This was just debugging tip for Klaus. I think that the only case when
sending a SIP reply back is when the client presents a valid certificate
but the common name (or any other field used for authentication) is
invalid. That is if the client presented a valid certificate but incorrect
one then we should reject politely, otherwise tls handshake just fails.
No, I think you should have a verify all option.
You could use then the script to allow access to certain resources only
to certain clients, but the certificate validity checks should be done
at the tls level.
BTW: the above example should use exit -1 instead of break (to force
close the tls connection, which otherwise would remain open until it
timeouts or the remote side closes).

Yes, I think so, a normal SIP implementation should speak TLSv1.

Klaus, i don't think this is a bug ... i think that the hello is
always v2 and then (with the server hello message) the handshake is
upgraded to v3 or tlsv1. This way, you can have an sslv2-only client
try connecting to any server, but the server will send back sslv3 or
tlsv1 server hello, thus disconnecting the client.
Yes, I think this is correct.
The protocol version should be set to
TLSv1 afterwards, you can test this with @tls.version: A normal TLSv1 server will accept only TLS hello
messages (version =
3.1) and since sip is supposed to work only with TLS, this should be the
default (tls_method=TLS_USE_TLSv1).
The SSLv23 stuff will accept any type of hello. A client
with the SSLv23 method will send a hello v2 message, indicating in it
also tls and ssl 3.0 support (they will include tls specific ciphers
a.s.o). The client sending v2 hellos is not exactly standard behaviour
for TLS. It is a hack for backward compatibility, but a TLS only server
will not accept it.
One of the clients that used a SSLv23 equivalent was Windows Messenger
(it was doing this in 2003 when I wrote my ser tls code).
The tls method should be configurable to allow older/strange clients
support, but it should default to TLSv1 (btw: this is how you can reject
v2 clients without SSL_OP_NO_SSLv2).
Right now it defaults to SSLv23, should we change the defaults ? if
(@tls.version == "SSLv2") {
sl_send_reply("400", "Bad TLS protocol version");
break;
}
I think we should not handle TLS errors from the script. A TLS client
will expect the handshake phase to fail if it uses an unsupported SSL
version or the wrong certificate. Accepting the ssl connection and then
returning a SIP error or plainly dropping it, it's just wrong IMHO and
not very TLS frienldy/conformant. That's what the handshake phase for. Moreover if you go to the trouble to accept the
connection just to
reject it immediately you will waste more resources.
If you don't want to accept V2, then just change the method.
For cetificates: you either verify them (you can have verify off, verify
but don't check host name/ip, verify all) or not.
The verification process does not include checking of common name, subject
alternative name and other certificate fields. This is what you should do
in the script.
