David Cooper 9d1803d6eb More SSLv2 (and SSLv3) related fixes
In doing some work on cipher_pref_check() I noticed that it was failing on SSLv2 since the call to "$OPENSSL s_client" includes SNI. I've also noticed in my testing that "$OPENSSL s_client" will not connect to an SSLv2-only server unless the "-ssl2" flag is included. So, I carefully checked each call to "$OPENSSL s_client" in the program (other than in run_allciphers and run_cipher_per_proto, since those functions are already addresses in PR #341) to see whether they would inappropriate fail with an SSLv2-only (or SSLv3-only) server.

As a general rule, if the call doesn't currently include the protocol, then I added "-ssl2" if $OPTIMAL_PROTO is "-ssl2", indicating that the server only supports SSLv2, and I removed any $SNI if a protocol is specified if a protocol is specified and it is either SSLv2 or SSLv3.

I tested it on an SSLv2-only server, and the results are much better. I also tested it on a collection of other servers, none of which support SSLv2, and the results are the same as with the current code.

The only thing I haven't been able to test is how the revised code works when the "--starttls" option is used. I don't believe the changes I made would cause anything to break in that case, but I also don't think code will work any better in that case, if the server only supports SSLv2. Of course, since no server should support SSLv2 (let alone only SSLv2), it shouldn't really be an issue.

One thing that I did not change, but that I do not understand; why does determine_optimal_proto() try the protocols in the order "-tls1_2 -tls1 -ssl3 -tls1_1 -ssl2" rather than "-tls1_2 -tls1_1 -tls1 -ssl3 -ssl2"? Doesn't the current ordering imply that TLS v1.0 and SSLv3 are better than TLS v1.1?

Intro

Gitter

testssl.sh is a free command line tool which checks a server's service on any port for the support of TLS/SSL ciphers, protocols as well as some cryptographic flaws.

Key features

  • Clear output: you can tell easily whether anything is good or bad
  • Ease of installation: It works for Linux, Darwin, FreeBSD and MSYS2/Cygwin out of the box: no need to install or configure something, no gems, CPAN, pip or the like.
  • Flexibility: You can test any SSL/TLS enabled and STARTTLS service, not only webservers at port 443
  • Toolbox: Several command line options help you to run YOUR test and configure YOUR output
  • Reliability: features are tested thoroughly
  • Verbosity: If a particular check cannot be performed because of a missing capability on your client side, you'll get a warning
  • Privacy: It's only you who sees the result, not a third party
  • Freedom: It's 100% open source. You can look at the code, see what's going on and you can change it.
  • Heck, even the development is open (github)

General

Here in the master branch you find the development version of the software -- with new features and maybe some bugs. For the stable version and a more thorough description of the command line options please see testssl.sh.

testssl.sh is working on every Linux/BSD distribution out of the box with some limitations of disabled features from the openssl client -- some workarounds are done with bash-socket-based checks. It also works on other unixoid system out of the box, supposed they have /bin/bash and standard tools like sed and awk installed. MacOS X and Windows (using MSYS2 or cygwin) work too. OpenSSL version >= 1 is a must. OpenSSL version >= 1.0.2 is needed for better LOGJAM checks and to display bit strengths for key exchanges.

Current Development

Planned features in the release 2.7dev/2.8 are:

https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh/milestones/2.7dev%20%282.8%29

Done so far:

  • Trust chain check against certificate stores from Apple (OS), Linux (OS), Microsoft (OS), Mozilla (Firefox Browser), works for openssl >=1.0.1
  • IPv6 (status: 80% working, details see https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh/issues/11
  • works on servers requiring a x509 certificate for authentication
  • SSL Session ID check
  • avahi/mDNS based name resolution
  • HTTP2/ALPN protocol check
  • Logging to a file / dir
  • Logging to JSON + CSV
  • check for multiple server certificates
  • browser cipher simulation
  • assistance for color-blind users
  • Even more compatibility improvements for FreeBSD, RH-ish and F5 systems
  • Considerable speed improvements for each cipher runs (-e/-E)
  • OpenSSL 1.1.0 compliant
