1 Preface
*********
This document demonstrates and explains the GnuTLS library API. A brief
introduction to the protocols and the technology involved is also
included so that an application programmer can better understand the
GnuTLS purpose and actual offerings. Even if GnuTLS is a typical
library software, it operates over several security and cryptographic
protocols which require the programmer to make careful and correct usage
of them. Otherwise it is likely to only obtain a false sense of
security. The term of security is very broad even if restricted to
computer software, and cannot be confined to a single cryptographic
library. For that reason, do not consider any program secure just
because it uses GnuTLS; there are several ways to compromise a program
or a communication line and GnuTLS only helps with some of them.
Although this document tries to be self contained, basic network
programming and public key infrastructure (PKI) knowledge is assumed in
most of it. A good introduction to networking can be found in [*note
STEVENS::], to public key infrastructure in [*note GUTPKI::] and to
security engineering in [*note ANDERSON::].
Updated versions of the GnuTLS software and this document will be
available from <https://www.gnutls.org/>.

2 Introduction to GnuTLS
************************
In brief GnuTLS can be described as a library which offers an API to
access secure communication protocols. These protocols provide privacy
over insecure lines, and were designed to prevent eavesdropping,
tampering, or message forgery.
Technically GnuTLS is a portable ANSI C based library which implements
the protocols ranging from SSL 3.0 to TLS 1.3 (see *note Introduction to
TLS::, for a detailed description of the protocols), accompanied with
the required framework for authentication and public key infrastructure.
Important features of the GnuTLS library include:
• Support for TLS 1.3, TLS 1.2, TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 and optionally SSL
3.0 protocols.
• Support for Datagram TLS 1.0 and 1.2.
• Support for handling and verification of X.509 certificates.
• Support for password authentication using TLS-SRP.
• Support for keyed authentication using TLS-PSK.
• Support for TPM, PKCS #11 tokens and smart-cards.
The GnuTLS library consists of three independent parts, namely the “TLS
protocol part”, the “Certificate part”, and the “Cryptographic back-end”
part. The “TLS protocol part” is the actual protocol implementation,
and is entirely implemented within the GnuTLS library. The “Certificate
part” consists of the certificate parsing, and verification functions
and it uses functionality from the libtasn1 library. The “Cryptographic
back-end” is provided by the nettle and gmplib libraries.

2.1 Downloading and installing
==============================
GnuTLS is available for download at:
<https://www.gnutls.org/download.html>
GnuTLS uses a development cycle where even minor version numbers
indicate a stable release and a odd minor version number indicate a
development release. For example, GnuTLS 1.6.3 denote a stable release
since 6 is even, and GnuTLS 1.7.11 denote a development release since 7
is odd.
GnuTLS depends on ‘nettle’ and ‘gmplib’, and you will need to install it
before installing GnuTLS. The ‘nettle’ library is available from
<https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle/>, while ‘gmplib’ is available
from <https://www.gmplib.org/>. Don’t forget to verify the
cryptographic signature after downloading source code packages.
The package is then extracted, configured and built like many other
packages that use Autoconf. For detailed information on configuring and
building it, refer to the ‘INSTALL’ file that is part of the
distribution archive. Typically you invoke ‘./configure’ and then ‘make
check install’. There are a number of compile-time parameters, as
discussed below.
Several parts of GnuTLS require ASN.1 functionality, which is provided
by a library called libtasn1. A copy of libtasn1 is included in GnuTLS.
If you want to install it separately (e.g., to make it possibly to use
libtasn1 in other programs), you can get it from
<https://www.gnu.org/software/libtasn1/>.
The compression library, ‘libz’, the PKCS #11 helper library ‘p11-kit’,
the TPM library ‘trousers’, as well as the IDN library ‘libidn’(1) are
optional dependencies. Check the README file in the distribution on how
to obtain these libraries.
A few ‘configure’ options may be relevant, summarized below. They
disable or enable particular features, to create a smaller library with
only the required features. Note however, that although a smaller
library is generated, the included programs are not guaranteed to
compile if some of these options are given.
--disable-srp-authentication
--disable-psk-authentication
--disable-anon-authentication
--disable-dhe
--disable-ecdhe
--disable-openssl-compatibility
--disable-dtls-srtp-support
--disable-alpn-support
--disable-heartbeat-support
--disable-libdane
--without-p11-kit
--without-tpm
--without-zlib
For the complete list, refer to the output from ‘configure --help’.

2.2 Installing for a software distribution
==========================================
When installing for a software distribution, it is often desirable to
preconfigure GnuTLS with the system-wide paths and files. There two
important configuration options, one sets the trust store in system,
which are the CA certificates to be used by programs by default (if they
don’t override it), and the other sets to DNSSEC root key file used by
unbound for DNSSEC verification.
For the latter the following configuration option is available, and if
not specified GnuTLS will try to auto-detect the location of that file.
--with-unbound-root-key-file
To set the trust store the following options are available.
--with-default-trust-store-file
--with-default-trust-store-dir
--with-default-trust-store-pkcs11
The first option is used to set a PEM file which contains a list of
trusted certificates, while the second will read all certificates in the
given path. The recommended option is the last, which allows to use a
PKCS #11 trust policy module. That module not only provides the trusted
certificates, but allows the categorization of them using purpose, e.g.,
CAs can be restricted for e-mail usage only, or administrative
restrictions of CAs, for examples by restricting a CA to only issue
certificates for a given DNS domain using NameConstraints. A publicly
available PKCS #11 trust module is p11-kit’s trust module(1).

3 Introduction to TLS and DTLS
******************************
TLS stands for “Transport Layer Security” and is the successor of SSL,
the Secure Sockets Layer protocol [*note SSL3::] designed by Netscape.
TLS is an Internet protocol, defined by IETF(1), described in [*note
RFC5246::]. The protocol provides confidentiality, and authentication
layers over any reliable transport layer. The description, above,
refers to TLS 1.0 but applies to all other TLS versions as the
differences between the protocols are not major.
The DTLS protocol, or “Datagram TLS” [*note RFC4347::] is a protocol
with identical goals as TLS, but can operate under unreliable transport
layers such as UDP. The discussions below apply to this protocol as
well, except when noted otherwise.

File: gnutls.info, Node: TLS layers, Next: The transport layer, Up: Introduction to TLS
3.1 TLS Layers
==============
TLS is a layered protocol, and consists of the record protocol, the
handshake protocol and the alert protocol. The record protocol is to
serve all other protocols and is above the transport layer. The record
protocol offers symmetric encryption, and data authenticity(1). The
alert protocol offers some signaling to the other protocols. It can
help informing the peer for the cause of failures and other error
conditions. *Note The Alert Protocol::, for more information. The
alert protocol is above the record protocol.
The handshake protocol is responsible for the security parameters’
negotiation, the initial key exchange and authentication. *Note The
Handshake Protocol::, for more information about the handshake protocol.
The protocol layering in TLS is shown in *note Figure 3.1:
fig-tls-layers.

---------- Footnotes ----------
(1) In early versions of TLS compression was optionally available as
well. This is no longer the case in recent versions of the protocol.
File: gnutls.info, Node: The transport layer, Next: The TLS record protocol, Prev: TLS layers, Up: Introduction to TLS
3.2 The Transport Layer
=======================
TLS is not limited to any transport layer and can be used above any
transport layer, as long as it is a reliable one. DTLS can be used over
reliable and unreliable transport layers. GnuTLS supports TCP and UDP
layers transparently using the Berkeley sockets API. However, any
transport layer can be used by providing callbacks for GnuTLS to access
the transport layer (for details see *note Setting up the transport
layer::).
File: gnutls.info, Node: The TLS record protocol, Next: The TLS Alert Protocol, Prev: The transport layer, Up: Introduction to TLS
3.3 The TLS record protocol
===========================
The record protocol is the secure communications provider. Its purpose
is to encrypt, and authenticate packets. The record layer functions can
be called at any time after the handshake process is finished, when
there is need to receive or send data. In DTLS however, due to
re-transmission timers used in the handshake out-of-order handshake data
might be received for some time (maximum 60 seconds) after the handshake
process is finished.
The functions to access the record protocol are limited to send and
receive functions, which might, given the importance of this protocol in
TLS, seem awkward. This is because the record protocol’s parameters are
all set by the handshake protocol. The record protocol initially starts
with NULL parameters, which means no encryption, and no MAC is used.
Encryption and authentication begin just after the handshake protocol
has finished.

File: gnutls.info, Node: Encryption algorithms used in the record layer, Next: Compression algorithms and the record layer, Up: The TLS record protocol
3.3.1 Encryption algorithms used in the record layer
----------------------------------------------------
Confidentiality in the record layer is achieved by using symmetric
ciphers like ‘AES’ or ‘CHACHA20’. Ciphers are encryption algorithms
that use a single, secret, key to encrypt and decrypt data. Early
versions of TLS separated between block and stream ciphers and had
message authentication plugged in to them by the protocol, though later
versions switched to using authenticated-encryption (AEAD) ciphers. The
AEAD ciphers are defined to combine encryption and authentication, and
as such they are not only more efficient, as the primitives used are
designed to interoperate nicely, but they are also known to interoperate
in a secure way.
The supported in GnuTLS ciphers and MAC algorithms are shown in *note
Table 3.1: tab:ciphers. and *note Table 3.2: tab:macs.
Algorithm Type Applicable Description
Protocols
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
AES-128-GCM, AEAD TLS 1.2, This is the AES algorithm in the
AES-256-GCM TLS 1.3 authenticated encryption GCM mode.
This mode combines message
authentication and encryption and can
be extremely fast on CPUs that support
hardware acceleration.
AES-128-CCM, AEAD TLS 1.2, This is the AES algorithm in the
AES-256-CCM TLS 1.3 authenticated encryption CCM mode.
This mode combines message
authentication and encryption and is
often used by systems without AES or
GCM acceleration support.
CHACHA20-POLY1305AEAD TLS 1.2, CHACHA20-POLY1305 is an authenticated
TLS 1.3 encryption algorithm based on CHACHA20
cipher and POLY1305 MAC. CHACHA20 is a
refinement of SALSA20 algorithm, an
approved cipher by the European
ESTREAM project. POLY1305 is
Wegman-Carter, one-time authenticator.
The combination provides a fast stream
cipher suitable for systems where a
hardware AES accelerator is not
available.
AES-128-CCM-8, AEAD TLS 1.2, This is the AES algorithm in the
AES-256-CCM-8 TLS 1.3 authenticated encryption CCM mode with
a truncated to 64-bit authentication
tag. This mode is for communication
with restricted systems.
CAMELLIA-128-GCM,AEAD TLS 1.2 This is the CAMELLIA algorithm in the
CAMELLIA-256-GCM authenticated encryption GCM mode.
AES-128-CBC, Legacy TLS 1.0, AES or RIJNDAEL is the block cipher
AES-256-CBC (block) TLS 1.1, algorithm that replaces the old DES
TLS 1.2 algorithm. It has 128 bits block size
and is used in CBC mode.
CAMELLIA-128-CBC,LegacyTLS 1.0, This is an 128-bit block cipher
CAMELLIA-256-CBC(block)TLS 1.1, developed by Mitsubishi and NTT. It is
TLS 1.2 one of the approved ciphers of the
European NESSIE and Japanese CRYPTREC
projects.
3DES-CBC Legacy TLS 1.0, This is the DES block cipher algorithm
(block) TLS 1.1, used with triple encryption (EDE). Has
TLS 1.2 64 bits block size and is used in CBC
mode.
ARCFOUR-128 Legacy TLS 1.0, ARCFOUR-128 is a compatible algorithm
(stream)TLS 1.1, with RSA’s RC4 algorithm, which is
TLS 1.2 considered to be a trade secret. It
is a considered to be broken, and is
only used for compatibility purposed.
For this reason it is not enabled by
default.
GOST28147-TC26Z-CNTLegacyTLS 1.2 This is a 64-bit block cipher GOST
(stream) 28147-89 with TC26Z S-Box working in
CNT mode. It is one of the approved
ciphers in Russia. It is not enabled
by default.
NULL Legacy TLS 1.0, NULL is the empty/identity cipher
(stream)TLS 1.1, which doesn’t encrypt any data. It
TLS 1.2 can be combined with data
authentication under TLS 1.2 or
earlier, but is only used transiently
under TLS 1.3 until encryption starts.
This cipher cannot be negotiated by
default (need to be explicitly
enabled) under TLS 1.2, and cannot be
negotiated at all under TLS 1.3. When
enabled, TLS 1.3 (or later) support
will be implicitly disabled.

TC26Z S-Box working in special MAC mode called
Imitovstavks. It is one of the approved MAC
algorithms in Russia. Outputs 32 bits of data.
It is not enabled by default.
MAC-AEAD This indicates that an authenticated encryption
algorithm, such as GCM, is in use.

3.3.2 Compression algorithms and the record layer
-------------------------------------------------
In early versions of TLS the record layer supported compression.
However, that proved to be problematic in many ways, and enabled several
attacks based on traffic analysis on the transported data. For that
newer versions of the protocol no longer offer compression, and GnuTLS
since 3.6.0 no longer implements any support for compression.
File: gnutls.info, Node: On Record Padding, Prev: Compression algorithms and the record layer, Up: The TLS record protocol
3.3.3 On record padding
-----------------------
The TLS 1.3 protocol allows for extra padding of records to prevent
statistical analysis based on the length of exchanged messages. GnuTLS
takes advantage of this feature, by allowing the user to specify the
amount of padding for a particular message. The simplest interface is
provided by *note gnutls_record_send2::, and is made available when
under TLS1.3; alternatively *note gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding::
can be queried.
Note that this interface is not sufficient to completely hide the length
of the data. The application code may reveal the data transferred by
leaking its data processing time, or by leaking the TLS1.3 record
processing time by GnuTLS. That is because under TLS1.3 the padding
removal time depends on the padding data for an efficient
implementation. To make that processing constant time the *note
gnutls_init:: function must be called with the flag
‘GNUTLS_SAFE_PADDING_CHECK’.
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE, size_t PAD, unsigned
FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: contains the data to send
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the data
PAD: padding to be added to the record
FLAGS: must be zero
This function is identical to ‘gnutls_record_send()’ except that it
takes an extra argument to specify padding to be added the record.
To determine the maximum size of padding, use
‘gnutls_record_get_max_size()’ and ‘gnutls_record_overhead_size()’
.
Note that in order for GnuTLS to provide constant time processing
of padding and data in TLS1.3, the flag ‘GNUTLS_SAFE_PADDING_CHECK’
must be used in ‘gnutls_init()’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code. The
number of bytes sent might be less than ‘data_size’ . The maximum
number of bytes this function can send in a single call depends on
the negotiated maximum record size.
*Since:* 3.6.3
Older GnuTLS versions provided an API suitable for cases where the
sender sends data that are always within a given range. That API is
still available, and consists of the following functions.
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION)’
‘SSIZE_T *note gnutls_record_send_range:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE, const gnutls_range_st * RANGE)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: The TLS Alert Protocol, Next: The TLS Handshake Protocol, Prev: The TLS record protocol, Up: Introduction to TLS
3.4 The TLS alert protocol
==========================
The alert protocol is there to allow signals to be sent between peers.
These signals are mostly used to inform the peer about the cause of a
protocol failure. Some of these signals are used internally by the
protocol and the application protocol does not have to cope with them
(e.g. ‘GNUTLS_A_CLOSE_NOTIFY’), and others refer to the application
protocol solely (e.g. ‘GNUTLS_A_USER_CANCELLED’). An alert signal
includes a level indication which may be either fatal or warning (under
TLS1.3 all alerts are fatal). Fatal alerts always terminate the current
connection, and prevent future re-negotiations using the current session
ID. All supported alert messages are summarized in the table below.
The alert messages are protected by the record protocol, thus the
information that is included does not leak. You must take extreme care
for the alert information not to leak to a possible attacker, via public
log files etc.

3.5 The TLS handshake protocol
==============================
The handshake protocol is responsible for the ciphersuite negotiation,
the initial key exchange, and the authentication of the two peers. This
is fully controlled by the application layer, thus your program has to
set up the required parameters. The main handshake function is *note
gnutls_handshake::. In the next paragraphs we elaborate on the
handshake protocol, i.e., the ciphersuite negotiation.

* Authentication:: TLS authentication.
* Client Authentication:: Requesting a certificate from the client.
* Resuming Sessions:: Reusing previously established keys.
File: gnutls.info, Node: TLS Cipher Suites, Next: Authentication, Up: The TLS Handshake Protocol
3.5.1 TLS ciphersuites
----------------------
The TLS cipher suites have slightly different meaning under different
protocols. Under TLS 1.3, a cipher suite indicates the symmetric
encryption algorithm in use, as well as the pseudo-random function (PRF)
used in the TLS session.
Under TLS 1.2 or early the handshake protocol negotiates cipher suites
of a special form illustrated by the ‘TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_CBC_SHA’
cipher suite name. A typical cipher suite contains these parameters:
• The key exchange algorithm. ‘DHE_RSA’ in the example.
• The Symmetric encryption algorithm and mode ‘3DES_CBC’ in this
example.
• The MAC(1) algorithm used for authentication. ‘MAC_SHA’ is used in
the above example.
The cipher suite negotiated in the handshake protocol will affect the
record protocol, by enabling encryption and data authentication. Note
that you should not over rely on TLS to negotiate the strongest
available cipher suite. Do not enable ciphers and algorithms that you
consider weak.
All the supported ciphersuites are listed in *note ciphersuites::.
---------- Footnotes ----------
(1) MAC stands for Message Authentication Code. It can be described
as a keyed hash algorithm. See RFC2104.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Authentication, Next: Client Authentication, Prev: TLS Cipher Suites, Up: The TLS Handshake Protocol
3.5.2 Authentication
--------------------
The key exchange algorithms of the TLS protocol offer authentication,
which is a prerequisite for a secure connection. The available
authentication methods in GnuTLS, under TLS 1.3 or earlier versions,
follow.
• Certificate authentication: Authenticated key exchange using public
key infrastructure and X.509 certificates.
• PSK authentication: Authenticated key exchange using a pre-shared
key.
Under TLS 1.2 or earlier versions, the following authentication methods
are also available.
• SRP authentication: Authenticated key exchange using a password.
• Anonymous authentication: Key exchange without peer authentication.

3.5.3 Client authentication
---------------------------
In the case of ciphersuites that use certificate authentication, the
authentication of the client is optional in TLS. A server may request a
certificate from the client using the *note
gnutls_certificate_server_set_request:: function. We elaborate in *note
Certificate credentials::.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Resuming Sessions, Prev: Client Authentication, Up: The TLS Handshake Protocol
3.5.4 Resuming sessions
-----------------------
The TLS handshake process performs expensive calculations and a busy
server might easily be put under load. To reduce the load, session
resumption may be used. This is a feature of the TLS protocol which
allows a client to connect to a server after a successful handshake,
without the expensive calculations. This is achieved by re-using the
previously established keys, meaning the server needs to store the state
of established connections (unless session tickets are used – *note
Session tickets::).
Session resumption is an integral part of GnuTLS, and *note Session
resumption::, *note ex-resume-client:: illustrate typical uses of it.

3.6 TLS extensions
==================
A number of extensions to the TLS protocol have been proposed mainly in
[*note TLSEXT::]. The extensions supported in GnuTLS are discussed in
the subsections that follow.
* Menu:
* Maximum fragment length negotiation::
* Server name indication::
* Session tickets::
* HeartBeat::
* Safe renegotiation::
* OCSP status request::
* SRTP::
* False Start::
* Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN)::

File: gnutls.info, Node: Maximum fragment length negotiation, Next: Server name indication, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.1 Maximum fragment length negotiation
-----------------------------------------
This extension allows a TLS implementation to negotiate a smaller value
for record packet maximum length. This extension may be useful to
clients with constrained capabilities. The functions shown below can be
used to control this extension.
‘SIZE_T *note gnutls_record_get_max_size:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION)’
‘SSIZE_T *note gnutls_record_set_max_size:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t SIZE)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: Server name indication, Next: Session tickets, Prev: Maximum fragment length negotiation, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.2 Server name indication
----------------------------
A common problem in HTTPS servers is the fact that the TLS protocol is
not aware of the hostname that a client connects to, when the handshake
procedure begins. For that reason the TLS server has no way to know
which certificate to send.
This extension solves that problem within the TLS protocol, and allows a
client to send the HTTP hostname before the handshake begins within the
first handshake packet. The functions *note gnutls_server_name_set::
and *note gnutls_server_name_get:: can be used to enable this extension,
or to retrieve the name sent by a client.
‘INT *note gnutls_server_name_set:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_server_name_type_t TYPE, const void * NAME, size_t NAME_LENGTH)’
‘INT *note gnutls_server_name_get:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void * DATA, size_t * DATA_LENGTH, unsigned int * TYPE, unsigned int INDX)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: Session tickets, Next: HeartBeat, Prev: Server name indication, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.3 Session tickets
---------------------
To resume a TLS session, the server normally stores session parameters.
This complicates deployment, and can be avoided by delegating the
storage to the client. Because session parameters are sensitive they
are encrypted and authenticated with a key only known to the server and
then sent to the client. The Session Tickets extension is described in
RFC 5077 [*note TLSTKT::].
A disadvantage of session tickets is that they eliminate the effects of
forward secrecy when a server uses the same key for long time. That is,
the secrecy of all sessions on a server using tickets depends on the
ticket key being kept secret. For that reason server keys should be
rotated and discarded regularly.
Since version 3.1.3 GnuTLS clients transparently support session
tickets, unless forward secrecy is explicitly requested (with the PFS
priority string).
Under TLS 1.3 session tickets are mandatory for session resumption, and
they do not share the forward secrecy concerns as with TLS 1.2 or
earlier.

3.6.4 HeartBeat
---------------
This is a TLS extension that allows to ping and receive confirmation
from the peer, and is described in [*note RFC6520::]. The extension is
disabled by default and *note gnutls_heartbeat_enable:: can be used to
enable it. A policy may be negotiated to only allow sending heartbeat
messages or sending and receiving. The current session policy can be
checked with *note gnutls_heartbeat_allowed::. The requests coming from
the peer result to ‘GNUTLS_E_HEARTBEAT_PING_RECEIVED’ being returned
from the receive function. Ping requests to peer can be send via *note
gnutls_heartbeat_ping::.
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_heartbeat_allowed:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int TYPE)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_heartbeat_enable:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_heartbeat_ping:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t DATA_SIZE, unsigned int MAX_TRIES, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_heartbeat_pong:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_heartbeat_set_timeouts:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int RETRANS_TIMEOUT, unsigned int TOTAL_TIMEOUT)’
‘UNSIGNED INT *note gnutls_heartbeat_get_timeout:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: Safe renegotiation, Next: OCSP status request, Prev: HeartBeat, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.5 Safe renegotiation
------------------------
TLS gives the option to two communicating parties to renegotiate and
update their security parameters. One useful example of this feature
was for a client to initially connect using anonymous negotiation to a
server, and the renegotiate using some authenticated ciphersuite. This
occurred to avoid having the client sending its credentials in the
clear.
However this renegotiation, as initially designed would not ensure that
the party one is renegotiating is the same as the one in the initial
negotiation. For example one server could forward all renegotiation
traffic to an other server who will see this traffic as an initial
negotiation attempt.
This might be seen as a valid design decision, but it seems it was not
widely known or understood, thus today some application protocols use
the TLS renegotiation feature in a manner that enables a malicious
server to insert content of his choice in the beginning of a TLS
session.
The most prominent vulnerability was with HTTPS. There servers request a
renegotiation to enforce an anonymous user to use a certificate in order
to access certain parts of a web site. The attack works by having the
attacker simulate a client and connect to a server, with server-only
authentication, and send some data intended to cause harm. The server
will then require renegotiation from him in order to perform the
request. When the proper client attempts to contact the server, the
attacker hijacks that connection and forwards traffic to the initial
server that requested renegotiation. The attacker will not be able to
read the data exchanged between the client and the server. However, the
server will (incorrectly) assume that the initial request sent by the
attacker was sent by the now authenticated client. The result is a
prefix plain-text injection attack.
The above is just one example. Other vulnerabilities exists that do not
rely on the TLS renegotiation to change the client’s authenticated
status (either TLS or application layer).
While fixing these application protocols and implementations would be
one natural reaction, an extension to TLS has been designed that
cryptographically binds together any renegotiated handshakes with the
initial negotiation. When the extension is used, the attack is detected
and the session can be terminated. The extension is specified in [*note
RFC5746::].
GnuTLS supports the safe renegotiation extension. The default behavior
is as follows. Clients will attempt to negotiate the safe renegotiation
extension when talking to servers. Servers will accept the extension
when presented by clients. Clients and servers will permit an initial
handshake to complete even when the other side does not support the safe
renegotiation extension. Clients and servers will refuse renegotiation
attempts when the extension has not been negotiated.
Note that permitting clients to connect to servers when the safe
renegotiation extension is not enabled, is open up for attacks.
Changing this default behavior would prevent interoperability against
the majority of deployed servers out there. We will reconsider this
default behavior in the future when more servers have been upgraded.
Note that it is easy to configure clients to always require the safe
renegotiation extension from servers.
To modify the default behavior, we have introduced some new priority
strings (see *note Priority Strings::). The ‘%UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION’
priority string permits (re-)handshakes even when the safe renegotiation
extension was not negotiated. The default behavior is
‘%PARTIAL_RENEGOTIATION’ that will prevent renegotiation with clients
and servers not supporting the extension. This is secure for servers
but leaves clients vulnerable to some attacks, but this is a trade-off
between security and compatibility with old servers. The
‘%SAFE_RENEGOTIATION’ priority string makes clients and servers require
the extension for every handshake. The latter is the most secure option
for clients, at the cost of not being able to connect to legacy servers.
Servers will also deny clients that do not support the extension from
connecting.
It is possible to disable use of the extension completely, in both
clients and servers, by using the ‘%DISABLE_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION’ priority
string however we strongly recommend you to only do this for debugging
and test purposes.
The default values if the flags above are not specified are:
‘Server:’
%PARTIAL_RENEGOTIATION
‘Client:’
%PARTIAL_RENEGOTIATION
For applications we have introduced a new API related to safe
renegotiation. The *note gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status:: function is
used to check if the extension has been negotiated on a session, and can
be used both by clients and servers.
File: gnutls.info, Node: OCSP status request, Next: SRTP, Prev: Safe renegotiation, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.6 OCSP status request
-------------------------
The Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) is a protocol that allows
the client to verify the server certificate for revocation without
messing with certificate revocation lists. Its drawback is that it
requires the client to connect to the server’s CA OCSP server and
request the status of the certificate. This extension however, enables
a TLS server to include its CA OCSP server response in the handshake.
That is an HTTPS server may periodically run ‘ocsptool’ (see *note
ocsptool Invocation::) to obtain its certificate revocation status and
serve it to the clients. That way a client avoids an additional
connection to the OCSP server.
See *note OCSP stapling:: for further information.
Since version 3.1.3 GnuTLS clients transparently support the certificate
status request.
File: gnutls.info, Node: SRTP, Next: False Start, Prev: OCSP status request, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.7 SRTP
----------
The TLS protocol was extended in [*note RFC5764::] to provide keying
material to the Secure RTP (SRTP) protocol. The SRTP protocol provides
an encapsulation of encrypted data that is optimized for voice data.
With the SRTP TLS extension two peers can negotiate keys using TLS or
DTLS and obtain keying material for use with SRTP. The available SRTP
profiles are listed below.
‘GNUTLS_SRTP_AES128_CM_HMAC_SHA1_80’
128 bit AES with a 80 bit HMAC-SHA1
‘GNUTLS_SRTP_AES128_CM_HMAC_SHA1_32’
128 bit AES with a 32 bit HMAC-SHA1
‘GNUTLS_SRTP_NULL_HMAC_SHA1_80’
NULL cipher with a 80 bit HMAC-SHA1
‘GNUTLS_SRTP_NULL_HMAC_SHA1_32’
NULL cipher with a 32 bit HMAC-SHA1
Figure 3.2: Supported SRTP profiles
To enable use the following functions.
‘INT *note gnutls_srtp_set_profile:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_srtp_profile_t PROFILE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_srtp_set_profile_direct:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * PROFILES, const char ** ERR_POS)’
To obtain the negotiated keys use the function below.
-- Function: int gnutls_srtp_get_keys (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void *
KEY_MATERIAL, unsigned int KEY_MATERIAL_SIZE, gnutls_datum_t *
CLIENT_KEY, gnutls_datum_t * CLIENT_SALT, gnutls_datum_t *
SERVER_KEY, gnutls_datum_t * SERVER_SALT)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
KEY_MATERIAL: Space to hold the generated key material
KEY_MATERIAL_SIZE: The maximum size of the key material
CLIENT_KEY: The master client write key, pointing inside the key
material
CLIENT_SALT: The master client write salt, pointing inside the key
material
SERVER_KEY: The master server write key, pointing inside the key
material
SERVER_SALT: The master server write salt, pointing inside the key
material
This is a helper function to generate the keying material for SRTP.
It requires the space of the key material to be pre-allocated
(should be at least 2x the maximum key size and salt size). The
‘client_key’ , ‘client_salt’ , ‘server_key’ and ‘server_salt’ are
convenience datums that point inside the key material. They may be
‘NULL’ .
*Returns:* On success the size of the key material is returned,
otherwise, ‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’ if the buffer given is
not sufficient, or a negative error code.
Since 3.1.4
Other helper functions are listed below.
‘INT *note gnutls_srtp_get_selected_profile:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_srtp_profile_t * PROFILE)’
‘CONST CHAR * *note gnutls_srtp_get_profile_name:: (gnutls_srtp_profile_t PROFILE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_srtp_get_profile_id:: (const char * NAME, gnutls_srtp_profile_t * PROFILE)’

3.6.8 False Start
-----------------
The TLS protocol was extended in [*note RFC7918::] to allow the client
to send data to server in a single round trip. This change however
operates on the borderline of the TLS protocol security guarantees and
should be used for the cases where the reduced latency outperforms the
risk of an adversary intercepting the transferred data. In GnuTLS
applications can use the GNUTLS_ENABLE_FALSE_START as option to *note
gnutls_init:: to request an early return of the *note gnutls_handshake::
function. After that early return the application is expected to
transfer any data to be piggybacked on the last handshake message.
After handshake’s early termination, the application is expected to
transmit data using *note gnutls_record_send::, and call *note
gnutls_record_recv:: on any received data as soon, to ensure that
handshake completes timely. That is, especially relevant for
applications which set an explicit time limit for the handshake process
via *note gnutls_handshake_set_timeout::.
Note however, that the API ensures that the early return will not happen
if the false start requirements are not satisfied. That is, on
ciphersuites which are not whitelisted for false start or on
insufficient key sizes, the handshake process will complete properly
(i.e., no early return). To verify that false start was used you may
use *note gnutls_session_get_flags:: and check for the
GNUTLS_SFLAGS_FALSE_START flag. For GnuTLS the false start is
whitelisted for the following key exchange methods (see [*note
RFC7918::] for rationale)
• DHE
• ECDHE
but only when the negotiated parameters exceed ‘GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_HIGH’
–see *note Table 6.7: tab:key-sizes, and when under (D)TLS 1.2 or later.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN), Next: Extensions and Supplemental Data, Prev: False Start, Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.9 Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN)
---------------------------------------------------
The TLS protocol was extended in ‘RFC7301’ to provide the application
layer a method of negotiating the application protocol version. This
allows for negotiation of the application protocol during the TLS
handshake, thus reducing round-trips. The application protocol is
described by an opaque string. To enable, use the following functions.
‘INT *note gnutls_alpn_set_protocols:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const gnutls_datum_t * PROTOCOLS, unsigned PROTOCOLS_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_alpn_get_selected_protocol:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_datum_t * PROTOCOL)’
Note that these functions are intended to be used with protocols that
are registered in the Application Layer Protocol Negotiation IANA
registry. While you can use them for other protocols (at the risk of
collisions), it is preferable to register them.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Extensions and Supplemental Data, Prev: Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN), Up: TLS Extensions
3.6.10 Extensions and Supplemental Data
---------------------------------------
It is possible to transfer supplemental data during the TLS handshake,
following [*note RFC4680::]. This is for "custom" protocol
modifications for applications which may want to transfer additional
data (e.g. additional authentication messages). Such an exchange
requires a custom extension to be registered. The provided API for this
functionality is low-level and described in *note TLS Hello Extension
Handling::.

3.7 How to use TLS in application protocols
===========================================
This chapter is intended to provide some hints on how to use TLS over
simple custom made application protocols. The discussion below mainly
refers to the TCP/IP transport layer but may be extended to other ones
too.
* Menu:
* Separate ports::
* Upward negotiation::
File: gnutls.info, Node: Separate ports, Next: Upward negotiation, Up: How to use TLS in application protocols
3.7.1 Separate ports
--------------------
Traditionally SSL was used in application protocols by assigning a new
port number for the secure services. By doing this two separate ports
were assigned, one for the non-secure sessions, and one for the secure
sessions. This method ensures that if a user requests a secure session
then the client will attempt to connect to the secure port and fail
otherwise. The only possible attack with this method is to perform a
denial of service attack. The most famous example of this method is
“HTTP over TLS” or HTTPS protocol [*note RFC2818::].
Despite its wide use, this method has several issues. This approach
starts the TLS Handshake procedure just after the client connects on the
—so called— secure port. That way the TLS protocol does not know
anything about the client, and popular methods like the host advertising
in HTTP do not work(1). There is no way for the client to say “I
connected to YYY server” before the Handshake starts, so the server
cannot possibly know which certificate to use.
Other than that it requires two separate ports to run a single service,
which is unnecessary complication. Due to the fact that there is a
limitation on the available privileged ports, this approach was soon
deprecated in favor of upward negotiation.

serverind::.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Upward negotiation, Prev: Separate ports, Up: How to use TLS in application protocols
3.7.2 Upward negotiation
------------------------
Other application protocols(1) use a different approach to enable the
secure layer. They use something often called as the “TLS upgrade”
method. This method is quite tricky but it is more flexible. The idea
is to extend the application protocol to have a “STARTTLS” request,
whose purpose it to start the TLS protocols just after the client
requests it. This approach does not require any extra port to be
reserved. There is even an extension to HTTP protocol to support this
method [*note RFC2817::].
The tricky part, in this method, is that the “STARTTLS” request is sent
in the clear, thus is vulnerable to modifications. A typical attack is
to modify the messages in a way that the client is fooled and thinks
that the server does not have the “STARTTLS” capability. See a typical
conversation of a hypothetical protocol:
(client connects to the server)
CLIENT: HELLO I’M MR. XXX
SERVER: NICE TO MEET YOU XXX
CLIENT: PLEASE START TLS
SERVER: OK
*** TLS STARTS
CLIENT: HERE ARE SOME CONFIDENTIAL DATA
And an example of a conversation where someone is acting in between:
(client connects to the server)
CLIENT: HELLO I’M MR. XXX
SERVER: NICE TO MEET YOU XXX
CLIENT: PLEASE START TLS
(here someone inserts this message)
SERVER: SORRY I DON’T HAVE THIS CAPABILITY
CLIENT: HERE ARE SOME CONFIDENTIAL DATA
As you can see above the client was fooled, and was naïve enough to send
the confidential data in the clear, despite the server telling the
client that it does not support “STARTTLS”.
How do we avoid the above attack? As you may have already noticed this
situation is easy to avoid. The client has to ask the user before it
connects whether the user requests TLS or not. If the user answered
that he certainly wants the secure layer the last conversation should
be:
(client connects to the server)
CLIENT: HELLO I’M MR. XXX
SERVER: NICE TO MEET YOU XXX
CLIENT: PLEASE START TLS
(here someone inserts this message)
SERVER: SORRY I DON’T HAVE THIS CAPABILITY
CLIENT: BYE
(the client notifies the user that the secure connection was not
possible)
This method, if implemented properly, is far better than the traditional
method, and the security properties remain the same, since only denial
of service is possible. The benefit is that the server may request
additional data before the TLS Handshake protocol starts, in order to
send the correct certificate, use the correct password file, or anything
else!

3.8 On SSL 2 and older protocols
================================
One of the initial decisions in the GnuTLS development was to implement
the known security protocols for the transport layer. Initially TLS 1.0
was implemented since it was the latest at that time, and was considered
to be the most advanced in security properties. Later the SSL 3.0
protocol was implemented since it is still the only protocol supported
by several servers and there are no serious security vulnerabilities
known.
One question that may arise is why we didn’t implement SSL 2.0 in the
library. There are several reasons, most important being that it has
serious security flaws, unacceptable for a modern security library.
Other than that, this protocol is barely used by anyone these days since
it has been deprecated since 1996. The security problems in SSL 2.0
include:
• Message integrity compromised. The SSLv2 message authentication
uses the MD5 function, and is insecure.
• Man-in-the-middle attack. There is no protection of the handshake
in SSLv2, which permits a man-in-the-middle attack.
• Truncation attack. SSLv2 relies on TCP FIN to close the session,
so the attacker can forge a TCP FIN, and the peer cannot tell if it
was a legitimate end of data or not.
• Weak message integrity for export ciphers. The cryptographic keys
in SSLv2 are used for both message authentication and encryption,
so if weak encryption schemes are negotiated (say 40-bit keys) the
message authentication code uses the same weak key, which isn’t
necessary.
Other protocols such as Microsoft’s PCT 1 and PCT 2 were not implemented
because they were also abandoned and deprecated by SSL 3.0 and later TLS
1.0.

4 Authentication methods
************************
The initial key exchange of the TLS protocol performs authentication of
the peers. In typical scenarios the server is authenticated to the
client, and optionally the client to the server.
While many associate TLS with X.509 certificates and public key
authentication, the protocol supports various authentication methods,
including pre-shared keys, and passwords. In this chapter a description
of the existing authentication methods is provided, as well as some
guidance on which use-cases each method can be used at.

4.1 Certificate authentication
==============================
The most known authentication method of TLS are certificates. The PKIX
[*note PKIX::] public key infrastructure is daily used by anyone using a
browser today. GnuTLS provides a simple API to verify the X.509
certificates as in [*note PKIX::].
The key exchange algorithms supported by certificate authentication are
shown in *note Table 4.1: tab:key-exchange.
Key exchange Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
RSA The RSA algorithm is used to encrypt a key and
send it to the peer. The certificate must allow
the key to be used for encryption.
DHE_RSA The RSA algorithm is used to sign ephemeral
Diffie-Hellman parameters which are sent to the
peer. The key in the certificate must allow the
key to be used for signing. Note that key
exchange algorithms which use ephemeral
Diffie-Hellman parameters, offer perfect forward
secrecy. That means that even if the private
key used for signing is compromised, it cannot
be used to reveal past session data.
ECDHE_RSA The RSA algorithm is used to sign ephemeral
elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman parameters which
are sent to the peer. The key in the
certificate must allow the key to be used for
signing. It also offers perfect forward
secrecy. That means that even if the private
key used for signing is compromised, it cannot
be used to reveal past session data.
DHE_DSS The DSA algorithm is used to sign ephemeral
Diffie-Hellman parameters which are sent to the
peer. The certificate must contain DSA
parameters to use this key exchange algorithm.
DSA is the algorithm of the Digital Signature
Standard (DSS).
ECDHE_ECDSA The Elliptic curve DSA algorithm is used to sign
ephemeral elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman
parameters which are sent to the peer. The
certificate must contain ECDSA parameters (i.e.,
EC and marked for signing) to use this key
exchange algorithm.

4.1.1 X.509 certificates
------------------------
The X.509 protocols rely on a hierarchical trust model. In this trust
model Certification Authorities (CAs) are used to certify entities.
Usually more than one certification authorities exist, and certification
authorities may certify other authorities to issue certificates as well,
following a hierarchical model.
[image src="gnutls-x509.png" ]
Figure 4.1: An example of the X.509 hierarchical trust model.
One needs to trust one or more CAs for his secure communications. In
that case only the certificates issued by the trusted authorities are
acceptable. The framework is illustrated on *note Figure 4.1: fig-x509.

4.1.1.1 X.509 certificate structure
...................................
An X.509 certificate usually contains information about the certificate
holder, the signer, a unique serial number, expiration dates and some
other fields [*note PKIX::] as shown in *note Table 4.2: tab:x509.
Field Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
version The field that indicates the version of the
certificate.
serialNumber This field holds a unique serial number per
certificate.
signature The issuing authority’s signature.
issuer Holds the issuer’s distinguished name.
validity The activation and expiration dates.
subject The subject’s distinguished name of the
certificate.
extensions The extensions are fields only present in
version 3 certificates.
Table 4.2: X.509 certificate fields.
The certificate’s _subject or issuer name_ is not just a single string.
It is a Distinguished name and in the ASN.1 notation is a sequence of
several object identifiers with their corresponding values. Some of
available OIDs to be used in an X.509 distinguished name are defined in
‘gnutls/x509.h’.
The _Version_ field in a certificate has values either 1 or 3 for
version 3 certificates. Version 1 certificates do not support the
extensions field so it is not possible to distinguish a CA from a
person, thus their usage should be avoided.
The _validity_ dates are there to indicate the date that the specific
certificate was activated and the date the certificate’s key would be
considered invalid.
In GnuTLS the X.509 certificate structures are handled using the
‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’ type and the corresponding private keys with the
‘gnutls_x509_privkey_t’ type. All the available functions for X.509
certificate handling have their prototypes in ‘gnutls/x509.h’. An
example program to demonstrate the X.509 parsing capabilities can be
found in *note ex-x509-info::.

‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t ** CERTS, unsigned int * SIZE, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, unsigned int FLAGS)’
In all cases after use a certificate must be deinitialized using *note
gnutls_x509_crt_deinit::. Note that although the functions above apply
to ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’ structure, similar functions exist for the CRL
structure ‘gnutls_x509_crl_t’.

4.1.1.3 X.509 certificate names
...............................
X.509 certificates allow for multiple names and types of names to be
specified. CA certificates often rely on X.509 distinguished names (see
*note X.509 distinguished names::) for unique identification, while
end-user and server certificates rely on the ’subject alternative
names’. The subject alternative names provide a typed name, e.g., a DNS
name, or an email address, which identifies the owner of the
certificate. The following functions provide access to that names.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name2:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, unsigned int SEQ, void * SAN, size_t * SAN_SIZE, unsigned int * SAN_TYPE, unsigned int * CRITICAL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t TYPE, const void * DATA, unsigned int DATA_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_subject_alt_names_init:: (gnutls_subject_alt_names_t * SANS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_subject_alt_names_get:: (gnutls_subject_alt_names_t SANS, unsigned int SEQ, unsigned int * SAN_TYPE, gnutls_datum_t * SAN, gnutls_datum_t * OTHERNAME_OID)’
‘INT *note gnutls_subject_alt_names_set:: (gnutls_subject_alt_names_t SANS, unsigned int SAN_TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t * SAN, const char * OTHERNAME_OID)’
Note however, that server certificates often used the Common Name (CN),
part of the certificate DistinguishedName to place a single DNS address.
That practice is discouraged (see [*note RFC6125::]), because only a
single address can be specified, and the CN field is free-form making
matching ambiguous.

4.1.1.4 X.509 distinguished names
.................................
The “subject” of an X.509 certificate is not described by a single name,
but rather with a distinguished name. This in X.509 terminology is a
list of strings each associated an object identifier. To make things
simple GnuTLS provides *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn2:: which follows the
rules in [*note RFC4514::] and returns a single string. Access to each
string by individual object identifiers can be accessed using *note
gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_by_oid::.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn2 (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT,
gnutls_datum_t * DN)
CERT: should contain a ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’ type
DN: a pointer to a structure to hold the name; must be freed using
‘gnutls_free()’
This function will allocate buffer and copy the name of the
Certificate. The name will be in the form "C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz"
as described in RFC4514. The output string will be ASCII or UTF-8
encoded, depending on the certificate data.
This function does not output a fully RFC4514 compliant string, if
that is required see ‘gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn3()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.10
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, char * BUF, size_t * BUF_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_by_oid:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const char * OID, unsigned INDX, unsigned int RAW_FLAG, void * BUF, size_t * BUF_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_dn_oid:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, unsigned INDX, void * OID, size_t * OID_SIZE)’
Similar functions exist to access the distinguished name of the issuer
of the certificate.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, char * BUF, size_t * BUF_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn2:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, gnutls_datum_t * DN)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn_by_oid:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const char * OID, unsigned INDX, unsigned int RAW_FLAG, void * BUF, size_t * BUF_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer_dn_oid:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, unsigned INDX, void * OID, size_t * OID_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, gnutls_x509_dn_t * DN)’
The more powerful *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject:: and *note
gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava:: provide efficient but low-level access to
the contents of the distinguished name structure.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, gnutls_x509_dn_t * DN)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_issuer:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, gnutls_x509_dn_t * DN)’
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_dn_get_rdn_ava (gnutls_x509_dn_t DN, int
IRDN, int IAVA, gnutls_x509_ava_st * AVA)
DN: a pointer to DN
IRDN: index of RDN
IAVA: index of AVA.
AVA: Pointer to structure which will hold output information.
Get pointers to data within the DN. The format of the ‘ava’
structure is shown below.
struct gnutls_x509_ava_st { gnutls_datum_t oid; gnutls_datum_t
value; unsigned long value_tag; };
The X.509 distinguished name is a sequence of sequences of strings
and this is what the ‘irdn’ and ‘iava’ indexes model.
Note that ‘ava’ will contain pointers into the ‘dn’ structure which
in turns points to the original certificate. Thus you should not
modify any data or deallocate any of those.
This is a low-level function that requires the caller to do the
value conversions when necessary (e.g. from UCS-2).
*Returns:* Returns 0 on success, or an error code.

4.1.1.5 X.509 extensions
........................
X.509 version 3 certificates include a list of extensions that can be
used to obtain additional information on the subject or the issuer of
the certificate. Those may be e-mail addresses, flags that indicate
whether the belongs to a CA etc. All the supported X.509 version 3
extensions are shown in *note Table 4.3: tab:x509-ext.
The certificate extensions access is split into two parts. The first
requires to retrieve the extension, and the second is the parsing part.
To enumerate and retrieve the DER-encoded extension data available in a
certificate the following two functions are available.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_info:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, unsigned INDX, void * OID, size_t * OID_SIZE, unsigned int * CRITICAL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_data2:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, unsigned INDX, gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_extension_by_oid2:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const char * OID, unsigned INDX, gnutls_datum_t * OUTPUT, unsigned int * CRITICAL)’
After a supported DER-encoded extension is retrieved it can be parsed
using the APIs in ‘x509-ext.h’. Complex extensions may require
initializing an intermediate structure that holds the parsed extension
data. Examples of simple parsing functions are shown below.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_ext_import_basic_constraints:: (const gnutls_datum_t * EXT, unsigned int * CA, int * PATHLEN)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_ext_export_basic_constraints:: (unsigned int CA, int PATHLEN, gnutls_datum_t * EXT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_ext_import_key_usage:: (const gnutls_datum_t * EXT, unsigned int * KEY_USAGE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_ext_export_key_usage:: (unsigned int USAGE, gnutls_datum_t * EXT)’
More complex extensions, such as Name Constraints, require an
intermediate structure, in that case ‘gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t’ to
be initialized in order to store the parsed extension data.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_ext_import_name_constraints:: (const gnutls_datum_t * EXT, gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_ext_export_name_constraints:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, gnutls_datum_t * EXT)’
After the name constraints are extracted in the structure, the following
functions can be used to access them.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_get_permitted:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, unsigned IDX, unsigned * TYPE, gnutls_datum_t * NAME)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_get_excluded:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, unsigned IDX, unsigned * TYPE, gnutls_datum_t * NAME)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_add_permitted:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t * NAME)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_add_excluded:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t * NAME)’
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_check:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t * NAME)’
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_check_crt:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC, gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t TYPE, gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT)’
Other utility functions are listed below.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_init:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t * NC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_x509_name_constraints_deinit:: (gnutls_x509_name_constraints_t NC)’
Similar functions exist for all of the other supported extensions,
listed in *note Table 4.3: tab:x509-ext.

4.1.1.6 Accessing public and private keys
.........................................
Each X.509 certificate contains a public key that corresponds to a
private key. To get a unique identifier of the public key the *note
gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id:: function is provided. To export the public
key or its parameters you may need to convert the X.509 structure to a
‘gnutls_pubkey_t’. See *note Abstract public keys:: for more
information.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_id (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT,
unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned char * OUTPUT_DATA, size_t *
OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE)
CRT: Holds the certificate
FLAGS: should be one of the flags from ‘gnutls_keyid_flags_t’
OUTPUT_DATA: will contain the key ID
OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE: holds the size of output_data (and will be
replaced by the actual size of parameters)
This function will return a unique ID that depends on the public
key parameters. This ID can be used in checking whether a
certificate corresponds to the given private key.
If the buffer provided is not long enough to hold the output, then
*output_data_size is updated and GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER will
be returned. The output will normally be a SHA-1 hash output,
which is 20 bytes.
*Returns:* In case of failure a negative error code will be
returned, and 0 on success.
The private key parameters may be directly accessed by using one of the
following functions.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_privkey_get_pk_algorithm2:: (gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY, unsigned int * BITS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_privkey_export_rsa_raw2:: (gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY, gnutls_datum_t * M, gnutls_datum_t * E, gnutls_datum_t * D, gnutls_datum_t * P, gnutls_datum_t * Q, gnutls_datum_t * U, gnutls_datum_t * E1, gnutls_datum_t * E2)’

4.1.1.7 Verifying X.509 certificate paths
.........................................
Verifying certificate paths is important in X.509 authentication. For
this purpose the following functions are provided.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_cas
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, const gnutls_x509_crt_t *
CLIST, unsigned CLIST_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS)
LIST: The list
CLIST: A list of CAs
CLIST_SIZE: The length of the CA list
FLAGS: flags from ‘gnutls_trust_list_flags_t’
This function will add the given certificate authorities to the
trusted list. The CAs in ‘clist’ must not be deinitialized during
the lifetime of ‘list’ .
If the flag ‘GNUTLS_TL_NO_DUPLICATES’ is specified, then this
function will ensure that no duplicates will be present in the
final trust list.
If the flag ‘GNUTLS_TL_NO_DUPLICATE_KEY’ is specified, then this
function will ensure that no certificates with the same key are
present in the final trust list.
If either ‘GNUTLS_TL_NO_DUPLICATE_KEY’ or ‘GNUTLS_TL_NO_DUPLICATES’
are given, ‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_deinit()’ must be called with
parameter ‘all’ being 1.
*Returns:* The number of added elements is returned; that includes
duplicate entries.
*Since:* 3.0.0
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const
void * NAME, size_t NAME_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS)
LIST: The list
CERT: A certificate
NAME: An identifier for the certificate
NAME_SIZE: The size of the identifier
FLAGS: should be 0.
This function will add the given certificate to the trusted list
and associate it with a name. The certificate will not be be used
for verification with ‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt()’ but
with ‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_named_crt()’ or
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2()’ - the latter only since
GnuTLS 3.4.0 and if a hostname is provided.
In principle this function can be used to set individual "server"
certificates that are trusted by the user for that specific server
but for no other purposes.
The certificate ‘cert’ must not be deinitialized during the
lifetime of the ‘list’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.0.0
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_crls
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, const gnutls_x509_crl_t *
CRL_LIST, unsigned CRL_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned int
VERIFICATION_FLAGS)
LIST: The list
CRL_LIST: A list of CRLs
CRL_SIZE: The length of the CRL list
FLAGS: flags from ‘gnutls_trust_list_flags_t’
VERIFICATION_FLAGS: gnutls_certificate_verify_flags if flags
specifies GNUTLS_TL_VERIFY_CRL
This function will add the given certificate revocation lists to
the trusted list. The CRLs in ‘crl_list’ must not be deinitialized
during the lifetime of ‘list’ .
This function must be called after
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_cas()’ to allow verifying the CRLs for
validity. If the flag ‘GNUTLS_TL_NO_DUPLICATES’ is given, then the
final CRL list will not contain duplicate entries.
If the flag ‘GNUTLS_TL_NO_DUPLICATES’ is given,
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_deinit()’ must be called with parameter
‘all’ being 1.
If flag ‘GNUTLS_TL_VERIFY_CRL’ is given the CRLs will be verified
before being added, and if verification fails, they will be
skipped.
*Returns:* The number of added elements is returned; that includes
duplicate entries.
*Since:* 3.0
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, gnutls_x509_crt_t * CERT_LIST,
unsigned int CERT_LIST_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned int
* VOUTPUT, gnutls_verify_output_function FUNC)
LIST: The list
CERT_LIST: is the certificate list to be verified
CERT_LIST_SIZE: is the certificate list size
FLAGS: Flags that may be used to change the verification algorithm.
Use OR of the gnutls_certificate_verify_flags enumerations.
VOUTPUT: will hold the certificate verification output.
FUNC: If non-null will be called on each chain element verification
with the output.
This function will try to verify the given certificate and return
its status. The ‘voutput’ parameter will hold an OR’ed sequence of
‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’ flags.
The details of the verification are the same as in
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.0
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, gnutls_x509_crt_t * CERT_LIST,
unsigned int CERT_LIST_SIZE, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * DATA,
unsigned int ELEMENTS, unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned int *
VOUTPUT, gnutls_verify_output_function FUNC)
LIST: The list
CERT_LIST: is the certificate list to be verified
CERT_LIST_SIZE: is the certificate list size
DATA: an array of typed data
ELEMENTS: the number of data elements
FLAGS: Flags that may be used to change the verification algorithm.
Use OR of the gnutls_certificate_verify_flags enumerations.
VOUTPUT: will hold the certificate verification output.
FUNC: If non-null will be called on each chain element verification
with the output.
This function will attempt to verify the given certificate chain
and return its status. The ‘voutput’ parameter will hold an OR’ed
sequence of ‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’ flags.
When a certificate chain of ‘cert_list_size’ with more than one
certificates is provided, the verification status will apply to the
first certificate in the chain that failed verification. The
verification process starts from the end of the chain (from CA to
end certificate). The first certificate in the chain must be the
end-certificate while the rest of the members may be sorted or not.
Additionally a certificate verification profile can be specified
from the ones in ‘gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t’ by
ORing the result of ‘GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS()’ to the
verification flags.
Additional verification parameters are possible via the ‘data’
types; the acceptable types are ‘GNUTLS_DT_DNS_HOSTNAME’ ,
‘GNUTLS_DT_IP_ADDRESS’ and ‘GNUTLS_DT_KEY_PURPOSE_OID’ . The
former accepts as data a null-terminated hostname, and the latter a
null-terminated object identifier (e.g., ‘GNUTLS_KP_TLS_WWW_SERVER’
). If a DNS hostname is provided then this function will compare
the hostname in the end certificate against the given. If names do
not match the ‘GNUTLS_CERT_UNEXPECTED_OWNER’ status flag will be
set. In addition it will consider certificates provided with
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt()’ .
If a key purpose OID is provided and the end-certificate contains
the extended key usage PKIX extension, it will be required to match
the provided OID or be marked for any purpose, otherwise
verification will fail with ‘GNUTLS_CERT_PURPOSE_MISMATCH’ status.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value. Note that verification failure
will not result to an error code, only ‘voutput’ will be updated.
*Since:* 3.3.8
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_named_crt
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const
void * NAME, size_t NAME_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned
int * VOUTPUT, gnutls_verify_output_function FUNC)
LIST: The list
CERT: is the certificate to be verified
NAME: is the certificate’s name
NAME_SIZE: is the certificate’s name size
FLAGS: Flags that may be used to change the verification algorithm.
Use OR of the gnutls_certificate_verify_flags enumerations.
VOUTPUT: will hold the certificate verification output.
FUNC: If non-null will be called on each chain element verification
with the output.
This function will try to find a certificate that is associated
with the provided name –see
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt()’ . If a match is found the
certificate is considered valid. In addition to that this function
will also check CRLs. The ‘voutput’ parameter will hold an OR’ed
sequence of ‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’ flags.
Additionally a certificate verification profile can be specified
from the ones in ‘gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t’ by
ORing the result of ‘GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS()’ to the
verification flags.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.0.0
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_trust_file
(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t LIST, const char * CA_FILE, const
char * CRL_FILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE, unsigned int
TL_FLAGS, unsigned int TL_VFLAGS)
LIST: The list
CA_FILE: A file containing a list of CAs (optional)
CRL_FILE: A file containing a list of CRLs (optional)
TYPE: The format of the certificates
TL_FLAGS: flags from ‘gnutls_trust_list_flags_t’
TL_VFLAGS: gnutls_certificate_verify_flags if flags specifies
GNUTLS_TL_VERIFY_CRL
This function will add the given certificate authorities to the
trusted list. PKCS ‘11’ URLs are also accepted, instead of files,
by this function. A PKCS ‘11’ URL implies a trust database (a
specially marked module in p11-kit); the URL "pkcs11:" implies all
trust databases in the system. Only a single URL specifying trust
databases can be set; they cannot be stacked with multiple calls.
*Returns:* The number of added elements is returned.

The verification function will verify a given certificate chain against
a list of certificate authorities and certificate revocation lists, and
output a bit-wise OR of elements of the ‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’
enumeration shown in *note Figure 4.2: gnutls_certificate_status_t. The
‘GNUTLS_CERT_INVALID’ flag is always set on a verification error and
more detailed flags will also be set when appropriate.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_INVALID’
The certificate is not signed by one of the known authorities or
the signature is invalid (deprecated by the flags
‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE’ and ‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNER_NOT_FOUND’
).
‘GNUTLS_CERT_REVOKED’
Certificate is revoked by its authority. In X.509 this will be set
only if CRLs are checked.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNER_NOT_FOUND’
The certificate’s issuer is not known. This is the case if the
issuer is not included in the trusted certificate list.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNER_NOT_CA’
The certificate’s signer was not a CA. This may happen if this was
a version 1 certificate, which is common with some CAs, or a
version 3 certificate without the basic constrains extension.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM’
The certificate was signed using an insecure algorithm such as MD2
or MD5. These algorithms have been broken and should not be
trusted.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_NOT_ACTIVATED’
The certificate is not yet activated.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_EXPIRED’
The certificate has expired.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNATURE_FAILURE’
The signature verification failed.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_REVOCATION_DATA_SUPERSEDED’
The revocation data are old and have been superseded.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_UNEXPECTED_OWNER’
The owner is not the expected one.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_REVOCATION_DATA_ISSUED_IN_FUTURE’
The revocation data have a future issue date.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNER_CONSTRAINTS_FAILURE’
The certificate’s signer constraints were violated.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_MISMATCH’
The certificate presented isn’t the expected one (TOFU)
‘GNUTLS_CERT_PURPOSE_MISMATCH’
The certificate or an intermediate does not match the intended
purpose (extended key usage).
‘GNUTLS_CERT_MISSING_OCSP_STATUS’
The certificate requires the server to send the certificate status,
but no status was received.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_INVALID_OCSP_STATUS’
The received OCSP status response is invalid.
‘GNUTLS_CERT_UNKNOWN_CRIT_EXTENSIONS’
The certificate has extensions marked as critical which are not
supported.
Figure 4.2: The ‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’ enumeration.
An example of certificate verification is shown in *note ex-verify2::.
It is also possible to have a set of certificates that are trusted for a
particular server but not to authorize other certificates. This purpose
is served by the functions *note gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt::
and *note gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_named_crt::.

4.1.1.8 Verifying a certificate in the context of TLS session
.............................................................
When operating in the context of a TLS session, the trusted certificate
authority list may also be set using:
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const char * CAFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_dir:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const char * CA_DIR, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char * CRLFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED)’
These functions allow the specification of the trusted certificate
authorities, either via a file, a directory or use the system-specified
certificate authorities. Unless the authorities are application
specific, it is generally recommended to use the system trust storage
(see *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust::).
Unlike the previous section it is not required to setup a trusted list,
and there are two approaches to verify the peer’s certificate and
identity. The recommended in GnuTLS 3.5.0 and later is via the *note
gnutls_session_set_verify_cert::, but for older GnuTLS versions you may
use an explicit callback set via *note
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function:: and then utilize *note
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3:: for verification. The reported
verification status is identical to the verification functions described
in the previous section.
Note that in certain cases it is required to check the marked purpose of
the end certificate (e.g. ‘GNUTLS_KP_TLS_WWW_SERVER’); in these cases
the more advanced *note gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2:: and *note
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers:: should be used instead.
There is also the possibility to pass some input to the verification
functions in the form of flags. For *note
gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2:: the flags are passed directly, but
for *note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3::, the flags are set using
*note gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags::. All the available flags
are part of the enumeration ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’ shown in
*note Figure 4.3: gnutls_certificate_verify_flags.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_CA_SIGN’
If set a signer does not have to be a certificate authority. This
flag should normally be disabled, unless you know what this means.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_IP_MATCHES’
When verifying a hostname prevent textual IP addresses from
matching IP addresses in the certificate. Treat the input only as
a DNS name.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_SAME’
If a certificate is not signed by anyone trusted but exists in the
trusted CA list do not treat it as trusted.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_ANY_X509_V1_CA_CRT’
Allow CA certificates that have version 1 (both root and
intermediate). This might be dangerous since those haven’t the
basicConstraints extension.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2’
Allow certificates to be signed using the broken MD2 algorithm.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5’
Allow certificates to be signed using the broken MD5 algorithm.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TIME_CHECKS’
Disable checking of activation and expiration validity periods of
certificate chains. Don’t set this unless you understand the
security implications.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_TRUSTED_TIME_CHECKS’
If set a signer in the trusted list is never checked for expiration
or activation.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT’
Do not allow trusted CA certificates that have version 1. This
option is to be used to deprecate all certificates of version 1.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_CRL_CHECKS’
Disable checking for validity using certificate revocation lists or
the available OCSP data.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_UNSORTED_CHAIN’
A certificate chain is tolerated if unsorted (the case with many
TLS servers out there). This is the default since GnuTLS 3.1.4.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_UNSORTED_CHAIN’
Do not tolerate an unsorted certificate chain.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_WILDCARDS’
When including a hostname check in the verification, do not
consider any wildcards.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_USE_TLS1_RSA’
This indicates that a (raw) RSA signature is provided as in the TLS
1.0 protocol. Not all functions accept this flag.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_IGNORE_UNKNOWN_CRIT_EXTENSIONS’
This signals the verification process, not to fail on unknown
critical extensions.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_WITH_SHA1’
Allow certificates to be signed using the broken SHA1 hash
algorithm.
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_RSA_PSS_FIXED_SALT_LENGTH’
Disallow RSA-PSS signatures made with mismatching salt length with
digest length, as mandated in RFC 8446 4.2.3.

4.1.1.9 Verifying a certificate using PKCS #11
..............................................
Some systems provide a system wide trusted certificate storage
accessible using the PKCS #11 API. That is, the trusted certificates are
queried and accessed using the PKCS #11 API, and trusted certificate
properties, such as purpose, are marked using attached extensions. One
example is the p11-kit trust module(1).
These special PKCS #11 modules can be used for GnuTLS certificate
verification if marked as trust policy modules, i.e., with
‘trust-policy: yes’ in the p11-kit module file. The way to use them is
by specifying to the file verification function (e.g., *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file::), a pkcs11 URL, or simply
‘pkcs11:’ to use all the marked with trust policy modules.
The trust modules of p11-kit assign a purpose to trusted authorities
using the extended key usage object identifiers. The common purposes
are shown in *note Table 4.4: tab:purposes. Note that typically
according to [*note RFC5280::] the extended key usage object identifiers
apply to end certificates. Their application to CA certificates is an
extension used by the trust modules.

setting a purpose, would operate as if ‘GNUTLS_KP_TLS_WWW_SERVER’ was
requested from the trusted authorities.

4.1.2 OpenPGP certificates
--------------------------
Previous versions of GnuTLS supported limited OpenPGP key
authentication. That functionality has been deprecated and is no longer
made available. The reason is that, supporting alternative
authentication methods, when X.509 and PKIX were new on the Internet and
not well established, seemed like a good idea, in today’s Internet X.509
is unquestionably the main container for certificates. As such
supporting more options with no clear use-cases, is a distraction that
consumes considerable resources for improving and testing the library.
For that we have decided to drop this functionality completely in 3.6.0.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Raw public-keys, Next: Advanced certificate verification, Prev: OpenPGP certificates, Up: Certificate authentication
4.1.3 Raw public-keys
---------------------
There are situations in which a rather large certificate / certificate
chain is undesirable or impractical. An example could be a resource
constrained sensor network in which you do want to use authentication of
and encryption between your devices but where your devices lack loads of
memory or processing power. Furthermore, there are situations in which
you don’t want to or can’t rely on a PKIX. TLS is, next to a PKIX
environment, also commonly used with self-signed certificates in smaller
deployments where the self-signed certificates are distributed to all
involved protocol endpoints out-of-band. This practice does, however,
still require the overhead of the certificate generation even though
none of the information found in the certificate is actually used.
With raw public-keys, only a subset of the information found in typical
certificates is utilized: namely, the SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure (in
ASN.1 format) of a PKIX certificate that carries the parameters
necessary to describe the public-key. Other parameters found in PKIX
certificates are omitted. By omitting various certificate-related
structures, the resulting raw public-key is kept fairly small in
comparison to the original certificate, and the code to process the keys
can be simpler.
It should be noted however, that the authenticity of these raw keys must
be verified by an out-of-band mechanism or something like TOFU.

4.1.4 Advanced certificate verification
---------------------------------------
The verification of X.509 certificates in the HTTPS and other Internet
protocols is typically done by loading a trusted list of commercial
Certificate Authorities (see *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust::), and using them as trusted
anchors. However, there are several examples (eg. the Diginotar
incident) where one of these authorities was compromised. This risk can
be mitigated by using in addition to CA certificate verification, other
verification methods. In this section we list the available in GnuTLS
methods.
* Menu:
* Verifying a certificate using trust on first use authentication::
* Verifying a certificate using DANE::
File: gnutls.info, Node: Verifying a certificate using trust on first use authentication, Next: Verifying a certificate using DANE, Up: Advanced certificate verification
4.1.4.1 Verifying a certificate using trust on first use authentication
.......................................................................
It is possible to use a trust on first use (TOFU) authentication method
in GnuTLS. That is the concept used by the SSH programs, where the
public key of the peer is not verified, or verified in an out-of-bound
way, but subsequent connections to the same peer require the public key
to remain the same. Such a system in combination with the typical CA
verification of a certificate, and OCSP revocation checks, can help to
provide multiple factor verification, where a single point of failure is
not enough to compromise the system. For example a server compromise
may be detected using OCSP, and a CA compromise can be detected using
the trust on first use method. Such a hybrid system with X.509 and
trust on first use authentication is shown in *note Client example with
SSH-style certificate verification::.
See *note Certificate verification:: on how to use the available
functionality.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Verifying a certificate using DANE, Prev: Verifying a certificate using trust on first use authentication, Up: Advanced certificate verification
4.1.4.2 Verifying a certificate using DANE (DNSSEC)
...................................................
The DANE protocol is a protocol that can be used to verify TLS
certificates using the DNS (or better DNSSEC) protocols. The DNS
security extensions (DNSSEC) provide an alternative public key
infrastructure to the commercial CAs that are typically used to sign TLS
certificates. The DANE protocol takes advantage of the DNSSEC
infrastructure to verify TLS certificates. This can be in addition to
the verification by CA infrastructure or may even replace it where
DNSSEC is fully deployed. Note however, that DNSSEC deployment is
fairly new and it would be better to use it as an additional
verification method rather than the only one.
The DANE functionality is provided by the ‘libgnutls-dane’ library that
is shipped with GnuTLS and the function prototypes are in
‘gnutls/dane.h’. See *note Certificate verification:: for information
on how to use the library.
Note however, that the DANE RFC mandates the verification methods one
should use in addition to the validation via DNSSEC TLSA entries.
GnuTLS doesn’t follow that RFC requirement, and the term DANE
verification in this manual refers to the TLSA entry verification. In
GnuTLS any other verification methods can be used (e.g., PKIX or TOFU)
on top of DANE.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Digital signatures, Prev: Advanced certificate verification, Up: Certificate authentication
4.1.5 Digital signatures
------------------------
In this section we will provide some information about digital
signatures, how they work, and give the rationale for disabling some of
the algorithms used.
Digital signatures work by using somebody’s secret key to sign some
arbitrary data. Then anybody else could use the public key of that
person to verify the signature. Since the data may be arbitrary it is
not suitable input to a cryptographic digital signature algorithm. For
this reason and also for performance cryptographic hash algorithms are
used to preprocess the input to the signature algorithm. This works as
long as it is difficult enough to generate two different messages with
the same hash algorithm output. In that case the same signature could
be used as a proof for both messages. Nobody wants to sign an innocent
message of donating 1 euro to Greenpeace and find out that they donated
1.000.000 euros to Bad Inc.
For a hash algorithm to be called cryptographic the following three
requirements must hold:
1. Preimage resistance. That means the algorithm must be one way and
given the output of the hash function H(x), it is impossible to
calculate x.
2. 2nd preimage resistance. That means that given a pair x,y with
y=H(x) it is impossible to calculate an x' such that y=H(x').
3. Collision resistance. That means that it is impossible to
calculate random x and x' such H(x')=H(x).
The last two requirements in the list are the most important in digital
signatures. These protect against somebody who would like to generate
two messages with the same hash output. When an algorithm is considered
broken usually it means that the Collision resistance of the algorithm
is less than brute force. Using the birthday paradox the brute force
attack takes 2^{((hash size) / 2)} operations. Today colliding
certificates using the MD5 hash algorithm have been generated as shown
in [*note WEGER::].
There has been cryptographic results for the SHA-1 hash algorithms as
well, although they are not yet critical. Before 2004, MD5 had a
presumed collision strength of 2^{64}, but it has been showed to have a
collision strength well under 2^{50}. As of November 2005, it is
believed that SHA-1’s collision strength is around 2^{63}. We consider
this sufficiently hard so that we still support SHA-1. We anticipate
that SHA-256/386/512 will be used in publicly-distributed certificates
in the future. When 2^{63} can be considered too weak compared to the
computer power available sometime in the future, SHA-1 will be disabled
as well. The collision attacks on SHA-1 may also get better, given the
new interest in tools for creating them.
4.1.5.1 Trading security for interoperability
.............................................
If you connect to a server and use GnuTLS’ functions to verify the
certificate chain, and get a ‘GNUTLS_CERT_INSECURE_ALGORITHM’ validation
error (see *note Verifying X.509 certificate paths::), it means that
somewhere in the certificate chain there is a certificate signed using
‘RSA-MD2’ or ‘RSA-MD5’. These two digital signature algorithms are
considered broken, so GnuTLS fails verifying the certificate. In some
situations, it may be useful to be able to verify the certificate chain
anyway, assuming an attacker did not utilize the fact that these
signatures algorithms are broken. This section will give help on how to
achieve that.
It is important to know that you do not have to enable any of the flags
discussed here to be able to use trusted root CA certificates
self-signed using ‘RSA-MD2’ or ‘RSA-MD5’. The certificates in the
trusted list are considered trusted irrespective of the signature.
If you are using *note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3:: to verify the
certificate chain, you can call *note
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags:: with the flags:
• ‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD2’
• ‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5’
• ‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_WITH_SHA1’
• ‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_BROKEN’
as in the following example:
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags (x509cred,
GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5);
This will signal the verifier algorithm to enable ‘RSA-MD5’ when
verifying the certificates.
If you are using *note gnutls_x509_crt_verify:: or *note
gnutls_x509_crt_list_verify::, you can pass the
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5’ parameter directly in the ‘flags’
parameter.
If you are using these flags, it may also be a good idea to warn the
user when verification failure occur for this reason. The simplest is
to not use the flags by default, and only fall back to using them after
warning the user. If you wish to inspect the certificate chain
yourself, you can use *note gnutls_certificate_get_peers:: to extract
the raw server’s certificate chain, *note gnutls_x509_crt_list_import::
to parse each of the certificates, and then *note
gnutls_x509_crt_get_signature_algorithm:: to find out the signing
algorithm used for each certificate. If any of the intermediary
certificates are using ‘GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_MD2’ or ‘GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_MD5’,
you could present a warning.

4.2.1 PKCS #10 certificate requests
-----------------------------------
A certificate request is a structure, which contain information about an
applicant of a certificate service. It typically contains a public key,
a distinguished name and secondary data such as a challenge password.
GnuTLS supports the requests defined in PKCS #10 [*note RFC2986::].
Other formats of certificate requests are not currently supported by
GnuTLS.
A certificate request can be generated by associating it with a private
key, setting the subject’s information and finally self signing it. The
last step ensures that the requester is in possession of the private
key.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_version:: (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ, unsigned int VERSION)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_dn:: (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ, const char * DN, const char ** ERR)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_dn_by_oid:: (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ, const char * OID, unsigned int RAW_FLAG, const void * DATA, unsigned int SIZEOF_DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_usage:: (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ, unsigned int USAGE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_key_purpose_oid:: (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ, const void * OID, unsigned int CRITICAL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_basic_constraints:: (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ, unsigned int CA, int PATHLENCONSTRAINT)’
The *note gnutls_x509_crq_set_key:: and *note gnutls_x509_crq_sign2::
functions associate the request with a private key and sign it. If a
request is to be signed with a key residing in a PKCS #11 token it is
recommended to use the signing functions shown in *note Abstract key
types::.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crq_set_key (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ,
gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY)
CRQ: should contain a ‘gnutls_x509_crq_t’ type
KEY: holds a private key
This function will set the public parameters from the given private
key to the request.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crq_sign2 (gnutls_x509_crq_t CRQ,
gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t DIG,
unsigned int FLAGS)
CRQ: should contain a ‘gnutls_x509_crq_t’ type
KEY: holds a private key
DIG: The message digest to use, i.e., ‘GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256’
FLAGS: must be 0
This function will sign the certificate request with a private key.
This must be the same key as the one used in
‘gnutls_x509_crt_set_key()’ since a certificate request is self
signed.
This must be the last step in a certificate request generation
since all the previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed request
will not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification),
until it is exported an re-imported.
After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of ‘dig’ may be ‘GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN’ ,
and in that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm
will be selected.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code. ‘GNUTLS_E_ASN1_VALUE_NOT_FOUND’ is returned if you
didn’t set all information in the certificate request (e.g., the
version using ‘gnutls_x509_crq_set_version()’ ).
The following example is about generating a certificate request, and a
private key. A certificate request can be later be processed by a CA
which should return a signed certificate.

4.2.2 PKIX certificate revocation lists
---------------------------------------
A certificate revocation list (CRL) is a structure issued by an
authority periodically containing a list of revoked certificates serial
numbers. The CRL structure is signed with the issuing authorities’
keys. A typical CRL contains the fields as shown in *note Table 4.5:
tab:crl. Certificate revocation lists are used to complement the
expiration date of a certificate, in order to account for other reasons
of revocation, such as compromised keys, etc.
Each CRL is valid for limited amount of time and is required to provide,
except for the current issuing time, also the issuing time of the next
update.
Field Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
version The field that indicates the version of the CRL
structure.
signature A signature by the issuing authority.
issuer Holds the issuer’s distinguished name.
thisUpdate The issuing time of the revocation list.
nextUpdate The issuing time of the revocation list that
will update that one.
revokedCertificatesList of revoked certificates serial numbers.
extensions Optional CRL structure extensions.
Table 4.5: Certificate revocation list fields.
The basic CRL structure functions follow.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_init:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t * CRL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_import:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_export:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, void * OUTPUT_DATA, size_t * OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_export:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, void * OUTPUT_DATA, size_t * OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE)’
Reading a CRL
.............
The most important function that extracts the certificate revocation
information from a CRL is *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_crt_serial::. Other
functions that return other fields of the CRL structure are also
provided.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crl_get_crt_serial (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL,
unsigned INDX, unsigned char * SERIAL, size_t * SERIAL_SIZE,
time_t * T)
CRL: should contain a ‘gnutls_x509_crl_t’ type
INDX: the index of the certificate to extract (starting from 0)
SERIAL: where the serial number will be copied
SERIAL_SIZE: initially holds the size of serial
T: if non null, will hold the time this certificate was revoked
This function will retrieve the serial number of the specified, by
the index, revoked certificate.
Note that this function will have performance issues in large
sequences of revoked certificates. In that case use
‘gnutls_x509_crl_iter_crt_serial()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_version:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_issuer_dn:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, char * BUF, size_t * SIZEOF_BUF)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_issuer_dn2:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, gnutls_datum_t * DN)’
‘TIME_T *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_this_update:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL)’
‘TIME_T *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_next_update:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_get_crt_count:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL)’
Generation of a CRL
...................
The following functions can be used to generate a CRL.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_set_version:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, unsigned int VERSION)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_set_crt_serial:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, const void * SERIAL, size_t SERIAL_SIZE, time_t REVOCATION_TIME)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_set_crt:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, time_t REVOCATION_TIME)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_set_next_update:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, time_t EXP_TIME)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_set_this_update:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, time_t ACT_TIME)’
The *note gnutls_x509_crl_sign2:: and *note
gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign:: functions sign the revocation list with a
private key. The latter function can be used to sign with a key
residing in a PKCS #11 token.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crl_sign2 (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL,
gnutls_x509_crt_t ISSUER, gnutls_x509_privkey_t ISSUER_KEY,
gnutls_digest_algorithm_t DIG, unsigned int FLAGS)
CRL: should contain a gnutls_x509_crl_t type
ISSUER: is the certificate of the certificate issuer
ISSUER_KEY: holds the issuer’s private key
DIG: The message digest to use. GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256 is the safe
choice unless you know what you’re doing.
FLAGS: must be 0
This function will sign the CRL with the issuer’s private key, and
will copy the issuer’s information into the CRL.
This must be the last step in a certificate CRL since all the
previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed CRL
will not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification),
until it is exported an re-imported.
After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of ‘dig’ may be ‘GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN’ ,
and in that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm
will be selected.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crl_privkey_sign (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL,
gnutls_x509_crt_t ISSUER, gnutls_privkey_t ISSUER_KEY,
gnutls_digest_algorithm_t DIG, unsigned int FLAGS)
CRL: should contain a gnutls_x509_crl_t type
ISSUER: is the certificate of the certificate issuer
ISSUER_KEY: holds the issuer’s private key
DIG: The message digest to use. GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256 is the safe
choice unless you know what you’re doing.
FLAGS: must be 0
This function will sign the CRL with the issuer’s private key, and
will copy the issuer’s information into the CRL.
This must be the last step in a certificate CRL since all the
previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed CRL

*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
Since 2.12.0
Few extensions on the CRL structure are supported, including the CRL
number extension and the authority key identifier.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crl_set_number:: (gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL, const void * NR, size_t NR_SIZE)’

4.2.3 OCSP certificate status checking
--------------------------------------
Certificates may be revoked before their expiration time has been
reached. There are several reasons for revoking certificates, but a
typical situation is when the private key associated with a certificate
has been compromised. Traditionally, Certificate Revocation Lists
(CRLs) have been used by application to implement revocation checking,
however, several problems with CRLs have been identified [*note
RIVESTCRL::].
The Online Certificate Status Protocol, or OCSP [*note RFC2560::], is a
widely implemented protocol which performs certificate revocation status
checking. An application that wish to verify the identity of a peer
will verify the certificate against a set of trusted certificates and
then check whether the certificate is listed in a CRL and/or perform an
OCSP check for the certificate.
Applications are typically expected to contact the OCSP server in order
to request the certificate validity status. The OCSP server replies
with an OCSP response. This section describes this online communication
(which can be avoided when using OCSP stapled responses, for that, see
*note OCSP stapling::).
Before performing the OCSP query, the application will need to figure
out the address of the OCSP server. The OCSP server address can be
provided by the local user in manual configuration or may be stored in
the certificate that is being checked. When stored in a certificate the
OCSP server is in the extension field called the Authority Information
Access (AIA). The following function extracts this information from a
certificate.
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_get_authority_info_access:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, unsigned int SEQ, int WHAT, gnutls_datum_t * DATA, unsigned int * CRITICAL)’
There are several functions in GnuTLS for creating and manipulating OCSP
requests and responses. The general idea is that a client application
creates an OCSP request object, stores some information about the
certificate to check in the request, and then exports the request in DER
format. The request will then need to be sent to the OCSP responder,
which needs to be done by the application (GnuTLS does not send and
receive OCSP packets). Normally an OCSP response is received that the
application will need to import into an OCSP response object. The
digital signature in the OCSP response needs to be verified against a
set of trust anchors before the information in the response can be
trusted.
The ASN.1 structure of OCSP requests are briefly as follows. It is
useful to review the structures to get an understanding of which fields
are modified by GnuTLS functions.
OCSPRequest ::= SEQUENCE {
tbsRequest TBSRequest,
optionalSignature [0] EXPLICIT Signature OPTIONAL }
TBSRequest ::= SEQUENCE {
version [0] EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,
requestorName [1] EXPLICIT GeneralName OPTIONAL,
requestList SEQUENCE OF Request,
requestExtensions [2] EXPLICIT Extensions OPTIONAL }
Request ::= SEQUENCE {
reqCert CertID,
singleRequestExtensions [0] EXPLICIT Extensions OPTIONAL }
CertID ::= SEQUENCE {
hashAlgorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
issuerNameHash OCTET STRING, -- Hash of Issuer's DN
issuerKeyHash OCTET STRING, -- Hash of Issuers public key
serialNumber CertificateSerialNumber }
The basic functions to initialize, import, export and deallocate OCSP
requests are the following.
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_init:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t * REQ)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_ocsp_req_deinit:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_import:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_export:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_const_t REQ, gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_print:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_const_t REQ, gnutls_ocsp_print_formats_t FORMAT, gnutls_datum_t * OUT)’
To generate an OCSP request the issuer name hash, issuer key hash, and
the checked certificate’s serial number are required. There are two
interfaces available for setting those in an OCSP request. The is a
low-level function when you have the issuer name hash, issuer key hash,
and certificate serial number in binary form. The second is more useful
if you have the certificate (and its issuer) in a ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’
type. There is also a function to extract this information from
existing an OCSP request.
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_add_cert_id:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t DIGEST, const gnutls_datum_t * ISSUER_NAME_HASH, const gnutls_datum_t * ISSUER_KEY_HASH, const gnutls_datum_t * SERIAL_NUMBER)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_add_cert:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t DIGEST, gnutls_x509_crt_t ISSUER, gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_get_cert_id:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_const_t REQ, unsigned INDX, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * DIGEST, gnutls_datum_t * ISSUER_NAME_HASH, gnutls_datum_t * ISSUER_KEY_HASH, gnutls_datum_t * SERIAL_NUMBER)’
Each OCSP request may contain a number of extensions. Extensions are
identified by an Object Identifier (OID) and an opaque data buffer whose
syntax and semantics is implied by the OID. You can extract or set those
extensions using the following functions.
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_get_extension:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_const_t REQ, unsigned INDX, gnutls_datum_t * OID, unsigned int * CRITICAL, gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_set_extension:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ, const char * OID, unsigned int CRITICAL, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
A common OCSP Request extension is the nonce extension (OID
1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.1.2), which is used to avoid replay attacks of earlier
recorded OCSP responses. The nonce extension carries a value that is
intended to be sufficiently random and unique so that an attacker will
not be able to give a stale response for the same nonce.
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_get_nonce:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_const_t REQ, unsigned int * CRITICAL, gnutls_datum_t * NONCE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_set_nonce:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ, unsigned int CRITICAL, const gnutls_datum_t * NONCE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_req_randomize_nonce:: (gnutls_ocsp_req_t REQ)’
The OCSP response structures is a complex structure. A simplified
overview of it is in *note Table 4.6: tab:ocsp-response. Note that a
response may contain information on multiple certificates.
Field Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
version The OCSP response version number (typically 1).
responder ID An identifier of the responder (DN name or a
hash of its key).

that will update that one.
Revoked certificates

serial
revocationTime The time the certificate was revoked.
revocationReasonThe reason the certificate was revoked.
Table 4.6: The most important OCSP response fields.
We provide basic functions for initialization, importing, exporting and
deallocating OCSP responses.
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_resp_init:: (gnutls_ocsp_resp_t * RESP)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_ocsp_resp_deinit:: (gnutls_ocsp_resp_t RESP)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_resp_import:: (gnutls_ocsp_resp_t RESP, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’

‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_resp_print:: (gnutls_ocsp_resp_const_t RESP, gnutls_ocsp_print_formats_t FORMAT, gnutls_datum_t * OUT)’
The utility function that extracts the revocation as well as other
information from a response is shown below.
-- Function: int gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_single (gnutls_ocsp_resp_const_t
RESP, unsigned INDX, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * DIGEST,
gnutls_datum_t * ISSUER_NAME_HASH, gnutls_datum_t *

* CERT_STATUS, time_t * THIS_UPDATE, time_t * NEXT_UPDATE,
time_t * REVOCATION_TIME, unsigned int * REVOCATION_REASON)
RESP: should contain a ‘gnutls_ocsp_resp_t’ type
INDX: Specifies response number to get. Use (0) to get the first
one.
DIGEST: output variable with ‘gnutls_digest_algorithm_t’ hash
algorithm
ISSUER_NAME_HASH: output buffer with hash of issuer’s DN
ISSUER_KEY_HASH: output buffer with hash of issuer’s public key
SERIAL_NUMBER: output buffer with serial number of certificate to
check
CERT_STATUS: a certificate status, a ‘gnutls_ocsp_cert_status_t’
enum.
THIS_UPDATE: time at which the status is known to be correct.
NEXT_UPDATE: when newer information will be available, or
(time_t)-1 if unspecified
REVOCATION_TIME: when ‘cert_status’ is ‘GNUTLS_OCSP_CERT_REVOKED’ ,
holds time of revocation.
REVOCATION_REASON: revocation reason, a ‘gnutls_x509_crl_reason_t’
enum.
This function will return the certificate information of the ‘indx’
’ed response in the Basic OCSP Response ‘resp’ . The information
returned corresponds to the OCSP SingleResponse structure except
the final singleExtensions.
Each of the pointers to output variables may be NULL to indicate
that the caller is not interested in that value.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned. If you have reached
the last CertID available ‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’
will be returned.
The possible revocation reasons available in an OCSP response are shown
below.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_UNSPECIFIED’
Unspecified reason.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_KEYCOMPROMISE’
Private key compromised.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_CACOMPROMISE’
CA compromised.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_AFFILIATIONCHANGED’
Affiliation has changed.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_SUPERSEDED’
Certificate superseded.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_CESSATIONOFOPERATION’
Operation has ceased.
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRLREASON_CERTIFICATEHOLD’

Note, that the OCSP response needs to be verified against some set of
trust anchors before it can be relied upon. It is also important to
check whether the received OCSP response corresponds to the certificate
being checked.

4.2.4 OCSP stapling
-------------------
To avoid applications contacting the OCSP server directly, TLS servers
can provide a "stapled" OCSP response in the TLS handshake. That way
the client application needs to do nothing more. GnuTLS will
automatically consider the stapled OCSP response during the TLS
certificate verification (see *note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2::).
To disable the automatic OCSP verification the flag
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DISABLE_CRL_CHECKS’ should be specified to *note
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags::.
Since GnuTLS 3.5.1 the client certificate verification will consider the
[*note RFC7633::] OCSP-Must-staple certificate extension, and will
consider it while checking for stapled OCSP responses. If the extension
is present and no OCSP staple is found, the certificate verification
will fail and the status code ‘GNUTLS_CERT_MISSING_OCSP_STATUS’ will
returned from the verification function.
Under TLS 1.2 only one stapled response can be sent by a server, the
OCSP response associated with the end-certificate. Under TLS 1.3 a
server can send multiple OCSP responses, typically one for each
certificate in the certificate chain. The following functions can be
used by a client application to retrieve the OCSP responses as sent by
the server.
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_status_request_get:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_datum_t * RESPONSE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_ocsp_status_request_get2:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned IDX, gnutls_datum_t * RESPONSE)’
GnuTLS servers can provide OCSP responses to their clients using the
following functions.
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function3:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function3 * FUNC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file2:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, const char * RESPONSE_FILE, unsigned IDX, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FMT)’
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_ocsp_status_request_is_checked:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int FLAGS)’
A server is expected to provide the relevant certificate’s OCSP
responses using *note
gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file2::, and ensure a
periodic reload/renew of the credentials. An estimation of the OCSP
responses expiration can be obtained using the *note
gnutls_certificate_get_ocsp_expiration:: function.
-- Function: time_t gnutls_certificate_get_ocsp_expiration
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, unsigned IDX, int OIDX,
unsigned FLAGS)
SC: is a credentials structure.
IDX: is a certificate chain index as returned by
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ and friends
OIDX: is an OCSP response index
FLAGS: should be zero
This function returns the validity of the loaded OCSP responses, to
provide information on when to reload/refresh them.
Note that the credentials structure should be read-only when in
use, thus when reloading, either the credentials structure must not
be in use by any sessions, or a new credentials structure should be
allocated for new sessions.
When ‘oidx’ is (-1) then the minimum refresh time for all responses
is returned. Otherwise the index specifies the response
corresponding to the ‘odix’ certificate in the certificate chain.
*Returns:* On success, the expiration time of the OCSP response.
Otherwise (time_t)(-1) on error, or (time_t)-2 on out of bounds.
*Since:* 3.6.3
Prior to GnuTLS 3.6.4, the functions *note
gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_function2:: *note
gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file:: were provided to set
OCSP responses. These functions are still functional, but cannot be
used to set multiple OCSP responses as allowed by TLS1.3.
The responses can be updated periodically using the ’ocsptool’ command
(see also *note ocsptool Invocation::).
ocsptool --ask --load-cert server_cert.pem --load-issuer the_issuer.pem
--load-signer the_issuer.pem --outfile ocsp.resp
In order to allow multiple OCSP responses to be concatenated, GnuTLS
supports PEM-encoded OCSP responses. These can be generated using
’ocsptool’ with the ’–no-outder’ parameter.

4.2.5 Managing encrypted keys
-----------------------------
Transferring or storing private keys in plain may not be a good idea,
since any compromise is irreparable. Storing the keys in hardware
security modules (see *note Smart cards and HSMs::) could solve the
storage problem but it is not always practical or efficient enough.
This section describes ways to store and transfer encrypted private
keys.
There are methods for key encryption, namely the PKCS #8, PKCS #12 and
OpenSSL’s custom encrypted private key formats. The PKCS #8 and the
OpenSSL’s method allow encryption of the private key, while the PKCS #12
method allows, in addition, the bundling of accompanying data into the
structure. That is typically the corresponding certificate, as well as
a trusted CA certificate.
High level functionality
........................
Generic and higher level private key import functions are available,
that import plain or encrypted keys and will auto-detect the encrypted
key format.
-- Function: int gnutls_privkey_import_x509_raw (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY,

PKEY: The private key
DATA: The private key data to be imported
FORMAT: The format of the private key
PASSWORD: A password (optional)
FLAGS: an ORed sequence of gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t
This function will import the given private key to the abstract
‘gnutls_privkey_t’ type.
The supported formats are basic unencrypted key, PKCS8, PKCS12,
TSS2, and the openssl format.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.0

KEY: The data to store the parsed key
DATA: The DER or PEM encoded key.
FORMAT: One of DER or PEM
PASSWORD: A password (optional)
FLAGS: an ORed sequence of gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t
This function will import the given DER or PEM encoded key, to the
native ‘gnutls_x509_privkey_t’ format, irrespective of the input
format. The input format is auto-detected.
The supported formats are basic unencrypted key, PKCS8, PKCS12, and
the openssl format.
If the provided key is encrypted but no password was given, then
‘GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED’ is returned. Since GnuTLS 3.4.0 this
function will utilize the PIN callbacks if any.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
Any keys imported using those functions can be imported to a certificate
credentials structure using *note gnutls_certificate_set_key::, or
alternatively they can be directly imported using *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2::.
PKCS #8 structures
..................
PKCS #8 keys can be imported and exported as normal private keys using
the functions below. An addition to the normal import functions, are a
password and a flags argument. The flags can be any element of the
‘gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t’ enumeration. Note however, that GnuTLS
only supports the PKCS #5 PBES2 encryption scheme. Keys encrypted with
the obsolete PBES1 scheme cannot be decrypted.

PKCS #12 structures
...................
A PKCS #12 structure [*note PKCS12::] usually contains a user’s private
keys and certificates. It is commonly used in browsers to export and
import the user’s identities. A file containing such a key can be
directly imported to a certificate credentials structure by using *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file::.
In GnuTLS the PKCS #12 structures are handled using the
‘gnutls_pkcs12_t’ type. This is an abstract type that may hold several
‘gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t’ types. The bag types are the holders of the
actual data, which may be certificates, private keys or encrypted data.
A bag of type encrypted should be decrypted in order for its data to be
accessed.
To reduce the complexity in parsing the structures the simple helper
function *note gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse:: is provided. For more
advanced uses, manual parsing of the structure is required using the
functions below.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_get_bag:: (gnutls_pkcs12_t PKCS12, int INDX, gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_verify_mac:: (gnutls_pkcs12_t PKCS12, const char * PASS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_decrypt:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, const char * PASS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_get_count:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG)’
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs12_simple_parse (gnutls_pkcs12_t P12, const
char * PASSWORD, gnutls_x509_privkey_t * KEY,
gnutls_x509_crt_t ** CHAIN, unsigned int * CHAIN_LEN,
gnutls_x509_crt_t ** EXTRA_CERTS, unsigned int *
EXTRA_CERTS_LEN, gnutls_x509_crl_t * CRL, unsigned int FLAGS)
P12: A pkcs12 type
PASSWORD: optional password used to decrypt the structure, bags and
keys.
KEY: a structure to store the parsed private key.
CHAIN: the corresponding to key certificate chain (may be ‘NULL’ )
CHAIN_LEN: will be updated with the number of additional (may be
‘NULL’ )
EXTRA_CERTS: optional pointer to receive an array of additional
certificates found in the PKCS12 structure (may be ‘NULL’ ).
EXTRA_CERTS_LEN: will be updated with the number of additional
certs (may be ‘NULL’ ).
CRL: an optional structure to store the parsed CRL (may be ‘NULL’
).
FLAGS: should be zero or one of GNUTLS_PKCS12_SP_*
This function parses a PKCS12 structure in ‘pkcs12’ and extracts
the private key, the corresponding certificate chain, any
additional certificates and a CRL. The structures in ‘key’ ,
‘chain’ ‘crl’ , and ‘extra_certs’ must not be initialized.
The ‘extra_certs’ and ‘extra_certs_len’ parameters are optional and
both may be set to ‘NULL’ . If either is non-‘NULL’ , then both
must be set. The value for ‘extra_certs’ is allocated using
‘gnutls_malloc()’ .
Encrypted PKCS12 bags and PKCS8 private keys are supported, but
only with password based security and the same password for all
operations.
Note that a PKCS12 structure may contain many keys and/or
certificates, and there is no way to identify which key/certificate
pair you want. For this reason this function is useful for PKCS12
files that contain only one key/certificate pair and/or one CRL.
If the provided structure has encrypted fields but no password is
provided then this function returns ‘GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED’ .
Note that normally the chain constructed does not include self
signed certificates, to comply with TLS’ requirements. If,
however, the flag ‘GNUTLS_PKCS12_SP_INCLUDE_SELF_SIGNED’ is
specified then self signed certificates will be included in the
chain.
Prior to using this function the PKCS ‘12’ structure integrity must
be verified using ‘gnutls_pkcs12_verify_mac()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.0
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_get_data:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, unsigned INDX, gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_get_key_id:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, unsigned INDX, gnutls_datum_t * ID)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_get_friendly_name:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, unsigned INDX, char ** NAME)’
The functions below are used to generate a PKCS #12 structure. An
example of their usage is shown at *note PKCS12 structure generation
example::.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_set_bag:: (gnutls_pkcs12_t PKCS12, gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_encrypt:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, const char * PASS, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_generate_mac:: (gnutls_pkcs12_t PKCS12, const char * PASS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_set_data:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, gnutls_pkcs12_bag_type_t TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_set_crl:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, gnutls_x509_crl_t CRL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_set_crt:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_set_key_id:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, unsigned INDX, const gnutls_datum_t * ID)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs12_bag_set_friendly_name:: (gnutls_pkcs12_bag_t BAG, unsigned INDX, const char * NAME)’
OpenSSL encrypted keys
......................
Unfortunately the structures discussed in the previous sections are not
the only structures that may hold an encrypted private key. For example
the OpenSSL library offers a custom key encryption method. Those
structures are also supported in GnuTLS with *note
gnutls_x509_privkey_import_openssl::.
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_privkey_import_openssl
(gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, const
char * PASSWORD)
KEY: The data to store the parsed key
DATA: The DER or PEM encoded key.
PASSWORD: the password to decrypt the key (if it is encrypted).
This function will convert the given PEM encrypted to the native
gnutls_x509_privkey_t format. The output will be stored in ‘key’ .
The ‘password’ should be in ASCII. If the password is not provided
or wrong then ‘GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED’ will be returned.
If the Certificate is PEM encoded it should have a header of
"PRIVATE KEY" and the "DEK-Info" header.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.

method” option. This will use the FIPS-186-4 algorithms for provable
key generation. You may specify –seed or use the seed stored in the
private key structure.
seed option.
............
This is the “when generating a private key use the given hex-encoded
seed” option. This option takes a ArgumentType.STRING argument. The
seed acts as a security parameter for the private key, and thus a seed
size which corresponds to the security level of the private key should
be provided (e.g., 256-bits seed).
crl-options options
...................
CRL related options.
generate-crl option.
....................
This is the “generate a crl” option. This option generates a
Certificate Revocation List. When combined with –load-crl it would use

verify-chain option (-e).
.........................
This is the “verify a pem encoded certificate chain” option. Verifies
the validity of a certificate chain. That is, an ordered set of
certificates where each one is the issuer of the previous, and the first
is the end-certificate to be validated. In a proper chain the last
certificate is a self signed one. It can be combined with
–verify-purpose or –verify-hostname.
verify option.
..............
This is the “verify a pem encoded certificate (chain) against a trusted
set” option. The trusted certificate list can be loaded with
–load-ca-certificate. If no certificate list is provided, then the
system’s trusted certificate list is used. Note that during
verification multiple paths may be explored. On a successful
verification the successful path will be the last one. It can be
combined with –verify-purpose or –verify-hostname.
verify-hostname option.
.......................
This is the “specify a hostname to be used for certificate chain
verification” option. This option takes a ArgumentType.STRING argument.

certtool Examples
.................
Generating private keys
.......................
To create an RSA private key, run:
$ certtool --generate-privkey --outfile key.pem --rsa
To create a DSA or elliptic curves (ECDSA) private key use the above
command combined with ’dsa’ or ’ecc’ options.
Generating certificate requests
...............................
To create a certificate request (needed when the certificate is issued
by another party), run:
certtool --generate-request --load-privkey key.pem \
--outfile request.pem
If the private key is stored in a smart card you can generate a request
by specifying the private key object URL.
$ ./certtool --generate-request --load-privkey "pkcs11:..." \
--load-pubkey "pkcs11:..." --outfile request.pem
Generating a self-signed certificate
....................................
To create a self signed certificate, use the command:
$ certtool --generate-privkey --outfile ca-key.pem
$ certtool --generate-self-signed --load-privkey ca-key.pem \
--outfile ca-cert.pem
Note that a self-signed certificate usually belongs to a certificate
authority, that signs other certificates.
Generating a certificate
........................
To generate a certificate using the previous request, use the command:
$ certtool --generate-certificate --load-request request.pem \
--outfile cert.pem --load-ca-certificate ca-cert.pem \
--load-ca-privkey ca-key.pem
To generate a certificate using the private key only, use the command:
$ certtool --generate-certificate --load-privkey key.pem \
--outfile cert.pem --load-ca-certificate ca-cert.pem \
--load-ca-privkey ca-key.pem
Certificate information
.......................
To view the certificate information, use:
$ certtool --certificate-info --infile cert.pem
Changing the certificate format
...............................
To convert the certificate from PEM to DER format, use:
$ certtool --certificate-info --infile cert.pem --outder --outfile cert.der
PKCS #12 structure generation
.............................
To generate a PKCS #12 structure using the previous key and certificate,
use the command:
$ certtool --load-certificate cert.pem --load-privkey key.pem \
--to-p12 --outder --outfile key.p12
Some tools (reportedly web browsers) have problems with that file
because it does not contain the CA certificate for the certificate. To
work around that problem in the tool, you can use the
–load-ca-certificate parameter as follows:
$ certtool --load-ca-certificate ca.pem \
--load-certificate cert.pem --load-privkey key.pem \
--to-p12 --outder --outfile key.p12
Obtaining Diffie-Hellman parameters
...................................
To obtain the RFC7919 parameters for Diffie-Hellman key exchange, use
the command:
$ certtool --get-dh-params --outfile dh.pem --sec-param medium
Verifying a certificate
.......................
To verify a certificate in a file against the system’s CA trust store
use the following command:
$ certtool --verify --infile cert.pem
It is also possible to simulate hostname verification with the following
options:
$ certtool --verify --verify-hostname www.example.com --infile cert.pem
Proxy certificate generation
............................
Proxy certificate can be used to delegate your credential to a
temporary, typically short-lived, certificate. To create one from the
previously created certificate, first create a temporary key and then
generate a proxy certificate for it, using the commands:
$ certtool --generate-privkey > proxy-key.pem
$ certtool --generate-proxy --load-ca-privkey key.pem \
--load-privkey proxy-key.pem --load-certificate cert.pem \
--outfile proxy-cert.pem
Certificate revocation list generation
......................................
To create an empty Certificate Revocation List (CRL) do:
$ certtool --generate-crl --load-ca-privkey x509-ca-key.pem \
--load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem
To create a CRL that contains some revoked certificates, place the
certificates in a file and use ‘--load-certificate’ as follows:
$ certtool --generate-crl --load-ca-privkey x509-ca-key.pem \
--load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem --load-certificate revoked-certs.pem
To verify a Certificate Revocation List (CRL) do:
$ certtool --verify-crl --load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem < crl.pem
certtool Files
..............
Certtool’s template file format
...............................
A template file can be used to avoid the interactive questions of
certtool. Initially create a file named ’cert.cfg’ that contains the
information about the certificate. The template can be used as below:
$ certtool --generate-certificate --load-privkey key.pem \
--template cert.cfg --outfile cert.pem \
--load-ca-certificate ca-cert.pem --load-ca-privkey ca-key.pem
An example certtool template file that can be used to generate a
certificate request or a self signed certificate follows.

4.2.7 Invoking ocsptool
-----------------------
On verification
---------------
Responses are typically signed/issued by designated certificates or
certificate authorities and thus this tool requires on verification the
certificate of the issuer or the full certificate chain in order to
determine the appropriate signing authority. The specified certificate
of the issuer is assumed trusted.
ocsptool help/usage (‘-?’)
..........................
The text printed is the same whether selected with the ‘help’ option
(‘--help’) or the ‘more-help’ option (‘--more-help’). ‘more-help’ will
print the usage text by passing it through a pager program. ‘more-help’
is disabled on platforms without a working ‘fork(2)’ function. The
‘PAGER’ environment variable is used to select the program, defaulting
to ‘more’. Both will exit with a status code of 0.

ocsptool Examples
.................
Print information about an OCSP request
.......................................
To parse an OCSP request and print information about the content, the
‘-i’ or ‘--request-info’ parameter may be used as follows. The ‘-Q’
parameter specify the name of the file containing the OCSP request, and
it should contain the OCSP request in binary DER format.
$ ocsptool -i -Q ocsp-request.der
The input file may also be sent to standard input like this:
$ cat ocsp-request.der | ocsptool --request-info
Print information about an OCSP response
........................................
Similar to parsing OCSP requests, OCSP responses can be parsed using the
‘-j’ or ‘--response-info’ as follows.
$ ocsptool -j -Q ocsp-response.der
$ cat ocsp-response.der | ocsptool --response-info
Generate an OCSP request
........................
The ‘-q’ or ‘--generate-request’ parameters are used to generate an OCSP
request. By default the OCSP request is written to standard output in
binary DER format, but can be stored in a file using ‘--outfile’. To
generate an OCSP request the issuer of the certificate to check needs to
be specified with ‘--load-issuer’ and the certificate to check with
‘--load-cert’. By default PEM format is used for these files, although
‘--inder’ can be used to specify that the input files are in DER format.
$ ocsptool -q --load-issuer issuer.pem --load-cert client.pem \
--outfile ocsp-request.der
When generating OCSP requests, the tool will add an OCSP extension
containing a nonce. This behaviour can be disabled by specifying
‘--no-nonce’.
Verify signature in OCSP response
.................................
To verify the signature in an OCSP response the ‘-e’ or
‘--verify-response’ parameter is used. The tool will read an OCSP
response in DER format from standard input, or from the file specified
by ‘--load-response’. The OCSP response is verified against a set of
trust anchors, which are specified using ‘--load-trust’. The trust
anchors are concatenated certificates in PEM format. The certificate
that signed the OCSP response needs to be in the set of trust anchors,
or the issuer of the signer certificate needs to be in the set of trust
anchors and the OCSP Extended Key Usage bit has to be asserted in the
signer certificate.
$ ocsptool -e --load-trust issuer.pem \
--load-response ocsp-response.der
The tool will print status of verification.
Verify signature in OCSP response against given certificate
...........................................................
It is possible to override the normal trust logic if you know that a
certain certificate is supposed to have signed the OCSP response, and
you want to use it to check the signature. This is achieved using
‘--load-signer’ instead of ‘--load-trust’. This will load one
certificate and it will be used to verify the signature in the OCSP
response. It will not check the Extended Key Usage bit.
$ ocsptool -e --load-signer ocsp-signer.pem \
--load-response ocsp-response.der
This approach is normally only relevant in two situations. The first is
when the OCSP response does not contain a copy of the signer
certificate, so the ‘--load-trust’ code would fail. The second is if
you want to avoid the indirect mode where the OCSP response signer
certificate is signed by a trust anchor.
Real-world example
..................
Here is an example of how to generate an OCSP request for a certificate
and to verify the response. For illustration we’ll use the
‘blog.josefsson.org’ host, which (as of writing) uses a certificate from
CACert. First we’ll use ‘gnutls-cli’ to get a copy of the server
certificate chain. The server is not required to send this information,
but this particular one is configured to do so.
$ echo | gnutls-cli -p 443 blog.josefsson.org --save-cert chain.pem
The saved certificates normally contain a pointer to where the OCSP
responder is located, in the Authority Information Access Information
extension. For example, from ‘certtool -i < chain.pem’ there is this
information:
Authority Information Access Information (not critical):
Access Method: 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.1 (id-ad-ocsp)
Access Location URI: https://ocsp.CAcert.org/
This means that ocsptool can discover the servers to contact over HTTP.
We can now request information on the chain certificates.
$ ocsptool --ask --load-chain chain.pem
The request is sent via HTTP to the OCSP server address found in the
certificates. It is possible to override the address of the OCSP server
as well as ask information on a particular certificate using –load-cert
and –load-issuer.
$ ocsptool --ask https://ocsp.CAcert.org/ --load-chain chain.pem

DANE TLSA RR generation
.......................
To create a DANE TLSA resource record for a certificate (or public key)
that was issued localy and may or may not be signed by a CA use the
following command.
$ danetool --tlsa-rr --host www.example.com --load-certificate cert.pem
To create a DANE TLSA resource record for a CA signed certificate, which
will be marked as such use the following command.
$ danetool --tlsa-rr --host www.example.com --load-certificate cert.pem \
--no-domain
The former is useful to add in your DNS entry even if your certificate
is signed by a CA. That way even users who do not trust your CA will be
able to verify your certificate using DANE.
In order to create a record for the CA signer of your certificate use
the following.
$ danetool --tlsa-rr --host www.example.com --load-certificate cert.pem \
--ca --no-domain
To read a server’s DANE TLSA entry, use:
$ danetool --check www.example.com --proto tcp --port 443
To verify an HTTPS server’s DANE TLSA entry, use:
$ danetool --check www.example.com --proto tcp --port 443 --load-certificate chain.pem
To verify an SMTP server’s DANE TLSA entry, use:

4.3.1.1 Authentication using PSK
................................
Authentication using Pre-shared keys is a method to authenticate using
usernames and binary keys. This protocol avoids making use of public
key infrastructure and expensive calculations, thus it is suitable for
constraint clients. It is available under all TLS protocol versions.
The implementation in GnuTLS is based on [*note TLSPSK::]. The
supported PSK key exchange methods are:
‘PSK:’
Authentication using the PSK protocol (no forward secrecy).
‘DHE-PSK:’
Authentication using the PSK protocol and Diffie-Hellman key
exchange. This method offers perfect forward secrecy.
‘ECDHE-PSK:’
Authentication using the PSK protocol and Elliptic curve
Diffie-Hellman key exchange. This method offers perfect forward
secrecy.
‘RSA-PSK:’
Authentication using the PSK protocol for the client and an RSA
certificate for the server. This is not available under TLS 1.3.
Helper functions to generate and maintain PSK keys are also included in
GnuTLS.

4.3.2.1 Authentication using SRP
................................
GnuTLS supports authentication via the Secure Remote Password or SRP
protocol (see [*note TOMSRP: RFC2945.] for a description). The SRP key
exchange is an extension to the TLS protocol, and it provides an
authenticated with a password key exchange. The peers can be identified
using a single password, or there can be combinations where the client
is authenticated using SRP and the server using a certificate. It is
only available under TLS 1.2 or earlier versions.
The advantage of SRP authentication, over other proposed secure password
authentication schemes, is that SRP is not susceptible to off-line
dictionary attacks. Moreover, SRP does not require the server to hold
the user’s password. This kind of protection is similar to the one used
traditionally in the UNIX ‘/etc/passwd’ file, where the contents of this
file did not cause harm to the system security if they were revealed.
The SRP needs instead of the plain password something called a verifier,
which is calculated using the user’s password, and if stolen cannot be
used to impersonate the user.
Typical conventions in SRP are a password file, called ‘tpasswd’ that
holds the SRP verifiers (encoded passwords) and another file,
‘tpasswd.conf’, which holds the allowed SRP parameters. The included in
GnuTLS helper follow those conventions. The srptool program, discussed
in the next section is a tool to manipulate the SRP parameters.
The implementation in GnuTLS is based on [*note TLSSRP::]. The
supported key exchange methods are shown below. Enabling any of these
key exchange methods in a session disables support for TLS1.3.
‘SRP:’
Authentication using the SRP protocol.
‘SRP_DSS:’
Client authentication using the SRP protocol. Server is
authenticated using a certificate with DSA parameters.
‘SRP_RSA:’
Client authentication using the SRP protocol. Server is
authenticated using a certificate with RSA parameters.
-- Function: int gnutls_srp_verifier (const char * USERNAME, const char
* PASSWORD, const gnutls_datum_t * SALT, const gnutls_datum_t
* GENERATOR, const gnutls_datum_t * PRIME, gnutls_datum_t *
RES)
USERNAME: is the user’s name
PASSWORD: is the user’s password
SALT: should be some randomly generated bytes
GENERATOR: is the generator of the group
PRIME: is the group’s prime
RES: where the verifier will be stored.
This function will create an SRP verifier, as specified in RFC2945.
The ‘prime’ and ‘generator’ should be one of the static parameters
defined in gnutls/gnutls.h or may be generated.
The verifier will be allocated with ‘gnutls_malloc’ () and will be
stored in ‘res’ using binary format.

$ srptool --passwd /usr/local/etc/tpasswd --passwd-conf /usr/local/etc/tpasswd.conf -u test
This command will check against a password. If the password matches the
one in ‘/usr/local/etc/tpasswd’ you will get an ok.
$ srptool --passwd /usr/local/etc/tpasswd --passwd\-conf /usr/local/etc/tpasswd.conf --verify -u test

4.3.3 Anonymous authentication
------------------------------
The anonymous key exchange offers encryption without any indication of
the peer’s identity. This kind of authentication is vulnerable to a man
in the middle attack, but can be used even if there is no prior
communication or shared trusted parties with the peer. It is useful to
establish a session over which certificate authentication will occur in
order to hide the indentities of the participants from passive
eavesdroppers. It is only available under TLS 1.2 or earlier versions.
Unless in the above case, it is not recommended to use anonymous
authentication. In the cases where there is no prior communication with
the peers, an alternative with better properties, such as key
continuity, is trust on first use (see *note Verifying a certificate
using trust on first use authentication::).
The available key exchange algorithms for anonymous authentication are
shown below, but note that few public servers support them, and they
have to be explicitly enabled. These ciphersuites are negotiated only
under TLS 1.2.
‘ANON_DH:’
This algorithm exchanges Diffie-Hellman parameters.
‘ANON_ECDH:’
This algorithm exchanges elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman parameters.
It is more efficient than ANON_DH on equivalent security levels.

4.4 Selecting an appropriate authentication method
==================================================
This section provides some guidance on how to use the available
authentication methods in GnuTLS in various scenarios.
4.4.1 Two peers with an out-of-band channel
-------------------------------------------
Let’s consider two peers who need to communicate over an untrusted
channel (the Internet), but have an out-of-band channel available. The
latter channel is considered safe from eavesdropping and message
modification and thus can be used for an initial bootstrapping of the
protocol. The options available are:
• Pre-shared keys (see *note PSK authentication::). The server and a
client communicate a shared randomly generated key over the trusted
channel and use it to negotiate further sessions over the untrusted
channel.
• Passwords (see *note SRP authentication::). The client
communicates to the server its username and password of choice and
uses it to negotiate further sessions over the untrusted channel.
• Public keys (see *note Certificate authentication::). The client
and the server exchange their public keys (or fingerprints of them)
over the trusted channel. On future sessions over the untrusted
channel they verify the key being the same (similar to *note
Verifying a certificate using trust on first use authentication::).
Provided that the out-of-band channel is trusted all of the above
provide a similar level of protection. An out-of-band channel may be
the initial bootstrapping of a user’s PC in a corporate environment,
in-person communication, communication over an alternative network (e.g.
the phone network), etc.
4.4.2 Two peers without an out-of-band channel
----------------------------------------------
When an out-of-band channel is not available a peer cannot be reliably
authenticated. What can be done, however, is to allow some form of
registration of users connecting for the first time and ensure that
their keys remain the same after that initial connection. This is
termed key continuity or trust on first use (TOFU).
The available option is to use public key authentication (see *note
Certificate authentication::). The client and the server store each
other’s public keys (or fingerprints of them) and associate them with
their identity. On future sessions over the untrusted channel they
verify the keys being the same (see *note Verifying a certificate using
trust on first use authentication::).
To mitigate the uncertainty of the information exchanged in the first
connection other channels over the Internet may be used, e.g., DNSSEC
(see *note Verifying a certificate using DANE::).
4.4.3 Two peers and a trusted third party
-----------------------------------------
When a trusted third party is available (or a certificate authority) the
most suitable option is to use certificate authentication (see *note
Certificate authentication::). The client and the server obtain
certificates that associate their identity and public keys using a
digital signature by the trusted party and use them to on the subsequent
communications with each other. Each party verifies the peer’s
certificate using the trusted third party’s signature. The parameters
of the third party’s signature are present in its certificate which must
be available to all communicating parties.
While the above is the typical authentication method for servers in the
Internet by using the commercial CAs, the users that act as clients in
the protocol rarely possess such certificates. In that case a hybrid
method can be used where the server is authenticated by the client using
the commercial CAs and the client is authenticated based on some
information the client provided over the initial server-authenticated
channel. The available options are:
• Passwords (see *note SRP authentication::). The client
communicates to the server its username and password of choice on
the initial server-authenticated connection and uses it to
negotiate further sessions. This is possible because the SRP
protocol allows for the server to be authenticated using a
certificate and the client using the password.
• Public keys (see *note Certificate authentication::). The client
sends its public key to the server (or a fingerprint of it) over
the initial server-authenticated connection. On future sessions
the client verifies the server using the third party certificate
and the server verifies that the client’s public key remained the
same (see *note Verifying a certificate using trust on first use
authentication::).

5 Abstract key types and Hardware security modules
**************************************************
In several cases storing the long term cryptographic keys in a hard disk
or even in memory poses a significant risk. Once the system they are
stored is compromised the keys must be replaced as the secrecy of future
sessions is no longer guaranteed. Moreover, past sessions that were not
protected by a perfect forward secrecy offering ciphersuite are also to
be assumed compromised.
If such threats need to be addressed, then it may be wise storing the
keys in a security module such as a smart card, an HSM or the TPM chip.
Those modules ensure the protection of the cryptographic keys by only
allowing operations on them and preventing their extraction. The
purpose of the abstract key API is to provide an API that will allow the
handle of keys in memory and files, as well as keys stored in such
modules.
In GnuTLS the approach is to handle all keys transparently by the high
level API, e.g., the API that loads a key or certificate from a file.
The high-level API will accept URIs in addition to files that specify
keys on an HSM or in TPM, and a callback function will be used to obtain
any required keys. The URI format is defined in [*note PKCS11URI::].
More information on the API is provided in the next sections. Examples
of a URI of a certificate stored in an HSM, as well as a key stored in
the TPM chip are shown below. To discover the URIs of the objects the
‘p11tool’ (see *note p11tool Invocation::).

5.1 Abstract key types
======================
Since there are many forms of a public or private keys supported by
GnuTLS such as X.509, PKCS #11 or TPM it is desirable to allow common
operations on them. For these reasons the abstract ‘gnutls_privkey_t’
and ‘gnutls_pubkey_t’ were introduced in ‘gnutls/abstract.h’ header.
Those types are initialized using a specific type of key and then can be
used to perform operations in an abstract way. For example in order to
sign an X.509 certificate with a key that resides in a token the
following steps can be used.
#include <gnutls/abstract.h>
void sign_cert( gnutls_x509_crt_t to_be_signed)
{
gnutls_x509_crt_t ca_cert;
gnutls_privkey_t abs_key;
/* initialize the abstract key */
gnutls_privkey_init(&abs_key);
/* keys stored in tokens are identified by URLs */
gnutls_privkey_import_url(abs_key, key_url);
gnutls_x509_crt_init(&ca_cert);
gnutls_x509_crt_import_url(&ca_cert, cert_url);
/* sign the certificate to be signed */
gnutls_x509_crt_privkey_sign(to_be_signed, ca_cert, abs_key,
GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256, 0);
}

5.1.1 Public keys
-----------------
An abstract ‘gnutls_pubkey_t’ can be initialized and freed by using the
functions below.
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_init:: (gnutls_pubkey_t * KEY)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pubkey_deinit:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY)’
After initialization its values can be imported from an existing
structure like ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’, or through an ASN.1 encoding of the
X.509 ‘SubjectPublicKeyInfo’ sequence.
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_x509:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_pkcs11:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t OBJ, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_url:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, const char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_privkey:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_privkey_t PKEY, unsigned int USAGE, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_export:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, void * OUTPUT_DATA, size_t * OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE)’
-- Function: int gnutls_pubkey_export2 (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY,
gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, gnutls_datum_t * OUT)
KEY: Holds the certificate
FORMAT: the format of output params. One of PEM or DER.
OUT: will contain a certificate PEM or DER encoded
This function will export the public key to DER or PEM format. The
contents of the exported data is the SubjectPublicKeyInfo X.509
structure.
The output buffer will be allocated using ‘gnutls_malloc()’ .
If the structure is PEM encoded, it will have a header of "BEGIN
CERTIFICATE".
*Returns:* In case of failure a negative error code will be
returned, and 0 on success.
*Since:* 3.1.3
Other helper functions that allow directly importing from raw X.509
structures are shown below.
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_x509_raw:: (gnutls_pubkey_t PKEY, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, unsigned int FLAGS)’
An important function is *note gnutls_pubkey_import_url:: which will
import public keys from URLs that identify objects stored in tokens (see
*note Smart cards and HSMs:: and *note Trusted Platform Module::). A
function to check for a supported by GnuTLS URL is *note
gnutls_url_is_supported::.
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_url_is_supported (const char * URL)
URL: A URI to be tested
Check whether the provided ‘url’ is supported. Depending on the
system libraries GnuTLS may support pkcs11, tpmkey or other URLs.
*Returns:* return non-zero if the given URL is supported, and zero
if it is not known.
*Since:* 3.1.0
Additional functions are available that will return information over a
public key, such as a unique key ID, as well as a function that given a
public key fingerprint would provide a memorable sketch.
Note that *note gnutls_pubkey_get_key_id:: calculates a SHA1 digest of
the public key as a DER-formatted, subjectPublicKeyInfo object. Other
implementations use different approaches, e.g., some use the “common
method” described in section 4.2.1.2 of [*note RFC5280::] which
calculates a digest on a part of the subjectPublicKeyInfo object.
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_get_pk_algorithm:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, unsigned int * BITS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_get_preferred_hash_algorithm:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t * HASH, unsigned int * MAND)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_get_key_id:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, unsigned int FLAGS, unsigned char * OUTPUT_DATA, size_t * OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_random_art:: (gnutls_random_art_t TYPE, const char * KEY_TYPE, unsigned int KEY_SIZE, void * FPR, size_t FPR_SIZE, gnutls_datum_t * ART)’
To export the key-specific parameters, or obtain a unique key ID the
following functions are provided.
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_export_rsa_raw2:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_datum_t * M, gnutls_datum_t * E, unsigned FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_export_dsa_raw2:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_datum_t * P, gnutls_datum_t * Q, gnutls_datum_t * G, gnutls_datum_t * Y, unsigned FLAGS)’

5.1.2 Private keys
------------------
An abstract ‘gnutls_privkey_t’ can be initialized and freed by using the
functions below.
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_init:: (gnutls_privkey_t * KEY)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_privkey_deinit:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY)’
After initialization its values can be imported from an existing
structure like ‘gnutls_x509_privkey_t’, but unlike public keys it cannot
be exported. That is to allow abstraction over keys stored in hardware
that makes available only operations.
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_import_x509:: (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY, gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_import_pkcs11:: (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY, gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_t KEY, unsigned int FLAGS)’
Other helper functions that allow directly importing from raw X.509
structures are shown below. Again, as with public keys, private keys
can be imported from a hardware module using URLs.
-- Function: int gnutls_privkey_import_url (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, const
char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)
KEY: A key of type ‘gnutls_privkey_t’
URL: A PKCS 11 url
FLAGS: should be zero
This function will import a PKCS11 or TPM URL as a private key.
The supported URL types can be checked using
‘gnutls_url_is_supported()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.0
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_import_x509_raw:: (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, const char * PASSWORD, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_get_pk_algorithm:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, unsigned int * BITS)’
‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_TYPE_T *note gnutls_privkey_get_type:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_status:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY)’
In order to support cryptographic operations using an external API, the
following function is provided. This allows for a simple extensibility
API without resorting to PKCS #11.
-- Function: int gnutls_privkey_import_ext4 (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY,
void * USERDATA, gnutls_privkey_sign_data_func SIGN_DATA_FN,
gnutls_privkey_sign_hash_func SIGN_HASH_FN,
gnutls_privkey_decrypt_func DECRYPT_FN,
gnutls_privkey_deinit_func DEINIT_FN, gnutls_privkey_info_func
INFO_FN, unsigned int FLAGS)
PKEY: The private key
USERDATA: private data to be provided to the callbacks
SIGN_DATA_FN: callback for signature operations (may be ‘NULL’ )
SIGN_HASH_FN: callback for signature operations (may be ‘NULL’ )
DECRYPT_FN: callback for decryption operations (may be ‘NULL’ )
DEINIT_FN: a deinitialization function
INFO_FN: returns info about the public key algorithm (should not be
‘NULL’ )
FLAGS: Flags for the import
This function will associate the given callbacks with the
‘gnutls_privkey_t’ type. At least one of the callbacks must be
non-null. If a deinitialization function is provided then flags is
assumed to contain ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_IMPORT_AUTO_RELEASE’ .
Note that in contrast with the signing function of
‘gnutls_privkey_import_ext3()’ , the signing functions provided to
this function take explicitly the signature algorithm as parameter
and different functions are provided to sign the data and hashes.
The ‘sign_hash_fn’ is to be called to sign pre-hashed data. The
input to the callback is the output of the hash (such as SHA256)
corresponding to the signature algorithm. For RSA PKCS‘1’
signatures, the signature algorithm can be set to
‘GNUTLS_SIGN_RSA_RAW’ , and in that case the data should be handled
as if they were an RSA PKCS‘1’ DigestInfo structure.
The ‘sign_data_fn’ is to be called to sign data. The input data
will be he data to be signed (and hashed), with the provided
signature algorithm. This function is to be used for signature
algorithms like Ed25519 which cannot take pre-hashed data as input.
When both ‘sign_data_fn’ and ‘sign_hash_fn’ functions are provided
they must be able to operate on all the supported signature
algorithms, unless prohibited by the type of the algorithm (e.g.,
as with Ed25519).
The ‘info_fn’ must provide information on the signature algorithms
supported by this private key, and should support the flags
‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_INFO_PK_ALGO’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_INFO_HAVE_SIGN_ALGO’ and
‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_INFO_PK_ALGO_BITS’ . It must return -1 on unknown
flags.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.6.0
On the private keys where exporting of parameters is possible (i.e.,
software keys), the following functions are also available.
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_export_rsa_raw2:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, gnutls_datum_t * M, gnutls_datum_t * E, gnutls_datum_t * D, gnutls_datum_t * P, gnutls_datum_t * Q, gnutls_datum_t * U, gnutls_datum_t * E1, gnutls_datum_t * E2, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_export_dsa_raw2:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, gnutls_datum_t * P, gnutls_datum_t * Q, gnutls_datum_t * G, gnutls_datum_t * Y, gnutls_datum_t * X, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_export_ecc_raw2:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, gnutls_ecc_curve_t * CURVE, gnutls_datum_t * X, gnutls_datum_t * Y, gnutls_datum_t * K, unsigned int FLAGS)’

KEY: Holds the public key
ALGO: The signature algorithm used
FLAGS: Zero or an OR list of ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’
HASH: holds the hash digest to be verified
SIGNATURE: contains the signature
This function will verify the given signed digest, using the

‘gnutls_pk_to_sign()’ to get the appropriate value.
*Returns:* In case of a verification failure

DATA: holds the data to be signed
SIGNATURE: will contain the signature allocated with
‘gnutls_malloc()’
This function will sign the given data using a signature algorithm
supported by the private key. Signature algorithms are always used

used for the RSA algorithm, but only the SHA family for the DSA
keys.

You may use ‘gnutls_pubkey_get_preferred_hash_algorithm()’ to
determine the hash algorithm.
The flags may be ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_SIGN_FLAG_TLS1_RSA’ or
‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_SIGN_FLAG_RSA_PSS’ . In the former case this
function will ignore ‘hash_algo’ and perform a raw PKCS1 signature,
and in the latter an RSA-PSS signature will be generated.
Note that, not all algorithm support signing already hashed data.
When signing with Ed25519, ‘gnutls_privkey_sign_data()’ should be
used.

5.2 System and application-specific keys
========================================
5.2.1 System-specific keys
--------------------------
In several systems there are keystores which allow to read, store and
use certificates and private keys. For these systems GnuTLS provides
the system-key API in ‘gnutls/system-keys.h’. That API provides the
ability to iterate through all stored keys, add and delete keys as well
as use these keys using a URL which starts with "system:". The format
of the URLs is system-specific. The ‘systemkey’ tool is also provided
to assist in listing keys and debugging.
The systems supported via this API are the following.
• Windows Cryptography API (CNG)

(gnutls_system_key_iter_t * ITER, unsigned CERT_TYPE, char **
CERT_URL, char ** KEY_URL, char ** LABEL, gnutls_datum_t *

ITER: an iterator of the system keys (must be set to ‘NULL’

type of certificate to look for
CERT_URL: The certificate URL of the pair (may be ‘NULL’ )

FLAGS: should be zero
This function will return on each call a certificate and key pair
URLs, as well as a label associated with them, and the DER-encoded
certificate. When the iteration is complete it will return
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ .
Typically ‘cert_type’ should be ‘GNUTLS_CRT_X509’ .

‘INT *note gnutls_system_key_delete:: (const char * CERT_URL, const char * KEY_URL)’
5.2.2 Application-specific keys
-------------------------------
For systems where GnuTLS doesn’t provide a system specific store, it may
often be desirable to define a custom class of keys that are identified
via URLs and available to GnuTLS calls such as *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2::. Such keys can be registered
using the API in ‘gnutls/urls.h’. The function which registers such
keys is *note gnutls_register_custom_url::.
-- Function: int gnutls_register_custom_url (const gnutls_custom_url_st
* ST)
ST: A ‘gnutls_custom_url_st’ structure
Register a custom URL. This will affect the following functions:
‘gnutls_url_is_supported()’ , ‘gnutls_privkey_import_url()’ ,
gnutls_pubkey_import_url, ‘gnutls_x509_crt_import_url()’ and all
functions that depend on them, e.g.,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2()’ .
The provided structure and callback functions must be valid
throughout the lifetime of the process. The registration of an
existing URL type will fail with ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
Since GnuTLS 3.5.0 this function can be used to override the
builtin URLs.
This function is not thread safe.
*Returns:* returns zero if the given structure was imported or a
negative value otherwise.
*Since:* 3.4.0
The input to this function are three callback functions as well as the
prefix of the URL, (e.g., "mypkcs11:") and the length of the prefix.
The types of the callbacks are shown below, and are expected to use the
exported gnutls functions to import the keys and certificates. E.g., a
typical ‘import_key’ callback should use *note
gnutls_privkey_import_ext4::.
typedef int (*gnutls_privkey_import_url_func)(gnutls_privkey_t pkey,
const char *url,
unsigned flags);
typedef int (*gnutls_x509_crt_import_url_func)(gnutls_x509_crt_t pkey,
const char *url,
unsigned flags);
/* The following callbacks are optional */
/* This is to enable gnutls_pubkey_import_url() */
typedef int (*gnutls_pubkey_import_url_func)(gnutls_pubkey_t pkey,
const char *url, unsigned flags);
/* This is to allow constructing a certificate chain. It will be provided
* the initial certificate URL and the certificate to find its issuer, and must
* return zero and the DER encoding of the issuer's certificate. If not available,
* it should return GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE. */
typedef int (*gnutls_get_raw_issuer_func)(const char *url, gnutls_x509_crt_t crt,
gnutls_datum_t *issuer_der, unsigned flags);
typedef struct custom_url_st {
const char *name;
unsigned name_size;
gnutls_privkey_import_url_func import_key;
gnutls_x509_crt_import_url_func import_crt;
gnutls_pubkey_import_url_func import_pubkey;

5.3 Smart cards and HSMs
========================
In this section we present the smart-card and hardware security module
(HSM) support in GnuTLS using PKCS #11 [*note PKCS11::]. Hardware
security modules and smart cards provide a way to store private keys and
perform operations on them without exposing them. This decouples
cryptographic keys from the applications that use them and provide an
additional security layer against cryptographic key extraction. Since
this can also be achieved in software components such as in Gnome
keyring, we will use the term security module to describe any
cryptographic key separation subsystem.
PKCS #11 is plugin API allowing applications to access cryptographic
operations on a security module, as well as to objects residing on it.
PKCS #11 modules exist for hardware tokens such as smart cards(1),
cryptographic tokens, as well as for software modules like Gnome
Keyring. The objects residing on a security module may be certificates,
public keys, private keys or secret keys. Of those certificates and
public/private key pairs can be used with GnuTLS. PKCS #11’s main
advantage is that it allows operations on private key objects such as
decryption and signing without exposing the key. In GnuTLS the PKCS #11
functionality is available in ‘gnutls/pkcs11.h’.

File: gnutls.info, Node: PKCS11 Initialization, Next: PKCS11 Manual Initialization, Up: Smart cards and HSMs
5.3.1 Initialization
--------------------
To allow all GnuTLS applications to transparently access smart cards and
tokens, PKCS #11 is automatically initialized during the first call of a
PKCS #11 related function, in a thread safe way. The default
initialization process, utilizes p11-kit configuration, and loads any
appropriate PKCS #11 modules. The p11-kit configuration files(1) are
typically stored in ‘/usr/local/share/p11-kit/modules/’. For example a
file that will instruct GnuTLS to load the OpenSC module, could be named
‘/usr/local/share/p11-kit/modules/opensc.module’ and contain the
following:
module: /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so
If you use these configuration files, then there is no need for other
initialization in GnuTLS, except for the PIN and token callbacks (see
next section). In several cases, however, it is desirable to limit
badly behaving modules (e.g., modules that add an unacceptable delay on
initialization) to single applications. That can be done using the
“enable-in:” option followed by the base name of applications that this
module should be used.
It is also possible to manually initialize or even disable the PKCS #11
subsystem if the default settings are not desirable or not available
(see *note PKCS11 Manual Initialization:: for more information).
Note that, PKCS #11 modules behave in a peculiar way after a fork; they
require a reinitialization of all the used PKCS #11 resources. While
GnuTLS automates that process, there are corner cases where it is not
possible to handle it correctly in an automated way(2). For that, it is
recommended not to mix fork() and PKCS #11 module usage. It is
recommended to initialize and use any PKCS #11 resources in a single
process.
Older versions of GnuTLS required to call *note gnutls_pkcs11_reinit::
after a fork() call; since 3.3.0 this is no longer required.
---------- Footnotes ----------

PIN is not available to GnuTLS (e.g., it was entered at a pinpad).

5.3.2 Manual initialization of user-specific modules
----------------------------------------------------
In systems where one cannot rely on a globally available p11-kit
configuration to be available, it is still possible to utilize PKCS #11
objects. That can be done by loading directly the PKCS #11 shared
module in the application using *note gnutls_pkcs11_add_provider::,
after having called *note gnutls_pkcs11_init:: specifying the
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_MANUAL’ flag.
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_add_provider (const char * NAME, const
char * PARAMS)
NAME: The filename of the module
PARAMS: should be NULL or a known string (see description)
This function will load and add a PKCS 11 module to the module list
used in gnutls. After this function is called the module will be
used for PKCS 11 operations.
When loading a module to be used for certificate verification, use
the string ’trusted’ as ‘params’ .
Note that this function is not thread safe.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 2.12.0
In that case, the application will only have access to the modules
explicitly loaded. If the ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_MANUAL’ flag is specified
and no calls to *note gnutls_pkcs11_add_provider:: are made, then the
PKCS #11 functionality is effectively disabled.
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_init (unsigned int FLAGS, const char *
DEPRECATED_CONFIG_FILE)
FLAGS: An ORed sequence of ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_’ *
DEPRECATED_CONFIG_FILE: either NULL or the location of a deprecated
configuration file
This function will initialize the PKCS 11 subsystem in gnutls. It
will read configuration files if ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_AUTO’ is used
or allow you to independently load PKCS 11 modules using
‘gnutls_pkcs11_add_provider()’ if ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_MANUAL’ is
specified.
You don’t need to call this function since GnuTLS 3.3.0 because it
is being called during the first request PKCS 11 operation. That
call will assume the ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_FLAG_AUTO’ flag. If another
flags are required then it must be called independently prior to
any PKCS 11 operation.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 2.12.0
File: gnutls.info, Node: Accessing objects that require a PIN, Next: Reading objects, Prev: PKCS11 Manual Initialization, Up: Smart cards and HSMs
5.3.3 Accessing objects that require a PIN
------------------------------------------
Objects stored in token such as a private keys are typically protected
from access by a PIN or password. This PIN may be required to either
read the object (if allowed) or to perform operations with it. To allow
obtaining the PIN when accessing a protected object, as well as probe
the user to insert the token the following functions allow to set a
callback.
‘VOID *note gnutls_pkcs11_set_token_function:: (gnutls_pkcs11_token_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pkcs11_set_pin_function:: (gnutls_pin_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_add_provider:: (const char * NAME, const char * PARAMS)’
‘GNUTLS_PIN_CALLBACK_T *note gnutls_pkcs11_get_pin_function:: (void ** USERDATA)’
The callback is of type ‘gnutls_pin_callback_t’ and will have as input
the provided userdata, the PIN attempt number, a URL describing the
token, a label describing the object and flags. The PIN must be at most
of ‘pin_max’ size and must be copied to pin variable. The function must
return 0 on success or a negative error code otherwise.
typedef int (*gnutls_pin_callback_t) (void *userdata, int attempt,
const char *token_url,
const char *token_label,
unsigned int flags,
char *pin, size_t pin_max);
The flags are of ‘gnutls_pin_flag_t’ type and are explained below.
‘GNUTLS_PIN_USER’
The PIN for the user.
‘GNUTLS_PIN_SO’
The PIN for the security officer (admin).
‘GNUTLS_PIN_FINAL_TRY’
This is the final try before blocking.
‘GNUTLS_PIN_COUNT_LOW’
Few tries remain before token blocks.
‘GNUTLS_PIN_CONTEXT_SPECIFIC’
The PIN is for a specific action and key like signing.
‘GNUTLS_PIN_WRONG’
Last given PIN was not correct.
Figure 5.2: The ‘gnutls_pin_flag_t’ enumeration.
Note that due to limitations of PKCS #11 there are issues when multiple
libraries are sharing a module. To avoid this problem GnuTLS uses
p11-kit that provides a middleware to control access to resources over
the multiple users.
To avoid conflicts with multiple registered callbacks for PIN functions,
*note gnutls_pkcs11_get_pin_function:: may be used to check for any
previously set functions. In addition context specific PIN functions
are allowed, e.g., by using functions below.
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_pin_function:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_pin_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pubkey_set_pin_function:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_pin_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_privkey_set_pin_function:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, gnutls_pin_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pkcs11_obj_set_pin_function:: (gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t OBJ, gnutls_pin_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_x509_crt_set_pin_function:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, gnutls_pin_callback_t FN, void * USERDATA)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: Reading objects, Next: Writing objects, Prev: Accessing objects that require a PIN, Up: Smart cards and HSMs
5.3.4 Reading objects
---------------------
All PKCS #11 objects are referenced by GnuTLS functions by URLs as
described in [*note PKCS11URI::]. This allows for a consistent naming
of objects across systems and applications in the same system. For
example a public key on a smart card may be referenced as:
pkcs11:token=Nikos;serial=307521161601031;model=PKCS%2315; \
manufacturer=EnterSafe;object=test1;type=public;\
id=32f153f3e37990b08624141077ca5dec2d15faed
while the smart card itself can be referenced as:
pkcs11:token=Nikos;serial=307521161601031;model=PKCS%2315;manufacturer=EnterSafe
Objects stored in a PKCS #11 token can typically be extracted if they
are not marked as sensitive. Usually only private keys are marked as
sensitive and cannot be extracted, while certificates and other data can
be retrieved. The functions that can be used to enumerate and access
objects are shown below.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_obj_list_import_url4:: (gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t ** P_LIST, unsigned int * N_LIST, const char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_obj_import_url:: (gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t OBJ, const char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_obj_export_url:: (gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t OBJ, gnutls_pkcs11_url_type_t DETAILED, char ** URL)’
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_obj_get_info (gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t OBJ,
gnutls_pkcs11_obj_info_t ITYPE, void * OUTPUT, size_t *
OUTPUT_SIZE)
OBJ: should contain a ‘gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t’ type
ITYPE: Denotes the type of information requested
OUTPUT: where output will be stored
OUTPUT_SIZE: contains the maximum size of the output buffer and
will be overwritten with the actual size.
This function will return information about the PKCS11 certificate
such as the label, id as well as token information where the key is
stored.
When output is text, a null terminated string is written to
‘output’ and its string length is written to ‘output_size’ (without
null terminator). If the buffer is too small, ‘output_size’ will
contain the expected buffer size (with null terminator for text)
and return ‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’ .
In versions previously to 3.6.0 this function included the null
terminator to ‘output_size’ . After 3.6.0 the output size doesn’t
include the terminator character.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success or a negative error
code on error.
*Since:* 2.12.0
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_import_pkcs11:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t PKCS11_CRT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_import_url:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, const char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_x509_crt_list_import_pkcs11:: (gnutls_x509_crt_t * CERTS, unsigned int CERT_MAX, gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t * const OBJS, unsigned int FLAGS)’
Properties of the physical token can also be accessed and altered with
GnuTLS. For example data in a token can be erased (initialized), PIN
can be altered, etc.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_token_init:: (const char * TOKEN_URL, const char * SO_PIN, const char * LABEL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_token_get_url:: (unsigned int SEQ, gnutls_pkcs11_url_type_t DETAILED, char ** URL)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_token_get_info:: (const char * URL, gnutls_pkcs11_token_info_t TTYPE, void * OUTPUT, size_t * OUTPUT_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_token_get_flags:: (const char * URL, unsigned int * FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs11_token_set_pin:: (const char * TOKEN_URL, const char * OLDPIN, const char * NEWPIN, unsigned int FLAGS)’
The following examples demonstrate the usage of the API. The first
example will list all available PKCS #11 tokens in a system and the
latter will list all certificates in a token that have a corresponding
private key.

5.3.5 Writing objects
---------------------
With GnuTLS you can copy existing private keys and certificates to a
token. Note that when copying private keys it is recommended to mark
them as sensitive using the ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_SENSITIVE’ to
prevent its extraction. An object can be marked as private using the
flag ‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_PRIVATE’, to require PIN to be entered
before accessing the object (for operations or otherwise).
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey2 (const char *
TOKEN_URL, gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY, const char * LABEL,
const gnutls_datum_t * CID, unsigned int KEY_USAGE, unsigned
int FLAGS)
TOKEN_URL: A PKCS ‘11’ URL specifying a token
KEY: A private key
LABEL: A name to be used for the stored data
CID: The CKA_ID to set for the object -if NULL, the ID will be
derived from the public key
KEY_USAGE: One of GNUTLS_KEY_*
FLAGS: One of GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_* flags
This function will copy a private key into a PKCS ‘11’ token
specified by a URL.
Since 3.6.3 the objects are marked as sensitive by default unless
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_NOT_SENSITIVE’ is specified.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.4.0
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_crt2 (const char * TOKEN_URL,
gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, const char * LABEL, const

TOKEN_URL: A PKCS ‘11’ URL specifying a token
CRT: The certificate to copy
LABEL: The name to be used for the stored data
CID: The CKA_ID to set for the object -if NULL, the ID will be
derived from the public key
FLAGS: One of GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_*
This function will copy a certificate into a PKCS ‘11’ token
specified by a URL. Valid flags to mark the certificate:
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_TRUSTED’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_PRIVATE’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_CA’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_ALWAYS_AUTH’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.4.0
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_delete_url (const char * OBJECT_URL,
unsigned int FLAGS)
OBJECT_URL: The URL of the object to delete.
FLAGS: One of GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_* flags
This function will delete objects matching the given URL. Note that
not all tokens support the delete operation.
*Returns:* On success, the number of objects deleted is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.

5.3.6 Low Level Access
----------------------
When it is needed to use PKCS#11 functionality which is not wrapped by
GnuTLS, it is possible to extract the PKCS#11 session, object or token
pointers. That allows an application to still access the low-level
functionality, while at the same time take advantage of the URI
addressing scheme supported by GnuTLS.
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_token_get_ptr (const char * URL, void **
PTR, unsigned long * SLOT_ID, unsigned int FLAGS)
URL: should contain a PKCS‘11’ URL identifying a token
PTR: will contain the CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR pointer
SLOT_ID: will contain the slot_id (may be ‘NULL’ )
FLAGS: should be zero
This function will return the function pointer of the specified
token by the URL. The returned pointers are valid until gnutls is
deinitialized, c.f. ‘_global_deinit()’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success or a negative error
code on error.
*Since:* 3.6.3
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs11_obj_get_ptr (gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t OBJ,
void ** PTR, void ** SESSION, void ** OHANDLE, unsigned long *
SLOT_ID, unsigned int FLAGS)
OBJ: should contain a ‘gnutls_pkcs11_obj_t’ type
PTR: will contain the CK_FUNCTION_LIST_PTR pointer (may be ‘NULL’ )
SESSION: will contain the CK_SESSION_HANDLE of the object
OHANDLE: will contain the CK_OBJECT_HANDLE of the object
SLOT_ID: the identifier of the slot (may be ‘NULL’ )
FLAGS: Or sequence of GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_* flags
Obtains the PKCS‘11’ session handles of an object. ‘session’ and
‘ohandle’ must be deinitialized by the caller. The returned
pointers are independent of the ‘obj’ lifetime.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success or a negative error
code on error.

5.3.7 Using a PKCS #11 token with TLS
-------------------------------------
It is possible to use a PKCS #11 token to a TLS session, as shown in
*note ex-pkcs11-client::. In addition the following functions can be
used to load PKCS #11 key and certificates by specifying a PKCS #11 URL
instead of a filename.
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const char * CAFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char * CERTFILE, const char * KEYFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE, const char * PASS, unsigned int FLAGS)’

5.3.8 Verifying certificates over PKCS #11
------------------------------------------
The PKCS #11 API can be used to allow all applications in the same
operating system to access shared cryptographic keys and certificates in
a uniform way, as in *note Figure 5.1: fig-pkcs11-vision. That way
applications could load their trusted certificate list, as well as user
certificates from a common PKCS #11 module. Such a provider is the
p11-kit trust storage module(1) and it provides access to the trusted
Root CA certificates in a system. That provides a more dynamic list of
Root CA certificates, as opposed to a static list in a file or
directory.
That store, allows for blacklisting of CAs or certificates, as well as
categorization of the Root CAs (Web verification, Code signing, etc.),
in addition to restricting their purpose via stapled extensions(2).
GnuTLS will utilize the p11-kit trust module as the default trust store
if configured to; i.e., if ’–with-default-trust-store-pkcs11=pkcs11:’ is
given to the configure script.

5.3.9 Invoking p11tool
----------------------
Program that allows operations on PKCS #11 smart cards and security
modules.
To use PKCS #11 tokens with GnuTLS the p11-kit configuration files need
to be setup. That is create a .module file in
/usr/local/share/p11-kit/modules with the contents ’module:
/path/to/pkcs11.so’. Alternatively the configuration file
/usr/local/etc/gnutls/pkcs11.conf has to exist and contain a number of
lines of the form ’load=/usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so’.
You can provide the PIN to be used for the PKCS #11 operations with the
environment variables GNUTLS_PIN and GNUTLS_SO_PIN.
p11tool help/usage (‘-?’)
.........................
The text printed is the same whether selected with the ‘help’ option
(‘--help’) or the ‘more-help’ option (‘--more-help’). ‘more-help’ will
print the usage text by passing it through a pager program. ‘more-help’
is disabled on platforms without a working ‘fork(2)’ function. The
‘PAGER’ environment variable is used to select the program, defaulting
to ‘more’. Both will exit with a status code of 0.

p11tool Examples
................
To view all tokens in your system use:
$ p11tool --list-tokens
To view all objects in a token use:
$ p11tool --login --list-all "pkcs11:TOKEN-URL"
To store a private key and a certificate in a token run:
$ p11tool --login --write "pkcs11:URL" --load-privkey key.pem \
--label "Mykey"
$ p11tool --login --write "pkcs11:URL" --load-certificate cert.pem \
--label "Mykey"
Note that some tokens require the same label to be used for the
certificate and its corresponding private key.
To generate an RSA private key inside the token use:
$ p11tool --login --generate-privkey rsa --bits 1024 --label "MyNewKey" \
--outfile MyNewKey.pub "pkcs11:TOKEN-URL"
The bits parameter in the above example is explicitly set because some
tokens only support limited choices in the bit length. The output file
is the corresponding public key. This key can be used to general a
certificate request with certtool.
certtool --generate-request --load-privkey "pkcs11:KEY-URL" \
--load-pubkey MyNewKey.pub --outfile request.pem

5.4 Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
=================================
In this section we present the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) support in
GnuTLS. Note that we recommend against using TPM with this API because
it is restricted to TPM 1.2. We recommend instead to use PKCS#11
wrappers for TPM such as CHAPS(1) or opencryptoki(2). These will allow
using the standard smart card and HSM functionality (see *note Smart
cards and HSMs::) for TPM keys.
There was a big hype when the TPM chip was introduced into computers.
Briefly it is a co-processor in your PC that allows it to perform
calculations independently of the main processor. This has good and bad
side-effects. In this section we focus on the good ones; these are the
fact that you can use the TPM chip to perform cryptographic operations
on keys stored in it, without accessing them. That is very similar to
the operation of a PKCS #11 smart card. The chip allows for storage and
usage of RSA keys, but has quite some operational differences from PKCS
#11 module, and thus require different handling. The basic TPM
operations supported and used by GnuTLS, are key generation and signing.
That support is currently limited to TPM 1.2.
The next sections assume that the TPM chip in the system is already
initialized and in a operational state. If not, ensure that the TPM
chip is enabled by your BIOS, that the ‘tcsd’ daemon is running, and
that TPM ownership is set (by running ‘tpm_takeownership’).
In GnuTLS the TPM functionality is available in ‘gnutls/tpm.h’.

File: gnutls.info, Node: Keys in TPM, Next: Key generation, Up: Trusted Platform Module
5.4.1 Keys in TPM
-----------------
The RSA keys in the TPM module may either be stored in a flash memory
within TPM or stored in a file in disk. In the former case the key can
provide operations as with PKCS #11 and is identified by a URL. The URL
is described in [*note TPMURI::] and is of the following form.
tpmkey:uuid=42309df8-d101-11e1-a89a-97bb33c23ad1;storage=user
It consists from a unique identifier of the key as well as the part of
the flash memory the key is stored at. The two options for the storage
field are ‘user’ and ‘system’. The user keys are typically only
available to the generating user and the system keys to all users. The
stored in TPM keys are called registered keys.
The keys that are stored in the disk are exported from the TPM but in an
encrypted form. To access them two passwords are required. The first
is the TPM Storage Root Key (SRK), and the other is a key-specific
password. Also those keys are identified by a URL of the form:
tpmkey:file=/path/to/file
When objects require a PIN to be accessed the same callbacks as with
PKCS #11 objects are expected (see *note Accessing objects that require
a PIN::). Note that the PIN function may be called multiple times to
unlock the SRK and the specific key in use. The label in the key
function will then be set to ‘SRK’ when unlocking the SRK key, or to
‘TPM’ when unlocking any other key.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Key generation, Next: Using keys, Prev: Keys in TPM, Up: Trusted Platform Module
5.4.2 Key generation
--------------------
All keys used by the TPM must be generated by the TPM. This can be done
using *note gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate::.
-- Function: int gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate (gnutls_pk_algorithm_t PK,
unsigned int BITS, const char * SRK_PASSWORD, const char *
KEY_PASSWORD, gnutls_tpmkey_fmt_t FORMAT,
gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t PUB_FORMAT, gnutls_datum_t * PRIVKEY,
gnutls_datum_t * PUBKEY, unsigned int FLAGS)
PK: the public key algorithm
BITS: the security bits
SRK_PASSWORD: a password to protect the exported key (optional)
KEY_PASSWORD: the password for the TPM (optional)
FORMAT: the format of the private key
PUB_FORMAT: the format of the public key
PRIVKEY: the generated key
PUBKEY: the corresponding public key (may be null)
FLAGS: should be a list of GNUTLS_TPM_* flags
This function will generate a private key in the TPM chip. The
private key will be generated within the chip and will be exported
in a wrapped with TPM’s master key form. Furthermore the wrapped
key can be protected with the provided ‘password’ .
Note that bits in TPM is quantized value. If the input value is
not one of the allowed values, then it will be quantized to one of
512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192 and 16384.
Allowed flags are:
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.0
‘INT *note gnutls_tpm_get_registered:: (gnutls_tpm_key_list_t * LIST)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_tpm_key_list_deinit:: (gnutls_tpm_key_list_t LIST)’
‘INT *note gnutls_tpm_key_list_get_url:: (gnutls_tpm_key_list_t LIST, unsigned int IDX, char ** URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
-- Function: int gnutls_tpm_privkey_delete (const char * URL, const
char * SRK_PASSWORD)
URL: the URL describing the key
SRK_PASSWORD: a password for the SRK key
This function will unregister the private key from the TPM chip.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.0

require any special structures. Moreover functions like *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2:: can access TPM URLs.
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_import_tpm_raw:: (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY, const gnutls_datum_t * FDATA, gnutls_tpmkey_fmt_t FORMAT, const char * SRK_PASSWORD, const char * KEY_PASSWORD, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_tpm_raw:: (gnutls_pubkey_t PKEY, const gnutls_datum_t * FDATA, gnutls_tpmkey_fmt_t FORMAT, const char * SRK_PASSWORD, unsigned int FLAGS)’
-- Function: int gnutls_privkey_import_tpm_url (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY,
const char * URL, const char * SRK_PASSWORD, const char *
KEY_PASSWORD, unsigned int FLAGS)
PKEY: The private key
URL: The URL of the TPM key to be imported
SRK_PASSWORD: The password for the SRK key (optional)
KEY_PASSWORD: A password for the key (optional)

6.1 Introduction
================
This chapter tries to explain the basic functionality of the current
GnuTLS library. Note that there may be additional functionality not
discussed here but included in the library. Checking the header files
in ‘/usr/include/gnutls/’ and the manpages is recommended.

6.1.1 General idea
------------------
A brief description of how GnuTLS sessions operate is shown at *note
Figure 6.1: fig-gnutls-design. This section will become more clear when
it is completely read. As shown in the figure, there is a read-only
global state that is initialized once by the global initialization
function. This global structure, among others, contains the memory
allocation functions used, structures needed for the ASN.1 parser and
depending on the system’s CPU, pointers to hardware accelerated
encryption functions. This structure is never modified by any GnuTLS
function, except for the deinitialization function which frees all
allocated memory and must be called after the program has permanently
finished using GnuTLS.
[image src="gnutls-internals.png" ]
Figure 6.1: High level design of GnuTLS.
The credentials structures are used by the authentication methods, such
as certificate authentication. They store certificates, privates keys,
and other information that is needed to prove the identity to the peer,
and/or verify the identity of the peer. The information stored in the
credentials structures is initialized once and then can be shared by
many TLS sessions.
A GnuTLS session contains all the required state and information to
handle one secure connection. The session communicates with the peers
using the provided functions of the transport layer. Every session has
a unique session ID shared with the peer.
Since TLS sessions can be resumed, servers need a database back-end to
hold the session’s parameters. Every GnuTLS session after a successful
handshake calls the appropriate back-end function (see *note resume::)
to store the newly negotiated session. The session database is examined
by the server just after having received the client hello(1), and if the
session ID sent by the client, matches a stored session, the stored
session will be retrieved, and the new session will be a resumed one,
and will share the same session ID with the previous one.
---------- Footnotes ----------
(1) The first message in a TLS handshake
File: gnutls.info, Node: Error handling, Next: Common types, Prev: General idea, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.2 Error handling
--------------------
There two types of GnuTLS functions. The first type returns a boolean
value, true (non-zero) or false (zero) value; these functions are
defined to return an unsigned integer type. The other type returns a
signed integer type with zero (or a positive number) indicating success
and a negative value indicating failure. For the latter type it is
recommended to check for errors as following.
ret = gnutls_function();
if (ret < 0) {
return -1;
}
The above example checks for a failure condition rather than for
explicit success (e.g., equality to zero). That has the advantage that
future extensions of the API can be extended to provide additional
information via positive returned values (see for example *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file::).
For certain operations such as TLS handshake and TLS packet receive
there is the notion of fatal and non-fatal error codes. Fatal errors
terminate the TLS session immediately and further sends and receives
will be disallowed. Such an example is ‘GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED’.
Non-fatal errors may warn about something, i.e., a warning alert was
received, or indicate the some action has to be taken. This is the case
with the error code ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ returned by *note
gnutls_record_recv::. This error code indicates that the server
requests a re-handshake. The client may ignore this request, or may
reply with an alert. You can test if an error code is a fatal one by
using the *note gnutls_error_is_fatal::. All errors can be converted to
a descriptive string using *note gnutls_strerror::.
If any non fatal errors, that require an action, are to be returned by a
function, these error codes will be documented in the function’s
reference. For example the error codes
‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ and ‘GNUTLS_E_FATAL_ALERT_RECEIVED’
that may returned when receiving data, should be handled by notifying
the user of the alert (as explained in *note Handling alerts::). See
*note Error codes::, for a description of the available error codes.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Common types, Next: Debugging and auditing, Prev: Error handling, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.3 Common types
------------------
All strings that are to provided as input to GnuTLS functions should be
in UTF-8 unless otherwise specified. Output strings are also in UTF-8
format unless otherwise specified. When functions take as input
passwords, they will normalize them using [*note RFC7613::] rules (since
GnuTLS 3.5.7).
When data of a fixed size are provided to GnuTLS functions then the
helper structure ‘gnutls_datum_t’ is often used. Its definition is
shown below.
typedef struct
{
unsigned char *data;
unsigned int size;
} gnutls_datum_t;
In functions where this structure is a returned type, if the function
succeeds, it is expected from the caller to use ‘gnutls_free()’ to
deinitialize the data element after use, unless otherwise specified. If
the function fails, the contents of the ‘gnutls_datum_t’ should be
considered undefined and must not be deinitialized.
Other functions that require data for scattered read use a structure
similar to ‘struct iovec’ typically used by ‘readv’. It is shown below.
typedef struct
{
void *iov_base; /* Starting address */
size_t iov_len; /* Number of bytes to transfer */
} giovec_t;
File: gnutls.info, Node: Debugging and auditing, Next: Thread safety, Prev: Common types, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.4 Debugging and auditing
----------------------------
In many cases things may not go as expected and further information, to
assist debugging, from GnuTLS is desired. Those are the cases where the
*note gnutls_global_set_log_level:: and *note
gnutls_global_set_log_function:: are to be used. Those will print
verbose information on the GnuTLS functions internal flow.
‘VOID *note gnutls_global_set_log_level:: (int LEVEL)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_global_set_log_function:: (gnutls_log_func LOG_FUNC)’
Alternatively the environment variable ‘GNUTLS_DEBUG_LEVEL’ can be set
to a logging level and GnuTLS will output debugging output to standard
error. Other available environment variables are shown in *note Table
6.1: tab:environment.
Variable Purpose
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
‘GNUTLS_DEBUG_LEVEL’ When set to a numeric value, it sets the default
debugging level for GnuTLS applications.
‘SSLKEYLOGFILE’ When set to a filename, GnuTLS will append to it
the session keys in the NSS Key Log format.
That format can be read by wireshark and will
allow decryption of the session for debugging.
‘GNUTLS_CPUID_OVERRIDE’That environment variable can be used to
explicitly enable/disable the use of certain CPU
capabilities. Note that CPU detection cannot be
overridden, i.e., VIA options cannot be enabled
on an Intel CPU. The currently available options
are:
• 0x1: Disable all run-time detected
optimizations
• 0x2: Enable AES-NI
• 0x4: Enable SSSE3
• 0x8: Enable PCLMUL
• 0x10: Enable AVX
• 0x20: Enable SHA_NI
• 0x100000: Enable VIA padlock
• 0x200000: Enable VIA PHE
• 0x400000: Enable VIA PHE SHA512
‘GNUTLS_FORCE_FIPS_MODE’In setups where GnuTLS is compiled with support
for FIPS140-2 (see *note FIPS140-2 mode::) if
set to one it will force the FIPS mode
enablement.
Table 6.1: Environment variables used by the library.
When debugging is not required, important issues, such as detected
attacks on the protocol still need to be logged. This is provided by
the logging function set by *note
gnutls_global_set_audit_log_function::. The provided function will
receive an message and the corresponding TLS session. The session
information might be used to derive IP addresses or other information
about the peer involved.
-- Function: void gnutls_global_set_audit_log_function
(gnutls_audit_log_func LOG_FUNC)
LOG_FUNC: it is the audit log function
This is the function to set the audit logging function. This is a
function to report important issues, such as possible attacks in
the protocol. This is different from
‘gnutls_global_set_log_function()’ because it will report also
session-specific events. The session parameter will be null if
there is no corresponding TLS session.
‘gnutls_audit_log_func’ is of the form, void
(*gnutls_audit_log_func)( gnutls_session_t, const char*);
*Since:* 3.0
File: gnutls.info, Node: Thread safety, Next: Running in a sandbox, Prev: Debugging and auditing, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.5 Thread safety
-------------------
The GnuTLS library is thread safe by design, meaning that objects of the
library such as TLS sessions, can be safely divided across threads as
long as a single thread accesses a single object. This is sufficient to
support a server which handles several sessions per thread. Read-only
access to objects, for example the credentials holding structures, is
also thread-safe.
A ‘gnutls_session_t’ object could also be shared by two threads, one
sending, the other receiving. However, care must be taken on the
following use cases:
• The re-handshake process in TLS 1.2 or earlier must be handled only
in a single thread and no other thread may be performing any
operation.
• The flag ‘GNUTLS_AUTO_REAUTH’ cannot be used safely in this mode of
operation.
• Any other operation which may send or receive data, like key update
(c.f., *note gnutls_session_key_update::), must not be performed
while threads are receiving or writing.
• The termination of a session should be handled, either by a single
thread being active, or by the sender thread using *note
gnutls_bye:: with ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ and the receiving thread waiting
for a return value of zero (or timeout on certain servers which do
not respond).
• The functions *note gnutls_transport_set_errno:: and *note
gnutls_record_get_direction:: should not be relied during parallel
operation.
For several aspects of the library (e.g., the random generator, PKCS#11
operations), the library may utilize mutex locks (e.g., pthreads on
GNU/Linux and CriticalSection on Windows) which are transparently setup
on library initialization. Prior to version 3.3.0 these were setup by
explicitly calling *note gnutls_global_init::.(1)
Note that, on Glibc systems, unless the application is explicitly linked
with the libpthread library, no mutex locks are used and setup by
GnuTLS. It will use the Glibc mutex stubs.
---------- Footnotes ----------
(1) On special systems you could manually specify the locking system
using the function *note gnutls_global_set_mutex:: before calling any
other GnuTLS function. Setting mutexes manually is not recommended.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Running in a sandbox, Next: Sessions and fork, Prev: Thread safety, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.6 Running in a sandbox
--------------------------
Given that TLS protocol handling as well as X.509 certificate parsing
are complicated processes involving several thousands lines of code, it
is often desirable (and recommended) to run the TLS session handling in
a sandbox like seccomp. That has to be allowed by the overall software
design, but if available, it adds an additional layer of protection by
preventing parsing errors from becoming vessels for further security
issues such as code execution.
GnuTLS requires the following system calls to be available for its
proper operation.
• nanosleep
• time
• gettimeofday
• clock_gettime
• getrusage
• getpid
• send
• recv
• sendmsg
• read (to read from /dev/urandom)
• getrandom (this is Linux-kernel specific)
• poll
As well as any calls needed for memory allocation to work. Note
however, that GnuTLS depends on libc for the system calls, and there is
no guarantee that libc will call the expected system call. For that it
is recommended to test your program in all the targeted platforms when
filters like seccomp are in place.
An example with a seccomp filter from GnuTLS’ test suite is at:
<https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/blob/master/tests/seccomp.c>.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Sessions and fork, Next: Callback functions, Prev: Running in a sandbox, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.7 Sessions and fork
-----------------------
A ‘gnutls_session_t’ object can be shared by two processes after a fork,
one sending, the other receiving. In that case rehandshakes, cannot and
must not be performed. As with threads, the termination of a session
should be handled by the sender process using *note gnutls_bye:: with
‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ and the receiving process waiting for a return value of
zero.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Callback functions, Prev: Sessions and fork, Up: Introduction to the library
6.1.8 Callback functions
------------------------
There are several cases where GnuTLS may need out of band input from
your program. This is now implemented using some callback functions,
which your program is expected to register.
An example of this type of functions are the push and pull callbacks
which are used to specify the functions that will retrieve and send data
to the transport layer.
‘VOID *note gnutls_transport_set_push_function:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_push_func PUSH_FUNC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_transport_set_pull_function:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_pull_func PULL_FUNC)’
Other callback functions may require more complicated input and data to
be allocated. Such an example is *note
gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function::. All callbacks should
allocate and free memory using ‘gnutls_malloc’ and ‘gnutls_free’.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Preparation, Next: Session initialization, Prev: Introduction to the library, Up: How to use GnuTLS in applications
6.2 Preparation
===============
To use GnuTLS, you have to perform some changes to your sources and your
build system. The necessary changes are explained in the following
subsections.
* Menu:
* Headers::
* Initialization::
* Version check::
* Building the source::
File: gnutls.info, Node: Headers, Next: Initialization, Up: Preparation
6.2.1 Headers
-------------
All the data types and functions of the GnuTLS library are defined in
the header file ‘gnutls/gnutls.h’. This must be included in all
programs that make use of the GnuTLS library.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Initialization, Next: Version check, Prev: Headers, Up: Preparation
6.2.2 Initialization
--------------------
The GnuTLS library is initialized on load; prior to 3.3.0 was
initialized by calling *note gnutls_global_init::(1). *note
gnutls_global_init:: in versions after 3.3.0 is thread-safe (see *note
Thread safety::).
The initialization typically enables CPU-specific acceleration, performs
any required precalculations needed, opens any required system devices
(e.g., /dev/urandom on Linux) and initializes subsystems that could be
used later.
The resources allocated by the initialization process will be released
on library deinitialization.
Note that on certain systems file descriptors may be kept open by GnuTLS
(e.g. /dev/urandom) on library load. Applications closing all unknown
file descriptors must immediately call *note gnutls_global_init::, after
that, to ensure they don’t disrupt GnuTLS’ operation.
---------- Footnotes ----------
(1) The original behavior of requiring explicit initialization can
obtained by setting the GNUTLS_NO_IMPLICIT_INIT environment variable to
1, or by using the macro GNUTLS_SKIP_GLOBAL_INIT in a global section of
your program –the latter works in systems with support for weak symbols
only.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Version check, Next: Building the source, Prev: Initialization, Up: Preparation
6.2.3 Version check
-------------------
It is often desirable to check that the version of ‘gnutls’ used is
indeed one which fits all requirements. Even with binary compatibility
new features may have been introduced but due to problem with the
dynamic linker an old version is actually used. So you may want to
check that the version is okay right after program start-up. See the
function *note gnutls_check_version::.
On the other hand, it is often desirable to support more than one
versions of the library. In that case you could utilize compile-time
feature checks using the ‘GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER’ macro. For example, to
conditionally add code for GnuTLS 3.2.1 or later, you may use:
#if GNUTLS_VERSION_NUMBER >= 0x030201
...
#endif
File: gnutls.info, Node: Building the source, Prev: Version check, Up: Preparation
6.2.4 Building the source
-------------------------
If you want to compile a source file including the ‘gnutls/gnutls.h’
header file, you must make sure that the compiler can find it in the
directory hierarchy. This is accomplished by adding the path to the
directory in which the header file is located to the compilers include
file search path (via the ‘-I’ option).
However, the path to the include file is determined at the time the
source is configured. To solve this problem, the library uses the
external package ‘pkg-config’ that knows the path to the include file
and other configuration options. The options that need to be added to
the compiler invocation at compile time are output by the ‘--cflags’
option to ‘pkg-config gnutls’. The following example shows how it can
be used at the command line:
gcc -c foo.c `pkg-config gnutls --cflags`
Adding the output of ‘pkg-config gnutls --cflags’ to the compilers
command line will ensure that the compiler can find the
‘gnutls/gnutls.h’ header file.
A similar problem occurs when linking the program with the library.
Again, the compiler has to find the library files. For this to work,
the path to the library files has to be added to the library search path
(via the ‘-L’ option). For this, the option ‘--libs’ to ‘pkg-config
gnutls’ can be used. For convenience, this option also outputs all
other options that are required to link the program with the library
(for instance, the ‘-ltasn1’ option). The example shows how to link
‘foo.o’ with the library to a program ‘foo’.
gcc -o foo foo.o `pkg-config gnutls --libs`
Of course you can also combine both examples to a single command by
specifying both options to ‘pkg-config’:
gcc -o foo foo.c `pkg-config gnutls --cflags --libs`
When a program uses the GNU autoconf system, then the following line or
similar can be used to detect the presence of GnuTLS.
PKG_CHECK_MODULES([LIBGNUTLS], [gnutls >= 3.3.0])
AC_SUBST([LIBGNUTLS_CFLAGS])
AC_SUBST([LIBGNUTLS_LIBS])
File: gnutls.info, Node: Session initialization, Next: Associating the credentials, Prev: Preparation, Up: How to use GnuTLS in applications
6.3 Session initialization
==========================
In the previous sections we have discussed the global initialization
required for GnuTLS as well as the initialization required for each
authentication method’s credentials (see *note Authentication::). In
this section we elaborate on the TLS or DTLS session initiation. Each
session is initialized using *note gnutls_init:: which among others is
used to specify the type of the connection (server or client), and the
underlying protocol type, i.e., datagram (UDP) or reliable (TCP).
-- Function: int gnutls_init (gnutls_session_t * SESSION, unsigned int
FLAGS)
SESSION: is a pointer to a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FLAGS: indicate if this session is to be used for server or client.
This function initializes the provided session. Every session must
be initialized before use, and must be deinitialized after used by
calling ‘gnutls_deinit()’ .
‘flags’ can be any combination of flags from ‘gnutls_init_flags_t’
.
Note that since version 3.1.2 this function enables some common TLS
extensions such as session tickets and OCSP certificate status
request in client side by default. To prevent that use the
‘GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS’ flag.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
‘GNUTLS_SERVER’
Connection end is a server.
‘GNUTLS_CLIENT’
Connection end is a client.
‘GNUTLS_DATAGRAM’
Connection is datagram oriented (DTLS). Since 3.0.0.
‘GNUTLS_NONBLOCK’
Connection should not block. Since 3.0.0.
‘GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS’
Do not enable any TLS extensions by default (since 3.1.2). As TLS
1.2 and later require extensions this option is considered obsolete
and should not be used.
‘GNUTLS_NO_REPLAY_PROTECTION’
Disable any replay protection in DTLS. This must only be used if
replay protection is achieved using other means. Since 3.2.2.
‘GNUTLS_NO_SIGNAL’
In systems where SIGPIPE is delivered on send, it will be disabled.
That flag has effect in systems which support the MSG_NOSIGNAL
sockets flag (since 3.4.2).
‘GNUTLS_ALLOW_ID_CHANGE’
Allow the peer to replace its certificate, or change its ID during
a rehandshake. This change is often used in attacks and thus
prohibited by default. Since 3.5.0.
‘GNUTLS_ENABLE_FALSE_START’
Enable the TLS false start on client side if the negotiated
ciphersuites allow it. This will enable sending data prior to the
handshake being complete, and may introduce a risk of crypto
failure when combined with certain key exchanged; for that GnuTLS
may not enable that option in ciphersuites that are known to be not
safe for false start. Since 3.5.0.
‘GNUTLS_FORCE_CLIENT_CERT’
When in client side and only a single cert is specified, send that
certificate irrespective of the issuers expected by the server.
Since 3.5.0.
‘GNUTLS_NO_TICKETS’
Flag to indicate that the session should not use resumption with
session tickets.
‘GNUTLS_KEY_SHARE_TOP’
Generate key share for the first group which is enabled. For
example x25519. This option is the most performant for client
(less CPU spent generating keys), but if the server doesn’t support
the advertized option it may result to more roundtrips needed to
discover the server’s choice.
‘GNUTLS_KEY_SHARE_TOP2’
Generate key shares for the top-2 different groups which are
enabled. For example (ECDH + x25519). This is the default.
‘GNUTLS_KEY_SHARE_TOP3’
Generate key shares for the top-3 different groups which are
enabled. That is, as each group is associated with a key type (EC,
finite field, x25519), generate three keys using ‘GNUTLS_PK_DH’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PK_EC’ , ‘GNUTLS_PK_ECDH_X25519’ if all of them are
enabled.
‘GNUTLS_POST_HANDSHAKE_AUTH’
Enable post handshake authentication for server and client. When
set and a server requests authentication after handshake
‘GNUTLS_E_REAUTH_REQUEST’ will be returned by
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ . A client should then call
‘gnutls_reauth()’ to re-authenticate.
‘GNUTLS_NO_AUTO_REKEY’
Disable auto-rekeying under TLS1.3. If this option is not
specified gnutls will force a rekey after 2^24 records have been
sent.
‘GNUTLS_SAFE_PADDING_CHECK’
Flag to indicate that the TLS 1.3 padding check will be done in a
safe way which doesn’t leak the pad size based on GnuTLS processing
time. This is of use to applications which hide the length of
transferred data via the TLS1.3 padding mechanism and are already
taking steps to hide the data processing time. This comes at a
performance penalty.
‘GNUTLS_ENABLE_EARLY_START’
Under TLS1.3 allow the server to return earlier than the full
handshake finish; similarly to false start the handshake will be
completed once data are received by the client, while the server is
able to transmit sooner. This is not enabled by default as it
could break certain existing server assumptions and use-cases.
Since 3.6.4.
‘GNUTLS_ENABLE_RAWPK’
Allows raw public-keys to be negotiated during the handshake.
Since 3.6.6.
‘GNUTLS_AUTO_REAUTH’
Enable transparent re-authentication in client side when the server
requests to. That is, reauthentication is handled within
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ , and the ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_REAUTH_REQUEST’ are not returned. This must be enabled
with ‘GNUTLS_POST_HANDSHAKE_AUTH’ for TLS1.3. Enabling this flag
requires to restore interrupted calls to ‘gnutls_record_recv()’
based on the output of ‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ , since
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ could be interrupted when sending when this
flag is enabled. Note this flag may not be used if you are using
the same session for sending and receiving in different threads.
‘GNUTLS_ENABLE_EARLY_DATA’
Under TLS1.3 allow the server to receive early data sent as part of
the initial ClientHello (0-RTT). This can also be used to
explicitly indicate that the client will send early data. This is
not enabled by default as early data has weaker security properties
than other data. Since 3.6.5.
‘GNUTLS_NO_AUTO_SEND_TICKET’
Under TLS1.3 disable auto-sending of session tickets during the
handshake.
‘GNUTLS_NO_END_OF_EARLY_DATA’
Under TLS1.3 suppress sending EndOfEarlyData message. Since 3.7.2.
‘GNUTLS_NO_TICKETS_TLS12’
Flag to indicate that the session should not use resumption with
session tickets. This flag only has effect if TLS 1.2 is used.
Figure 6.2: The ‘gnutls_init_flags_t’ enumeration.
After the session initialization details on the allowed ciphersuites and
protocol versions should be set using the priority functions such as
*note gnutls_priority_set:: and *note gnutls_priority_set_direct::. We
elaborate on them in *note Priority Strings::. The credentials used for
the key exchange method, such as certificates or usernames and passwords
should also be associated with the session current session using *note
gnutls_credentials_set::.
-- Function: int gnutls_credentials_set (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_credentials_type_t TYPE, void * CRED)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
TYPE: is the type of the credentials
CRED: the credentials to set
Sets the needed credentials for the specified type. E.g.
username, password - or public and private keys etc. The ‘cred’
parameter is a structure that depends on the specified type and on
the current session (client or server).
In order to minimize memory usage, and share credentials between
several threads gnutls keeps a pointer to cred, and not the whole
cred structure. Thus you will have to keep the structure allocated
until you call ‘gnutls_deinit()’ .
For ‘GNUTLS_CRD_ANON’ , ‘cred’ should be
‘gnutls_anon_client_credentials_t’ in case of a client. In case of
a server it should be ‘gnutls_anon_server_credentials_t’ .
For ‘GNUTLS_CRD_SRP’ , ‘cred’ should be
‘gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t’ in case of a client, and
‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ , in case of a server.
For ‘GNUTLS_CRD_CERTIFICATE’ , ‘cred’ should be
‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.

Each authentication method is associated with a key exchange method, and
a credentials type. The contents of the credentials is
method-dependent, e.g. certificates for certificate authentication and
should be initialized and associated with a session (see *note
gnutls_credentials_set::). A mapping of the key exchange methods with
the credential types is shown in *note Table 6.2: tab:key-exchange-cred.

6.4.1 Certificates
------------------
Server certificate authentication
.................................
When using certificates the server is required to have at least one
certificate and private key pair. Clients may not hold such a pair, but
a server could require it. In this section we discuss general issues
applying to both client and server certificates. The next section will
elaborate on issues arising from client authentication only.
In order to use certificate credentials one must first initialize a
credentials structure of type ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’. After
use this structure must be freed. This can be done with the following
functions.
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_allocate_credentials:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t * RES)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_free_credentials:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC)’
After the credentials structures are initialized, the certificate and
key pair must be loaded. This occurs before any TLS session is
initialized, and the same structures are reused for multiple sessions.
Depending on the certificate type different loading functions are
available, as shown below. For X.509 certificates, the functions will
accept and use a certificate chain that leads to a trusted authority.
The certificate chain must be ordered in such way that every certificate
certifies the one before it. The trusted authority’s certificate need
not to be included since the peer should possess it already.
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char * CERTFILE, const char * KEYFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE, const char * PASS, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_mem2:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const gnutls_datum_t * CERT, const gnutls_datum_t * KEY, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE, const char * PASS, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, gnutls_x509_crt_t * CERT_LIST, int CERT_LIST_SIZE, gnutls_x509_privkey_t KEY)’
It is recommended to use the higher level functions such as *note
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2:: which accept not only file names
but URLs that specify objects stored in token, or system certificates
and keys (see *note Application-specific keys::). For these cases,
another important function is *note
gnutls_certificate_set_pin_function::, that allows setting a callback
function to retrieve a PIN if the input keys are protected by PIN.
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_pin_function
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_pin_callback_t
FN, void * USERDATA)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
FN: A PIN callback
USERDATA: Data to be passed in the callback
This function will set a callback function to be used when required
to access a protected object. This function overrides any other
global PIN functions.
Note that this function must be called right after initialization
to have effect.
*Since:* 3.1.0
If the imported keys and certificates need to be accessed before any TLS
session is established, it is convenient to use *note
gnutls_certificate_set_key:: in combination with *note
gnutls_pcert_import_x509_raw:: and *note
gnutls_privkey_import_x509_raw::.
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_set_key
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char ** NAMES,
int NAMES_SIZE, gnutls_pcert_st * PCERT_LIST, int
PCERT_LIST_SIZE, gnutls_privkey_t KEY)
RES: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
NAMES: is an array of DNS names belonging to the public-key (NULL
if none)
NAMES_SIZE: holds the size of the names list
PCERT_LIST: contains a certificate list (chain) or raw public-key
PCERT_LIST_SIZE: holds the size of the certificate list
KEY: is a ‘gnutls_privkey_t’ key corresponding to the first
public-key in pcert_list
This function sets a public/private key pair in the
gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type. The given public key may be
encapsulated in a certificate or can be given as a raw key. This
function may be called more than once, in case multiple key pairs
exist for the server. For clients that want to send more than
their own end- entity certificate (e.g., also an intermediate CA
cert), the full certificate chain must be provided in ‘pcert_list’
.
Note that the ‘key’ will become part of the credentials structure
and must not be deallocated. It will be automatically deallocated
when the ‘res’ structure is deinitialized.
If this function fails, the ‘res’ structure is at an undefined
state and it must not be reused to load other keys or certificates.
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used for other functions to
refer to the added key-pair.
Since GnuTLS 3.6.6 this function also handles raw public keys.
*Returns:* On success this functions returns zero, and otherwise a
negative value on error (see above for modifying that behavior).
*Since:* 3.0
If multiple certificates are used with the functions above each client’s
request will be served with the certificate that matches the requested
name (see *note Server name indication::).
As an alternative to loading from files or buffers, a callback may be
used for the server or the client to specify the certificate and the key
at the handshake time. In that case a certificate should be selected
according the peer’s signature algorithm preferences. To get those
preferences use *note gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested::. Both
functions are shown below.
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function * FUNC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function2 * FUNC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function3:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function3 * FUNC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_sign_algorithm_get_requested:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t INDX, gnutls_sign_algorithm_t * ALGO)’
The functions above do not handle the requested server name
automatically. A server would need to check the name requested by the
client using *note gnutls_server_name_get::, and serve the appropriate
certificate. Note that some of these functions require the
‘gnutls_pcert_st’ structure to be filled in. Helper functions to fill
in the structure are listed below.
typedef struct gnutls_pcert_st
{
gnutls_pubkey_t pubkey;
gnutls_datum_t cert;
gnutls_certificate_type_t type;
} gnutls_pcert_st;
‘INT *note gnutls_pcert_import_x509:: (gnutls_pcert_st * PCERT, gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pcert_import_x509_raw:: (gnutls_pcert_st * PCERT, const gnutls_datum_t * CERT, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pcert_deinit:: (gnutls_pcert_st * PCERT)’
In a handshake, the negotiated cipher suite depends on the certificate’s
parameters, so some key exchange methods might not be available with all
certificates. GnuTLS will disable ciphersuites that are not compatible
with the key, or the enabled authentication methods. For example keys
marked as sign-only, will not be able to access the plain RSA
ciphersuites, that require decryption. It is not recommended to use RSA
keys for both signing and encryption. If possible use a different key
for the ‘DHE-RSA’ which uses signing and ‘RSA’ that requires decryption.
All the key exchange methods shown in *note Table 4.1: tab:key-exchange.
are available in certificate authentication.
Client certificate authentication
.................................
If a certificate is to be requested from the client during the
handshake, the server will send a certificate request message. This
behavior is controlled by *note gnutls_certificate_server_set_request::.
The request contains a list of the by the server accepted certificate
signers. This list is constructed using the trusted certificate
authorities of the server. In cases where the server supports a large
number of certificate authorities it makes sense not to advertise all of
the names to save bandwidth. That can be controlled using the function
*note gnutls_certificate_send_x509_rdn_sequence::. This however will
have the side-effect of not restricting the client to certificates
signed by server’s acceptable signers.
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_server_set_request
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_certificate_request_t REQ)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
REQ: is one of GNUTLS_CERT_REQUEST, GNUTLS_CERT_REQUIRE,
GNUTLS_CERT_IGNORE
This function specifies if we (in case of a server) are going to
send a certificate request message to the client. If ‘req’ is
GNUTLS_CERT_REQUIRE then the server will return the
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_FOUND’ error if the peer does not provide
a certificate. If you do not call this function then the client
will not be asked to send a certificate. Invoking the function
with ‘req’ GNUTLS_CERT_IGNORE has the same effect.
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_send_x509_rdn_sequence
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, int STATUS)
SESSION: a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
STATUS: is 0 or 1
If status is non zero, this function will order gnutls not to send
the rdnSequence in the certificate request message. That is the
server will not advertise its trusted CAs to the peer. If status
is zero then the default behaviour will take effect, which is to
advertise the server’s trusted CAs.
This function has no effect in clients, and in authentication
methods other than certificate with X.509 certificates.
On the client side, it needs to set its certificates on the credentials
structure, similarly to server side from a file, or via a callback.
Once the certificates are available in the credentials structure, the
client will send them if during the handshake the server requests a
certificate signed by the issuer of its CA.
In the case a single certificate is available and the server does not
specify a signer’s list, then that certificate is always sent. It is,
however possible, to send a certificate even when the advertised CA list
by the server contains CAs other than its signer. That can be achieved
using the ‘GNUTLS_FORCE_CLIENT_CERT’ flag in *note gnutls_init::.
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char * CERTFILE, const char * KEYFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_simple_pkcs12_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char * PKCS12FILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE, const char * PASSWORD)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function2 * FUNC)’
Client or server certificate verification
.........................................
Certificate verification is possible by loading the trusted authorities
into the credentials structure by using the following functions,
applicable to X.509 certificates. In modern systems it is recommended
to utilize *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust:: which will
load the trusted authorities from the system store.
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_set_x509_system_trust
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
This function adds the system’s default trusted CAs in order to
verify client or server certificates.
In the case the system is currently unsupported
‘GNUTLS_E_UNIMPLEMENTED_FEATURE’ is returned.
*Returns:* the number of certificates processed or a negative error
code on error.
*Since:* 3.0.20
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const char * CAFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_x509_trust_dir:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const char * CA_DIR, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t TYPE)’
The peer’s certificate will be automatically verified if *note
gnutls_session_set_verify_cert:: is called prior to handshake.
Alternatively, one must set a callback function during the handshake
using *note gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function::, which will verify
the peer’s certificate once received. The verification should happen
using *note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3:: within the callback. It
will verify the certificate’s signature and the owner of the
certificate. That will provide a brief verification output. If a
detailed output is required one should call *note
gnutls_certificate_get_peers:: to obtain the raw certificate of the peer
and verify it using the functions discussed in *note X.509
certificates::.
In both the automatic and the manual cases, the verification status
returned can be printed using *note
gnutls_certificate_verification_status_print::.
-- Function: void gnutls_session_set_verify_cert (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
HOSTNAME: is the expected name of the peer; may be ‘NULL’
FLAGS: flags for certificate verification –
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’
This function instructs GnuTLS to verify the peer’s certificate
using the provided hostname. If the verification fails the
handshake will also fail with
‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_VERIFICATION_ERROR’ . In that case the
verification result can be obtained using
‘gnutls_session_get_verify_cert_status()’ .
The ‘hostname’ pointer provided must remain valid for the lifetime
of the session. More precisely it should be available during any
subsequent handshakes. If no hostname is provided, no hostname
verification will be performed. For a more advanced verification
function check ‘gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2()’ .
If ‘flags’ is provided which contain a profile, this function
should be called after any session priority setting functions.
The ‘gnutls_session_set_verify_cert()’ function is intended to be
used by TLS clients to verify the server’s certificate.
*Since:* 3.4.6
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, unsigned int * STATUS)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, gnutls_certificate_verify_function * FUNC)’
Note that when using raw public-keys verification will not work because
there is no corresponding certificate body belonging to the raw key that
can be verified. In that case the *note
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers:: family of functions will return a
GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST error code. For authenticating raw public-keys
one must use an out-of-band mechanism, e.g. by comparing hashes or
using trust on first use (see *note Verifying a certificate using trust
on first use authentication::).

6.4.2 Raw public-keys
---------------------
As of version 3.6.6 GnuTLS supports *note Raw public-keys::. With raw
public-keys only the public-key part (that is normally embedded in a
certificate) is transmitted to the peer. In order to load a raw
public-key and its corresponding private key in a credentials structure
one can use the following functions.
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_key:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char ** NAMES, int NAMES_SIZE, gnutls_pcert_st * PCERT_LIST, int PCERT_LIST_SIZE, gnutls_privkey_t KEY)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_rawpk_key_mem:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const gnutls_datum_t* SPKI, const gnutls_datum_t* PKEY, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, const char* PASS, unsigned int KEY_USAGE, const char ** NAMES, unsigned int NAMES_LENGTH, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_rawpk_key_file:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED, const char* RAWPKFILE, const char* PRIVKEYFILE, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, const char * PASS, unsigned int KEY_USAGE, const char ** NAMES, unsigned int NAMES_LENGTH, unsigned int PRIVKEY_FLAGS, unsigned int PKCS11_FLAGS)’

6.4.3 SRP
---------
The initialization functions in SRP credentials differ between client
and server. Clients supporting SRP should set the username and password
prior to connection, to the credentials structure. Alternatively *note
gnutls_srp_set_client_credentials_function:: may be used instead, to
specify a callback function that should return the SRP username and
password. The callback is called once during the TLS handshake.
‘INT *note gnutls_srp_allocate_server_credentials:: (gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t * SC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_srp_allocate_client_credentials:: (gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t * SC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_srp_free_server_credentials:: (gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t SC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_srp_free_client_credentials:: (gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t SC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_srp_set_client_credentials:: (gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t RES, const char * USERNAME, const char * PASSWORD)’
-- Function: void gnutls_srp_set_client_credentials_function
(gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the
username and password for client SRP authentication. The
callback’s function form is:
int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t, char** username, char**password);
The ‘username’ and ‘password’ must be allocated using
‘gnutls_malloc()’ .
The ‘username’ should be an ASCII string or UTF-8 string. In case
of a UTF-8 string it is recommended to be following the PRECIS
framework for usernames (rfc8265). The password can be in ASCII
format, or normalized using ‘gnutls_utf8_password_normalize()’ .
The callback function will be called once per handshake before the
initial hello message is sent.
The callback should not return a negative error code the second
time called, since the handshake procedure will be aborted.
The callback function should return 0 on success. -1 indicates an
error.
In server side the default behavior of GnuTLS is to read the usernames
and SRP verifiers from password files. These password file format is
compatible the with the _Stanford srp libraries_ format. If a different
password file format is to be used, then *note
gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function:: should be called, to set an
appropriate callback.
-- Function: int gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_file
(gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t RES, const char *
PASSWORD_FILE, const char * PASSWORD_CONF_FILE)
RES: is a ‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type.
PASSWORD_FILE: is the SRP password file (tpasswd)
PASSWORD_CONF_FILE: is the SRP password conf file (tpasswd.conf)
This function sets the password files, in a
‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type. Those password files hold
usernames and verifiers and will be used for SRP authentication.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or an
error code.
-- Function: void gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function
(gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_srp_server_credentials_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the user’s
SRP credentials. The callback’s function form is:
int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t, const char* username,
gnutls_datum_t *salt, gnutls_datum_t *verifier, gnutls_datum_t
*generator, gnutls_datum_t *prime);
‘username’ contains the actual username. The ‘salt’ , ‘verifier’ ,
‘generator’ and ‘prime’ must be filled in using the
‘gnutls_malloc()’ . For convenience ‘prime’ and ‘generator’ may
also be one of the static parameters defined in gnutls.h.
Initially, the data field is NULL in every ‘gnutls_datum_t’
structure that the callback has to fill in. When the callback is
done GnuTLS deallocates all of those buffers which are non-NULL,
regardless of the return value.
In order to prevent attackers from guessing valid usernames, if a
user does not exist, g and n values should be filled in using a
random user’s parameters. In that case the callback must return
the special value (1). See ‘gnutls_srp_set_server_fake_salt_seed’
too. If this is not required for your application, return a
negative number from the callback to abort the handshake.
The callback function will only be called once per handshake. The
callback function should return 0 on success, while -1 indicates an
error.

6.4.4 PSK
---------
The initialization functions in PSK credentials differ between client
and server.
‘INT *note gnutls_psk_allocate_server_credentials:: (gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t * SC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_psk_allocate_client_credentials:: (gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t * SC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_psk_free_server_credentials:: (gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t SC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_psk_free_client_credentials:: (gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t SC)’
Clients supporting PSK should supply the username and key before a TLS
session is established. Alternatively *note
gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials_function:: can be used to specify a
callback function. This has the advantage that the callback will be
called only if PSK has been negotiated.
‘INT *note gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials:: (gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t RES, const char * USERNAME, const gnutls_datum_t * KEY, gnutls_psk_key_flags FLAGS)’
-- Function: void gnutls_psk_set_client_credentials_function
(gnutls_psk_client_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_psk_client_credentials_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the
username and password for client PSK authentication. The
callback’s function form is: int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t,
char** username, gnutls_datum_t* key);
The ‘username’ and ‘key’ ->data must be allocated using
‘gnutls_malloc()’ . The ‘username’ should be an ASCII string or
UTF-8 string. In case of a UTF-8 string it is recommended to be
following the PRECIS framework for usernames (rfc8265).
The callback function will be called once per handshake.
The callback function should return 0 on success. -1 indicates an
error.
In server side the default behavior of GnuTLS is to read the usernames
and PSK keys from a password file. The password file should contain
usernames and keys in hexadecimal format. The name of the password file
can be stored to the credentials structure by calling *note
gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_file::. If a different password file
format is to be used, then a callback should be set instead by *note
gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_function::.
The server can help the client chose a suitable username and password,
by sending a hint. Note that there is no common profile for the PSK
hint and applications are discouraged to use it. A server, may specify
the hint by calling *note gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_hint::. The
client can retrieve the hint, for example in the callback function,
using *note gnutls_psk_client_get_hint::.
-- Function: int gnutls_psk_set_server_credentials_file
(gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t RES, const char *
PASSWORD_FILE)
RES: is a ‘gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t’ type.
PASSWORD_FILE: is the PSK password file (passwd.psk)
This function sets the password file, in a
‘gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t’ type. This password file holds
usernames and keys and will be used for PSK authentication.
Each entry in the file consists of a username, followed by a colon
(’:’) and a hex-encoded key. If the username contains a colon or
any other special character, it can be hex-encoded preceded by a
’#’.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.

6.5 Setting up the transport layer
==================================
The next step is to setup the underlying transport layer details. The
Berkeley sockets are implicitly used by GnuTLS, thus a call to *note
gnutls_transport_set_int:: would be sufficient to specify the socket
descriptor.
‘VOID *note gnutls_transport_set_int:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, int FD)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_transport_set_int2:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, int RECV_FD, int SEND_FD)’
If however another transport layer than TCP is selected, then a pointer
should be used instead to express the parameter to be passed to custom
functions. In that case the following functions should be used instead.
‘VOID *note gnutls_transport_set_ptr:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_transport_ptr_t PTR)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_transport_set_ptr2:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_transport_ptr_t RECV_PTR, gnutls_transport_ptr_t SEND_PTR)’
Moreover all of the following push and pull callbacks should be set.
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_push_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_push_func PUSH_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PUSH_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘write()’
This is the function where you set a push function for gnutls to
use in order to send data. If you are going to use berkeley style
sockets, you do not need to use this function since the default
send(2) will probably be ok. Otherwise you should specify this
function for gnutls to be able to send data. The callback should
return a positive number indicating the bytes sent, and -1 on
error.
‘push_func’ is of the form, ssize_t
(*gnutls_push_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, const void*, size_t);
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_vec_push_function
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_vec_push_func VEC_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
VEC_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘writev()’
Using this function you can override the default writev(2) function
for gnutls to send data. Setting this callback instead of
‘gnutls_transport_set_push_function()’ is recommended since it
introduces less overhead in the TLS handshake process.
‘vec_func’ is of the form, ssize_t (*gnutls_vec_push_func)
(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, const giovec_t * iov, int iovcnt);
*Since:* 2.12.0
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_pull_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_pull_func PULL_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PULL_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘read()’
This is the function where you set a function for gnutls to receive
data. Normally, if you use berkeley style sockets, do not need to
use this function since the default recv(2) will probably be ok.
The callback should return 0 on connection termination, a positive
number indicating the number of bytes received, and -1 on error.
‘gnutls_pull_func’ is of the form, ssize_t
(*gnutls_pull_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, void*, size_t);
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_pull_timeout_func FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FUNC: a callback function
This is the function where you set a function for gnutls to know
whether data are ready to be received. It should wait for data a
given time frame in milliseconds. The callback should return 0 on
timeout, a positive number if data can be received, and -1 on
error. You’ll need to override this function if ‘select()’ is not
suitable for the provided transport calls.
As with ‘select()’ , if the timeout value is zero the callback
should return zero if no data are immediately available. The
special value ‘GNUTLS_INDEFINITE_TIMEOUT’ indicates that the
callback should wait indefinitely for data.
‘gnutls_pull_timeout_func’ is of the form, int
(*gnutls_pull_timeout_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, unsigned int
ms);
This callback is necessary when ‘gnutls_handshake_set_timeout()’ or
‘gnutls_record_set_timeout()’ are set, under TLS1.3 and for
enforcing the DTLS mode timeouts when in blocking mode.
For compatibility with future GnuTLS versions this callback must be
set when a custom pull function is registered. The callback will
not be used when the session is in TLS mode with non-blocking
sockets. That is, when ‘GNUTLS_NONBLOCK’ is specified for a TLS
session in ‘gnutls_init()’ .
The helper function ‘gnutls_system_recv_timeout()’ is provided to
simplify writing callbacks.
*Since:* 3.0
The functions above accept a callback function which should return the
number of bytes written, or -1 on error and should set ‘errno’
appropriately. In some environments, setting ‘errno’ is unreliable.
For example Windows have several errno variables in different CRTs, or
in other systems it may be a non thread-local variable. If this is a
concern to you, call *note gnutls_transport_set_errno:: with the
intended errno value instead of setting ‘errno’ directly.
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
int ERR)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
ERR: error value to store in session-specific errno variable.
Store ‘err’ in the session-specific errno variable. Useful values
for ‘err’ are EINTR, EAGAIN and EMSGSIZE, other values are treated
will be treated as real errors in the push/pull function.
This function is useful in replacement push and pull functions set
by ‘gnutls_transport_set_push_function()’ and
‘gnutls_transport_set_pull_function()’ under Windows, where the
replacements may not have access to the same ‘errno’ variable that
is used by GnuTLS (e.g., the application is linked to msvcr71.dll
and gnutls is linked to msvcrt.dll).
This function is unreliable if you are using the same ‘session’ in
different threads for sending and receiving.
GnuTLS currently only interprets the EINTR, EAGAIN and EMSGSIZE errno
values and returns the corresponding GnuTLS error codes:
• ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’
• ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’
• ‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’
The EINTR and EAGAIN values are returned by interrupted system calls, or
when non blocking IO is used. All GnuTLS functions can be resumed
(called again), if any of the above error codes is returned. The
EMSGSIZE value is returned when attempting to send a large datagram.
In the case of DTLS it is also desirable to override the generic
transport functions with functions that emulate the operation of
‘recvfrom’ and ‘sendto’. In addition DTLS requires timers during the
receive of a handshake message, set using the *note
gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function:: function. To check the
retransmission timers the function *note gnutls_dtls_get_timeout:: is
provided, which returns the time remaining until the next
retransmission, or better the time until *note gnutls_handshake:: should
be called again.
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_pull_timeout_func FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FUNC: a callback function
This is the function where you set a function for gnutls to know
whether data are ready to be received. It should wait for data a
given time frame in milliseconds. The callback should return 0 on
timeout, a positive number if data can be received, and -1 on
error. You’ll need to override this function if ‘select()’ is not
suitable for the provided transport calls.
As with ‘select()’ , if the timeout value is zero the callback
should return zero if no data are immediately available. The
special value ‘GNUTLS_INDEFINITE_TIMEOUT’ indicates that the
callback should wait indefinitely for data.
‘gnutls_pull_timeout_func’ is of the form, int
(*gnutls_pull_timeout_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, unsigned int
ms);
This callback is necessary when ‘gnutls_handshake_set_timeout()’ or
‘gnutls_record_set_timeout()’ are set, under TLS1.3 and for
enforcing the DTLS mode timeouts when in blocking mode.
For compatibility with future GnuTLS versions this callback must be
set when a custom pull function is registered. The callback will
not be used when the session is in TLS mode with non-blocking
sockets. That is, when ‘GNUTLS_NONBLOCK’ is specified for a TLS
session in ‘gnutls_init()’ .
The helper function ‘gnutls_system_recv_timeout()’ is provided to
simplify writing callbacks.
*Since:* 3.0
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_dtls_get_timeout (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return the milliseconds remaining for a
retransmission of the previously sent handshake message. This
function is useful when DTLS is used in non-blocking mode, to
estimate when to call ‘gnutls_handshake()’ if no packets have been
received.
*Returns:* the remaining time in milliseconds.

6.5.1 Asynchronous operation
----------------------------
GnuTLS can be used with asynchronous socket or event-driven programming.
The approach is similar to using Berkeley sockets under such an
environment. The blocking, due to network interaction, calls such as
*note gnutls_handshake::, *note gnutls_record_recv::, can be set to
non-blocking by setting the underlying sockets to non-blocking. If
other push and pull functions are setup, then they should behave the
same way as ‘recv’ and ‘send’ when used in a non-blocking way, i.e.,
return -1 and set errno to ‘EAGAIN’. Since, during a TLS protocol
session GnuTLS does not block except for network interaction, the non
blocking ‘EAGAIN’ errno will be propagated and GnuTLS functions will
return the ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ error code. Such calls can be resumed the
same way as a system call would. The only exception is *note
gnutls_record_send::, which if interrupted subsequent calls need not to
include the data to be sent (can be called with NULL argument).
When using the ‘poll’ or ‘select’ system calls though, one should
remember that they only apply to the kernel sockets API. To check for
any available buffered data in a GnuTLS session, utilize *note
gnutls_record_check_pending::, either before the ‘poll’ system call, or
after a call to *note gnutls_record_recv::. Data queued by *note
gnutls_record_send:: (when interrupted) can be discarded using *note
gnutls_record_discard_queued::.
An example of GnuTLS’ usage with asynchronous operation can be found in
‘doc/examples/tlsproxy’.
The following paragraphs describe the detailed requirements for
non-blocking operation when using the TLS or DTLS protocols.
6.5.1.1 TLS protocol
....................
There are no special requirements for the TLS protocol operation in
non-blocking mode if a non-blocking socket is used.
It is recommended, however, for future compatibility, when in
non-blocking mode, to call the *note gnutls_init:: function with the
‘GNUTLS_NONBLOCK’ flag set (see *note Session initialization::).
6.5.1.2 Datagram TLS protocol
.............................
When in non-blocking mode the function, the *note gnutls_init:: function
must be called with the ‘GNUTLS_NONBLOCK’ flag set (see *note Session
initialization::).
In contrast with the TLS protocol, the pull timeout function is
required, but will only be called with a timeout of zero. In that case
it should indicate whether there are data to be received or not. When
not using the default pull function, then *note
gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function:: should be called.
Although in the TLS protocol implementation each call to receive or send
function implies to restoring the same function that was interrupted, in
the DTLS protocol this requirement isn’t true. There are cases where a
retransmission is required, which are indicated by a received message
and thus *note gnutls_record_get_direction:: must be called to decide
which direction to check prior to restoring a function call.
-- Function: int gnutls_record_get_direction (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function is useful to determine whether a GnuTLS function was
interrupted while sending or receiving, so that ‘select()’ or
‘poll()’ may be called appropriately.
It provides information about the internals of the record protocol
and is only useful if a prior gnutls function call, e.g.
‘gnutls_handshake()’ , was interrupted and returned
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ . After such an
interrupt applications may call ‘select()’ or ‘poll()’ before
restoring the interrupted GnuTLS function.
This function’s output is unreliable if you are using the same
‘session’ in different threads for sending and receiving.
*Returns:* 0 if interrupted while trying to read data, or 1 while
trying to write data.
When calling *note gnutls_handshake:: through a multi-plexer, to be able
to handle properly the DTLS handshake retransmission timers, the
function *note gnutls_dtls_get_timeout:: should be used to estimate when
to call *note gnutls_handshake:: if no data have been received.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Reducing round-trips, Next: Zero-roundtrip mode, Prev: Asynchronous operation, Up: Setting up the transport layer
6.5.2 Reducing round-trips
--------------------------
The full TLS 1.2 handshake requires 2 round-trips to complete, and when
combined with TCP’s SYN and SYN-ACK negotiation it extends to 3 full
round-trips. While, TLS 1.3 reduces that to two round-trips when under
TCP, it still adds considerable latency, making the protocol unsuitable
for certain applications.
To optimize the handshake latency, in client side, it is possible to
take advantage of the TCP fast open [*note RFC7413::] mechanism on
operating systems that support it. That can be done either by manually
crafting the push and pull callbacks, or by utilizing *note
gnutls_transport_set_fastopen::. In that case the initial TCP handshake
is eliminated, reducing the TLS 1.2 handshake round-trip to 2, and the
TLS 1.3 handshake to a single round-trip. Note, that when this function
is used, any connection failures will be reported during the *note
gnutls_handshake:: function call with error code ‘GNUTLS_E_PUSH_ERROR’.
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_fastopen (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, int FD, struct sockaddr * CONNECT_ADDR, socklen_t
CONNECT_ADDRLEN, unsigned int FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FD: is the session’s socket descriptor
CONNECT_ADDR: is the address we want to connect to
CONNECT_ADDRLEN: is the length of ‘connect_addr’
FLAGS: must be zero
Enables TCP Fast Open (TFO) for the specified TLS client session.
That means that TCP connection establishment and the transmission
of the first TLS client hello packet are combined. The peer’s
address must be specified in ‘connect_addr’ and ‘connect_addrlen’ ,
and the socket specified by ‘fd’ should not be connected.
TFO only works for TCP sockets of type AF_INET and AF_INET6. If
the OS doesn’t support TCP fast open this function will result to
gnutls using ‘connect()’ transparently during the first write.
*Note:* This function overrides all the transport callback
functions. If this is undesirable, TCP Fast Open must be
implemented on the user callback functions without calling this
function. When using this function, transport callbacks must not
be set, and ‘gnutls_transport_set_ptr()’ or
‘gnutls_transport_set_int()’ must not be called.
On GNU/Linux TFO has to be enabled at the system layer, that is in
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen, bit 0 has to be set.
This function has no effect on server sessions.
*Since:* 3.5.3
When restricted to TLS 1.2, and non-resumed sessions, it is possible to
further reduce the round-trips to a single one by taking advantage of
the *note False Start:: TLS extension. This can be enabled by setting
the GNUTLS_ENABLE_FALSE_START flag on *note gnutls_init::.
Under TLS 1.3, the server side can start transmitting before the
handshake is complete (i.e., while the client Finished message is still
in flight), when no client certificate authentication is requested.
This, unlike false start, is part of protocol design with no known
security implications. It can be enabled by setting the
GNUTLS_ENABLE_EARLY_START on *note gnutls_init::, and the *note
gnutls_handshake:: function will return early, allowing the server to
send data earlier.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Zero-roundtrip mode, Next: Anti-replay protection, Prev: Reducing round-trips, Up: Setting up the transport layer
6.5.3 Zero-roundtrip mode
-------------------------
Under TLS 1.3, when the client has already connected to the server and
is resuming a session, it can start transmitting application data during
handshake. This is called zero round-trip time (0-RTT) mode, and the
application data sent in this mode is called early data. The client can
send early data with *note gnutls_record_send_early_data::. The client
should call this function before calling *note gnutls_handshake:: and
after calling *note gnutls_session_set_data::.
Note, however, that early data has weaker security properties than
normal application data sent after handshake, such as lack of forward
secrecy, no guarantees of non-replay between connections. Thus it is
disabled on the server side by default. To enable it, the server needs
to:
1. Set GNUTLS_ENABLE_EARLY_DATA on *note gnutls_init::. Note that
this option only has effect on server.
2. Enable anti-replay measure. See *note Anti-replay protection:: for
the details.
The server caches the received early data until it is read. To set the
maximum amount of data to be stored in the cache, use *note
gnutls_record_set_max_early_data_size::. After receiving the
EndOfEarlyData handshake message, the server can start retrieving the
received data with *note gnutls_record_recv_early_data::. You can call
the function either after the handshake is complete, or through a
handshake hook (*note gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function::).
When sending early data, the client should respect the maximum amount of
early data, which may have been previously advertised by the server. It
can be checked using *note gnutls_record_get_max_early_data_size::,
right after calling *note gnutls_session_set_data::.
After sending early data, to check whether the sent early data was
accepted by the server, use *note gnutls_session_get_flags:: and compare
the result with GNUTLS_SFLAGS_EARLY_DATA. Similarly, on the server
side, the same function and flag can be used to check whether it has
actually accepted early data.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Anti-replay protection, Next: DTLS sessions, Prev: Zero-roundtrip mode, Up: Setting up the transport layer
6.5.4 Anti-replay protection
----------------------------
When 0-RTT mode is used, the server must protect itself from replay
attacks, where adversary client reuses duplicate session ticket to send
early data, before the server authenticates the client.
GnuTLS provides a simple mechanism against replay attacks, following the
method called ClientHello recording. When a session ticket is accepted,
the server checks if the ClientHello message has been already seen. If
there is a duplicate, the server rejects early data.
The problem of this approach is that the number of recorded messages
grows indefinitely. To prevent that, the server can limit the recording
to a certain time window, which can be configured with *note
gnutls_anti_replay_set_window::.
The anti-replay mechanism shall be globally initialized with *note
gnutls_anti_replay_init::, and then attached to a session using *note
gnutls_anti_replay_enable::. It can be deinitialized with *note
gnutls_anti_replay_deinit::.
The server must also set up a database back-end to store ClientHello
messages. That can be achieved using *note
gnutls_anti_replay_set_add_function:: and *note
gnutls_anti_replay_set_ptr::.
Note that, if the back-end stores arbitrary number of ClientHello, it
needs to periodically clean up the stored entries based on the time
window set with *note gnutls_anti_replay_set_window::. The cleanup can
be implemented by iterating through the database entries and calling
*note gnutls_db_check_entry_expire_time::. This is similar to session
database cleanup used by TLS1.2 sessions.
The full set up of the server using early data would be like the
following example:
#define MAX_EARLY_DATA_SIZE 16384
static int
db_add_func(void *dbf, gnutls_datum_t key, gnutls_datum_t data)
{
/* Return GNUTLS_E_DB_ENTRY_EXISTS, if KEY is found in the database.
* Otherwise, store it and return 0.
*/
}

{
int ret;
char buf[MAX_EARLY_DATA_SIZE];
assert(htype == GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_END_OF_EARLY_DATA);
assert(when == GNUTLS_HOOK_POST);
if (gnutls_session_get_flags(session) & GNUTLS_SFLAGS_EARLY_DATA) {
ret = gnutls_record_recv_early_data(session, buf, sizeof(buf));
assert(ret >= 0);
}
return ret;
}
int main()
{
...
/* Initialize anti-replay measure, which can be shared
* among multiple sessions.
*/
gnutls_anti_replay_init(&anti_replay);
/* Set the database back-end function for the anti-replay data. */
gnutls_anti_replay_set_add_function(anti_replay, db_add_func);
gnutls_anti_replay_set_ptr(anti_replay, NULL);
...
gnutls_init(&server, GNUTLS_SERVER | GNUTLS_ENABLE_EARLY_DATA);
gnutls_record_set_max_early_data_size(server, MAX_EARLY_DATA_SIZE);
...
/* Set the anti-replay measure to the session.
*/
gnutls_anti_replay_enable(server, anti_replay);
...
/* Retrieve early data in a handshake hook;
* you can also do that after handshake.
*/
gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function(server, GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_END_OF_EARLY_DATA,
GNUTLS_HOOK_POST, handshake_hook_func);
...
}

6.5.5 DTLS sessions
-------------------
Because datagram TLS can operate over connections where the client
cannot be reliably verified, functionality in the form of cookies, is
available to prevent denial of service attacks to servers. GnuTLS
requires a server to generate a secret key that is used to sign a
cookie(1). That cookie is sent to the client using *note
gnutls_dtls_cookie_send::, and the client must reply using the correct
cookie. The server side should verify the initial message sent by
client using *note gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify::. If successful the
session should be initialized and associated with the cookie using *note
gnutls_dtls_prestate_set::, before proceeding to the handshake.
‘INT *note gnutls_key_generate:: (gnutls_datum_t * KEY, unsigned int KEY_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_dtls_cookie_send:: (gnutls_datum_t * KEY, void * CLIENT_DATA, size_t CLIENT_DATA_SIZE, gnutls_dtls_prestate_st * PRESTATE, gnutls_transport_ptr_t PTR, gnutls_push_func PUSH_FUNC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify:: (gnutls_datum_t * KEY, void * CLIENT_DATA, size_t CLIENT_DATA_SIZE, void * _MSG, size_t MSG_SIZE, gnutls_dtls_prestate_st * PRESTATE)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_dtls_prestate_set:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_dtls_prestate_st * PRESTATE)’
Note that the above apply to server side only and they are not mandatory
to be used. Not using them, however, allows denial of service attacks.
The client side cookie handling is part of *note gnutls_handshake::.
Datagrams are typically restricted by a maximum transfer unit (MTU). For
that both client and server side should set the correct maximum transfer
unit for the layer underneath GnuTLS. This will allow proper
fragmentation of DTLS messages and prevent messages from being silently
discarded by the transport layer. The “correct” maximum transfer unit
can be obtained through a path MTU discovery mechanism [*note
RFC4821::].

6.5.6 DTLS and SCTP
-------------------
Although DTLS can run under any reliable or unreliable layer, there are
special requirements for SCTP according to [*note RFC6083::]. We
summarize the most important below, however for a full treatment we
refer to [*note RFC6083::].
• The MTU set via *note gnutls_dtls_set_mtu:: must be 2^14.
• Replay detection must be disabled; use the flag
‘GNUTLS_NO_REPLAY_PROTECTION’ with *note gnutls_init::.
• Retransmission of messages must be disabled; use *note
gnutls_dtls_set_timeouts:: with a retransmission timeout larger
than the total.
• Handshake, Alert and ChangeCipherSpec messages must be sent over
stream 0 with unlimited reliability and with the ordered delivery
feature.
• During a rehandshake, the caching of messages with unknown epoch is
not handled by GnuTLS; this must be implemented in a special pull
function.

6.6 TLS handshake
=================
Once a session has been initialized and a network connection has been
set up, TLS and DTLS protocols perform a handshake. The handshake is
the actual key exchange.
-- Function: int gnutls_handshake (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function performs the handshake of the TLS/SSL protocol, and
initializes the TLS session parameters.
The non-fatal errors expected by this function are:
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ , ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ ,
‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ . When this function is called
for re-handshake under TLS 1.2 or earlier, the non-fatal error code
‘GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA’ may also be returned.
The former two interrupt the handshake procedure due to the
transport layer being interrupted, and the latter because of a
"warning" alert that was sent by the peer (it is always a good idea
to check any received alerts). On these non-fatal errors call this
function again, until it returns 0; cf.
‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ and ‘gnutls_error_is_fatal()’ . In
DTLS sessions the non-fatal error ‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ is also
possible, and indicates that the MTU should be adjusted.
When this function is called by a server after a rehandshake
request under TLS 1.2 or earlier the
‘GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA’ error code indicates that some data
were pending prior to peer initiating the handshake. Under TLS 1.3
this function when called after a successful handshake, is a no-op
and always succeeds in server side; in client side this function is
equivalent to ‘gnutls_session_key_update()’ with ‘GNUTLS_KU_PEER’
flag.
This function handles both full and abbreviated TLS handshakes
(resumption). For abbreviated handshakes, in client side, the
‘gnutls_session_set_data()’ should be called prior to this function
to set parameters from a previous session. In server side,
resumption is handled by either setting a DB back-end, or setting
up keys for session tickets.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on a successful handshake, otherwise
a negative error code.
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_timeout (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, unsigned int MS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
MS: is a timeout value in milliseconds
This function sets the timeout for the TLS handshake process to the
provided value. Use an ‘ms’ value of zero to disable timeout, or
‘GNUTLS_DEFAULT_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT’ for a reasonable default value.
For the DTLS protocol, the more detailed
‘gnutls_dtls_set_timeouts()’ is provided.
This function requires to set a pull timeout callback. See
‘gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function()’ .
*Since:* 3.1.0
In GnuTLS 3.5.0 and later it is recommended to use *note
gnutls_session_set_verify_cert:: for the handshake process to ensure the
verification of the peer’s identity. That will verify the peer’s
certificate, against the trusted CA store while accounting for stapled
OCSP responses during the handshake; any error will be returned as a
handshake error.
In older GnuTLS versions it is required to verify the peer’s certificate
during the handshake by setting a callback with *note
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function::, and then using *note
gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3:: from it. See *note Certificate
authentication:: for more information.
‘VOID *note gnutls_session_set_verify_cert:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, unsigned FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, unsigned int * STATUS)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: Data transfer and termination, Next: Buffered data transfer, Prev: TLS handshake, Up: How to use GnuTLS in applications
6.7 Data transfer and termination
=================================
Once the handshake is complete and peer’s identity has been verified
data can be exchanged. The available functions resemble the POSIX
‘recv’ and ‘send’ functions. It is suggested to use *note
gnutls_error_is_fatal:: to check whether the error codes returned by
these functions are fatal for the protocol or can be ignored.
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: contains the data to send
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the data
This function has the similar semantics with ‘send()’ . The only
difference is that it accepts a GnuTLS session, and uses different
error codes. Note that if the send buffer is full, ‘send()’ will
block this function. See the ‘send()’ documentation for more
information.
You can replace the default push function which is ‘send()’ , by
using ‘gnutls_transport_set_push_function()’ .
If the EINTR is returned by the internal push function then
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ will be returned. If ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’
or ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ is returned, you must call this function again
with the exact same parameters, or provide a ‘NULL’ pointer for
‘data’ and 0 for ‘data_size’ , in order to write the same data as
before. If you wish to discard the previous data instead of
retrying, you must call ‘gnutls_record_discard_queued()’ before
calling this function with different parameters. Note that the
latter works only on special transports (e.g., UDP). cf.
‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ .
Note that in DTLS this function will return the
‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ error code if the send data exceed the data
MTU value - as returned by ‘gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu()’ . The
errno value EMSGSIZE also maps to ‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ . Note
that since 3.2.13 this function can be called under cork in DTLS
mode, and will refuse to send data over the MTU size by returning
‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code. The
number of bytes sent might be less than ‘data_size’ . The maximum
number of bytes this function can send in a single call depends on
the negotiated maximum record size.
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_recv (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void
* DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: the buffer that the data will be read into
DATA_SIZE: the number of requested bytes
This function has the similar semantics with ‘recv()’ . The only
difference is that it accepts a GnuTLS session, and uses different
error codes. In the special case that the peer requests a
renegotiation, the caller will receive an error code of
‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ . In case of a client, this message may be
simply ignored, replied with an alert ‘GNUTLS_A_NO_RENEGOTIATION’ ,
or replied with a new handshake, depending on the client’s will. A
server receiving this error code can only initiate a new handshake
or terminate the session.
If ‘EINTR’ is returned by the internal pull function (the default
is ‘recv()’ ) then ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ will be returned. If
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ is returned, you must
call this function again to get the data. See also
‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes received and zero on EOF (for stream
connections). A negative error code is returned in case of an
error. The number of bytes received might be less than the
requested ‘data_size’ .
-- Function: int gnutls_error_is_fatal (int ERROR)
ERROR: is a GnuTLS error code, a negative error code
If a GnuTLS function returns a negative error code you may feed
that value to this function to see if the error condition is fatal
to a TLS session (i.e., must be terminated).
Note that you may also want to check the error code manually, since
some non-fatal errors to the protocol (such as a warning alert or a
rehandshake request) may be fatal for your program.
This function is only useful if you are dealing with errors from
functions that relate to a TLS session (e.g., record layer or
handshake layer handling functions).
*Returns:* Non-zero value on fatal errors or zero on non-fatal.
Although, in the TLS protocol the receive function can be called at any
time, when DTLS is used the GnuTLS receive functions must be called once
a message is available for reading, even if no data are expected. This
is because in DTLS various (internal) actions may be required due to
retransmission timers. Moreover, an extended receive function is shown
below, which allows the extraction of the message’s sequence number.
Due to the unreliable nature of the protocol, this field allows
distinguishing out-of-order messages.
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_recv_seq (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE, unsigned char * SEQ)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: the buffer that the data will be read into
DATA_SIZE: the number of requested bytes
SEQ: is the packet’s 64-bit sequence number. Should have space for
8 bytes.
This function is the same as ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ , except that
it returns in addition to data, the sequence number of the data.
This is useful in DTLS where record packets might be received
out-of-order. The returned 8-byte sequence number is an integer in
big-endian format and should be treated as a unique message
identification.
*Returns:* The number of bytes received and zero on EOF. A negative
error code is returned in case of an error. The number of bytes
received might be less than ‘data_size’ .
*Since:* 3.0
The *note gnutls_record_check_pending:: helper function is available to
allow checking whether data are available to be read in a GnuTLS session
buffers. Note that this function complements but does not replace
‘poll’, i.e., *note gnutls_record_check_pending:: reports no data to be
read, ‘poll’ should be called to check for data in the network buffers.
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_check_pending (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function checks if there are unread data in the gnutls
buffers. If the return value is non-zero the next call to
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ is guaranteed not to block.
*Returns:* Returns the size of the data or zero.
‘INT *note gnutls_record_get_direction:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION)’
Once a TLS or DTLS session is no longer needed, it is recommended to use
*note gnutls_bye:: to terminate the session. That way the peer is
notified securely about the intention of termination, which allows
distinguishing it from a malicious connection termination. A session
can be deinitialized with the *note gnutls_deinit:: function.
-- Function: int gnutls_bye (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_close_request_t HOW)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
HOW: is an integer
Terminates the current TLS/SSL connection. The connection should
have been initiated using ‘gnutls_handshake()’ . ‘how’ should be
one of ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR’ , ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ .
In case of ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR’ the TLS session gets terminated and
further receives and sends will be disallowed. If the return value
is zero you may continue using the underlying transport layer.
‘GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR’ sends an alert containing a close request and
waits for the peer to reply with the same message.
In case of ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ the TLS session gets terminated and
further sends will be disallowed. In order to reuse the connection
you should wait for an EOF from the peer. ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ sends
an alert containing a close request.
Note that not all implementations will properly terminate a TLS
connection. Some of them, usually for performance reasons, will
terminate only the underlying transport layer, and thus not
distinguishing between a malicious party prematurely terminating
the connection and normal termination.
This function may also return ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ ; cf. ‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code, see
function documentation for entire semantics.
-- Function: void gnutls_deinit (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function clears all buffers associated with the ‘session’ .
This function will also remove session data from the session
database if the session was terminated abnormally.

6.8 Buffered data transfer
==========================
Although *note gnutls_record_send:: is sufficient to transmit data to
the peer, when many small chunks of data are to be transmitted it is
inefficient and wastes bandwidth due to the TLS record overhead. In
that case it is preferable to combine the small chunks before
transmission. The following functions provide that functionality.
-- Function: void gnutls_record_cork (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
If called, ‘gnutls_record_send()’ will no longer send any records.
Any sent records will be cached until ‘gnutls_record_uncork()’ is
called.
This function is safe to use with DTLS after GnuTLS 3.3.0.
*Since:* 3.1.9
-- Function: int gnutls_record_uncork (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FLAGS: Could be zero or ‘GNUTLS_RECORD_WAIT’
This resets the effect of ‘gnutls_record_cork()’ , and flushes any
pending data. If the ‘GNUTLS_RECORD_WAIT’ flag is specified then
this function will block until the data is sent or a fatal error
occurs (i.e., the function will retry on ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ and
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ ).
If the flag ‘GNUTLS_RECORD_WAIT’ is not specified and the function
is interrupted then the ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’
errors will be returned. To obtain the data left in the corked
buffer use ‘gnutls_record_check_corked()’ .
*Returns:* On success the number of transmitted data is returned,
or otherwise a negative error code.
*Since:* 3.1.9
File: gnutls.info, Node: Handling alerts, Next: Priority Strings, Prev: Buffered data transfer, Up: How to use GnuTLS in applications
6.9 Handling alerts
===================
During a TLS connection alert messages may be exchanged by the two
peers. Those messages may be fatal, meaning the connection must be
terminated afterwards, or warning when something needs to be reported to
the peer, but without interrupting the session. The error codes
‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_FATAL_ALERT_RECEIVED’
signal those alerts when received, and may be returned by all GnuTLS
functions that receive data from the peer, being *note
gnutls_handshake:: and *note gnutls_record_recv::.
If those error codes are received the alert and its level should be
logged or reported to the peer using the functions below.
-- Function: gnutls_alert_description_t gnutls_alert_get
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return the last alert number received. This
function should be called when ‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_FATAL_ALERT_RECEIVED’ errors are returned by a gnutls
function. The peer may send alerts if he encounters an error. If
no alert has been received the returned value is undefined.
*Returns:* the last alert received, a ‘gnutls_alert_description_t’
value.
-- Function: const char * gnutls_alert_get_name
(gnutls_alert_description_t ALERT)
ALERT: is an alert number.
This function will return a string that describes the given alert
number, or ‘NULL’ . See ‘gnutls_alert_get()’ .
*Returns:* string corresponding to ‘gnutls_alert_description_t’
value.
The peer may also be warned or notified of a fatal issue by using one of
the functions below. All the available alerts are listed in *note The
Alert Protocol::.
-- Function: int gnutls_alert_send (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_alert_level_t LEVEL, gnutls_alert_description_t DESC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
LEVEL: is the level of the alert
DESC: is the alert description
This function will send an alert to the peer in order to inform him
of something important (eg. his Certificate could not be
verified). If the alert level is Fatal then the peer is expected
to close the connection, otherwise he may ignore the alert and
continue.
The error code of the underlying record send function will be
returned, so you may also receive ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ as well.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
-- Function: int gnutls_error_to_alert (int ERR, int * LEVEL)
ERR: is a negative integer
LEVEL: the alert level will be stored there
Get an alert depending on the error code returned by a gnutls
function. All alerts sent by this function should be considered
fatal. The only exception is when ‘err’ is ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’
, where a warning alert should be sent to the peer indicating that
no renegotiation will be performed.
If there is no mapping to a valid alert the alert to indicate
internal error (‘GNUTLS_A_INTERNAL_ERROR’ ) is returned.
*Returns:* the alert code to use for a particular error code.

6.10 Priority strings
=====================
How to use Priority Strings
---------------------------
The GnuTLS priority strings specify the TLS session’s handshake
algorithms and options in a compact, easy-to-use format. These strings
are intended as a user-specified override of the library defaults.
That is, we recommend applications using the default settings (c.f.
*note gnutls_set_default_priority:: or *note
gnutls_set_default_priority_append::), and provide the user with access
to priority strings for overriding the default behavior, on
configuration files, or other UI. Following such a principle, makes the
GnuTLS library as the default settings provider. That is necessary and
a good practice, because TLS protocol hardening and phasing out of
legacy algorithms, is easier to coordinate when happens in a single
library.
‘INT *note gnutls_set_default_priority:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION)’
‘INT *note gnutls_set_default_priority_append:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * ADD_PRIO, const char ** ERR_POS, unsigned FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_priority_set_direct:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * PRIORITIES, const char ** ERR_POS)’
The priority string translation to the internal GnuTLS form requires
processing and the generated internal form also occupies some memory.
For that, it is recommended to do that processing once in server side,
and share the generated data across sessions. The following functions
allow the generation of a "priority cache" and the sharing of it across
sessions.
‘INT *note gnutls_priority_init2:: (gnutls_priority_t * PRIORITY_CACHE, const char * PRIORITIES, const char ** ERR_POS, unsigned FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_priority_init:: (gnutls_priority_t * PRIORITY_CACHE, const char * PRIORITIES, const char ** ERR_POS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_priority_set:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_priority_t PRIORITY)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_priority_deinit:: (gnutls_priority_t PRIORITY_CACHE)’
Using Priority Strings
----------------------
A priority string string may contain a single initial keyword such as in
*note Table 6.3: tab:prio-keywords. and may be followed by additional
algorithm or special keywords. Note that their description is
intentionally avoiding specific algorithm details, as the priority
strings are not constant between gnutls versions (they are periodically
updated to account for cryptographic advances while providing
compatibility with old clients and servers).
Keyword Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
@KEYWORD Means that a compile-time specified system
configuration file (see
*note System-wide configuration of the library::)
will be used to expand the provided keyword.
That is used to impose system-specific policies.
It may be followed by additional options that
will be appended to the system string (e.g.,
"@SYSTEM:+SRP"). The system file should have the
format ’KEYWORD=VALUE’, e.g.,
’SYSTEM=NORMAL:+ARCFOUR-128’.
Since version 3.5.1 it is allowed to specify
fallback keywords such as @KEYWORD1,@KEYWORD2,
and the first valid keyword will be used.
PERFORMANCE All the known to be secure ciphersuites are
enabled, limited to 128 bit ciphers and sorted
by terms of speed performance. The message
authenticity security level is of 64 bits or
more, and the certificate verification profile
is set to GNUTLS_PROFILE_LOW (80-bits).
NORMAL Means all the known to be secure ciphersuites.
The ciphers are sorted by security margin,
although the 256-bit ciphers are included as a
fallback only. The message authenticity
security level is of 64 bits or more, and the
certificate verification profile is set to
GNUTLS_PROFILE_LOW (80-bits).
This priority string implicitly enables ECDHE
and DHE. The ECDHE ciphersuites are placed first
in the priority order, but due to compatibility
issues with the DHE ciphersuites they are placed
last in the priority order, after the plain RSA
ciphersuites.
LEGACY This sets the NORMAL settings that were used for
GnuTLS 3.2.x or earlier. There is no
verification profile set, and the allowed DH
primes are considered weak today (but are often
used by misconfigured servers).
PFS Means all the known to be secure ciphersuites
that support perfect forward secrecy (ECDHE and
DHE). The ciphers are sorted by security margin,
although the 256-bit ciphers are included as a
fallback only. The message authenticity
security level is of 80 bits or more, and the
certificate verification profile is set to
GNUTLS_PROFILE_LOW (80-bits). This option is
available since 3.2.4 or later.
SECURE128 Means all known to be secure ciphersuites that
offer a security level 128-bit or more. The
message authenticity security level is of 80
bits or more, and the certificate verification
profile is set to GNUTLS_PROFILE_LOW (80-bits).
SECURE192 Means all the known to be secure ciphersuites
that offer a security level 192-bit or more.
The message authenticity security level is of
128 bits or more, and the certificate
verification profile is set to
GNUTLS_PROFILE_HIGH (128-bits).
SECURE256 Currently alias for SECURE192. This option,
will enable ciphers which use a 256-bit key but,
due to limitations of the TLS protocol, the
overall security level will be 192-bits (the
security level depends on more factors than
cipher key size).
SUITEB128 Means all the NSA Suite B cryptography (RFC5430)
ciphersuites with an 128 bit security level, as
well as the enabling of the corresponding
verification profile.
SUITEB192 Means all the NSA Suite B cryptography (RFC5430)
ciphersuites with an 192 bit security level, as
well as the enabling of the corresponding
verification profile.
NONE Means nothing is enabled. This disables even
protocol versions. It should be followed by the
algorithms to be enabled. Note that using this
option to build a priority string gives detailed
control into the resulting settings, however
with new revisions of the TLS protocol new
priority items are routinely added, and such
strings are not forward compatible with new
protocols. As such, we advice against using
that option for applications targeting multiple
versions of the GnuTLS library, and recommend
using the defaults (see above) or adjusting the
defaults via
*note gnutls_set_default_priority_append::.
Table 6.3: Supported initial keywords.
Unless the initial keyword is "NONE" the defaults (in preference order)
are for TLS protocols TLS 1.2, TLS1.1, TLS1.0; for certificate types
X.509. In key exchange algorithms when in NORMAL or SECURE levels the
perfect forward secrecy algorithms take precedence of the other
protocols. In all cases all the supported key exchange algorithms are
enabled.
Note that the SECURE levels distinguish between overall security level
and message authenticity security level. That is because the message
authenticity security level requires the adversary to break the
algorithms at real-time during the protocol run, whilst the overall
security level refers to off-line adversaries (e.g. adversaries
breaking the ciphertext years after it was captured).
The NONE keyword, if used, must followed by keywords specifying the
algorithms and protocols to be enabled. The other initial keywords do
not require, but may be followed by such keywords. All level keywords
can be combined, and for example a level of "SECURE256:+SECURE128" is
allowed.
The order with which every algorithm or protocol is specified is
significant. Algorithms specified before others will take precedence.
The supported in the GnuTLS version corresponding to this document
algorithms and protocols are shown in *note Table 6.4:
tab:prio-algorithms.; to list the supported algorithms in your currently
using version use ‘gnutls-cli -l’.
To avoid collisions in order to specify a protocol version with "VERS-",
signature algorithms with "SIGN-" and certificate types with "CTYPE-".
All other algorithms don’t need a prefix. Each specified keyword
(except for _special keywords_) can be prefixed with any of the
following characters.
’!’ or ’-’
appended with an algorithm will remove this algorithm.
"+"
appended with an algorithm will add this algorithm.

Catch all which enables all curves from NORMAL
priority is CURVE-ALL. Note that the CURVE
keyword is kept for backwards compatibility
only, for new applications see the GROUP keyword
above.
Certificate Certificate types can be given in a symmetric
types fashion (i.e. the same for both client and
server) or, as of GnuTLS 3.6.4, in an asymmetric
fashion (i.e. different for the client than for
the server). Alternative certificate types must
be explicitly enabled via flags in
*note gnutls_init::.
The currently supported types are CTYPE-X509,
CTYPE-RAWPK which apply both to client and
server; catch all is CTYPE-ALL. The types
CTYPE-CLI-X509, CTYPE-SRV-X509, CTYPE-CLI-RAWPK,
CTYPE-SRV-RAWPK can be used to specialize on
client or server; catch all is CTYPE-CLI-ALL and
CTYPE-SRV-ALL. The type ’X509’ is aliased to
’X.509’ for legacy reasons.
Generic The keyword GOST is a shortcut for secure GOST
algorithms (MACs, ciphers, KXes, groups and
signatures). For example the following string
will enable all TLS 1.2 GOST ciphersuites:
’NONE:+VERS-TLS1.2:+GOST’.
Table 6.4: The supported algorithm keywords in priority strings.
Note that the finite field groups (indicated by the FFDHE prefix) and
DHE key exchange methods are generally slower(1) than their elliptic
curves counterpart (ECDHE).
The available special keywords are shown in *note Table 6.5:
tab:prio-special1. and *note Table 6.6: tab:prio-special2.
Keyword Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
%COMPAT will enable compatibility
mode. It might mean that
violations of the protocols
are allowed as long as maximum
compatibility with problematic
clients and servers is
achieved. More specifically
this string will tolerate
packets over the maximum
allowed TLS record, and add a
padding to TLS Client Hello
packet to prevent it being in
the 256-512 range which is
known to be causing issues
with a commonly used firewall
(see the %DUMBFW option).
%DUMBFW will add a private extension
with bogus data that make the
client hello exceed 512 bytes.
This avoids a black hole
behavior in some firewalls.
This is the [*note RFC7685::]
client hello padding
extension, also enabled with
%COMPAT.
%NO_EXTENSIONS will prevent the sending of
any TLS extensions in client
side. Note that TLS 1.2
requires extensions to be
used, as well as safe
renegotiation thus this option
must be used with care. When
this option is set no versions
later than TLS1.2 can be
negotiated.
%NO_TICKETS will prevent the advertizing
of the TLS session ticket
extension.
%NO_TICKETS_TLS12 will prevent the advertizing
of the TLS session ticket
extension in TLS 1.2. This is
implied by the PFS keyword.
%NO_SESSION_HASH will prevent the advertizing
the TLS extended master secret
(session hash) extension.
%SERVER_PRECEDENCE The ciphersuite will be
selected according to server
priorities and not the
client’s.
%SSL3_RECORD_VERSION will use SSL3.0 record version
in client hello. By default
GnuTLS will set the minimum
supported version as the
client hello record version
(do not confuse that version
with the proposed handshake
version at the client hello).
%LATEST_RECORD_VERSION will use the latest TLS
version record version in
client hello.
Table 6.5: Special priority string keywords.
Keyword Description
------------------------------------------------------------------
%STATELESS_COMPRESSION ignored; no longer used.
%DISABLE_WILDCARDS will disable matching
wildcards when comparing
hostnames in certificates.
%NO_ETM will disable the
encrypt-then-mac TLS extension
(RFC7366). This is implied by
the %COMPAT keyword.
%FORCE_ETM negotiate CBC ciphersuites
only when both sides of the
connection support
encrypt-then-mac TLS extension
(RFC7366).
%DISABLE_SAFE_RENEGOTIATION will completely disable safe
renegotiation completely. Do
not use unless you know what
you are doing.
%UNSAFE_RENEGOTIATION will allow handshakes and
re-handshakes without the safe
renegotiation extension. Note
that for clients this mode is
insecure (you may be under
attack), and for servers it
will allow insecure clients to
connect (which could be fooled
by an attacker). Do not use
unless you know what you are
doing and want maximum
compatibility.
%PARTIAL_RENEGOTIATION will allow initial handshakes
to proceed, but not
re-handshakes. This leaves
the client vulnerable to
attack, and servers will be
compatible with non-upgraded
clients for initial
handshakes. This is currently
the default for clients and
servers, for compatibility
reasons.
%SAFE_RENEGOTIATION will enforce safe
renegotiation. Clients and
servers will refuse to talk to
an insecure peer. Currently
this causes interoperability
problems, but is required for
full protection.
%FALLBACK_SCSV will enable the use of the
fallback signaling cipher
suite value in the client
hello. Note that this should
be set only by applications
that try to reconnect with a
downgraded protocol version.
See RFC7507 for details.
%DISABLE_TLS13_COMPAT_MODE will disable TLS 1.3 middlebox
compatibility mode (RFC8446,
Appendix D.4) for
non-compliant middleboxes.
%VERIFY_ALLOW_BROKEN will allow signatures with
known to be broken algorithms
(such as MD5 or SHA1) in
certificate chains.
%VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_RSA_MD5 will allow RSA-MD5 signatures
in certificate chains.
%VERIFY_ALLOW_SIGN_WITH_SHA1 will allow signatures with
SHA1 hash algorithm in
certificate chains.
%VERIFY_DISABLE_CRL_CHECKS will disable CRL or OCSP
checks in the verification of
the certificate chain.
%VERIFY_ALLOW_X509_V1_CA_CRT will allow V1 CAs in chains.
%PROFILE_(LOW|LEGACY|MEDIUM|HIGH|ULTRA|FUTURE)require a certificate
verification profile the
corresponds to the specified
security level, see
*note Table 6.7: tab:key-sizes.
for the mappings to values.
%PROFILE_(SUITEB128|SUITEB192) require a certificate
verification profile the
corresponds to SUITEB. Note
that an initial keyword that
enables SUITEB automatically
sets the profile.
Table 6.6: More priority string keywords.
Finally the ciphersuites enabled by any priority string can be listed
using the ‘gnutls-cli’ application (see *note gnutls-cli Invocation::),
or by using the priority functions as in *note Listing the ciphersuites
in a priority string::.
Example priority strings are:
The system imposed security level:
"SYSTEM"
The default priority without the HMAC-MD5:
"NORMAL:-MD5"
Specifying RSA with AES-128-CBC:
"NONE:+VERS-TLS-ALL:+MAC-ALL:+RSA:+AES-128-CBC:+SIGN-ALL:+COMP-NULL"
Specifying the defaults plus ARCFOUR-128:
"NORMAL:+ARCFOUR-128"
Enabling the 128-bit secure ciphers, while disabling TLS 1.0:
"SECURE128:-VERS-TLS1.0"
Enabling the 128-bit and 192-bit secure ciphers, while disabling all TLS versions
except TLS 1.2:
"SECURE128:+SECURE192:-VERS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.2"

(1) It depends on the group in use. Groups with less bits are always
faster, but the number of bits ties with the security parameter. See

6.11 Selecting cryptographic key sizes
======================================
Because many algorithms are involved in TLS, it is not easy to set a
consistent security level. For this reason in *note Table 6.7:
tab:key-sizes. we present some correspondence between key sizes of
symmetric algorithms and public key algorithms based on [*note
ECRYPT::]. Those can be used to generate certificates with appropriate
key sizes as well as select parameters for Diffie-Hellman and SRP
authentication.

Table 6.7: Key sizes and security parameters.
The first column provides a security parameter in a number of bits.
This gives an indication of the number of combinations to be tried by an
adversary to brute force a key. For example to test all possible keys
in a 112 bit security parameter 2^{112} combinations have to be tried.
For today’s technology this is infeasible. The next two columns
correlate the security parameter with actual bit sizes of parameters for
DH, RSA, SRP and ECC algorithms. A mapping to ‘gnutls_sec_param_t’
value is given for each security parameter, on the next column, and
finally a brief description of the level.
Note, however, that the values suggested here are nothing more than an
educated guess that is valid today. There are no guarantees that an
algorithm will remain unbreakable or that these values will remain
constant in time. There could be scientific breakthroughs that cannot
be predicted or total failure of the current public key systems by
quantum computers. On the other hand though the cryptosystems used in
TLS are selected in a conservative way and such catastrophic
breakthroughs or failures are believed to be unlikely. The NIST
publication SP 800-57 [*note NISTSP80057::] contains a similar table.
When using GnuTLS and a decision on bit sizes for a public key algorithm
is required, use of the following functions is recommended:
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits
(gnutls_pk_algorithm_t ALGO, gnutls_sec_param_t PARAM)
ALGO: is a public key algorithm
PARAM: is a security parameter
When generating private and public key pairs a difficult question
is which size of "bits" the modulus will be in RSA and the group
size in DSA. The easy answer is 1024, which is also wrong. This
function will convert a human understandable security parameter to
an appropriate size for the specific algorithm.
*Returns:* The number of bits, or (0).
*Since:* 2.12.0
-- Function: gnutls_sec_param_t gnutls_pk_bits_to_sec_param
(gnutls_pk_algorithm_t ALGO, unsigned int BITS)
ALGO: is a public key algorithm
BITS: is the number of bits
This is the inverse of ‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ . Given an
algorithm and the number of bits, it will return the security
parameter. This is a rough indication.
*Returns:* The security parameter.
*Since:* 2.12.0
Those functions will convert a human understandable security parameter
of ‘gnutls_sec_param_t’ type, to a number of bits suitable for a public
key algorithm.
‘CONST CHAR * *note gnutls_sec_param_get_name:: (gnutls_sec_param_t PARAM)’
The following functions will set the minimum acceptable group size for
Diffie-Hellman and SRP authentication.

‘VOID *note gnutls_srp_set_prime_bits:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int BITS)’

6.12.1 Virtual hosts and credentials
------------------------------------
Often when operating with virtual hosts, one may not want to associate a
particular certificate set to the credentials function early, before the
virtual host is known. That can be achieved by calling *note
gnutls_credentials_set:: within a handshake pre-hook for client hello.
That message contains the peer’s intended hostname, and if read, and the
appropriate credentials are set, gnutls will be able to continue in the
handshake process. A brief usage example is shown below.
static int ext_hook_func(void *ctx, unsigned tls_id,
const unsigned char *data, unsigned size)
{
if (tls_id == 0) { /* server name */
/* figure the advertized name - the following hack
* relies on the fact that this extension only supports
* DNS names, and due to a protocol bug cannot be extended
* to support anything else. */
if (name < 5) return 0;
name = data+5;
name_size = size-5;
}
return 0;
}
static int
handshake_hook_func(gnutls_session_t session, unsigned int htype,
unsigned when, unsigned int incoming, const gnutls_datum_t *msg)
{
int ret;
assert(htype == GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_CLIENT_HELLO);
assert(when == GNUTLS_HOOK_PRE);
ret = gnutls_ext_raw_parse(NULL, ext_hook_func, msg,
GNUTLS_EXT_RAW_FLAG_TLS_CLIENT_HELLO);
assert(ret >= 0);
gnutls_credentials_set(session, GNUTLS_CRD_CERTIFICATE, cred);
return ret;
}
int main()
{
...
gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function(server, GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_CLIENT_HELLO,
GNUTLS_HOOK_PRE, handshake_hook_func);
...
}
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, unsigned int HTYPE, int WHEN,
gnutls_handshake_hook_func FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type
HTYPE: the ‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ of the message to hook
at
WHEN: ‘GNUTLS_HOOK_’ * depending on when the hook function should
be called
FUNC: is the function to be called
This function will set a callback to be called after or before the
specified handshake message has been received or generated. This
is a generalization of
‘gnutls_handshake_set_post_client_hello_function()’ .
To call the hook function prior to the message being generated or
processed use ‘GNUTLS_HOOK_PRE’ as ‘when’ parameter,
‘GNUTLS_HOOK_POST’ to call after, and ‘GNUTLS_HOOK_BOTH’ for both
cases.
This callback must return 0 on success or a gnutls error code to
terminate the handshake.
To hook at all handshake messages use an ‘htype’ of
‘GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_ANY’ .
*Warning:* You should not use this function to terminate the
handshake based on client input unless you know what you are doing.
Before the handshake is finished there is no way to know if there
is a man-in-the-middle attack being performed.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Session resumption, Next: Certificate verification, Prev: Virtual hosts and credentials, Up: Advanced topics
6.12.2 Session resumption
-------------------------
To reduce time and network traffic spent in a handshake the client can
request session resumption from a server that previously shared a
session with the client.
Under TLS 1.2, in order to support resumption a server can either store
the session security parameters in a local database or use session
tickets (see *note Session tickets::) to delegate storage to the client.
Under TLS 1.3, session resumption is only available through session
tickets, and multiple tickets could be sent from server to client. That
provides the following advantages:
• When tickets are not re-used the subsequent client sessions cannot
be associated with each other by an eavesdropper
• On post-handshake authentication the server may send different
tickets asynchronously for each identity used by client.
Client side
...........
The client has to retrieve and store the session parameters. Before
establishing a new session to the same server the parameters must be
re-associated with the GnuTLS session using *note
gnutls_session_set_data::.
‘INT *note gnutls_session_get_data2:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_datum_t * DATA)’
‘INT *note gnutls_session_set_data:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const void * SESSION_DATA, size_t SESSION_DATA_SIZE)’
Keep in mind that sessions will be expired after some time, depending on
the server, and a server may choose not to resume a session even when
requested to. The expiration is to prevent temporal session keys from
becoming long-term keys. Also note that as a client you must enable,
using the priority functions, at least the algorithms used in the last
session.
-- Function: int gnutls_session_is_resumed (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Checks whether session is resumed or not. This is functional for
both server and client side.
*Returns:* non zero if this session is resumed, or a zero if this
is a new session.
-- Function: int gnutls_session_get_id2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_datum_t * SESSION_ID)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SESSION_ID: will point to the session ID.
Returns the TLS session identifier. The session ID is selected by
the server, and in older versions of TLS was a unique identifier
shared between client and server which was persistent across
resumption. In the latest version of TLS (1.3) or TLS 1.2 with
session tickets, the notion of session identifiers is undefined and
cannot be relied for uniquely identifying sessions across client
and server.
In client side this function returns the identifier returned by the
server, and cannot be assumed to have any relation to session
resumption. In server side this function is guaranteed to return a
persistent identifier of the session since GnuTLS 3.6.4, which may
not necessarily map into the TLS session ID value. Prior to that
version the value could only be considered a persistent identifier,
under TLS1.2 or earlier and when no session tickets were in use.
The session identifier value returned is always less than
‘GNUTLS_MAX_SESSION_ID_SIZE’ and should be treated as constant.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.1.4
Server side
...........
A server enabling both session tickets and a storage for session data
would use session tickets when clients support it and the storage
otherwise.
A storing server needs to specify callback functions to store, retrieve
and delete session data. These can be registered with the functions
below. The stored sessions in the database can be checked using *note
gnutls_db_check_entry:: for expiration.
‘VOID *note gnutls_db_set_retrieve_function:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_db_retr_func RETR_FUNC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_db_set_store_function:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_db_store_func STORE_FUNC)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_db_set_ptr:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void * PTR)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_db_set_remove_function:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_db_remove_func REM_FUNC)’
‘INT *note gnutls_db_check_entry:: (gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_datum_t SESSION_ENTRY)’
A server supporting session tickets must generate ticket encryption and
authentication keys using *note gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate::.
Those keys should be associated with the GnuTLS session using *note
gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server::.
Those will be the initial keys, but GnuTLS will rotate them regularly.
The key rotation interval can be changed with *note
gnutls_db_set_cache_expiration:: and will be set to three times the
ticket expiration time (ie. three times the value given in that
function). Every such interval, new keys will be generated from those
initial keys. This is a necessary mechanism to prevent the keys from
becoming long-term keys and as such preserve forward-secrecy in the
issued session tickets. If no explicit key rotation interval is
provided, GnuTLS will rotate them every 18 hours by default.
The master key can be shared between processes or between systems.
Processes which share the same master key will generate the same rotated
subkeys, assuming they share the same time (irrespective of timezone
differences).
-- Function: int gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, const gnutls_datum_t * KEY)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
KEY: key to encrypt session parameters.
Request that the server should attempt session resumption using
session tickets, i.e., by delegating storage to the client. ‘key’
must be initialized using ‘gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate()’ .
To avoid leaking that key, use ‘gnutls_memset()’ prior to releasing
it.
The default ticket expiration time can be overridden using
‘gnutls_db_set_cache_expiration()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or an
error code.
*Since:* 2.10.0
-- Function: int gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate (gnutls_datum_t *
KEY)
KEY: is a pointer to a ‘gnutls_datum_t’ which will contain a newly
created key.
Generate a random key to encrypt security parameters within
SessionTicket.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or an
error code.
*Since:* 2.10.0
-- Function: int gnutls_session_resumption_requested (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Check whether the client has asked for session resumption. This
function is valid only on server side.
*Returns:* non zero if session resumption was asked, or a zero if
not.
The expiration time for session resumption, either in tickets or stored
data is set using *note gnutls_db_set_cache_expiration::. This function
also controls the ticket key rotation period. Currently, the session
key rotation interval is set to 3 times the expiration time set by this
function.
Under TLS 1.3, the server sends by default 2 tickets, and can send
additional session tickets at any time using *note
gnutls_session_ticket_send::.
-- Function: int gnutls_session_ticket_send (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned NR, unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
NR: the number of tickets to send
FLAGS: must be zero
Sends a fresh session ticket to the peer. This is relevant only in
server side under TLS1.3. This function may also return
‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ and in that case it must
be called again.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or a negative error code.

6.12.3 Certificate verification
-------------------------------
In this section the functionality for additional certificate
verification methods is listed. These methods are intended to be used
in addition to normal PKI verification, in order to reduce the risk of a
compromised CA being undetected.
6.12.3.1 Trust on first use
...........................
The GnuTLS library includes functionality to use an SSH-like trust on
first use authentication. The available functions to store and verify
public keys are listed below.
-- Function: int gnutls_verify_stored_pubkey (const char * DB_NAME,
gnutls_tdb_t TDB, const char * HOST, const char * SERVICE,
gnutls_certificate_type_t CERT_TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t *
CERT, unsigned int FLAGS)
DB_NAME: A file specifying the stored keys (use NULL for the
default)
TDB: A storage structure or NULL to use the default
HOST: The peer’s name
SERVICE: non-NULL if this key is specific to a service (e.g. http)
CERT_TYPE: The type of the certificate
CERT: The raw (der) data of the certificate
FLAGS: should be 0.
This function will try to verify a raw public-key or a public-key
provided via a raw (DER-encoded) certificate using a list of stored
public keys. The ‘service’ field if non-NULL should be a port
number.
The ‘db_name’ variable if non-null specifies a custom backend for
the retrieval of entries. If it is NULL then the default file
backend will be used. In POSIX-like systems the file backend uses
the $HOME/.gnutls/known_hosts file.
Note that if the custom storage backend is provided the retrieval
function should return ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ if the
host/service pair is found but key doesn’t match,
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_FOUND’ if no such host/service with the
given key is found, and 0 if it was found. The storage function
should return 0 on success.
As of GnuTLS 3.6.6 this function also verifies raw public keys.
*Returns:* If no associated public key is found then
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_FOUND’ will be returned. If a key is
found but does not match ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ is
returned. On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or a
negative error value on other errors.
*Since:* 3.0.13
-- Function: int gnutls_store_pubkey (const char * DB_NAME,
gnutls_tdb_t TDB, const char * HOST, const char * SERVICE,
gnutls_certificate_type_t CERT_TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t *
CERT, time_t EXPIRATION, unsigned int FLAGS)
DB_NAME: A file specifying the stored keys (use NULL for the
default)
TDB: A storage structure or NULL to use the default
HOST: The peer’s name
SERVICE: non-NULL if this key is specific to a service (e.g. http)
CERT_TYPE: The type of the certificate
CERT: The data of the certificate
EXPIRATION: The expiration time (use 0 to disable expiration)
FLAGS: should be 0.
This function will store a raw public-key or a public-key provided
via a raw (DER-encoded) certificate to the list of stored public
keys. The key will be considered valid until the provided
expiration time.
The ‘tdb’ variable if non-null specifies a custom backend for the
storage of entries. If it is NULL then the default file backend
will be used.
Unless an alternative ‘tdb’ is provided, the storage format is a
textual format consisting of a line for each host with fields
separated by ’|’. The contents of the fields are a
format-identifier which is set to ’g0’, the hostname that the rest
of the data applies to, the numeric port or host name, the
expiration time in seconds since the epoch (0 for no expiration),
and a base64 encoding of the raw (DER) public key information
(SPKI) of the peer.
As of GnuTLS 3.6.6 this function also accepts raw public keys.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.0.13
In addition to the above the *note gnutls_store_commitment:: can be used
to implement a key-pinning architecture as in [*note KEYPIN::]. This
provides a way for web server to commit on a public key that is not yet
active.
-- Function: int gnutls_store_commitment (const char * DB_NAME,

HASH_ALGO: The hash algorithm type
HASH: The raw hash
EXPIRATION: The expiration time (use 0 to disable expiration)
FLAGS: should be 0 or ‘GNUTLS_SCOMMIT_FLAG_ALLOW_BROKEN’ .
This function will store the provided hash commitment to the list
of stored public keys. The key with the given hash will be
considered valid until the provided expiration time.
The ‘tdb’ variable if non-null specifies a custom backend for the
storage of entries. If it is NULL then the default file backend
will be used.
Note that this function is not thread safe with the default
backend.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.0
The storage and verification functions may be used with the default text
file based back-end, or another back-end may be specified. That should
contain storage and retrieval functions and specified as below.

6.12.3.2 DANE verification
..........................
Since the DANE library is not included in GnuTLS it requires programs to
be linked against it. This can be achieved with the following commands.
gcc -o foo foo.c `pkg-config gnutls-dane --cflags --libs`
When a program uses the GNU autoconf system, then the following line or
similar can be used to detect the presence of the library.
PKG_CHECK_MODULES([LIBDANE], [gnutls-dane >= 3.0.0])
AC_SUBST([LIBDANE_CFLAGS])
AC_SUBST([LIBDANE_LIBS])
The high level functionality provided by the DANE library is shown
below.
-- Function: int dane_verify_crt (dane_state_t S, const gnutls_datum_t
* CHAIN, unsigned CHAIN_SIZE, gnutls_certificate_type_t
CHAIN_TYPE, const char * HOSTNAME, const char * PROTO,
unsigned int PORT, unsigned int SFLAGS, unsigned int VFLAGS,
unsigned int * VERIFY)
S: A DANE state structure (may be NULL)
CHAIN: A certificate chain
CHAIN_SIZE: The size of the chain
CHAIN_TYPE: The type of the certificate chain
HOSTNAME: The hostname associated with the chain
PROTO: The protocol of the service connecting (e.g. tcp)
PORT: The port of the service connecting (e.g. 443)
SFLAGS: Flags for the initialization of ‘s’ (if NULL)
VFLAGS: Verification flags; an OR’ed list of ‘dane_verify_flags_t’
.
VERIFY: An OR’ed list of ‘dane_verify_status_t’ .
This function will verify the given certificate chain against the
CA constrains and/or the certificate available via DANE. If no
information via DANE can be obtained the flag
‘DANE_VERIFY_NO_DANE_INFO’ is set. If a DNSSEC signature is not
available for the DANE record then the verify flag
‘DANE_VERIFY_NO_DNSSEC_DATA’ is set.
Due to the many possible options of DANE, there is no single threat
model countered. When notifying the user about DANE verification
results it may be better to mention: DANE verification did not
reject the certificate, rather than mentioning a successful DANE
verication.
Note that this function is designed to be run in addition to PKIX -
certificate chain - verification. To be run independently the
‘DANE_VFLAG_ONLY_CHECK_EE_USAGE’ flag should be specified; then the
function will check whether the key of the peer matches the key
advertized in the DANE entry.
*Returns:* a negative error code on error and ‘DANE_E_SUCCESS’ (0)
when the DANE entries were successfully parsed, irrespective of
whether they were verified (see ‘verify’ for that information). If
no usable entries were encountered
‘DANE_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ will be returned.
‘INT *note dane_verify_session_crt:: (dane_state_t S, gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, const char * PROTO, unsigned int PORT, unsigned int SFLAGS, unsigned int VFLAGS, unsigned int * VERIFY)’
‘CONST CHAR * *note dane_strerror:: (int ERROR)’
Note that the ‘dane_state_t’ structure that is accepted by both
verification functions is optional. It is required when many queries
are performed to optimize against multiple re-initializations of the
resolving back-end and loading of DNSSEC keys.
The following flags are returned by the verify functions to indicate the
status of the verification.
‘DANE_VERIFY_CA_CONSTRAINTS_VIOLATED’
The CA constraints were violated.
‘DANE_VERIFY_CERT_DIFFERS’
The certificate obtained via DNS differs.
‘DANE_VERIFY_UNKNOWN_DANE_INFO’
No known DANE data was found in the DNS record.
Figure 6.3: The DANE verification status flags.
In order to generate a DANE TLSA entry to use in a DNS server you may
use danetool (see *note danetool Invocation::).

6.12.4 TLS 1.2 re-authentication
--------------------------------
In TLS 1.2 or earlier there is no distinction between re-key,
re-authentication, and re-negotiation. All of these use cases are
handled by the TLS’ rehandshake process. For that reason in GnuTLS
rehandshake is not transparent to the application, and the application
must explicitly take control of that process. In addition GnuTLS since
version 3.5.0 will not allow the peer to switch identities during a
rehandshake. The threat addressed by that behavior depends on the
application protocol, but primarily it protects applications from being
misled by a rehandshake which switches the peer’s identity.
Applications can disable this protection by using the
‘GNUTLS_ALLOW_ID_CHANGE’ flag in *note gnutls_init::.
The following paragraphs explain how to safely use the rehandshake
process.
6.12.4.1 Client side
....................
According to the TLS specification a client may initiate a rehandshake
at any time. That can be achieved by calling *note gnutls_handshake::
and rely on its return value for the outcome of the handshake (the
server may deny a rehandshake). If a server requests a re-handshake,
then a call to *note gnutls_record_recv:: will return
GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE in the client, instructing it to call *note
gnutls_handshake::. To deny a rehandshake request by the server it is
recommended to send a warning alert of type GNUTLS_A_NO_RENEGOTIATION.
Due to limitations of early protocol versions, it is required to check
whether safe renegotiation is in place, i.e., using *note
gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status::, which ensures that the server
remains the same as the initial.
To make re-authentication transparent to the application when requested
by the server, use the ‘GNUTLS_AUTO_REAUTH’ flag on the *note
gnutls_init:: call. In that case the re-authentication will happen in
the call of *note gnutls_record_recv:: that received the
reauthentication request.
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Can be used to check whether safe renegotiation is being used in
the current session.
*Returns:* 0 when safe renegotiation is not used and non (0) when
safe renegotiation is used.
*Since:* 2.10.0
6.12.4.2 Server side
....................
A server which wants to instruct the client to re-authenticate, should
call *note gnutls_rehandshake:: and wait for the client to
re-authenticate. It is recommended to only request re-handshake when
safe renegotiation is enabled for that session (see *note
gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status:: and the discussion in *note Safe
renegotiation::). A server could also encounter the
GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE error code while receiving data. That indicates a
client-initiated re-handshake request. In that case the server could
ignore that request, perform handshake (unsafe when done generally), or
even drop the connection.
-- Function: int gnutls_rehandshake (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function can only be called in server side, and instructs a
TLS 1.2 or earlier client to renegotiate parameters (perform a
handshake), by sending a hello request message.
If this function succeeds, the calling application should call
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ until ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ is returned to
clear any pending data. If the ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ error code
is not seen, then the handshake request was not followed by the
peer (the TLS protocol does not require the client to do, and such
compliance should be handled by the application protocol).
Once the ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ error code is seen, the calling
application should proceed to calling ‘gnutls_handshake()’ to
negotiate the new parameters.
If the client does not wish to renegotiate parameters he may reply
with an alert message, and in that case the return code seen by
subsequent ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ will be
‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ with the specific alert being
‘GNUTLS_A_NO_RENEGOTIATION’ . A client may also choose to ignore
this request.
Under TLS 1.3 this function is equivalent to
‘gnutls_session_key_update()’ with the ‘GNUTLS_KU_PEER’ flag. In
that case subsequent calls to ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ will not
return ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ , and calls to ‘gnutls_handshake()’
in server side are a no-op.
This function always fails with ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ when
called in client side.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code.
File: gnutls.info, Node: TLS 1.3 re-authentication and re-key, Next: Parameter generation, Prev: TLS 1.2 re-authentication, Up: Advanced topics
6.12.5 TLS 1.3 re-authentication and re-key
-------------------------------------------
The TLS 1.3 protocol distinguishes between re-key and re-authentication.
The re-key process ensures that fresh keys are supplied to the already
negotiated parameters, and on GnuTLS can be initiated using *note
gnutls_session_key_update::. The re-key process can be one-way (i.e.,
the calling party only changes its keys), or two-way where the peer is
requested to change keys as well.
The re-authentication process, allows the connected client to switch
identity by presenting a new certificate. Unlike TLS 1.2, the server is
not allowed to change identities. That client re-authentication, or
post-handshake authentication can be initiated only by the server using
*note gnutls_reauth::, and only if a client has advertized support for
it. Both server and client have to explicitly enable support for post
handshake authentication using the ‘GNUTLS_POST_HANDSHAKE_AUTH’ flag at
*note gnutls_init::.
A client receiving a re-authentication request will "see" the error code
‘GNUTLS_E_REAUTH_REQUEST’ at *note gnutls_record_recv::. At this point,
it should also call *note gnutls_reauth::.
To make re-authentication transparent to the application when requested
by the server, use the ‘GNUTLS_AUTO_REAUTH’ and
‘GNUTLS_POST_HANDSHAKE_AUTH’ flags on the *note gnutls_init:: call. In
that case the re-authentication will happen in the call of *note
gnutls_record_recv:: that received the reauthentication request.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Parameter generation, Next: Deriving keys for other applications/protocols, Prev: TLS 1.3 re-authentication and re-key, Up: Advanced topics
6.12.6 Parameter generation
---------------------------
Prior to GnuTLS 3.6.0 for the ephemeral or anonymous Diffie-Hellman (DH)
TLS ciphersuites the application was required to generate or provide DH
parameters. That is no longer necessary as GnuTLS utilizes DH
parameters and negotiation from [*note RFC7919::].
Applications can tune the used parameters by explicitly specifying them
in the priority string. In server side applications can set the minimum
acceptable level of DH parameters by calling *note
gnutls_certificate_set_known_dh_params::, *note
gnutls_anon_set_server_known_dh_params::, or *note
gnutls_psk_set_server_known_dh_params::, depending on the type of the
credentials, to set the lower acceptable parameter limits. Typical
applications should rely on the default settings.
‘INT *note gnutls_certificate_set_known_dh_params:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, gnutls_sec_param_t SEC_PARAM)’
‘INT *note gnutls_anon_set_server_known_dh_params:: (gnutls_anon_server_credentials_t RES, gnutls_sec_param_t SEC_PARAM)’
‘INT *note gnutls_psk_set_server_known_dh_params:: (gnutls_psk_server_credentials_t RES, gnutls_sec_param_t SEC_PARAM)’
6.12.6.1 Legacy parameter generation
....................................
Note that older than 3.5.6 versions of GnuTLS provided functions to
generate or import arbitrary DH parameters from a file. This practice
is still supported but discouraged in current versions. There is no
known advantage from using random parameters, while there have been
several occasions where applications were utilizing incorrect, weak or
insecure parameters. This is the main reason GnuTLS includes the
well-known parameters of [*note RFC7919::] and recommends applications
utilizing them.
In older applications which require to specify explicit DH parameters,
we recommend using ‘certtool’ (of GnuTLS 3.5.6 or later) with the
‘--get-dh-params’ option to obtain the FFDHE parameters discussed above.
The output parameters of the tool are in PKCS#3 format and can be
imported by most existing applications.
The following functions are still supported but considered obsolete.
‘INT *note gnutls_dh_params_generate2:: (gnutls_dh_params_t DPARAMS, unsigned int BITS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_dh_params_import_pkcs3:: (gnutls_dh_params_t PARAMS, const gnutls_datum_t * PKCS3_PARAMS, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_certificate_set_dh_params:: (gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, gnutls_dh_params_t DH_PARAMS)’
File: gnutls.info, Node: Deriving keys for other applications/protocols, Next: Channel Bindings, Prev: Parameter generation, Up: Advanced topics
6.12.7 Deriving keys for other applications/protocols
-----------------------------------------------------
In several cases, after a TLS connection is established, it is desirable
to derive keys to be used in another application or protocol (e.g., in
an other TLS session using pre-shared keys). The following describe
GnuTLS’ implementation of RFC5705 to extract keys based on a session’s
master secret.
The API to use is *note gnutls_prf_rfc5705::. The function needs to be
provided with a label, and additional context data to mix in the
‘context’ parameter.
-- Function: int gnutls_prf_rfc5705 (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t
LABEL_SIZE, const char * LABEL, size_t CONTEXT_SIZE, const
char * CONTEXT, size_t OUTSIZE, char * OUT)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
LABEL_SIZE: length of the ‘label’ variable.
LABEL: label used in PRF computation, typically a short string.
CONTEXT_SIZE: length of the ‘extra’ variable.
CONTEXT: optional extra data to seed the PRF with.
OUTSIZE: size of pre-allocated output buffer to hold the output.
OUT: pre-allocated buffer to hold the generated data.
Exports keying material from TLS/DTLS session to an application, as
specified in RFC5705.
In the TLS versions prior to 1.3, it applies the TLS
Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF) on the master secret and the provided
data, seeded with the client and server random fields.
In TLS 1.3, it applies HKDF on the exporter master secret derived
from the master secret.
The ‘label’ variable usually contains a string denoting the purpose
for the generated data.
The ‘context’ variable can be used to add more data to the seed,
after the random variables. It can be used to make sure the
generated output is strongly connected to some additional data
(e.g., a string used in user authentication).
The output is placed in ‘out’ , which must be pre-allocated.
Note that, to provide the RFC5705 context, the ‘context’ variable
must be non-null.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
*Since:* 3.4.4
For example, after establishing a TLS session using *note
gnutls_handshake::, you can obtain 32-bytes to be used as key, using
this call:
#define MYLABEL "EXPORTER-My-protocol-name"
#define MYCONTEXT "my-protocol's-1st-session"
char out[32];
rc = gnutls_prf_rfc5705 (session, sizeof(MYLABEL)-1, MYLABEL,
sizeof(MYCONTEXT)-1, MYCONTEXT, 32, out);
The output key depends on TLS’ master secret, and is the same on both
client and server.
For legacy applications which need to use a more flexible API, there is
*note gnutls_prf::, which in addition, allows to switch the mix of the
client and server random nonces, using the ‘server_random_first’
parameter. For additional flexibility and low-level access to the
TLS1.2 PRF, there is a low-level TLS PRF interface called *note
gnutls_prf_raw::. That however is not functional under newer protocol
versions.

6.12.8 Channel bindings
-----------------------
In user authentication protocols (e.g., EAP or SASL mechanisms) it is
useful to have a unique string that identifies the secure channel that
is used, to bind together the user authentication with the secure
channel. This can protect against man-in-the-middle attacks in some
situations. That unique string is called a “channel binding”. For
background and discussion see [*note RFC5056::].
In GnuTLS you can extract a channel binding using the *note
gnutls_session_channel_binding:: function. Currently only the following
types are supported:
• ‘GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE’: corresponds to the ‘tls-unique’ channel
binding for TLS defined in [*note RFC5929::]
• ‘GNUTLS_CB_TLS_EXPORTER’: corresponds to the ‘tls-exporter’ channel
binding for TLS defined in [*note RFC9266::]
The following example describes how to print the channel binding data.
Note that it must be run after a successful TLS handshake.
{
gnutls_datum_t cb;
int rc;
rc = gnutls_session_channel_binding (session,
GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE,
&cb);
if (rc)
fprintf (stderr, "Channel binding error: %s\n",
gnutls_strerror (rc));
else
{
size_t i;
printf ("- Channel binding 'tls-unique': ");
for (i = 0; i < cb.size; i++)
printf ("%02x", cb.data[i]);
printf ("\n");
}
}

6.12.9 Interoperability
-----------------------
The TLS protocols support many ciphersuites, extensions and version
numbers. As a result, few implementations are not able to properly
interoperate once faced with extensions or version protocols they do not
support and understand. The TLS protocol allows for a graceful
downgrade to the commonly supported options, but practice shows it is
not always implemented correctly.
Because there is no way to achieve maximum interoperability with broken
peers without sacrificing security, GnuTLS ignores such peers by
default. This might not be acceptable in cases where maximum
compatibility is required. Thus we allow enabling compatibility with
broken peers using priority strings (see *note Priority Strings::). A
conservative priority string that would disable certain TLS protocol
options that are known to cause compatibility problems, is shown below.
NORMAL:%COMPAT
For very old broken peers that do not tolerate TLS version numbers over
TLS 1.0 another priority string is:
NORMAL:-VERS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.0:+VERS-SSL3.0:%COMPAT
This priority string will in addition to above, only enable SSL 3.0 and
TLS 1.0 as protocols.
File: gnutls.info, Node: Compatibility with the OpenSSL library, Prev: Interoperability, Up: Advanced topics
6.12.10 Compatibility with the OpenSSL library
----------------------------------------------
To ease GnuTLS’ integration with existing applications, a compatibility
layer with the OpenSSL library is included in the ‘gnutls-openssl’
library. This compatibility layer is not complete and it is not
intended to completely re-implement the OpenSSL API with GnuTLS. It
only provides limited source-level compatibility.
The prototypes for the compatibility functions are in the
‘gnutls/openssl.h’ header file. The limitations imposed by the
compatibility layer include:
• Error handling is not thread safe.

Let’s assume now that we want to create a TCP client which communicates
with servers that use X.509 certificate authentication. The following
client is a very simple TLS client, which uses the high level
verification functions for certificates, but does not support session
resumption.
Note that this client utilizes functionality present in the latest
GnuTLS version. For a reasonably portable version see *note Legacy

7.3.1 Client example with anonymous authentication
--------------------------------------------------
The simplest client using TLS is the one that doesn’t do any
authentication. This means no external certificates or passwords are
needed to set up the connection. As could be expected, the connection
is vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (active or redirection) attacks.
However, the data are integrity protected and encrypted from passive
eavesdroppers.
Note that due to the vulnerable nature of this method very few public
servers support it.

8 System-wide configuration of the library
******************************************
GnuTLS 3.6.9 introduced a system-wide configuration of the library which
can be used to disable or mark algorithms and protocols as insecure
system-wide, overriding the library defaults. The format of this
configuration file is of an INI file, with the hash (’#’) allowed for
commenting. It intentionally does not allow switching algorithms or
protocols which were disabled or marked as insecure during compile time
to the secure set. This is to prevent the feature from being used to
attack the system. Unknown options or sections in the configuration
file are skipped unless the environment variable
‘GNUTLS_SYSTEM_PRIORITY_FAIL_ON_INVALID’ is set to 1, where it would
cause the library to exit on unknown options.
The location of the default configuration file is
‘/usr/local/etc/gnutls/config’, but its actual location may be
overridden during compile time or at run-time using the
‘GNUTLS_SYSTEM_PRIORITY_FILE’ environment variable. The file used can
be queried using *note gnutls_get_system_config_file::.
-- Function: const char * gnutls_get_system_config_file ( VOID)
Returns the filename of the system wide configuration file to be
loaded by the library.
*Returns:* a constant pointer to the config file path
*Since:* 3.6.9

File: gnutls.info, Node: Application-specific priority strings, Next: Disabling algorithms and protocols, Up: System-wide configuration of the library
8.1 Application-specific priority strings
=========================================
It is possible to specify custom cipher priority strings, in addition to
the default priority strings (‘NORMAL’, ‘PERFORMANCE’, etc.). These can
be used either by individual applications, or even as the default option
if the library is compiled with the configuration option
‘--with-default-priority-string’. In the latter case the defined
priority string will be used for applications using *note
gnutls_set_default_priority:: or *note
gnutls_set_default_priority_append::.
The priority strings can be specified in the global section of the
configuration file, or in the section named ‘[priorities]’. The format
is ’‘KEYWORD = VALUE’’, e.g.,
When used they may be followed by additional options that will be
appended to the system string (e.g., ’‘@EXAMPLE-PRIORITY:+SRP’’).
’‘EXAMPLE-PRIORITY=NORMAL:+ARCFOUR-128’’. Since version 3.5.1
applications are allowed to specify fallback keywords such as
@KEYWORD1,@KEYWORD2, and the first valid keyword will be used.
The following example configuration defines a priority string called
‘@SYSTEM’. When set, its full settings can be queried using ‘gnutls-cli
--priority @SYSTEM --list’.
[priorities]
SYSTEM = NORMAL:-AES-128-CBC:-AES-256-CBC
File: gnutls.info, Node: Disabling algorithms and protocols, Next: Querying for disabled algorithms and protocols, Prev: Application-specific priority strings, Up: System-wide configuration of the library
8.2 Disabling algorithms and protocols
======================================
The approach above works well to create consistent system-wide settings
for cooperative GnuTLS applications. When an application however does
not use the *note gnutls_set_default_priority:: or *note
gnutls_set_default_priority_append:: functions, the method is not
sufficient to prevent applications from using protocols or algorithms
forbidden by a local policy. The override method described below
enables the deprecation of algorithms and protocols system-wide for all
applications.
The available options must be set in the ‘[overrides]’ section of the
configuration file and can be
• ‘insecure-sig-for-cert’: to mark the signature algorithm as
insecure when used in certificates.
• ‘insecure-sig’: to mark the signature algorithm as insecure for any
use.
• ‘insecure-hash’: to mark the hash algorithm as insecure for digital
signature use (provides a more generic way to disable digital
signatures for broken hash algorithms).
• ‘disabled-curve’: to disable the specified elliptic curve.
• ‘disabled-version’: to disable the specified TLS versions.
• ‘tls-disabled-cipher’: to disable the specified ciphers for use in
the TLS or DTLS protocols.
• ‘tls-disabled-mac’: to disable the specified MAC algorithms for use
in the TLS or DTLS protocols.
• ‘tls-disabled-group’: to disable the specified group for use in the
TLS or DTLS protocols.
• ‘tls-disabled-kx’: to disable the specified key exchange algorithms
for use in the TLS or DTLS protocols (applies to TLS1.2 or
earlier).
Each of the options can be repeated multiple times when multiple values
need to be disabled or enabled.
The valid values for the options above can be found in the ’Protocols’,
’Digests’ ’PK-signatures’, ’Protocols’, ’Ciphers’, and ’MACs’ fields of
the output of ‘gnutls-cli --list’.
Sometimes the system administrator wants to enable only specific
algorithms, despite the library defaults. GnuTLS provides an
alternative mode of overriding: allowlisting.
As shown below in the examples, it is hard to use this mode correctly,
as it requires understanding of how algorithms are used underneath by
the protocols. Allowlisting configuration mode is intended to be used
by the operating system vendors that prefer laying out the library
defaults exhaustively from scratch instead on depending on gnutls
presets, such as ‘NORMAL’. Applications are then expected to optionally
disable or enable only a subset algorithms on top of the vendor-provided
configuration.
In the allowlisting mode, all the algorithms are initially marked as
insecure or disabled, and shall be explicitly turned on by the options
listed below in the ‘[overrides]’ section. As the allowlisting mode is
mutually exclusive to the blocklisting mode, the options listed above
for the blocklisting mode are forbidden in the allowlisting mode, and
vice versa.
• ‘secure-sig-for-cert’: to mark the signature algorithm as secure
when used in certificates.
• ‘secure-sig’: to mark the signature algorithm as secure for any
use.
• ‘secure-hash’: to mark the hash algorithm as secure for digital
signature use (provides a more generic way to enable digital
signatures for broken hash algorithms).
• ‘enabled-curve’: to enable the specified elliptic curve.
• ‘enabled-version’: to enable the specified TLS versions.
• ‘tls-enabled-cipher’: to enable the specified ciphers for use in
the TLS or DTLS protocols.
• ‘tls-enabled-mac’: to enable the specified MAC algorithms for use
in the TLS or DTLS protocols.
• ‘tls-enabled-group’: to enable the specified group for use in the
TLS or DTLS protocols.
• ‘tls-enabled-kx’: to enable the specified key exchange algorithms
for use in the TLS or DTLS protocols (applies to TLS1.2 or
earlier).
The allowlisting mode can be enabled by adding ‘override-mode =
allowlist’ in the ‘[global]’ section.
The following functions allow the applications to modify the setting.
‘INT *note gnutls_ecc_curve_set_enabled:: (gnutls_ecc_curve_t CURVE, unsigned int ENABLED)’
‘INT *note gnutls_sign_set_secure:: (gnutls_sign_algorithm_t SIGN, unsigned int SECURE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_sign_set_secure_for_certs:: (gnutls_sign_algorithm_t SIGN, unsigned int SECURE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_digest_set_secure:: (gnutls_digest_algorithm_t DIG, unsigned int SECURE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_protocol_set_enabled:: (gnutls_protocol_t VERSION, unsigned int ENABLED)’
When the allowlisting mode is in effect, a ‘@SYSTEM’ priority string is
automatically constructed from the options in the ‘[overrides]’ section.
For this reason, the above functions should be called before the
‘@SYSTEM’ priority is used.
8.2.1 Examples
--------------
The following example marks as insecure all digital signature algorithms
which depend on SHA384, as well as the RSA-SHA1 signature algorithm.
[overrides]
insecure-hash = sha384
insecure-sig = rsa-sha1
The following example marks RSA-SHA256 as insecure for use in
certificates and disables the TLS1.0 and TLS1.1 protocols.
[overrides]
insecure-sig-for-cert = rsa-sha256
disabled-version = tls1.0
disabled-version = tls1.1
The following example disables the ‘AES-128-CBC’ and ‘AES-256-CBC’
ciphers, the ‘HMAC-SHA1’ MAC algorithm and the ‘GROUP-FFDHE8192’ group
for TLS and DTLS protocols.
[overrides]
tls-disabled-cipher = aes-128-cbc
tls-disabled-cipher = aes-256-cbc
tls-disabled-mac = sha1
tls-disabled-group = group-ffdhe8192
The following example demonstrates the use of the allowlisting mode.
All the signature algorithms are disabled by default but ‘RSA-SHA256’.
Note that the hash algorithm ‘SHA256’ also needs to be explicitly
enabled.
[global]
override-mode = allowlist
[overrides]
secure-hash = sha256
secure-sig = rsa-sha256
To enable a TLS ciphersuite in the allowlist mode requires a more
verbose configuration, explicitly listing algorithm dependencies. The
following example enables TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256, using the SECP256R1
curve for signing and key exchange.
[global]
override-mode = allowlist
[overrides]
secure-hash = sha256
enabled-curve = secp256r1
secure-sig = ecdsa-secp256r1-sha256
enabled-version = tls1.3
tls-enabled-cipher = aes-128-gcm
tls-enabled-mac = aead
tls-enabled-group = secp256r1
File: gnutls.info, Node: Querying for disabled algorithms and protocols, Next: Overriding the parameter verification profile, Prev: Disabling algorithms and protocols, Up: System-wide configuration of the library
8.3 Querying for disabled algorithms and protocols
==================================================
When necessary applications can query whether a particular algorithm or
protocol has been marked as insecure or disabled system-wide. Digital
signatures can be queried using the following algorithms.
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_sign_is_secure:: (gnutls_sign_algorithm_t ALGORITHM)’
‘UNSIGNED *note gnutls_sign_is_secure2:: (gnutls_sign_algorithm_t ALGORITHM, unsigned int FLAGS)’
Any disabled protocol versions or elliptic curves will not show up in
the lists provided by the following functions.
‘CONST GNUTLS_PROTOCOL_T * *note gnutls_protocol_list:: ( VOID)’
‘CONST GNUTLS_GROUP_T * *note gnutls_group_list:: ( VOID)’
‘CONST GNUTLS_ECC_CURVE_T * *note gnutls_ecc_curve_list:: ( VOID)’
It is not possible to query for insecure hash algorithms directly (only
indirectly through the signature API).
File: gnutls.info, Node: Overriding the parameter verification profile, Next: Overriding the default priority string, Prev: Querying for disabled algorithms and protocols, Up: System-wide configuration of the library
8.4 Overriding the parameter verification profile
=================================================
When verifying a certificate or TLS session parameters, GnuTLS uses a
set of profiles associated with the session to determine whether the
parameters seen in the session are acceptable. For example, whether the
RSA public key size as seen on the wire, or the Diffie-Hellman
parameters for the session. These profiles are normally set using the
‘%PROFILE’ priority string (see *note Priority Strings:: and *note
Selecting cryptographic key sizes::).
It is possible to set the low bar profile that applications cannot
override using the following.
[overrides]
# do not allow applications use the LOW or VERY-WEAK profiles.
min-verification-profile = legacy
File: gnutls.info, Node: Overriding the default priority string, Next: Enabling/Disabling system/acceleration protocols, Prev: Overriding the parameter verification profile, Up: System-wide configuration of the library
8.5 Overriding the default priority string
==========================================
GnuTLS uses default priority string which is defined at compiled time.
Usually it is set to ‘NORMAL’. This override allows to set the default
priority string to something more appropriate for a given deployment.
Below example sets a more specific default priority string.
[overrides]
default-priority-string = SECURE128:-VERS-TLS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.3
File: gnutls.info, Node: Enabling/Disabling system/acceleration protocols, Prev: Overriding the default priority string, Up: System-wide configuration of the library
8.6 Enabling/Disabling system/acceleration protocols
====================================================
The following options can overwrite default behavior of protocols
system-wide.
[global]
ktls = true
8.6.1 Enabling KTLS
-------------------
When GnuTLS is build with -–enable-ktls configuration, KTLS is disabled
by default. This can be enabled by setting ‘ktls = true’ in ‘[global]’
section.

*****************************************
GnuTLS is not a low-level cryptographic library, i.e., it does not
provide access to basic cryptographic primitives. However it abstracts
the internal cryptographic back-end (see *note Cryptographic Backend::),
providing symmetric crypto, hash and HMAC algorithms, as well access to
the random number generation. For a low-level crypto API the usage of
nettle (1) library is recommended.

========================
The available functions to access symmetric crypto algorithms operations
are listed in the sections below. The supported algorithms are the
algorithms required by the TLS protocol. They are listed in *note

ciphers, the ones providing an authenticated-encryption with associated

Authenticated-encryption API
----------------------------
The AEAD API provides access to all ciphers supported by GnuTLS which
support authenticated encryption with associated data; these ciphers are
marked with the AEAD keyword on the table above. The AEAD cipher API is
particularly suitable for message or packet-encryption as it provides
authentication and encryption on the same API. See ‘RFC5116’ for more
information on authenticated encryption.
‘INT *note gnutls_aead_cipher_init:: (gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t * HANDLE, gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t CIPHER, const gnutls_datum_t * KEY)’
‘INT *note gnutls_aead_cipher_encrypt:: (gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, const void * NONCE, size_t NONCE_LEN, const void * AUTH, size_t AUTH_LEN, size_t TAG_SIZE, const void * PTEXT, size_t PTEXT_LEN, void * CTEXT, size_t * CTEXT_LEN)’
‘INT *note gnutls_aead_cipher_decrypt:: (gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, const void * NONCE, size_t NONCE_LEN, const void * AUTH, size_t AUTH_LEN, size_t TAG_SIZE, const void * CTEXT, size_t CTEXT_LEN, void * PTEXT, size_t * PTEXT_LEN)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_aead_cipher_deinit:: (gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t HANDLE)’
Because the encryption function above may be difficult to use with
scattered data, we provide the following API.
-- Function: int gnutls_aead_cipher_encryptv (gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t
HANDLE, const void * NONCE, size_t NONCE_LEN, const giovec_t *
AUTH_IOV, int AUTH_IOVCNT, size_t TAG_SIZE, const giovec_t *
IOV, int IOVCNT, void * CTEXT, size_t * CTEXT_LEN)
HANDLE: is a ‘gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t’ type.
NONCE: the nonce to set
NONCE_LEN: The length of the nonce
AUTH_IOV: additional data to be authenticated
AUTH_IOVCNT: The number of buffers in ‘auth_iov’
TAG_SIZE: The size of the tag to use (use zero for the default)
IOV: the data to be encrypted
IOVCNT: The number of buffers in ‘iov’
CTEXT: the encrypted data including authentication tag
CTEXT_LEN: the length of encrypted data (initially must hold the
maximum available size, including space for tag)
This function will encrypt the provided data buffers using the
algorithm specified by the context. The output data will contain
the authentication tag.
*Returns:* Zero or a negative error code on error.
*Since:* 3.6.3
Legacy API
----------
The legacy API provides low-level access to all legacy ciphers supported
by GnuTLS, and some of the AEAD ciphers (e.g., AES-GCM and CHACHA20).
The restrictions of the nettle library implementation of the ciphers
apply verbatim to this API(1).
‘INT *note gnutls_cipher_init:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t * HANDLE, gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t CIPHER, const gnutls_datum_t * KEY, const gnutls_datum_t * IV)’
‘INT *note gnutls_cipher_encrypt2:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, const void * PTEXT, size_t PTEXT_LEN, void * CTEXT, size_t CTEXT_LEN)’
‘INT *note gnutls_cipher_decrypt2:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, const void * CTEXT, size_t CTEXT_LEN, void * PTEXT, size_t PTEXT_LEN)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_cipher_set_iv:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, void * IV, size_t IVLEN)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_cipher_deinit:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t HANDLE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_cipher_add_auth:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, const void * PTEXT, size_t PTEXT_SIZE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_cipher_tag:: (gnutls_cipher_hd_t HANDLE, void * TAG, size_t TAG_SIZE)’
While the latter two functions allow the same API can be used with
authenticated encryption ciphers, it is recommended to use the following
functions which are solely for AEAD ciphers. The latter API is designed
to be simple to use and also hard to misuse, by handling the tag
verification and addition in transparent way.

9.2 Public key algorithms
=========================
Public key cryptography algorithms such as RSA, DSA and ECDSA, are
accessed using the abstract key API in *note Abstract key types::. This
is a high level API with the advantage of transparently handling keys
stored in memory and keys present in smart cards.
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_init:: (gnutls_privkey_t * KEY)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_import_url:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY, const char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_import_x509_raw:: (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, const char * PASSWORD, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_sign_data:: (gnutls_privkey_t SIGNER, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t HASH, unsigned int FLAGS, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_datum_t * SIGNATURE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_privkey_sign_hash:: (gnutls_privkey_t SIGNER, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t HASH_ALGO, unsigned int FLAGS, const gnutls_datum_t * HASH_DATA, gnutls_datum_t * SIGNATURE)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_privkey_deinit:: (gnutls_privkey_t KEY)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_init:: (gnutls_pubkey_t * KEY)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_url:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, const char * URL, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_import_x509:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, unsigned int FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_verify_data2:: (gnutls_pubkey_t PUBKEY, gnutls_sign_algorithm_t ALGO, unsigned int FLAGS, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, const gnutls_datum_t * SIGNATURE)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash2:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY, gnutls_sign_algorithm_t ALGO, unsigned int FLAGS, const gnutls_datum_t * HASH, const gnutls_datum_t * SIGNATURE)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pubkey_deinit:: (gnutls_pubkey_t KEY)’
Keys stored in memory can be imported using functions like *note
gnutls_privkey_import_x509_raw::, while keys on smart cards or HSMs
should be imported using their PKCS#11 URL with *note
gnutls_privkey_import_url::.
If any of the smart card operations require PIN, that should be provided
either by setting the global PIN function (*note
gnutls_pkcs11_set_pin_function::), or better with the targeted to
structures functions such as *note gnutls_privkey_set_pin_function::.
9.2.1 Key generation
--------------------
All supported key types (including RSA, DSA, ECDSA, Ed25519, Ed448) can
be generated with GnuTLS. They can be generated with the simpler *note
gnutls_privkey_generate:: or with the more advanced *note
gnutls_privkey_generate2::.
-- Function: int gnutls_privkey_generate2 (gnutls_privkey_t PKEY,
gnutls_pk_algorithm_t ALGO, unsigned int BITS, unsigned int
FLAGS, const gnutls_keygen_data_st * DATA, unsigned DATA_SIZE)
PKEY: The private key
ALGO: is one of the algorithms in ‘gnutls_pk_algorithm_t’ .
BITS: the size of the modulus
FLAGS: Must be zero or flags from ‘gnutls_privkey_flags_t’ .
DATA: Allow specifying ‘gnutls_keygen_data_st’ types such as the
seed to be used.
DATA_SIZE: The number of ‘data’ available.
This function will generate a random private key. Note that this
function must be called on an initialized private key.
The flag ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_PROVABLE’ instructs the key
generation process to use algorithms like Shawe-Taylor (from FIPS
PUB186-4) which generate provable parameters out of a seed for RSA
and DSA keys. On DSA keys the PQG parameters are generated using
the seed, while on RSA the two primes. To specify an explicit seed
(by default a random seed is used), use the ‘data’ with a
‘GNUTLS_KEYGEN_SEED’ type.
Note that when generating an elliptic curve key, the curve can be
substituted in the place of the bits parameter using the
‘GNUTLS_CURVE_TO_BITS()’ macro.
To export the generated keys in memory or in files it is
recommended to use the PKCS‘8’ form as it can handle all key types,
and can store additional parameters such as the seed, in case of
provable RSA or DSA keys. Generated keys can be exported in memory
using ‘gnutls_privkey_export_x509()’ , and then with
‘gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8()’ .
If key generation is part of your application, avoid setting the
number of bits directly, and instead use
‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ . That way the generated keys will
adapt to the security levels of the underlying GnuTLS library.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.5.0

9.3 Cryptographic Message Syntax / PKCS7
========================================
The CMS or PKCS #7 format is a commonly used format for digital
signatures. PKCS #7 is the name of the original standard when published
by RSA, though today the standard is adopted by IETF under the name CMS.
The standards include multiple ways of signing a digital document, e.g.,
by embedding the data into the signature, or creating detached
signatures of the data, including a timestamp, additional certificates
etc. In certain cases the same format is also used to transport lists
of certificates and CRLs.
It is a relatively popular standard to sign structures, and is being
used to sign in PDF files, as well as for signing kernel modules and
other structures.
In GnuTLS, the basic functions to initialize, deinitialize, import,
export or print information about a PKCS #7 structure are listed below.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_init:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t * PKCS7)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_pkcs7_deinit:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_export2:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT, gnutls_datum_t * OUT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_import:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FORMAT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_print:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7, gnutls_certificate_print_formats_t FORMAT, gnutls_datum_t * OUT)’
The following functions allow the verification of a structure using
either a trust list, or individual certificates. The *note
gnutls_pkcs7_sign:: function is the data signing function.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_verify_direct:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7, gnutls_x509_crt_t SIGNER, unsigned IDX, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, unsigned FLAGS)’
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_verify:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7, gnutls_x509_trust_list_t TL, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * VDATA, unsigned int VDATA_SIZE, unsigned IDX, const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, unsigned FLAGS)’
-- Function: int gnutls_pkcs7_sign (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7,
gnutls_x509_crt_t SIGNER, gnutls_privkey_t SIGNER_KEY, const
gnutls_datum_t * DATA, gnutls_pkcs7_attrs_t SIGNED_ATTRS,
gnutls_pkcs7_attrs_t UNSIGNED_ATTRS, gnutls_digest_algorithm_t
DIG, unsigned FLAGS)
PKCS7: should contain a ‘gnutls_pkcs7_t’ type
SIGNER: the certificate to sign the structure
SIGNER_KEY: the key to sign the structure
DATA: The data to be signed or ‘NULL’ if the data are already
embedded
SIGNED_ATTRS: Any additional attributes to be included in the
signed ones (or ‘NULL’ )
UNSIGNED_ATTRS: Any additional attributes to be included in the
unsigned ones (or ‘NULL’ )
DIG: The digest algorithm to use for signing
FLAGS: Should be zero or one of ‘GNUTLS_PKCS7’ flags
This function will add a signature in the provided PKCS ‘7’
structure for the provided data. Multiple signatures can be made
with different signers.
The available flags are: ‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_EMBED_DATA’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_INCLUDE_TIME’ , ‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_INCLUDE_CERT’ , and
‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_WRITE_SPKI’ . They are explained in the
‘gnutls_pkcs7_sign_flags’ definition.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.4.2
‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_EMBED_DATA’
The signed data will be embedded in the structure.
‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_INCLUDE_TIME’
The signing time will be included in the structure.
‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_INCLUDE_CERT’
The signer’s certificate will be included in the cert list.
‘GNUTLS_PKCS7_WRITE_SPKI’
Use the signer’s key identifier instead of name.
Figure 9.2: Flags applicable to gnutls_pkcs7_sign()
Other helper functions which allow to access the signatures, or
certificates attached in the structure are listed below.
‘INT *note gnutls_pkcs7_get_signature_count:: (gnutls_pkcs7_t PKCS7)’

9.6 Overriding algorithms
=========================
In systems which provide a hardware accelerated cipher implementation
that is not directly supported by GnuTLS, it is possible to utilize it.
There are functions which allow overriding the default cipher, digest
and MAC implementations. Those are described below.
To override public key operations see *note Abstract private keys::.

Connecting using PSK authentication
-----------------------------------
To connect to a server using PSK authentication, you need to enable the
choice of PSK by using a cipher priority parameter such as in the
example below.
$ ./gnutls-cli -p 5556 localhost --pskusername psk_identity \
--pskkey 88f3824b3e5659f52d00e959bacab954b6540344 \
--priority NORMAL:-KX-ALL:+ECDHE-PSK:+DHE-PSK:+PSK
Resolving 'localhost'...
Connecting to '127.0.0.1:5556'...
- PSK authentication.
- Version: TLS1.1
- Key Exchange: PSK
- Cipher: AES-128-CBC
- MAC: SHA1
- Compression: NULL
- Handshake was completed
- Simple Client Mode:
By keeping the –pskusername parameter and removing the –pskkey
parameter, it will query only for the password during the handshake.
Connecting using raw public-key authentication
----------------------------------------------
To connect to a server using raw public-key authentication, you need to
enable the option to negotiate raw public-keys via the priority strings
such as in the example below.
$ ./gnutls-cli -p 5556 localhost --priority NORMAL:-CTYPE-CLI-ALL:+CTYPE-CLI-RAWPK \
--rawpkkeyfile cli.key.pem \
--rawpkfile cli.rawpk.pem

gnutls-serv Examples
....................
Running your own TLS server based on GnuTLS can be useful when debugging
clients and/or GnuTLS itself. This section describes how to use
‘gnutls-serv’ as a simple HTTPS server.
The most basic server can be started as:
gnutls-serv --http --priority "NORMAL:+ANON-ECDH:+ANON-DH"
It will only support anonymous ciphersuites, which many TLS clients
refuse to use.
The next step is to add support for X.509. First we generate a CA:
$ certtool --generate-privkey > x509-ca-key.pem
$ echo 'cn = GnuTLS test CA' > ca.tmpl
$ echo 'ca' >> ca.tmpl
$ echo 'cert_signing_key' >> ca.tmpl
$ certtool --generate-self-signed --load-privkey x509-ca-key.pem \
--template ca.tmpl --outfile x509-ca.pem
Then generate a server certificate. Remember to change the dns_name
value to the name of your server host, or skip that command to avoid the
field.
$ certtool --generate-privkey > x509-server-key.pem
$ echo 'organization = GnuTLS test server' > server.tmpl
$ echo 'cn = test.gnutls.org' >> server.tmpl
$ echo 'tls_www_server' >> server.tmpl
$ echo 'encryption_key' >> server.tmpl
$ echo 'signing_key' >> server.tmpl
$ echo 'dns_name = test.gnutls.org' >> server.tmpl
$ certtool --generate-certificate --load-privkey x509-server-key.pem \
--load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem --load-ca-privkey x509-ca-key.pem \
--template server.tmpl --outfile x509-server.pem
For use in the client, you may want to generate a client certificate as
well.
$ certtool --generate-privkey > x509-client-key.pem
$ echo 'cn = GnuTLS test client' > client.tmpl
$ echo 'tls_www_client' >> client.tmpl
$ echo 'encryption_key' >> client.tmpl
$ echo 'signing_key' >> client.tmpl
$ certtool --generate-certificate --load-privkey x509-client-key.pem \
--load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem --load-ca-privkey x509-ca-key.pem \
--template client.tmpl --outfile x509-client.pem
To be able to import the client key/certificate into some applications,
you will need to convert them into a PKCS#12 structure. This also
encrypts the security sensitive key with a password.
$ certtool --to-p12 --load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem \
--load-privkey x509-client-key.pem --load-certificate x509-client.pem \
--outder --outfile x509-client.p12
For icing, we’ll create a proxy certificate for the client too.
$ certtool --generate-privkey > x509-proxy-key.pem
$ echo 'cn = GnuTLS test client proxy' > proxy.tmpl
$ certtool --generate-proxy --load-privkey x509-proxy-key.pem \
--load-ca-certificate x509-client.pem --load-ca-privkey x509-client-key.pem \
--load-certificate x509-client.pem --template proxy.tmpl \
--outfile x509-proxy.pem
Then start the server again:
$ gnutls-serv --http \
--x509cafile x509-ca.pem \
--x509keyfile x509-server-key.pem \
--x509certfile x509-server.pem
Try connecting to the server using your web browser. Note that the
server listens to port 5556 by default.
While you are at it, to allow connections using ECDSA, you can also
create a ECDSA key and certificate for the server. These credentials
will be used in the final example below.
$ certtool --generate-privkey --ecdsa > x509-server-key-ecc.pem
$ certtool --generate-certificate --load-privkey x509-server-key-ecc.pem \
--load-ca-certificate x509-ca.pem --load-ca-privkey x509-ca-key.pem \
--template server.tmpl --outfile x509-server-ecc.pem
The next step is to add support for SRP authentication. This requires
an SRP password file created with ‘srptool’. To start the server with
SRP support:
gnutls-serv --http --priority NORMAL:+SRP-RSA:+SRP \
--srppasswdconf srp-tpasswd.conf \
--srppasswd srp-passwd.txt
Let’s also start a server with support for PSK. This would require a
password file created with ‘psktool’.
gnutls-serv --http --priority NORMAL:+ECDHE-PSK:+PSK \
--pskpasswd psk-passwd.txt
If you want a server with support for raw public-keys we can also add
these credentials. Note however that there is no identity information
linked to these keys as is the case with regular x509 certificates.
Authentication must be done via different means. Also we need to
explicitly enable raw public-key certificates via the priority strings.
gnutls-serv --http --priority NORMAL:+CTYPE-CLI-RAWPK:+CTYPE-SRV-RAWPK \
--rawpkfile srv.rawpk.pem \
--rawpkkeyfile srv.key.pem
Finally, we start the server with all the earlier parameters and you get
this command:
gnutls-serv --http --priority NORMAL:+PSK:+SRP:+CTYPE-CLI-RAWPK:+CTYPE-SRV-RAWPK \
--x509cafile x509-ca.pem \
--x509keyfile x509-server-key.pem \
--x509certfile x509-server.pem \
--x509keyfile x509-server-key-ecc.pem \
--x509certfile x509-server-ecc.pem \
--srppasswdconf srp-tpasswd.conf \
--srppasswd srp-passwd.txt \
--pskpasswd psk-passwd.txt \
--rawpkfile srv.rawpk.pem \
--rawpkkeyfile srv.key.pem

11 Internal Architecture of GnuTLS
**********************************
This chapter is to give a brief description of the way GnuTLS works.
The focus is to give an idea to potential developers and those who want
to know what happens inside the black box.

File: gnutls.info, Node: The TLS Protocol, Next: TLS Handshake Protocol, Up: Internal architecture of GnuTLS
11.1 The TLS Protocol
=====================
The main use case for the TLS protocol is shown in *note Figure 11.1:
fig-client-server. A user of a library implementing the protocol
expects no less than this functionality, i.e., to be able to set
parameters such as the accepted security level, perform a negotiation
with the peer and be able to exchange data.
[image src="gnutls-client-server-use-case.png" ]
Figure 11.1: TLS protocol use case.
File: gnutls.info, Node: TLS Handshake Protocol, Next: TLS Authentication Methods, Prev: The TLS Protocol, Up: Internal architecture of GnuTLS
11.2 TLS Handshake Protocol
===========================
The GnuTLS handshake protocol is implemented as a state machine that
waits for input or returns immediately when the non-blocking transport
layer functions are used. The main idea is shown in *note Figure 11.2:
fig-gnutls-handshake.
[image src="gnutls-handshake-state.png" ]
Figure 11.2: GnuTLS handshake state machine.
Also the way the input is processed varies per ciphersuite. Several
implementations of the internal handlers are available and *note
gnutls_handshake:: only multiplexes the input to the appropriate
handler. For example a PSK ciphersuite has a different implementation
of the ‘process_client_key_exchange’ than a certificate ciphersuite. We
illustrate the idea in *note Figure 11.3: fig-gnutls-handshake-sequence.

File: gnutls.info, Node: TLS Authentication Methods, Next: TLS Hello Extension Handling, Prev: TLS Handshake Protocol, Up: Internal architecture of GnuTLS
11.3 TLS Authentication Methods
===============================
In GnuTLS authentication methods can be implemented quite easily. Since
the required changes to add a new authentication method affect only the
handshake protocol, a simple interface is used. An authentication
method needs to implement the functions shown below.
typedef struct
{
const char *name;
int (*gnutls_generate_server_certificate) (gnutls_session_t, gnutls_buffer_st*);
int (*gnutls_generate_client_certificate) (gnutls_session_t, gnutls_buffer_st*);
int (*gnutls_generate_server_kx) (gnutls_session_t, gnutls_buffer_st*);
int (*gnutls_generate_client_kx) (gnutls_session_t, gnutls_buffer_st*);
int (*gnutls_generate_client_cert_vrfy) (gnutls_session_t, gnutls_buffer_st *);
int (*gnutls_generate_server_certificate_request) (gnutls_session_t,
gnutls_buffer_st *);
int (*gnutls_process_server_certificate) (gnutls_session_t, opaque *,
size_t);
int (*gnutls_process_client_certificate) (gnutls_session_t, opaque *,
size_t);
int (*gnutls_process_server_kx) (gnutls_session_t, opaque *, size_t);
int (*gnutls_process_client_kx) (gnutls_session_t, opaque *, size_t);
int (*gnutls_process_client_cert_vrfy) (gnutls_session_t, opaque *, size_t);
int (*gnutls_process_server_certificate_request) (gnutls_session_t,
opaque *, size_t);
} mod_auth_st;
Those functions are responsible for the interpretation of the handshake
protocol messages. It is common for such functions to read data from
one or more ‘credentials_t’ structures(1) and write data, such as
certificates, usernames etc. to ‘auth_info_t’ structures.
Simple examples of existing authentication methods can be seen in
‘auth/psk.c’ for PSK ciphersuites and ‘auth/srp.c’ for SRP ciphersuites.
After implementing these functions the structure holding its pointers
has to be registered in ‘gnutls_algorithms.c’ in the
‘_gnutls_kx_algorithms’ structure.

11.4 TLS Extension Handling
===========================
As with authentication methods, adding TLS hello extensions can be done
quite easily by implementing the interface shown below.
typedef int (*gnutls_ext_recv_func) (gnutls_session_t session,
const unsigned char *data, size_t len);
typedef int (*gnutls_ext_send_func) (gnutls_session_t session,
gnutls_buffer_st *extdata);
Here there are two main functions, one for parsing the received
extension data and one for formatting the extension data that must be
send. These functions have to check internally whether they operate
within a client or a server session.
A simple example of an extension handler can be seen in ‘lib/ext/srp.c’
in GnuTLS’ source code. After implementing these functions, the
extension has to be registered. Registering an extension can be done in
two ways. You can create a GnuTLS internal extension and register it in
‘hello_ext.c’ or write an external extension (not inside GnuTLS but
inside an application using GnuTLS) and register it via the exported
functions *note gnutls_session_ext_register:: or *note
gnutls_ext_register::.
Adding a new TLS hello extension
--------------------------------
Adding support for a new TLS hello extension is done from time to time,
and the process to do so is not difficult. Here are the steps you need
to follow if you wish to do this yourself. For the sake of discussion,
let’s consider adding support for the hypothetical TLS extension
‘foobar’. The following section is about adding an hello extension to
GnuTLS itself. For custom application extensions you should check the
exported functions *note gnutls_session_ext_register:: or *note
gnutls_ext_register::.
Add ‘configure’ option like ‘--enable-foobar’ or ‘--disable-foobar’.
....................................................................
This step is useful when the extension code is large and it might be
desirable under some circumstances to be able to leave out the extension
during compilation of GnuTLS. If you don’t need this kind of feature
this step can be safely skipped.
Whether to choose enable or disable depends on whether you intend to
make the extension be enabled by default. Look at existing checks
(i.e., SRP, authz) for how to model the code. For example:
AC_MSG_CHECKING([whether to disable foobar support])
AC_ARG_ENABLE(foobar,
AS_HELP_STRING([--disable-foobar],
[disable foobar support]),
ac_enable_foobar=no)
if test x$ac_enable_foobar != xno; then
AC_MSG_RESULT(no)
AC_DEFINE(ENABLE_FOOBAR, 1, [enable foobar])
else
ac_full=0
AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)
fi
AM_CONDITIONAL(ENABLE_FOOBAR, test "$ac_enable_foobar" != "no")
These lines should go in ‘lib/m4/hooks.m4’.
Add an extension identifier to ‘extensions_t’ in ‘gnutls_int.h’.
................................................................
A good name for the identifier would be GNUTLS_EXTENSION_FOOBAR. If the
extension that you are implementing is an extension that is officially
registered by IANA then it is recommended to use its official name such
that the extension can be correctly identified by other developers.
Check with <https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-extensiontype-values>
for registered extensions.
Register the extension in ‘lib/hello_ext.c’.
............................................
In order for the extension to be executed you need to register it in the
‘static hello_ext_entry_st const *extfunc[]’ list in ‘lib/hello_ext.c’.
A typical entry would be:
#ifdef ENABLE_FOOBAR
[GNUTLS_EXTENSION_FOOBAR] = &ext_mod_foobar,
#endif
Also for every extension you need to create an ‘hello_ext_entry_st’ that
describes the extension. This structure is placed in the designated c
file for your extension and its name is used in the registration entry
as depicted above.
The structure of ‘hello_ext_entry_st’ is as follows:
const hello_ext_entry_st ext_mod_foobar = {
.name = "FOOBAR",
.tls_id = 255,
.gid = GNUTLS_EXTENSION_FOOBAR,
.parse_type = GNUTLS_EXT_TLS,
.validity = GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_CLIENT_HELLO |
GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_TLS12_SERVER_HELLO |
GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_TLS13_SERVER_HELLO |
GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_TLS,
.recv_func = _gnutls_foobar_recv_params,
.send_func = _gnutls_foobar_send_params,
.pack_func = _gnutls_foobar_pack,
.unpack_func = _gnutls_foobar_unpack,
.deinit_func = _gnutls_foobar_deinit,
.cannot_be_overriden = 1
};
The GNUTLS_EXTENSION_FOOBAR is the identifier that you’ve added to
‘gnutls_int.h’ earlier. The ‘.tls_id’ should contain the number that
IANA has assigned to this extension, or an unassigned number of your
choice if this is an unregistered extension. In the rest of this
structure you specify the functions to handle the extension data. The
‘receive’ function will be called upon reception of the data and will be
used to parse or interpret the extension data. The ‘send’ function will
be called prior to sending the extension data on the wire and will be
used to format the data such that it can be send over the wire. The
‘pack’ and ‘unpack’ functions will be used to prepare the data for
storage in case of session resumption (and vice versa). The ‘deinit’
function will be called to deinitialize the extension’s private
parameters, if any.
Look at ‘gnutls_ext_parse_type_t’ and ‘gnutls_ext_flags_t’ for a
complete list of available flags.
Note that the conditional ‘ENABLE_FOOBAR’ definition should only be used
if step 1 with the ‘configure’ options has taken place.
Add new files that implement the hello extension.
.................................................
To keep things structured every extension should have its own files.
The functions that you should (at least) add are those referenced in the
struct from the previous step. Use descriptive file names such as
‘lib/ext/foobar.c’ and for the corresponding header ‘lib/ext/foobar.h’.
As a starter, you could add this:
int
_gnutls_foobar_recv_params (gnutls_session_t session, const uint8_t * data,
size_t data_size)
{
return 0;
}
int
_gnutls_foobar_send_params (gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_buffer_st* data)
{
return 0;
}
int
_gnutls_foobar_pack (extension_priv_data_t epriv, gnutls_buffer_st * ps)
{
/* Append the extension's internal state to buffer */
return 0;
}
int
_gnutls_foobar_unpack (gnutls_buffer_st * ps, extension_priv_data_t * epriv)
{
/* Read the internal state from buffer */
return 0;
}
The ‘_gnutls_foobar_recv_params’ function is responsible for parsing
incoming extension data (both in the client and server).
The ‘_gnutls_foobar_send_params’ function is responsible for formatting
extension data such that it can be send over the wire (both in the
client and server). It should append data to provided buffer and return
a positive (or zero) number on success or a negative error code.
Previous to 3.6.0 versions of GnuTLS required that function to return
the number of bytes that were written. If zero is returned and no bytes
are appended the extension will not be sent. If a zero byte extension
is to be sent this function must return ‘GNUTLS_E_INT_RET_0’.
If you receive length fields that don’t match, return
‘GNUTLS_E_UNEXPECTED_PACKET_LENGTH’. If you receive invalid data,
return ‘GNUTLS_E_RECEIVED_ILLEGAL_PARAMETER’. You can use other error
codes from the list in *note Error codes::. Return 0 on success.
An extension typically stores private information in the ‘session’ data
for later usage. That can be done using the functions
‘_gnutls_hello_ext_set_datum’ and ‘_gnutls_hello_ext_get_datum’. You
can check simple examples at ‘lib/ext/max_record.c’ and
‘lib/ext/server_name.c’ extensions. That private information can be
saved and restored across session resumption if the following functions
are set:
The ‘_gnutls_foobar_pack’ function is responsible for packing internal
extension data to save them in the session resumption storage.
The ‘_gnutls_foobar_unpack’ function is responsible for restoring
session data from the session resumption storage.
When the internal data is stored using the
‘_gnutls_hello_ext_set_datum’, then you can rely on the default pack and
unpack functions: ‘_gnutls_hello_ext_default_pack’ and
‘_gnutls_hello_ext_default_unpack’.
Recall that both for the client and server, the send and receive
functions most likely will need to do different things depending on
which mode they are in. It may be useful to make this distinction
explicit in the code. Thus, for example, a better template than above
would be:
int
_gnutls_foobar_recv_params (gnutls_session_t session,
const uint8_t * data,
size_t data_size)
{
if (session->security_parameters.entity == GNUTLS_CLIENT)
return foobar_recv_client (session, data, data_size);
else
return foobar_recv_server (session, data, data_size);
}
int
_gnutls_foobar_send_params (gnutls_session_t session,
gnutls_buffer_st * data)
{
if (session->security_parameters.entity == GNUTLS_CLIENT)
return foobar_send_client (session, data);
else
return foobar_send_server (session, data);
}
The functions used would be declared as ‘static’ functions, of the
appropriate prototype, in the same file.
When adding the new extension files, you’ll need to add them to
‘lib/ext/Makefile.am’ as well, for example:
if ENABLE_FOOBAR
libgnutls_ext_la_SOURCES += ext/foobar.c ext/foobar.h
endif
Add API functions to use the extension.
.......................................
It might be desirable to allow users of the extension to request the use
of the extension, or set extension specific data. This can be
implemented by adding extension specific function calls that can be
added to ‘includes/gnutls/gnutls.h’, as long as the LGPLv2.1+ applies.
The implementation of these functions should lie in the
‘lib/ext/foobar.c’ file.
To make the API available in the shared library you need to add the
added symbols in ‘lib/libgnutls.map’, so that the symbols are exported
properly.
When writing GTK-DOC style documentation for your new APIs, don’t forget
to add ‘Since:’ tags to indicate the GnuTLS version the API was
introduced in.
Adding a new Supplemental Data Handshake Message
------------------------------------------------
TLS handshake extensions allow to send so called supplemental data
handshake messages [*note RFC4680::]. This short section explains how
to implement a supplemental data handshake message for a given TLS
extension.
First of all, modify your extension ‘foobar’ in the way, to instruct the
handshake process to send and receive supplemental data, as shown below.
int
_gnutls_foobar_recv_params (gnutls_session_t session, const opaque * data,
size_t _data_size)
{
...
gnutls_supplemental_recv(session, 1);
...
}
int
_gnutls_foobar_send_params (gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_buffer_st *extdata)
{
...
gnutls_supplemental_send(session, 1);
...
}
Furthermore you’ll need two new functions ‘_foobar_supp_recv_params’ and
‘_foobar_supp_send_params’, which must conform to the following
prototypes.
typedef int (*gnutls_supp_recv_func)(gnutls_session_t session,
const unsigned char *data,
size_t data_size);
typedef int (*gnutls_supp_send_func)(gnutls_session_t session,
gnutls_buffer_t buf);
The following example code shows how to send a “Hello World” string in
the supplemental data handshake message.
int
_foobar_supp_recv_params(gnutls_session_t session, const opaque *data, size_t _data_size)
{
uint8_t len = _data_size;
unsigned char *msg;
msg = gnutls_malloc(len);
if (msg == NULL) return GNUTLS_E_MEMORY_ERROR;
memcpy(msg, data, len);
msg[len]='\0';
/* do something with msg */
gnutls_free(msg);
return len;
}
int
_foobar_supp_send_params(gnutls_session_t session, gnutls_buffer_t buf)
{
unsigned char *msg = "hello world";
int len = strlen(msg);
if (gnutls_buffer_append_data(buf, msg, len) < 0)
abort();
return len;
}
Afterwards, register the new supplemental data using *note
gnutls_session_supplemental_register::, or *note
gnutls_supplemental_register:: at some point in your program.

11.5 Cryptographic Backend
==========================
Today most new processors, either for embedded or desktop systems
include either instructions intended to speed up cryptographic
operations, or a co-processor with cryptographic capabilities. Taking
advantage of those is a challenging task for every cryptographic
application or library. GnuTLS handles the cryptographic provider in a
modular way, following a layered approach to access cryptographic
operations as in *note Figure 11.4: fig-crypto-layers.
[image src="gnutls-crypto-layers.png" ]
Figure 11.4: GnuTLS cryptographic back-end design.
The TLS layer uses a cryptographic provider layer, that will in turn
either use the default crypto provider – a software crypto library, or
use an external crypto provider, if available in the local system. The
reason of handling the external cryptographic provider in GnuTLS and not
delegating it to the cryptographic libraries, is that none of the
supported cryptographic libraries support ‘/dev/crypto’ or CPU-optimized
cryptography in an efficient way.
Cryptographic library layer
---------------------------
The Cryptographic library layer, currently supports only libnettle.
Older versions of GnuTLS used to support libgcrypt, but it was switched
with nettle mainly for performance reasons(1) and secondary because it
is a simpler library to use. In the future other cryptographic
libraries might be supported as well.
External cryptography provider
------------------------------
Systems that include a cryptographic co-processor, typically come with
kernel drivers to utilize the operations from software. For this reason
GnuTLS provides a layer where each individual algorithm used can be
replaced by another implementation, i.e., the one provided by the
driver. The FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Linux kernels(2) include already a
number of hardware assisted implementations, and also provide an
interface to access them, called ‘/dev/crypto’. GnuTLS will take
advantage of this interface if compiled with special options. That is
because in most systems where hardware-assisted cryptographic operations
are not available, using this interface might actually harm performance.
In systems that include cryptographic instructions with the CPU’s
instructions set, using the kernel interface will introduce an unneeded
layer. For this reason GnuTLS includes such optimizations found in
popular processors such as the AES-NI or VIA PADLOCK instruction sets.
This is achieved using a mechanism that detects CPU capabilities and
overrides parts of crypto back-end at runtime. The next section
discusses the registration of a detected algorithm optimization. For
more information please consult the GnuTLS source code in
‘lib/accelerated/’.
Overriding specific algorithms
..............................
When an optimized implementation of a single algorithm is available, say
a hardware assisted version of AES-CBC then the following functions,
from ‘crypto.h’, can be used to register those algorithms.
• *note gnutls_crypto_register_cipher::: To register a cipher
algorithm.
• *note gnutls_crypto_register_aead_cipher::: To register an AEAD
cipher algorithm.
• *note gnutls_crypto_register_mac::: To register a MAC algorithm.
• *note gnutls_crypto_register_digest::: To register a hash
algorithm.
Those registration functions will only replace the specified algorithm
and leave the rest of subsystem intact.
Protecting keys through isolation
---------------------------------
For asymmetric or public keys, GnuTLS supports PKCS #11 which allows
operation without access to long term keys, in addition to CPU
offloading. For more information see *note Hardware security modules
and abstract key types::.

File: gnutls.info, Node: Random Number Generators-internals, Next: FIPS140-2 mode, Prev: Cryptographic Backend, Up: Internal architecture of GnuTLS
11.6 Random Number Generators
=============================
About the generators
--------------------
GnuTLS provides two random generators. The default, and the AES-DRBG
random generator which is only used when the library is compiled with
support for FIPS140-2 and the system is in FIPS140-2 mode.
The default generator - inner workings
--------------------------------------
The random number generator levels in ‘gnutls_rnd_level_t’ map to two
CHACHA-based random generators which are initially seeded using the OS
random device, e.g., ‘/dev/urandom’ or ‘getrandom()’. These random
generators are unique per thread, and are automatically re-seeded when a
fork is detected.
The reason the CHACHA cipher was selected for the GnuTLS’ PRNG is the
fact that CHACHA is considered a secure and fast stream cipher, and is
already defined for use in TLS protocol. As such, the utilization of it
would not stress the CPU caches, and would allow for better performance
on busy servers, irrespective of their architecture (e.g., even if AES
is not available with an optimized instruction set).
The generators are unique per thread to allow lock-free operation. That
induces a cost of around 140-bytes for the state of the generators per
thread, on threads that would utilize *note gnutls_rnd::. At the same
time it allows fast and lock-free access to the generators. The
lock-free access benefits servers which utilize more than 4 threads,
while imposes no cost on single threaded processes.
On the first call to *note gnutls_rnd:: the generators are seeded with
two independent keys obtained from the OS random device. Their seed is
used to output a fixed amount of bytes before re-seeding; the number of
bytes output varies per generator.
One generator is dedicated for the ‘GNUTLS_RND_NONCE’ level, and the
second is shared for the ‘GNUTLS_RND_KEY’ and ‘GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM’
levels. For the rest of this section we refer to the first as the nonce
generator and the second as the key generator.
The nonce generator will reseed after outputting a fixed amount of bytes
(typically few megabytes), or after few hours of operation without
reaching the limit has passed. It is being re-seed using the key
generator to obtain a new key for the CHACHA cipher, which is mixed with
its old one.
Similarly, the key generator, will also re-seed after a fixed amount of
bytes is generated (typically less than the nonce), and will also
re-seed based on time, i.e., after few hours of operation without
reaching the limit for a re-seed. For its re-seed it mixes mixes data
obtained from the OS random device with the previous key.
Although the key generator used to provide data for the
‘GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM’ and ‘GNUTLS_RND_KEY’ levels is identical, when used
with the ‘GNUTLS_RND_KEY’ level a re-key of the PRNG using its own
output, is additionally performed. That ensures that the recovery of
the PRNG state will not be sufficient to recover previously generated
values.
The AES-DRBG generator - inner workings
---------------------------------------
Similar with the default generator, the random number generator levels
in ‘gnutls_rnd_level_t’ map to two AES-DRBG random generators which are
initially seeded using the OS random device, e.g., ‘/dev/urandom’ or
‘getrandom()’. These random generators are unique per thread, and are
automatically re-seeded when a fork is detected.
The AES-DRBG generator is based on the AES cipher in counter mode and is
re-seeded after a fixed amount of bytes are generated.
Defense against PRNG attacks
----------------------------
This section describes the counter-measures available in the
Pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) of GnuTLS for known attacks as
described in [*note PRNGATTACKS::]. Note that, the attacks on a PRNG
such as state-compromise, assume a quite powerful adversary which has in
practice access to the PRNG state.
Cryptanalytic
.............
To defend against cryptanalytic attacks GnuTLS’ PRNG is a stream cipher
designed to defend against the same attacks. As such, GnuTLS’ PRNG
strength with regards to this attack relies on the underlying crypto
block, which at the time of writing is CHACHA. That is easily
replaceable in the future if attacks are found to be possible in that
cipher.
Input-based attacks
...................
These attacks assume that the attacker can influence the input that is
used to form the state of the PRNG. To counter these attacks GnuTLS does
not gather input from the system environment but rather relies on the OS
provided random generator. That is the ‘/dev/urandom’ or
‘getentropy’/‘getrandom’ system calls. As such, GnuTLS’ PRNG is as
strong as the system random generator can assure with regards to
input-based attacks.
State-compromise: Backtracking
..............................
A backtracking attack, assumes that an adversary obtains at some point
of time access to the generator state, and wants to recover past bytes.
As the GnuTLS generator is fine-tuned to provide multiple levels, such
an attack mainly concerns levels ‘GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM’ and
‘GNUTLS_RND_KEY’, since ‘GNUTLS_RND_NONCE’ is intended to output
non-secret data. The ‘GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM’ generator at the time of
writing can output 2MB prior to being re-seeded thus this is its upper
bound for previously generated data recovered using this attack. That
assumes that the state of the operating system random generator is
unknown to the attacker, and we carry that assumption on the next
paragraphs. The usage of ‘GNUTLS_RND_KEY’ level ensures that no
backtracking is possible for all output data, by re-keying the PRNG
using its own output.
Such an attack reflects the real world scenario where application’s
memory is temporarily compromised, while the kernel’s memory is
inaccessible.
State-compromise: Permanent Compromise Attack
.............................................
A permanent compromise attack implies that once an attacker compromises
the state of GnuTLS’ random generator at a specific time, future and
past outputs from the generator are compromised. For past outputs the
previous paragraph applies. For future outputs, both the
‘GNUTLS_RND_RANDOM’ and the ‘GNUTLS_RND_KEY’ will recover after 2MB of
data have been generated or few hours have passed (two at the time of
writing). Similarly the ‘GNUTLS_RND_NONCE’ level generator will recover
after several megabytes of output is generated, or its re-key time is
reached.
State-compromise: Iterative guessing
....................................
This attack assumes that after an attacker obtained the PRNG state at
some point, is able to recover the state at a later time by observing
outputs of the PRNG. That is countered by switching the key to
generators using a combination of a fresh key and the old one (using
XOR), at re-seed time. All levels are immune to such attack after a
re-seed.
State-compromise: Meet-in-the-Middle
....................................
This attack assumes that the attacker obtained the PRNG state at two
distinct times, and being able to recover the state at the third time
after observing the output of the PRNG. Given the approach described on
the above paragraph, all levels are immune to such attack.
File: gnutls.info, Node: FIPS140-2 mode, Prev: Random Number Generators-internals, Up: Internal architecture of GnuTLS
11.7 FIPS140-2 mode
===================
GnuTLS can operate in a special mode for FIPS140-2. That mode of
operation is for the conformance to NIST’s FIPS140-2 publication, which
consists of policies for cryptographic modules (such as software
libraries). Its implementation in GnuTLS is designed for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux, and can only be enabled when the library is explicitly
compiled with the ’–enable-fips140-mode’ configure option.
There are two distinct library states with regard to FIPS140-2: the
FIPS140-2 mode is _installed_ if ‘/etc/system-fips’ is present, and the
FIPS140-2 mode is _enabled_ if ‘/proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled’ contains
’1’, which is typically set with the “fips=1” kernel command line
option.
When the FIPS140-2 mode is installed, the operation of the library is
modified as follows.
• The random generator used switches to DRBG-AES
• The integrity of the GnuTLS and dependent libraries is checked on
startup
• Algorithm self-tests are run on library load
When the FIPS140-2 mode is enabled, The operation of the library is in
addition modified as follows.
• Only approved by FIPS140-2 algorithms are enabled
• Only approved by FIPS140-2 key lengths are allowed for key
generation
• Any cryptographic operation will be refused if any of the
self-tests failed
There are also few environment variables which modify that operation.
The environment variable ‘GNUTLS_SKIP_FIPS_INTEGRITY_CHECKS’ will
disable the library integrity tests on startup, and the variable
‘GNUTLS_FORCE_FIPS_MODE’ can be set to force a value from *note Figure
11.5: gnutls_fips_mode_t, i.e., ’1’ will enable the FIPS140-2 mode,
while ’0’ will disable it.
The integrity checks for the dependent libraries and GnuTLS are
performed using ’.hmac’ files which are present at the same path as the
library. The key for the operations can be provided on compile-time
with the configure option ’–with-fips140-key’. The MAC algorithm used
is HMAC-SHA256.
On runtime an application can verify whether the library is in FIPS140-2
mode using the *note gnutls_fips140_mode_enabled:: function.
Relaxing FIPS140-2 requirements
-------------------------------
The library by default operates in a strict enforcing mode, ensuring
that all constraints imposed by the FIPS140-2 specification are
enforced. However the application can relax these requirements via
*note gnutls_fips140_set_mode:: which can switch to alternative modes as
in *note Figure 11.5: gnutls_fips_mode_t.
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_DISABLED’
The FIPS140-2 mode is disabled.
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_STRICT’
The default mode; all forbidden operations will cause an operation
failure via error code.
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SELFTESTS’
A transient state during library initialization. That state cannot
be set or seen by applications.
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_LAX’
The library still uses the FIPS140-2 relevant algorithms but all
forbidden by FIPS140-2 operations are allowed; this is useful when
the application is aware of the followed security policy, and needs
to utilize disallowed operations for other reasons (e.g.,
compatibility).
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_LOG’
Similarly to ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_LAX’ , it allows forbidden operations;
any use of them results to a message to the audit callback
functions.
Figure 11.5: The ‘gnutls_fips_mode_t’ enumeration.
The intention of this API is to be used by applications which may run in
FIPS140-2 mode, while they utilize few algorithms not in the allowed
set, e.g., for non-security related purposes. In these cases
applications should wrap the non-compliant code within blocks like the
following.
GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_LAX_MODE();
_gnutls_hash_fast(GNUTLS_DIG_MD5, buffer, sizeof(buffer), output);
GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_STRICT_MODE();
The ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_LAX_MODE’ and ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_STRICT_MODE’
are macros to simplify the following sequence of calls.
if (gnutls_fips140_mode_enabled())
gnutls_fips140_set_mode(GNUTLS_FIPS140_LAX, GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD);
_gnutls_hash_fast(GNUTLS_DIG_MD5, buffer, sizeof(buffer), output);
if (gnutls_fips140_mode_enabled())
gnutls_fips140_set_mode(GNUTLS_FIPS140_STRICT, GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD);
The reason of the ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD’ flag in the previous
calls is to localize the change in the mode. Note also, that such a
block has no effect when the library is not operating under FIPS140-2
mode, and thus it can be considered a no-op.
Applications could also switch FIPS140-2 mode explicitly off, by calling
gnutls_fips140_set_mode(GNUTLS_FIPS140_LAX, 0);
Service indicator
-----------------
The above restrictions may not cover all the requirements in every usage
context, and as the FIPS140 standard evolves (like FIPS140-3), GnuTLS
may not be able to add new restrictions without breaking compatibility.
Therefore an additional set of API functions is provided to communicate
with the user whether any approved mode of operations is performed
within a given context.
‘INT *note gnutls_fips140_context_init:: (gnutls_fips140_context_t * CONTEXT)’
‘VOID *note gnutls_fips140_context_deinit:: (gnutls_fips140_context_t CONTEXT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_fips140_push_context:: (gnutls_fips140_context_t CONTEXT)’
‘INT *note gnutls_fips140_pop_context:: ( VOID)’
The ‘gnutls_fips140_context_t’ represents the FIPS140-2 mode of
operation. It can be attached to the current execution thread with

Appendix A Upgrading from previous versions
*******************************************
The GnuTLS library typically maintains binary and source code
compatibility across versions. The releases that have the major version
increased break binary compatibility but source compatibility is
provided. This section lists exceptional cases where changes to
existing code are required due to library changes.
Upgrading to 2.12.x from previous versions
==========================================
GnuTLS 2.12.x is binary compatible with previous versions but changes
the semantics of ‘gnutls_transport_set_lowat’, which might cause
breakage in applications that relied on its default value be 1. Two
fixes are proposed:
• Quick fix. Explicitly call ‘gnutls_transport_set_lowat (session,
1);’ after *note gnutls_init::.
• Long term fix. Because later versions of gnutls abolish the
functionality of using the system call ‘select’ to check for gnutls
pending data, the function *note gnutls_record_check_pending:: has
to be used to achieve the same functionality as described in *note
Asynchronous operation::.
Upgrading to 3.0.x from 2.12.x
==============================
GnuTLS 3.0.x is source compatible with previous versions except for the
functions listed below.
Old function Replacement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
‘gnutls_transport_set_lowat’To replace its functionality the function
*note gnutls_record_check_pending:: has
to be used, as described in
*note Asynchronous operation::
‘gnutls_session_get_server_random’,They are replaced by the safer function
‘gnutls_session_get_client_random’*note gnutls_session_get_random::
‘gnutls_session_get_master_secret’Replaced by the keying material exporters
discussed in
*note Deriving keys for other applications/protocols::
‘gnutls_transport_set_global_errno’Replaced by using the system’s errno
facility or
*note gnutls_transport_set_errno::.
‘gnutls_x509_privkey_verify_data’Replaced by
*note gnutls_pubkey_verify_data2::.
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers’Replaced by
*note gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2::.
‘gnutls_psk_netconf_derive_key’Removed. The key derivation function was
never standardized.
‘gnutls_session_set_finished_function’Removed.
‘gnutls_ext_register’ Removed. Extension registration API is
now internal to allow easier changes in
the API.
‘gnutls_certificate_get_x509_crls’,Removed to allow updating the internal
‘gnutls_certificate_get_x509_cas’structures. Replaced by
*note gnutls_certificate_get_issuer::.
‘gnutls_certificate_get_openpgp_keyring’Removed.
‘gnutls_ia_’ Removed. The inner application
extensions were completely removed (they
failed to be standardized).
Upgrading to 3.1.x from 3.0.x
=============================
GnuTLS 3.1.x is source and binary compatible with GnuTLS 3.0.x releases.
Few functions have been deprecated and are listed below.
Old function Replacement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
‘gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash’The function
*note gnutls_pubkey_verify_hash2:: is
provided and is functionally equivalent
and safer to use.
‘gnutls_pubkey_verify_data’The function
*note gnutls_pubkey_verify_data2:: is
provided and is functionally equivalent
and safer to use.
Upgrading to 3.2.x from 3.1.x
=============================
GnuTLS 3.2.x is source and binary compatible with GnuTLS 3.1.x releases.
Few functions have been deprecated and are listed below.
Old function Replacement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
‘gnutls_privkey_sign_raw_data’The function
*note gnutls_privkey_sign_hash:: is
equivalent when the flag
‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_SIGN_FLAG_TLS1_RSA’ is
specified.
Upgrading to 3.3.x from 3.2.x
=============================
GnuTLS 3.3.x is source and binary compatible with GnuTLS 3.2.x releases;
however there few changes in semantics which are listed below.
Old function Replacement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
‘gnutls_global_init’ No longer required. The library is
initialized using a constructor.
‘gnutls_global_deinit’ No longer required. The library is
deinitialized using a destructor.
Upgrading to 3.4.x from 3.3.x
=============================
GnuTLS 3.4.x is source compatible with GnuTLS 3.3.x releases; however,
several deprecated functions were removed, and are listed below.
Old function Replacement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Priority string The following string emulates the 3.3.x

Upgrading to 3.6.x from 3.5.x
=============================
GnuTLS 3.6.x is source and binary compatible with GnuTLS 3.5.x releases;
however, there are minor differences, listed below.
Old functionality Replacement
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The priority strings TLS compression is no longer available.
"+COMP" are a no-op
The SSL 3.0 protocol SSL 3.0 is no longer compiled in by

is completely eliminated from public
internet. As such it was removed to
reduce the attack vector for applications
using the library.
The hash function TLS 1.3 no longer uses SHA2-224, and it
SHA2-224 is a no-op was never a widespread hash algorithm.
for TLS1.2 As such it was removed for simplicity.
The SRP key exchange The SRP key exchange is restricted to
accepted parameters [*note TLSSRP::] spec parameters to

[*note TLSSRP::]
spec
The No longer use ‘gnutls_compression_get’,
compression-related ‘gnutls_compression_get_name’,
functions are ‘gnutls_compression_list’, and
deprecated ‘gnutls_compression_get_id’.
*note gnutls_x509_crt_sign::,These signing functions will no longer
*note gnutls_x509_crl_sign::,sign using SHA1, but with a secure hash
*note gnutls_x509_crq_sign::algorithm.
*note gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file::This function will return an error if the
loaded response doesn’t match any of the
present certificates. To revert to
previous semantics set the
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_SKIP_OCSP_RESPONSE_CHECK’
flag using
*note gnutls_certificate_set_flags::.
The callback It is replaced with
*note gnutls_privkey_import_ext3::*note gnutls_privkey_import_ext4::

1.3.
*note gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_generate3::,These functions no longer create an
*note gnutls_pkcs11_copy_secret_key::,exportable key by default; they require
*note gnutls_pkcs11_copy_x509_privkey2::the flag
‘GNUTLS_PKCS11_OBJ_FLAG_MARK_NOT_SENSITIVE’
to do so.
*note gnutls_db_set_retrieve_function::,These functions are no longer relevant
*note gnutls_db_set_store_function::,under TLS 1.3; resumption under TLS 1.3
*note gnutls_db_set_remove_function::is done via session tickets, c.f.
*note gnutls_session_ticket_enable_server::.
*note gnutls_session_get_data2::,These functions may introduce a slight
*note gnutls_session_get_data::delay under TLS 1.3 for few milliseconds.
Check output of
*note gnutls_session_get_flags:: for
GNUTLS_SFLAGS_SESSION_TICKET before
calling this function to avoid delays.
To work efficiently under TLS 1.3 this
function requires the application setting
*note gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function::.
SRP and RSA-PSK key SRP and RSA-PSK key exchanges are not
exchanges are not supported in TLS 1.3, so when these key
supported under TLS exchanges are present in a priority
1.3 string, TLS 1.3 is disabled.
Anonymous key There is no anonymous key exchange
exchange is not supported under TLS 1.3, so if an
supported under TLS anonymous key exchange method is set in a
1.3 priority string, and no certificate
credentials are set in the client or
server, TLS 1.3 will not be negotiated.
ECDHE-PSK and In the priority strings, both ‘ECDHEPSK’
DHE-PSK keywords and ‘DHEPSK’ indicate the intent to
have the same support an ephemeral key exchange with
meaning under TLS the pre-shared key. The parameters of
1.3 the key exchange are negotiated with the
supported groups specified in the
priority string.
Authentication-only Ciphersuites with the ‘NULL’ cipher
ciphersuites are not (i.e., authentication-only) are not
supported under TLS supported in TLS 1.3, so when they are
1.3 specified in a priority string, TLS 1.3
is disabled.
Supplemental data is The TLS supplemental data handshake
not supported under message (RFC 4680) is not supported under
TLS 1.3 TLS 1.3, so if the application calls
*note gnutls_supplemental_register:: or
*note gnutls_session_supplemental_register::,
TLS 1.3 is disabled.
The The macro was non-functional and because
GNUTLS_X509_NO_WELL_DEFINED_EXPIRATIONof the nature of the definition of the
macro is a no-op no-well-defined date for certificates (a
real date), it will not be fixed or
re-introduced.

A mailing list where users may help each other exists, and you can reach
it by sending e-mail to <gnutls-help@gnutls.org>. Archives of the
mailing list discussions, and an interface to manage subscriptions, is
available through the World Wide Web at
<https://lists.gnutls.org/pipermail/gnutls-help/>.
A mailing list for developers are also available, see
<https://www.gnutls.org/lists.html>. Bug reports should be sent to

B.3 Bug Reports
===============
If you think you have found a bug in GnuTLS, please investigate it and
report it.
• Please make sure that the bug is really in GnuTLS, and preferably
also check that it hasn’t already been fixed in the latest version.
• You have to send us a test case that makes it possible for us to
reproduce the bug.
• You also have to explain what is wrong; if you get a crash, or if
the results printed are not good and in that case, in what way.
Make sure that the bug report includes all information you would
need to fix this kind of bug for someone else.
Please make an effort to produce a self-contained report, with something
definite that can be tested or debugged. Vague queries or piecemeal
messages are difficult to act on and don’t help the development effort.
If your bug report is good, we will do our best to help you to get a
corrected version of the software; if the bug report is poor, we won’t
do anything about it (apart from asking you to send better bug reports).
If you think something in this manual is unclear, or downright
incorrect, or if the language needs to be improved, please also send a
note.

B.4 Contributing
================
If you want to submit a patch for inclusion – from solving a typo you
discovered, up to adding support for a new feature – you should submit
it as a bug report, using the process in *note Bug Reports::. There are
some things that you can do to increase the chances for it to be
included in the official package.
Unless your patch is very small (say, under 10 lines) we require that
you assign the copyright of your work to the Free Software Foundation.
This is to protect the freedom of the project. If you have not already
signed papers, we will send you the necessary information when you
submit your contribution.
For contributions that doesn’t consist of actual programming code, the
only guidelines are common sense. For code contributions, a number of
style guides will help you:
• Coding Style. Follow the GNU Standards document.
If you normally code using another coding standard, there is no
problem, but you should use ‘indent’ to reformat the code before
submitting your work.
• Use the unified diff format ‘diff -u’.
• Return errors. No reason whatsoever should abort the execution of
the library. Even memory allocation errors, e.g. when malloc
return NULL, should work although result in an error code.
• Design with thread safety in mind. Don’t use global variables.
Don’t even write to per-handle global variables unless the
documented behaviour of the function you write is to write to the
per-handle global variable.
• Avoid using the C math library. It causes problems for embedded
implementations, and in most situations it is very easy to avoid
using it.
• Document your functions. Use comments before each function
headers, that, if properly formatted, are extracted into Texinfo
manuals and GTK-DOC web pages.
• Supply a ChangeLog and NEWS entries, where appropriate.

B.5 Certification
=================
There are certifications from national or international bodies which
"prove" to an auditor that the crypto component follows some best
practices, such as unit testing and reliance on well known crypto
primitives.
GnuTLS has support for the FIPS 140-2 certification under Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. See *note FIPS140-2 mode:: for more information.

-- Function: gnutls_alert_description_t gnutls_alert_get
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return the last alert number received. This
function should be called when ‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_FATAL_ALERT_RECEIVED’ errors are returned by a gnutls
function. The peer may send alerts if he encounters an error. If
no alert has been received the returned value is undefined.
*Returns:* the last alert received, a ‘gnutls_alert_description_t’
value.
gnutls_alert_get_name
---------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_alert_get_name
(gnutls_alert_description_t ALERT)
ALERT: is an alert number.
This function will return a string that describes the given alert
number, or ‘NULL’ . See ‘gnutls_alert_get()’ .
*Returns:* string corresponding to ‘gnutls_alert_description_t’
value.
gnutls_alert_get_strname
------------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_alert_get_strname
(gnutls_alert_description_t ALERT)
ALERT: is an alert number.
This function will return a string of the name of the alert.

gnutls_alert_level_t LEVEL, gnutls_alert_description_t DESC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
LEVEL: is the level of the alert
DESC: is the alert description
This function will send an alert to the peer in order to inform him
of something important (eg. his Certificate could not be
verified). If the alert level is Fatal then the peer is expected
to close the connection, otherwise he may ignore the alert and
continue.
The error code of the underlying record send function will be
returned, so you may also receive ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ as well.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_alert_send_appropriate

ERR: is an error code returned by another GnuTLS function
Sends an alert to the peer depending on the error code returned by
a gnutls function. This function will call
‘gnutls_error_to_alert()’ to determine the appropriate alert to
send.
This function may also return ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ , or
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ .
This function historically was always sending an alert to the peer,
even if ‘err’ was inappropriate to respond with an alert (e.g.,
‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ ). Since 3.6.6 this function returns success
without transmitting any data on error codes that should not result
to an alert.

HOW: is an integer
Terminates the current TLS/SSL connection. The connection should
have been initiated using ‘gnutls_handshake()’ . ‘how’ should be
one of ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR’ , ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ .
In case of ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR’ the TLS session gets terminated and
further receives and sends will be disallowed. If the return value
is zero you may continue using the underlying transport layer.
‘GNUTLS_SHUT_RDWR’ sends an alert containing a close request and
waits for the peer to reply with the same message.
In case of ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ the TLS session gets terminated and
further sends will be disallowed. In order to reuse the connection
you should wait for an EOF from the peer. ‘GNUTLS_SHUT_WR’ sends
an alert containing a close request.
Note that not all implementations will properly terminate a TLS
connection. Some of them, usually for performance reasons, will
terminate only the underlying transport layer, and thus not
distinguishing between a malicious party prematurely terminating
the connection and normal termination.
This function may also return ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ ; cf. ‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code, see
function documentation for entire semantics.

(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
This function will delete all the CA name in the given credentials.
Clients may call this to save some memory since in client side the
CA names are not used. Servers might want to use this function if
a large list of trusted CAs is present and sending the names of it
would just consume bandwidth without providing information to
client.
CA names are used by servers to advertise the CAs they support to
clients.
gnutls_certificate_free_cas
---------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_free_cas
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.

-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_free_credentials
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
Free a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t structure.
This function does not free any temporary parameters associated
with this structure (ie RSA and DH parameters are not freed by this
function).
gnutls_certificate_free_crls
----------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_free_crls
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
This function will delete all the CRLs associated with the given
credentials.
gnutls_certificate_free_keys
----------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_free_keys
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
This function will delete all the keys and the certificates
associated with the given credentials. This function must not be
called when a TLS negotiation that uses the credentials is in
progress.
gnutls_certificate_get_crt_raw
------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_get_crt_raw
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, unsigned IDX1, unsigned
IDX2, gnutls_datum_t * CERT)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
IDX1: the index of the certificate chain if multiple are present
IDX2: the index of the certificate in the chain. Zero gives the
server’s certificate.
CERT: Will hold the DER encoded certificate.
This function will return the DER encoded certificate of the server
or any other certificate on its certificate chain (based on ‘idx2’
). The returned data should be treated as constant and only
accessible during the lifetime of ‘sc’ . The ‘idx1’ matches the
value ‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key()’ and friends functions.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value. In case the indexes are out of
bounds ‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned.
*Since:* 3.2.5
gnutls_certificate_get_issuer
-----------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_get_issuer
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT,
gnutls_x509_crt_t * ISSUER, unsigned int FLAGS)
SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
CERT: is the certificate to find issuer for
ISSUER: Will hold the issuer if any. Should be treated as
constant.
FLAGS: Use zero or ‘GNUTLS_TL_GET_COPY’
This function will return the issuer of a given certificate. If
the flag ‘GNUTLS_TL_GET_COPY’ is specified a copy of the issuer
will be returned which must be freed using
‘gnutls_x509_crt_deinit()’ . In that case the provided ‘issuer’
must not be initialized.
As with ‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_get_issuer()’ this function
requires the ‘GNUTLS_TL_GET_COPY’ flag in order to operate with
PKCS‘11’ trust lists in a thread-safe way.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_certificate_get_ocsp_expiration
--------------------------------------
-- Function: time_t gnutls_certificate_get_ocsp_expiration
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, unsigned IDX, int OIDX,
unsigned FLAGS)
SC: is a credentials structure.
IDX: is a certificate chain index as returned by
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ and friends
OIDX: is an OCSP response index
FLAGS: should be zero
This function returns the validity of the loaded OCSP responses, to
provide information on when to reload/refresh them.
Note that the credentials structure should be read-only when in
use, thus when reloading, either the credentials structure must not
be in use by any sessions, or a new credentials structure should be
allocated for new sessions.
When ‘oidx’ is (-1) then the minimum refresh time for all responses
is returned. Otherwise the index specifies the response
corresponding to the ‘odix’ certificate in the certificate chain.
*Returns:* On success, the expiration time of the OCSP response.
Otherwise (time_t)(-1) on error, or (time_t)-2 on out of bounds.
*Since:* 3.6.3
gnutls_certificate_get_ours
---------------------------
-- Function: const gnutls_datum_t * gnutls_certificate_get_ours
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
Gets the certificate as sent to the peer in the last handshake.
The certificate is in raw (DER) format. No certificate list is
being returned. Only the first certificate.
This function returns the certificate that was sent in the current
handshake. In subsequent resumed sessions this function will
return ‘NULL’ . That differs from ‘gnutls_certificate_get_peers()’
which always returns the peer’s certificate used in the original
session.
*Returns:* a pointer to a ‘gnutls_datum_t’ containing our
certificate, or ‘NULL’ in case of an error or if no certificate was
used.
gnutls_certificate_get_peers
----------------------------
-- Function: const gnutls_datum_t * gnutls_certificate_get_peers
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int * LIST_SIZE)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
LIST_SIZE: is the length of the certificate list (may be ‘NULL’ )
Get the peer’s raw certificate (chain) as sent by the peer. These
certificates are in raw format (DER encoded for X.509). In case of
a X.509 then a certificate list may be present. The list is
provided as sent by the server; the server must send as first
certificate in the list its own certificate, following the issuer’s
certificate, then the issuer’s issuer etc. However, there are
servers which violate this principle and thus on certain occasions
this may be an unsorted list.
In resumed sessions, this function will return the peer’s
certificate list as used in the first/original session.
*Returns:* a pointer to a ‘gnutls_datum_t’ containing the peer’s
certificates, or ‘NULL’ in case of an error or if no certificate
was used.
gnutls_certificate_get_peers_subkey_id
--------------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_get_peers_subkey_id
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_datum_t * ID)

gnutls_x509_crt_t ** CRT_LIST, unsigned * CRT_LIST_SIZE)
RES: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
INDEX: The index of the certificate list to obtain.
CRT_LIST: Where to store the certificate list.
CRT_LIST_SIZE: Will hold the number of certificates.
Obtains a X.509 certificate list that has been stored in ‘res’ with
one of ‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_mem()’ , or
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_mem2()’ . Each certificate in the
returned certificate list must be deallocated with
‘gnutls_x509_crt_deinit()’ , and the list itself must be freed with
‘gnutls_free()’ .
The ‘index’ matches the return value of
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key()’ and friends functions, when the
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ flag is set.
If there is no certificate with the given index,
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned. If the
certificate with the given index is not a X.509 certificate,
‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ is returned. The returned certificates
must be deinitialized after use, and the ‘crt_list’ pointer must be
freed using ‘gnutls_free()’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success, or a negative error
code.
*Since:* 3.4.0
gnutls_certificate_get_x509_key
-------------------------------

gnutls_x509_privkey_t * KEY)
RES: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
INDEX: The index of the key to obtain.
KEY: Location to store the key.
Obtains a X.509 private key that has been stored in ‘res’ with one
of ‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file2()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_mem()’ , or
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_mem2()’ . The returned key must
be deallocated with ‘gnutls_x509_privkey_deinit()’ when no longer
needed.
The ‘index’ matches the return value of
‘gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key()’ and friends functions, when the
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ flag is set.
If there is no key with the given index,
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned. If the key
with the given index is not a X.509 key, ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’
is returned.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success, or a negative error
code.
*Since:* 3.4.0
gnutls_certificate_send_x509_rdn_sequence
-----------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_send_x509_rdn_sequence
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, int STATUS)
SESSION: a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
STATUS: is 0 or 1
If status is non zero, this function will order gnutls not to send
the rdnSequence in the certificate request message. That is the
server will not advertise its trusted CAs to the peer. If status
is zero then the default behaviour will take effect, which is to
advertise the server’s trusted CAs.
This function has no effect in clients, and in authentication
methods other than certificate with X.509 certificates.
gnutls_certificate_server_set_request
-------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_server_set_request
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_certificate_request_t REQ)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
REQ: is one of GNUTLS_CERT_REQUEST, GNUTLS_CERT_REQUIRE,
GNUTLS_CERT_IGNORE
This function specifies if we (in case of a server) are going to
send a certificate request message to the client. If ‘req’ is
GNUTLS_CERT_REQUIRE then the server will return the
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_FOUND’ error if the peer does not provide
a certificate. If you do not call this function then the client
will not be asked to send a certificate. Invoking the function
with ‘req’ GNUTLS_CERT_IGNORE has the same effect.
gnutls_certificate_set_dh_params
--------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_dh_params
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, gnutls_dh_params_t
DH_PARAMS)
RES: is a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type
DH_PARAMS: the Diffie-Hellman parameters.
This function will set the Diffie-Hellman parameters for a
certificate server to use. These parameters will be used in
Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman cipher suites. Note that only a pointer
to the parameters are stored in the certificate handle, so you must
not deallocate the parameters before the certificate is
deallocated.
*Deprecated:* This function is unnecessary and discouraged on
GnuTLS 3.6.0 or later. Since 3.6.0, DH parameters are negotiated
following RFC7919.
gnutls_certificate_set_flags
----------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_flags
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, unsigned int FLAGS)
RES: is a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type
FLAGS: are the flags of ‘gnutls_certificate_flags’ type
This function will set flags to tweak the operation of the
credentials structure. See the ‘gnutls_certificate_flags’
enumerations for more information on the available flags.
*Since:* 3.4.7
gnutls_certificate_set_known_dh_params
--------------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_set_known_dh_params

SEC_PARAM)
RES: is a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type
SEC_PARAM: is an option of the ‘gnutls_sec_param_t’ enumeration
This function will set the Diffie-Hellman parameters for a
certificate server to use. These parameters will be used in
Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman cipher suites and will be selected from
the FFDHE set of RFC7919 according to the security level provided.
*Deprecated:* This function is unnecessary and discouraged on
GnuTLS 3.6.0 or later. Since 3.6.0, DH parameters are negotiated
following RFC7919.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.5.6
gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file
-----------------------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, const char *
RESPONSE_FILE, unsigned IDX)
SC: is a credentials structure.
RESPONSE_FILE: a filename of the OCSP response
IDX: is a certificate index as returned by
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ and friends
This function loads the provided OCSP response. It will be sent to
the client if requests an OCSP certificate status for the
certificate chain specified by ‘idx’ .
*Note:* the ability to set multiple OCSP responses per credential
structure via the index ‘idx’ was added in version 3.5.6. To keep
backwards compatibility, it requires using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ with the
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ flag to make the set certificate
functions return an index usable by this function.
This function can be called multiple times since GnuTLS 3.6.3 when
multiple responses which apply to the chain are available. If the
response provided does not match any certificates present in the
chain, the code ‘GNUTLS_E_OCSP_MISMATCH_WITH_CERTS’ is returned.
To revert to the previous behavior set the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_SKIP_OCSP_RESPONSE_CHECK’ in the certificate
credentials structure. In that case, only the end-certificate’s
OCSP response can be set. If the response is already expired at
the time of loading the code ‘GNUTLS_E_EXPIRED’ is returned.
To revert to the previous behavior of this function which does not
return any errors, set the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_SKIP_OCSP_RESPONSE_CHECK’
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.1.3
gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file2
------------------------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_file2
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t SC, const char *
RESPONSE_FILE, unsigned IDX, gnutls_x509_crt_fmt_t FMT)
SC: is a credentials structure.
RESPONSE_FILE: a filename of the OCSP response
IDX: is a certificate index as returned by
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ and friends
FMT: is PEM or DER
This function loads the OCSP responses to be sent to the peer for
the certificate chain specified by ‘idx’ . When ‘fmt’ is set to
PEM, multiple responses can be loaded.
This function must be called after setting any certificates, and
cannot be used for certificates that are provided via a callback –
that is when ‘gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function()’ is used.
In that case consider using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function3()’ .
This function can be called multiple times when multiple responses
applicable to the certificate chain are available. If the response
provided does not match any certificates present in the chain, the
code ‘GNUTLS_E_OCSP_MISMATCH_WITH_CERTS’ is returned. If the
response is already expired at the time of loading the code
‘GNUTLS_E_EXPIRED’ is returned.
*Returns:* On success, the number of loaded responses is returned,
otherwise a negative error code.

SC: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
OCSP_FUNC: function pointer to OCSP status request callback.
PTR: opaque pointer passed to callback function
This function is to be used by server to register a callback to
handle OCSP status requests from the client. The callback will be
invoked if the client supplied a status-request OCSP extension.
The callback function prototype is:
typedef int (*gnutls_status_request_ocsp_func) (gnutls_session_t
session, void *ptr, gnutls_datum_t *ocsp_response);
The callback will be invoked if the client requests an OCSP
certificate status. The callback may return
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_STATUS’ , if there is no recent OCSP
response. If the callback returns ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ , it is
expected to have the ‘ocsp_response’ field set with a valid
(DER-encoded) OCSP response. The response must be a value
allocated using ‘gnutls_malloc()’ , and will be deinitialized by
the caller.
It is possible to set a specific callback for each provided
certificate using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_function2()’ .
*Since:* 3.1.3
gnutls_certificate_set_ocsp_status_request_function2

IDX: is a certificate index as returned by
‘gnutls_certificate_set_key()’ and friends
OCSP_FUNC: function pointer to OCSP status request callback.
PTR: opaque pointer passed to callback function
This function is to be used by server to register a callback to
provide OCSP status requests that correspond to the indexed
certificate chain from the client. The callback will be invoked if
the client supplied a status-request OCSP extension.
The callback function prototype is:
typedef int (*gnutls_status_request_ocsp_func) (gnutls_session_t
session, void *ptr, gnutls_datum_t *ocsp_response);
The callback will be invoked if the client requests an OCSP
certificate status. The callback may return
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_STATUS’ , if there is no recent OCSP
response. If the callback returns ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ , it is
expected to have the ‘ocsp_response’ field set with a valid
(DER-encoded) OCSP response. The response must be a value
allocated using ‘gnutls_malloc()’ , and will be deinitialized by
the caller.
*Note:* the ability to set multiple OCSP responses per credential
structure via the index ‘idx’ was added in version 3.5.6. To keep
backwards compatibility, it requires using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ with the
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ flag to make the set certificate
functions return an index usable by this function.

(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, gnutls_params_function
* FUNC)
RES: is a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type
FUNC: is the function to be called
This function will set a callback in order for the server to get
the Diffie-Hellman or RSA parameters for certificate
authentication. The callback should return ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0)
on success.

CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
RAWPKFILE: contains a raw public key in PKIX.SubjectPublicKeyInfo
format.
PRIVKEYFILE: contains a file path to a private key.
FORMAT: encoding of the keys. DER or PEM.
PASS: an optional password to unlock the private key privkeyfile.
KEY_USAGE: an ORed sequence of ‘GNUTLS_KEY_’ * flags.
NAMES: is an array of DNS names belonging to the public-key (NULL
if none).
NAMES_LENGTH: holds the length of the names list.
PRIVKEY_FLAGS: an ORed sequence of ‘gnutls_pkcs_encrypt_flags_t’ .
These apply to the private key pkey.
PKCS11_FLAGS: one of gnutls_pkcs11_obj_flags. These apply to URLs.
This function sets a public/private keypair read from file in the
‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type to be used for
authentication and/or encryption. ‘spki’ and ‘privkey’ should
match otherwise set signatures cannot be validated. In case of no
match this function returns ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ .
This function should be called once for the client because there is
currently no mechanism to determine which raw public-key to select
for the peer when there are multiple present. Multiple raw public
keys for the server can be distinghuished by setting the ‘names’ .
Note here that ‘spki’ is a raw public-key as defined in RFC7250.
It means that there is no surrounding certificate that holds the
public key and that there is therefore no direct mechanism to prove
the authenticity of this key. The keypair can be used during a TLS
handshake but its authenticity should be established via a
different mechanism (e.g. TOFU or known fingerprint).
The supported formats are basic unencrypted key, PKCS8, PKCS12, and
the openssl format and will be autodetected.
If the raw public-key and the private key are given in PEM encoding
then the strings that hold their values must be null terminated.
Key usage (as defined by X.509 extension (2.5.29.15)) can be
explicitly set because there is no certificate structure around the
key to define this value. See for more info
‘gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_usage()’ .
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used in other functions to refer
to the added key-pair.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, in case
the key pair does not match ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ is
returned, in other erroneous cases a different negative error code
is returned.

‘gnutls_x509_crt_get_key_usage()’ .
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used in other functions to refer
to the added key-pair.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, in case
the key pair does not match ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ is
returned, in other erroneous cases a different negative error code
is returned.
*Since:* 3.6.6
gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function
----------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function sets a callback to be called in order to retrieve the
certificate to be used in the handshake. The callback will take
control only if a certificate is requested by the peer. You are
advised to use ‘gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2()’
because it is much more efficient in the processing it requires
from gnutls.
The callback’s function prototype is: int
(*callback)(gnutls_session_t, const gnutls_datum_t* req_ca_dn, int
nreqs, const gnutls_pk_algorithm_t* pk_algos, int pk_algos_length,
gnutls_retr2_st* st);
‘req_ca_dn’ is only used in X.509 certificates. Contains a list
with the CA names that the server considers trusted. This is a
hint and typically the client should send a certificate that is
signed by one of these CAs. These names, when available, are DER
encoded. To get a more meaningful value use the function
‘gnutls_x509_rdn_get()’ .
‘pk_algos’ contains a list with server’s acceptable public key
algorithms. The certificate returned should support the server’s
given algorithms.
‘st’ should contain the certificates and private keys.
If the callback function is provided then gnutls will call it, in
the handshake, after the certificate request message has been
received.
In server side pk_algos and req_ca_dn are NULL.
The callback function should set the certificate list to be sent,
and return 0 on success. If no certificate was selected then the
number of certificates should be set to zero. The value (-1)
indicates error and the handshake will be terminated. If both
certificates are set in the credentials and a callback is
available, the callback takes predence.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags
-----------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, unsigned int FLAGS)
RES: is a gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type

certificates and override any defaults. The provided flags must be
an OR of the ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’ enumerations.
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function
--------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_certificate_verify_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function sets a callback to be called when peer’s certificate
has been received in order to verify it on receipt rather than
doing after the handshake is completed.
The callback’s function prototype is: int
(*callback)(gnutls_session_t);
If the callback function is provided then gnutls will call it, in
the handshake, just after the certificate message has been
received. To verify or obtain the certificate the
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_type_get()’ , ‘gnutls_certificate_get_peers()’
functions can be used.
The callback function should return 0 for the handshake to continue
or non-zero to terminate.
*Since:* 2.10.0
gnutls_certificate_set_verify_limits
------------------------------------

MAX_BITS: is the number of bits of an acceptable certificate
(default 8200)
MAX_DEPTH: is maximum depth of the verification of a certificate
chain (default 5)
This function will set some upper limits for the default
verification function, ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2()’ , to
avoid denial of service attacks. You can set them to zero to
disable limits.
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_crl
-------------------------------

CRL_LIST: is a list of trusted CRLs. They should have been
verified before.
CRL_LIST_SIZE: holds the size of the crl_list
This function adds the trusted CRLs in order to verify client or
server certificates. In case of a client this is not required to
be called if the certificates are not verified using
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2()’ . This function may be called
multiple times.

This function sets a certificate/private key pair in the
gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type. This function may be called
more than once, in case multiple keys/certificates exist for the
server. For clients that wants to send more than their own end
entity certificate (e.g., also an intermediate CA cert) then put
the certificate chain in ‘cert_list’ .
Note that the certificates and keys provided, can be safely
deinitialized after this function is called.
If that function fails to load the ‘res’ type is at an undefined
state, it must not be reused to load other keys or certificates.
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used to other functions to refer
to the added key-pair.
*Returns:* On success this functions returns zero, and otherwise a
negative value on error (see above for modifying that behavior).
*Since:* 2.4.0
gnutls_certificate_set_x509_key_file

CERTFILE: is a file that containing the certificate list (path) for
the specified private key, in PKCS7 format, or a list of
certificates
KEYFILE: is a file that contains the private key
TYPE: is PEM or DER
This function sets a certificate/private key pair in the
gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type. This function may be called
more than once, in case multiple keys/certificates exist for the
server. For clients that need to send more than its own end entity
certificate, e.g., also an intermediate CA cert, then the
‘certfile’ must contain the ordered certificate chain.
Note that the names in the certificate provided will be considered
when selecting the appropriate certificate to use (in case of
multiple certificate/key pairs).
This function can also accept URLs at ‘keyfile’ and ‘certfile’ .
In that case it will use the private key and certificate indicated
by the URLs. Note that the supported URLs are the ones indicated
by ‘gnutls_url_is_supported()’ .
In case the ‘certfile’ is provided as a PKCS ‘11’ URL, then the
certificate, and its present issuers in the token are imported
(i.e., forming the required trust chain).
If that function fails to load the ‘res’ structure is at an
undefined state, it must not be reused to load other keys or
certificates.
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used to other functions to refer
to the added key-pair.

certificate, e.g., also an intermediate CA cert, then the
‘certfile’ must contain the ordered certificate chain.
Note that the names in the certificate provided will be considered
when selecting the appropriate certificate to use (in case of
multiple certificate/key pairs).
This function can also accept URLs at ‘keyfile’ and ‘certfile’ .
In that case it will use the private key and certificate indicated
by the URLs. Note that the supported URLs are the ones indicated
by ‘gnutls_url_is_supported()’ . Before GnuTLS 3.4.0 when a URL
was specified, the ‘pass’ part was ignored and a PIN callback had
to be registered, this is no longer the case in current releases.
In case the ‘certfile’ is provided as a PKCS ‘11’ URL, then the
certificate, and its present issuers in the token are imported
(i.e., forming the required trust chain).
If that function fails to load the ‘res’ structure is at an
undefined state, it must not be reused to load other keys or
certificates.

more than once, in case multiple keys/certificates exist for the
server.
Note that the keyUsage (2.5.29.15) PKIX extension in X.509
certificates is supported. This means that certificates intended
for signing cannot be used for ciphersuites that require
encryption.
If the certificate and the private key are given in PEM encoding
then the strings that hold their values must be null terminated.
The ‘key’ may be ‘NULL’ if you are using a sign callback, see
‘gnutls_sign_callback_set()’ .
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used to other functions to refer

This function sets a certificate/private key pair in the
gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type. This function may be called
more than once, in case multiple keys/certificates exist for the
server.
Note that the keyUsage (2.5.29.15) PKIX extension in X.509
certificates is supported. This means that certificates intended
for signing cannot be used for ciphersuites that require

If the certificate and the private key are given in PEM encoding
then the strings that hold their values must be null terminated.
The ‘key’ may be ‘NULL’ if you are using a sign callback, see

Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used to other functions to refer

PASSWORD: optional password used to decrypt PKCS‘12’ file, bags and
keys.
This function sets a certificate/private key pair and/or a CRL in
the gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type. This function may be
called more than once (in case multiple keys/certificates exist for
the server).
PKCS‘12’ files with a MAC, encrypted bags and PKCS ‘8’ private keys
are supported. However, only password based security, and the same
password for all operations, are supported.
PKCS‘12’ file may contain many keys and/or certificates, and this
function will try to auto-detect based on the key ID the
certificate and key pair to use. If the PKCS‘12’ file contain the
issuer of the selected certificate, it will be appended to the
certificate to form a chain.
If more than one private keys are stored in the PKCS‘12’ file, then
only one key will be read (and it is undefined which one).
It is believed that the limitations of this function is acceptable
for most usage, and that any more flexibility would introduce
complexity that would make it harder to use this functionality at
all.

This function returns the type of the certificate that is
negotiated for this side to send to the peer. The certificate type
is by default X.509, unless an alternative certificate type is
enabled by ‘gnutls_init()’ and negotiated during the session.
Resumed sessions will return the certificate type that was
negotiated and used in the original session.
As of version 3.6.4 it is recommended to use
‘gnutls_certificate_type_get2()’ which is more fine-grained.

connection set up where you don’t know in advance who will be
client and who will be server you can use the flag
(‘GNUTLS_CTYPE_OURS’ ) and (‘GNUTLS_CTYPE_PEERS’ ) to retrieve the
corresponding certificate types.
Resumed sessions will return the certificate type that was
negotiated and used in the original session. That is, this
function can be used to reliably determine the type of the
certificate returned by ‘gnutls_certificate_get_peers()’ .
*Returns:* the currently used ‘gnutls_certificate_type_t’
certificate type for the client or the server.

gnutls_certificate_verify_peers
-------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_verify_peers (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * DATA, unsigned int ELEMENTS,
unsigned int * STATUS)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
DATA: an array of typed data
ELEMENTS: the number of data elements
STATUS: is the output of the verification
This function will verify the peer’s certificate and store the the
status in the ‘status’ variable as a bitwise OR of
gnutls_certificate_status_t values or zero if the certificate is
trusted. Note that value in ‘status’ is set only when the return
value of this function is success (i.e, failure to trust a
certificate does not imply a negative return value). The default
verification flags used by this function can be overridden using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags()’ . See the documentation of
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2()’ for details in the
verification process.
This function will take into account the stapled OCSP responses
sent by the server, as well as the following X.509 certificate
extensions: Name Constraints, Key Usage, and Basic Constraints
(pathlen).
The acceptable ‘data’ types are ‘GNUTLS_DT_DNS_HOSTNAME’ ,
‘GNUTLS_DT_RFC822NAME’ and ‘GNUTLS_DT_KEY_PURPOSE_OID’ . The
former two accept as data a null-terminated hostname or email
address, and the latter a null-terminated object identifier (e.g.,
‘GNUTLS_KP_TLS_WWW_SERVER’ ).
If a DNS hostname is provided then this function will compare the
hostname in the certificate against the given. If names do not
match the ‘GNUTLS_CERT_UNEXPECTED_OWNER’ status flag will be set.
If a key purpose OID is provided and the end-certificate contains
the extended key usage PKIX extension, it will be required to be
have the provided key purpose or be marked for any purpose,
otherwise verification status will have the
‘GNUTLS_CERT_SIGNER_CONSTRAINTS_FAILURE’ flag set.
To avoid denial of service attacks some default upper limits
regarding the certificate key size and chain size are set. To
override them use ‘gnutls_certificate_set_verify_limits()’ .
Note that when using raw public-keys verification will not work
because there is no corresponding certificate body belonging to the
raw key that can be verified. In that case this function will
return ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) when the validation is performed,
or a negative error code otherwise. A successful error code means
that the ‘status’ parameter must be checked to obtain the
validation status.
*Since:* 3.3.0

value of this function is success (i.e, failure to trust a
certificate does not imply a negative return value). The default
verification flags used by this function can be overridden using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_verify_flags()’ .
This function will take into account the stapled OCSP responses
sent by the server, as well as the following X.509 certificate
extensions: Name Constraints, Key Usage, and Basic Constraints
(pathlen).
Note that you must also check the peer’s name in order to check if
the verified certificate belongs to the actual peer, see
‘gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname()’ , or use
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3()’ .
To avoid denial of service attacks some default upper limits
regarding the certificate key size and chain size are set. To
override them use ‘gnutls_certificate_set_verify_limits()’ .
Note that when using raw public-keys verification will not work
because there is no corresponding certificate body belonging to the
raw key that can be verified. In that case this function will
return ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) when the validation is performed,
or a negative error code otherwise. A successful error code means
that the ‘status’ parameter must be checked to obtain the
validation status.

‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2()’ for details in the
verification process.
This function will take into account the stapled OCSP responses
sent by the server, as well as the following X.509 certificate
extensions: Name Constraints, Key Usage, and Basic Constraints
(pathlen).
If the ‘hostname’ provided is non-NULL then this function will
compare the hostname in the certificate against it. The comparison
will follow the RFC6125 recommendations. If names do not match the
‘GNUTLS_CERT_UNEXPECTED_OWNER’ status flag will be set.
In order to verify the purpose of the end-certificate (by checking
the extended key usage), use ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers()’ .
To avoid denial of service attacks some default upper limits
regarding the certificate key size and chain size are set. To
override them use ‘gnutls_certificate_set_verify_limits()’ .
Note that when using raw public-keys verification will not work
because there is no corresponding certificate body belonging to the
raw key that can be verified. In that case this function will
return ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) when the validation is performed,

SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
METHODS: is a list of supported compression methods.
METHODS_LEN: number of compression methods in ‘methods’
This function sets the supported compression methods for
certificate compression for the given session. The list of
supported compression methods will be used for a) requesting the
compression of peer’s certificate and b) selecting the method to
compress the local certificate before sending it to the peer. The
order of compression methods inside the list does matter as the
method that appears earlier in the list will be preffered before
the later ones. Note that even if you set the list of supported
compression methods, the compression might not be used if the peer
does not support any of your chosen compression methods.
The list of supported compression methods must meet the following
criteria: Argument ‘methods’ must be an array of valid compression
methods of type ‘gnutls_compression_method_t’ . Argument
‘methods_len’ must contain the number of compression methods stored
in the ‘methods’ array and must be within range <1, 127>. The
length constraints are defined by
‘MIN_COMPRESS_CERTIFICATE_METHODS’ and
‘MAX_COMPRESS_CERTIFICATE_METHODS’ macros located in the header
file compress_certificate.h.
If either ‘methods’ or ‘methods_len’ is equal to 0, current list of
supported compression methods will be unset.

--------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_dh_params_generate2 (gnutls_dh_params_t
DPARAMS, unsigned int BITS)
DPARAMS: The parameters
BITS: is the prime’s number of bits
This function will generate a new pair of prime and generator for
use in the Diffie-Hellman key exchange. This may take long time.
It is recommended not to set the number of bits directly, but use
‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ instead. Also note that the DH
parameters are only useful to servers. Since clients use the
parameters sent by the server, it’s of no use to call this in
client side.

unsigned int BITS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
BITS: is the number of bits
This function sets the number of bits, for use in a Diffie-Hellman
key exchange. This is used both in DH ephemeral and DH anonymous
cipher suites. This will set the minimum size of the prime that
will be used for the handshake.
In the client side it sets the minimum accepted number of bits. If
a server sends a prime with less bits than that
‘GNUTLS_E_DH_PRIME_UNACCEPTABLE’ will be returned by the handshake.
Note that this function will warn via the audit log for value that
are believed to be weak.
The function has no effect in server side.
Note that since 3.1.7 this function is deprecated. The minimum
number of bits is set by the priority string level. Also this
function must be called after ‘gnutls_priority_set_direct()’ or the
set value may be overridden by the selected priority options.

CURVE, unsigned int ENABLED)
CURVE: is an ECC curve
ENABLED: whether to enable the curve
Modify the previous system wide setting that marked ‘curve’ as
enabled or disabled. Calling this fuction is allowed only if
allowlisting mode is set in the configuration file, and only if the
system-wide TLS priority string has not been initialized yet. The
intended usage is to provide applications with a way to expressly
deviate from the distribution or site defaults inherited from the
configuration file. The modification is composable with further
modifications performed through the priority string mechanism.
This function is not thread-safe and is intended to be called in
the main thread at the beginning of the process execution.
*Returns:* 0 on success or negative error code otherwise.
*Since:* 3.7.3
gnutls_error_is_fatal
---------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_error_is_fatal (int ERROR)
ERROR: is a GnuTLS error code, a negative error code
If a GnuTLS function returns a negative error code you may feed
that value to this function to see if the error condition is fatal
to a TLS session (i.e., must be terminated).
Note that you may also want to check the error code manually, since
some non-fatal errors to the protocol (such as a warning alert or a
rehandshake request) may be fatal for your program.
This function is only useful if you are dealing with errors from
functions that relate to a TLS session (e.g., record layer or
handshake layer handling functions).
*Returns:* Non-zero value on fatal errors or zero on non-fatal.
gnutls_error_to_alert
---------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_error_to_alert (int ERR, int * LEVEL)
ERR: is a negative integer
LEVEL: the alert level will be stored there
Get an alert depending on the error code returned by a gnutls
function. All alerts sent by this function should be considered
fatal. The only exception is when ‘err’ is ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’
, where a warning alert should be sent to the peer indicating that
no renegotiation will be performed.
If there is no mapping to a valid alert the alert to indicate
internal error (‘GNUTLS_A_INTERNAL_ERROR’ ) is returned.
*Returns:* the alert code to use for a particular error code.

This function will return the set size in bytes of the overhead due
to TLS (or DTLS) per record.
Note that this function may provide inaccurate values when TLS
extensions that modify the record format are negotiated. In these
cases a more accurate value can be obtained using
‘gnutls_record_overhead_size()’ after a completed handshake.
*Since:* 3.2.2
gnutls_ext_get_current_msg
--------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_ext_get_current_msg (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: a ‘gnutls_session_t’ opaque pointer
This function allows an extension handler to obtain the message
this extension is being called from. The returned value is a
single entry of the ‘gnutls_ext_flags_t’ enumeration. That is, if
an extension was registered with the ‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_HRR’ and
‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_EE’ flags, the value when called during parsing of
the encrypted extensions message will be ‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_EE’ .
If not called under an extension handler, its value is undefined.
*Since:* 3.6.3

unsigned int FLAGS)
CTX: a pointer to pass to callback function
CB: callback function to process each extension found
DATA: TLS extension data
FLAGS: should be zero or ‘GNUTLS_EXT_RAW_FLAG_TLS_CLIENT_HELLO’ or
‘GNUTLS_EXT_RAW_FLAG_DTLS_CLIENT_HELLO’
This function iterates through the TLS extensions as passed in
‘data’ , passing the individual extension data to callback. The
‘data’ must conform to Extension extensions<0..2^16-1> format.
If flags is ‘GNUTLS_EXT_RAW_TLS_FLAG_CLIENT_HELLO’ then this
function will parse the extension data from the position, as if the
packet in ‘data’ is a client hello (without record or handshake
headers) - as provided by ‘gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function()’ .
The return value of the callback will be propagated.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code. On
unknown flags it returns ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .

gnutls_ext_parse_type_t)
RECV_FUNC: a function to receive the data
SEND_FUNC: a function to send the data
DEINIT_FUNC: a function deinitialize any private data
PACK_FUNC: a function which serializes the extension’s private data
(used on session packing for resumption)
UNPACK_FUNC: a function which will deserialize the extension’s
private data
This function will register a new extension type. The extension
will remain registered until ‘gnutls_global_deinit()’ is called.
If the extension type is already registered then
‘GNUTLS_E_ALREADY_REGISTERED’ will be returned.
Each registered extension can store temporary data into the
gnutls_session_t structure using ‘gnutls_ext_set_data()’ , and they
can be retrieved using ‘gnutls_ext_get_data()’ .
Any extensions registered with this function are valid for the
client and TLS1.2 server hello (or encrypted extensions for
TLS1.3).
This function is not thread safe.

const gnutls_datum_t * DATA, void * RESULT, size_t *
RESULT_SIZE)
ALGO: is a digest algorithm
DATA: is the data
RESULT: is the place where the result will be copied (may be null).
RESULT_SIZE: should hold the size of the result. The actual size
of the returned result will also be copied there.
This function will calculate a fingerprint (actually a hash), of
the given data. The result is not printable data. You should
convert it to hex, or to something else printable.
This is the usual way to calculate a fingerprint of an X.509 DER
encoded certificate. Note however that the fingerprint of an
OpenPGP certificate is not just a hash and cannot be calculated
with this function.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_fips140_context_deinit
-----------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_fips140_context_deinit

Get the previous operation state of ‘context’ in terms of FIPS.
*Returns:* a ‘gnutls_fips140_operation_state_t’
*Since:* 3.7.3
gnutls_fips140_mode_enabled
---------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_fips140_mode_enabled ( VOID)
Checks whether this library is in FIPS140 mode. The returned value
corresponds to the library mode as set with
‘gnutls_fips140_set_mode()’ .
If ‘gnutls_fips140_set_mode()’ was called with
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD’ then this function will return the
current thread’s FIPS140 mode, otherwise the global value is
returned.
*Returns:* return non-zero if true or zero if false.
*Since:* 3.3.0
gnutls_fips140_pop_context
--------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_fips140_pop_context ( VOID)
Dissociate the FIPS context currently active on the current thread,
reverting to the previously active context. If a cryptographic
operation is ongoing in the current thread, e.g.,
‘gnutls_aead_cipher_init()’ is called but
‘gnutls_aead_cipher_deinit()’ is not yet called, it returns an
error ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
This function is no-op if FIPS140 is not compiled in nor enabled at
run-time.
*Returns:* 0 upon success, a negative error code otherwise
*Since:* 3.7.3
gnutls_fips140_push_context
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_fips140_push_context (gnutls_fips140_context_t
CONTEXT)
CONTEXT: a ‘gnutls_fips140_context_t’
Associate the FIPS ‘context’ to the current thread, diverting the
currently active context. If a cryptographic operation is ongoing
in the current thread, e.g., ‘gnutls_aead_cipher_init()’ is called
but ‘gnutls_aead_cipher_deinit()’ is not yet called, it returns an
error ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
The operation state of ‘context’ will be reset to
‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_OP_INITIAL’ .
This function is no-op if FIPS140 is not compiled in nor enabled at
run-time.
*Returns:* 0 upon success, a negative error code otherwise
*Since:* 3.7.3
gnutls_fips140_run_self_tests
-----------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_fips140_run_self_tests ( VOID)
Manually perform the second round of the FIPS140 self-tests,
including:
- Known answer tests (KAT) for the selected set of symmetric
cipher, MAC, public key, KDF, and DRBG - Library integrity checks
Upon failure with FIPS140 mode enabled, it makes the library
unusable. This function is not thread-safe.
*Returns:* 0 upon success, a negative error code otherwise
*Since:* 3.7.7
gnutls_fips140_set_mode
-----------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_fips140_set_mode (gnutls_fips_mode_t MODE,
unsigned FLAGS)
MODE: the FIPS140-2 mode to switch to
FLAGS: should be zero or ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD’
That function is not thread-safe when changing the mode with no
flags (globally), and should be called prior to creating any
threads. Its behavior with no flags after threads are created is
undefined.
When the flag ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SET_MODE_THREAD’ is specified then
this call will change the FIPS140-2 mode for this particular thread
and not for the whole process. That way an application can utilize
this function to set and reset mode for specific operations.
This function never fails but will be a no-op if used when the
library is not in FIPS140-2 mode. When asked to switch to unknown
values for ‘mode’ or to ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_SELFTESTS’ mode, the
library switches to ‘GNUTLS_FIPS140_STRICT’ mode.
*Since:* 3.6.2
gnutls_get_library_config
-------------------------
-- Function: const gnutls_library_config_st * gnutls_get_library_config
( VOID)
Returns the library configuration as key value pairs. Currently
defined keys are:
- fips-module-name: the name of the FIPS140 module
- fips-module-version: the version of the FIPS140 module
- libgnutls-soname: the SONAME of the library itself
- libnettle-soname: the library SONAME of linked libnettle
- libhogweed-soname: the library SONAME of linked libhogweed
- libgmp-soname: the library SONAME of linked libgmp
- hardware-features: enabled hardware support features
- tls-features: enabled TLS protocol features
*Returns:* a NUL-terminated ‘gnutls_library_config_st’ array
*Since:* 3.7.3

-----------------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_get_system_config_file ( VOID)
Returns the filename of the system wide configuration file to be
loaded by the library.
*Returns:* a constant pointer to the config file path
*Since:* 3.6.9
gnutls_global_deinit
--------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_global_deinit ( VOID)
This function deinitializes the global data, that were initialized
using ‘gnutls_global_init()’ .
Since GnuTLS 3.3.0 this function is no longer necessary to be
explicitly called. GnuTLS will automatically deinitialize on
library destructor. See ‘gnutls_global_init()’ for disabling the
implicit initialization/deinitialization.
gnutls_global_init
------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_global_init ( VOID)
Since GnuTLS 3.3.0 this function is no longer necessary to be
explicitly called. To disable the implicit call (in a library
constructor) of this function set the environment variable
‘GNUTLS_NO_IMPLICIT_INIT’ to 1.
This function performs any required precalculations, detects the
supported CPU capabilities and initializes the underlying
cryptographic backend. In order to free any resources taken by
this call you should ‘gnutls_global_deinit()’ when gnutls usage is
no longer needed.
This function increments a global counter, so that
‘gnutls_global_deinit()’ only releases resources when it has been
called as many times as ‘gnutls_global_init()’ . This is useful
when GnuTLS is used by more than one library in an application.
This function can be called many times, but will only do something
the first time. It is thread safe since GnuTLS 3.3.0.
A subsequent call of this function if the initial has failed will
return the same error code.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
gnutls_global_set_audit_log_function
------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_global_set_audit_log_function
(gnutls_audit_log_func LOG_FUNC)
LOG_FUNC: it is the audit log function
This is the function to set the audit logging function. This is a
function to report important issues, such as possible attacks in
the protocol. This is different from
‘gnutls_global_set_log_function()’ because it will report also
session-specific events. The session parameter will be null if
there is no corresponding TLS session.
‘gnutls_audit_log_func’ is of the form, void

gnutls_global_set_log_function
------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_global_set_log_function (gnutls_log_func
LOG_FUNC)
LOG_FUNC: it’s a log function
This is the function where you set the logging function gnutls is
going to use. This function only accepts a character array.
Normally you may not use this function since it is only used for
debugging purposes.
‘gnutls_log_func’ is of the form, void (*gnutls_log_func)( int
level, const char*);
gnutls_global_set_log_level
---------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_global_set_log_level (int LEVEL)
LEVEL: it’s an integer from 0 to 99.
This is the function that allows you to set the log level. The
level is an integer between 0 and 9. Higher values mean more
verbosity. The default value is 0. Larger values should only be
used with care, since they may reveal sensitive information.
Use a log level over 10 to enable all debugging options.
gnutls_global_set_mutex
-----------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_global_set_mutex (mutex_init_func INIT,
mutex_deinit_func DEINIT, mutex_lock_func LOCK,
mutex_unlock_func UNLOCK)
INIT: mutex initialization function
DEINIT: mutex deinitialization function
LOCK: mutex locking function
UNLOCK: mutex unlocking function
With this function you are allowed to override the default mutex
locks used in some parts of gnutls and dependent libraries. This
function should be used if you have complete control of your
program and libraries. Do not call this function from a library,
or preferably from any application unless really needed to. GnuTLS
will use the appropriate locks for the running system.
This function must be called prior to any other GnuTLS function;
otherwise the behavior is undefined.
*Deprecated:* This function is discouraged on GnuTLS 3.7.3 or
later.
*Since:* 2.12.0
gnutls_global_set_time_function
-------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_global_set_time_function (gnutls_time_func
TIME_FUNC)
TIME_FUNC: it’s the system time function, a ‘gnutls_time_func()’
callback.
This is the function where you can override the default system time
function. The application provided function should behave the same
as the standard function.
*Since:* 2.12.0
gnutls_gost_paramset_get_name
-----------------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_gost_paramset_get_name
(gnutls_gost_paramset_t PARAM)
PARAM: is a GOST 28147 param set
Convert a ‘gnutls_gost_paramset_t’ value to a string.
*Returns:* a string that contains the name of the specified GOST
param set, or ‘NULL’ .
*Since:* 3.6.3
gnutls_gost_paramset_get_oid
----------------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_gost_paramset_get_oid
(gnutls_gost_paramset_t PARAM)
PARAM: is a GOST 28147 param set
Convert a ‘gnutls_gost_paramset_t’ value to its object identifier.
*Returns:* a string that contains the object identifier of the
specified GOST param set, or ‘NULL’ .
*Since:* 3.6.3
gnutls_group_get
----------------
-- Function: gnutls_group_t gnutls_group_get (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Returns the currently used group for key exchange. Only valid when
using an elliptic curve or DH ciphersuite.
*Returns:* the currently used group, a ‘gnutls_group_t’ type.
*Since:* 3.6.0
gnutls_group_get_id
-------------------
-- Function: gnutls_group_t gnutls_group_get_id (const char * NAME)
NAME: is a group name
The names are compared in a case insensitive way.
*Returns:* return a ‘gnutls_group_t’ value corresponding to the
specified group, or ‘GNUTLS_GROUP_INVALID’ on error.
*Since:* 3.6.0
gnutls_group_get_name
---------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_group_get_name (gnutls_group_t GROUP)

Get the list of supported elliptic curves.
This function is not thread safe.
*Returns:* Return a (0)-terminated list of ‘gnutls_group_t’
integers indicating the available groups.
*Since:* 3.6.0
gnutls_handshake
----------------
-- Function: int gnutls_handshake (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function performs the handshake of the TLS/SSL protocol, and
initializes the TLS session parameters.
The non-fatal errors expected by this function are:
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ , ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ ,
‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ . When this function is called
for re-handshake under TLS 1.2 or earlier, the non-fatal error code
‘GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA’ may also be returned.
The former two interrupt the handshake procedure due to the
transport layer being interrupted, and the latter because of a
"warning" alert that was sent by the peer (it is always a good idea
to check any received alerts). On these non-fatal errors call this
function again, until it returns 0; cf.
‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ and ‘gnutls_error_is_fatal()’ . In
DTLS sessions the non-fatal error ‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ is also
possible, and indicates that the MTU should be adjusted.
When this function is called by a server after a rehandshake
request under TLS 1.2 or earlier the
‘GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA’ error code indicates that some data
were pending prior to peer initiating the handshake. Under TLS 1.3
this function when called after a successful handshake, is a no-op
and always succeeds in server side; in client side this function is
equivalent to ‘gnutls_session_key_update()’ with ‘GNUTLS_KU_PEER’
flag.
This function handles both full and abbreviated TLS handshakes
(resumption). For abbreviated handshakes, in client side, the
‘gnutls_session_set_data()’ should be called prior to this function
to set parameters from a previous session. In server side,
resumption is handled by either setting a DB back-end, or setting
up keys for session tickets.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on a successful handshake, otherwise
a negative error code.
gnutls_handshake_description_get_name
-------------------------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_handshake_description_get_name
(gnutls_handshake_description_t TYPE)
TYPE: is a handshake message description
Convert a ‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ value to a string.
*Returns:* a string that contains the name of the specified
handshake message or ‘NULL’ .
gnutls_handshake_get_last_in
----------------------------
-- Function: gnutls_handshake_description_t
gnutls_handshake_get_last_in (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function is only useful to check where the last performed
handshake failed. If the previous handshake succeed or was not
performed at all then no meaningful value will be returned.
Check ‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ in gnutls.h for the
available handshake descriptions.
*Returns:* the last handshake message type received, a
‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ .
gnutls_handshake_get_last_out
-----------------------------
-- Function: gnutls_handshake_description_t
gnutls_handshake_get_last_out (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function is only useful to check where the last performed
handshake failed. If the previous handshake succeed or was not
performed at all then no meaningful value will be returned.
Check ‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ in gnutls.h for the
available handshake descriptions.
*Returns:* the last handshake message type sent, a
‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ .
gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function
----------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, unsigned int HTYPE, int WHEN,
gnutls_handshake_hook_func FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type
HTYPE: the ‘gnutls_handshake_description_t’ of the message to hook
at
WHEN: ‘GNUTLS_HOOK_’ * depending on when the hook function should
be called
FUNC: is the function to be called
This function will set a callback to be called after or before the
specified handshake message has been received or generated. This
is a generalization of
‘gnutls_handshake_set_post_client_hello_function()’ .
To call the hook function prior to the message being generated or
processed use ‘GNUTLS_HOOK_PRE’ as ‘when’ parameter,
‘GNUTLS_HOOK_POST’ to call after, and ‘GNUTLS_HOOK_BOTH’ for both
cases.
This callback must return 0 on success or a gnutls error code to
terminate the handshake.
To hook at all handshake messages use an ‘htype’ of
‘GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_ANY’ .
*Warning:* You should not use this function to terminate the
handshake based on client input unless you know what you are doing.
Before the handshake is finished there is no way to know if there
is a man-in-the-middle attack being performed.
gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length
--------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_max_packet_length
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t MAX)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
MAX: is the maximum number.
This function will set the maximum size of all handshake messages.
Handshakes over this size are rejected with
‘GNUTLS_E_HANDSHAKE_TOO_LARGE’ error code. The default value is
128kb which is typically large enough. Set this to 0 if you do not
want to set an upper limit.
The reason for restricting the handshake message sizes are to limit
Denial of Service attacks.
Note that the maximum handshake size was increased to 128kb from
48kb in GnuTLS 3.5.5.
gnutls_handshake_set_post_client_hello_function
-----------------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_post_client_hello_function
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_handshake_simple_hook_func
FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FUNC: is the function to be called
This function will set a callback to be called after the client
hello has been received (callback valid in server side only). This
allows the server to adjust settings based on received extensions.
Those settings could be ciphersuites, requesting certificate, or
anything else except for version negotiation (this is done before
the hello message is parsed).
This callback must return 0 on success or a gnutls error code to
terminate the handshake.
Since GnuTLS 3.3.5 the callback is allowed to return
‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ to put the handshake on
hold. In that case ‘gnutls_handshake()’ will return
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ and can be resumed when needed.
*Warning:* You should not use this function to terminate the
handshake based on client input unless you know what you are doing.
Before the handshake is finished there is no way to know if there
is a man-in-the-middle attack being performed.
gnutls_handshake_set_private_extensions
---------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_private_extensions
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, int ALLOW)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
ALLOW: is an integer (0 or 1)
This function will enable or disable the use of private cipher
suites (the ones that start with 0xFF). By default or if ‘allow’ is
0 then these cipher suites will not be advertised nor used.
Currently GnuTLS does not include such cipher-suites or compression
algorithms.
Enabling the private ciphersuites when talking to other than gnutls
servers and clients may cause interoperability problems.
gnutls_handshake_set_random
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_handshake_set_random (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
const gnutls_datum_t * RANDOM)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
RANDOM: a random value of 32-bytes
This function will explicitly set the server or client hello random
value in the subsequent TLS handshake. The random value should be
a 32-byte value.
Note that this function should not normally be used as gnutls will
select automatically a random value for the handshake.
This function should not be used when resuming a session.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
Since 3.1.9
gnutls_handshake_set_read_function

----------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_handshake_set_timeout (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, unsigned int MS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
MS: is a timeout value in milliseconds
This function sets the timeout for the TLS handshake process to the
provided value. Use an ‘ms’ value of zero to disable timeout, or
‘GNUTLS_DEFAULT_HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT’ for a reasonable default value.
For the DTLS protocol, the more detailed
‘gnutls_dtls_set_timeouts()’ is provided.
This function requires to set a pull timeout callback. See
‘gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function()’ .
*Since:* 3.1.0
gnutls_handshake_write
----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_handshake_write (gnutls_session_t SESSION,

LEVEL: the current encryption level for reading a handshake message
DATA: the (const) handshake data to be processed
DATA_SIZE: the size of data
This function processes a handshake message in the encryption level
specified with ‘level’ . Prior to calling this function, a
handshake read callback must be set on ‘session’ . Use
‘gnutls_handshake_set_read_function()’ to do this.
*Since:* 3.7.0
gnutls_heartbeat_allowed
------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_heartbeat_allowed (gnutls_session_t

*Since:* 3.1.2
gnutls_heartbeat_enable
-----------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_heartbeat_enable (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int TYPE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
TYPE: one of the GNUTLS_HB_* flags
If this function is called with the
‘GNUTLS_HB_PEER_ALLOWED_TO_SEND’ ‘type’ , GnuTLS will allow
heartbeat messages to be received. Moreover it also request the
peer to accept heartbeat messages. This function must be called
prior to TLS handshake.
If the ‘type’ used is ‘GNUTLS_HB_LOCAL_ALLOWED_TO_SEND’ , then the
peer will be asked to accept heartbeat messages but not send ones.
The function ‘gnutls_heartbeat_allowed()’ can be used to test
Whether locally generated heartbeat messages can be accepted by the
peer.
*Since:* 3.1.2
gnutls_heartbeat_get_timeout
----------------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_heartbeat_get_timeout
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return the milliseconds remaining for a
retransmission of the previously sent ping message. This function
is useful when ping is used in non-blocking mode, to estimate when
to call ‘gnutls_heartbeat_ping()’ if no packets have been received.
*Returns:* the remaining time in milliseconds.
*Since:* 3.1.2
gnutls_heartbeat_ping
---------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_heartbeat_ping (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
size_t DATA_SIZE, unsigned int MAX_TRIES, unsigned int FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the ping payload.
MAX_TRIES: if flags is ‘GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT’ then this sets the
number of retransmissions. Use zero for indefinite (until
timeout).
FLAGS: if ‘GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT’ then wait for pong or timeout
instead of returning immediately.
This function sends a ping to the peer. If the ‘flags’ is set to
‘GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT’ then it waits for a reply from the peer.
Note that it is highly recommended to use this function with the
flag ‘GNUTLS_HEARTBEAT_WAIT’ , or you need to handle
retransmissions and timeouts manually.
The total TLS data transmitted as part of the ping message are
given by the following formula: MAX(16, ‘data_size’
)+‘gnutls_record_overhead_size()’ +3.

RETRANS_TIMEOUT: The time at which a retransmission will occur in
milliseconds
TOTAL_TIMEOUT: The time at which the connection will be aborted, in
milliseconds.
This function will override the timeouts for the DTLS heartbeat
protocol. The retransmission timeout is the time after which a
message from the peer is not received, the previous request will be
retransmitted. The total timeout is the time after which the
handshake will be aborted with ‘GNUTLS_E_TIMEDOUT’ .
*Since:* 3.1.2

ILEN: the length of the provided string
OUT: the result in an null-terminated allocated string
FLAGS: should be zero
This function will convert the provided UTF-8 domain name, to its
IDNA mapping in an allocated variable. Note that depending on the
flags the used gnutls library was compiled with, the output of this
function may vary (i.e., may be IDNA2008, or IDNA2003).
To force IDNA2008 specify the flag ‘GNUTLS_IDNA_FORCE_2008’ . In
the case GnuTLS is not compiled with the necessary dependencies,
‘GNUTLS_E_UNIMPLEMENTED_FEATURE’ will be returned to indicate that
gnutls is unable to perform the requested conversion.
Note also, that this function will return an empty string if an
empty string is provided as input.

be initialized before use, and must be deinitialized after used by
calling ‘gnutls_deinit()’ .
‘flags’ can be any combination of flags from ‘gnutls_init_flags_t’
.
Note that since version 3.1.2 this function enables some common TLS
extensions such as session tickets and OCSP certificate status
request in client side by default. To prevent that use the
‘GNUTLS_NO_EXTENSIONS’ flag.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.

SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
RESPONDER_ID: ignored, must be ‘NULL’
RESPONDER_ID_SIZE: ignored, must be zero
EXTENSIONS: ignored, must be ‘NULL’
This function is to be used by clients to request OCSP response
from the server, using the "status_request" TLS extension. Only
OCSP status type is supported.
Previous versions of GnuTLS supported setting ‘responder_id’ and
‘extensions’ fields, but due to the difficult semantics of the
parameter usage, and other issues, this support was removed since
3.6.0 and these parameters must be set to ‘NULL’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.1.3

SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
RESPONSE: a ‘gnutls_datum_t’ with DER encoded OCSP response
This function returns the OCSP status response received from the
TLS server. The ‘response’ should be treated as constant. If no
OCSP response is available then
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.1.3
gnutls_ocsp_status_request_get2
-------------------------------

SESSION, unsigned IDX, gnutls_datum_t * RESPONSE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
IDX: the index of peer’s certificate
RESPONSE: a ‘gnutls_datum_t’ with DER encoded OCSP response
This function returns the OCSP status response received from the
TLS server for the certificate index provided. The index
corresponds to certificates as returned by
gnutls_certificate_get_peers. When index is zero this function
operates identically to ‘gnutls_ocsp_status_request_get()’ .
The returned ‘response’ should be treated as constant. If no OCSP
response is available for the given index then
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.6.3

(gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int FLAGS)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
FLAGS: should be zero or ‘GNUTLS_OCSP_SR_IS_AVAIL’
When flags are zero this function returns non-zero if a valid OCSP
status response was included in the TLS handshake. That is, an
OCSP status response which is not too old, superseded or marks the
certificate as revoked. It returns zero otherwise.
When the flag ‘GNUTLS_OCSP_SR_IS_AVAIL’ is specified, the function
returns non-zero if an OCSP status response was included in the
handshake even if it was invalid. Otherwise, if no OCSP status
response was included, it returns zero. The
‘GNUTLS_OCSP_SR_IS_AVAIL’ flag was introduced in GnuTLS 3.4.0.
This is a helper function when needing to decide whether to perform
an explicit OCSP validity check on the peer’s certificate. Should
be called after any of gnutls_certificate_verify_peers*() are
called.
This function is always usable on client side, but on server side
only under TLS 1.3, which is the first version of TLS that allows
cliend-side OCSP responses.
*Returns:* Non-zero if the response was valid, or a zero if it
wasn’t sent, or sent and was invalid.

B64_DATA: contains the encoded data
RESULT: the location of decoded data
This function will decode the given encoded data. The decoded data
will be allocated, and stored into result. If the header given is
non null this function will search for "—–BEGIN header" and decode
only this part. Otherwise it will decode the first PEM packet
found.
You should use ‘gnutls_free()’ to free the returned data.
Note, that prior to GnuTLS 3.4.0 this function was available under

-- Function: int gnutls_prf (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t
LABEL_SIZE, const char * LABEL, int SERVER_RANDOM_FIRST,
size_t EXTRA_SIZE, const char * EXTRA, size_t OUTSIZE, char *
OUT)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
LABEL_SIZE: length of the ‘label’ variable.
LABEL: label used in PRF computation, typically a short string.

and the provided data, seeded with the client and server random
fields. For the key expansion specified in RFC5705 see
‘gnutls_prf_rfc5705()’ .
The ‘label’ variable usually contains a string denoting the purpose
for the generated data. The ‘server_random_first’ indicates
whether the client random field or the server random field should
be first in the seed. Non-zero indicates that the server random
field is first, 0 that the client random field is first.
The ‘extra’ variable can be used to add more data to the seed,
after the random variables. It can be used to make sure the
generated output is strongly connected to some additional data
(e.g., a string used in user authentication).
The output is placed in ‘out’ , which must be pre-allocated.
*Note:* This function produces identical output with
‘gnutls_prf_rfc5705()’ when ‘server_random_first’ is set to 0 and
‘extra’ is ‘NULL’ . Under TLS1.3 this function will only operate
when these conditions are true, or otherwise return
‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
gnutls_prf_early
----------------
-- Function: int gnutls_prf_early (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t

LABEL: label used in PRF computation, typically a short string.
CONTEXT_SIZE: length of the ‘extra’ variable.
CONTEXT: optional extra data to seed the PRF with.
OUTSIZE: size of pre-allocated output buffer to hold the output.
OUT: pre-allocated buffer to hold the generated data.
This function is similar to ‘gnutls_prf_rfc5705()’ , but only works
in TLS 1.3 or later to export early keying material.
Note that the keying material is only available after the
ClientHello message is processed and before the application traffic
keys are established. Therefore this function shall be called in a
handshake hook function for ‘GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_CLIENT_HELLO’ .
The ‘label’ variable usually contains a string denoting the purpose
for the generated data.
The ‘context’ variable can be used to add more data to the seed,
after the random variables. It can be used to make sure the
generated output is strongly connected to some additional data
(e.g., a string used in user authentication).
The output is placed in ‘out’ , which must be pre-allocated.
Note that, to provide the RFC5705 context, the ‘context’ variable
must be non-null.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
*Since:* 3.6.8
gnutls_prf_hash_get
-------------------
-- Function: gnutls_digest_algorithm_t gnutls_prf_hash_get (const
gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.

algorithm is used for both the key derivation function and
handshake message authentication code. In TLS 1.2, it matches the
hash algorithm used for PRF.

‘gnutls_digest_algorithm_t’ value.
*Since:* 3.6.13
gnutls_prf_raw
--------------
-- Function: int gnutls_prf_raw (gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t

SEED, size_t OUTSIZE, char * OUT)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
LABEL_SIZE: length of the ‘label’ variable.
LABEL: label used in PRF computation, typically a short string.
SEED_SIZE: length of the ‘seed’ variable.
SEED: optional extra data to seed the PRF with.
OUTSIZE: size of pre-allocated output buffer to hold the output.
OUT: pre-allocated buffer to hold the generated data.
Apply the TLS Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF) on the master secret and
the provided data.
The ‘label’ variable usually contains a string denoting the purpose
for the generated data. The ‘seed’ usually contains data such as
the client and server random, perhaps together with some additional
data that is added to guarantee uniqueness of the output for a
particular purpose.
Because the output is not guaranteed to be unique for a particular
session unless ‘seed’ includes the client random and server random
fields (the PRF would output the same data on another connection
resumed from the first one), it is not recommended to use this
function directly. The ‘gnutls_prf()’ function seeds the PRF with
the client and server random fields directly, and is recommended if
you want to generate pseudo random data unique for each session.
*Note:* This function will only operate under TLS versions prior to
1.3. In TLS1.3 the use of PRF is replaced with HKDF and the
generic exporters like ‘gnutls_prf_rfc5705()’ should be used
instead. Under TLS1.3 this function returns
‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.

LABEL_SIZE: length of the ‘label’ variable.
LABEL: label used in PRF computation, typically a short string.
CONTEXT_SIZE: length of the ‘extra’ variable.
CONTEXT: optional extra data to seed the PRF with.
OUTSIZE: size of pre-allocated output buffer to hold the output.
OUT: pre-allocated buffer to hold the generated data.
Exports keying material from TLS/DTLS session to an application, as
specified in RFC5705.
In the TLS versions prior to 1.3, it applies the TLS
Pseudo-Random-Function (PRF) on the master secret and the provided
data, seeded with the client and server random fields.
In TLS 1.3, it applies HKDF on the exporter master secret derived
from the master secret.
The ‘label’ variable usually contains a string denoting the purpose
for the generated data.
The ‘context’ variable can be used to add more data to the seed,
after the random variables. It can be used to make sure the
generated output is strongly connected to some additional data
(e.g., a string used in user authentication).
The output is placed in ‘out’ , which must be pre-allocated.
Note that, to provide the RFC5705 context, the ‘context’ variable
must be non-null.

Provides the internal ciphersuite index to be used with
‘gnutls_cipher_suite_info()’ . The index ‘idx’ provided is an
index kept at the priorities structure. It might be that a valid
priorities index does not correspond to a ciphersuite and in that
case ‘GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_CIPHER_SUITE’ will be returned. Once the
last available index is crossed then
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ will be returned.

‘GNUTLS_PRIORITY_INIT_DEF_APPEND’ flag instead. We suggest to use
centralized crypto settings handled by the GnuTLS library, and
applications modifying the default settings to their needs.
This function is identical to ‘gnutls_priority_init2()’ with zero
flags.
A ‘NULL’ ‘priorities’ string indicates the default priorities to be
used (this is available since GnuTLS 3.3.0).
*Returns:* On syntax error ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ is returned,
‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
gnutls_priority_init2
---------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_priority_init2 (gnutls_priority_t *
PRIORITY_CACHE, const char * PRIORITIES, const char **
ERR_POS, unsigned FLAGS)
PRIORITY_CACHE: is a ‘gnutls_priority_t’ type.
PRIORITIES: is a string describing priorities (may be ‘NULL’ )
ERR_POS: In case of an error this will have the position in the
string the error occurred
FLAGS: zero or ‘GNUTLS_PRIORITY_INIT_DEF_APPEND’
Sets priorities for the ciphers, key exchange methods, and macs.
The ‘priority_cache’ should be deinitialized using
‘gnutls_priority_deinit()’ .
The ‘priorities’ option allows you to specify a colon separated
list of the cipher priorities to enable. Some keywords are defined
to provide quick access to common preferences.
When ‘flags’ is set to ‘GNUTLS_PRIORITY_INIT_DEF_APPEND’ then the
‘priorities’ specified will be appended to the default options.
Unless there is a special need, use the "NORMAL" keyword to apply a
reasonable security level, or "NORMAL:%COMPAT" for compatibility.
"PERFORMANCE" means all the "secure" ciphersuites are enabled,
limited to 128 bit ciphers and sorted by terms of speed
performance.
"LEGACY" the NORMAL settings for GnuTLS 3.2.x or earlier. There is
no verification profile set, and the allowed DH primes are
considered weak today.
"NORMAL" means all "secure" ciphersuites. The 256-bit ciphers are
included as a fallback only. The ciphers are sorted by security
margin.
"PFS" means all "secure" ciphersuites that support perfect forward
secrecy. The 256-bit ciphers are included as a fallback only. The
ciphers are sorted by security margin.
"SECURE128" means all "secure" ciphersuites of security level
128-bit or more.
"SECURE192" means all "secure" ciphersuites of security level
192-bit or more.
"SUITEB128" means all the NSA SuiteB ciphersuites with security
level of 128.
"SUITEB192" means all the NSA SuiteB ciphersuites with security
level of 192.
"NONE" means nothing is enabled. This disables everything,
including protocols.
"@KEYWORD1,KEYWORD2,..." The system administrator imposed
settings. The provided keyword(s) will be expanded from a
configuration-time provided file - default is:
/usr/local/etc/gnutls/config. Any attributes that follow it, will
be appended to the expanded string. If multiple keywords are
provided, separated by commas, then the first keyword that exists
in the configuration file will be used. At least one of the
keywords must exist, or this function will return an error.
Typical usage would be to specify an application specified keyword
first, followed by "SYSTEM" as a default fallback. e.g., "
‘LIBVIRT’ ,SYSTEM:!-VERS-SSL3.0" will first try to find a config
file entry matching "LIBVIRT", but if that does not exist will use
the entry for "SYSTEM". If "SYSTEM" does not exist either, an error
will be returned. In all cases, the SSL3.0 protocol will be
disabled. The system priority file entries should be formatted as
"KEYWORD=VALUE", e.g., "SYSTEM=NORMAL:+ARCFOUR-128".
Special keywords are "!", "-" and "+". "!" or "-" appended with
an algorithm will remove this algorithm. "+" appended with an
algorithm will add this algorithm.
Check the GnuTLS manual section "Priority strings" for detailed
information.
*Examples:*
"NONE:+VERS-TLS-ALL:+MAC-ALL:+RSA:+AES-128-CBC:+SIGN-ALL:+COMP-NULL"
"NORMAL:+ARCFOUR-128" means normal ciphers plus ARCFOUR-128.
"SECURE128:-VERS-SSL3.0" means that only secure ciphers are and
enabled, SSL3.0 is disabled.
"NONE:+VERS-TLS-ALL:+AES-128-CBC:+RSA:+SHA1:+COMP-NULL:+SIGN-RSA-SHA1",
"NONE:+VERS-TLS-ALL:+AES-128-CBC:+ECDHE-RSA:+SHA1:+COMP-NULL:+SIGN-RSA-SHA1:+CURVE-SECP256R1",
"SECURE256:+SECURE128",
Note that "NORMAL:%COMPAT" is the most compatible mode.
A ‘NULL’ ‘priorities’ string indicates the default priorities to be
used (this is available since GnuTLS 3.3.0).

used to directly set string priorities to a TLS session. For
documentation check the ‘gnutls_priority_init()’ .
To use a reasonable default, consider using
‘gnutls_set_default_priority()’ , or
‘gnutls_set_default_priority_append()’ instead of this function.

FLAGS: one of ‘GNUTLS_PRIORITY_LIST_INIT_KEYWORDS’ ,
‘GNUTLS_PRIORITY_LIST_SPECIAL’
Can be used to iterate all available priority strings. Due to
internal implementation details, there are cases where this
function can return the empty string. In that case that string
should be ignored. When no strings are available it returns ‘NULL’
.

VERSION: is a (gnutls) version number
ENABLED: whether to enable the protocol
Control the previous system-wide setting that marked ‘version’ as
enabled or disabled. Calling this fuction is allowed only if
allowlisting mode is set in the configuration file, and only if the
system-wide TLS priority string has not been initialized yet. The
intended usage is to provide applications with a way to expressly
deviate from the distribution or site defaults inherited from the
configuration file. The modification is composable with further
modifications performed through the priority string mechanism.

null.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_range_split
------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_range_split (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const
gnutls_range_st * ORIG, gnutls_range_st * NEXT,
gnutls_range_st * REMAINDER)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type
ORIG: is the original range provided by the user
NEXT: is the returned range that can be conveyed in a TLS record
REMAINDER: is the returned remaining range
This function should be used when it is required to hide the length
of very long data that cannot be directly provided to
‘gnutls_record_send_range()’ . In that case this function should
be called with the desired length hiding range in ‘orig’ . The
returned ‘next’ value should then be used in the next call to
‘gnutls_record_send_range()’ with the partial data. That process
should be repeated until ‘remainder’ is (0,0).
*Returns:* 0 in case splitting succeeds, non zero in case of error.
Note that ‘orig’ is not changed, while the values of ‘next’ and
‘remainder’ are modified to store the resulting values.
gnutls_reauth
-------------
-- Function: int gnutls_reauth (gnutls_session_t SESSION, unsigned int
FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FLAGS: must be zero
This function performs the post-handshake authentication for TLS
1.3. The post-handshake authentication is initiated by the server
by calling this function. Clients respond when
‘GNUTLS_E_REAUTH_REQUEST’ has been seen while receiving data.
The non-fatal errors expected by this function are:
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ , ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ , as well as
‘GNUTLS_E_GOT_APPLICATION_DATA’ when called on server side.
The former two interrupt the authentication procedure due to the
transport layer being interrupted, and the latter because there
were pending data prior to peer initiating the re-authentication.
The server should read/process that data as unauthenticated and
retry calling ‘gnutls_reauth()’ .
When this function is called under TLS1.2 or earlier or the peer
didn’t advertise post-handshake auth, it always fails with
‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ . The verification of the received
peers certificate is delegated to the session or credentials
verification callbacks. A server can check whether post handshake
authentication is supported by the client by checking the session
flags with ‘gnutls_session_get_flags()’ .
Prior to calling this function in server side, the function
‘gnutls_certificate_server_set_request()’ must be called setting
expectations for the received certificate (request or require). If
none are set this function will return with
‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
Note that post handshake authentication is available irrespective
of the initial negotiation type (PSK or certificate). In all cases
however, certificate credentials must be set to the session prior
to calling this function.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on a successful authentication,
otherwise a negative error code.
gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding
-----------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
If the session supports length-hiding padding, you can invoke
‘gnutls_record_send_range()’ to send a message whose length is
hidden in the given range. If the session does not support length
hiding padding, you can use the standard ‘gnutls_record_send()’
function, or ‘gnutls_record_send_range()’ making sure that the
range is the same as the length of the message you are trying to
send.
*Returns:* true (1) if the current session supports length-hiding
padding, false (0) if the current session does not.
gnutls_record_check_corked
--------------------------
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_check_corked (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function checks if there pending corked data in the gnutls
buffers –see ‘gnutls_record_cork()’ .
*Returns:* Returns the size of the corked data or zero.
*Since:* 3.2.8
gnutls_record_check_pending
---------------------------
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_check_pending (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function checks if there are unread data in the gnutls
buffers. If the return value is non-zero the next call to
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ is guaranteed not to block.
*Returns:* Returns the size of the data or zero.
gnutls_record_cork
------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_record_cork (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
If called, ‘gnutls_record_send()’ will no longer send any records.
Any sent records will be cached until ‘gnutls_record_uncork()’ is
called.
This function is safe to use with DTLS after GnuTLS 3.3.0.
*Since:* 3.1.9
gnutls_record_disable_padding
-----------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_record_disable_padding (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Used to disabled padding in TLS 1.0 and above. Normally you do not
need to use this function, but there are buggy clients that
complain if a server pads the encrypted data. This of course will
disable protection against statistical attacks on the data.
This function is defunct since 3.1.7. Random padding is disabled
by default unless requested using ‘gnutls_record_send_range()’ .
gnutls_record_discard_queued
----------------------------
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_discard_queued (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function discards all queued to be sent packets in a DTLS
session. These are the packets queued after an interrupted
‘gnutls_record_send()’ .
This function can only be used with transports where ‘send()’ is an
all-or-nothing operation (e.g., UDP). When partial writes are
allowed this function will cause session errors.
*Returns:* The number of bytes discarded.
*Since:* 3.4.0
gnutls_record_get_direction
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_record_get_direction (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function is useful to determine whether a GnuTLS function was
interrupted while sending or receiving, so that ‘select()’ or
‘poll()’ may be called appropriately.
It provides information about the internals of the record protocol
and is only useful if a prior gnutls function call, e.g.
‘gnutls_handshake()’ , was interrupted and returned
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ . After such an
interrupt applications may call ‘select()’ or ‘poll()’ before
restoring the interrupted GnuTLS function.
This function’s output is unreliable if you are using the same
‘session’ in different threads for sending and receiving.
*Returns:* 0 if interrupted while trying to read data, or 1 while
trying to write data.
gnutls_record_get_max_early_data_size
-------------------------------------
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_get_max_early_data_size
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function returns the maximum early data size in this
connection. This property can only be set to servers. The client
may be provided with the maximum allowed size through the
"early_data" extension of the NewSessionTicket handshake message.
*Returns:* The maximum early data size in this connection.
*Since:* 3.6.5
gnutls_record_get_max_size
--------------------------
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_get_max_size (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Get the record size. The maximum record size is negotiated by the
client after the first handshake message.
*Returns:* The maximum record packet size in this connection.
gnutls_record_get_state
-----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_record_get_state (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned READ, gnutls_datum_t * MAC_KEY, gnutls_datum_t * IV,
gnutls_datum_t * CIPHER_KEY, unsigned char [8] SEQ_NUMBER)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type
READ: if non-zero the read parameters are returned, otherwise the
write
MAC_KEY: the key used for MAC (if a MAC is used)
IV: the initialization vector or nonce used
CIPHER_KEY: the cipher key
SEQ_NUMBER: A 64-bit sequence number
This function will return the parameters of the current record
state. These are only useful to be provided to an external
off-loading device or subsystem. The returned values should be
considered constant and valid for the lifetime of the session.
In that case, to sync the state back you must call
‘gnutls_record_set_state()’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
Since 3.4.0
gnutls_record_overhead_size
---------------------------
-- Function: size_t gnutls_record_overhead_size (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is ‘gnutls_session_t’
This function will return the size in bytes of the overhead due to
TLS (or DTLS) per record. On certain occasions (e.g., CBC ciphers)
the returned value is the maximum possible overhead.
*Since:* 3.2.2
gnutls_record_recv
------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_recv (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void
* DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: the buffer that the data will be read into
DATA_SIZE: the number of requested bytes
This function has the similar semantics with ‘recv()’ . The only
difference is that it accepts a GnuTLS session, and uses different
error codes. In the special case that the peer requests a
renegotiation, the caller will receive an error code of
‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ . In case of a client, this message may be
simply ignored, replied with an alert ‘GNUTLS_A_NO_RENEGOTIATION’ ,
or replied with a new handshake, depending on the client’s will. A
server receiving this error code can only initiate a new handshake
or terminate the session.
If ‘EINTR’ is returned by the internal pull function (the default
is ‘recv()’ ) then ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ will be returned. If
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ is returned, you must
call this function again to get the data. See also
‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes received and zero on EOF (for stream
connections). A negative error code is returned in case of an
error. The number of bytes received might be less than the
requested ‘data_size’ .
gnutls_record_recv_early_data
-----------------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_recv_early_data (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: the buffer that the data will be read into
DATA_SIZE: the number of requested bytes
This function can be used by a server to retrieve data sent early
in the handshake processes when resuming a session. This is used
to implement a zero-roundtrip (0-RTT) mode. It has the same
semantics as ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ .
This function can be called either in a handshake hook, or after
the handshake is complete.
*Returns:* The number of bytes received and zero when early data
reading is complete. A negative error code is returned in case of
an error. If no early data is received during the handshake, this
function returns ‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ . The
number of bytes received might be less than the requested
‘data_size’ .
*Since:* 3.6.5
gnutls_record_recv_packet
-------------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_recv_packet (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_packet_t * PACKET)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PACKET: the structure that will hold the packet data
This is a lower-level function than ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ and
allows to directly receive the whole decrypted packet. That avoids
a memory copy, and is intended to be used by applications seeking
high performance.
The received packet is accessed using ‘gnutls_packet_get()’ and
must be deinitialized using ‘gnutls_packet_deinit()’ . The
returned packet will be ‘NULL’ if the return value is zero (EOF).
*Returns:* The number of bytes received and zero on EOF (for stream
connections). A negative error code is returned in case of an
error.
*Since:* 3.3.5
gnutls_record_recv_seq
----------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_recv_seq (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE, unsigned char * SEQ)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: the buffer that the data will be read into
DATA_SIZE: the number of requested bytes
SEQ: is the packet’s 64-bit sequence number. Should have space for
8 bytes.
This function is the same as ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ , except that
it returns in addition to data, the sequence number of the data.
This is useful in DTLS where record packets might be received
out-of-order. The returned 8-byte sequence number is an integer in
big-endian format and should be treated as a unique message
identification.
*Returns:* The number of bytes received and zero on EOF. A negative
error code is returned in case of an error. The number of bytes
received might be less than ‘data_size’ .
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_record_send
------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: contains the data to send
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the data
This function has the similar semantics with ‘send()’ . The only
difference is that it accepts a GnuTLS session, and uses different
error codes. Note that if the send buffer is full, ‘send()’ will
block this function. See the ‘send()’ documentation for more
information.
You can replace the default push function which is ‘send()’ , by
using ‘gnutls_transport_set_push_function()’ .
If the EINTR is returned by the internal push function then
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ will be returned. If ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’
or ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ is returned, you must call this function again
with the exact same parameters, or provide a ‘NULL’ pointer for
‘data’ and 0 for ‘data_size’ , in order to write the same data as
before. If you wish to discard the previous data instead of
retrying, you must call ‘gnutls_record_discard_queued()’ before
calling this function with different parameters. Note that the
latter works only on special transports (e.g., UDP). cf.
‘gnutls_record_get_direction()’ .
Note that in DTLS this function will return the
‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ error code if the send data exceed the data
MTU value - as returned by ‘gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu()’ . The
errno value EMSGSIZE also maps to ‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ . Note
that since 3.2.13 this function can be called under cork in DTLS
mode, and will refuse to send data over the MTU size by returning
‘GNUTLS_E_LARGE_PACKET’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code. The
number of bytes sent might be less than ‘data_size’ . The maximum
number of bytes this function can send in a single call depends on
the negotiated maximum record size.
gnutls_record_send2
-------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE, size_t PAD, unsigned
FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: contains the data to send
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the data
PAD: padding to be added to the record
FLAGS: must be zero
This function is identical to ‘gnutls_record_send()’ except that it
takes an extra argument to specify padding to be added the record.
To determine the maximum size of padding, use
‘gnutls_record_get_max_size()’ and ‘gnutls_record_overhead_size()’
.
Note that in order for GnuTLS to provide constant time processing
of padding and data in TLS1.3, the flag ‘GNUTLS_SAFE_PADDING_CHECK’
must be used in ‘gnutls_init()’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code. The
number of bytes sent might be less than ‘data_size’ . The maximum
number of bytes this function can send in a single call depends on
the negotiated maximum record size.
*Since:* 3.6.3
gnutls_record_send_early_data
-----------------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send_early_data (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: contains the data to send
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the data
This function can be used by a client to send data early in the
handshake processes when resuming a session. This is used to
implement a zero-roundtrip (0-RTT) mode. It has the same semantics
as ‘gnutls_record_send()’ .
There may be a limit to the amount of data sent as early data. Use
‘gnutls_record_get_max_early_data_size()’ to check the limit. If
the limit exceeds, this function returns
‘GNUTLS_E_RECORD_LIMIT_REACHED’ .
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code. The
number of bytes sent might be less than ‘data_size’ . The maximum
number of bytes this function can send in a single call depends on
the negotiated maximum record size.
*Since:* 3.6.5
gnutls_record_send_file
-----------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send_file (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
int FD, off_t * OFFSET, size_t COUNT)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FD: file descriptor from which to read data.
OFFSET: Is relative to file offset, denotes the starting location
for reading. after function returns, it point to position
following last read byte.
COUNT: is the length of the data in bytes to be read from file and
send.
This function sends data from ‘fd’ . If KTLS (kernel TLS) is
enabled, it will use the ‘sendfile()’ system call to avoid overhead
of copying data between user space and the kernel. Otherwise, this
functionality is merely emulated by calling ‘read()’ and
‘gnutls_record_send()’ . If this implementation is suboptimal,
check whether KTLS is enabled using
‘gnutls_transport_is_ktls_enabled()’ .
If ‘offset’ is NULL then file offset is incremented by number of
bytes send, otherwise file offset remains unchanged.
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent, or a negative error code.
gnutls_record_send_range
------------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_send_range (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, const void * DATA, size_t DATA_SIZE, const
gnutls_range_st * RANGE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: contains the data to send.
DATA_SIZE: is the length of the data.
RANGE: is the range of lengths in which the real data length must
be hidden.
This function operates like ‘gnutls_record_send()’ but, while
‘gnutls_record_send()’ adds minimal padding to each TLS record,
this function uses the TLS extra-padding feature to conceal the
real data size within the range of lengths provided. Some TLS
sessions do not support extra padding (e.g. stream ciphers in
standard TLS or SSL3 sessions). To know whether the current
session supports extra padding, and hence length hiding, use the
‘gnutls_record_can_use_length_hiding()’ function.
*Note:* This function currently is limited to blocking sockets.
*Returns:* The number of bytes sent (that is data_size in a
successful invocation), or a negative error code.
gnutls_record_set_max_early_data_size
-------------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_record_set_max_early_data_size
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, size_t SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SIZE: is the new size
This function sets the maximum early data size in this connection.
This property can only be set to servers. The client may be
provided with the maximum allowed size through the "early_data"
extension of the NewSessionTicket handshake message.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.6.4
gnutls_record_set_max_recv_size
-------------------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_set_max_recv_size (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, size_t SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SIZE: is the new size
This function sets the maximum amount of plaintext received in a
record in this connection.
The limit is also negotiated through a TLS extension called ’record
size limit’. Note that while the ’record size limit’ extension is
preferred, not all TLS implementations use or even understand the
extension.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.6.8
gnutls_record_set_max_size
--------------------------
-- Function: ssize_t gnutls_record_set_max_size (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, size_t SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SIZE: is the new size
This function sets the maximum amount of plaintext sent and
received in a record in this connection.
Prior to 3.6.4, this function was implemented using a TLS extension
called ’max fragment length’, which limits the acceptable values to
512(=2^9), 1024(=2^10), 2048(=2^11) and 4096(=2^12).
Since 3.6.4, the limit is also negotiated through a new TLS
extension called ’record size limit’, which doesn’t have the
limitation, as long as the value ranges between 512 and 16384.
Note that while the ’record size limit’ extension is preferred, not
all TLS implementations use or even understand the extension.
*Deprecated:* if the client can assume that the ’record size limit’
extension is supported by the server, we recommend using
‘gnutls_record_set_max_recv_size()’ instead.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
gnutls_record_set_state
-----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_record_set_state (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned READ, const unsigned char [8] SEQ_NUMBER)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type
READ: if non-zero the read parameters are returned, otherwise the
write
SEQ_NUMBER: A 64-bit sequence number
This function will set the sequence number in the current record
state. This function is useful if sending and receiving are
offloaded from gnutls. That is, if ‘gnutls_record_get_state()’ was
used.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
Since 3.4.0
gnutls_record_set_timeout
-------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_record_set_timeout (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int MS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
MS: is a timeout value in milliseconds
This function sets the receive timeout for the record layer to the
provided value. Use an ‘ms’ value of zero to disable timeout (the
default), or ‘GNUTLS_INDEFINITE_TIMEOUT’ , to set an indefinite
timeout.
This function requires to set a pull timeout callback. See
‘gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function()’ .
*Since:* 3.1.7
gnutls_record_uncork
--------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_record_uncork (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FLAGS: Could be zero or ‘GNUTLS_RECORD_WAIT’
This resets the effect of ‘gnutls_record_cork()’ , and flushes any
pending data. If the ‘GNUTLS_RECORD_WAIT’ flag is specified then
this function will block until the data is sent or a fatal error
occurs (i.e., the function will retry on ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ and
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ ).
If the flag ‘GNUTLS_RECORD_WAIT’ is not specified and the function
is interrupted then the ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’
errors will be returned. To obtain the data left in the corked
buffer use ‘gnutls_record_check_corked()’ .
*Returns:* On success the number of transmitted data is returned,
or otherwise a negative error code.
*Since:* 3.1.9
gnutls_rehandshake
------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_rehandshake (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function can only be called in server side, and instructs a
TLS 1.2 or earlier client to renegotiate parameters (perform a
handshake), by sending a hello request message.
If this function succeeds, the calling application should call
‘gnutls_record_recv()’ until ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ is returned to
clear any pending data. If the ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ error code
is not seen, then the handshake request was not followed by the
peer (the TLS protocol does not require the client to do, and such
compliance should be handled by the application protocol).
Once the ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ error code is seen, the calling
application should proceed to calling ‘gnutls_handshake()’ to
negotiate the new parameters.
If the client does not wish to renegotiate parameters he may reply
with an alert message, and in that case the return code seen by
subsequent ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ will be
‘GNUTLS_E_WARNING_ALERT_RECEIVED’ with the specific alert being
‘GNUTLS_A_NO_RENEGOTIATION’ . A client may also choose to ignore
this request.
Under TLS 1.3 this function is equivalent to
‘gnutls_session_key_update()’ with the ‘GNUTLS_KU_PEER’ flag. In
that case subsequent calls to ‘gnutls_record_recv()’ will not
return ‘GNUTLS_E_REHANDSHAKE’ , and calls to ‘gnutls_handshake()’
in server side are a no-op.
This function always fails with ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ when
called in client side.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code.
gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status
--------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Can be used to check whether safe renegotiation is being used in
the current session.
*Returns:* 0 when safe renegotiation is not used and non (0) when
safe renegotiation is used.
*Since:* 2.10.0
gnutls_sec_param_get_name
-------------------------
-- Function: const char * gnutls_sec_param_get_name (gnutls_sec_param_t
PARAM)
PARAM: is a security parameter
Convert a ‘gnutls_sec_param_t’ value to a string.
*Returns:* a pointer to a string that contains the name of the
specified security level, or ‘NULL’ .
*Since:* 2.12.0
gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits
---------------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits
(gnutls_pk_algorithm_t ALGO, gnutls_sec_param_t PARAM)
ALGO: is a public key algorithm
PARAM: is a security parameter
When generating private and public key pairs a difficult question
is which size of "bits" the modulus will be in RSA and the group
size in DSA. The easy answer is 1024, which is also wrong. This
function will convert a human understandable security parameter to
an appropriate size for the specific algorithm.
*Returns:* The number of bits, or (0).
*Since:* 2.12.0
gnutls_sec_param_to_symmetric_bits
----------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_sec_param_to_symmetric_bits
(gnutls_sec_param_t PARAM)
PARAM: is a security parameter
This function will return the number of bits that correspond to
symmetric cipher strength for the given security parameter.
*Returns:* The number of bits, or (0).
*Since:* 3.3.0
gnutls_server_name_get
----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_server_name_get (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void
* DATA, size_t * DATA_LENGTH, unsigned int * TYPE, unsigned
int INDX)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: will hold the data
DATA_LENGTH: will hold the data length. Must hold the maximum size
of data.
TYPE: will hold the server name indicator type
INDX: is the index of the server_name
This function will allow you to get the name indication (if any), a
client has sent. The name indication may be any of the enumeration
gnutls_server_name_type_t.
If ‘type’ is GNUTLS_NAME_DNS, then this function is to be used by
servers that support virtual hosting, and the data will be a null
terminated IDNA ACE string (prior to GnuTLS 3.4.0 it was a UTF-8
string).
If ‘data’ has not enough size to hold the server name
GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER is returned, and ‘data_length’ will
hold the required size.
‘indx’ is used to retrieve more than one server names (if sent by
the client). The first server name has an index of 0, the second 1
and so on. If no name with the given index exists
GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE is returned.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, on UTF-8
decoding error ‘GNUTLS_E_IDNA_ERROR’ is returned, otherwise a
negative error code is returned.
gnutls_server_name_set
----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_server_name_set (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_server_name_type_t TYPE, const void * NAME, size_t
NAME_LENGTH)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
TYPE: specifies the indicator type
NAME: is a string that contains the server name.
NAME_LENGTH: holds the length of name excluding the terminating
null byte
This function is to be used by clients that want to inform (via a
TLS extension mechanism) the server of the name they connected to.
This should be used by clients that connect to servers that do
virtual hosting.
The value of ‘name’ depends on the ‘type’ type. In case of
‘GNUTLS_NAME_DNS’ , a UTF-8 null-terminated domain name string,
without the trailing dot, is expected.
IPv4 or IPv6 addresses are not permitted to be set by this
function. If the function is called with a name of ‘name_length’
zero it will clear all server names set.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned.
gnutls_session_channel_binding
------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_channel_binding (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_channel_binding_t CBTYPE, gnutls_datum_t * CB)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
CBTYPE: an ‘gnutls_channel_binding_t’ enumeration type
CB: output buffer array with data
Extract given channel binding data of the ‘cbtype’ (e.g.,
‘GNUTLS_CB_TLS_UNIQUE’ ) type.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success,
‘GNUTLS_E_UNIMPLEMENTED_FEATURE’ if the ‘cbtype’ is unsupported,
‘GNUTLS_E_CHANNEL_BINDING_NOT_AVAILABLE’ if the data is not
currently available, or an error code.
*Since:* 2.12.0
gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode
----------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function can be used to disable certain (security) features in
TLS in order to maintain maximum compatibility with buggy clients.
Because several trade-offs with security are enabled, if required
they will be reported through the audit subsystem.
Normally only servers that require maximum compatibility with
everything out there, need to call this function.
Note that this function must be called after any call to
gnutls_priority functions.
*Since:* 2.1.4
gnutls_session_etm_status
-------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_session_etm_status (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Get the status of the encrypt-then-mac extension negotiation. This
is in accordance to rfc7366
*Returns:* Non-zero if the negotiation was successful or zero
otherwise.
gnutls_session_ext_master_secret_status
---------------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_session_ext_master_secret_status
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Get the status of the extended master secret extension negotiation.
This is in accordance to RFC7627. That information is also
available to the more generic ‘gnutls_session_get_flags()’ .
*Returns:* Non-zero if the negotiation was successful or zero
otherwise.
gnutls_session_ext_register
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_ext_register (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
const char * NAME, int ID, gnutls_ext_parse_type_t
PARSE_POINT, gnutls_ext_recv_func RECV_FUNC,
gnutls_ext_send_func SEND_FUNC, gnutls_ext_deinit_data_func
DEINIT_FUNC, gnutls_ext_pack_func PACK_FUNC,
gnutls_ext_unpack_func UNPACK_FUNC, unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: the session for which this extension will be set
NAME: the name of the extension to register
ID: the numeric id of the extension
PARSE_POINT: the parse type of the extension (see
gnutls_ext_parse_type_t)
RECV_FUNC: a function to receive the data
SEND_FUNC: a function to send the data
DEINIT_FUNC: a function deinitialize any private data
PACK_FUNC: a function which serializes the extension’s private data
(used on session packing for resumption)
UNPACK_FUNC: a function which will deserialize the extension’s
private data
FLAGS: must be zero or flags from ‘gnutls_ext_flags_t’
This function will register a new extension type. The extension
will be only usable within the registered session. If the
extension type is already registered then
‘GNUTLS_E_ALREADY_REGISTERED’ will be returned, unless the flag
‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_OVERRIDE_INTERNAL’ is specified. The latter flag
when specified can be used to override certain extensions
introduced after 3.6.0. It is expected to be used by applications
which handle custom extensions that are not currently supported in
GnuTLS, but direct support for them may be added in the future.
Each registered extension can store temporary data into the
gnutls_session_t structure using ‘gnutls_ext_set_data()’ , and they
can be retrieved using ‘gnutls_ext_get_data()’ .
The validity of the extension registered can be given by the
appropriate flags of ‘gnutls_ext_flags_t’ . If no validity is
given, then the registered extension will be valid for client and
TLS1.2 server hello (or encrypted extensions for TLS1.3).
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code.
*Since:* 3.5.5
gnutls_session_force_valid
--------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_force_valid (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Clears the invalid flag in a session. That means that sessions
were corrupt or invalid data were received can be re-used. Use
only when debugging or experimenting with the TLS protocol. Should
not be used in typical applications.
gnutls_session_get_data
-----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_get_data (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
void * SESSION_DATA, size_t * SESSION_DATA_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SESSION_DATA: is a pointer to space to hold the session.
SESSION_DATA_SIZE: is the session_data’s size, or it will be set by
the function.
Returns all session parameters needed to be stored to support
resumption, in a pre-allocated buffer.
See ‘gnutls_session_get_data2()’ for more information.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_session_get_data2
------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_get_data2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_datum_t * DATA)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
DATA: is a pointer to a datum that will hold the session.
Returns necessary parameters to support resumption. The client
should call this function and store the returned session data. A
session can be resumed later by calling ‘gnutls_session_set_data()’
with the returned data. Note that under TLS 1.3, it is recommended
for clients to use session parameters only once, to prevent
passive-observers from correlating the different connections.
The returned ‘data’ are allocated and must be released using
‘gnutls_free()’ .
This function will fail if called prior to handshake completion.
In case of false start TLS, the handshake completes only after data
have been successfully received from the peer.
Under TLS1.3 session resumption is possible only after a session
ticket is received by the client. To ensure that such a ticket has
been received use ‘gnutls_session_get_flags()’ and check for flag
‘GNUTLS_SFLAGS_SESSION_TICKET’ ; if this flag is not set, this
function will wait for a new ticket within an estimated roundtrip,
and if not received will return dummy data which cannot lead to
resumption.
To get notified when new tickets are received by the server use
‘gnutls_handshake_set_hook_function()’ to wait for
‘GNUTLS_HANDSHAKE_NEW_SESSION_TICKET’ messages. Each call of
‘gnutls_session_get_data2()’ after a ticket is received, will
return session resumption data corresponding to the last received
ticket.
Note that this function under TLS1.3 requires a callback to be set
with ‘gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function()’ for successful
operation. There was a bug before 3.6.10 which could make this
function fail if that callback was not set. On later versions if
not set, the function will return a successful error code, but will
return dummy data that cannot lead to a resumption.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_session_get_desc
-----------------------
-- Function: char * gnutls_session_get_desc (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
This function returns a string describing the current session. The
string is null terminated and allocated using ‘gnutls_malloc()’ .
If initial negotiation is not complete when this function is
called, ‘NULL’ will be returned.
*Returns:* a description of the protocols and algorithms in the
current session.
*Since:* 3.1.10
gnutls_session_get_flags
------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_session_get_flags (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return a series (ORed) of flags, applicable for
the current session.
This replaces individual informational functions such as
‘gnutls_safe_renegotiation_status()’ ,
‘gnutls_session_ext_master_secret_status()’ , etc.
*Returns:* An ORed sequence of flags (see ‘gnutls_session_flags_t’
)
*Since:* 3.5.0
gnutls_session_get_id
---------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_get_id (gnutls_session_t SESSION, void
* SESSION_ID, size_t * SESSION_ID_SIZE)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SESSION_ID: is a pointer to space to hold the session id.
SESSION_ID_SIZE: initially should contain the maximum ‘session_id’
size and will be updated.
Returns the TLS session identifier. The session ID is selected by
the server, and in older versions of TLS was a unique identifier
shared between client and server which was persistent across
resumption. In the latest version of TLS (1.3) or TLS with session
tickets, the notion of session identifiers is undefined and cannot
be relied for uniquely identifying sessions across client and
server.
In client side this function returns the identifier returned by the
server, and cannot be assumed to have any relation to session
resumption. In server side this function is guaranteed to return a
persistent identifier of the session since GnuTLS 3.6.4, which may
not necessarily map into the TLS session ID value. Prior to that
version the value could only be considered a persistent identifier,
under TLS1.2 or earlier and when no session tickets were in use.
The session identifier value returned is always less than
‘GNUTLS_MAX_SESSION_ID_SIZE’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_session_get_id2
----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_get_id2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_datum_t * SESSION_ID)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SESSION_ID: will point to the session ID.
Returns the TLS session identifier. The session ID is selected by
the server, and in older versions of TLS was a unique identifier
shared between client and server which was persistent across
resumption. In the latest version of TLS (1.3) or TLS 1.2 with
session tickets, the notion of session identifiers is undefined and
cannot be relied for uniquely identifying sessions across client
and server.
In client side this function returns the identifier returned by the
server, and cannot be assumed to have any relation to session
resumption. In server side this function is guaranteed to return a
persistent identifier of the session since GnuTLS 3.6.4, which may
not necessarily map into the TLS session ID value. Prior to that
version the value could only be considered a persistent identifier,
under TLS1.2 or earlier and when no session tickets were in use.
The session identifier value returned is always less than
‘GNUTLS_MAX_SESSION_ID_SIZE’ and should be treated as constant.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.1.4

session. The pointers are not to be modified or deallocated.
This function is only applicable under TLS 1.2 or earlier versions.
*Since:* 3.5.0
gnutls_session_get_ptr
----------------------
-- Function: void * gnutls_session_get_ptr (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Get user pointer for session. Useful in callbacks. This is the
pointer set with ‘gnutls_session_set_ptr()’ .
*Returns:* the user given pointer from the session structure, or
‘NULL’ if it was never set.
gnutls_session_get_random
-------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_get_random (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_datum_t * CLIENT, gnutls_datum_t * SERVER)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
CLIENT: the client part of the random
SERVER: the server part of the random
This function returns pointers to the client and server random
fields used in the TLS handshake. The pointers are not to be
modified or deallocated.
If a client random value has not yet been established, the output
will be garbage.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_session_get_verify_cert_status
-------------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_session_get_verify_cert_status
(gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
This function returns the status of the verification when initiated
via auto-verification, i.e., by ‘gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2()’
or ‘gnutls_session_set_verify_cert()’ . If no certificate
verification was occurred then the return value would be set to
((unsigned int)-1).
The certificate verification status is the same as in
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers()’ .
*Returns:* the certificate verification status.
*Since:* 3.4.6
gnutls_session_is_resumed
-------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_is_resumed (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Checks whether session is resumed or not. This is functional for
both server and client side.
*Returns:* non zero if this session is resumed, or a zero if this
is a new session.
gnutls_session_key_update
-------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_key_update (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FLAGS: zero of ‘GNUTLS_KU_PEER’
This function will update/refresh the session keys when the TLS
protocol is 1.3 or better. The peer is notified of the update by
sending a message, so this function should be treated similarly to
‘gnutls_record_send()’ –i.e., it may return ‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ .
When this flag ‘GNUTLS_KU_PEER’ is specified, this function in
addition to updating the local keys, will ask the peer to refresh
its keys too.
If the negotiated version is not TLS 1.3 or better this function
will return ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code.

SESSION_DATA: is a pointer to space to hold the session.
SESSION_DATA_SIZE: is the session’s size
Sets all session parameters, in order to resume a previously
established session. The session data given must be the one
returned by ‘gnutls_session_get_data()’ . This function should be
called before ‘gnutls_handshake()’ .
Keep in mind that session resuming is advisory. The server may
choose not to resume the session, thus a full handshake will be
performed.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_session_set_id
---------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_set_id (gnutls_session_t SESSION, const
gnutls_datum_t * SID)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
SID: the session identifier
This function sets the session ID to be used in a client hello.
This is a function intended for exceptional uses. Do not use this
function unless you are implementing a custom protocol.
To set session resumption parameters use
‘gnutls_session_set_data()’ instead.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
*Since:* 3.2.1

ENTITY: GNUTLS_SERVER or GNUTLS_CLIENT
VERSION: the TLS protocol version
KX: the key exchange method
CIPHER: the cipher
MAC: the MAC algorithm
COMP: the compression method (ignored)
MASTER: the master key to use
SESSION_ID: the session identifier
This function sets the premaster secret in a session. This is a
function intended for exceptional uses. Do not use this function
unless you are implementing a legacy protocol. Use
‘gnutls_session_set_data()’ instead.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise an error code is returned.
gnutls_session_set_ptr
----------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_set_ptr (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
void * PTR)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PTR: is the user pointer
This function will set (associate) the user given pointer ‘ptr’ to
the session structure. This pointer can be accessed with
‘gnutls_session_get_ptr()’ .
gnutls_session_set_verify_cert
------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_set_verify_cert (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
HOSTNAME: is the expected name of the peer; may be ‘NULL’
FLAGS: flags for certificate verification –
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’
This function instructs GnuTLS to verify the peer’s certificate
using the provided hostname. If the verification fails the
handshake will also fail with
‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_VERIFICATION_ERROR’ . In that case the
verification result can be obtained using
‘gnutls_session_get_verify_cert_status()’ .
The ‘hostname’ pointer provided must remain valid for the lifetime
of the session. More precisely it should be available during any
subsequent handshakes. If no hostname is provided, no hostname
verification will be performed. For a more advanced verification
function check ‘gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2()’ .
If ‘flags’ is provided which contain a profile, this function
should be called after any session priority setting functions.
The ‘gnutls_session_set_verify_cert()’ function is intended to be
used by TLS clients to verify the server’s certificate.
*Since:* 3.4.6
gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2
-------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_set_verify_cert2 (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_typed_vdata_st * DATA, unsigned ELEMENTS,
unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: is a gnutls session
DATA: an array of typed data
ELEMENTS: the number of data elements
FLAGS: flags for certificate verification –
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’
This function instructs GnuTLS to verify the peer’s certificate
using the provided typed data information. If the verification
fails the handshake will also fail with
‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_VERIFICATION_ERROR’ . In that case the
verification result can be obtained using
‘gnutls_session_get_verify_cert_status()’ .
The acceptable typed data are the same as in
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers()’ , and once set must remain
valid for the lifetime of the session. More precisely they should
be available during any subsequent handshakes.
If ‘flags’ is provided which contain a profile, this function
should be called after any session priority setting functions.
*Since:* 3.4.6
gnutls_session_set_verify_function
----------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_session_set_verify_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_certificate_verify_function * FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function sets a callback to be called when peer’s certificate
has been received in order to verify it on receipt rather than
doing after the handshake is completed. This overrides any
callback set using ‘gnutls_certificate_set_verify_function()’ .
The callback’s function prototype is: int
(*callback)(gnutls_session_t);
If the callback function is provided then gnutls will call it, in
the handshake, just after the certificate message has been
received. To verify or obtain the certificate the
‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers2()’ ,
‘gnutls_certificate_type_get()’ , ‘gnutls_certificate_get_peers()’
functions can be used.
The callback function should return 0 for the handshake to continue
or non-zero to terminate.
*Since:* 3.4.6
gnutls_session_supplemental_register
------------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_supplemental_register (gnutls_session_t

NAME: the name of the supplemental data to register
TYPE: the type of the supplemental data format
RECV_FUNC: the function to receive the data
SEND_FUNC: the function to send the data
FLAGS: must be zero
This function will register a new supplemental data type (rfc4680).
The registered supplemental functions will be used for that
specific session. The provided ‘type’ must be an unassigned type
in ‘gnutls_supplemental_data_format_type_t’ .
If the type is already registered or handled by GnuTLS internally
‘GNUTLS_E_ALREADY_REGISTERED’ will be returned.
As supplemental data are not defined under TLS 1.3, this function
will disable TLS 1.3 support for the given session.

SESSION, const gnutls_datum_t * KEY)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
KEY: key to encrypt session parameters.
Request that the server should attempt session resumption using
session tickets, i.e., by delegating storage to the client. ‘key’
must be initialized using ‘gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate()’ .
To avoid leaking that key, use ‘gnutls_memset()’ prior to releasing
it.
The default ticket expiration time can be overridden using
‘gnutls_db_set_cache_expiration()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or an
error code.
*Since:* 2.10.0
gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate
----------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_session_ticket_key_generate (gnutls_datum_t *
KEY)
KEY: is a pointer to a ‘gnutls_datum_t’ which will contain a newly
created key.
Generate a random key to encrypt security parameters within
SessionTicket.

Sends a fresh session ticket to the peer. This is relevant only in
server side under TLS1.3. This function may also return
‘GNUTLS_E_AGAIN’ or ‘GNUTLS_E_INTERRUPTED’ and in that case it must
be called again.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or a negative error code.
gnutls_set_default_priority
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_set_default_priority (gnutls_session_t SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
Sets the default priority on the ciphers, key exchange methods, and
macs. This is the recommended method of setting the defaults, in
order to promote consistency between applications using GnuTLS, and
to allow GnuTLS using applications to update settings in par with
the library. For client applications which require maximum
compatibility consider calling
‘gnutls_session_enable_compatibility_mode()’ after this function.
For an application to specify additional options to priority string
consider using ‘gnutls_set_default_priority_append()’ .
To allow a user to override the defaults (e.g., when a user
interface or configuration file is available), the functions
‘gnutls_priority_set_direct()’ or ‘gnutls_priority_set()’ can be
used.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
*Since:* 2.1.4
gnutls_set_default_priority_append
----------------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_set_default_priority_append (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, const char * ADD_PRIO, const char ** ERR_POS,
unsigned FLAGS)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
ADD_PRIO: is a string describing priorities to be appended to
default
ERR_POS: In case of an error this will have the position in the
string the error occurred
FLAGS: must be zero
Sets the default priority on the ciphers, key exchange methods, and
macs with the additional options in ‘add_prio’ . This is the
recommended method of setting the defaults when only few additional
options are to be added. This promotes consistency between
applications using GnuTLS, and allows GnuTLS using applications to
update settings in par with the library.
The ‘add_prio’ string should start as a normal priority string,
e.g., ’-VERS-TLS-ALL:+VERS-TLS1.3:%COMPAT’ or ’%FORCE_ETM’. That
is, it must not start with ’:’.
To allow a user to override the defaults (e.g., when a user
interface or configuration file is available), the functions
‘gnutls_priority_set_direct()’ or ‘gnutls_priority_set()’ can be
used.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, or an error code.
*Since:* 3.6.3

SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
INDX: is an index of the signature algorithm to return
ALGO: the returned certificate type will be stored there
Returns the signature algorithm specified by index that was
requested by the peer. If the specified index has no data
available this function returns

-- Function: void gnutls_srp_set_client_credentials_function
(gnutls_srp_client_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_srp_client_credentials_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the
username and password for client SRP authentication. The
callback’s function form is:
int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t, char** username, char**password);
The ‘username’ and ‘password’ must be allocated using
‘gnutls_malloc()’ .
The ‘username’ should be an ASCII string or UTF-8 string. In case
of a UTF-8 string it is recommended to be following the PRECIS
framework for usernames (rfc8265). The password can be in ASCII
format, or normalized using ‘gnutls_utf8_password_normalize()’ .
The callback function will be called once per handshake before the
initial hello message is sent.
The callback should not return a negative error code the second
time called, since the handshake procedure will be aborted.

error code.
gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function
------------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_srp_set_server_credentials_function
(gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_srp_server_credentials_function * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function can be used to set a callback to retrieve the user’s
SRP credentials. The callback’s function form is:
int (*callback)(gnutls_session_t, const char* username,
gnutls_datum_t *salt, gnutls_datum_t *verifier, gnutls_datum_t
*generator, gnutls_datum_t *prime);
‘username’ contains the actual username. The ‘salt’ , ‘verifier’ ,
‘generator’ and ‘prime’ must be filled in using the
‘gnutls_malloc()’ . For convenience ‘prime’ and ‘generator’ may
also be one of the static parameters defined in gnutls.h.
Initially, the data field is NULL in every ‘gnutls_datum_t’
structure that the callback has to fill in. When the callback is
done GnuTLS deallocates all of those buffers which are non-NULL,
regardless of the return value.
In order to prevent attackers from guessing valid usernames, if a
user does not exist, g and n values should be filled in using a
random user’s parameters. In that case the callback must return
the special value (1). See ‘gnutls_srp_set_server_fake_salt_seed’
too. If this is not required for your application, return a
negative number from the callback to abort the handshake.
The callback function will only be called once per handshake. The
callback function should return 0 on success, while -1 indicates an
error.
gnutls_srp_set_server_fake_salt_seed
------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_srp_set_server_fake_salt_seed
(gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t CRED, const gnutls_datum_t *
SEED, unsigned int SALT_LENGTH)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ type
SEED: is the seed data, only needs to be valid until the function
returns; size of the seed must be greater than zero
SALT_LENGTH: is the length of the generated fake salts
This function sets the seed that is used to generate salts for
invalid (non-existent) usernames.
In order to prevent attackers from guessing valid usernames, when a
user does not exist gnutls generates a salt and a verifier and
proceeds with the protocol as usual. The authentication will
ultimately fail, but the client cannot tell whether the username is
valid (exists) or invalid.
If an attacker learns the seed, given a salt (which is part of the
handshake) which was generated when the seed was in use, it can
tell whether or not the authentication failed because of an unknown
username. This seed cannot be used to reveal application data or
passwords.
‘salt_length’ should represent the salt length your application
uses. Generating fake salts longer than 20 bytes is not supported.
By default the seed is a random value, different each time a
‘gnutls_srp_server_credentials_t’ is allocated and fake salts are
16 bytes long.

This function will create an SRP verifier, as specified in RFC2945.
The ‘prime’ and ‘generator’ should be one of the static parameters
defined in gnutls/gnutls.h or may be generated.
The verifier will be allocated with ‘gnutls_malloc’ () and will be
stored in ‘res’ using binary format.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or an
error code.

It requires the space of the key material to be pre-allocated
(should be at least 2x the maximum key size and salt size). The
‘client_key’ , ‘client_salt’ , ‘server_key’ and ‘server_salt’ are
convenience datums that point inside the key material. They may be
‘NULL’ .

-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_errno (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
int ERR)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
ERR: error value to store in session-specific errno variable.
Store ‘err’ in the session-specific errno variable. Useful values
for ‘err’ are EINTR, EAGAIN and EMSGSIZE, other values are treated
will be treated as real errors in the push/pull function.
This function is useful in replacement push and pull functions set
by ‘gnutls_transport_set_push_function()’ and
‘gnutls_transport_set_pull_function()’ under Windows, where the
replacements may not have access to the same ‘errno’ variable that
is used by GnuTLS (e.g., the application is linked to msvcr71.dll
and gnutls is linked to msvcrt.dll).
This function is unreliable if you are using the same ‘session’ in
different threads for sending and receiving.
gnutls_transport_set_errno_function
-----------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_errno_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_errno_func ERRNO_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
ERRNO_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘write()’

with the descriptor, but requires no casts.
*Since:* 3.1.9
gnutls_transport_set_int2
-------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_int2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
int RECV_FD, int SEND_FD)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
RECV_FD: is socket descriptor for the pull function
SEND_FD: is socket descriptor for the push function
This function sets the first argument of the transport functions,
such as ‘send()’ and ‘recv()’ for the default callbacks using the
system’s socket API. With this function you can set two different
descriptors for receiving and sending.
This function is equivalent to calling
‘gnutls_transport_set_ptr2()’ with the descriptors, but requires no
casts.
*Since:* 3.1.9
gnutls_transport_set_ptr
------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_ptr (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_transport_ptr_t PTR)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PTR: is the value.
Used to set the first argument of the transport function (for push
and pull callbacks). In berkeley style sockets this function will
set the connection descriptor.
gnutls_transport_set_ptr2
-------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_ptr2 (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_transport_ptr_t RECV_PTR, gnutls_transport_ptr_t
SEND_PTR)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.

and pull callbacks). In berkeley style sockets this function will
set the connection descriptor. With this function you can use two
different pointers for receiving and sending.
gnutls_transport_set_pull_function
----------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_pull_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_pull_func PULL_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PULL_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘read()’
This is the function where you set a function for gnutls to receive
data. Normally, if you use berkeley style sockets, do not need to
use this function since the default recv(2) will probably be ok.
The callback should return 0 on connection termination, a positive
number indicating the number of bytes received, and -1 on error.
‘gnutls_pull_func’ is of the form, ssize_t
(*gnutls_pull_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, void*, size_t);
gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function
------------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_pull_timeout_function
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_pull_timeout_func FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
FUNC: a callback function
This is the function where you set a function for gnutls to know
whether data are ready to be received. It should wait for data a
given time frame in milliseconds. The callback should return 0 on
timeout, a positive number if data can be received, and -1 on
error. You’ll need to override this function if ‘select()’ is not
suitable for the provided transport calls.
As with ‘select()’ , if the timeout value is zero the callback
should return zero if no data are immediately available. The
special value ‘GNUTLS_INDEFINITE_TIMEOUT’ indicates that the
callback should wait indefinitely for data.
‘gnutls_pull_timeout_func’ is of the form, int
(*gnutls_pull_timeout_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, unsigned int
ms);
This callback is necessary when ‘gnutls_handshake_set_timeout()’ or
‘gnutls_record_set_timeout()’ are set, under TLS1.3 and for
enforcing the DTLS mode timeouts when in blocking mode.
For compatibility with future GnuTLS versions this callback must be
set when a custom pull function is registered. The callback will
not be used when the session is in TLS mode with non-blocking
sockets. That is, when ‘GNUTLS_NONBLOCK’ is specified for a TLS
session in ‘gnutls_init()’ .
The helper function ‘gnutls_system_recv_timeout()’ is provided to
simplify writing callbacks.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_transport_set_push_function
----------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_push_function (gnutls_session_t
SESSION, gnutls_push_func PUSH_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
PUSH_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘write()’
This is the function where you set a push function for gnutls to
use in order to send data. If you are going to use berkeley style
sockets, you do not need to use this function since the default
send(2) will probably be ok. Otherwise you should specify this
function for gnutls to be able to send data. The callback should
return a positive number indicating the bytes sent, and -1 on
error.
‘push_func’ is of the form, ssize_t
(*gnutls_push_func)(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, const void*, size_t);
gnutls_transport_set_vec_push_function
--------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_transport_set_vec_push_function
(gnutls_session_t SESSION, gnutls_vec_push_func VEC_FUNC)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
VEC_FUNC: a callback function similar to ‘writev()’
Using this function you can override the default writev(2) function
for gnutls to send data. Setting this callback instead of
‘gnutls_transport_set_push_function()’ is recommended since it
introduces less overhead in the TLS handshake process.
‘vec_func’ is of the form, ssize_t (*gnutls_vec_push_func)
(gnutls_transport_ptr_t, const giovec_t * iov, int iovcnt);
*Since:* 2.12.0
gnutls_url_is_supported
-----------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_url_is_supported (const char * URL)
URL: A URI to be tested
Check whether the provided ‘url’ is supported. Depending on the
system libraries GnuTLS may support pkcs11, tpmkey or other URLs.
*Returns:* return non-zero if the given URL is supported, and zero
if it is not known.
*Since:* 3.1.0

PASSWORD, unsigned PLEN, gnutls_datum_t * OUT, unsigned FLAGS)
PASSWORD: contain the UTF-8 formatted password
PLEN: the length of the provided password
OUT: the result in an null-terminated allocated string
FLAGS: should be zero
This function will convert the provided UTF-8 password according to
the normalization rules in RFC7613.
If the flag ‘GNUTLS_UTF8_IGNORE_ERRS’ is specified, any UTF-8
encoding errors will be ignored, and in that case the output will
be a copy of the input.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_UTF8_STRING’ on invalid UTF-8 data, or
0 on success.
*Since:* 3.5.7
gnutls_verify_stored_pubkey
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_verify_stored_pubkey (const char * DB_NAME,
gnutls_tdb_t TDB, const char * HOST, const char * SERVICE,
gnutls_certificate_type_t CERT_TYPE, const gnutls_datum_t *
CERT, unsigned int FLAGS)
DB_NAME: A file specifying the stored keys (use NULL for the
default)
TDB: A storage structure or NULL to use the default
HOST: The peer’s name
SERVICE: non-NULL if this key is specific to a service (e.g. http)
CERT_TYPE: The type of the certificate
CERT: The raw (der) data of the certificate
FLAGS: should be 0.
This function will try to verify a raw public-key or a public-key
provided via a raw (DER-encoded) certificate using a list of stored
public keys. The ‘service’ field if non-NULL should be a port
number.
The ‘db_name’ variable if non-null specifies a custom backend for
the retrieval of entries. If it is NULL then the default file
backend will be used. In POSIX-like systems the file backend uses
the $HOME/.gnutls/known_hosts file.
Note that if the custom storage backend is provided the retrieval
function should return ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ if the
host/service pair is found but key doesn’t match,
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_FOUND’ if no such host/service with the
given key is found, and 0 if it was found. The storage function
should return 0 on success.
As of GnuTLS 3.6.6 this function also verifies raw public keys.
*Returns:* If no associated public key is found then
‘GNUTLS_E_NO_CERTIFICATE_FOUND’ will be returned. If a key is
found but does not match ‘GNUTLS_E_CERTIFICATE_KEY_MISMATCH’ is
returned. On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, or a
negative error value on other errors.

PRESTATE: The previous cookie returned by
‘gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify()’
PTR: A transport pointer to be used by ‘push_func’
PUSH_FUNC: A function that will be used to reply
This function can be used to prevent denial of service attacks to a
DTLS server by requiring the client to reply using a cookie sent by
this function. That way it can be ensured that a client we
allocated resources for (i.e. ‘gnutls_session_t’ ) is the one that
the original incoming packet was originated from.
This function must be called at the first incoming packet, prior to
allocating any resources and must be succeeded by
‘gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify()’ .
*Returns:* the number of bytes sent, or a negative error code.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify
-------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify (gnutls_datum_t * KEY, void

CLIENT_DATA_SIZE: The size of client’s data
_MSG: An incoming message that initiates a connection.
MSG_SIZE: The size of the message.
PRESTATE: The cookie of this client.
This function will verify the received message for a valid cookie.
If a valid cookie is returned then it should be associated with the
session using ‘gnutls_dtls_prestate_set()’ ;
This function must be called after ‘gnutls_dtls_cookie_send()’ .
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success, or a negative error
code.

actual MTU which is set using ‘gnutls_dtls_set_mtu()’ .
*Returns:* the maximum allowed transfer unit.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_dtls_get_mtu
-------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_dtls_get_mtu (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return the MTU size as set with
‘gnutls_dtls_set_mtu()’ . This is not the actual MTU of data you
can transmit. Use ‘gnutls_dtls_get_data_mtu()’ for that reason.
*Returns:* the set maximum transfer unit.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_dtls_get_timeout
-----------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_dtls_get_timeout (gnutls_session_t
SESSION)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
This function will return the milliseconds remaining for a
retransmission of the previously sent handshake message. This
function is useful when DTLS is used in non-blocking mode, to
estimate when to call ‘gnutls_handshake()’ if no packets have been
received.
*Returns:* the remaining time in milliseconds.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_dtls_prestate_set
------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_dtls_prestate_set (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
gnutls_dtls_prestate_st * PRESTATE)
SESSION: a new session
PRESTATE: contains the client’s prestate
This function will associate the prestate acquired by the cookie
authentication with the client, with the newly established session.
This functions must be called after a successful
‘gnutls_dtls_cookie_verify()’ and should be succeeded by the actual
DTLS handshake using ‘gnutls_handshake()’ .
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_dtls_set_data_mtu
------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_dtls_set_data_mtu (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int MTU)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
MTU: The maximum unencrypted transfer unit of the session
This function will set the maximum size of the *unencrypted*
records which will be sent over a DTLS session. It is equivalent
to calculating the DTLS packet overhead with the current encryption
parameters, and calling ‘gnutls_dtls_set_mtu()’ with that value.
In particular, this means that you may need to call this function
again after any negotiation or renegotiation, in order to ensure
that the MTU is still sufficient to account for the new protocol
overhead.
In most cases you only need to call ‘gnutls_dtls_set_mtu()’ with
the maximum MTU of your transport layer.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) on success, or a negative error
code.
*Since:* 3.1
gnutls_dtls_set_mtu
-------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_dtls_set_mtu (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int MTU)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
MTU: The maximum transfer unit of the transport
This function will set the maximum transfer unit of the transport
that DTLS packets are sent over. Note that this should exclude the
IP (or IPv6) and UDP headers. So for DTLS over IPv6 on an Ethernet
device with MTU 1500, the DTLS MTU set with this function would be
1500 - 40 (IPV6 header) - 8 (UDP header) = 1452.
*Since:* 3.0

------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_dtls_set_timeouts (gnutls_session_t SESSION,
unsigned int RETRANS_TIMEOUT, unsigned int TOTAL_TIMEOUT)
SESSION: is a ‘gnutls_session_t’ type.
RETRANS_TIMEOUT: The time at which a retransmission will occur in
milliseconds
TOTAL_TIMEOUT: The time at which the connection will be aborted, in
milliseconds.
This function will set the timeouts required for the DTLS handshake
protocol. The retransmission timeout is the time after which a
message from the peer is not received, the previous messages will
be retransmitted. The total timeout is the time after which the
handshake will be aborted with ‘GNUTLS_E_TIMEDOUT’ .
The DTLS protocol recommends the values of 1 sec and 60 seconds
respectively, and these are the default values.
To disable retransmissions set a ‘retrans_timeout’ larger than the
‘total_timeout’ .
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_record_get_discarded
---------------------------
-- Function: unsigned int gnutls_record_get_discarded (gnutls_session_t

TLIST: Location where to store the trust list.
Obtains the list of trusted certificates stored in ‘res’ and writes
a pointer to it to the location ‘tlist’ . The pointer will point
to memory internal to ‘res’ , and must not be deinitialized. It
will be automatically deallocated when the ‘res’ structure is
deinitialized.
*Since:* 3.4.0
gnutls_certificate_set_trust_list

‘gnutls_x509_crt_set_key()’ since a certificate request is self
signed.
This must be the last step in a certificate request generation
since all the previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed request
will not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification),
until it is exported an re-imported.
After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of ‘dig’ may be ‘GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN’ ,
and in that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm
will be selected.

gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname
------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname (gnutls_x509_crt_t
CERT, const char * HOSTNAME)
CERT: should contain an gnutls_x509_crt_t type
HOSTNAME: A null terminated string that contains a DNS name
This function will check if the given certificate’s subject matches
the given hostname. This is a basic implementation of the matching
described in RFC6125, and takes into account wildcards, and the
DNSName/IPAddress subject alternative name PKIX extension.
For details see also ‘gnutls_x509_crt_check_hostname2()’ .
*Returns:* non-zero for a successful match, and zero on failure.

HOSTNAME: A null terminated string that contains a DNS name
FLAGS: gnutls_certificate_verify_flags
This function will check if the given certificate’s subject matches
the given hostname. This is a basic implementation of the matching
described in RFC6125, and takes into account wildcards, and the
DNSName/IPAddress subject alternative name PKIX extension.
IPv4 addresses are accepted by this function in the dotted-decimal
format (e.g, ddd.ddd.ddd.ddd), and IPv6 addresses in the
hexadecimal x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x format. For them the IPAddress subject
alternative name extension is consulted. Previous versions to
3.6.0 of GnuTLS in case of a non-match would consult (in a
non-standard extension) the DNSname and CN fields. This is no
longer the case.
When the flag ‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_WILDCARDS’ is specified
no wildcards are considered. Otherwise they are only considered if
the domain name consists of three components or more, and the
wildcard starts at the leftmost position. When the flag
‘GNUTLS_VERIFY_DO_NOT_ALLOW_IP_MATCHES’ is specified, the input
will be treated as a DNS name, and matching of textual IP addresses
against the IPAddress part of the alternative name will not be
allowed.
The function ‘gnutls_x509_crt_check_ip()’ is available for matching
IP addresses.
*Returns:* non-zero for a successful match, and zero on failure.

This function will check if the given certificate was issued by the
given issuer. It checks the DN fields and the authority key
identifier and subject key identifier fields match.
If the same certificate is provided at the ‘cert’ and ‘issuer’
fields, it will check whether the certificate is self-signed.
*Returns:* It will return true (1) if the given certificate is
issued by the given issuer, and false (0) if not.
gnutls_x509_crt_check_key_purpose
---------------------------------
-- Function: unsigned gnutls_x509_crt_check_key_purpose
(gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const char * PURPOSE, unsigned FLAGS)

(gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, unsigned int SEQ, int WHAT,
gnutls_datum_t * DATA, unsigned int * CRITICAL)
CRT: Holds the certificate
SEQ: specifies the sequence number of the access descriptor (0 for
the first one, 1 for the second etc.)
WHAT: what data to get, a ‘gnutls_info_access_what_t’ type.
DATA: output data to be freed with ‘gnutls_free()’ .
CRITICAL: pointer to output integer that is set to non-zero if the
extension is marked as critical (may be ‘NULL’ )
Note that a simpler API to access the authority info data is
provided by ‘gnutls_x509_aia_get()’ and
‘gnutls_x509_ext_import_aia()’ .
This function extracts the Authority Information Access (AIA)
extension, see RFC 5280 section 4.2.2.1 for more information. The
AIA extension holds a sequence of AccessDescription (AD) data.
The ‘seq’ input parameter is used to indicate which member of the
sequence the caller is interested in. The first member is 0, the
second member 1 and so on. When the ‘seq’ value is out of bounds,
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned.
The type of data returned in ‘data’ is specified via ‘what’ which
should be ‘gnutls_info_access_what_t’ values.
If ‘what’ is ‘GNUTLS_IA_ACCESSMETHOD_OID’ then ‘data’ will hold the
accessMethod OID (e.g., "1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.1").
If ‘what’ is ‘GNUTLS_IA_ACCESSLOCATION_GENERALNAME_TYPE’ , ‘data’
will hold the accessLocation GeneralName type (e.g.,
"uniformResourceIdentifier").
If ‘what’ is ‘GNUTLS_IA_URI’ , ‘data’ will hold the accessLocation
URI data. Requesting this ‘what’ value leads to an error if the
accessLocation is not of the "uniformResourceIdentifier" type.
If ‘what’ is ‘GNUTLS_IA_OCSP_URI’ , ‘data’ will hold the OCSP URI.
Requesting this ‘what’ value leads to an error if the accessMethod
is not 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.1 aka OCSP, or if accessLocation is not of
the "uniformResourceIdentifier" type. In that case
‘GNUTLS_E_UNKNOWN_ALGORITHM’ will be returned, and ‘seq’ should be
increased and this function called again.
If ‘what’ is ‘GNUTLS_IA_CAISSUERS_URI’ , ‘data’ will hold the
caIssuers URI. Requesting this ‘what’ value leads to an error if
the accessMethod is not 1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.2 aka caIssuers, or if
accessLocation is not of the "uniformResourceIdentifier" type. In
that case handle as in ‘GNUTLS_IA_OCSP_URI’ .
More ‘what’ values may be allocated in the future as needed.
If ‘data’ is NULL, the function does the same without storing the
output data, that is, it will set ‘critical’ and do error checking
as usual.
The value of the critical flag is returned in * ‘critical’ .
Supply a NULL ‘critical’ if you want the function to make sure the
extension is non-critical, as required by RFC 5280.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success,

RAW_FLAG: If non-zero returns the raw DER data of the DN part.
BUF: a pointer to a structure to hold the name (may be null)
BUF_SIZE: initially holds the size of ‘buf’
This function will extract the part of the name of the Certificate
issuer specified by the given OID. The output, if the raw flag is
not used, will be encoded as described in RFC4514. Thus a string
that is ASCII or UTF-8 encoded, depending on the certificate data.
Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h
If raw flag is (0), this function will only return known OIDs as
text. Other OIDs will be DER encoded, as described in RFC4514 – in
hex format with a ’#’ prefix. You can check about known OIDs using
‘gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known()’ .
If ‘buf’ is null then only the size will be filled. If the
‘raw_flag’ is not specified the output is always null terminated,
although the ‘buf_size’ will not include the null character.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’ if the provided buffer is
not long enough, and in that case the ‘buf_size’ will be updated
with the required size. ‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ if

BUF_SIZE: size of user allocated memory buffer (on input), will
hold actual size of the unique ID on return.
This function will extract the issuerUniqueID value (if present)
for the given certificate.
If the user allocated memory buffer is not large enough to hold the
full subjectUniqueID, then a GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER error
will be returned, and buf_size will be set to the actual length.
This function had a bug prior to 3.4.8 that prevented the setting
of ‘NULL’ ‘buf’ to discover the ‘buf_size’ . To use this function
safely with the older versions the ‘buf’ must be a valid buffer
that can hold at least a single byte if ‘buf_size’ is zero.

replaced by the actual size of parameters)
This function will return a unique ID that depends on the public
key parameters. This ID can be used in checking whether a
certificate corresponds to the given private key.
If the buffer provided is not long enough to hold the output, then
*output_data_size is updated and GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER will
be returned. The output will normally be a SHA-1 hash output,
which is 20 bytes.

constraints of the provided CA certificate. That structure can be
used in combination with ‘gnutls_x509_name_constraints_check()’ to
verify whether a server’s name is in accordance with the
constraints.
When the ‘flags’ is set to ‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_APPEND’ , then if the
‘nc’ structure is empty this function will behave identically as if
the flag was not set. Otherwise if there are elements in the ‘nc’
structure then the constraints will be merged with the existing
constraints following RFC5280 p6.1.4 (excluded constraints will be

it will return the type of the alternative name in ‘san_type’ even
if the function fails for some reason (i.e. the buffer provided is
not enough).
*Returns:* the alternative subject name type on success, one of the
enumerated ‘gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t’ . It will return
‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’ if ‘san_size’ is not large enough to

CERT: should contain a ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’ type
SEQ: specifies the sequence number of the alt name (0 for the first
one, 1 for the second etc.)
OID: is the place where the otherName OID will be copied to
OID_SIZE: holds the size of ret.
This function will extract the type OID of an otherName Subject
Alternative Name, contained in the given certificate, and return
the type as an enumerated element.
This function is only useful if
‘gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()’ returned
‘GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME’ .
If ‘oid’ is null then only the size will be filled. The ‘oid’
returned will be null terminated, although ‘oid_size’ will not
account for the trailing null.
*Returns:* the alternative subject name type on success, one of the
enumerated gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t. For supported OIDs, it
will return one of the virtual (GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_*) types, e.g.
‘GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP’ , and ‘GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME’ for
unknown OIDs. It will return ‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’ if
‘ian_size’ is not large enough to hold the value. In that case
‘ian_size’ will be updated with the required size. If the
certificate does not have an Alternative name with the specified
sequence number and with the otherName type then
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ is returned.
gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_key_id
----------------------------------

RET: The place where the identifier will be copied
RET_SIZE: Holds the size of the result field.
CRITICAL: will be non-zero if the extension is marked as critical
(may be null)
This function will return the X.509v3 certificate’s subject key
identifier. This is obtained by the X.509 Subject Key identifier
extension field (2.5.29.14).
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ if the extension is not
present, otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_unique_id

CRT: Holds the certificate
BUF: user allocated memory buffer, will hold the unique id
BUF_SIZE: size of user allocated memory buffer (on input), will
hold actual size of the unique ID on return.
This function will extract the subjectUniqueID value (if present)
for the given certificate.
If the user allocated memory buffer is not large enough to hold the
full subjectUniqueID, then a GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER error
will be returned, and buf_size will be set to the actual length.
This function had a bug prior to 3.4.8 that prevented the setting
of ‘NULL’ ‘buf’ to discover the ‘buf_size’ . To use this function
safely with the older versions the ‘buf’ must be a valid buffer
that can hold at least a single byte if ‘buf_size’ is zero.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code.

FEATURES: If the function succeeds, the features will be stored in
this variable.
FLAGS: zero or ‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_APPEND’
CRITICAL: the extension status
This function will get the X.509 TLS features extension structure
from the certificate. The returned structure needs to be freed
using ‘gnutls_x509_tlsfeatures_deinit()’ .
When the ‘flags’ is set to ‘GNUTLS_EXT_FLAG_APPEND’ , then if the
‘features’ structure is empty this function will behave identically
as if the flag was not set. Otherwise if there are elements in the
‘features’ structure then they will be merged with.
Note that ‘features’ must be initialized prior to calling this
function.

in ‘certs’ . They will be automatically initialized.
The flag ‘GNUTLS_X509_CRT_LIST_IMPORT_FAIL_IF_EXCEED’ will cause
import to fail if the certificates in the provided buffer are more
than the available structures. The
‘GNUTLS_X509_CRT_LIST_FAIL_IF_UNSORTED’ flag will cause the
function to fail if the provided list is not sorted from subject to
issuer.

This function will set the part of the name of the Certificate
issuer, specified by the given OID. The input string should be
ASCII or UTF-8 encoded.
Some helper macros with popular OIDs can be found in gnutls/x509.h
With this function you can only set the known OIDs. You can test
for known OIDs using ‘gnutls_x509_dn_oid_known()’ . For OIDs that
are not known (by gnutls) you should properly DER encode your data,
and call this function with ‘raw_flag’ set.
Normally you do not need to call this function, since the signing
operation will copy the signer’s name as the issuer of the
certificate.

Note the maximum text size for the qualifier
‘GNUTLS_X509_QUALIFIER_NOTICE’ is 200 characters. This function
will fail with ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ if this is exceeded.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.1.5
gnutls_x509_crt_set_private_key_usage_period

NAME, unsigned int SIZEOF_NAME)
CRT: a gnutls_x509_crt_t type with the new proxy cert
EECRT: the end entity certificate that will be issuing the proxy
RAW_FLAG: must be 0, or 1 if the CN is DER encoded
NAME: a pointer to the CN name, may be NULL (but MUST then be added
later)
SIZEOF_NAME: holds the size of ‘name’
This function will set the subject in ‘crt’ to the end entity’s
‘eecrt’ subject name, and add a single Common Name component ‘name’
of size ‘sizeof_name’ . This corresponds to the required proxy
certificate naming style. Note that if ‘name’ is ‘NULL’ , you MUST
set it later by using ‘gnutls_x509_crt_set_dn_by_oid()’ or similar.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_set_serial

SERIAL: The serial number
SERIAL_SIZE: Holds the size of the serial field.
This function will set the X.509 certificate’s serial number.
While the serial number is an integer, it is often handled as an
opaque field by several CAs. For this reason this function accepts
any kind of data as a serial number. To be consistent with the
X.509/PKIX specifications the provided ‘serial’ should be a
big-endian positive number (i.e. its leftmost bit should be zero).
The size of the serial is restricted to 20 bytes maximum by
RFC5280. This function allows writing more than 20 bytes but the
generated certificates in that case may be rejected by other
implementations.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_set_spki
------------------------

SPKI: a SubjectPublicKeyInfo structure of type ‘gnutls_x509_spki_t’
FLAGS: must be zero
This function will set the certificate’s subject public key
information explicitly. This is intended to be used in the cases
where a single public key (e.g., RSA) can be used for multiple
signature algorithms (RSA PKCS1-1.5, and RSA-PSS).
To export the public key (i.e., the SubjectPublicKeyInfo part),
check ‘gnutls_pubkey_import_x509()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.6.0
gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name

extension. It can set the following types: ‘GNUTLS_SAN_DNSNAME’ as
a text string, ‘GNUTLS_SAN_RFC822NAME’ as a text string,
‘GNUTLS_SAN_URI’ as a text string, ‘GNUTLS_SAN_IPADDRESS’ as a
binary IP address (4 or 16 bytes), ‘GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP’ as a
UTF8 string (since 3.5.0).
Since version 3.5.7 the ‘GNUTLS_SAN_RFC822NAME’ ,
‘GNUTLS_SAN_DNSNAME’ , and ‘GNUTLS_SAN_OTHERNAME_XMPP’ are
converted to ACE format when necessary.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 2.6.0
gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_othername
-----------------------------------------

(gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT, const char * OID, const void * DATA,
unsigned int DATA_SIZE, unsigned int FLAGS)
CRT: a certificate of type ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’
OID: The other name OID
DATA: The data to be set
DATA_SIZE: The size of data to be set
FLAGS: GNUTLS_FSAN_SET to clear previous data or GNUTLS_FSAN_APPEND
to append.
This function will set an "othername" to the subject alternative
name certificate extension.
The values set are set as binary values and are expected to have
the proper DER encoding. For convenience the flags
‘GNUTLS_FSAN_ENCODE_OCTET_STRING’ and
‘GNUTLS_FSAN_ENCODE_UTF8_STRING’ can be used to encode the provided
data.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.5.0
gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alternative_name

const char * DATA_STRING)
CRT: a certificate of type ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’
TYPE: is one of the gnutls_x509_subject_alt_name_t enumerations
DATA_STRING: The data to be set, a (0) terminated string
This function will set the subject alternative name certificate
extension. This function assumes that data can be expressed as a
null terminated string.
The name of the function is unfortunate since it is inconsistent
with ‘gnutls_x509_crt_get_subject_alt_name()’ .
See ‘gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name()’ for more information.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_key_id

otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.5.1
gnutls_x509_crt_set_version
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crt_set_version (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT,
unsigned int VERSION)
CRT: a certificate of type ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’
VERSION: holds the version number. For X.509v1 certificates must
be 1.
This function will set the version of the certificate. This must
be one for X.509 version 1, and so on. Plain certificates without
extensions must have version set to one.
To create well-formed certificates, you must specify version 3 if
you use any certificate extensions. Extensions are created by
functions such as ‘gnutls_x509_crt_set_subject_alt_name()’ or
‘gnutls_x509_crt_set_key_usage()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_sign
--------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crt_sign (gnutls_x509_crt_t CRT,
gnutls_x509_crt_t ISSUER, gnutls_x509_privkey_t ISSUER_KEY)
CRT: a certificate of type ‘gnutls_x509_crt_t’
ISSUER: is the certificate of the certificate issuer
ISSUER_KEY: holds the issuer’s private key
This function is the same a ‘gnutls_x509_crt_sign2()’ with no
flags, and an appropriate hash algorithm. The hash algorithm used
may vary between versions of GnuTLS, and it is tied to the security
level of the issuer’s public key.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_sign2
---------------------

ISSUER: is the certificate of the certificate issuer
ISSUER_KEY: holds the issuer’s private key
DIG: The message digest to use, ‘GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256’ is a safe
choice
FLAGS: must be 0
This function will sign the certificate with the issuer’s private
key, and will copy the issuer’s information into the certificate.
This must be the last step in a certificate generation since all
the previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed
certificate will not be fully functional (e.g., for signature
verification), until it is exported an re-imported.
After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of ‘dig’ may be ‘GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN’ ,
and in that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm
will be selected.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_verify
----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_crt_verify (gnutls_x509_crt_t CERT, const

VERIFY: will hold the certificate verification output.
This function will try to verify the given certificate and return
its status. Note that a verification error does not imply a
negative return status. In that case the ‘verify’ status is set.
The details of the verification are the same as in
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_verify_crt2()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_crt_verify_data2

CRT: Holds the certificate to verify with
ALGO: The signature algorithm used
FLAGS: Zero or an OR list of ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_flags’
DATA: holds the signed data
SIGNATURE: contains the signature
This function will verify the given signed data, using the
parameters from the certificate.
*Returns:* In case of a verification failure
‘GNUTLS_E_PK_SIG_VERIFY_FAILED’ is returned, ‘GNUTLS_E_EXPIRED’ or
‘GNUTLS_E_NOT_YET_ACTIVATED’ on expired or not yet activated
certificate and zero or positive code on success.
Note that since GnuTLS 3.5.6 this function introduces checks in the
end certificate ( ‘crt’ ), including time checks and key usage
checks.
*Since:* 3.4.0
gnutls_x509_ct_sct_get
----------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_x509_ct_sct_get (const gnutls_x509_ct_scts_t

This function will return a specific SCT (Signed Certificate
Timestamp) stored in the SCT list ‘scts’ .
The datums holding the SCT’s LogId and signature will be allocated
using ‘gnutls_malloc()’ .

SCTS, unsigned IDX, unsigned int * VERSION_OUT)
SCTS: A list of SCTs
IDX: The index of the target SCT in the list
VERSION_OUT: The version of the target SCT.
This function obtains the version of the SCT at the given position
in the SCT list.
The version of that SCT will be placed on ‘version_out’ .
Return : ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned on success,
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ if ‘idx’ exceeds the number
of SCTs in the list and ‘GNUTLS_E_INVALID_REQUEST’ if the SCT’s
version is different than 1, as that’s currently the only defined
version.

OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE)
DN: Holds the uint8_t DN object
FORMAT: the format of output params. One of PEM or DER.
OUTPUT_DATA: will contain a DN PEM or DER encoded
OUTPUT_DATA_SIZE: holds the size of output_data (and will be
replaced by the actual size of parameters)
This function will export the DN to DER or PEM format.
If the buffer provided is not long enough to hold the output, then
* ‘output_data_size’ is updated and ‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’
will be returned.
If the structure is PEM encoded, it will have a header of "BEGIN
NAME".
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
gnutls_x509_dn_export2

structure is shown below.
struct gnutls_x509_ava_st { gnutls_datum_t oid; gnutls_datum_t
value; unsigned long value_tag; };
The X.509 distinguished name is a sequence of sequences of strings
and this is what the ‘irdn’ and ‘iava’ indexes model.
Note that ‘ava’ will contain pointers into the ‘dn’ structure which
in turns points to the original certificate. Thus you should not
modify any data or deallocate any of those.
This is a low-level function that requires the caller to do the
value conversions when necessary (e.g. from UCS-2).
*Returns:* Returns 0 on success, or an error code.

as described in RFC4514. The output string will be ASCII or UTF-8
encoded, depending on the certificate data.
When the flag ‘GNUTLS_X509_DN_FLAG_COMPAT’ is specified, the output
format will match the format output by previous to 3.5.6 versions
of GnuTLS which was not not fully RFC4514-compliant.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.
*Since:* 3.5.7
gnutls_x509_dn_import

ALGO: is one of the algorithms in ‘gnutls_pk_algorithm_t’ .
BITS: the size of the parameters to generate
FLAGS: Must be zero or flags from ‘gnutls_privkey_flags_t’ .
This function will generate a random private key. Note that this
function must be called on an initialized private key.
The flag ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_PROVABLE’ instructs the key
generation process to use algorithms like Shawe-Taylor (from FIPS
PUB186-4) which generate provable parameters out of a seed for RSA
and DSA keys. See ‘gnutls_x509_privkey_generate2()’ for more
information.
Note that when generating an elliptic curve key, the curve can be
substituted in the place of the bits parameter using the
‘GNUTLS_CURVE_TO_BITS()’ macro. The input to the macro is any
curve from ‘gnutls_ecc_curve_t’ .
For DSA keys, if the subgroup size needs to be specified check the
‘GNUTLS_SUBGROUP_TO_BITS()’ macro.
It is recommended to do not set the number of ‘bits’ directly, use
‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ instead .
See also ‘gnutls_privkey_generate()’ ,
‘gnutls_x509_privkey_generate2()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.

KEY, gnutls_pk_algorithm_t ALGO, unsigned int BITS, unsigned
int FLAGS, const gnutls_keygen_data_st * DATA, unsigned

KEY: a key
ALGO: is one of the algorithms in ‘gnutls_pk_algorithm_t’ .

DATA: Allow specifying ‘gnutls_keygen_data_st’ types such as the
seed to be used.
DATA_SIZE: The number of ‘data’ available.
This function will generate a random private key. Note that this
function must be called on an initialized private key.
The flag ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_PROVABLE’ instructs the key
generation process to use algorithms like Shawe-Taylor (from FIPS
PUB186-4) which generate provable parameters out of a seed for RSA
and DSA keys. On DSA keys the PQG parameters are generated using
the seed, while on RSA the two primes. To specify an explicit seed
(by default a random seed is used), use the ‘data’ with a
‘GNUTLS_KEYGEN_SEED’ type.
Note that when generating an elliptic curve key, the curve can be
substituted in the place of the bits parameter using the
‘GNUTLS_CURVE_TO_BITS()’ macro.
To export the generated keys in memory or in files it is
recommended to use the PKCS‘8’ form as it can handle all key types,
and can store additional parameters such as the seed, in case of
provable RSA or DSA keys. Generated keys can be exported in memory
using ‘gnutls_privkey_export_x509()’ , and then with
‘gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8()’ .
If key generation is part of your application, avoid setting the
number of bits directly, and instead use
‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ . That way the generated keys will
adapt to the security levels of the underlying GnuTLS library.
See also ‘gnutls_privkey_generate2()’ .

otherwise a negative error value.

This function will return a unique ID that depends on the public
key parameters. This ID can be used in checking whether a
certificate corresponds to the given key.
If the buffer provided is not long enough to hold the output, then
* ‘output_data_size’ is updated and ‘GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER’
will be returned. The output will normally be a SHA-1 hash output,

TLIST: is a ‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function sets a callback to be called when the peer’s
certificate chain is incomplete due a missing intermediate
certificate. The callback may provide the missing certificate for
use during verification.
The callback’s function prototype is defined in gnutls/x509.h as:
int (*callback)(gnutls_x509_trust_list_t list, const
gnutls_x509_crt_t cert, gnutls_x509_crt_t **issuers, unsigned int
*issuers_size);
If the callback function is provided then gnutls will call it
during the certificate verification procedure. The callback may
wish to use ‘gnutls_x509_crt_get_authority_info_access()’ to get a
URI from which to attempt to download the missing issuer
certificate, if available.
On a successful call, the callback shall allocate the ’issuers’
array with ‘gnutls_x509_crt_list_import2()’ . The ownership of
both the array and the elements is transferred to the caller and
thus the application does not need to maintain the memory after the
call.
The callback function should return 0 if the missing issuer
certificate for ’crt’ was properly populated and added to the
’issuers’, or non-zero to continue the certificate list
verification but with issuer as ‘NULL’ .

and return its status. The ‘voutput’ parameter will hold an OR’ed
sequence of ‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’ flags.
When a certificate chain of ‘cert_list_size’ with more than one
certificates is provided, the verification status will apply to the
first certificate in the chain that failed verification. The
verification process starts from the end of the chain (from CA to
end certificate). The first certificate in the chain must be the
end-certificate while the rest of the members may be sorted or not.
Additionally a certificate verification profile can be specified
from the ones in ‘gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t’ by
ORing the result of ‘GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS()’ to the
verification flags.
Additional verification parameters are possible via the ‘data’
types; the acceptable types are ‘GNUTLS_DT_DNS_HOSTNAME’ ,
‘GNUTLS_DT_IP_ADDRESS’ and ‘GNUTLS_DT_KEY_PURPOSE_OID’ . The
former accepts as data a null-terminated hostname, and the latter a
null-terminated object identifier (e.g., ‘GNUTLS_KP_TLS_WWW_SERVER’
). If a DNS hostname is provided then this function will compare
the hostname in the end certificate against the given. If names do
not match the ‘GNUTLS_CERT_UNEXPECTED_OWNER’ status flag will be
set. In addition it will consider certificates provided with
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt()’ .
If a key purpose OID is provided and the end-certificate contains
the extended key usage PKIX extension, it will be required to match
the provided OID or be marked for any purpose, otherwise
verification will fail with ‘GNUTLS_CERT_PURPOSE_MISMATCH’ status.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value. Note that verification failure
will not result to an error code, only ‘voutput’ will be updated.

with the provided name –see
‘gnutls_x509_trust_list_add_named_crt()’ . If a match is found the
certificate is considered valid. In addition to that this function
will also check CRLs. The ‘voutput’ parameter will hold an OR’ed
sequence of ‘gnutls_certificate_status_t’ flags.
Additionally a certificate verification profile can be specified
from the ones in ‘gnutls_certificate_verification_profiles_t’ by
ORing the result of ‘GNUTLS_PROFILE_TO_VFLAGS()’ to the
verification flags.

CRITICAL: output variable with critical flag, may be NULL.
DATA: will hold newly allocated buffer with extension data, may be
NULL
This function will return all information about the requested
extension in the OCSP response. The information returned is the
OID, the critical flag, and the data itself. The extension OID
will be stored as a string. Any of ‘oid’ , ‘critical’ , and ‘data’
may be NULL which means that the caller is not interested in
getting that information back.
The caller needs to deallocate memory by calling ‘gnutls_free()’ on
‘oid’ ->data and ‘data’ ->data.
Since 3.7.0 ‘oid’ ->size does not account for the terminating null
byte.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned. If you have reached
the last extension available
‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ will be returned.

This function will extract the name of the Basic OCSP Response in
the provided buffer. The name will be in the form
"C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz" as described in RFC2253. The output string
will be ASCII or UTF-8 encoded, depending on the certificate data.
If the responder ID is not a name but a hash, this function will
return zero and the ‘dn’ elements will be set to ‘NULL’ .
The caller needs to deallocate memory by calling ‘gnutls_free()’ on
‘dn’ ->data.
This function does not output a fully RFC4514 compliant string, if
that is required see ‘gnutls_ocsp_resp_get_responder2()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned. When no data exist it
will return success and set ‘dn’ elements to zero.

This function will extract the name of the Basic OCSP Response in
the provided buffer. The name will be in the form
"C=xxxx,O=yyyy,CN=zzzz" as described in RFC2253. The output string
will be ASCII or UTF-8 encoded, depending on the certificate data.
If the responder ID is not a name but a hash, this function will
return zero and the ‘dn’ elements will be set to ‘NULL’ .
The caller needs to deallocate memory by calling ‘gnutls_free()’ on
‘dn’ ->data.
When the flag ‘GNUTLS_X509_DN_FLAG_COMPAT’ is specified, the output
format will match the format output by previous to 3.5.6 versions
of GnuTLS which was not not fully RFC4514-compliant.
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error code is returned. When no data exist it
will return ‘GNUTLS_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ .

RESPONSE_TYPE_OID: newly allocated output buffer with response type
OID
RESPONSE: newly allocated output buffer with DER encoded response
This function will extract the response type OID in and the
response data from an OCSP response. Normally the
‘response_type_oid’ is always "1.3.6.1.5.5.7.48.1.1" which means
the ‘response’ should be decoded as a Basic OCSP Response, but
technically other response types could be used.
This function is typically only useful when you want to extract the
response type OID of an response for diagnostic purposes.
Otherwise ‘gnutls_ocsp_resp_import()’ will decode the basic OCSP
response part and the caller need not worry about that aspect.
Since 3.7.0 ‘response_type_oid’ ->size does not account for the
terminating null byte.

certificates, and there is no way to identify which key/certificate
pair you want. For this reason this function is useful for PKCS12
files that contain only one key/certificate pair and/or one CRL.
If the provided structure has encrypted fields but no password is
provided then this function returns ‘GNUTLS_E_DECRYPTION_FAILED’ .
Note that normally the chain constructed does not include self
signed certificates, to comply with TLS’ requirements. If,
however, the flag ‘GNUTLS_PKCS12_SP_INCLUDE_SELF_SIGNED’ is
specified then self signed certificates will be included in the
chain.

gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate
---------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_tpm_privkey_generate (gnutls_pk_algorithm_t PK,
unsigned int BITS, const char * SRK_PASSWORD, const char *
KEY_PASSWORD, gnutls_tpmkey_fmt_t FORMAT,

E.9 Abstract key API
====================
The following functions are to be used for abstract key handling. Their
prototypes lie in ‘gnutls/abstract.h’.
gnutls_certificate_set_key
--------------------------
-- Function: int gnutls_certificate_set_key
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t RES, const char ** NAMES,
int NAMES_SIZE, gnutls_pcert_st * PCERT_LIST, int
PCERT_LIST_SIZE, gnutls_privkey_t KEY)
RES: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
NAMES: is an array of DNS names belonging to the public-key (NULL
if none)
NAMES_SIZE: holds the size of the names list
PCERT_LIST: contains a certificate list (chain) or raw public-key
PCERT_LIST_SIZE: holds the size of the certificate list
KEY: is a ‘gnutls_privkey_t’ key corresponding to the first
public-key in pcert_list
This function sets a public/private key pair in the
gnutls_certificate_credentials_t type. The given public key may be
encapsulated in a certificate or can be given as a raw key. This
function may be called more than once, in case multiple key pairs
exist for the server. For clients that want to send more than
their own end- entity certificate (e.g., also an intermediate CA
cert), the full certificate chain must be provided in ‘pcert_list’
.
Note that the ‘key’ will become part of the credentials structure
and must not be deallocated. It will be automatically deallocated
when the ‘res’ structure is deinitialized.
If this function fails, the ‘res’ structure is at an undefined
state and it must not be reused to load other keys or certificates.
Note that, this function by default returns zero on success and a
negative value on error. Since 3.5.6, when the flag
‘GNUTLS_CERTIFICATE_API_V2’ is set using
‘gnutls_certificate_set_flags()’ it returns an index (greater or
equal to zero). That index can be used for other functions to
refer to the added key-pair.
Since GnuTLS 3.6.6 this function also handles raw public keys.
*Returns:* On success this functions returns zero, and otherwise a
negative value on error (see above for modifying that behavior).
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2
-----------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function2
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function2 * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function sets a callback to be called in order to retrieve the
certificate to be used in the handshake. The callback will take
control only if a certificate is requested by the peer.
The callback’s function prototype is: int
(*callback)(gnutls_session_t, const gnutls_datum_t* req_ca_dn, int
nreqs, const gnutls_pk_algorithm_t* pk_algos, int pk_algos_length,
gnutls_pcert_st** pcert, unsigned int *pcert_length,
gnutls_privkey_t * pkey);
‘req_ca_dn’ is only used in X.509 certificates. Contains a list
with the CA names that the server considers trusted. This is a
hint and typically the client should send a certificate that is
signed by one of these CAs. These names, when available, are DER
encoded. To get a more meaningful value use the function
‘gnutls_x509_rdn_get()’ .
‘pk_algos’ contains a list with server’s acceptable public key
algorithms. The certificate returned should support the server’s
given algorithms.
‘pcert’ should contain a single certificate and public key or a
list of them.
‘pcert_length’ is the size of the previous list.
‘pkey’ is the private key.
If the callback function is provided then gnutls will call it, in
the handshake, after the certificate request message has been
received. All the provided by the callback values will not be
released or modified by gnutls.
In server side pk_algos and req_ca_dn are NULL.
The callback function should set the certificate list to be sent,
and return 0 on success. If no certificate was selected then the
number of certificates should be set to zero. The value (-1)
indicates error and the handshake will be terminated. If both
certificates are set in the credentials and a callback is
available, the callback takes predence.
*Since:* 3.0
gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function3
-----------------------------------------
-- Function: void gnutls_certificate_set_retrieve_function3
(gnutls_certificate_credentials_t CRED,
gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function3 * FUNC)
CRED: is a ‘gnutls_certificate_credentials_t’ type.
FUNC: is the callback function
This function sets a callback to be called in order to retrieve the
certificate and OCSP responses to be used in the handshake. ‘func’
will be called only if the peer requests a certificate either
during handshake or during post-handshake authentication.
The callback’s function prototype is defined in ‘abstract.h’:
int gnutls_certificate_retrieve_function3( gnutls_session_t, const
struct gnutls_cert_retr_st *info, gnutls_pcert_st **certs, unsigned
int *certs_length, gnutls_ocsp_data_st **ocsp, unsigned int
*ocsp_length, gnutls_privkey_t *privkey, unsigned int *flags);
The info field of the callback contains: ‘req_ca_dn’ which is a
list with the CA names that the server considers trusted. This is
a hint and typically the client should send a certificate that is
signed by one of these CAs. These names, when available, are DER
encoded. To get a more meaningful value use the function
‘gnutls_x509_rdn_get()’ . ‘pk_algos’ contains a list with server’s
acceptable public key algorithms. The certificate returned should
support the server’s given algorithms.
The callback should fill-in the following values:
‘certs’ should contain an allocated list of certificates and public
keys. ‘certs_length’ is the size of the previous list. ‘ocsp’
should contain an allocated list of OCSP responses. ‘ocsp_length’
is the size of the previous list. ‘privkey’ is the private key.
If flags in the callback are set to ‘GNUTLS_CERT_RETR_DEINIT_ALL’
then all provided values must be allocated using ‘gnutls_malloc()’
, and will be released by gnutls; otherwise they will not be
touched by gnutls.
The callback function should set the certificate and OCSP response
list to be sent, and return 0 on success. If no certificates are
available, the ‘certs_length’ and ‘ocsp_length’ should be set to
zero. The return value (-1) indicates error and the handshake will
be terminated. If both certificates are set in the credentials and
a callback is available, the callback takes predence.
Raw public-keys: In case raw public-keys are negotiated as
certificate type, certificates that would normally hold the
public-key material are not available. In that case, ‘certs’
contains an allocated list with only the public key. Since there
is no certificate, there is also no certificate status. Therefore,
OCSP information should not be set.
*Since:* 3.6.3

PKEY: An initialized private key
ALGO: is one of the algorithms in ‘gnutls_pk_algorithm_t’ .
BITS: the size of the parameters to generate
FLAGS: Must be zero or flags from ‘gnutls_privkey_flags_t’ .
This function will generate a random private key. Note that this
function must be called on an initialized private key.
The flag ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_PROVABLE’ instructs the key
generation process to use algorithms like Shawe-Taylor (from FIPS
PUB186-4) which generate provable parameters out of a seed for RSA
and DSA keys. See ‘gnutls_privkey_generate2()’ for more
information.
Note that when generating an elliptic curve key, the curve can be
substituted in the place of the bits parameter using the
‘GNUTLS_CURVE_TO_BITS()’ macro. The input to the macro is any
curve from ‘gnutls_ecc_curve_t’ .
For DSA keys, if the subgroup size needs to be specified check the
‘GNUTLS_SUBGROUP_TO_BITS()’ macro.
It is recommended to do not set the number of ‘bits’ directly, use
‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ instead .
See also ‘gnutls_privkey_generate2()’ .
*Returns:* On success, ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned,
otherwise a negative error value.

PKEY: The private key
ALGO: is one of the algorithms in ‘gnutls_pk_algorithm_t’ .

DATA: Allow specifying ‘gnutls_keygen_data_st’ types such as the
seed to be used.
DATA_SIZE: The number of ‘data’ available.
This function will generate a random private key. Note that this
function must be called on an initialized private key.
The flag ‘GNUTLS_PRIVKEY_FLAG_PROVABLE’ instructs the key
generation process to use algorithms like Shawe-Taylor (from FIPS
PUB186-4) which generate provable parameters out of a seed for RSA
and DSA keys. On DSA keys the PQG parameters are generated using
the seed, while on RSA the two primes. To specify an explicit seed
(by default a random seed is used), use the ‘data’ with a
‘GNUTLS_KEYGEN_SEED’ type.
Note that when generating an elliptic curve key, the curve can be
substituted in the place of the bits parameter using the
‘GNUTLS_CURVE_TO_BITS()’ macro.
To export the generated keys in memory or in files it is
recommended to use the PKCS‘8’ form as it can handle all key types,
and can store additional parameters such as the seed, in case of
provable RSA or DSA keys. Generated keys can be exported in memory
using ‘gnutls_privkey_export_x509()’ , and then with
‘gnutls_x509_privkey_export2_pkcs8()’ .
If key generation is part of your application, avoid setting the
number of bits directly, and instead use
‘gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits()’ . That way the generated keys will
adapt to the security levels of the underlying GnuTLS library.

signature algorithm. This function is to be used for signature
algorithms like Ed25519 which cannot take pre-hashed data as input.

‘gnutls_pkcs11_privkey_init()’ apply to this object as well. In
versions of GnuTLS later than 3.5.11 the object is protected using
locks and a single ‘gnutls_privkey_t’ can be re-used by many
threads. However, for performance it is recommended to utilize one
object per key per thread.

since all the previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed request
will not be fully functional (e.g., for signature verification),
until it is exported an re-imported.

and in that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm
will be selected.
*Returns:* ‘GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS’ on success, otherwise a negative
error code. ‘GNUTLS_E_ASN1_VALUE_NOT_FOUND’ is returned if you
didn’t set all information in the certificate request (e.g., the

DIG: The message digest to use, ‘GNUTLS_DIG_SHA256’ is a safe
choice
FLAGS: must be 0
This function will sign the certificate with the issuer’s private
key, and will copy the issuer’s information into the certificate.
This must be the last step in a certificate generation since all
the previously set parameters are now signed.
A known limitation of this function is, that a newly-signed
certificate will not be fully functional (e.g., for signature
verification), until it is exported an re-imported.
After GnuTLS 3.6.1 the value of ‘dig’ may be ‘GNUTLS_DIG_UNKNOWN’ ,
and in that case, a suitable but reasonable for the key algorithm
will be selected.

Enables TCP Fast Open (TFO) for the specified TLS client session.
That means that TCP connection establishment and the transmission
of the first TLS client hello packet are combined. The peer’s
address must be specified in ‘connect_addr’ and ‘connect_addrlen’ ,
and the socket specified by ‘fd’ should not be connected.
TFO only works for TCP sockets of type AF_INET and AF_INET6. If
the OS doesn’t support TCP fast open this function will result to
gnutls using ‘connect()’ transparently during the first write.
*Note:* This function overrides all the transport callback
functions. If this is undesirable, TCP Fast Open must be
implemented on the user callback functions without calling this
function. When using this function, transport callbacks must not
be set, and ‘gnutls_transport_set_ptr()’ or
‘gnutls_transport_set_int()’ must not be called.
On GNU/Linux TFO has to be enabled at the system layer, that is in
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen, bit 0 has to be set.
This function has no effect on server sessions.
*Since:* 3.5.3

SECURE: true if the result is validated securely, false if
validation failed or the domain queried has no security info
BOGUS: if the result was not secure (secure = 0) due to a security
failure, and the result is due to a security failure, bogus is
true.
This function will fill in the TLSA (DANE) structure from the given
raw DNS record data. The ‘dane_data’ must be valid during the
lifetime of the query.
*Returns:* On success, ‘DANE_E_SUCCESS’ (0) is returned, otherwise
a negative error value.

Lookaside Validation).
dane_strerror
-------------
-- Function: const char * dane_strerror (int ERROR)

This function is similar to strerror. The difference is that it
accepts an error number returned by a gnutls function; In case of
an unknown error a descriptive string is sent instead of ‘NULL’ .
Error codes are always a negative error code.

.
VERIFY: An OR’ed list of ‘dane_verify_status_t’ .
This function will verify the given certificate chain against the
CA constrains and/or the certificate available via DANE. If no
information via DANE can be obtained the flag
‘DANE_VERIFY_NO_DANE_INFO’ is set. If a DNSSEC signature is not
available for the DANE record then the verify flag
‘DANE_VERIFY_NO_DNSSEC_DATA’ is set.
Due to the many possible options of DANE, there is no single threat
model countered. When notifying the user about DANE verification
results it may be better to mention: DANE verification did not
reject the certificate, rather than mentioning a successful DANE
verication.
Note that this function is designed to be run in addition to PKIX -
certificate chain - verification. To be run independently the
‘DANE_VFLAG_ONLY_CHECK_EE_USAGE’ flag should be specified; then the
function will check whether the key of the peer matches the key
advertized in the DANE entry.
*Returns:* a negative error code on error and ‘DANE_E_SUCCESS’ (0)
when the DANE entries were successfully parsed, irrespective of
whether they were verified (see ‘verify’ for that information). If
no usable entries were encountered
‘DANE_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ will be returned.

.
VERIFY: An OR’ed list of ‘dane_verify_status_t’ .
This is the low-level function of ‘dane_verify_crt()’ . See the
high level function for documentation.
This function does not perform any resolving, it utilizes cached
entries from ‘r’ .
*Returns:* a negative error code on error and ‘DANE_E_SUCCESS’ (0)
when the DANE entries were successfully parsed, irrespective of
whether they were verified (see ‘verify’ for that information). If
no usable entries were encountered
‘DANE_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ will be returned.
dane_verify_session_crt
-----------------------
-- Function: int dane_verify_session_crt (dane_state_t S,
gnutls_session_t SESSION, const char * HOSTNAME, const char *
PROTO, unsigned int PORT, unsigned int SFLAGS, unsigned int
VFLAGS, unsigned int * VERIFY)
S: A DANE state structure (may be NULL)

This function will verify session’s certificate chain against the
CA constrains and/or the certificate available via DANE. See
‘dane_verify_crt()’ for more information.
This will not verify the chain for validity; unless the DANE
verification is restricted to end certificates, this must be be
performed separately using ‘gnutls_certificate_verify_peers3()’ .
*Returns:* a negative error code on error and ‘DANE_E_SUCCESS’ (0)
when the DANE entries were successfully parsed, irrespective of
whether they were verified (see ‘verify’ for that information). If
no usable entries were encountered
‘DANE_E_REQUESTED_DATA_NOT_AVAILABLE’ will be returned.

of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
0. PREAMBLE
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
functional and useful document “free” in the sense of freedom: to
assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
with or without modifying it, either commercially or
noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the
author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
This License is a kind of “copyleft”, which means that derivative
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
license designed for free software.
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
that the software does. But this License is not limited to
software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We
recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
instruction or reference.
1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can
be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice
grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The
“Document”, below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member
of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as “you”. You accept
the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way
requiring permission under copyright law.
A “Modified Version” of the Document means any work containing the
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
A “Secondary Section” is a named appendix or a front-matter section
of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document’s overall
subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document
is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
regarding them.
The “Invariant Sections” are certain Secondary Sections whose
titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the
notice that says that the Document is released under this License.
If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it
is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may
contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify
any Invariant Sections then there are none.
The “Cover Texts” are certain short passages of text that are
listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
that says that the Document is released under this License. A
Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
be at most 25 words.
A “Transparent” copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
general public, that is suitable for revising the document
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed
of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely
available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text
formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats
suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise
Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has
been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by
readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if
used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not
“Transparent” is called “Opaque”.
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming
simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.
Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.
Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and
edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which
the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and
the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
processors for output purposes only.
The “Title Page” means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
works in formats which do not have any title page as such, “Title
Page” means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
work’s title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
The “publisher” means any person or entity that distributes copies
of the Document to the public.
A section “Entitled XYZ” means a named subunit of the Document
whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ
stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
“Acknowledgements”, “Dedications”, “Endorsements”, or “History”.)
To “Preserve the Title” of such a section when you modify the
Document means that it remains a section “Entitled XYZ” according
to this definition.
The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
which states that this License applies to the Document. These
Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
has no effect on the meaning of this License.
2. VERBATIM COPYING
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the
conditions in section 3.
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
and you may publicly display copies.
3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
the Document’s license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
front cover must present the full title with all words of the title
equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the
covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as
long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these
conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
adjacent pages.
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable
Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with
each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general
network-using public has access to download using public-standard
network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free
of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take
reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque
copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will
remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one
year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or
through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies,
to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
Document.
4. MODIFICATIONS
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the
Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing
distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever
possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in
the Modified Version:
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous
versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the
History section of the Document). You may use the same title
as a previous version if the original publisher of that
version gives permission.
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
from this requirement.
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
Modified Version, as the publisher.
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
adjacent to the other copyright notices.
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
the Addendum below.
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document’s
license notice.
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
I. Preserve the section Entitled “History”, Preserve its Title,
and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the
Title Page. If there is no section Entitled “History” in the
Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and
publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add
an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the
previous sentence.
J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
likewise the network locations given in the Document for
previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the
“History” section. You may omit a network location for a work
that was published at least four years before the Document
itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers
to gives permission.
K. For any section Entitled “Acknowledgements” or “Dedications”,
Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section
all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered
in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the
equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
M. Delete any section Entitled “Endorsements”. Such a section
may not be included in the Modified Version.
N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
“Endorsements” or to conflict in title with any Invariant
Section.
O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate
some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their
titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version’s
license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other
section titles.
You may add a section Entitled “Endorsements”, provided it contains
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
parties—for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of
a standard.
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of
the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage
of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document
already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added
by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on
behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old
one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added
the old one.
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
You may combine the Document with other documents released under
this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all
of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
their Warranty Disclaimers.
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
combined work.
In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
“History” in the various original documents, forming one section
Entitled “History”; likewise combine any sections Entitled
“Acknowledgements”, and any sections Entitled “Dedications”. You
must delete all sections Entitled “Endorsements.”
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
documents released under this License, and replace the individual
copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents
in all other respects.
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
document.
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a
storage or distribution medium, is called an “aggregate” if the
copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
legal rights of the compilation’s users beyond what the individual
works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
of the entire aggregate, the Document’s Cover Texts may be placed
on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
the whole aggregate.
8. TRANSLATION
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
include the original English version of this License and the
original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a
disagreement between the translation and the original version of
this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
prevail.
If a section in the Document is Entitled “Acknowledgements”,
“Dedications”, or “History”, the requirement (section 4) to
Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
actual title.
9. TERMINATION
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void,
and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from
that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days
after your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate
the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you
under this License. If your rights have been terminated and not
permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the
same material does not give you any rights to use it.
10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
version of this License “or any later version” applies to it, you
have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
that specified version or of any later version that has been
published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the
Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may
choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Document specifies that a proxy can
decide which future versions of this License can be used, that
proxy’s public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
11. RELICENSING
“Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site” (or “MMC Site”) means any
World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A
public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.
A “Massive Multiauthor Collaboration” (or “MMC”) contained in the
site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
site.
“CC-BY-SA” means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
published by that same organization.
“Incorporate” means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
in part, as part of another Document.
An MMC is “eligible for relicensing” if it is licensed under this
License, and if all works that were first published under this
License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently
incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover
texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior
to November 1, 2008.
The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the
site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1,
2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
====================================================
To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
notices just after the title page:
Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
Free Documentation License''.
If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover Texts,
replace the “with...Texts.” line with this:
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
being LIST.
If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
situation.
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free
software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit
their use in free software.
