OpenVPN
As requested on the mailing list and in trac ticket #410, add an option to disable 'traditional' Diffie Hellman key exchange. People want to be able to create ecdh-only configurations. This patch also disables RSA key exchange by default for OpenSSL builds, to prevent that people who set "--dh none" but have an OpenSSL version that doesn't support ECDH end up with a less secure connection. Note that users that specify their own --tls-cipher override these defaults and thus can still use whatever OpenSSL supports (and might thus end up with less secure connections). PolarSSL does not allow to easily disable RSA key exchange during runtime, but its default compile options do not include RSA key exchange based cipher suites. Finally update the manpage to reflect the new behaviour, and while touching it change the text to motivate users towards a more secure configuration. v2 - disable RSA key exchange by default Signed-off-by: Steffan Karger <steffan@karger.me> Acked-by: Arne Schwabe <arne@rfc2549.org> Message-Id: <1420141569-11773-1-git-send-email-steffan@karger.me> URL: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.openvpn.devel/9376 Signed-off-by: Gert Doering <gert@greenie.muc.de> |
