The host(s) should also be in "hosts_require_tls", and "tls_verify_certificates" configured for the transport. +For the client to be able to verify the stapled OCSP the server must +also supply, in its stapled information, any intermediate +certificates for the chain leading to the OCSP proof from the signer +of the server certificate. There may be zero or one such. These +intermediate certificates should be added to the server OCSP stapling +file (named by tls_ocsp_file). + At this point in time, we're gathering feedback on use, to determine if it's worth adding complexity to the Exim daemon to periodically re-fetch OCSP files and somehow handling multiple files. + A helper script "ocsp_fetch.pl" for fetching a proof from a CA + OCSP server is supplied. The server URL may be included in the + server certificate, if the CA is helpful. + + One fail mode seen was the OCSP Signer cert expiring before the end + of vailidity of the OCSP proof. The checking done by Exim/OpenSSL + noted this as invalid overall, but the re-fetch script did not. + diff --git a/src/util/ocsp_fetch.pl b/src/util/ocsp_fetch.pl new file mode 100755 index 000000000..0d214d62a --- /dev/null +++ b/src/util/ocsp_fetch.pl @@ -0,0 +1,83 @@ +#!/usr/bin/perl +# Copyright (C) 2012 Wizards Internet Ltd +# License GPLv2: GNU GPL version 2 +use strict; +use Getopt::Std; +$Getopt::Std::STANDARD_HELP_VERSION=1; +use IO::Handle; +use Date::Parse; +my ($o,$i,$s,$f,$t,$u,$VERSION); +$VERSION='1.0'; +$o={'m'=>10}; +getopts("c:i:u:a:o:m:fv",$o); +usage('No issuer specified') if ! $o->{'i'} && ! -f $o->{'i'}; +usage('No certificate specified') if ! $o->{'c'} && ! -f $o->{'c'}; +usage('No CA chain specified') if ! $o->{'a'} && ! -f $o->{'a'}; +usage('No OCSP file specified') if ! $o->{'o'}; +usage('No URL specified') if ! $o->{'u'}; +$o->{'t'}=$o->{'o'}.'.tmp'; + +# check if we need to +if ( $o->{'f'} + || ! -f $o->{'o'} + || ( -M $o->{'o'} > 0 ) + ) +{ + $i = new IO::Handle; + open( $i, "openssl ocsp -issuer $o->{'i'} -cert $o->{'c'} -url $o->{'u'} -CAfile $o->{'a'} -respout $o->{'t'} 2>/dev/null |" ) || die 'Unable to execute ocsp command'; + $s = <$i> || die 'Unable to read status'; + $f = <$i> || die 'Unable to read update time'; + $t = <$i> || die 'Unable to read next update time'; + close $i; + # Status ok ? + chomp($s); + chomp($f); + chomp($t); + $s =~ s/[^:]*: //; + $f =~ s/[^:]*: //; + $t =~ s/[^:]*: //; + $t = str2time($t); + die "OCSP status is $s" if $s ne 'good'; + warn "Next Update $t" if $o->{'v'}; + # response is good, adjust mod time and move into place. + $u = $t - $o->{'m'} * (($t - time)/100); + utime $u,$u,$o->{'t'}; + rename $o->{'t'},$o->{'o'}; +} +exit; + +sub +usage +{ + my $m = shift; + print STDERR "$m\n" if $m; + HELP_MESSAGE(\*STDERR); + die; +} +sub +HELP_MESSAGE +{ + my $h = shift; + print $h <chain.pem + +The update procedure would be + + ocsp_fetch -i signing.example.net.pem \ + -c www.example.com.pem \ + -u http://ocsp.example.net/ \ + -a chain.pem \ + -o www.example.com.ocsp.der +EOF +} +# vi: aw ai sw=4 +# End of File -- 2.25.1
