Date: Mon, 21 May 2018 13:38:50 -0400 Message-Id: <20180521173853.5172-2-zackw@panix.com> In-Reply-To: <20180521173853.5172-1-zackw@panix.com> References: <20180521173853.5172-1-zackw@panix.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 The functions encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r, cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity should not be used in new programs, because they use the DES block cipher, which is unacceptably weak by modern standards. Demote all of them to compatibility symbols, and remove their prototypes from installed headers. cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity were already compat symbols when glibc was configured with --disable-obsolete-rpc. This is running a little ahead of POSIX, where encrypt and setkey are still part of the current standard, but I doubt anyone will mind. See for the progress of their removal from POSIX. The entire "DES Encryption" section is dropped from the manual, as is the mention of AUTH_DES and FIPS 140-2 in the introduction to crypt.texi. The documentation of 'memfrob' cross-referenced the DES Encryption section, which is replaced by a hyperlink to libgcrypt, and while I was in there I spruced up the actual documentation of 'memfrob' and 'strfry' a little. It's still fairly jokey, because those functions _are_ jokes, but they do also have real use cases, so people trying to use them for real should have all the information they need. DES-based authentication for Sun RPC is also insecure and should be deprecated or even removed, but maybe that can be left as TI-RPC's problem. * posix/unistd.h: Do not declare encrypt. * stdlib/stdlib.h: Do not declare setkey. * crypt/crypt.h: Do not declare encrypt, setkey, encrypt_r, setkey_r. * sunrpc/Makefile: Do not install des_crypt.h nor rpc_des.h. * crypt/Versions: Add an empty stanza for GLIBC_2.28. * crypt/crypt-entry.c: Make fcrypt a compat symbol. * crypt/crypt_util.c: Make encrypt, encrypt_r, setkey, setkey_r into compat symbols. Don't define initial_perm if it's not going to be used. * crypt/cert.c: Link explicitly with the expected versions for setkey and encrypt. If they are not available at all, mark the test as unsupported. * sunrpc/des_crypt.c: Unconditionally block linkage with cbc_crypt and ecb_crypt for new binaries. * sunrpc/des_soft.c: Unconditionally block linkage with des_setparity for new binaries. * manual/crypt.texi: Remove the entire "DES Encryption" section. Also remove the paragraph talking about FIPS 140-2 from the introduction. * manual/string.texi (strfry, memfrob): Revise. Recommend use of libgcrypt for "real" encryption, not DES. * conform/data/stdlib.h-data: Do not expect setkey. * conform/data/unistd.h-data: Do not expect encrypt. --- NEWS | 12 +++ conform/data/stdlib.h-data | 3 - conform/data/unistd.h-data | 3 - crypt/Versions | 3 + crypt/cert.c | 29 ++++++ crypt/crypt-entry.c | 15 +-- crypt/crypt.h | 18 +--- crypt/crypt_util.c | 9 ++ manual/crypt.texi | 201 ------------------------------------- manual/string.texi | 82 +++++++-------- posix/unistd.h | 9 -- stdlib/stdlib.h | 6 -- sunrpc/Makefile | 2 +- sunrpc/des_crypt.c | 7 +- sunrpc/des_soft.c | 2 +- 15 files changed, 105 insertions(+), 296 deletions(-) diff --git a/NEWS b/NEWS index bade9e4765..0bd21948f6 100644 --- a/NEWS +++ b/NEWS @@ -74,6 +74,18 @@ Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility: and could not usefully be used with the GNU C Library on systems with version 3.1 or later of the Linux kernel. +* The obsolete functions 'encrypt', 'encrypt_r', 'setkey', 'setkey_r', + 'cbc_crypt', 'ecb_crypt', and 'des_setparity' are no longer available to + newly linked binaries, and the headers and + are no longer installed.
