SSL Settings

Further to some recent discussions on PCI-DSS compliance this is a guide to updating some of the security settings in SME Server.

Currently SSLv2, SSLv3 and TLSv1.0 should not be used.

SME Server can use TLS v1.2 and TLS v1.1 but due to the openssl version it cannot provide TLSv1.3

SSL/TLS

Disabling TLSv1.0 per service

HTTPS

Remove TLSv1.0 port 443

config setprop httpd-e-smith TLSv1 disabled 
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
/etc/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart

IMAPS

Remove TLSv1.0 port 993 imaps (dovecot)

config setprop dovecot TLSv1 disabled
signal-event email-update

SMTPS

Remove TLSv1.0 port 465

config setprop qpsmtpd TLSv1 disabled
signal-event email-update

POP3S

POP3s is really a secure stunnel connection back to standard POP3

Remove TLSv1.0 port 995

config setprop pop3s TLSv1 disabled
signal-event email-update
  Note:
This is only available on SME9, for SME10 POP3 is handled by dovecot.


Dovecot

For windows 10 require TLSv1.2 to be enabled Default is disabled

[root@sme10a4 ~]# config show dovecot
dovecot=service
Quotas=enabled
status=enabled
# config setprop dovecot TLSv1.2 enabled
# signal-event email-update
[root@sme10a4 ~]# config show dovecot
dovecot=service
Quotas=enabled
TLSv1.2=enabled
status=enabled

Ciphers

First we should add a template fragment for pop3s

mkdir -p /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/var/service/pop3s/stunnel.conf/
cp /etc/e-smith/templates/var/service/pop3s/stunnel.conf/10ssl /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/var/service/pop3s/stunnel.conf/
nano /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/var/service/pop3s/stunnel.conf/10ssl

Add these lines after "$OUT .= "options = NO_TLSv1\n" unless ($pop3s{TLSv1} || 'enabled') eq 'enabled';"

# Disable weak ciphers
$OUT .= "ciphers = " . ($pop3s{CipherSuite} || $modSSL{CipherSuite} || 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4') . "\n";

Save.

Now we can set an overall Cipher, or per service.

Overall we can use (There is no separate setting for https)

config setprop modSSL CipherSuite 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4'

If we set modSSL overall we can then change the following per service:

config setprop ldap CipherSuite 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4'
config setprop qpsmtpd tlsCipher 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4'
config setprop pop3s CipherSuite 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4'

Expand all templates and restart:

signal-event post-upgrade;signal-event reboot

Other informations

Existing templates

For reference here are the existing keys in /etc/e-smith/templates

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf/35ssl:12:$OUT .= "ssl_cipher_list = " . ($dovecot{CipherSuite} || $modSSL{CipherSuite} || 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4') . "\n";
/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/35SSL10SSLCipherSuite:4:    $OUT .= $modSSL{CipherSuite} || 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4';
/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/openldap/slapd.conf/12tls:2:TLSCipherSuite         { $ldap{CipherSuite} || $modSSL{CipherSuite} || 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4' }
/etc/e-smith/templates/var/service/qpsmtpd/config/tls_ciphers/10ciphers:3:    return $qpsmtpd{tlsCipher} || $modSSL{CipherSuite} || 'HIGH:!SSLv2:!ADH:!aNULL:!MD5:!RC4';

those are fthe te,plate for protocols

Preferred Ciphers

When testing at ssllabs.com we can see that these are the only Ciphers it feels are secure but currently we do not have a specific Cipher setting to restrict it to these:

TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0x9e) 
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 (0xc02f)
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (0x9f) 
TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384 (0xc030)

Testing

Sites

https://www.ssllabs.com

https://testssl.sh/ and https://github.com/drwetter/testssl.sh

Commands

Test with:

nmap -p <port> --script ssl-enum-ciphers youserver.com

e.g.

nmap -p 995 --script ssl-enum-ciphers youserver.com

Test with:

openssl s_client -connect youserver.com:<port> -tls1

e.g.

openssl s_client -connect youserver.com:465 -tls1

Confirm access to TLSv1.1:

openssl s_client -connect youserver.com:465 -tls1_1

Note: if your server supports the protocol, You will get:

Protocol : TLSvX
Cipher : XXX

(You my need to CTL C out)

If your server does not support the protocol, you will get

Secure Renegotiation IS NOT supported
