This commit updates the default ciphers and TLS protocols that are used
when the runtime JDK supports them. New cipher support has been
introduced in JDK 11 and 12 along with performance fixes for AES GCM.
The ciphers are ordered with PFS ciphers being most preferred, then
AEAD ciphers, and finally those with mainstream hardware support. When
available stronger encryption is preferred for a given cipher.
This is a backport of #41385 and #41808. There are known JDK bugs with
TLSv1.3 that have been fixed in various versions. These are:
1. The JDK's bundled HttpsServer will endless loop under JDK11 and JDK
12.0 (Fixed in 12.0.1) based on the way the Apache HttpClient performs
a close (half close).
2. In all versions of JDK 11 and 12, the HttpsServer will endless loop
when certificates are not trusted or another handshake error occurs. An
email has been sent to the openjdk security-dev list and #38646 is open
to track this.
3. In JDK 11.0.2 and prior there is a race condition with session
resumption that leads to handshake errors when multiple concurrent
handshakes are going on between the same client and server. This bug
does not appear when client authentication is in use. This is
JDK-8213202, which was fixed in 11.0.3 and 12.0.
4. In JDK 11.0.2 and prior there is a bug where resumed TLS sessions do
not retain peer certificate information. This is JDK-8212885.
The way these issues are addressed is that the current java version is
checked and used to determine the supported protocols for tests that
provoke these issues.
Under random seed 4304ED44CB755610 the generated byte pattern causes
BC-FIPS to throw
java.io.IOException: DER length more than 4 bytes: 101
Rather than simply returning an empty list (as it does for most random
values).
Backport of: #40939
hamcrest has some improvements in newer versions, like FileMatchers
that make assertions regarding file exists cleaner. This commit upgrades
to the latest version of hamcrest so we can start using new and improved
matchers.
* Un-mute and fix BuildExamplePluginsIT
There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the test iteself.
I think the failure were CI performance related, but while it was muted,
some failures managed to sneak in.
Closes#38784
* PR review
The build script file for the `:libs:elasticsearch-ssl-config` and
`:libs:ssl-config-tests` projects was incorrectly named `eclipse.build.gradle`
while the expected name was `eclipse-build.gradle`.
In addition, this also adds a missing snippet in the `build.gradle` conf file,
that fixes the project setup for Eclipse users.
This commit enables the use of TLSv1.3 with security by enabling us to
properly map `TLSv1.3` in the supported protocols setting to the
algorithm for a SSLContext. Additionally, we also enable TLSv1.3 by
default on JDKs that support it.
An issue was uncovered with the MockWebServer when TLSv1.3 is used that
ultimately winds up in an endless loop when the client does not trust
the server's certificate. Due to this, SSLConfigurationReloaderTests
has been pinned to TLSv1.2.
Closes#32276
The default value for ssl.supported_protocols no longer includes TLSv1
as this is an old protocol with known security issues.
Administrators can enable TLSv1.0 support by configuring the
appropriate `ssl.supported_protocols` setting, for example:
xpack.security.http.ssl.supported_protocols: ["TLSv1.2","TLSv1.1","TLSv1"]
Relates: #36021
This introduces a new ssl-config library that can parse
and validate SSL/TLS settings and files.
It supports the standard configuration settings as used in the
Elastic Stack such as "ssl.verification_mode" and
"ssl.certificate_authorities" as well as all file formats used
in other parts of Elasticsearch security (such as PEM, JKS,
PKCS#12, PKCS#8, et al).
