If AES-128-GCM-SIV is available on the client, add it to the requested
algorithms in NTS-KE as the first (preferred) entry.
If supported on the server, it will make the cookies shorter, which
will get the length of NTP messages containing only one cookie below
200 octets. This should make NTS more reliable in networks where longer
NTP packets are filtered as a mitigation against amplification attacks
exploiting the ntpd mode 6/7 protocol.
In the NTS-KE client don't reject the response if it has non-critical
records that are too long for the processing buffer. This is not
expected to happen with the current specification, but it might be
needed with future extensions.
Fixes: 7925ed39b8 ("nts: fix handling of long server negotiation record")
The cookie record is currently assumed to be the longest record that
needs to be accepted by the client, but that does not have to be always
the case. Define the processing buffer using the maximum body record
constant instead and add an assertion to make sure it's not smaller than
the maximum accepted cookie length.
Recent change in handling of the NTPv4 server negotiation record (commit
754097944b) increased the length of the instance name buffer to make
room for the trailing dot. This allowed a record with body truncated in
the processing buffer to be accepted and caused an over-read of 1 byte
in the memcpy() call saving the name to the instance buffer.
Modify the client to accept only records that fit in the processing
buffer.
Fixes: 754097944b ("nts: handle negotiated server as FQDN")
The NTS RFC requires the recipient of the Server Negotiation NTS-KE
record to handle the name as a fully qualified domain name. Add a
trailing dot if not present to force the name to be resolved as one.
Log an error message when SCK_OpenTcpSocket() fails in the NTS-KE
client, e.g. when connect() fails due to the port not being allowed in
the SELinux policy.
Destroy the NTS-KE session of the client immediately even when the
resolver of the NTP address is running. This removes the session
local change handler and avoids an assertion failure in the local
finalization.
As a Linux-specific feature, allow sockets to be bound to a device using
the SO_BINDTODEVICE socket option. The CAP_NET_RAW capability is
required for setting the option.
Destroy the client cert credentials when destroying the last NKC
instance instead of NKC_Finalise(). This allows the client to reload the
trusted cert file between NTS-KE sessions.
Add a context structure for the algorithm and keys established by
NTS-KE. Modify the client to save the context and reset the SIV key to
the C2S/S2C key before each request/response instead of keeping two SIV
instances.
This will make it easier for the server to support different algorithms
and allow the client to save the context with cookies to disk.
Make the NTS-KE retry interval exponentially increasing, using a factor
provided by the NKE session. Use shorter intervals when the server is
refusing TCP connections or the connection is closed or timing out
before the TLS handshake.
The server session instances are reused for different clients. Separate
the server name from the label used in log messages and set it on each
start of the session.
