commit bd3db82906a2efcd678b5f4b61fef26c93828777 Author: Nick Mathewson nickm@torproject.org Date: Mon Apr 14 14:10:05 2014 -0400
New sort order for server choice of ciphersuites.
Back in 175b2678, we allowed servers to recognize clients who are telling them the truth about their ciphersuites, and select the best cipher from on that list. This implemented the server side of proposal 198.
In bugs 11492, 11498, and 11499, cypherpunks found a bunch of mistakes and omissions and typos in the UNRESTRICTED_SERVER_CIPHER_LIST we had. In #11513, I found a couple more.
Rather than try to hand-edit this list, I wrote a short python script to generate our ciphersuite preferences from the openssl headers.
The new rules are: * Require forward secrecy. * Require RSA (since our servers only configure RSA keys) * Require AES or 3DES. (This means, reject RC4, DES, SEED, CAMELLIA, and NULL.) * No export ciphersuites.
Then: * Prefer AES to 3DES. * If both suites have the same cipher, prefer ECDHE to DHE. * If both suites have the same DHE group type, prefer GCM to CBC. * If both suites have the same cipher mode, prefer SHA384 to SHA256 to SHA1. * If both suites have the same digest, prefer AES256 to AES128. --- changes/bug11513 | 12 ++++ src/common/gen_server_ciphers.py | 115 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/common/tortls.c | 40 +++++++++---- 3 files changed, 155 insertions(+), 12 deletions(-)
