Thread: PostgreSQL - Weak DH group
We are working with Postgres 9.3.14 and executing nmap we found that it is using “weak DH group” (nmap –script ssl-dh-params). Weak = 1024 bits.
See nmap output (1)
We don’t know if other versions are affected or not. The environment used is a RHEL 6 x86_6, OpenSSL version 1.0.2i with FIPS module.
This issue is similar to what this post explains about using weak DH parameters: http://www.usefuljs.net/2016/
Following with the code, it seems that PostgreSQL has missed the keyLength OpenSSL parameter, and it delivers into a weak crypto configuration.. Affected Code:
(Thanks to Damian in order to found the affected code)

As you pointed out, that's not what our callback does. We should fix this in master, at least. I'm not sure about backporting, there might be compatibility issues. It seems that at least OpenJDK (Java) didn't support DH groups larger than 1024 bits, until version 8. That's fairly recent, OpenJDK 8 was released in March 2014. ECDHE family of ciphers are not affected, and are preferred over plain DHE, I believe, so disabling DHE and removing the DH parameter loading code altogether is one option. Clearly not backportable, though. Meanwhile, users can work-around this by creating DH parameters with something like "openssl dhparam -out $PGDATA/dh1024.pem 2048". Yes, the file needs to be called "dh1024.pem", even though the actual key length is 2048 bits. - Heikki

As > you pointed out, that's not what our callback does. I propose the attached patch. It gives up on trying to deal with multiple key lengths (as noted earlier, OpenSSL just always passed keylength=1024, so that was useless). Instead of using the callback, it just sets fixed DH parameters with SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh(), like we do for the ECDH curve. The DH parameters are loaded from a file called "dh_params.pem" (instead of "dh1024.pem"), if present, otherwise the built-in 2048 bit parameters are used. I removed the code for generating DH parameters on-the-fly altogether. The OpenSSL man page clearly says that that should not be done, because generating the parameters takes a long time. And because OpenSSL always passed keylength=1024, AFAICS that had been always dead code. If we want to get really fancy, we could generate the parameters the first time you turn ssl=on, and store them in $PGDATA. But the generation takes a very long time, so the admin might think it's stuck. I note that supplying custom DH parameters in the file is completely undocumented :-(. We should add a note in the docs on how to generate the custom DH parameters with openssl. Also, there's no easy way of telling if your custom parameters are actually been used. If you copy the params file in $PGDATA, but you have a typo in the name, you won't notice. Perhaps we should print a line in the log when the file is loaded. I'm afraid of back-patching this, out of fear that older clients would stop working, or would downgrade to an even weaker cipher. You could fix it by putting weaker 1024 bit params in dh_params.pem, so maybe we could do it if we put a warning and instructions for doing that in the release notes. Thoughts? - Heikki

The actual parameters used don't matter, you just want to generate different parameters for every cluster. The key length of the parameters can be considered configuration, though. - Heikki

We've been using the same built-in parameters for 14 years now, they apparently came from https://web.archive.org/web/20011212141438/http://www.skip-vpn.org/spec/numbers.html (the original page is no longer available) and are shared by countless other systems. While we're not using the most common Oakley groups which are presumed to have been broken by various parties (https://weakdh.org) I think it'd be worthwhile to replace the currently built-in parameters with custom ones. And maybe even regenerate parameters for every minor release. HAProxy made a similar change last year, see https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/commit/d3a341a96fb6107d2b8e3d7a9c0afa2ff43bb0b6 / Oskari

Actually, adding a GUC also solves another grief I had about this. There is currently no easy way to tell if your parameter file is being used, or if the server is failing to read it and is falling back to the hard-coded parameters. With a GUC, if the GUC is set it's a good indication that the admin expects the file to really exist and to contain valid parameters. So if the GUC is set, we should throw an error if it cannot be used. And if it's not set, we use the built-in defaults. I rebased the patch, did some other clean up of error reporting, and added a GUC along those lines, as well as docs. How does this look? It's late in the release cycle, but it would be nice to sneak this into v10. Using weak 1024 bit DH parameters is arguably a security issue; it was originally reported as such. There's a work-around for older versions: generate custom 2048 bit parameters and place them in a file called "dh1024.pem", but that's completely undocumented. Thoughts?

Making it user-configurable seems pretty minimal to me. Everything else would probably require lengthy explanations about which file could hold which contents, and this confusion seems to be part of the problem. Fwiw, wouldn't it make sense to recreate the default 2048 DH group as well, maybe each time a new major is branched? Christoph

It changes the default DH parameters from 1024 bits to 2048 bits. That's a good thing for security, but older clients might not support it, and would refuse to connect or would fall back to something less secure. I don't think there are many such clients around anymore, but it's nevertheless not something we want to do in a stable release I think the best we can do is to document the issue and the workaround. To recap, to use stronger DH parameters in stable versions, you need to do "openssl dhparam -out $PGDATA/dh1024.pem 2048". But I'd like to take the opportunity to change this for new installations, with v10, instead of waiting for another year. Of course, you could say that for any new feature, too, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's a bad argument :-). It's a judgment call, for sure. - Heikki

If we break clients for v10 two months from release, some drivers won't be updated by release time, and that sounds pretty unfriendly to me. On the other hand, if there is only a theoretical risk of breakage and no clients that we actually know about will have a problem with it, then the argument for waiting is weaker. I'm not generally very excited about changing things after beta2, which is where are, but if this is a security issue then we might need to hold our nose and go ahead. I'm against it if it's likely to cause real-world connectivity problems, though. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company

Java 7 also doesn't support DH parameters > 1024 bits, but it supports ECDHE, which is prioritized over DH ciphers, so it doesn't matter. Java 6 was released back in 2006. The last public release was in 2013. It wouldn't surprise me to still see it bundled with random proprietary software packages, though. The official PostgreSQL JDBC driver still supports it, but there has been discussion recently on dropping support for it, and even for Java 7. [2] I would be OK with breaking DH with Java 6 in PostgreSQL 10, especially since there's a simple workaround (generate a 1024-bit DH parameters file). I would be less enthusiastic about doing that in a minor release, although maybe that wouldn't be too bad either, if we put a prominent notice with the workaround in the release notes.

Some more information on the situation with JDK version 6: I installed Debian wheezy on a VM, with a OpenJDK 6, and tested connecting to a patched server with the JDBC driver. It worked! Googling around, it seems that this was fixed in later versions of OpenJDK 6 (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8062834). I then downloaded the latest Oracle JRE binary version, 6u45, available from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-archive-downloads-javase6-419409.html. With that, it does not work, you get errors like: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: SSL error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not generate DH keypair ... Caused by: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: Prime size must be multiple of 64, and can only range from 512 to 1024 (inclusive) So, the last binary version downloadable from Oracle is affected, but recent versions of OpenJDK 6 work. Rebased patch attached, with proposed release notes included. Barring new objections or arguments, I'll commit this (only) to v10 later today. - Heikki -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
