Stir/Shaken Refactor #524
Stir/Shaken Refactor #524
Conversation
cherry-pick-to: 18 |
I'm moving this back to draft because setting any of the profile config fields will wither result in a segfault or the wrong structure member being set. I'm refactoring how the profiles work to prevent the duplication of fields and to more easily prevent disagreements. |

Still trying to decide what can be unit tested vs testsuite tested. |

Super excited for this!!!!!! You guys rock!! |
Thanks @lukeescude! Would it be possible for you to test at all? |

Absolutely, do you happen to know where I can find the docs for configuring the module? (Not sure if it's still following the same syntax as the original stir_shaken.conf) - I don't mind looking at the code to extrapolate docs, just need to know where. |
Why do we need a refactor? The original stir/shaken implementation was started over 3 years ago when little was understood about practical implementation. The result was an implementation that wouldn't actually interoperate with any other stir-shaken implementations. There were also a number of stir-shaken features and RFC requirements that were never implemented such as TNAuthList certificate validation, sending Reason headers in SIP responses when verification failed but we wished to continue the call, and the ability to send Media Key(mky) grants in the Identity header when the call involved DTLS. Finally, there were some performance concerns around outgoing calls and selection of the correct certificate and private key. The configuration was keyed by an arbitrary name which meant that for every outgoing call, we had to scan the entire list of configured TNs to find the correct cert to use. With only a few TNs configured, this wasn't an issue but if you have a thousand, it could be. What's changed? * Configuration objects have been refactored to be clearer about their uses and to fix issues. * The "general" object was renamed to "verification" since it contains parameters specific to the incoming verification process. It also never handled ca_path and crl_path correctly. * A new "attestation" object was added that controls the outgoing attestation process. It sets default certificates, keys, etc. * The "certificate" object was renamed to "tn" and had it's key change to telephone number since outgoing call attestation needs to look up certificates by telephone number. * The "profile" object had more parameters added to it that can override default parameters specified in the "attestation" and "verification" objects. * The "store" object was removed altogther as it was never implemented. * We now use libjwt to create outgoing Identity headers and to parse and validate signatures on incoming Identiy headers. Our previous custom implementation was much of the source of the interoperability issues. * General code cleanup and refactor. * Moved things to better places. * Separated some of the complex functions to smaller ones. * Using context objects rather than passing tons of parameters in function calls. * Removed some complexity and unneeded encapsuation from the config objects. Resolves: asterisk#351 Resolves: asterisk#46 UserNote: Asterisk's stir-shaken feature has been refactored to correct interoperability, RFC compliance, and performance issues. See https://docs.asterisk.org/Deployment/STIR-SHAKEN for more information. UpgradeNote: The stir-shaken refactor is a breaking change but since it's not working now we don't think it matters. The stir_shaken.conf file has changed significantly which means that existing ones WILL need to be changed. The stir_shaken.conf.sample file in configs/samples/ has quite a bit more information. This is also an ABI breaking change since some of the existing objects needed to be changed or removed, and new ones added. Additionally, if res_stir_shaken is enabled in menuselect, you'll need to either have the development package for libjwt v1.15.3 installed or use the --with-libjwt-bundled option with ./configure.

Why do we need a refactor?
The original stir/shaken implementation was started over 3 years ago
when little was understood about practical implementation. The
result was an implementation that wouldn't actually interoperate
with any other stir-shaken implementations.
There were also a number of stir-shaken features and RFC
requirements that were never implemented such as TNAuthList
certificate validation, sending Reason headers in SIP responses
when verification failed but we wished to continue the call, and
the ability to send Media Key(mky) grants in the Identity header
when the call involved DTLS.
Finally, there were some performance concerns around outgoing
calls and selection of the correct certificate and private key.
The configuration was keyed by an arbitrary name which meant that
for every outgoing call, we had to scan the entire list of
configured TNs to find the correct cert to use. With only a few
TNs configured, this wasn't an issue but if you have a thousand,
it could be.
