Michael Rash d46ba1c027 (Fernando Arnaboldi, IOActive) Found and fixed several DoS/code execution vulns for authenticated clients
- [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.

Jonathan Bennett
- Contributed OpenWRT support - see the extras/openwrt/ directory.
Sebastien Jeanquier
- Assisted with getting fwknop included in BackTrack Linux - the choice
distro for pentation testers.
Ozmart
- Suggested the idea for setting an access stanza expiration time.
- Suggested the abiliy to have certain incoming connections automatically
NAT'd through to specific internal systems. The result was the FORCE_NAT
mode.
- Assisted with getting fwknop running under the Pentoo Linux distro.
Max Kastanas
- Contributed both an Android and an iPhone fwknop client port - see the
top level android/ and iphone/ directories.
Ted Wynnychenko
- Helped test fwknop PF support on OpenBSD.
Andy Rowland
- Reported a bug where the same encryption key used for two stanzas in the
access.conf file would result in access requests that matched the second
stanza to always be treated as a replay attack. This has been fixed for
the fwknop-2.0.1 release.
C Anthony Risinger
- Caught a bug where the default PCAP_LOOP_SLEEP value was 1/100th of a
second instead of the intended default of 1/10th of a second.
Franck Joncourt
- fwknop Debian package maintainer.
- Contributed a new Debian init script.
Jonathan Schulz
- Submitted patches to change HTTP connection type to 'close' for -R mode
in the client and fix a bug for recv() calls against returned HTTP data.
Aldan Beaubien
- Reported an issue with the Morpheus client sending SPA packets with NULL
IP addresses, and code was added to fwknopd to better validate incoming
SPA data as a result of this report.
Geoff Carstairs
- Suggested a way to redirect valid connection requests to a specific
internal service via NAT, configurable by each stanza in access.conf.
This allows for better access control for multple users requiring access
to multiple internal systems, in a manner that is transparent to the
user. The result was the FORCE_NAT mode.
Hank Leininger
- For iptables firewalls, suggested a check for the 'comment' match to
ensure the local environment will properly support fwknopd operations.
The result is the new ENABLE_IPT_COMMENT_CHECK functionality.
Fernando Arnaboldi (IOActive)
- Found important buffer overflow conditions for authenticated SPA clients
in the fwknopd server (pre-2.0.3). These findings enabled fixes to be
developed along with a new fuzzing capability in the test suite.
