From 58a240d7735652138da46c64b5eb9e661e5533f5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dirkjan Bussink Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2014 16:12:40 +0100 Subject: SSL: ssl_session_tickets directive. This adds support so it's possible to explicitly disable SSL Session Tickets. In order to have good Forward Secrecy support either the session ticket key has to be reloaded by using nginx' binary upgrade process or using an external key file and reloading the configuration. This directive adds another possibility to have good support by disabling session tickets altogether. If session tickets are enabled and the process lives for a long a time, an attacker can grab the session ticket from the process and use that to decrypt any traffic that occured during the entire lifetime of the process. --- src/http/modules/ngx_http_ssl_module.c | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+) (limited to 'src/http/modules/ngx_http_ssl_module.c') diff --git a/src/http/modules/ngx_http_ssl_module.c b/src/http/modules/ngx_http_ssl_module.c index a0d258c8a..593111ca6 100644 --- a/src/http/modules/ngx_http_ssl_module.c +++ b/src/http/modules/ngx_http_ssl_module.c @@ -160,6 +160,13 @@ static ngx_command_t ngx_http_ssl_commands[] = { 0, NULL }, + { ngx_string("ssl_session_tickets"), + NGX_HTTP_MAIN_CONF|NGX_HTTP_SRV_CONF|NGX_CONF_FLAG, + ngx_conf_set_flag_slot, + NGX_HTTP_SRV_CONF_OFFSET, + offsetof(ngx_http_ssl_srv_conf_t, session_tickets), + NULL }, + { ngx_string("ssl_session_ticket_key"), NGX_HTTP_MAIN_CONF|NGX_HTTP_SRV_CONF|NGX_CONF_TAKE1, ngx_conf_set_str_array_slot, @@ -436,6 +443,7 @@ ngx_http_ssl_create_srv_conf(ngx_conf_t *cf) sscf->verify_depth = NGX_CONF_UNSET_UINT; sscf->builtin_session_cache = NGX_CONF_UNSET; sscf->session_timeout = NGX_CONF_UNSET; + sscf->session_tickets = NGX_CONF_UNSET; sscf->session_ticket_keys = NGX_CONF_UNSET_PTR; sscf->stapling = NGX_CONF_UNSET; sscf->stapling_verify = NGX_CONF_UNSET; @@ -644,6 +652,14 @@ ngx_http_ssl_merge_srv_conf(ngx_conf_t *cf, void *parent, void *child) return NGX_CONF_ERROR; } + ngx_conf_merge_value(conf->session_tickets, prev->session_tickets, 1); + +#ifdef SSL_OP_NO_TICKET + if (!conf->session_tickets) { + SSL_CTX_set_options(conf->ssl.ctx, SSL_OP_NO_TICKET); + } +#endif + ngx_conf_merge_ptr_value(conf->session_ticket_keys, prev->session_ticket_keys, NULL); -- cgit
