Re: How to configure a "proxy home" page ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I mean, for example:

SSL_ERROR_CLIENT_DOES_NOT_KNOW_THIS_CA

during TLS negotiation between client and proxy.

To be separated from rare cases when real world CA exists, but not yet included to well-known CA's bundle.

Something like this. Now we're can't differentiate UNKNOWN_ISSUES error - it is external or internal issue.

By the way, Amos. I have an idea spinning around. Is it possible to specify the SSL error of the unknown certificate issuer for the correct processing of the situation when the client does not have a proxy certificate installed? This would greatly facilitate the task that we are discussing.

We're can, in this case, just use deny_info to redirect client to proxy page. ;-)

The problem is not install proxy CA. The problem is identify client

That is exactly the problem. And I have yet to find a solution for
that.

Current method is instruct everyone - with a printed paper in the
office
- to connect to proxy.company-name.lan and then get further
instructions
from the page. This works, but an automatic splash page would be more
elegant.

it's possible to install splash page, but not install trusted authority
certificate.  Using such authority on a proxy is the MITM attack and
whole
SSL has been designed to prevent this.
Heh. If SSL designed - why SSL Bump itself possible? ;):-P
As all our SSL-Bump documentation should be saying:

   when TLS is used properly SSL-Bump *does not work*.

A client checking the cert validity and producing _its own_ error page
about missing/unknown/untrusted CA is one of those cases. Since the
client is producing the "page" itself there is no possibility of Squid
replacing that with something else.
Amos,

squid is irrelevant here. "Used properly" and "Implemented properly",
and, especially, "Designed properly" - which means "Secure by design",
like SSH or The Onion Router.

HTTPS is *NOT*.

You are missing the point. Sometimes TLS *is* implemented properly.

Squid is very relevant here because it is the agent producing the
un-verifiable certificate. The certificate is un-verifiable exactly
because Squids own CA is being used and the client does not trust that CA.
Waaaaaaaa, Amos, why you say "unverifiable"? 
Because that is the situation. The client software cannot silently
verify the certificate nor automatically install the not-trusted CA to
cause that *previous* verification attempt to succeed.
Sure. User always should:

a) Have root/administrative privilegies to install any CA in trusted
store on client
b) Device always asks users "Hey, somebody tries to install CA with
fingerprint blah-blah-blah.... you trust them? Install? (Yes/No)"

We're not talking about forced silently push proxy CA to client, right?
You can show CA to users,
Er, you are now going in circles.

The initial problem was that it is not possible to verify the cert
automatically *without* showing the user things. Requiring the user to
see something to get around that problem ...
Yes. We're want just to determine - is proxy CA installed? and if not,
redirect user to page to make desicion - install/not install. Get
internet/remain locally ;)
On this page we're can inform user about all require things: our CPS,
our privacy policy, warnings, legal issues, CA fingerprint, CA issuer
etc. ;)

This seems better? All same like adult CA does :)

We're all understand we're can't silently push any CA to client ;) This
is illegal, technically impossible, insecure....... ;)
