[Bug 1594748] Re: CRYPTO_set_mem_functions() is broken

 

Hello Timo, or anyone else affected,

Accepted openssl into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/1.0.2g-
1ubuntu4.3 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

  CRYPTO_set_mem_functions() always returns 0 because library
  initialization already calls CRYPTO_malloc() and disables it:

  #0  CRYPTO_malloc (num=num@entry=1168, file=file@entry=0x7ffff70ae02c "fips_drbg_lib.c",
      line=line@entry=106) at mem.c:329
  #1  0x00007ffff70596df in FIPS_drbg_new (type=type@entry=0, flags=flags@entry=0)

  #7  0x00007ffff7de75fb in call_init (env=0x7fffffffe5f8, argv=0x7fffffffe5e8, argc=1,
      l=<optimized out>) at dl-init.c:30
  #8  _dl_init (main_map=main_map@entry=0x640380, argc=1, argv=0x7fffffffe5e8,
      env=0x7fffffffe5f8) at dl-init.c:120

  This doesn't happen in upstream OpenSSL or in Debian's OpenSSL.
  Looking at the patches, this is caused by FIPS_drbg_init() in
  openssl-1.0.2g-fips.patch:

  +    if (!(dctx->xflags & DRBG_FLAG_TEST)) {
  +        if (!FIPS_drbg_health_check(dctx)) {
  +            FIPSerr(FIPS_F_FIPS_DRBG_INIT, FIPS_R_SELFTEST_FAILURE);
  +            return 0;
  +        }
  +    }

  I don't want any FIPS mode enabled though, so does it really even need
  to call RAND_init_fips() then?
