| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| SSL_CTX_set_options() adds the options set via bitmask in B<options> to B<ctx>. |
| Options already set before are not cleared! |
| |
| SSL_set_options() adds the options set via bitmask in B<options> to B<ssl>. |
| Options already set before are not cleared! |
| |
| SSL_CTX_clear_options() clears the options set via bitmask in B<options> |
| to B<ctx>. |
| |
| SSL_clear_options() clears the options set via bitmask in B<options> to B<ssl>. |
| |
| SSL_CTX_get_options() returns the options set for B<ctx>. |
| |
| SSL_get_options() returns the options set for B<ssl>. |
| |
| SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() indicates whether the peer supports |
| secure renegotiation. |
| Note, this is implemented via a macro. |
| |
| =head1 NOTES |
| |
| The behaviour of the SSL library can be changed by setting several options. |
| The options are coded as bitmasks and can be combined by a bitwise B<or> |
| operation (|). |
| |
| SSL_CTX_set_options() and SSL_set_options() affect the (external) |
| protocol behaviour of the SSL library. The (internal) behaviour of |
| the API can be changed by using the similar |
| L<SSL_CTX_set_mode(3)> and SSL_set_mode() functions. |
| |
| During a handshake, the option settings of the SSL object are used. When |
| a new SSL object is created from a context using SSL_new(), the current |
| option setting is copied. Changes to B<ctx> do not affect already created |
| SSL objects. SSL_clear() does not affect the settings. |
| |
| The following B<bug workaround> options are available: |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_SSLREF2_REUSE_CERT_TYPE_BUG |
| |
| ... |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_MICROSOFT_BIG_SSLV3_BUFFER |
| |
| ... |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_SAFARI_ECDHE_ECDSA_BUG |
| |
| Don't prefer ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers when the client appears to be Safari on OS X. |
| OS X 10.8..10.8.3 has broken support for ECDHE-ECDSA ciphers. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_SSLEAY_080_CLIENT_DH_BUG |
| |
| ... |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_TLS_D5_BUG |
| |
| ... |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS |
| |
| Disables a countermeasure against a SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol |
| vulnerability affecting CBC ciphers, which cannot be handled by some |
| broken SSL implementations. This option has no effect for connections |
| using other ciphers. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_TLSEXT_PADDING |
| |
| Adds a padding extension to ensure the ClientHello size is never between |
| 256 and 511 bytes in length. This is needed as a workaround for some |
| implementations. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_ALL |
| |
| All of the above bug workarounds. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| It is usually safe to use B<SSL_OP_ALL> to enable the bug workaround |
| options if compatibility with somewhat broken implementations is |
| desired. |
| |
| The following B<modifying> options are available: |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_TLS_ROLLBACK_BUG |
| |
| Disable version rollback attack detection. |
| |
| During the client key exchange, the client must send the same information |
| about acceptable SSL/TLS protocol levels as during the first hello. Some |
| clients violate this rule by adapting to the server's answer. (Example: |
| the client sends a SSLv2 hello and accepts up to SSLv3.1=TLSv1, the server |
| only understands up to SSLv3. In this case the client must still use the |
| same SSLv3.1=TLSv1 announcement. Some clients step down to SSLv3 with respect |
| to the server's answer and violate the version rollback protection.) |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE |
| |
| Always create a new key when using temporary/ephemeral DH parameters |
| (see L<SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh_callback(3)>). |
| This option must be used to prevent small subgroup attacks, when |
| the DH parameters were not generated using "strong" primes |
| (e.g. when using DSA-parameters, see L<dhparam(1)>). |
| If "strong" primes were used, it is not strictly necessary to generate |
| a new DH key during each handshake but it is also recommended. |
| B<SSL_OP_SINGLE_DH_USE> should therefore be enabled whenever |
| temporary/ephemeral DH parameters are used. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_EPHEMERAL_RSA |
| |
| This option is no longer implemented and is treated as no op. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE |
| |
| When choosing a cipher, use the server's preferences instead of the client |
| preferences. When not set, the SSL server will always follow the clients |
| preferences. When set, the SSL/TLS server will choose following its |
| own preferences. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK_1 |
| |
| ... |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_PKCS1_CHECK_2 |
| |
| ... |
| |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3, SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1, SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1, |
| SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2, SSL_OP_NO_DTLSv1, SSL_OP_NO_DTLSv1_2 |
| |
| These options turn off the SSLv3, TLSv1, TLSv1.1 or TLSv1.2 protocol |
| versions with TLS or the DTLSv1, DTLSv1.2 versions with DTLS, |
| respectively. |
| As of OpenSSL 1.1.0, these options are deprecated, use |
| L<SSL_CTX_set_min_proto_version(3)> and |
| L<SSL_CTX_set_max_proto_version(3)> instead. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION |
| |
| When performing renegotiation as a server, always start a new session |
| (i.e., session resumption requests are only accepted in the initial |
| handshake). This option is not needed for clients. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_NO_TICKET |
| |
| Normally clients and servers will, where possible, transparently make use |
| of RFC4507bis tickets for stateless session resumption. |
| |
| If this option is set this functionality is disabled and tickets will |
| not be used by clients or servers. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION |
| |
| Allow legacy insecure renegotiation between OpenSSL and unpatched clients or |
| servers. See the B<SECURE RENEGOTIATION> section for more details. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT |
| |
| Allow legacy insecure renegotiation between OpenSSL and unpatched servers |
| B<only>: this option is currently set by default. See the |
| B<SECURE RENEGOTIATION> section for more details. |
| |
| =item SSL_OP_NO_ENCRYPT_THEN_MAC |
| |
| Normally clients and servers will transparently attempt to negotiate the |
| RFC7366 Encrypt-then-MAC option on TLS and DTLS connection. |
| |
| If this option is set, Encrypt-then-MAC is disabled. Clients will not |
| propose, and servers will not accept the extension. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| =head1 SECURE RENEGOTIATION |
| |
| OpenSSL always attempts to use secure renegotiation as |
| described in RFC5746. This counters the prefix attack described in |
| CVE-2009-3555 and elsewhere. |
| |
| This attack has far reaching consequences which application writers should be |
| aware of. In the description below an implementation supporting secure |
| renegotiation is referred to as I<patched>. A server not supporting secure |
| renegotiation is referred to as I<unpatched>. |
| |
| The following sections describe the operations permitted by OpenSSL's secure |
| renegotiation implementation. |
| |
| =head2 Patched client and server |
| |
| Connections and renegotiation are always permitted by OpenSSL implementations. |
| |
| =head2 Unpatched client and patched OpenSSL server |
| |
| The initial connection succeeds but client renegotiation is denied by the |
| server with a B<no_renegotiation> warning alert if TLS v1.0 is used or a fatal |
| B<handshake_failure> alert in SSL v3.0. |
| |
| If the patched OpenSSL server attempts to renegotiate a fatal |
| B<handshake_failure> alert is sent. This is because the server code may be |
| unaware of the unpatched nature of the client. |
| |
| If the option B<SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION> is set then |
| renegotiation B<always> succeeds. |
| |
| =head2 Patched OpenSSL client and unpatched server. |
| |
| If the option B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> or |
| B<SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION> is set then initial connections |
| and renegotiation between patched OpenSSL clients and unpatched servers |
| succeeds. If neither option is set then initial connections to unpatched |
| servers will fail. |
| |
| The option B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> is currently set by default even |
| though it has security implications: otherwise it would be impossible to |
| connect to unpatched servers (i.e. all of them initially) and this is clearly |
| not acceptable. Renegotiation is permitted because this does not add any |
| additional security issues: during an attack clients do not see any |
| renegotiations anyway. |
| |
| As more servers become patched the option B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> will |
| B<not> be set by default in a future version of OpenSSL. |
| |
| OpenSSL client applications wishing to ensure they can connect to unpatched |
| servers should always B<set> B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> |
| |
| OpenSSL client applications that want to ensure they can B<not> connect to |
| unpatched servers (and thus avoid any security issues) should always B<clear> |
| B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> using SSL_CTX_clear_options() or |
| SSL_clear_options(). |
| |
| The difference between the B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> and |
| B<SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION> options is that |
| B<SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT> enables initial connections and secure |
| renegotiation between OpenSSL clients and unpatched servers B<only>, while |
| B<SSL_OP_ALLOW_UNSAFE_LEGACY_RENEGOTIATION> allows initial connections |
| and renegotiation between OpenSSL and unpatched clients or servers. |
| |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES |
| |
| SSL_CTX_set_options() and SSL_set_options() return the new options bitmask |
| after adding B<options>. |
| |
| SSL_CTX_clear_options() and SSL_clear_options() return the new options bitmask |
| after clearing B<options>. |
| |
| SSL_CTX_get_options() and SSL_get_options() return the current bitmask. |
| |
| SSL_get_secure_renegotiation_support() returns 1 is the peer supports |
| secure renegotiation and 0 if it does not. |
