=head1 NAME
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb - set a callback for session ticket processing
|
|
|
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
#include <openssl/tls1.h>
|
|
|
|
long SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb(SSL_CTX sslctx,
|
|
int (*cb)(SSL *s, unsigned char key_name[16],
|
|
unsigned char iv[EVP_MAX_IV_LENGTH],
|
|
EVP_CIPHER_CTX *ctx, HMAC_CTX *hctx, int enc));
|
|
|
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
SSL_CTX_set_tlsext_ticket_key_cb() sets a callback function I<cb> for handling
|
|
session tickets for the ssl context I<sslctx>. Session tickets, defined in
|
|
RFC5077 provide an enhanced session resumption capability where the server
|
|
implementation is not required to maintain per session state. It only applies
|
|
to TLS and there is no SSLv3 implementation.
|
|
|
|
The callback function I<cb> will be called for every client instigated TLS
|
|
session when session ticket extension is presented in the TLS hello
|
|
message. It is the responsibility of this function to create or retrieve the
|
|
cryptographic parameters and to maintain their state.
|
|
|
|
The OpenSSL library uses your callback function to help implement a common TLS
|
|
ticket construction state according to RFC5077 Section 4 such that per session
|
|
state is unnecessary and a small set of cryptographic variables needs to be
|
|
maintained by the callback function implementation.
|
|
|
|
In order to reuse a session, a TLS client must send the a session ticket
|
|
extension to the server. The client can only send exactly one session ticket.
|
|
The server, through the callback function, either agrees to reuse the session
|
|
ticket information or it starts a full TLS handshake to create a new session
|
|
ticket.
|
|
|
|
Before the callback function is started I<ctx> and I<hctx> have been
|
|
initialised with EVP_CIPHER_CTX_init and HMAC_CTX_init respectively.
|
|
|
|
For new sessions tickets, when the client doesn't present a session ticket, or
|
|
an attempted retrieval of the ticket failed, or a renew option was indicated,
|
|
the callback function will be called with I<enc> equal to 1. The OpenSSL
|
|
library expects that the function will set an arbitrary I<name>, initialize
|
|
I<iv>, and set the cipher context I<ctx> and the hash context I<hctx>.
|
|
|
|
The I<name> is 16 characters long and is used as a key identifier.
|
|
|
|
The I<iv> length is the length of the IV of the corresponding cipher. The
|
|
maximum IV length is L<EVP_MAX_IV_LENGTH> bytes defined in B<evp.h>.
|
|
|
|
The initialization vector I<iv> should be a random value. The cipher context
|
|
I<ctx> should use the initialisation vector I<iv>. The cipher context can be
|
|
set using L<EVP_EncryptInit_ex>. The hmac context can be set using L<HMAC_Init_ex>.
|
|
|
|
When the client presents a session ticket, the callback function with be called
|
|
with I<enc> set to 0 indicating that the I<cb> function should retrieve a set
|
|
of parameters. In this case I<name> and I<iv> have already been parsed out of
|
|
the session ticket. The OpenSSL library expects that the I<name> will be used
|
|
to retrieve a cryptographic parameters and that the cryptographic context
|
|
I<ctx> will be set with the retrieved parameters and the initialization vector
|
|
I<iv>. using a function like L<EVP_DecryptInit_ex>. The I<hctx> needs to be set
|
|
using L<HMAC_Init_ex>.
|
|
|
|
If the I<name> is still valid but a renewal of the ticket is required the
|
|
callback function should return 2. The library will call the callback again
|
|
with an argument of enc equal to 1 to set the new ticket.
|
|
|
|
The return value of the I<cb> function is used by OpenSSL to determine what
|
|
further processing will occur. The following return values have meaning:
|
|
|
|
=over 4
|
|
|
|
=item Z<>2
|
|
|
|
This indicates that the I<ctx> and I<hctx> have been set and the session can
|
|
continue on those parameters. Additionally it indicates that the session
|
|
ticket is in a renewal period and should be replaced. The OpenSSL library will
|
|
call I<cb> again with an enc argument of 1 to set the new ticket (see RFC5077
|
|
3.3 paragraph 2).
|
|
|
|
=item Z<>1
|
|
|
|
This indicates that the I<ctx> and I<hctx> have been set and the session can
|
|
continue on those parameters.
|
|
|
|
=item Z<>0
|
|
|
|
This indicates that it was not possible to set/retrieve a session ticket and
|
|
the SSL/TLS session will continue by by negotiating a set of cryptographic
|
|
parameters or using the alternate SSL/TLS resumption mechanism, session ids.
|
|
|
|
If called with enc equal to 0 the library will call the I<cb> again to get
|
|
a new set of parameters.
|
|
|
|
=item less than 0
|
|
|
|
This indicates an error.

=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
Session resumption shortcuts the TLS so that the client certificate
|
|
negotiation don't occur. It makes up for this by storing client certificate
|
|
an all other negotiated state information encrypted within the ticket. In a
|
|
resumed session the applications will have all this state information available
|
|
exactly as if a full negotiation had occurred.
|
|
|
|
If an attacker can obtain the key used to encrypt a session ticket, they can
|
|
obtain the master secret for any ticket using that key and decrypt any traffic
|
|
using that session: even if the ciphersuite supports forward secrecy. As
|
|
a result applications may wish to use multiple keys and avoid using long term
|
|
keys stored in files.
|
|
|
|
Applications can use longer keys to maintain a consistent level of security.
|
|
For example if a ciphersuite uses 256 bit ciphers but only a 128 bit ticket key
|
|
the overall security is only 128 bits because breaking the ticket key will
|
|
enable an attacker to obtain the session keys.
