2019-04-07Add `verify_fail_if_no_cert` option for proper client authenticationLee Clagett1-1/+1
Using `verify_peer` on server side requests a certificate from the client. If no certificate is provided, the server silently accepts the connection and rejects if the client sends an unexpected certificate. Adding `verify_fail_if_no_cert` has no affect on client and for server requires that the peer sends a certificate or fails the handshake. This is the desired behavior when the user specifies a fingerprint or CA file.

2019-04-06Do not require client certificate unless server has some whitelisted.Lee Clagett1-12/+27
Currently a client must provide a certificate, even if the server is configured to allow all certificates. This drops that requirement from the client - unless the server is configured to use a CA file or fingerprint(s) for verification - which is the standard behavior for SSL servers. The "system-wide" CA is not being used as a "fallback" to verify clients before or after this patch.
2019-04-06Change SSL certificate file list to OpenSSL builtin load_verify_locationLee Clagett1-53/+45
Specifying SSL certificates for peer verification does an exact match, making it a not-so-obvious alias for the fingerprints option. This changes the checks to OpenSSL which loads concatenated certificate(s) from a single file and does a certificate-authority (chain of trust) check instead. There is no drop in security - a compromised exact match fingerprint has the same worse case failure. There is increased security in allowing separate long-term CA key and short-term SSL server keys. This also removes loading of the system-default CA files if a custom CA file or certificate fingerprint is specified.

2019-03-10epee: certificate generation fix, pkey deletedDusan Klinec1-3/+5
- pkey gets deleted by the pkey_deleter but the caller tries to serialize it which causes errors as the memory is freed

Use SSL API directly, skip boost layer
2019-03-05epee: add SSL supportMartijn Otto1-24/+58
RPC connections now have optional tranparent SSL. An optional private key and certificate file can be passed, using the --{rpc,daemon}-ssl-private-key and --{rpc,daemon}-ssl-certificate options. Those have as argument a path to a PEM format private private key and certificate, respectively. If not given, a temporary self signed certificate will be used. SSL can be enabled or disabled using --{rpc}-ssl, which accepts autodetect (default), disabled or enabled. Access can be restricted to particular certificates using the --rpc-ssl-allowed-certificates, which takes a list of paths to PEM encoded certificates. This can allow a wallet to connect to only the daemon they think they're connected to, by forcing SSL and listing the paths to the known good certificates. To generate long term certificates: openssl genrsa -out /tmp/KEY 4096 openssl req -new -key /tmp/KEY -out /tmp/REQ openssl x509 -req -days 999999 -sha256 -in /tmp/REQ -signkey /tmp/KEY -out /tmp/CERT /tmp/KEY is the private key, and /tmp/CERT is the certificate, both in PEM format. /tmp/REQ can be removed. Adjust the last command to set expiration date, etc, as needed. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense for monero anyway, since most servers will run with one time temporary self signed certificates anyway. SSL support is transparent, so all communication is done on the existing ports, with SSL autodetection. This means you can start using an SSL daemon now, but you should not enforce SSL yet or nothing will talk to you.
