Triple DES, and other 64-bit block-size ciphers vulnerable to "Sweet32" birthday attack (CVE-2016-6329). Limit such cipher keys to no more than 64 MB of data encrypted/decrypted. While our overall goal is to limit data-limited keys to 64 MB, we trigger a renegotiation at 48 MB to compensate for possible delays in renegotiation and rollover to the new key. This client-side implementation extends data limit protection to the entire session, even when the server doesn't implement data limits. This capability is advertised to servers via the a peer info setting: IV_BS64DL=1 meaning "Block-Size 64-bit Data Limit". The "1" indicates the implementation version. The implementation currently has some limitations: * Keys are renegotiated at a maximum rate of once per 5 seconds to reduce the likelihood of loss of synchronization between peers. * The maximum renegotiation rate may be further extended if the peer delays rollover from the old to new key after renegotiation. Added N_KEY_LIMIT_RENEG stats counter to count the number of data-limit-triggered renegotiations. Added new stats counter KEY_STATE_ERROR which roughly corresponds to the OpenVPN 2.x error "TLS Error: local/remote TLS keys are out of sync". Prevously, the TLS ack/retransmit timeout was hardcoded to 2 seconds. Now we lower the default to 1 second and make it variable using the (pushable) "tls-timeout" directive. Additionally, the tls-timeout directive can be specified in milliseconds instead of seconds by using the "tls-timeout-ms" form of the directive. Made the "become primary" time duration configurable via the (pushable) "become-primary" directive which accepts a number-of-seconds parameter. become-primary indicates the time delay between renegotiation and rollover to the new key for encryption/transmission. become-primary defaults to the handshake-window which in turn defaults to 60 seconds. Incremented core version to 3.0.20. |
