[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 0/3] package/ca-certificates improvements

[Martin Bark]

All,

This patch set includes the following improvements to ca-certificates:

1. fix a bug meaning one of the hashes in ${TARGET_DIR}/etc/ssl/certs was wrong
2. fix rebuilds
3. make the contents of ${TARGET_DIR}/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certiicates.crt reproducible.

The result of these patches means ${TARGET_DIR}/etc/ssl/certs now exactly matches Ubuntu 18.04 and Debian sid which both use ca-certiicates 20180409 too

Thanks

Martin

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 1/3] package/ca-certificates: don't hash certificates.crt

[Martin Bark]

Currently c_rehash mistakenly hashes the certificates bundle
certificates.crt resulting in ${TAGET_DIR}/etc/ssl/certs/128805a3.0
incorrectly linking to ca-certificates.crt when it should be linked to
EE_Certification_Centre_Root_CA_2.pem

To fix this install certificates.crt to /etc/ssl/certs after we run
c_rehash to prevent it getting hashed by mistake.

Note: $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/ssl/certs/ is already removed during install so
this fix also works for rebuilds.

Hello,

I can't reproduce this issue here:

output/target$ ls -l etc/ssl/certs/128805a3.0 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 thomas thomas 35 Jun 17 20:58 etc/ssl/certs/128805a3.0 -> EE_Certification_Centre_Root_CA.pem

Also, during the review, you said that you noticed this problem when
comparing the /etc/ssl/certs generated by Buildroot with the one
available in Ubuntu.

On Fedora, it looks just like this:

$ ls -l /etc/ssl/certs/
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   49 May 18 13:21 ca-bundle.crt -> /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/tls-ca-bundle.pem
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   55 May 18 13:21 ca-bundle.trust.crt -> /etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/openssl/ca-bundle.trust.crt
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2516 Apr  3 13:18 Makefile

So it really doesn't look like what Buildroot produces. But I'm not
familiar at all with those certificates.

Peter, since you've reviewed the previous iteration of this patch
series, perhaps you can take care of merging it ?

Thanks!

Did you check other hashes under etc/ssl/certs/ ? Check for any hashes
that link to ca-certificates.crt. I suspect you have a different hash
pointing to ca-certificates.

The ca-certificates package in Buildroot is based on the Debian
package.  Buildroot currently uses version 20180409 which is the same
as currently used by Ubuntu 18.04 and Debian sid hence the contents of
etc/ssl/certs should match.

The Red Hat based distros and Arch Linux organise their certificates
slightly differently.  You will not be able to do an exact comparison
but in the end they achieve the same results as Debian, Ubuntu and
Buildroot.

There are no files in /etc/ssl/certs that are symlinks to
ca-certificates.crt:

output/target$ ls -l etc/ssl/certs/| grep ca-certificates.crt
-rw-r--r-- 1 thomas thomas 207436 Jun 18 15:30 ca-certificates.crt

I did some more testing and found sometimes by chance it does work,
however, i was able to reproduce the issue as follows

 docker run -it --rm buildroot/base:20180318.1724 bash
 git clone git://git.busybox.net/buildroot
 cd buildroot
 make olddefconfig
 make ca-certificates

you will see an output like this at the end of the build

 # Create symlinks to the certificates by their hash values
 /home/br-user/buildroot/output/host/bin/c_rehash
/home/br-user/buildroot/output/target/etc/ssl/certs
 Doing /home/br-user/buildroot/output/target/etc/ssl/certs
 WARNING: Skipping duplicate certificate OpenTrust_Root_CA_G1.pem

and one the the hashes will be wrong

 $ ls -l output/target/etc/ssl/certs/| grep ca-certificates.crt
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 br-user br-user     19 Jun 21 21:52 87229d21.0 ->
ca-certificates.crt

the incorrect hash is the one mentioned in the warning

 $ ls -l /etc/ssl/certs/87229d21.0
 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Mar 18 16:30 /etc/ssl/certs/87229d21.0 ->
OpenTrust_Root_CA_G1.pem

The key issue is the

  WARNING: Skipping duplicate certificate xxxxx

where xxxx is the name of one of the files under etc/ssl/certs.
Sometimes it's ca-certificates.crt and hence you don't see any issue
(as you found).  Sometime it's one of the CA files which is the bug
i'm trying to fix.  You can run c_rehash directly

 ./output/host/bin/c_rehash ./output/target/etc/ssl/certs

and you will see the warning.  If you rm
output/target/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt and try again then the
warning will go.

I had not released quite how random the bug.  It certainly is not
always EE_Certification_Centre_Root_CA.pem, it can be any CA that goes
wrong.  The commit message could be changed to make it clearer the bug
does not allows happen to EE_Certification_Centre_Root_CA.pem but i'm
100% sure this is a bug that needs fixing.

Thanks

 So, if I understand correctly, what happens is this:

1. certificates get installed in /etc/ssl/certs.

2. All the certificates are bundled into a ca-certificates.crt file.

3. c_rehash is run. It looks at each certificate, calculates the hash, and
creates a symlink from that hash to the certificate.

 The problem is that if ca-certificates.crt exists already, c_rehash will take
some random certificate from it and create a symlink to ca-certificates.crt
instead of to the real certificate file. But depending on the order of
evaluation of the different certificate files, it may actually make the symlink
point to the real certificate.

 What you propose looks like the good solution for it. Except in case of
rebuild, so you should remove /etc/ssl/ca-certificates.crt before running
c_rehash. That would also remove the need for patch 2 I think.

 Could you check if I'm correct, and if so, resubmit the series with:

- the additional rm -f;
- a commit message that includes the explanation above;
- drops patch 2.

 If patch 2 really is needed, it needs a better explanation.

 Arnout

?Investigating a bit more turns out that I was rather wrong. The rm -f is
already there, as correctly noted in your commit message. And patch 2 really is
needed, it fixes a completely different set of duplicates.


?So I've extended the commit message a little and applied to master, thanks.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 2/3] package/ca-certificates: fix rebuilds

[Martin Bark]

Rebuilding ca-certificates using make ca-certificates-rebuild
caused duplicate certificates to be installed in the target.  Fix this
by cleaning the build directory before building the package.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 3/3] package/ca-certificates: create ca-certificates.crt reproducibly

[Martin Bark]

Sort the certificates into alphabetical order so the contents of
ca-certificates.crt can be built reproducibly.

Note: The certificates are sorted uppercase then lowercase filenames
so the contents of ca-certificates.crt matches the source debian package.
