I pushed an update to #DOStodon (the #Mastodon client for MS-DOS):

- Updated #curl to 8.13.0
- Updated #mbedTLS to 3.6.3
- Fixed #win32 version (works on #WinXP or newer), DLLs were missing

Screenshot is showing the win32 version running on Win10.

🎉 Wow, someone finally made Mbed-TLS work on a vintage Macintosh OS, because who doesn't need cutting-edge #encryption on their 30-year-old computer? 🚀 Meanwhile, GitHub's just over here, throwing #buzzwords around like "Copilot" and "Codespaces," hoping we forget we're still waiting for AI to write code that *actually* works. 😜

A port of Mbed-TLS for the Classic Macintosh OS 7/8/9

#mbedTLS 3.6.3 (#LTS) has been released (#TrustedFirmware / #ARM / #mbed / #TLS / #DTLS / #PolarSSL / #SSL / #Security) https://www.trustedfirmware.org/projects/mbed-tls/

#mbedTLS 2.28.10 (old #LTS) has been released (#TrustedFirmware / #ARM / #mbed / #TLS / #DTLS / #PolarSSL / #SSL / #Security) https://www.trustedfirmware.org/projects/mbed-tls/

I updated #mbedTLS and #curl in #DOjS. This one took a lot longer than I expected because curl dropped Makefile.mk builds and I had to switch to #CMake or #autconf.
I went with CMake, but had to work around some weird problems.

#MSDOS and #Linux build are already green again, I'll tackle #win32 later...

An #mbedTLS bug I reported in 2016 was now in 2025 published as a CVE.

Better late than never I guess!

My 2024 #GitHub #recap:

- Two #DOjS releases and a #win32 port

- A new release of #jSH

- Contributed #DJGPP patches to #mbedTLS and #jasper

- Updated my #BuildRoot GeodeLX repo

- Updated DOSQLite (#SQLite for MS-DOS)

- 11 Updates to #DOStodon (#MastodonClient for MS-DOS)

- Three updates to #httpDOS (#HTTPS server for MS-DOS)

Today's bug is an `mbedtls` bug: https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/issues/9814

There `mbedtls` used uninitialized data in `HMAC` code. The bug is exposed by `gcc-15` optimization to initialize less when handling unions in code like:

union {
int dummy;
struct { int fs[4]; } s;
} v = { 0 };
return v.s.fs[3];

`gcc-14` used to always return `0` here. `gcc-15` returns garbage.

I wrote a few extra words at https://trofi.github.io/posts/328-c-union-init-and-gcc-15.html to look at the breakage mechanics.

I pushed an update to #DOStodon (the #Mastodon client for MS-DOS):

- Updated #curl to 8.8.0
- Updated #mbedTLS to 3.6.0
- Added support for NOISE.SYS

If you want to try the #Linux version check out the compilation instructions linked in the README

I just released v0.0.3 of #httpDOS, a #TLS enabled #webserver for #MSDOS (source and binaries)

https://github.com/SuperIlu/httpDOS

I improved support for the noise.sys RNG source.

#RetroComputing #FreeDOS #DJGPP #HTTPS #mbedTLS

did a testrun on upgrading my projects to #mbedTLS 3.x

#curl 8.1.0 + #mbedTLS 2.28.3:
986706 bytes codesize

#curl 8.8.0 + #mbedTLS 3.6.0:
1208980 bytes codesize

that is a massive plus of 222274 bytes! 🥴

I just released v0.0.2 of #httpDOS, a #TLS enabled #webserver for #MSDOS (source and binaries)

https://github.com/SuperIlu/httpDOS

I updated #mbedTLS from 2.28.3 to 2.28.8. This release is untested as I'm on vacation and a lazy bum 😂

Note to self: When you update #mbedTLS it is of uttermost importance to keep the modified config.h or else #DOjS / #DOStodon will crash and you will search for the reason 😋
