https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/42504 aligned RSA private key checks, but I missed the public key ones. We have two different sets of RSA public key checks right now. One in the parser just checks for e = 1 and even e. The other, when using the key, checks for overly large e and n. Align the two. Now parsing RSA public keys calls RSA_check_key and the extra checks on e are added to RSA_check_key. Note RSA private key parsing already called RSA_check_key. The consequences are: First, RSA public keys with large n, large e, or n < e will be rejected at parse time. Previously, they would be parsed but all operations on them would fail. This aligns with our existing behavior for parsing private keys. Second, operations on RSA public keys with even e will fail. They already failed to parse, but it was possible to manually construct such a key. Previously, operations wouldn't explicitly fail, but they wouldn't do anything useful because even exponents are not invertible. (Encrypting would produce something undecryptable and the private key would have a hard time reliably producing signatures we'd accept.) There is no change to RSA private keys with even e. Those would already fail the (e, d) consistency check and the fault check. Third, operations on RSA public keys with e = 1 will fail. They already failed to parse, but it was possible to manually construct such a key and "verify" signatures or "encrypt" messages. However, with e = 1, those operations are no-ops. Finally, RSA private keys with e = d = 1 will be rejected at parse and use. This is the only case that affects private keys because e = d = 1 are inverses, just pointless. Uses paired with RSA public key parsing (e.g. our TLS library checks consistency with a certificate public key) are not affected. Those already rejected such keys because we rejected them in the public key parser. This CL aligns the private half. This doesn't close https://crbug.com/boringssl/316, but we won't be able to resolve that without a consistent story for what keys are valid. Update-Note: See above.
