Report on the Debian OpenSSL vulnerability on the IGTF Trust Fabric
by David Groep 24 May '08

24 May '08

Dear CAs, Relying Parties, Users, and all others interested, In this announcement of the EUGridPMA: 1. Impact of the Debian OpenSSL vulnerability on the IGTF ========================================================================= 1. Impact of the Debian OpenSSL vulnerability on the IGTF ========================================================================= A serious Debian (and derivatives, including Ubuntu) OpenSSL vulnerability (CVE-2008-0166) was announced on May 13th, related to a predictable random number generator in Debian's OpenSSL package: http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571 This can also affect public key certificates used within the IGTF and the Grid in general, if certificate requests have been generated on a vulnerable system. It can impact both the CA itself (if its own key pair was generated on such a system, as well as all subscribers (users, hosts and services). The IGTF Accredited Authorities, with support from security officers from several grid sites and our Relying Party members, have investigated the impact of CVE-2008-0166 on the entire IGTF trust fabric. - one CA certificate was based on weak material. This certificate was immediately replaced and an updated IGTF Distribution (1.21) was released on May 16th. More details are in the May 16th newsletter at https://www.eugridpma.org/newsletter/eugridpma-newsletter-20080516.txt If you have not yet installed the 1.21 release, please do so as soon as reasonably possible. If you have the old UK e-Science root certificate installed in your browser, you should update this one as well. - all Accredited CAs have reviewed the currently valid certificates for all subscribers since May 13th. Certificates based on weak key material have all been revoked by now. To ensure your trust infrastructure is safe, please make sure you have downloaded the latest CRLs, and keep these up-to-date at least once a day. Utilities for Unix based systems are available on the IGTF web site (https://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/util/) Modern browsers can automatically download new CRLs periodically. If you have CRLs installed in your browser, make sure these are also up-to-date. At this point in time, there is no reason to disable any specific CAs from the IGTF Trust Anchor distribution in relation to this vulnerability. ========================================================================= STANDARD CLAUSES AND REPEATED NOTICES ========================================================================= Subscribing to the EUGridPMA Newsletter --------------------------------------- This newsletter carries IGTF information intended for relying parties. For more information about this newsletter and how to subscribe, refer to the EUGridPMA web site at https://www.eugridpma.org/ Next Release ------------ The next release of the CA RPMs is to be expected in June 2008. -- David Groep ** National Institute for Nuclear and High Energy Physics, PDP/Grid group ** ** Room: H1.56 Phone: +31 20 5922179, PObox 41882, NL-1009DB Amsterdam NL **

Important update to the IGTF distribution - version 1.21 available
by David Groep 16 May '08

16 May '08

Dear CAs, Relying Parties, Users, and all others interested, In this announcement of the EUGridPMA: 1. Important IGTF distribution version 1.21 available with updated trust anchor ========================================================================= 1. Important IGTF distribution version 1.21 available ========================================================================= The UKeScience Root Certificate ("2007") is involved with CVE-2008-0166 and may have been based on weak key material generated on an (off-line) Debian system with a predictable random number generator. It is important that this root certificate be REPLACED with an updated version based on newly generated key material. A new distribution of Accredited Authorities by the EUGridPMA, based on the IGTF Common Source, is now available. It includes the updated key material and Authorities by all IGTF Members. This is version 1.21, release 1, and it is now available for download from the Repository at https://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/igtf/current/ and will soon be available on all mirrors. Changes from 1.20 to 1.21 ------------------------- (16 May 2008) * IMPORTANT update of the UKeScience Root and Issuing CAs (UK) Note that the subject names and file names of the new certificates are *the same* as the original ones, only the key material has changed! The issue affects the root certificate only. As in a standard IGTF trust anchor installation, the subordinate issuing CA is also installed in the repository and this certificate is taken preferentially over any user-supplied version, the impact of this issue is somewhat limited. For software that honours the "signing_policy" or "namespaces" relying-party defined name space constraints setting, no end-entity certificates can easily be impersonated. However, we strongly advise to update as soon as possible! For technical reasons, both the root and issuing CA certificate need to be replaced, although only the root certificate is affected by the vulnerability. Good fingerprints of the updated certificates are: $ openssl x509 -subject -fingerprint -sha1 -noout -in 98ef0ee5.0 subject= /C=UK/O=eScienceRoot/OU=Authority/CN=UK e-Science Root SHA1 = A1:39:B0:F3:04:6C:0B:F9:F5:0A:1B:33:00:06:4F:83:6B:7D:4F:3E $ openssl x509 -subject -fingerprint -sha1 -noout -in 367b75c3.0 subject= /C=UK/O=eScienceCA/OU=Authority/CN=UK e-Science CA SHA1 = CA:1C:B6:6C:A9:E3:27:4D:F7:3E:A9:EB:6A:33:3F:C1:A2:B1:B8:D7 whereas the weak certificates are: subject= /C=UK/O=eScienceRoot/OU=Authority/CN=UK e-Science Root SHA1 = B1:77:5E:BB:11:13:B4:B5:0E:40:57:F1:E0:6A:BE:B9:4E:44:B7:45 subject= /C=UK/O=eScienceCA/OU=Authority/CN=UK e-Science CA SHA1 = 31:C1:93:3D:E8:9C:C4:B7:8A:02:B5:2D:56:D5:6B:43:56:0B:9F:CA If you part of a coordinated-deployment project (such as OSG, EGEE, LCG, DEISA, NAREGI or others) you may want to await your project announcement before installing this release.

The EUGridPMA provides these certificates in this format for your convenience only, and to allow graceful changeover for legacy installations. *** All individual CAs packages, as well as the bundles, have the same (common) version number "1.20" and release "1". Distribution formats -------------------- * the distribution containes RPMs and tar-balls of each accredited authority, as well as meta-RPMs that depends on the RPMs of those accredited. * the tar "bundle" can be used to install the authorities in a local trust anchor directory using the "./configure && make install" process: igtf-policy-installation-bundle-1.20.tar.gz * the accredited directory contains tar-balls for all "classic", "mics", and "slcs" accredited CAs: igtf-preinstalled-bundle-classic-1.20.tar.gz igtf-preinstalled-bundle-slcs-1.20.tar.gz igtf-preinstalled-bundle-mics-1.20.tar.gz * those CAs whose key-length is less than or equal to 2048 bits are also available in a Java KeyStore (JKS), whose password is "" (empty string).

New important IGTF distribution version 1.18 available

16 Nov '07

Dear CAs, Relying Parties, Users, and all others interested, In this announcement of the EUGridPMA: 1. New important IGTF distribution version 1.18 available 2. Update on the UK e-Science CA 3. JKS keystore format change delayed We hope that you find this update useful and welcome any comments you may have. Also, feel free to redistribute this information widely as you see appropriate. For more information about this newsletter and the mailing list, please refer to the EUGridPMA web site at https://www.eugridpma.org/ ========================================================================= 1. New IGTF distribution version 1.18 available ========================================================================= A new distribution of Accredited Authorities by the EUGridPMA, based on the IGTF Common Source, is now available. It includes the newly accredited Authorities by all IGTF Members. This is version 1.16, release 1, and it is now available for download from the Repository at https://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/igtf/current/ Changes from 1.17 to 1.18 ------------------------- * ASGCCCA-2007 added to Accredited Classic set again (TW) * Withdrawn expired CA "Spain" (hash 13eab55e) (ES) * Withdrawn expired CA "SiGNET" (hash 747183a5) (SI) * Withdrawn discontinued CA "CERN" (hash fa3af1d7) (INT) * Updated SWITCH (classic) signing namespace policies (CH) * Added UNLPGrid CA (classic, hash b7bcb7b2) (AR) * Added MaGrid CA (classic, hash 7b54708e) (MA) * New contact email address for the SlovakGrid CA (SK) * New UK e-Science CA hierarchy "-2007" added (98ef0ee5 and 367b75c3) Note: during the transition period, two hierarchies (both old and "2007") will be distributed. See section 2 in this newsletter for details (UK) * (selected updates to repositories containing un-accredited CAs) You are kindly requested to upgrade to this release in a timely fashion, as the UK eScience hierarchy change goes into effect immediately. If you part of a coordinated-deployment project (such as OSG, EGEE, LCG, DEISA, NAREGI or others) you may want to await your project announcement before installing this release. The download repository is also mirrored by the APGridPMA at https://www.apgridpma.org/distribution/igtf/current Next Release ------------ The next release of the CA RPMs is to be expected in January 2008. ===================================================================== Please remember new location of distribution "dist.eugridpma.info" The trust anchor distribution is served by a separate, stand-alone system that serves only this static content: https://dist.eugridpma.info/distribution/ *** PLEASE UPDATE YOUR DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS *** ===================================================================== ========================================================================= 2. Update on the UK e-Science CA ========================================================================= During a routine audit of the UK e-Science PKI it was found that an encrypted backup of the Root CA's private key was missing from the secured environment, despite being locked in a safe when not in use. It is important to emphasise that the security of the UK e-Science CA - the accredited subordinate - was not affected; it has an entirely different security infrastructure. This could have happened for a number of reasons, not necessarily maliciously. Investigations were not conclusive. However, even if the key had been leaked from the secured environment, it was encrypted with an extremely strong passphrase and will not be immediately exploitable. Since we take security very seriously, we believe the best way to recover a fully trustworthy UK public key infrastructure (PKI) is to be open about the possibility, however remote, of the key being compromised. Having done extensive testing, we have decided to rekey the PKI. So this release will contain new CA certificates, which will sign all new and rekeyed certificates. The current (old) PKI will have to be kept in the distribution until all end entity certificates issued within it have expired or otherwise moved to the new PKI. Since the private key was encrypted with an extremely strong passphrase, it is considered safe to keep the root certificate in the distribution for up to another year, the natural lifetime of remaining certificates in the PKI. Even a resourceful and malicious attacker should not be able to break the passphrase within this timespan. However, to speed up the process, we are considering and investigating renewing existing certificates under the new PKI (but still as normal certificates with a 13 months lifetime) - although this is poorly supported by most client tools. It is of course technically possible to force users to rekey, but this is highly inconvenient with a userbase of this size, and is not considered necessary at this time. In either case, since we are limited to 13 months lifetime, and do not plan to issue shorter lifetime certificates at this time, renewals or rekeying would have to be distributed over several months to prevent concentration of all subsequent renewals within a short space of time. There will be an associated update to the CP/CPS of the CAs to cover the new PKI. In accordance with the policy, it is considered a security update so they will take effect immediately. Other issues planned for new CP/CPS releases will be postponed to allow time for the usual consultation. Jens Jensen, UK e-Science CA Manager IGTF Notice: This issue has been communicated to the IGTF previously and assessed to pose an extremely low risk. The reaction of the UK e-Science CA and the response has been coordinated. We thank our Relying Parties for their understanding. Detailed questions, if any, should be sent to the UK e-Science CA. ========================================================================= 3. JKS keystore format change delayed ========================================================================= After the announcement of the planned JKS format change, worry was expressed as to the compatibility with software that is still being deployed. The change to a new JKS format with larget key sized has therefore been put on a temporary hold. This also allows relying parties to apply this important update release without the need to simultaneously change the software. The Java KeyStores distributed by the EUGridPMA has so far been compatible with Java release 1.4 and earlier. Unfortunately, this implied that keys with a size larger than 2048 bits could not be included. The format of the keystore will change so as to be able to include the larget CA keys that are now becoming prevalent in the Distribution. This means that for the larger key sizes the JKS format will no longer be compatible with Java releases 1.4 and lower. A more recent Java installation will be required to use the new keystore format. The new keystore format will be introduced in a future release, and then contain all CA keys in the IGTF Distribution. ========================================================================= STANDARD CLAUSES AND REPEATED NOTICES: Distribution information ========================================================================= Notice on directory structure ----------------------------- *** ONLY CAs IN THE "accredited/" DIRECTORY and THE CAs INSTALLED USING THE ca_policy_igtf-classic-1.18-1.noarch.rpm ARE ACCREDITED Do *not* install certificates from the "worthless/" or "experimental/", directories, except if you yourself review and accept their policy and practice statement.
