This PR fixes#803 and emit an extra warning if the certificate
has a lifetime longer or equal of five years which happens often
on appliances with self signed certificates. (CAs do not offer
such a long certificate lifetime.) This was tested under Linux,
FreeBSD and OpenBSD. On the latter however we only check the
years as opposed to other OS where we have a finer granularity
(seconds).
On the screen there's only an output if the lifetime is too long,
using JSON or CSV formats, it is always displayed (ID: cert_validityPeriod).
Also this PR changes the ID cert_expiration_status to cert_expirationStatus.
Older FreeBSD and OpenBSD can't deal with italics characters but it output
the escape codes which could result in a different markup. This PR detects
such OS and just doesn't dsiplay the escape sequence.
Also the manpage is reflecting the change and has updates in the server
defaults and standard cipher checks section.
The HTML manual is now post processed through tidy
which removes the problem of ">" not HTML encoded.
--color 0 is now explicitly mentioned to avoid escaped codes in the
output.
Minor changes wrt certificate stores
Review: grammar, spelling. Errorneous and obsolete description.
Some items reordered.
Updated: to reflect the current capabilities.
Moreover: (Almost) complete the tuning variables section.
As a kind of a pre-warning this commit allows the n-1 connection problem to
give feedback on the screen (that wasn't working before).
Also the message on the screen is now more clear and the manpage
gives better advice.
Related to #1172
The cipher suites names in the RFCs stem (mostly) from IANA, see
https://www.iana.org/assignments/tls-parameters/tls-parameters.xhtml#tls-parameters-4
This PR corrects that in places visible to the user. For backwards
compatibility the cmd line switches still work as before, but there's
a preference to IANA. The RFC naming is labeled as to be retired
in the future.
As mentioned in #1106 proxying ocsp protocol doesn't work (yet)
This commit notifies the user that it is not possible. One
can ignore that and try by supplying IGN_OCSP_PROXY=true.
It also fixes a typo I probably introduced (pVULN_THRESHLD).
The standard separator after $FNAME_PREFIX is now '-'.
You can as well supply a different <fname_prefix> ending in '.', '_' or ',' , then
no no additional '-' will be appended.
Also a small bash function get_last_char() has been introduced which returns
the last char from a supplied string.
... previously it depended on the order of DNS replies otherwise. This was
one outcome of discussion in #1026 where it seemed more logical
to pick an IPv6 address as opposed to an abitrary (v4/v6) address.
Reduce the offensive tests to 4: the others are "just" / mostly cipher
based checks which should not cause an IDS to block. (This maybe
subject to reconsider at a later time.)
Added a switch --ids-friendly
Updated VULN_COUNT accordingly
Added this (including PHONE_OUT to env debugging output)
Added help()
Manual section added
This PR changes the logic the no-DNS switch works. The switch
now expects a value. "min" does minimum lookups, "none" does
no lookups at all (details see testssl.sh(1) ). "none" is
equivalent to the paranoid (boolean) value "true" before.
See previous commit
This commit finally fixes#1005 so that either a --ssl-native scan
terminates on the next (defined) occasion if there are network connectivity
problems. It introduces another set of variables (MAX_OSSL_FAIL vs. NR_OSSL_FAIL).
As "openssl s_client connect" is sometimes still being used without --ssl-native
it also shortens the wait for regular scans if an outage is encountered.
To make things easier bot sets (incl. *_SOCKET_FAIL) of variables are independent.
For the seldom case that somebody uses --ssl-native with client checks an exception
had to be made as otherwise only MAX_OSSL_FAIL client check would be performed.
This hasn't been understood yet...
As sometimes HTTP header requests (over OpenSSL) fail repeatedly in a way that an empty
reply is returned, the same strategy of detecting problems is applied here,
using MAX_HEADER_FAIL and NR_HEADER_FAIL.
All three detection mechanisims share a new function connectivity_problem().
File names are now auto-generated by using "-oA auto" / -oa "auto"
--similar to --csv and friends.
Also the formerly hidden switches --outFile and --outfile were added in the
help and in the manual.
Until the content is finalized the plan is to keep it in MD format.
For medium terms it is something which needs to be reconsidered
as markdown as the source format for documentation has too many limits.
Happy for suggestions here.
In the meantime here's what needs to be done:
* finalizing (see comments)
* proofreading 1: accuracy, logic, more content related
* proofreading 2: grammar, spelling
* more? pls let me know
