* Issue #21043: Remove the recommendation for specific CA organizationsDonald Stufft2014-03-241-14/+3
| | | | | | | Closes #21043 by updating the documentation to remove specific CA organizations and update the text to no longer need to tell you to download root certificates, but instead use the OS certificates avaialble through SSLContext.load_default_certs.
* Issue #21013: Enhance ssl.create_default_context() for server side contextsDonald Stufft2014-03-231-7/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Closes #21013 by modfying ssl.create_default_context() to: * Move the restricted ciphers to only apply when using ssl.Purpose.CLIENT_AUTH. The major difference between restricted and not is the lack of RC4 in the restricted. However there are servers that exist that only expose RC4 still. * Switches the default protocol to ssl.PROTOCOL_SSLv23 so that the context will select TLS1.1 or TLS1.2 if it is available. * Add ssl.OP_NO_SSLv3 by default to continue to block SSL3.0 sockets * Add ssl.OP_SINGLE_DH_USE and ssl.OP_SINGLE_ECDG_USE to improve the security of the perfect forward secrecy * Add ssl.OP_CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE so that when used for a server side socket the context will prioritize our ciphers which have been carefully selected to maximize security and performance. * Documents the failure conditions when a SSL3.0 connection is required so that end users can more easily determine if they need to unset ssl.OP_NO_SSLv3.

* Issue #20995: Enhance default ciphers used by the ssl moduleDonald Stufft2014-03-221-11/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Closes #20995 by Enabling better security by prioritizing ciphers such that: * Prefer cipher suites that offer perfect forward secrecy (DHE/ECDHE) * Prefer ECDHE over DHE for better performance * Prefer any AES-GCM over any AES-CBC for better performance and security * Then Use HIGH cipher suites as a fallback * Then Use 3DES as fallback which is secure but slow * Finally use RC4 as a fallback which is problematic but needed for compatibility some times. * Disable NULL authentication, NULL encryption, and MD5 MACs for security reasons
