=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:

|
|
|
|
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_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_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.
|
|
|
|
=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.
