ESP x509 Certificate Bundle
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
The ESP x509 Certificate Bundle API provides an easy way to include a bundle of custom x509 root certificates for TLS server verification.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The bundle is currently not available when using WolfSSL.
|
|
|
|
The bundle comes with the complete list of root certificates from Mozilla's NSS root certificate store. Using the gen_crt_bundle.py python utility the certificates' subject name and public key are stored in a file and embedded in the {IDF_TARGET_NAME} binary.
|
|
|
|
When generating the bundle you may choose between:
|
|
|
|
* The full root certificate bundle from Mozilla, containing more than 130 certificates. The current bundle was updated Tue Jan 10 04:12:06 2023 GMT.
|
|
* A pre-selected filter list of the name of the most commonly used root certificates, reducing the amount of certificates to around 41 while still having around 90% absolute usage coverage and 99% market share coverage according to SSL certificate authorities statistics.
|
|
|
|
In addition, it is possible to specify a path to a certificate file or a directory containing certificates which then will be added to the generated bundle.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Trusting all root certificates means the list will have to be updated if any of the certificates are retracted. This includes removing them from ``cacrt_all.pem``.
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Most configuration is done through menuconfig. CMake will generate the bundle according to the configuration and embed it.
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`CONFIG_MBEDTLS_CERTIFICATE_BUNDLE`: automatically build and attach the bundle.
|
|
* :ref:`CONFIG_MBEDTLS_DEFAULT_CERTIFICATE_BUNDLE`: decide which certificates to include from the complete root list.
|
|
* :ref:`CONFIG_MBEDTLS_CUSTOM_CERTIFICATE_BUNDLE_PATH`: specify the path of any additional certificates to embed in the bundle.
|
|
|
|
To enable the bundle when using ESP-TLS simply pass the function pointer to the bundle attach function:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
esp_tls_cfg_t cfg = {
|
|
.crt_bundle_attach = esp_crt_bundle_attach,
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
This is done to avoid embedding the certificate bundle unless activated by the user.
|
|
|
|
If using mbedTLS directly then the bundle may be activated by directly calling the attach function during the setup process:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
|
|
|
mbedtls_ssl_config conf;
|
|
mbedtls_ssl_config_init(&conf);
|
|
|
|
esp_crt_bundle_attach(&conf);
|
|
|
|
|

Generating the List of Root Certificates
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
The list of root certificates comes from Mozilla's NSS root certificate store, which can be found `here <https://wiki.mozilla.org/CA/Included_Certificates>`_
|
|
|
|
The list can be downloaded and created by running the script ``mk-ca-bundle.pl`` that is distributed as a part of `curl <https://github.com/curl/curl>`_.
|
|
Another alternative would be to download the finished list directly from the curl website: `CA certificates extracted from Mozilla <https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html>`_
|
|
|
|
The common certificates bundle were made by selecting the authorities with a market share of more than 1 % from w3tech's `SSL Survey <https://w3techs.com/technologies/overview/ssl_certificate>`_.
|
|
|
|
These authorities were then used to pick the names of the certificates for the filter list, `cmn_crt_authorities.csv`, from `this list <https://ccadb-public.secure.force.com/mozilla/IncludedCACertificateReportPEMCSV>`_ provided by Mozilla.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updating the Certificate Bundle
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The bundle is embedded into the app and can be updated along with the app by an OTA update. If you want to include a more up-to-date bundle than the bundle currently included in ESP-IDF, then the certificate list can be downloaded from Mozilla as described in :ref:`updating_bundle`.

Application Example
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
Simple HTTPS example that uses ESP-TLS to establish a secure socket connection using the certificate bundle with two custom certificates added for verification: :example:`protocols/https_x509_bundle`.
|
|
|
|
HTTPS example that uses ESP-TLS and the default bundle: :example:`protocols/https_request`.
|
|
|
|
HTTPS example that uses mbedTLS and the default bundle: :example:`protocols/https_mbedtls`.
