rbardou, fixed in #42 by @hannesm)

v0.6.1 (2020-03-15)

• Add Windows 10+ support (#39 @avsm, review by @hannesm @dinosaure)

• Fix unix stubs to be allocating in case of exception (#39 @avsm review by @hannesm @dinosaure)

• Add GitHub Actions CI (#39 @avsm)

• Rebuild source if the MIRAGE_CRYPTO_ACCELERATE environment variable changes value (#40 @avsm)

v0.6.0 (2020-03-11)

Initial release as mirage-crypto, based on nocrypto 0.5.4 (from January 2017), written by David Kaloper, and mirage-entropy 0.5.1 (February 2020). The goal is to maintain mirage-crypto collaboratively with required reviews for all pull requests, and a CI setup for multiple platforms, thus issues are caught early. The minimum targeted OCaml version is 4.07.0. Mirage-crypto and nocrypto can be installed in the same opam switch, and also linked into the same binary.

The major difference is a split into four opam packages:

• mirage-crypto contains the hash algorithms and ciphers

• mirage-crypto-pk contains the public key cryptography

• mirage-crypto-rng contains the Random Number Generators

• mirage-crypto-entropy contains entropy seeding code used by MirageOS (previously mirage-entropy)

Only mirage-crypto-pk depends on zarith and gmp, the dependency cone of the other packages is small.

Changes from nocrypto 0.5.4/mirage-entropy 0.5.1:

• Dune is used as build system (no longer pack()ed, no optional dependencies)

• Base64 has been removed, use base64

• Numeric has been removed, Mirage_crypto_pk.Z_extra provides to/of_cstruct_be

• RNG generators over numeric types (Rng.Int / Int32 / Int64) have been removed use randomconv

• For random generation of Z.t, previously Rng.Z, now Mirage_crypto_pk.Z_extra.gen and gen_r are provided

mirage-crypto

• Hash: Change of the hashing interface Hash.S:

  • t is now immutable;

  • feed and get are therefore referentially transparent; and

  • digestv was replaced by digesti. Old behavior of feed and get can be replicated by wrapping a t in a reference cell. digestv can be obtained by combining digesti with List.iter.

  • New functions: Hash.S.hmaci, Hash.digesti, Hash.maci

  • The type Hash.hash cannot be converted to a S-expression anymore

• Counter module got removed

• CTR mode: custom type ctr for the counter

• GCM is accelerated (with pclmulqdq and SSE3)

• CCM now computes correct tag with empty additional data

• CCM fails with Invalid_argument when short or long nonce is used (previously assert false)

• CCM decryption of empty ciphertext no longer fails

• GCM fails on empty IV

mirage-crypto-pk

• key data structures are private, smart constructors validate the key data

• DSA blinding now blinds the entire computation of s (previously r was blinded), same as what OpenSSL does

• RSA decrypt/sign has an optional argument (crt_hardening) to check whether the computed signature is valid (default true for PKCS1 signatures), avoiding Lenstra's CRT attack (mentioned again by Weimer)

• use Eqaf_cstruct.equal instead of home-grown ct_eq

• bindings with a bits argument are labeled to avoid confusion of bits and bytes

• Dh secret is now a pair of group and secret, Dh.shared no longer gets the group as separate argument

• the powm_sec function is used to improve timing side channels mitigation (see https://gmplib.org/~tege/modexp-silent.pdf for further detalls). RSA still uses (lacking alternatives) Z.erem and Z.mul/add/sub without timing mitigations, introduces 20-25% performance penalty (as shown below, and discussed in the pdf)

mirage-crypto-rng

• Default RNG is now Null (previously: Fortuna)

• The Mirage_crypto_rng_unix.initialize () sets the default RNG to direct syscalls to getrandom() (on Linux) or getentropy() (on BSD and macOS). Previously, /dev/urandom or /dev/random were used.to seed a Fortuna RNG. The Mirage_crypto_rng is now fork-safe on Unix systems: the child process no longer starts with the RNG seed of the parent.

• As noted above, the generators for numeric types have been removed.

mirage-crypto-entropy

• Control flow inverted, now Mirage_crypto_entropy sets the default RNG in Mirage_crypto_rng, and feeds this rng - previously, a RNG could register a callback to invoke whenever entropy was harvested.

• AMD CPUs with bad rdrand/rdseed, which always return -1, are detected and not used

• Initialization: in addition to whirlwind, rdrand/rdseed is used four times to seed the RNG (including check of the CR flag to ensure random was generated); if no hardware RNG is available, whirlwind is executed thrice.

These changes were prepared and reviewed by @pqwy, @hannesm, @cfcs, @dinosaure, @emillon, @haesbaert, @mseri, @samoht, @reynir, @avsm, @TheLortex, @marmarek.

• Removed ad-hoc key marshalling functions as key material typically comes non-trivially encoded anyways.

• Changed how module interfaces for the packed module are handled: module type of constructs are gone.

• More consistent errors in Rsa.

• Small API breakage here and there.

nocrypto 0.2.2 2014-11-04:

• Replaced hashing sources with the ones from hs-cryptohash (https://github.com/vincenthz/hs-cryptohash) by Vincent Hanquez.

• Renamed various symbols likely to conflict with other crypto libraries.

nocrypto 0.2.0 2014-10-30:

• DSA (initial version contributed by Hannes Mehnert hannes@mehnert.org).

• CCM mode for AES (contributed by Hannes Mehnert hannes@mehnert.org).

• Switched from hand written stubs to ctypes for intefacing with the C code.

• Packed the module to avoid clobbering global namespace; some modules renamed.

• Various bugfixes and improvements.

nocrypto 0.1.0 2014-07-08:

• Initial (beta) release.

mirage-entropy 0.1.6 (06-July-2014)

• Rework the module to be event-driven, more in line with entropy gathering.

mirage-entropy 0.1.5 (06-July-2014)

• Guarantee that all of the required entropy is read on Unix.

• Add a Entropy_xen_weak that uses the builtin Random.self_init as a measure of last-resort.

mirage-entropy 0.1.4 (04-July-2014)

• provide Mirage 1.2.0 interfaces (V1_LWT.ENTROPY).

• name modules Entropy_xen and Entropy_unix to not clash.

mirage-entropy 0.1.3 (03-July-2014)

• Unbreak build: ocamlfind wasn't able to locate the package previously.

mirage-entropy 0.1.2 (03-July-2014)

• Use /dev/urandom instead of /dev/random (for non-blocking behaviour).

mirage-entropy 0.1.1 (03-July-2014)

• Use Makefile instead of oasis as build system.

mirage-entropy 0.1.0 (03-July-2014)

• Initial release: on Unix, use /dev/random; on XEN, error out.
