Birth of LibreSSL and its current status Frank Timmers Consutant, Snow B.V. Background What is LibreSSL • A fork of OpenSSL 1.0.1g • Being worked on extensively by a number of OpenBSD developers What is OpenSSL • OpenSSL is an open source SSL/TLS crypto library • Currently the de facto standard for many servers and clients • Used for securing http, smtp, imap and many others Alternatives • Netscape Security Services (NSS) • BoringSSL • GnuTLS What is Heartbleed • Heartbleed was a bug leaking of private data (keys) from both client and server • At this moment known as “the worst bug ever” • Heartbeat code for DTLS over UDP • So why was this also included in the TCP code? • Not the reason to create a fork Why did this happen • Nobody looked • Or at least didn’t admit they looked Why did nobody look • The code is horrible • Those who did look, quickly looked away and hoped upstream could deal with it Why was the code so horrible • Buggy re-implementations of standard libc functions like random() and malloc() • Forces all platforms to use these buggy implementations • Nested #ifdef, #ifndefs (up to 17 layers deep) through out the code • Written in “OpenSSL C”, basically their own dialect • Everything on by default Why was it so horrible? crypto_malloc • Never frees memory (Tools like Valgrind, Coverity can’t spot bugs) • Used LIFO recycling (Use after free?) • Included debug malloc by default, logging private data • Included the ability to replace malloc/free at runtime #ifdef trees • #ifdef, #elif, #else trees up to 17 layers deep • Throughout the complete source • Some of which could never be reached • Hard to see what is or not compiled in 1. -
