2012-06-24Add gnutls_enable_pkcs11 option.Phil Pennock
GnuTLS 2.12.0 adds PKCS11 support using p11-kit and by default will autoload modules, which interoperates badly with GNOME keyring integration, configured via paths in environment variables, and Exim invoked by the user (eg, mailq) will then try to load the modules, fail and spew warnings from the module for a library loaded by a library. http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/gnutls.html#Smart-cards-and-HSMs documents that to prevent this, explicitly init PKCS11 before calling gnutls_global_init(). So we do so, unless the admin sets the new option. Reported by Andreas Metzler, who confirmed that the added calls fixed the problem for him.

2012-05-27For DH, use standard primes from RFCsPhil Pennock
2012-05-20Added tls_dh_max_bits & check tls_require_ciphers early.Phil Pennock
Janne Snabb tracked down the GnuTLS 2.12 vs NSS (Thunderbird) interop problems to a hard-coded limit of 2236 bits for DH in NSS while GnuTLS was suggesting 2432 bits as normal. Added new global option tls_dh_max_bits to clamp all DH values (client or server); unexpanded integer. Default value to 2236. Apply to both GnuTLS and OpenSSL (which requires tls_dh_params for this). Tired of debugging "SMTP fails TLS" error messages in mailing-lists caused by OpenSSL library/include clashes, and of finding out I typo'd in tls_require_ciphers only at the STARTTLS handshake. During readconf, fork/drop-privs/initialise-TLS-library. In that, if tls_require_ciphers is set, then validate it. The validation child will panic if it can't initialise or if tls_require_ciphers can't be parsed, else it exits 0. If the child exits anything other than 0, the main Exim process will exit.

2012-05-17Guards for older releases of GnuTLS.Phil Pennock
gnutls_sec_param_to_pk_bits() and gnutls_rnd() are both new as of GnuTLS 2.12.x. Guard their usage on 2.12.0+ at compile time. In older versions, the vaguely_random_number() function just immediately calls the fallback, so it's the same as before this change (just one extra indirection in the code-path). Define a constant of 1024 for dh-bits for use in those old releases where GnuTLS won't tell us how many we should use. Change the on-disk filename for generated D-H params again, replacing the -normal with -<bitcount>, so that it's 1024 or whatever, and as the value changes, Exim will automatically start using the new value.

2012-05-16Overhaul of GnuTLS code.Phil Pennock
GnuTLS code re-done, using cut&paste for preservation where appropriate. Stop using deprecated APIs. Stop hard-coding lists of ciphers. Use gnutls_priority_init() instead. Turns tls_require_ciphers into a string in the GnuTLS case, not just OpenSSL case. Deprecate three gnutls_require_* options; now ignored but not errors. (No warnings yet). Added TLS SNI support. Made the channel binding integration theoretically actually work. I had it guarded by an #ifdef but the value used was an enum instead. Oops. Fixed. New code much more amenable to future work permitting TLS in callouts. DH param sizes now chosen by GnuTLS maintainers, we use "normal"; that's suddenly a lot more bits, so the saved filename was changed too. (GNUTLS_SEC_PARAM_NORMAL). DH param setup only done for servers now, since clients don't need/use it. GnuTLS a lot more robust to library negotiation using stuff we don't support, error-ing out quickly for other authentication systems (PGP, etc). Renamed pseudo_random_number() to vaguely_random_number() which makes the nature clearer. GnuTLS now provides a vaguely_random_number() implementation, to match OpenSSL. Pull in <inttypes.h> to make the recent arithmetic changes compile on MacOS. Nuke test 2011 which related to the gnutls_require_* options now non-functional.
2012-05-13Use defines in config.h for type & scanf-patterns for eval. Update docs.Jeremy Harris
2012-05-12pcre-config support.Phil Pennock
Remove a couple of stray references to PCRE_CFLAGS too (dating from when PCRE was bundled).

2012-05-07Default accept_8bitmime to true.Phil Pennock
Some discussion at http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=817 Refer readers to Dan Bernstein's analysis of the issues. Consensus seen from maintainers is that DJB is right on this point.
2012-05-06Disable SSLv2 by default.Phil Pennock
2012-05-04More tls_sni support: outbound, logging.Phil Pennock
tls_sni as SMTP transport option. Use correct storage pool for copying tls_sni, so survives for life of process. Add +tls_sni log-selector, for inbound tls_sni. Update exipick to handle -tls_sni in spool files. Also reset tls_bits at start of outbound connection (was missing).

2012-05-03OpenSSL fixes and backwards compat break.Phil Pennock
Drop SSL_clear() after SSL_new() which causes protocol negotiation failures for TLS1.0 vs TLS1.1/1.2 in OpenSSL 1.0.1b. Remove SSL_OP_DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS (+dont_insert_empty_fragments) from default of openssl_options.
2012-03-31fix gsasl / cyrus claimsPhil Pennock
Point 1 for 4.78 said gsasl could *not* be used to replace cyrus. This was obsoleted by point 5. Remove claim from point 1, add additional note to point 5.
