  Since OpenSSL-3.x will remove all 64 bit block-cipher but also OpenVPNs changelog
for version 2.5.8 gives hints to get rid of BF-CBC for default configuations,
a warning will be displayed in the WUI if the user is running
BF-CBC|CAST5-CBC|DESX-CBC|DES-EDE-CBC|DES-EDE3-CBC but also SHA1 to change
as soon as possible to another more secure algorithm.

The call of the pkiconfigcheck function is now located in the status page section.

Hello Erik,

Nice to see you on this list again :)

Well, this does not sound like good news. It is yet another change that would break *lots* of existing OpenVPN setups.

Although the patch looks fine, I am not sure if this is the best way to go, because if we tell people that their setup won’t be supported much longer, what alternatives are there?

Resetting to the default options, throwing away their CA and start from scratch is not an option. Even 20 connections are too many to manually update.

If they would actually do this, we will be back to square one really soon, because we still don’t have cipher negotiation.

We are also just accumulating warning messages at the top of the page which cannot be fixed. For years, we are showing some certificate warning and I am not sure why that actually is and what people can do about it?!

So, I fear that we will have to keep supporting those really outdated (and yes, potentially dangerously insecure) setups for the lifetime of IPFire 2. If it isn’t an option to move forward to the latest version of OpenVPN we would be in *very* big trouble.

Best,
-Michael

It would need work from user side to change the cipher/HMAC in the WUI
and on client.ovpn if not already AES, Camelia or Seed has been chosen.

I think with the Sweet32 birthday attacks a lot of things has been
changed where even OpenSSL started with fundamental changes and i think
/hope it will go further in the crypto world which is also not that far
away with things like PQC so things are changing here more or less
rapidly.

This patch does not focus the CA, changes needs to be done with the
cipher/HMAC selection on server.conf and client.ovpn .

Am pretty alone on testing side and resonance in general with this but
the negotiation works here for me -->
https://github.com/ummeegge/ovpn_dev but do need OpenVPN clients with
version >= 2.5.0 .

Generating a new PKI was the intention with this which should be made
in my opinion otherwise all that might be a kind of security by
obscurity.
We throwed already away the DH warning messages with Peter´s DH Patch,
the MD5 message should be showed as you mentioned it, long enough and
should be ready to be deleted maybe ? Changes might be hard in that
topic but as in life, sometimes important ;-) ?

It is mainly OpenSSL not that much OpenVPN... with the legacy mode it
might also be a possibility to ride a dead horse.

It is mainly OpenSSL not that much OpenVPN as one can see already with
the PKCS#12 decryption problem... with the legacy mode it might also be
a possibility to ride a dead horse.

Exactly. That would require every single client to be changed, too.

I am not in favour of not moving forward. People should absolutely *not* be using Blowfish.

However, fact is, that plenty of people are using this out there. How many? We don’t know.

But we need a migration path no matter what.

Hmm, it is not surprising if development happens off list.

Coordination, looking for help and so on should happen here, because this is where the people are :)

Showing a warning does not change a lot for us:

We will still have to support the old ciphers/etc. because they are in use.

And we will have to do that because there is no way for users to migrate.

I would *really* like for OpenVPN to be a dead horse, because it is a pain. It is one of the largest CGI files we have; we have plenty of glue-code that is using very interesting hacks for implementing things like 2FA.

But the alternatives like Wireguard do not seem to be taking off either. So, OpenVPN is and remains the de-facto standard solution to connect mobile devices to IPFire. And that will probably remain the case for a very long time to come.

So, we will need to find a way how we can support OpenVPN well. Right now it really feels like a pile of work whenever there is a new release out there. We still rely on many deprecated features and we will need to make sure to get rid of them if we want to have a chance to maintain this with reasonable effort.

No other way to deliver the (un)trust which projects like OpenSSL have
in their own development.

Yes, even a cipher renegotiation for 64 bit block-ciphers will be
forced with a reneg-bytes 64000000 per default from OpenVPN!

Have you an idea what should be done or how to proceed further ?

Lot´s of stuff here as before but may in much smaller portions ?

Are there plans how to operate with OpenSSL-3.x ? If the wheel is
turning in this way there will be a long rat-tail as time goes by...

I feel you as you can imagine :-) but here again, first steps ? There
are really lot´s of ideas and of already done work but it makes no
sense to went here on as a lone warrior even the work has been far
beyond a reasonable effort spoken for myself!
