Replace the usage of eap_send_response() in the method implementations
with a new eap_method_respond that skips the redundant "type" parameter.
The new eap_send_packet is used inside eap_method_respond and will be
reused for sending request packets in authenticator side EAP methods.
This password key was deprecated in favor of the common EAP-Password
key. Its been about a year so we are now removing support entirely
for EAP-PWD-Password.
The KDF function processes data in 32 byte chunks so for groups which
primes are not divisible by 32 bytes, you will get a buffer overflow
when copying the last chunk of data.
Now l_checksum_get_digest is limited to the bytes remaining in the
buffer, or 32, whichever is the smallest.
Similar to SAE, EAP-PWD derives an ECC point (PWE). It is possible
for information to be gathered from the timing of this derivation,
which could be used to to recover the password.
This change adapts EAP-PWD to use the same mitigation technique as
SAE where we continue to derive ECC points even after we have found
a valid point. This derivation loop continues for a set number of
iterations (20 in this case), so anyone timing it will always see
the same timings for every run of the protocol.
Most of this work was already done after moving ECC into ELL, but
there were still a few places where the 256-bit group was assumed.
This allows the 384-bit group to be used, and theoretically any
other group added to ELL in the future.
Rather than hard coding to SHA256, we can pass in l_checksum_type
and use that SHA. This will allow for OWE/SAE/PWD to support more
curves that use different SHA algorithms for hashing.
The RFC (5869) for this implementation defines two functions,
HKDF-Extract and HKDF-Expand. The existing 'hkdf_256' was implementing
the Extract function, so it was renamed appropriately. The name was
changed for consistency when the Expand function will be added in the
future.
The "H" function used by SAE and EAP-PWD was effectively the same
function, EAP-PWD just used a zero key for its calls. This removes
the duplicate implementations and merges them into crypto.c as
"hkdf_256".
Since EAP-PWD always uses a zero'ed key, passing in a NULL key to
hkdf_256 will actually use a 32 byte zero'ed array as the key. This
avoids the need for EAP-PWD to store or create a zero'ed key for
every call.
Both the original "H" functions never called va_end, so that was
added to hkdf_256.
eap_append_secret now takes a new cache_policy parameter which can be
used by the EAP method to signal that the value received from the agent
is to never be cached, i.e. each value can only be used once. The
parameter value should be EAP_CACHE_NEVER for this and we use this in
value EAP-GTC where the secret tokens are one time use. The
EAP_CACHE_TEMPORARY value is used in other methods, it preserves the
default behaviour where a secret can be cached for as long as the
network stays in range (this is the current implementation more than a
design choice I believe, I didn't go for a more specific enum name as
this may still change I suppose).
Replace usages of l_settings_get_value with l_settings_get_string, which
will make sure the returned strings are unescaped but also allocates
memeory and forces us to use l_free on most of the strings. Some of
these strings we explicitly set with l_settings_set_string() in our code
so when we retrieved them with l_settings_get_value() we would receive a
different string if there were any escapable characters in the string.
I didn't replace any of the l_settings_get_value() uses where we're just
checking whether a setting is present, or those which are hexstrings or
EAP method names assuming that they can't have any special characters,
although this isn't future proof. I did use l_settings_get_string() for
file paths though.
Accept two setting IDs in eap_append_secret, first for the username and
second for the password in case of the EAP_SECRET_REMOTE_USER_PASSWORD
EAP secret type. In all other cases only the first setting is used.
Until now for EAP_SECRET_REMOTE_USER_PASSWORD secrets we'd generate the
two setting names by adding different suffixes to the ID parameter.
Using the two different setting names automatically fixes the issues
with using the EAP Identity returned by the agent in EAP-MSCHAPv2 and
EAP-PWD.
