Don't accept NTPv4 packets which have a MAC longer than 24 octets to
strictly follow RFC 7822, which specifies the maximum length of a MAC
and the minimum length of the last extension field to avoid an ambiguity
in parsing of the packet.
This removes an ugly hack that was needed to accept packets that
contained one or more extension fields without a MAC, before RFC 7822
was written and NTP implementations started using truncated MACs.
The long MACs were used by chrony in versions 2.x when configured to
authenticate a server or peer with a key using a 256-bit or longer hash
(e.g. SHA256). For compatibility with chrony >= 4.0, these clients/peers
will need to have "version 3" added to the server/peer line in
chrony.conf.
When the request has an unrecognized critical record before the
NEXT_PROTOCOL and AEAD_ALGORITHM records, respond with error 0
(unrecognized critical record) instead of 1 (bad request).
When the request has multiple NEXT_PROTOCOL or AEAD_ALGORITHM records,
respond with error 1 (bad request).
For consistency and safety, change the CMC and HSH functions to accept
signed lengths and handle negative values as errors. Also, change the
input data type to void * to not require casting in the caller.
The daemon transmit timestamps are precompensated for the time it takes
to generate a MAC using a symmetric key (as measured on chronyd start)
and also an average round-trip time of the Samba signing of MS-SNTP
responses. This improves accuracy of the transmit timestamp, but it
has some issues.
The correction has a random error which is changing over time due to
variable CPU frequency, system load, migration to a different machine,
etc. If the measured delay is too large, the correction may cause the
transmit timestamp to be later than the actual transmission. Also, the
delay is measured for a packet of a minimal length with no extension
fields, and there is no support for NTS.
Drop the precompensation in favor of the interleaved mode, which now
avoids the authentication delay even when no kernel/hardware timestamps
are available.
Allow an IP family to be specified in the socket initialization in order
to globally disable the other family. This replaces the ntp_io and
cmdmon code handling the -4/-6 options and fixes a case where the NTP
client could still use a disabled family if the source was specified
with an IP address.
When the main makefile is used to get the list of chronyd objects in
order to build the unit tests, clang started (with the -MM option) to
generate the dependency files prints error messages about wrong
inclusions. Set a NODEPS variable to completely disable the generation
of the files.
When compiled with NTS support, don't require a SIV cipher to be always
supported (e.g. due to a different version of a library used for
building). Handle this case with a fatal message instead of crash.
Also, check the support early in the client unit test to prevent a hang.
Handle trusted sources as a separate set of sources which is required to
have a majority for the selection to proceed. This should improve the
selection with multiple trusted sources (e.g. due to the auth selection
mode).
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.
Instead of sharing the NTP rate limiting with NTS-KE, specify a new
service for NTS-KE and use it in the NTS-KE server.
Add ntsratelimit directive for configuration.
Refactor the client record and clientlog API to reuse more code between
different services and enumerate the services instead of hardcoding NTP
and cmdmon.
