* bpo-31453: Add setter for min/max protocol version (#5259)Christian Heimes2018-02-271-2/+99
| | | | | | | | | | | | OpenSSL 1.1 has introduced a new API to set the minimum and maximum supported protocol version. The API is easier to use than the old OP_NO_TLS1 option flags, too. Since OpenSSL has no call to set minimum version to highest supported, the implementation emulate maximum_version = MINIMUM_SUPPORTED and minimum_version = MAXIMUM_SUPPORTED by figuring out the minumum and maximum supported version at compile time.

* bpo-32951: Disable SSLSocket/SSLObject constructor (#5864)Christian Heimes2018-02-271-6/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Direct instantiation of SSLSocket and SSLObject objects is now prohibited. The constructors were never documented, tested, or designed as public constructors. The SSLSocket constructor had limitations. For example it was not possible to enabled hostname verification except was ssl_version=PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT with cert_reqs=CERT_REQUIRED. SSLContext.wrap_socket() and SSLContext.wrap_bio are the recommended API to construct SSLSocket and SSLObject instances. ssl.wrap_socket() is also deprecated. The only test case for direct instantiation was added a couple of days ago for IDNA testing. Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>
* bpo-28124: deprecate ssl.wrap_socket() (#5888)Christian Heimes2018-02-271-182/+210
| | | | | | | The ssl module function ssl.wrap_socket() has been de-emphasized and deprecated in favor of the more secure and efficient SSLContext.wrap_socket() method. Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>
* bpo-32947: OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 / TLS 1.3 fixes (#5663)Christian Heimes2018-02-271-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * bpo-32947: OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 / TLS 1.3 fixes Misc fixes and workarounds for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 and TLS 1.3 support. With OpenSSL 1.1.1, Python negotiates TLS 1.3 by default. Some test cases only apply to TLS 1.2. Other tests currently fail because the threaded or async test servers stop after failure. I'm going to address these issues when OpenSSL 1.1.1 reaches beta. OpenSSL 1.1.1 has added a new option OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT for TLS 1.3. The feature is enabled by default for maximum compatibility with broken middle boxes. Users should be able to disable the hack and CPython's test suite needs it to verify default options.

* bpo-30622: Improve NPN support detection (#5859)Christian Heimes2018-02-241-0/+17

* [bpo-28414] Make all hostnames in SSL module IDN A-labels (GH-5128)Christian Heimes2018-02-241-11/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, the ssl module stored international domain names (IDNs) as U-labels. This is problematic for a number of reasons -- for example, it made it impossible for users to use a different version of IDNA than the one built into Python. After this change, we always convert to A-labels as soon as possible, and use them for all internal processing. In particular, server_hostname attribute is now an A-label, and on the server side there's a new sni_callback that receives the SNI servername as an A-label rather than a U-label.
* bpo-32008: don't use PROTOCOL_TLSv1 in example (GH-5789)Benjamin Peterson2018-02-211-2/+2
| | | | It's bad form to pin to an old version of TLS. ssl.SSLContext has the right protocol default, so let's not pass anyway.
* bpo-31399: Let OpenSSL verify hostname and IP address (#3462)Christian Heimes2018-01-271-4/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | bpo-31399: Let OpenSSL verify hostname and IP The ssl module now uses OpenSSL's X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() and X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_ip() API to verify hostname and IP addresses. * Remove match_hostname calls * Check for libssl with set1_host, libssl must provide X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() * Add documentation for OpenSSL 1.0.2 requirement * Don't support OpenSSL special mode with a leading dot, e.g. ".example.org" matches "www.example.org". It's not standard conform. * Add hostname_checks_common_name Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>

* bpo-31386: Custom wrap_bio and wrap_socket type (#3426)Christian Heimes2017-09-151-5/+31
| | | | | | | | | SSLSocket.wrap_bio() and SSLSocket.wrap_socket() hard-code SSLObject and SSLSocket as return types. In the light of future deprecation of ssl.wrap_socket() module function and direct instantiation of SSLSocket, it is desirable to make the return type of SSLSocket.wrap_bio() and SSLSocket.wrap_socket() customizable.

* bpo-28182: Expose OpenSSL verification results (#3412)Christian Heimes2017-09-081-1/+16
| | | | | | | | | The SSL module now raises SSLCertVerificationError when OpenSSL fails to verify the peer's certificate. The exception contains more information about the error. Original patch by Chi Hsuan Yen Signed-off-by: Christian Heimes <christian@python.org>
* bpo-29136: Add TLS 1.3 cipher suites and OP_NO_TLSv1_3 (#1363)Christian Heimes2017-09-081-2/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * bpo-29136: Add TLS 1.3 support TLS 1.3 introduces a new, distinct set of cipher suites. The TLS 1.3 cipher suites don't overlap with cipher suites from TLS 1.2 and earlier. Since Python sets its own set of permitted ciphers, TLS 1.3 handshake will fail as soon as OpenSSL 1.1.1 is released. Let's enable the common AES-GCM and ChaCha20 suites. Additionally the flag OP_NO_TLSv1_3 is added. It defaults to 0 (no op) with OpenSSL prior to 1.1.1. This allows applications to opt-out from TLS 1.3 now.

| | | | | | | | | | OpenSSL 1.1.0 to 1.1.0e aborted the handshake when server and client could not agree on a protocol using ALPN. OpenSSL 1.1.0f changed that. The most recent version now behaves like OpenSSL 1.0.2 again. The ALPN callback can pretend to not been set.
