[libfko] Added the ability to maintain backwards compatibility with the
now deprecated "zero padding" strategy in AES mode that was a hold over
from the old perl fwknop implementation. This enables the backwards
compatiblity tests to continue to pass in the test suite.
Added a few backwards compatibility tests for versions of fwknop going back to
2.0, and also added a compatibility test for an SPA packet produced by Android
4.2.1.
Added a new '--pcap-file <file>' option to allow pcap files to
be processed directly by fwknopd instead of sniffing an interface. This
feature is mostly intended for debugging purposes.
- [client] Added '-P udpraw' to allow the client to send SPA packets over
UDP with a spoofed source IP address. This is in addition to the
original 'tcpraw' and 'icmp' protocols that also support a spoofed
source IP.
- [server] Bug fix to accept SPA packets over ICMP if the fwknop client
is executed with '-P icmp' and the user has the required privileges.
(Vlad Glagolev) Submitted a patch to fix command exec mode
under SPA message type validity test. Support for command exec mode was
also added to the test suite.
Fernando Arnaboldi from IOActive found several conditions in
which the server did not properly throw out maliciously constructed
variables in the access.conf file. This has been fixed along with new
fuzzing tests in the test suite.
- [server] Fernando Arnaboldi from IOActive found several DoS/code
execution vulnerabilities for malicious fwknop clients that manage to
get past the authentication stage (so a such a client must be in
possession of a valid access.conf encryption key). These vulnerbilities
manifested themselves in the handling of malformed access requests, and
both the fwknopd server code along with libfko now perform stronger input
validation of access request data. These vulnerabilities affect
pre-2.0.3 fwknop releases.
- [test suite] Added a new fuzzing capability to ensure proper server-side
input validation. Fuzzing data is constructed with modified fwknop
client code that is designed to emulate malicious behavior.
For GPG mode, added a new access.conf variable "GPG_ALLOW_NO_PW" to make it
possible to leverage a server-side GPG key pair that has no associated
password. This comes in handy when a system requires the user to leverage
gpg-agent / pinentry which can present a problem in automated environments as
required by the fwknopd server. Now, it might seem like a problem to remove
the passphrase from a GPG key pair, but it's important to note that simply
doing this is little worse than storing the passphrase in the clear on disk
anyway in the access.conf file. Further, this link help provides additional
detail:

Added --key-gen to allow KEY_BASE64 and HMAC_KEY_BASE64 keys to be created from
reading random data from /dev/random. These keys can be placed within server
access.conf files and corresponding client .fwknoprc files for SPA
communications. The HMAC key is not used yet with this commit, but that is
coming.
This commit adds a new configuration variable "FORCE_NAT" to the access.conf
file:
For any valid SPA packet, force the requested connection to be NAT'd
through to the specified (usually internal) IP and port value. This is
useful if there are multiple internal systems running a service such as
SSHD, and you want to give transparent access to only one internal system
for each stanza in the access.conf file. This way, multiple external
users can each directly access only one internal system per SPA key.
This commit also implements a few minor code cleanups.
This commit does two major things:
1) Two new access.conf variables are added "ACCESS_EXPIRE" and
"ACCESS_EXPIRE_EPOCH" to allow access stanzas to be expired without having
to modify the access.conf file and restart fwknopd.
2) Allow an access stanza that matches the SPA source address to not
automatically short circuit other stanzas if there is an error (such as when
there are multiple encryption keys involved and an incoming SPA packet is
meant for, say, the second stanza and the first therefore doesn't allow
proper decryption).
