ANNOUNCE: Nettle-3.2
by nisse＠lysator.liu.se 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

I'm happy to announce a new release of GNU Nettle, a low-level cryptographics library. This is mainly a bug fix release, with few new features. The Nettle home page can be found at https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle/, and the manual at https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle/nettle.html. NEWS for the Nettle 3.2 release Bug fixes: * The SHA3 implementation is updated according to the FIPS 202 standard. It is not interoperable with earlier versions of Nettle. Thanks to Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. To easily differentiate at compile time, sha3.h defines the constant NETTLE_SHA3_FIPS202. * Fix corner-case carry propagation bugs affecting elliptic curve operations on the curves secp_256r1 and secp_384r1 on certain platforms, including x86_64. Reported by Hanno Böck. New features: * New functions for RSA private key operations, identified by the "_tr" suffix, with better resistance to side channel attacks and to hardware or software failures which could break the CRT optimization. See the Nettle manual for details. Initial patch by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos. * New functions nettle_version_major, nettle_version_minor, as a run-time variant of the compile-time constants NETTLE_VERSION_MAJOR and NETTLE_VERSION_MINOR. Optimizations: * New ARM Neon implementation of the chacha stream cipher. Miscellaneous: * ABI detection on mips, with improved default libdir location. Contributed by Klaus Ziegler. * Fixes for ARM assembly syntax, to work better with the clang assembler. Thanks to Jukka Ukkonen. * Disabled use of ifunc relocations for fat builds, to fix problems most easily triggered by using dlopen RTLD_NOW. The shared library names are libnettle.so.6.2 and libhogweed.so.4.2, with sonames still libnettle.so.6 and libhogweed.so.4. It is intended to be fully binary compatible with nettle-3.1. https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/nettle/nettle-3.2.tar.gz ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/nettle/nettle-3.2.tar.gz https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/archive/nettle-3.2.tar.gz Happy hacking, /Niels Möller -- Niels Möller.

Nettle-3.2 plans
by nisse＠lysator.liu.se 28 Jan '16

28 Jan '16

Now I think the documentation of the new RSA tr functions is in reasonable shape, and I'd like to get a release out real soon now. I've put a release candidate at https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/archive/nettle-3.2rc1.tar.gz, and I've updated the release planning at https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle/plan.html. I've spent the day doing tests on various emulated systems. The ARM and PPC emulators have completed the tests with no issues, MIPS and M68K emulators still working hard. Currently, I'm doing tests on gnu/linux and freebsd (the sparc solaris systems I used to do some testing on have been powered down). If no last minute problems are discovered, I plan to make the release earliest on Wednesday evening (January 27). All testing is highly appreciated. In particular, if Mac, Windows, or some more obscure systems are important to you, now is the time to test. As a reminder, non-GNU make programs are not really supported. Review of the NEWS file and the new RSA material in the manual would also be very nice. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred. Keyid C0B98E26.

dongsheng zhang <dongsheng.zhang(a)oracle.com> writes: > We have found that nettle-pbkdf2 dumps core when executed with an > unknown option. Thanks for the bug report. There was a missing "case '?':" in the option handling, and a similar bug also in nettle-hash. Fix checked in now, the programs should display a usage message and exit. (Some of the other programs just call exit (EXIT_FAILURE) in this situation, and some lack usage messages, so it's not completely consistent). Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller.

using gitlab CI for nettle
by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 25 Jan '16

25 Jan '16

Hi, gitlab now allows mirroring projects so I've setup a mirror of nettle at gitlab main server: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/nettle This has the advantage of using gnutls' CI servers. For that I attach the file needed to be present to enable using these servers. On every commit nettle will be tested for building + make check, in the available platforms and a mail will be sent to the author/committer. An example run can be seen at: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/nettle/builds?scope=finished regards, Nikos

Hashing with short input assertion question
by Tim Ruehsen 08 Jan '16

08 Jan '16

Hi, just experienced a crash (assertion) when using md5 on short input. test: md5.c:81: nettle_md5_digest: Assertion `length <= 16' failed. The code is struct md5_ctx md5; md5_init(&md5); md5_update(&md5, "moin", 4); md5_digest(&md5, 20, digest); My system is Debian SID (libnettle6:amd64 3.1.1-4). The example (http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle/nettle.html#Example) does not mention special handling for short input (nettle_sha1_digest() has a similar assert()). I searched the document for 'padding' but found nothing relevant. How should I proceed ? Pad with 0 bytes ? Is it reasonable to open a Debian bug suggesting to use -DNDEBUG ? IMO, these assertions needs to be disabled on a production system or replaced by proper error handling. It would be fine to have them in the respective -dbg (debugging) package though. Best regards, Tim

Miscalculations on secp384 curve
by Hanno Böck 15 Dec '15

15 Dec '15

Hi, Attached is an example elliptic curve multiplication that will produce a wrong result in nettle. It's a multiplication of these coordinates 23000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000110011C2DD0000000000000000000 46BE3FEF75FCA4BD52CE28EC3F1483A05EE154965B05282F9029E14277409908C0EBAAD2CA5449FFA61FEC78473816BC with this scalar 23000000000000C1DD3FF800E83E2CACA1010A21 The example code will do the calculation with both openssl and nettle and will produce different results (I have verified the result with nss, which produces the same result as openssl). Compile with gcc nettle-nistp384-miscalc.c -lhogweed -lgmp -lcrypto -- Hanno Böck http://hboeck.de/ mail/jabber: hanno(a)hboeck.de GPG: BBB51E42

secp256 calculation bug (already fixed)
by Hanno Böck 12 Dec '15

12 Dec '15

Hi, I had reported this privately to Niels Möller, but I'm re-sending it here so it's publicly available and archived. (Niels didn't think it's neccesary to keep this private.) The attached example will show a bug in the nistp256 point multiplication of nettle. It compiles a certain curve point with 1 which should not change the coordinates, however it does. Was fixed here: https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle/commit/c71d2c9d20eeebb985e3872e455… -- Hanno Böck http://hboeck.de/ mail/jabber: hanno(a)hboeck.de GPG: BBB51E42

nettle + rsa crt fix
by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos 11 Dec '15

11 Dec '15

Hi, Given this issue in openssl [0] , I think the issue of software errors helping retrieve an RSA key seems less and less foreign. Given its repercussions if such an issue exists (RSA private keys can be retrieved) would it make sense to have a bug fix release with that? regards, Nikos [0]. https://blog.fuzzing-project.org/31-Fuzzing-Math-miscalculations-in-OpenSSL…
