*** Description ***
The wolfSSL embedded SSL library (formerly CyaSSL) is a lightweight SSL/TLS
library written in ANSI C and targeted for embedded, RTOS, and
resource-constrained environments - primarily because of its small size, speed,
and feature set. It is commonly used in standard operating environments as well
because of its royalty-free pricing and excellent cross platform support.
wolfSSL supports industry standards up to the current TLS 1.3 and DTLS 1.2
levels, is up to 20 times smaller than OpenSSL, and offers progressive ciphers
such as ChaCha20, Curve25519, and Blake2b. User benchmarking and feedback
reports dramatically better performance when using wolfSSL over OpenSSL.
wolfSSL is powered by the wolfCrypt library. Two versions of the wolfCrypt
cryptography library have been FIPS 140-2 validated (Certificate #2425 and
certificate #3389). For additional information, visit the wolfCrypt FIPS FAQ
(https://www.wolfssl.com/license/fips/) or contact fips@wolfssl.com
*** Why choose wolfSSL? ***
There are many reasons to choose wolfSSL as your embedded SSL solution. Some of
the top reasons include size (typical footprint sizes range from 20-100 kB),
support for the newest standards (SSL 3.0, TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.2, TLS 1.3,
DTLS 1.0, and DTLS 1.2), current and progressive cipher support (including
stream ciphers), multi-platform, royalty free, and an OpenSSL compatibility API
to ease porting into existing applications which have previously used the
OpenSSL package. For a complete feature list, see chapter 4 of the wolfSSL
manual. (https://www.wolfssl.com/docs/wolfssl-manual/ch4/)
*** Notes, Please read ***
Note 1)
wolfSSL as of 3.6.6 no longer enables SSLv3 by default. wolfSSL also no longer
supports static key cipher suites with PSK, RSA, or ECDH. This means if you
plan to use TLS cipher suites you must enable DH (DH is on by default), or
enable ECC (ECC is on by default), or you must enable static key cipher suites
with
WOLFSSL_STATIC_DH
WOLFSSL_STATIC_RSA
or
WOLFSSL_STATIC_PSK
though static key cipher suites are deprecated and will be removed from future
versions of TLS. They also lower your security by removing PFS.
When compiling ssl.c, wolfSSL will now issue a compiler error if no cipher
suites are available. You can remove this error by defining
WOLFSSL_ALLOW_NO_SUITES in the event that you desire that, i.e., you're not
using TLS cipher suites.
Note 2)
wolfSSL takes a different approach to certificate verification than OpenSSL
does. The default policy for the client is to verify the server, this means
that if you don't load CAs to verify the server you'll get a connect error,
no signer error to confirm failure (-188).
If you want to mimic OpenSSL behavior of having SSL_connect succeed even if
verifying the server fails and reducing security you can do this by calling:
wolfSSL_CTX_set_verify(ctx, SSL_VERIFY_NONE, 0);
before calling wolfSSL_new();. Though it's not recommended.
Note 3)
The enum values SHA, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512 are no longer available when
wolfSSL is built with --enable-opensslextra (OPENSSL_EXTRA) or with the macro
NO_OLD_SHA_NAMES. These names get mapped to the OpenSSL API for a single call
hash function. Instead the name WC_SHA, WC_SHA256, WC_SHA384 and WC_SHA512
should be used for the enum name.
*** end Notes ***
# wolfSSL Release 5.2.0 (Feb 21, 2022)
## Vulnerabilities
* \[High\] A TLS v1.3 server who requires mutual authentication can be
bypassed. If a malicious client does not send the certificate_verify
message a client can connect without presenting a certificate even
if the server requires one. Thank you to Aina Toky Rasoamanana and
Olivier Levillain of Télécom SudParis.
* \[High\] A TLS v1.3 client attempting to authenticate a TLS v1.3
server can have its certificate check bypassed. If the sig_algo in
the certificate_verify message is different than the certificate
message checking may be bypassed. Thank you to Aina Toky Rasoamanana and
Olivier Levillain of Télécom SudParis.
## New Feature Additions
* Example applications for Renesas RX72N with FreeRTOS+IoT
* Renesas FSP 3.5.0 support for RA6M3
* For TLS 1.3, improved checks on order of received messages.
* Support for use of SHA-3 cryptography instructions available in
ARMv8.2-A architecture extensions. (For Apple M1)
* Support for use of SHA-512 cryptography instructions available in
ARMv8.2-A architecture extensions. (For Apple M1)
* Fixes for clang -Os on clang >= 12.0.0
* Expose Sequence Numbers so that Linux TLS (kTLS) can be configured
* Fix bug in TLSX_ALPN_ParseAndSet when using ALPN select callback.
* Allow DES3 with FIPS v5-dev.
* Include HMAC for deterministic ECC sign build
* Add --enable-chrony configure option. This sets build options needed
to build the Chrony NTP (Network Time Protocol) service.
* Add support for STM32U575xx boards.
* Fixes for NXP’s SE050 Ed25519/Curve25519.
* TLS: Secure renegotiation info on by default for compatibility.
* Inline C code version of ARM32 assembly for cryptographic algorithms
available and compiling for improved performance on ARM platforms
* Configure HMAC: define NO_HMAC to disable HMAC (default: enabled)
* ISO-TP transport layer support added to wolfio for TLS over CAN Bus
* Fix initialization bug in SiLabs AES support
* Domain and IP check is only performed on leaf certificates
## ARM PSA Support (Platform Security Architecture) API
* Initial support added for ARM’s Platform Security Architecture (PSA)
API in wolfCrypt which allows support of ARM PSA enabled devices by
wolfSSL, wolfSSH, and wolfBoot and wolfCrypt FIPS.
* Included algorithms: ECDSA, ECDH, HKDF, AES, SHA1, SHA256, SHA224, RNG
## ECICE Updates
* Support for more encryption algorithms: AES-256-CBC, AES-128-CTR,
AES-256-CTR
* Support for compressed public keys in messages.
## Math Improvements
* Improved performance of X448 and Ed448 through inlining Karatsuba in
square and multiplication operations for 128-bit implementation
(64-bit platforms with 128-bit type support).
* SP Math C implementation: fix for corner case in curve specific
implementations of Montgomery Reduction (P-256, P-384).
* SP math all: assembly snippets added for ARM Thumb. Performance
improvement on platform.
* SP math all: ARM64/32 sp_div_word assembly snippets added to remove
dependency on __udiv3.
* SP C implementation: multiplication of two signed types with overflow
is undefined in C. Now cast to unsigned type before multiplication is
performed.
* SP C implementation correctly builds when using CFLAG: -m32
## OpenSSL Compatibility Layer
* Added DH_get_2048_256 to compatibility layer.
* wolfSSLeay_version now returns the version of wolfSSL
* Added C++ exports for API’s in wolfssl/openssl/crypto.h. This allows
better compatibility when building with a C++ compiler.
