Hi,
This patch is an RFC to discuss the following: step 1 in
dh_is_pubkey_valid requires the public key to be in the range of
1 < y < p - 1. The currently implemented check is 1 < y < p since the
calculation of p - 1 requires the presence of mpi_sub or mpi_sub_ui.
Both functions are currently not implemented and I am not sure we
really need to add them for just this check.
I personally think that the check of 1 < y < p would suffice for now
considering that the verification of step 2 using the modular
exponentiation is implemented as well.
In case mpi_sub is added for another reason, we can update the check
code to be accurate.
The NIST ACVP testing passes with the code provided below.
---8<---
According to SP800-56A section 5.6.2.1, the public key to be processed
for the DH operation shall be checked for appropriateness. The check
shall covers the full verification test in case the domain parameter Q
is provided as defined in SP800-56A section 5.6.2.3.1. If Q is not
provided, the partial check according to SP800-56A section 5.6.2.3.2 is
performed.
The full verification test requires the presence of the domain parameter
Q. Thus, the patch adds the support to handle Q. It is permissible to
not provide the Q value as part of the domain parameters. This implies
that the interface is still backwards-compatible where so far only P and
G are to be provided. However, if Q is provided, it is imported.
Without the test, the NIST ACVP testing fails. After adding this check,
the NIST ACVP testing passes. Testing without providing the Q domain
parameter has been performed to verify the interface has not changed.
