Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
When using OAEP pkcs11 engine is sending incorrect CK_RSA_PKCS_OAEP_PARAM params: 0x00UL for the field "source" instead of 0x01UL (CKZ_DATA_SPECIFIED)
See section 2.1.7 of PKCS #11 Cryptographic Token Interface Current Mechanisms Specification Version 3.0
https://docs.oasis-open.org/pkcs11/pkcs11-curr/v3.0/os/pkcs11-curr-v3.0-os.html#_Toc30061136
A strict HSM (Thales Luna) rejects this with CKR_MECHANISM_INVALID
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssl-pkcs11-0.4.10-3.el8.x86_64
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Peform OAEP decryption
openssl pkeyutl -decrypt -inkey 'pkcs11:token=mytoken;object=mykey' -keyform engine -engine pkcs11
-pkeyopt rsa_padding_mode:oaep
-pkeyopt rsa_oaep_md:sha384
-pkeyopt rsa_mgf1_md:sha384
-in ciphertext -out recovered
2.
3.
Actual results:
CKR_MECHANISM_INVALID
Expected results:
Successful decryption
Additional info:
The params structure is 40 bytes long
Incorrect:
60020000000000000300000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Correct
60020000000000000300000000000000010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The correct params are sent by Thales gem engine and python_pkcs11.
The incorrect params are sent by openssl-pkcs11
Its possible (not verified) that softhsm2 - used in the development of openssl-pkcs11 - is more lenient in parsing this field so the "bug" is not detected
Also, please open a customer support case with Red Hat support to make sure the issue is properly prioritized. Without that, we can not guarantee the RHEL update.
