Description

OpenSSL compatibility for libodbc.

  • VERIFY_NONE by default when WOLFSSL_VERIFY_NONE_DEFAULT is enabled
  • Added constant and macro functions

Fixes zd#21884

Testing

Integration test with:

[ODBC application]
↓ unixODBC (libodbc.2)
├─→ psqlodbcw.so ─→ libpq.5.dylib ─┐
└─→ libtdsodbc.so ─────────┴─→ libwolfssl.44.dylib

Checklist

  • added tests
  • updated/added doxygen
  • updated appropriate READMEs
  • Updated manual and documentation

Findings not tied to a diff line

SSL_R_UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL / WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER / UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL numeric value changed

File: wolfssl/openssl/ssl.h:1748-1753, wolfssl/openssl/err.h:47-49
Function: N/A (macros)
Severity: Medium

These three pre-existing public compat macros were changed from expanding to VERSION_ERROR (a negative wolfSSL internal error enum) to OpenSSL numeric reason codes (WOLFSSL_SSL_R_UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL=252, WOLFSSL_SSL_R_WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER=267, WOLFSSL_SSL_R_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL=258). This is more OpenSSL-accurate, but it is a behavior change: any existing application that compared these macros against wolfSSL's internally reported error code (VERSION_ERROR, e.g. from wolfSSL_get_error/SSL_get_error) will no longer match, because wolfSSL still reports VERSION_ERROR internally, not 252/267/258. I confirmed there are no internal src/*.c or tests/*.c users of these specific macros (tests compare against VERSION_ERROR directly), so the build and current tests are unaffected, but downstream consumers relying on the old mapping would silently break.

Recommendation: Confirm this value change is intended and note it as a compatibility change in the PR/changelog. If wolfSSL's error surface (ERR_get_error/ERR_GET_REASON) does not translate internal VERSION_ERROR into these OpenSSL reason codes, apps checking reason == SSL_R_WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER will never match - verify the intended consumer (libodbc/libtds) actually reads these as raw constants and not via wolfSSL's error queue.

BIO compat stubs have latent multi-use hazards (fixed index, app_data aliasing)

File: wolfssl/openssl/bio.h:196, wolfssl/openssl/ssl.h:1771-1774
Function: wolfSSL_BIO_get_new_index
Severity: Medium

Two BIO compat shims work for a single custom BIO but are unsafe if used more than once: (1) wolfSSL_BIO_get_new_index() always returns the constant 1000 - in OpenSSL each call returns a distinct index, so an app that registers two custom BIO types would get identical type values and collide. (2) BIO_get_app_data/BIO_set_app_data are mapped onto wolfSSL_BIO_get_data/wolfSSL_BIO_set_data, which is the SAME storage slot that a custom BIO method already uses for its method-private data. In OpenSSL these are two independent slots; collapsing them means an app that uses both BIO_set_data (method state) and BIO_set_app_data (app state) on the same BIO will overwrite one with the other. The wolfSSL_BIO_meth_get_* getters returning NULL and set_callback_ctrl being a no-op are acceptable documented stubs.

Recommendation: Keep for the narrow libodbc/libtds use, but document the single-custom-BIO limitation in the header comment. If feasible, back get_new_index with a static incrementing counter, and keep app_data in a separate slot from method data to avoid silent corruption when both are used.

@kojo1 can you rebase to latest master? That might resolve the CI issues
