ESP-TLS

Overview

The ESP-TLS component provides a simplified API interface for accessing the commonly used TLS functionality. It supports common scenarios like CA certification validation, SNI, ALPN negotiation, non-blocking connection among others. All the configuration can be specified in the esp_tls_cfg_t data structure. Once done, TLS communication can be conducted using the following APIs:

esp_tls_init(): for initializing the TLS connection handle.

esp_tls_conn_new_sync(): for opening a new blocking TLS connection.

esp_tls_conn_new_async(): for opening a new non-blocking TLS connection.

esp_tls_conn_read(): for reading from the connection.

esp_tls_conn_write(): for writing into the connection.

esp_tls_conn_destroy(): for freeing up the connection.

Any application layer protocol like HTTP1, HTTP2 etc can be executed on top of this layer.

Application Example

Simple HTTPS example that uses ESP-TLS to establish a secure socket connection: protocols/https_request.

The ESP-TLS component has a file esp-tls/esp_tls.h which contain the public API headers for the component. Internally ESP-TLS component uses one of the two SSL/TLS Libraries between mbedtls and wolfssl for its operation. API specific to mbedtls are present in esp-tls/private_include/esp_tls_mbedtls.h and API specific to wolfssl are present in esp-tls/private_include/esp_tls_wolfssl.h.

TLS Server verification

The ESP-TLS provides multiple options for TLS server verification on the client side. The ESP-TLS client can verify the server by validating the peer's server certificate or with the help of pre-shared keys. The user should select only one of the following options in the esp_tls_cfg_t structure for TLS server verification. If no option is selected then client will return a fatal error by default at the time of the TLS connection setup.

cacert_buf and cacert_bytes: The CA certificate can be provided in a buffer to the esp_tls_cfg_t structure. The ESP-TLS will use the CA certificate present in the buffer to verify the server. The following variables in esp_tls_cfg_t structure must be set.

cacert_buf - pointer to the buffer which contains the CA cert.

cacert_bytes - size of the CA certificate in bytes.

use_global_ca_store: The global_ca_store can be initialized and set at once. Then it can be used to verify the server for all the ESP-TLS connections which have set use_global_ca_store = true in their respective esp_tls_cfg_t structure. See API Reference section below on information regarding different API used for initializing and setting up the global_ca_store.

crt_bundle_attach: The ESP x509 Certificate Bundle API provides an easy way to include a bundle of custom x509 root certificates for TLS server verification. More details can be found at ESP x509 Certificate Bundle

psk_hint_key: To use pre-shared keys for server verification, CONFIG_ESP_TLS_PSK_VERIFICATION should be enabled in the ESP-TLS menuconfig. Then the pointer to PSK hint and key should be provided to the esp_tls_cfg_t structure. The ESP-TLS will use the PSK for server verification only when no other option regarding the server verification is selected.

skip server verification: This is an insecure option provided in the ESP-TLS for testing purpose. The option can be set by enabling CONFIG_ESP_TLS_INSECURE and CONFIG_ESP_TLS_SKIP_SERVER_CERT_VERIFY in the ESP-TLS menuconfig. When this option is enabled the ESP-TLS will skip server verification by default when no other options for server verification are selected in the esp_tls_cfg_t structure. WARNING:Enabling this option comes with a potential risk of establishing a TLS connection with a server which has a fake identity, provided that the server certificate is not provided either through API or other mechanism like ca_store etc.

ESP-TLS Server cert selection hook

The ESP-TLS component provides an option to set the server cert selection hook when using the mbedTLS stack. This provides an ability to configure and use a certificate selection callback during server handshake, to select a certificate to present to the client based on the TLS extensions supplied in the client hello (alpn, sni, etc). To enable this feature, please enable CONFIG_ESP_TLS_SERVER_CERT_SELECT_HOOK in the ESP-TLS menuconfig. The certificate selection callback can be configured in the esp_tls_cfg_t structure as follows:

int cert_selection_callback(mbedtls_ssl_context *ssl)
{
    /* Code that the callback should execute */
    return 0;
}

esp_tls_cfg_t cfg = {
    cert_select_cb = cert_section_callback,
};

Underlying SSL/TLS Library Options

The ESP-TLS component has an option to use mbedtls or wolfssl as their underlying SSL/TLS library. By default only mbedtls is available and is used, wolfssl SSL/TLS library is available publicly at https://github.com/espressif/esp-wolfssl. The repository provides wolfssl component in binary format, it also provides few examples which are useful for understanding the API. Please refer the repository README.md for information on licensing and other options. Please see below option for using wolfssl in your project.

备注

As the library options are internal to ESP-TLS, switching the libraries will not change ESP-TLS specific code for a project.

How to use wolfssl with ESP-IDF

There are two ways to use wolfssl in your project

Directly add wolfssl as a component in your project with following three commands.:

(First change directory (cd) to your project directory)
mkdir components
cd components
git clone https://github.com/espressif/esp-wolfssl.git

Add wolfssl as an extra component in your project.

Download wolfssl with:

git clone https://github.com/espressif/esp-wolfssl.git

Include esp-wolfssl in ESP-IDF with setting EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS in CMakeLists.txt of your project as done in wolfssl/examples. For reference see Optional Project variables in build-system.

After above steps, you will have option to choose wolfssl as underlying SSL/TLS library in configuration menu of your project as follows:

idf.py menuconfig -> ESP-TLS -> choose SSL/TLS Library -> mbedtls/wolfssl

Comparison between mbedtls and wolfssl

The following table shows a typical comparison between wolfssl and mbedtls when protocols/https_request example (which has server authentication) was run with both SSL/TLS libraries and with all respective configurations set to default. (mbedtls IN_CONTENT length and OUT_CONTENT length were set to 16384 bytes and 4096 bytes respectively)

Digital Signature with ESP-TLS

ESP-TLS provides support for using the Digital Signature (DS) with ESP32-C3. Use of the DS for TLS is supported only when ESP-TLS is used with mbedTLS (default stack) as its underlying SSL/TLS stack. For more details on Digital Signature, please refer to the Digital Signature Documentation. The technical details of Digital Signature such as how to calculate private key parameters can be found in ESP32-C3 Technical Reference Manual > Digital Signature (DS) [PDF]. The DS peripheral must be configured before it can be used to perform Digital Signature, see Configure the DS Peripheral in Digital Signature.

The DS peripheral must be initlized with the required encrypted private key parameters (obtained when the DS peripheral is configured). ESP-TLS internally initializes the DS peripheral when provided with the required DS context (DS parameters). Please see the below code snippet for passing the DS context to esp-tls context. The DS context passed to the esp-tls context should not be freed till the TLS connection is deleted.

#include "esp_tls.h"
esp_ds_data_ctx_t *ds_ctx;
/* initialize ds_ctx with encrypted private key parameters, which can be read from the nvs or
provided through the application code */
esp_tls_cfg_t cfg = {
    .clientcert_buf = /* the client cert */,
    .clientcert_bytes = /* length of the client cert */,
    /* other configurations options */
    .ds_data = (void *)ds_ctx,
};

备注

When using Digital Signature for the TLS connection, along with the other required params, only the client cert (clientcert_buf) and the DS params (ds_data) are required and the client key (clientkey_buf) can be set to NULL.

An example of mutual authentication with the DS peripheral can be found at ssl mutual auth which internally uses (ESP-TLS) for the TLS connection.
