<h3><a name="onlystrong" id="onlystrong">How can I create an SSL server which accepts strong encryption

<p>The following enables only the strongest ciphers:</p>

<div class="example"><h3>httpd.conf</h3><p><code>
|
|
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2<br />
|
|
SSLCipherSuite HIGH:!ADH:!EXP:!MD5:!NULL<br />
|
|
</code></p></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>While with the following configuration you enable two ciphers
|
|
which are resonably secure, and fast:</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><h3>httpd.conf</h3><p><code>
|
|
SSLProtocol all -SSLv2<br />
|
|
SSLCipherSuite RC4-SHA:AES128-SHA:HIGH:!ADH:!EXP:!MD5:!NULL<br />
|
|
SSLHonorCipherOrder on
|
|
</code></p></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>This strongly reflects the default value of <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html#sslciphersuite">SSLCipherSuite</a></code> and is the recommanded way to configure it.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="strongurl" id="strongurl">How can I create an SSL server which accepts all types of ciphers
|
|
in general, but requires a strong ciphers for access to a particular
|
|
URL?</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>Obviously, a server-wide <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html#sslciphersuite">SSLCipherSuite</a></code> which restricts
|
|
ciphers to the strong variants, isn't the answer here. However,
|
|
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> can be reconfigured within <code>Location</code>
|
|
blocks, to give a per-directory solution, and can automatically force
|
|
a renegotiation of the SSL parameters to meet the new configuration.
|
|
This can be done as follows:</p>
|
|
<div class="example"><p><code>
|
|
# be liberal in general<br />
|
|
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL<br />

<br />
|
|
<Location /strong/area><br />
|
|
# but https://hostname/strong/area/ and below<br />
|
|
# requires strong ciphers<br />
|
|

|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="allclients" id="allclients">How can I force clients to authenticate using certificates?</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>When you know all of your users (eg, as is often the case on a corporate
|
|
Intranet), you can require plain certificate authentication. All you
|
|
need to do is to create client certificates signed by your own CA
|
|
certificate (<code>ca.crt</code>) and then verify the clients against this
|
|
certificate.</p>
|
|
<div class="example"><h3>httpd.conf</h3><p><code>
|
|
# require a client certificate which has to be directly<br />
|
|
# signed by our CA certificate in ca.crt<br />
|
|
SSLVerifyClient require<br />
|
|
SSLVerifyDepth 1<br />
|
|
SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl.crt/ca.crt
|
|
</code></p></div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="arbitraryclients" id="arbitraryclients">How can I force clients to authenticate using certificates for a
|
|
particular URL, but still allow arbitrary clients to access the rest of the server?</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>To force clients to authenticate using certificates for a particular URL,
|
|
you can use the per-directory reconfiguration features of
|
|
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code>:</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><h3>httpd.conf</h3><p><code>
|
|
SSLVerifyClient none<br />
|
|
SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl.crt/ca.crt<br />
|
|
<br />
|
|
<Location /secure/area><br />
|
|
SSLVerifyClient require<br />
|
|
SSLVerifyDepth 1<br />
|
|
</Location><br />
|
|
</code></p></div>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="certauthenticate" id="certauthenticate">How can I allow only clients who have certificates to access a
|
|
particular URL, but allow all clients to access the rest of the server?</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The key to doing this is checking that part of the client certificate
|
|
matches what you expect. Usually this means checking all or part of the
|
|
Distinguished Name (DN), to see if it contains some known string.
|
|
There are two ways to do this, using either <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code> or
|
|
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_auth_basic.html">mod_auth_basic</a></code> method is generally required when
|
|
the certificates are completely arbitrary, or when their DNs have
|
|
no common fields (usually the organisation, etc.). In this case,
|
|
you should establish a password database containing <em>all</em>
|
|
clients allowed, as follows:</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><h3>httpd.conf</h3><pre>
|
|
SSLVerifyClient none
|
|
<Directory /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/secure/area>
|
|
|
|
SSLVerifyClient require
|
|
SSLVerifyDepth 5
|
|
SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl.crt/ca.crt
|
|
SSLCACertificatePath conf/ssl.crt
|
|
SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth
|
|
SSLRequireSSL
|
|
AuthName "Snake Oil Authentication"
|
|
AuthType Basic
|
|
AuthBasicProvider file
|
|
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.passwd
|
|
Require valid-user
|
|
</Directory></pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>The password used in this example is the DES encrypted string "password".
|
|
See the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html#ssloptions">SSLOptions</a></code> docs for more
|
|
information.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><h3>httpd.passwd</h3><pre>
|
|
/C=DE/L=Munich/O=Snake Oil, Ltd./OU=Staff/CN=Foo:xxj31ZMTZzkVA
|
|
/C=US/L=S.F./O=Snake Oil, Ltd./OU=CA/CN=Bar:xxj31ZMTZzkVA
|
|
/C=US/L=L.A./O=Snake Oil, Ltd./OU=Dev/CN=Quux:xxj31ZMTZzkVA</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>When your clients are all part of a common hierarchy, which is encoded
|
|
into the DN, you can match them more easily using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html#sslrequire">SSLRequire</a></code>, as follows:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><h3>httpd.conf</h3><pre>
|
|
SSLVerifyClient none
|
|
<Directory /usr/local/apache2/htdocs/secure/area>
|
|
|
|
SSLVerifyClient require
|
|
SSLVerifyDepth 5
|
|
SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl.crt/ca.crt
|
|
SSLCACertificatePath conf/ssl.crt
|
|
SSLOptions +FakeBasicAuth
|
|
SSLRequireSSL
|
|
SSLRequire %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_O} eq "Snake Oil, Ltd." \
|
|
and %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_OU} in {"Staff", "CA", "Dev"}
|
|
</Directory></pre></div>
