Re: Not able to perform FIPS self-tests

Have you considered using the provided for this: OSSL_PROVIDER_self_test()?

Hello All,

I’m trying to execute self-tests that FIPS runs after installation manually by calling the APIs. I’m using code from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/7cce994d3e57345ba729388b9321d9bf8b661b4f/providers/fips/self_test_kats.c but I’m getting NULL when I’m trying to fetch the encryption algorithm. Is there a way to perform self-tests that FIPS runs after installation because I did not find any code in fipsinstall.c where it is directly calling the APIs.

int self_test_digest(const ST_KAT_DIGEST *t, OSSL_SELF_TEST *st, OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx)

{

    int ok = 0;

    unsigned char out[EVP_MAX_MD_SIZE];

    unsigned int out_len = 0;

    EVP_MD_CTX *ctx = EVP_MD_CTX_new();

    EVP_MD *md = EVP_MD_fetch(libctx, t->algorithm, NULL);

    OSSL_SELF_TEST_onbegin(st, OSSL_SELF_TEST_TYPE_KAT_DIGEST, t->desc);

    if (ctx == NULL)

    {syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "ctx NULL"); goto err;}

    if (md == NULL)

    {syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "md is NULL"); goto err;}    //  <-------------------  This is getting failed!

    if (!EVP_DigestInit_ex(ctx, md, NULL))

    {syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "digest failed"); goto err;}

    if (!EVP_DigestUpdate(ctx, sha1_pt, t->pt_len))

    {syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "digest update failed"); goto err;}

    if (!EVP_DigestFinal(ctx, out, &out_len))

    {syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "digest final failed"); goto err;}

    /* Optional corruption */

    OSSL_SELF_TEST_oncorrupt_byte(st, out);

    for (int i=0; i < (int)t->expected_len; i++)

   {syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "%x", out[i]);}

    if (out_len != t->expected_len

            || memcmp(out, sha1_digest, out_len) != 0)

        goto err;

    ok = 1;

err:

    EVP_MD_free(md);

    EVP_MD_CTX_free(ctx);

    OSSL_SELF_TEST_onend(st, ok);

    return ok;

}

static int self_test_digests(OSSL_LIB_CTX *libctx)

{

    OSSL_SELF_TEST *st = NULL;

    st = OSSL_SELF_TEST_new(SelfTestCb, NULL);

    if (st == NULL)

        syslog(LOG_NOTICE, "OSSL_SELF_TEST_new failed");

    int i, ret = 1;

    for (i = 0; i < (int)OSSL_NELEM(st_kat_digest_tests); ++i) {

        if (!self_test_digest(&st_kat_digest_tests[i], st, libctx))

            ret = 0;

    }

    return ret;

}

if (!EVP_default_properties_enable_fips(libctx,1))

{

                ...

}

self_test_digests(libctx);

Thanks,

Ashish
