Description Bob Relyea 2020-08-20 23:16:40 UTC

FIPS guidance now requires self-tests for our kdfs. It also requires self-tests for cmac which we didn't have in the cmac patch.

Currently only one test per kdf is necessary. Specifially for SP-800-108, only
one of the three flavors are needed (counter, feedback, or pipeline). HKDF is currently not included in FIPS, but is on track to be included, so hkdf should be included in this patch.

KDF's:
SP-800-108 (softoken/kbkdf.c)
pbkdf (softoken/lowpbe.c)
IKE (softoken/sftkike.c)
TLS KDF (freebl/tlsprfalg.c)
HDKDF (softoken/pkcs11c.c)

CMAC: (freebl/cmac.c)

Comment 2 Bob Relyea 2020-08-20 23:20:09 UTC

Proposed AC: Sanity Only.

Selftests will either succeed or fail. If they fail, then and tests in FIPS mode will fail (including tests in all.sh).

Comment 3 Bob Relyea 2020-08-20 23:21:41 UTC

Ivan, could you review the AC and give the QA ack if you are happy with it?
