| =head1 NAME |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type, SSL_CONF_finish, |
| SSL_CONF_cmd - send configuration command |
| |
| =head1 SYNOPSIS |
| |
| #include <openssl/ssl.h> |
| |
| int SSL_CONF_cmd(SSL_CONF_CTX *cctx, const char *cmd, const char *value); |
| int SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type(SSL_CONF_CTX *cctx, const char *cmd); |
| int SSL_CONF_finish(SSL_CONF_CTX *cctx); |
| |
| =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| |
| The function SSL_CONF_cmd() performs configuration operation B<cmd> with |
| optional parameter B<value> on B<ctx>. Its purpose is to simplify application |
| configuration of B<SSL_CTX> or B<SSL> structures by providing a common |
| framework for command line options or configuration files. |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type() returns the type of value that B<cmd> refers to. |
| |
| The function SSL_CONF_finish() must be called after all configuration |
| operations have been completed. It is used to finalise any operations |
| or to process defaults. |
| |
| =head1 SUPPORTED COMMAND LINE COMMANDS |
| |
| Currently supported B<cmd> names for command lines (i.e. when the |
| flag B<SSL_CONF_CMDLINE> is set) are listed below. Note: all B<cmd> names |
| are case sensitive. Unless otherwise stated commands can be used by |
| both clients and servers and the B<value> parameter is not used. The default |
| prefix for command line commands is B<-> and that is reflected below. |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<-sigalgs> |
| |
| This sets the supported signature algorithms for TLS v1.2. For clients this |
| value is used directly for the supported signature algorithms extension. For |
| servers it is used to determine which signature algorithms to support. |
| |
| The B<value> argument should be a colon separated list of signature algorithms |
| in order of decreasing preference of the form B<algorithm+hash>. B<algorithm> |
| is one of B<RSA>, B<DSA> or B<ECDSA> and B<hash> is a supported algorithm |
| OID short name such as B<SHA1>, B<SHA224>, B<SHA256>, B<SHA384> of B<SHA512>. |
| Note: algorithm and hash names are case sensitive. |
| |
| If this option is not set then all signature algorithms supported by the |
| OpenSSL library are permissible. |
| |
| =item B<-client_sigalgs> |
| |
| This sets the supported signature algorithms associated with client |
| authentication for TLS v1.2. For servers the value is used in the supported |
| signature algorithms field of a certificate request. For clients it is |
| used to determine which signature algorithm to with the client certificate. |
| If a server does not request a certificate this option has no effect. |
| |
| The syntax of B<value> is identical to B<-sigalgs>. If not set then |
| the value set for B<-sigalgs> will be used instead. |
| |
| =item B<-curves> |
| |
| This sets the supported elliptic curves. For clients the curves are |
| sent using the supported curves extension. For servers it is used |
| to determine which curve to use. This setting affects curves used for both |
| signatures and key exchange, if applicable. |
| |
| The B<value> argument is a colon separated list of curves. The curve can be |
| either the B<NIST> name (e.g. B<P-256>) or an OpenSSL OID name (e.g |
| B<prime256v1>). Curve names are case sensitive. |
| |
| =item B<-named_curve> |
| |
| This sets the temporary curve used for ephemeral ECDH modes. Only used by |
| servers |
| |
| The B<value> argument is a curve name or the special value B<auto> which |
| picks an appropriate curve based on client and server preferences. The curve |
| can be either the B<NIST> name (e.g. B<P-256>) or an OpenSSL OID name |
| (e.g B<prime256v1>). Curve names are case sensitive. |
| |
| =item B<-cipher> |
| |
| Sets the cipher suite list to B<value>. Note: syntax checking of B<value> is |
| currently not performed unless a B<SSL> or B<SSL_CTX> structure is |
| associated with B<cctx>. |
| |
| =item B<-cert> |
| |
| Attempts to use the file B<value> as the certificate for the appropriate |
| context. It currently uses SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() if an B<SSL_CTX> |
| structure is set or SSL_use_certificate_file() with filetype PEM if an B<SSL> |
| structure is set. This option is only supported if certificate operations |
| are permitted. |
| |
| =item B<-key> |
| |
| Attempts to use the file B<value> as the private key for the appropriate |
| context. This option is only supported if certificate operations |
| are permitted. Note: if no B<-key> option is set then a private key is |
| not loaded unless the flag B<SSL_CONF_FLAG_REQUIRE_PRIVATE> is set. |
| |
| =item B<-dhparam> |
| |
| Attempts to use the file B<value> as the set of temporary DH parameters for |
| the appropriate context. This option is only supported if certificate |
| operations are permitted. |

| |
| Sets the minimum and maximum supported protocol. |
| Currently supported protocol values are B<SSLv3>, B<TLSv1>, |
| B<TLSv1.1>, B<TLSv1.2> for TLS and B<DTLSv1>, B<DTLSv1.2> for DTLS, |
| and B<None> for no limit. |
| If the either bound is not specified then only the other bound applies, |
| if specified. |
| To restrict the supported protocol versions use these commands rather |
| than the deprecated alternative commands below. |
| |
| =item B<-no_ssl3>, B<-no_tls1>, B<-no_tls1_1>, B<-no_tls1_2> |
| |
| Disables protocol support for SSLv3, TLSv1.0, TLSv1.1 or TLSv1.2 by setting the |
| corresponding options B<SSL_OP_NO_SSLv3>, B<SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1>, B<SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_1> |
| and B<SSL_OP_NO_TLSv1_2> respectively. |
| These options are deprecated, instead use B<-min_protocol> and B<-max_protocol>. |
| |
| =item B<-bugs> |
| |
| Various bug workarounds are set, same as setting B<SSL_OP_ALL>. |
| |
| =item B<-comp> |

| signature algorithm or elliptic curve to use for an incoming connection. |
| Equivalent to B<SSL_OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE>. Only used by servers. |
| |
| =item B<-no_resumption_on_reneg> |
| |
| set SSL_OP_NO_SESSION_RESUMPTION_ON_RENEGOTIATION flag. Only used by servers. |

| |
| =head1 SUPPORTED CONFIGURATION FILE COMMANDS |
| |
| Currently supported B<cmd> names for configuration files (i.e. when the |
| flag B<SSL_CONF_FLAG_FILE> is set) are listed below. All configuration file |
| B<cmd> names are case insensitive so B<signaturealgorithms> is recognised |
| as well as B<SignatureAlgorithms>. Unless otherwise stated the B<value> names |
| are also case insensitive. |
| |
| Note: the command prefix (if set) alters the recognised B<cmd> values. |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<CipherString> |
| |
| Sets the cipher suite list to B<value>. Note: syntax checking of B<value> is |
| currently not performed unless an B<SSL> or B<SSL_CTX> structure is |
| associated with B<cctx>. |
| |
| =item B<Certificate> |
| |
| Attempts to use the file B<value> as the certificate for the appropriate |
| context. It currently uses SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file() if an B<SSL_CTX> |
| structure is set or SSL_use_certificate_file() with filetype PEM if an B<SSL> |
| structure is set. This option is only supported if certificate operations |
| are permitted. |
| |
| =item B<PrivateKey> |
| |

| |
| =item B<ChainCAFile>, B<ChainCAPath>, B<VerifyCAFile>, B<VerifyCAPath> |
| |
| These options indicate a file or directory used for building certificate |
| chains or verifying certificate chains. These options are only supported |
| if certificate operations are permitted. |
| |
| =item B<ServerInfoFile> |
| |
| Attempts to use the file B<value> in the "serverinfo" extension using the |
| function SSL_CTX_use_serverinfo_file. |
| |
| =item B<DHParameters> |
| |
| Attempts to use the file B<value> as the set of temporary DH parameters for |
| the appropriate context. This option is only supported if certificate |
| operations are permitted. |
| |
| =item B<SignatureAlgorithms> |
| |
| This sets the supported signature algorithms for TLS v1.2. For clients this |
| value is used directly for the supported signature algorithms extension. For |
| servers it is used to determine which signature algorithms to support. |
| |
| The B<value> argument should be a colon separated list of signature algorithms |
| in order of decreasing preference of the form B<algorithm+hash>. B<algorithm> |
| is one of B<RSA>, B<DSA> or B<ECDSA> and B<hash> is a supported algorithm |
| OID short name such as B<SHA1>, B<SHA224>, B<SHA256>, B<SHA384> of B<SHA512>. |
| Note: algorithm and hash names are case sensitive. |
| |
| If this option is not set then all signature algorithms supported by the |
| OpenSSL library are permissible. |
| |
| =item B<ClientSignatureAlgorithms> |
| |
| This sets the supported signature algorithms associated with client |
| authentication for TLS v1.2. For servers the value is used in the supported |
| signature algorithms field of a certificate request. For clients it is |
| used to determine which signature algorithm to with the client certificate. |
| |
| The syntax of B<value> is identical to B<SignatureAlgorithms>. If not set then |
| the value set for B<SignatureAlgorithms> will be used instead. |
| |
| =item B<Curves> |
| |
| This sets the supported elliptic curves. For clients the curves are |
| sent using the supported curves extension. For servers it is used |
| to determine which curve to use. This setting affects curves used for both |
| signatures and key exchange, if applicable. |
| |
| The B<value> argument is a colon separated list of curves. The curve can be |
| either the B<NIST> name (e.g. B<P-256>) or an OpenSSL OID name (e.g |
| B<prime256v1>). Curve names are case sensitive. |
| |
| =item B<MinProtocol> |
| |
| This sets the minimum supported SSL, TLS or DTLS version. |
| |
| Currently supported protocol values are B<SSLv3>, B<TLSv1>, B<TLSv1.1>, |
| B<TLSv1.2>, B<DTLSv1> and B<DTLSv1.2>. |
| The value B<None> will disable the limit. |
| |
| =item B<MaxProtocol> |
| |
| This sets the maximum supported SSL, TLS or DTLS version. |
| |
| Currently supported protocol values are B<SSLv3>, B<TLSv1>, B<TLSv1.1>, |
| B<TLSv1.2>, B<DTLSv1> and B<DTLSv1.2>. |
| The value B<None> will disable the limit. |
| |
| =item B<Protocol> |
| |
| This can be used to enable or disable certain versions of the SSL, |
| TLS or DTLS protocol. |
| |
| The B<value> argument is a comma separated list of supported protocols |
| to enable or disable. |
| If a protocol is preceded by B<-> that version is disabled. |
| |
| All protocol versions are enabled by default. |
| You need to disable at least one protocol version for this setting have any |
| effect. |
| Only enabling some protocol versions does not disable the other protocol |
| versions. |
| |
| Currently supported protocol values are B<SSLv3>, B<TLSv1>, B<TLSv1.1>, |
| B<TLSv1.2>, B<DTLSv1> and B<DTLSv1.2>. |
| The special value B<ALL> refers to all supported versions. |
| |
| This can't enable protocols that are disabled using B<MinProtocol> |
| or B<MaxProtocol>, but can disable protocols that are still allowed |
| by them. |
| |
| The B<Protocol> command is fragile and deprecated; do not use it. |
| Use B<MinProtocol> and B<MaxProtocol> instead. |
| If you do use B<Protocol>, make sure that the resulting range of enabled |
| protocols has no "holes", e.g. if TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.2 are both enabled, make |
| sure to also leave TLS 1.1 enabled. |
| |
| =item B<Options> |
| |
| The B<value> argument is a comma separated list of various flags to set. |
| If a flag string is preceded B<-> it is disabled. |
| See the L<SSL_CTX_set_options(3)> function for more details of |
| individual options. |
| |
| Each option is listed below. Where an operation is enabled by default |
| the B<-flag> syntax is needed to disable it. |
| |
| B<SessionTicket>: session ticket support, enabled by default. Inverse of |
| B<SSL_OP_NO_TICKET>: that is B<-SessionTicket> is the same as setting |
| B<SSL_OP_NO_TICKET>. |

| of B<SSL_OP_NO_COMPRESSION>. |
| |
| B<EmptyFragments>: use empty fragments as a countermeasure against a |
| SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 protocol vulnerability affecting CBC ciphers. It |
| is set by default. Inverse of B<SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS>. |
| |
| B<Bugs>: enable various bug workarounds. Same as B<SSL_OP_ALL>. |
| |

| |
| B<Once> requests a certificate from a client only on the initial connection: |
| not when renegotiating. Servers only. |
| |
| =item B<ClientCAFile>, B<ClientCAPath> |
| |
| A file or directory of certificates in PEM format whose names are used as the |
| set of acceptable names for client CAs. Servers only. This option is only |
| supported if certificate operations are permitted. |

| |
| =head1 SUPPORTED COMMAND TYPES |
| |
| The function SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type() currently returns one of the following |
| types: |
| |
| =over 4 |
| |
| =item B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_UNKNOWN> |
| |
| The B<cmd> string is unrecognised, this return value can be use to flag |
| syntax errors. |
| |
| =item B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_STRING> |
| |
| The value is a string without any specific structure. |
| |
| =item B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_FILE> |
| |
| The value is a file name. |
| |
| =item B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_DIR> |
| |
| The value is a directory name. |
| |
| =item B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_NONE> |
| |
| The value string is not used e.g. a command line option which doesn't take an |
| argument. |
| |
| =back |
| |
| =head1 NOTES |
| |
| The order of operations is significant. This can be used to set either defaults |
| or values which cannot be overridden. For example if an application calls: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-SSLv3"); |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, userparam, uservalue); |
| |
| it will disable SSLv3 support by default but the user can override it. If |
| however the call sequence is: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, userparam, uservalue); |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-SSLv3"); |
| |
| SSLv3 is B<always> disabled and attempt to override this by the user are |
| ignored. |
| |
| By checking the return code of SSL_CTX_cmd() it is possible to query if a |
| given B<cmd> is recognised, this is useful is SSL_CTX_cmd() values are |
| mixed with additional application specific operations. |
| |
| For example an application might call SSL_CTX_cmd() and if it returns |
| -2 (unrecognised command) continue with processing of application specific |
| commands. |
| |
| Applications can also use SSL_CTX_cmd() to process command lines though the |
| utility function SSL_CTX_cmd_argv() is normally used instead. One way |
| to do this is to set the prefix to an appropriate value using |
| SSL_CONF_CTX_set1_prefix(), pass the current argument to B<cmd> and the |
| following argument to B<value> (which may be NULL). |
| |
| In this case if the return value is positive then it is used to skip that |
| number of arguments as they have been processed by SSL_CTX_cmd(). If -2 is |
| returned then B<cmd> is not recognised and application specific arguments |
| can be checked instead. If -3 is returned a required argument is missing |
| and an error is indicated. If 0 is returned some other error occurred and |
| this can be reported back to the user. |
| |
| The function SSL_CONF_cmd_value_type() can be used by applications to |
| check for the existence of a command or to perform additional syntax |
| checking or translation of the command value. For example if the return |
| value is B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_FILE> an application could translate a relative |
| pathname to an absolute pathname. |
| |
| =head1 EXAMPLES |
| |
| Set supported signature algorithms: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "SignatureAlgorithms", "ECDSA+SHA256:RSA+SHA256:DSA+SHA256"); |
| |
| There are various ways to select the supported protocols. |
| |
| This set the minimum protocol version to TLSv1, and so disables SSLv3. |
| This is the recommended way to disable protocols. |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "MinProtocol", "TLSv1"); |
| |
| The following also disables SSLv3: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-SSLv3"); |
| |
| The following will first enable all protocols, and then disable |
| SSLv3. |
| If no protocol versions were disabled before this has the same effect as |
| "-SSLv3", but if some versions were disables this will re-enable them before |
| disabling SSLv3. |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "ALL,-SSLv3"); |
| |
| Only enable TLSv1.2: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "MinProtocol", "TLSv1.2"); |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "MaxProtocol", "TLSv1.2"); |
| |
| This also only enables TLSv1.2: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Protocol", "-ALL,TLSv1.2"); |
| |
| Disable TLS session tickets: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Options", "-SessionTicket"); |
| |
| Enable compression: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Options", "Compression"); |
| |
| Set supported curves to P-256, P-384: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "Curves", "P-256:P-384"); |
| |
| Set automatic support for any elliptic curve for key exchange: |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd(ctx, "ECDHParameters", "Automatic"); |
| |
| =head1 RETURN VALUES |
| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd() returns 1 if the value of B<cmd> is recognised and B<value> is |
| B<NOT> used and 2 if both B<cmd> and B<value> are used. In other words it |
| returns the number of arguments processed. This is useful when processing |
| command lines. |
| |
| A return value of -2 means B<cmd> is not recognised. |
| |
| A return value of -3 means B<cmd> is recognised and the command requires a |
| value but B<value> is NULL. |
| |
| A return code of 0 indicates that both B<cmd> and B<value> are valid but an |
| error occurred attempting to perform the operation: for example due to an |
| error in the syntax of B<value> in this case the error queue may provide |
| additional information. |
| |
| SSL_CONF_finish() returns 1 for success and 0 for failure. |

| |
| SSL_CONF_cmd() was first added to OpenSSL 1.0.2 |
| |
| B<SSL_OP_NO_SSL2> doesn't have effect since 1.1.0, but the macro is retained |
| for backwards compatibility. |
| |
| B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_NONE> was first added to OpenSSL 1.1.0. In earlier versions of |
| OpenSSL passing a command which didn't take an argument would return |
| B<SSL_CONF_TYPE_UNKNOWN>. |
| |
| B<MinProtocol> and B<MaxProtocol> where added in OpenSSL 1.1.0. |
