ETCD TLS still supports weak 64-bit block ciphers #8320

msi-normr · 2017-07-27T20:08:02Z

Description:
ETCD TLS still supports weak 64-bit block ciphers
Nessus security scanner indicates ETCD TLS port can still communicate using weak 64-bit block ciphers which is a security vaulnerabilty (SWEET32).

Steps to Reproduce:
1.) Setup ETCD for TLS
2.) Initiate a query to the ETCD https port and specify a weak cipher (ECDHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA, DES-CBC3-SHA)
curl -v https://lama1-1-1:4001/v2/members --cert /etc/ssl/local_certs/etcd2/etcd2.crt --key /etc/ssl/local_certs/etcd2/etcd2.key --ciphers ECDHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA

Actual Results:
ETCD responded from the query using the weak cipher

Expected Results:
Expecting ETCD to fail query.

Occurs On:
CoreOS 1409.5.0 (Ladybug)
ETCD v3.1.6
openssl 1.0.2k

Additional Information:

Openssl indicates this is fixed in v1.1.0 current CoreOS versions still use OpenSSL 1.0.2k
Is there any plans for ETCD to have a http server that will have ciphers configurable.

If etcd is going to worry about weak ciphers, maybe there should be a FIPS-140 mode? It seems the suggested way is cgo out to a certified library. /cc @xiang90

xiang90 · 2017-07-27T20:24:39Z

@heyitsanthony

Agreed.

swestcott · 2017-11-09T12:07:12Z

Weak cipher support in etcd was flagged up in a security test on our Kubernetes cluster too. We can reduce the risk via security group controls, but being able to whitelist ciphers would address the root cause.

swestcott · 2017-12-20T15:46:07Z

Further to the above, I feel that allowing users to choose ciphers themselves would offer greater flexibility and allow cipher configuration to be tailored for different regulatory environments. For example, PCI DSS refer to NIST SP 800-52 for TLS configuration.

This is the approach Kubernetes have taken via kubernetes/kubernetes#48859

xiang90 · 2017-12-22T02:13:40Z

@swestcott

It seems k8s approach is simpler, but it requires users to understand exactly what they expect, and it is go specific.

We probably should adopt the similar approach. Would you want to help on this?

Or would @spzala ?

swestcott · 2017-12-22T15:59:40Z

@xiang90 Understood, but I think it's responsible to expect users working in regulated environments to understand such settings. This also means users can response more quickly to any future cipher compromises.

We'll look to get a PR raised in the new year /cc @ThatsMrTalbot

philips · 2017-12-22T21:35:20Z

The Kubernetes solution looks reasonable to me.

I feel we should pick some default set of ciphers too. What about this list? https://github.com/ssllabs/research/wiki/SSL-and-TLS-Deployment-Best-Practices#23-use-secure-cipher-suites

Did Kubernetes select a default set? I couldn't tell from glancing at the PR.

xiang90 · 2017-12-22T21:38:46Z

@philips

I feel we should pick some default set of ciphers too. What about this list?

This might break existing users after a upgrade. Every time we tighten TLS/security or fix security related bugs, we break some users though...

philips · 2017-12-22T21:48:29Z

True. Is Kubernetes just rolling with all ciphers?

Is Kubernetes just rolling with all ciphers?

The default one is all available ones in Go TLS as far as I can tell.

@swestcott probably have more details to fill in here.

swestcott · 2017-12-26T15:48:04Z

The default one is all available ones in Go TLS as far as I can tell.

@xiang90 Yes, that's my understanding too. All ciphers by default, with an optional whitelist.

victorgp · 2018-01-08T02:27:36Z

Yes, in Kubernetes, if the ciphers are not specified, the Go default ones will be used.

xiang90 · 2018-01-08T19:00:20Z

@swestcott kindly ping. any progress?

ThatsMrTalbot · 2018-01-12T11:30:15Z

Have the start of something over at https://github.com/ThatsMrTalbot/etcd - it only seems to work when the TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 cipher suite is provided. If it isnt in the list then I get an error in the etcd logs (see below) and openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:2379 -tls1_2 refuses to connect

Error from etcd logs when TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 is not provided:

Failed to dial 0.0.0.0:2379: connection error: desc = "transport: authentication handshake failed: remote error: tls: handshake failure"; please retry.

xiang90 · 2018-01-19T02:05:33Z

@ThatsMrTalbot

can you send a WIP pr to the etcd upstream repo? then we can discuss there.

knisbet · 2018-04-24T16:10:16Z

@ThatsMrTalbot are you still working on this?

I'm also looking for this feature, as right now I have some settings hacked into a fork. So I can work on this if needed.

fmazoyer · 2018-05-31T09:50:18Z

Hi everyone,
I have no etcd/security knowledge :-), so I might be asking dumb questions.

Our Security team ran a scan on all our local systems and reported this:
Linux,2379,TLS/SSL Server Supports The Use of Static Key Ciphers,"Disable TLS/SSL support for static key

Is this ectd issue linked to 'Sweet32' vulnerability?
Is there a known workaround?

Thanks a lot for your help :-)

hexfusion · 2018-05-31T11:07:35Z

Our Security team ran a scan on all our local systems and reported this:
Linux,2379,TLS/SSL Server Supports The Use of Static Key Ciphers,"Disable TLS/SSL support for static key

Hi @fmazoyer what version of etcd was this scan against?

fmazoyer · 2018-05-31T11:14:06Z

Hi @hexfusion thanks for the swift reply :-)

It's docker's quay.io/coreos/etcd:v3.2.4

vhosakot · 2018-11-28T23:34:36Z

I checked all the TLS 1.2 ciphers with etcd 3.3 and found that etcd 3.3 by default (without the --cipher-suites argument) supports the following TLS cipher suites sorted by strength (encryption algorithm key length):

ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384
ECDHE-RSA-CHACHA20-POLY1305
ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA
AES256-GCM-SHA384
AES256-SHA
ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA
AES128-GCM-SHA256
AES128-SHA

All the TLS 1.2 ciphers were found using the openssl command:

openssl ciphers 'ALL:eNULL:@STRENGTH'

gyuho · 2018-11-28T23:42:32Z

@vhosakot Right, we default to whatever Go runtime provides (depending on the machine that you run etcd with). You can specify the cipher suites to exclude weaker ones.

vhosakot · 2018-11-28T23:54:56Z

Thanks @gyuho. Are the ciphers in

           }

the default ciphers Go runtime provides to etcd?

gyuho · 2018-11-29T00:00:37Z

@vhosakot I meant to say, default would be empty cipher suite, which then is populated by Go runtime :) Those are only used to check if specified cipher is valid, but we do not provider cipher suite ordering by default (let Go handle it).

vhosakot · 2018-11-29T21:44:15Z

@gyuho I have etcd up with --cipher-suites TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 and the required keys and certs.

Now, how can I test with a client (like etcdctl or openssl) to verify that these ciphers are supported by etcd? Should the client send one of these ciphers when it connects to etcd?

tremble · 2018-11-30T09:02:15Z

I've found https://testssl.sh/ ( https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh ) helpful for testing ciphers, it doesn't explicitly check that etcd is working behind the ciphers, but it does test the initial SSL/TLS handshakes.

vhosakot · 2018-12-03T18:27:56Z

@gyuho I started etcd 3.3.10 with --cipher-suites TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256,TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384. Etcd is running at 127.0.0.1:12379.

See --cipher-suites at the end in:

But, when I test these three ciphers using openssl, I see just the ciphers TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 and TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 are accepted by etcd and not TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256. See outputs below:

But, when I test these three ciphers using openssl, I see just the ciphers TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 and TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 are accepted by etcd and not TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256. See outputs below:

@vhosakot I believe your openssl needs to support the cipher locally. openssl ciphers will generate a list. Are the ciphers that fail on that list?

vhosakot · 2018-12-03T18:53:48Z

@hexfusion Yes, the cipher TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 that fails is supported locally by openssl and is set in --cipher-suites for etcd, but still fails. Isn't this an etcd issue?

$ openssl ciphers -v -V | grep ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
          0xC0,0x2B - ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 TLSv1.2 Kx=ECDH     Au=ECDSA Enc=AESGCM(128) Mac=AEAD

$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.0g  2 Nov 2017

hexfusion · 2018-12-03T19:28:14Z

@vhosakot I guess the server key algorithm is probably rsa instead of ecdsa? I don't believe it can be both. Curious if changing that gives success.

My guess is your server cert will have similar output.

openssl x509 -in server.pem -text -noout 
[..]
Signature Algorithm: sha256WithRSAEncryption 
[..]

example using cfssl CA format for ecdsa algorithm

  "key": {
    "algo": "ecdsa", <-- not rsa
    "size": 256
 },

vhosakot · 2018-12-03T19:39:33Z

Thanks @hexfusion. So, should the following certs and keys I'm using for etcd server support ecdsa instead of rsa (they are using rsa currently). If so, I'll test with ecdsa certs and keys for etcd server.

  --trusted-ca-file=/var/contiv/etcd-secrets/ca.crt \
  --cert-file=/var/contiv/etcd-secrets/etcd-server.crt \
  --key-file=/var/contiv/etcd-secrets/etcd-server.key \
  --peer-trusted-ca-file=/var/contiv/etcd-secrets/ca.crt \
  --peer-cert-file=/var/contiv/etcd-secrets/etcd-server.crt \

If you want to use ecdsa vs rsa ciphers that makes sense to me.

ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256

vs

ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256

vhosakot · 2018-12-03T19:47:56Z

Thanks @hexfusion! I'll test with ecdsa certs and keys for etcd server.

@gyuho I see the following ciphers do not work and etcd fails to start with the following errors when I configure these ciphers for --cipher-suites. Aren't the following cipher suites supported by etcd?

hexfusion · 2018-12-05T15:26:50Z

Hi @vhosakot did the other ciphers work with ecdsa cert?

@gyuho I see the following ciphers do not work and etcd fails to start with the following errors when I configure these ciphers for --cipher-suites. Aren't the following cipher suites supported by etcd?

The support or non support of a cipher is most likely going to be openssl vs etcd issue. For example my openssl 1.1.1 does not support any of the ciphers that are failing can you verify both the client/server do in your case also that you are using rsa certs?

vhosakot · 2018-12-06T20:24:39Z

@hexfusion I'm not using ecdsa certs and keys for etcd currently, just rsa as etcd is using rsa certs and keys currently.

In the following cipher suites that fail, I see just DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 and DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 supported by openssl (in the output of openssl ciphers 'ALL:eNULL:@STRENGTH') and not the others. I am using openssl 1.1.0g:
