Motivation:
Replace "if else" conditions with string switch. It is easier to read the code, for large "if else" constructions switch also could be faster.
Modification:
Replaced "if else" with a string switch.
Result:
Use new language features
Motivation:
The concurrent set is present in Java 8 and above so we can use it instead of own implementation.
Modification:
io.netty.utik.internal.ConcurrentSet replaced with ConcurrentHashMap.newKeySet().
Result:
Less code to maintain.
Motivation:
While we are not yet quite sure if we want to require Java11 as minimum we are at least sure we want to use java8 as minimum.
Modifications:
Change minimum version to java8 and update some tests which failed compilation after this change.
Result:
Use Java8 as minimum and be able to use Java8 features.
Motiviation:
Because of how we implemented the registration / deregistration of an EventLoop it was not possible to wrap an EventLoop implementation and use it with a Channel.
Modification:
- Introduce EventLoop.Unsafe which is responsible for the actual registration.
- Move validation of EventLoop / Channel combo to the EventLoop
- Add unit test that verifies that wrapping works
Result:
Be able to wrap an EventLoop and so add some extra functionality.
Motivation:
ChunkedWriteHandler should report write operation as failed
in case *any* chunked was not written. Right now this is not
true for the last chunk.
Modifications:
* Check if the appropriate write operation was succesfull when
reporting the last chunk
* Skip writing chunks if the write operation was already marked
as "done"
* Test cases to cover write failures when dealing with chunked input
Result:
Fix https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8700
Motivation:
At the moment it’s possible to have a Channel in Netty that is not registered / assigned to an EventLoop until register(...) is called. This is suboptimal as if the Channel is not registered it is also not possible to do anything useful with a ChannelFuture that belongs to the Channel. We should think about if we should have the EventLoop as a constructor argument of a Channel and have the register / deregister method only have the effect of add a Channel to KQueue/Epoll/... It is also currently possible to deregister a Channel from one EventLoop and register it with another EventLoop. This operation defeats the threading model assumptions that are wide spread in Netty, and requires careful user level coordination to pull off without any concurrency issues. It is not a commonly used feature in practice, may be better handled by other means (e.g. client side load balancing), and therefore we propose removing this feature.
Modifications:
- Change all Channel implementations to require an EventLoop for construction ( + an EventLoopGroup for all ServerChannel implementations)
- Remove all register(...) methods from EventLoopGroup
- Add ChannelOutboundInvoker.register(...) which now basically means we want to register on the EventLoop for IO.
- Change ChannelUnsafe.register(...) to not take an EventLoop as parameter (as the EventLoop is supplied on custruction).
- Change ChannelFactory to take an EventLoop to create new Channels and introduce ServerChannelFactory which takes an EventLoop and one EventLoopGroup to create new ServerChannel instances.
- Add ServerChannel.childEventLoopGroup()
- Ensure all operations on the accepted Channel is done in the EventLoop of the Channel in ServerBootstrap
- Change unit tests for new behaviour
Result:
A Channel always has an EventLoop assigned which will never change during its life-time. This ensures we are always be able to call any operation on the Channel once constructed (unit the EventLoop is shutdown). This also simplifies the logic in DefaultChannelPipeline a lot as we can always call handlerAdded / handlerRemoved directly without the need to wait for register() to happen.
Also note that its still possible to deregister a Channel and register it again. It's just not possible anymore to move from one EventLoop to another (which was not really safe anyway).
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8513.
Motivation:
Users who want to construct a `FlushConsolidationHandler` with a default `explicitFlushAfterFlushes` but non-default `consolidateWhenNoReadInProgress` may benefit from having an easy way to get the default "flush after flushes" count.
Modifications:
- Moved default `explicitFlushAfterFlushes` value to a public constant.
- Adjusted Javadoc accordingly.
Result:
Default `explicitFlushAfterFlushes` is accessible to callers.
Motivation:
During some other work I noticed we do not have any tests to ensure we correctly use SSLSessionBindingEvent. We should add some testing.
Modifications:
- Added unit test to verify we correctly implement it.
- Ignore the test when using Conscrypt as it not correctly implements it.
Result:
More tests for custom SSL impl.
Motivation:
We missed to skip a few tests that depend on the KeyManagerFactory if the used OpenSSL version / flavor not support it.
Modifications:
Add missing overrides.
Result:
Testsuite also passes for example when using LibreSSL.
Motivation:
In windows if the project is in a path that contains whitespace,
resources cannot be accessed and tests fail.
Modifications:
Adds ResourcesUtil.java in netty-common. Tests use ResourcesUtil.java to access a resource.
Result:
Being able to build netty in a path containing whitespace
Motivation:
SSLSession.putValue / getValue / removeValue / getValueNames must be thread-safe as it may be called from multiple threads. This is also the case in the OpenJDK implementation.
Modifications:
Guard with synchronized (this) blocks to keep the memory overhead low as we do not expect to have these called frequently.
Result:
SSLSession implementation is thread-safe.
Motivation:
ByteBuf supports “marker indexes”. The intended use case for these is if a speculative operation (e.g. decode) is in process the user can “mark” and interface and refer to it later if the operation isn’t successful (e.g. not enough data). However this is rarely used in practice,
requires extra memory to maintain, and introduces complexity in the state management for derived/pooled buffer initialization, resizing, and other operations which may modify reader/writer indexes.
Modifications:
Remove support for marking and adjust testcases / code.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8535.
Motivation:
If two requests from the same IP are reached at the same time, `connected.contains(remoteIp)` may return false in both threads.
Modifications:
Check if there is already a connection with the same IP using return values.
Result:
Become thread safe.
Motivation:
0d2e38d5d6 added supported for detection of peer supported algorithms but we missed to fix the testcase.
Modifications:
Fix test-case.
Result:
No more failing tests with BoringSSL.
Swallow SSL Exception "closing inbound before receiving peer's close_notify" when running on Java 11 (#8463)
Motivation:
When closing a inbound SSL connection before the remote peer has send a close notify, the Java JDK is trigger happy to throw an exception. This exception can be ignored since the connection is about to be closed.
The exception wasn't printed in Java 8, based on filtering on the exception message. In Java 11 the exception message has been changed.
Modifications:
Update the if statement to also filter/swallow the message on Java 11.
Result:
On Java 11 the exception isn't printed with log levels set to debug. The old behaviour is maintained.
Motivation:
The SSLSession.getLocalCertificates() / getLocalPrincipial() methods did not correctly return the local configured certificate / principal if a KeyManagerFactory was used when configure the SslContext.
Modifications:
- Correctly update the local certificates / principial when the key material is selected.
- Add test case that verifies the SSLSession after the handshake to ensure we correctly return all values.
Result:
SSLSession returns correct values also when KeyManagerFactory is used with the OpenSSL provider.
Motivation:
We did not return the pointer to SSL_CTX put to the internal datastructure of tcnative.
Modifications:
Return the correct pointer.
Result:
Methods work as documented in the javadocs.
* Correctly convert supported signature algorithms when using BoringSSL
Motivation:
BoringSSL uses different naming schemes for the signature algorithms so we need to adjust the regex to also handle these.
Modifications:
- Adjust SignatureAlgorithmConverter to handle BoringSSL naming scheme
- Ensure we do not include duplicates
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Correctly convert boringssl signature algorithm names.
Motivation:
We did not correctly convert between openssl / boringssl and java ciphers when using TLV1.3 which had different effects when either using openssl or boringssl.
- When using openssl and TLSv1.3 we always returned SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL as cipher name
- When using boringssl with TLSv1.3 we always returned an incorrect constructed cipher name which does not match what is defined by Java.
Modifications:
- Add correct mappings in CipherSuiteConverter for both openssl and boringssl
- Add unit tests for CipherSuiteConvert
- Add unit in SSLEngine which checks that we do not return SSL_NULL_WITH_NULL_NULL ever and that server and client returns the same cipher name.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8477.
Motivation:
The code for initiating a TLS handshake or renegotiation process is
currently difficult to reason about.
Modifications:
This commit introduces to clear paths for starting a handshake. The
first path is a normal handshake. The handshake is started and a timeout
is scheduled.
The second path is renegotiation. If the first handshake is incomplete,
the renegotiation promise is added as a listener to the handshake
promise. Otherwise, the renegotiation promise replaces the original
promsie. At that point the handshake is started again and a timeout is
scheduled.
Result:
Cleaner and easier to understand code.
Motivation:
We did not correctly schedule the handshake timeout if the handshake was either started by a flush(...) or if starttls was used.
Modifications:
- Correctly setup timeout in all cases
- Add unit tests.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8493.
Motivation:
If you attempt to write to a channel with an SslHandler prior to channelActive being called you can hit an assertion. In particular - if you write to a channel it forces some handshaking (through flush calls) to occur.
The AssertionError only happens on Java11+.
Modifications:
- Replace assert by an "early return" in case of the handshake be done already.
- Add unit test that verifies we do not hit the AssertionError anymore and that the future is correctly failed.
Result:
Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8479.
Motivation:
We should call wrapEngine(...) in our SSLEngineTest to correctly detect all errors in case of the OpenSSLEngine.
Modifications:
Add missing wrapEngine(...) calls.
Result:
More correct tests
Motivation:
We did not override all methods in OpenSslX509Certificate and delegate to the internal 509Certificate.
Modifications:
Add missing overrides.
Result:
More correct implementation
Motivation:
Due a bug in our implementation we tried to release the same ByteBuf two times when we failed to parse the X509Certificate as closing the ByteBufInputStream already closed it.
Modifications:
- Don't close the ByteBuf when closing the ByteBufInputStream
- Explicit release all ByteBufs after we are done parsing in a finally block.
- Add testcase.
Result:
Do not produce an IllegalReferenceCountException and throw the correct CertificateException.
Motivation:
SHA1 is a broken hash function and shouldn't be used anymore (see: https://shattered.io/).
Security scanning tools will raise this as an issue and it will reflect badly on netty and I, therefore, recommend to use a SHA2 hash function which is secure and won't be flagged by such tools.
Modifications:
Replaced insecure SHA1 based signing scheme with SHA2.
Result:
Modern and thus secure cryptographic primitives will be in use and won't be flagged by security scanning tools.
Motivation:
https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/8442 reported that we fail to build a SslContext when an invalid cipher is used with netty-tcnative-boringssl-static, while it worked before. This test verifies that this is now consistent with all other SSLEngine implementations.
Modifications:
Add test-case to verify consistent behaviour
Result:
More tests to assert consistent behaviour across SSLEngine implementations
Motivation:
201e984cb3 added support to use native TLSv1.3 support even with Java versions prior to 11. For this we try to detect if we need to wrap the used KeyManager or not. This testing code did create an X509Certificate[1] but does not correctly also set the certficiate on index 0. While this should be harmless we should better do the right thing and set it.
Modifications:
Correctly init the array.
Result:
Cleaner and more correct code.
Motivation:
0ddc62cec0 added support for TLSv1.3 when using openssl 1.1.1. Now that BoringSSL chromium-stable branch supports it as well we can also support it with netty-tcnative-boringssl-static.
During this some unit tests failed with BoringSSL which was caused by not correctly handling flush() while the handshake is still in progress.
Modification:
- Upgrade netty-tcnative version which also supports TLSv1.3 when using BoringSSL
- Correctly handle flush() when done while the handshake is still in progress in all cases.
Result:
Easier for people to enable TLSv1.3 when using native SSL impl.
Ensure flush() while handshake is in progress will always be honored.
Motivation:
OpenSsl used SelfSignedCertificate in its static init block to detect if KeyManagerFactory is supported. Unfortunally this only works when either sun.security.x509.* can be accessed or bouncycastle is on the classpath.
We should not depend on either of it.
This came up in https://github.com/netty/netty-tcnative/issues/404#issuecomment-431551890.
Modifications:
Just directly use the bytes to generate the X509Certificate and so not depend on sun.security.x509.* / bouncycastle.
Result:
Correctly be able to detect if KeyManagerFactory can be supported in all cases.
Motivation:
We had put some workaround in our tests due a bug in the Java11 implementation of TLSv1.3. This was now fixes as part of 11.0.1.
See https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211067.
Modifications:
Remove workaround in SSL tests.
Result:
Run all tests with supported TLS version.
Motivation:
At the moment it's only possible to use TLSv1.3 with netty-tcnative if Java 11 is used. It should be possible to do so even with Java 8, 9 and 10.
Modification:
Add a workaround to be able to use TLSv1.3 also when using Java version prior to Java 11 and the default X509ExtendedTrustManager is used.
Result:
Be able to use TLSv1.3 also with past versions of Java.
Motivation:
When the constructor of OpenSslEngine threw we could end up to self call SSL_free by ourself and then have the finalizer do the same which may lead to double free-ing and so SIGSEV.
Modifications:
Just call shutdown() when the constructor throws and so ensure SSL_free is guarded correctly in the finalizer.
Result:
No more SIGSEV possible.
Motivation:
TLSv1.3 support is included in java11 and is also supported by OpenSSL 1.1.1, so we should support when possible.
Modifications:
- Add support for TLSv1.3 using either the JDK implementation or the native implementation provided by netty-tcnative when compiled against openssl 1.1.1
- Adjust unit tests for semantics provided by TLSv1.3
- Correctly handle custom Provider implementations that not support TLSv1.3
Result:
Be able to use TLSv1.3 with netty.
Motivation:
JdkSslContext provides public constructors to wrap an existing `javax.net.ssl.SSLContext`.
Sadly, some options combinations are not possible with the existing constructors, eg:
* protocols is not exposed and always forced to null, so default protocols are always enforced
* startTls is not exposed and always forced to false
Modification:
Add full constructor that take protocols and startTls parameters.
Result:
It's possible to create a JdkSslContext from an existing SSLContext and still have control over protocols and startTls
Motivation:
It is possible that a client is unable to locate a certificate alias given the list of issuers and key types. In this case the X509KeyManager
will return a null which when past to the OpenSslKeyMaterialProvider implementation may produce a NPE. If no matching alias could be found we should not
call OpenSslKeyMaterialProvider at all which is also consistent what OpenJDK does.
Modifications:
- Add null check before calling OpenSslKeyMaterialProvider
- Add unit test.
Result:
No more NPE caused by passing null as client alias.
Motivation:
Before when on server-side we just called the X509KeyManager methods when handshake() was called the first time which is not quite correct as we may not have received the full SSL hello / handshake and so could not extra for example the SNI hostname that was requested.
OpenSSL exposes the SSL_CTX_set_cert_cb function which allows to set a callback which is executed at the correct moment, so we should use it. This also allows us to support more methods of ExtendedSSLSession easily.
Modifications:
- Make use of new methods exposed by netty-tcnative since https://github.com/netty/netty-tcnative/pull/388 to ensure we select the key material at the correct time.
- Implement more methods of ExtendedOpenSslSession
- Add unit tests to ensure we are able to retrieve various things on server-side in the X509KeyManager and so verify it is called at the correct time.
- Simplify code by using new netty-tcnative methods.
Result:
More correct implementation for server-side usage and more complete implemented of ExtendedSSLSession.
Motivation:
a208f6dc7c added a testcase which uses hostname validation which may not be supported by OpenSSL depending on the version that is used. We should check first before we try to use it.
Modifications:
Add assumeTrue(...) check to ensure hostname validation is supported before trying to run the test.
Result:
No more test-failures on OpenSSL versions < 1.0.2.
Motivation:
When a X509TrustManager is used while configure the SslContext the JDK automatically does some extra checks during validation of provided certs by the remote peer. We should do the same when our native implementation is used.
Modification:
- Automatically wrap a X509TrustManager and so do the same validations as the JDK does.
- Add unit tests.
Result:
More consistent behaviour. Fixes https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/6664.
Motivation:
4d1458604a did fix some leaks in SniClientTest but missed the ones in SniClientJava8TestUtil.
Modifications:
Correctly release SslContext.
Result:
No more leaks in SNI tests.
Motivation:
I noticed that we had some errors showing up in a test (which did not fail it tho) because we tried to full-fill the promise multiples times.
Modifications:
Use trySuccess(...) as we may produce multiple exceptions.
Result:
Less errors during test-run.
Motivation:
Java9 added getStatusResponses() to ExtendedSSLSession which we should correctly support when possible.
Modifications:
Implement the method correctly.
Result:
More complete and correct implementation.
Motivation:
6ed7c6c75d added support for ExtendedOpenSslSession but we did not override getStatusResponses(). This lead to test failures on java9.
Modifications:
Implement ExtendedOpenSslSession.getStatusResponses() so it just returns an empty list.
Result:
Test pass again on Java9.
Motivation:
6ed7c6c75d added a test which blindly assumed we can use a KeyManagerFactory all the time. This is only true if have OpenSSL 1.0.2 or later, which may not be the case.
Modifications:
Only use KeyManagerFactory in test if the OpenSSL version does support it.
Result:
More robust tests.
Motivation:
When an ExtendedSSLSession is used its possible to do more strict checking of the keys during handshake. We should do this whenever possible.
Modification:
- Return an ExtendedSSLSession when using client-mode and Java7+
- Add unit test
- Simplify unit tests
Result:
More consistent behaviour.
* PemPrivateKey.toPem(...) should throw IllegalArgumentException when PrivateKey which does not support encoding is used.
Motivation:
At the moment when a PrivateKey is used that does not support encoding we throw a NPE when trying to convert the key. We should better throw an IllegalArgumentException with the details about what key we tried to encode.
Modifications:
- Check if PrivateKey.getEncoded() returns null and if so throw an IllegalArgumentException
- Add unit test.
Result:
Better handling of non-supported PrivateKey implementations.
Motivation:
5aaa16b24c introduced a testcase for specific ciphersuites and checked if these are supported by our native implementation before running it. Unfortunally this is not good enough as even on the JDK it may not be supported on various JDK versions (like Java7). Beside this the test leaked buffers.
Modifications:
- Correctly check if ciphersuite is supported on each SslProvider before trying to run test.
- Fix buffer leaks.
Result:
Testsuite pass again on Java7 and others when -Pleak is used.
