Yes, that certainly sounds plausible. I'll inform our developers about your findings.

RE: Cannot read full CA certificate

Hi Didrik,

Thank you for your help.

It's a self signed certificate generated by openssl. It's just a regular x509 certificate, nothing fancy about it.

I took a deeper look at at_cmd file and it seems that the parser confuses the certificate string with the AT "OK" string. The certificate stops right before the "OK" characters. What happens is as follows:

- The modem returns the full certificate (at_cmd.c line 146)

- at_cmd calculates the payload_len with get_return_code (at_cmd.c 177)

- get_return_code calculates the length based on the position of the "OK" or "ERROR" response

- get_return_code miscalculates the length of the response because strstr finds the wrongs "OK" (at_cmd.c 73)

get_return_code should try to find the last "OK" or "ERROR" not the first.

Best regards,

Vlad

Hi,

Where does the certificate come from?

I have seen a similar case before, and then the issue was with the certificate itself.

I also see the same behavior, but when I enable more logging, particularly in the at_cmd library, I see that the full certificate is read out of the modem:

OK

But, for some reason, the full certificate is not forwarded to the modem_key_mgmt library. The same behavior is also seen in the AT host library.

I will continue to investigate why the full certificate is not forwarded to the modem_key_mgmt library.

Best regards,

Didrik
