strategy for: "Certificates Class3" problem and "New Roots & Escrow"
- Multimember Escrow system proposal by Mario: HR problem, CRL signing problem
Overview Projects Board (wiki:OverviewProjectsBoard) topics for SA (Update)
- WIP
- Dirk, Ted: translingo cacert upload.pl bug #913, still open
- Dirk: regular Thawte patches, still open
- 15.php - add assurers state at bottom of page, still open
- Special Case: in production system user with 120 pts: 60 + 30 + 30 F2F (!!)
- Michael to add sql injection onto special testuser
Dirk: strategy for: "Certificates Class3" problem and "New Roots & Escrow"
- class3 prob: signing server receives identifier for which cert certs to issue
- Michael: webdb is the problem, to correct on several code snippests
- "New Roots" makes no sense with Software not Audit Ready
- proposal: one event: old "new" clase3 (A), create new root (B), new class3 (C), (A) to apply first
- Software and "Audit Ready" topic
- software needs documented
- each step has to be traceable
eg. logical deletions -> delete mark, but content shouldn't be deleted
assurances -> deletable by support or by administrative increases
- temporary administrative increases
- admin for organisation assurerance
- delete account function from support console
- may be more
- full code review
- in the past this leads to Software Camp Innsbruck - Software is not auditable
- we have procedures for updates, but new critical bugs needs to be fixed
- also Policy related fixes
- critical mass of developers
- policy conformity
- fix major bugs
Arbitration case a20110312.1 "Weak keys"
- Weak keys ... check databases, revoke keys and so on
- search keys from database script
- testservers: all software assessors should have console access onto all related servers (cacert1, git)
- ted has access to test1.cacert.at
- in database is filename of pem encoded cert file
- in database there is some info, but not valueable
- rsa key lengths vs. dsa key lengths, first check rsa keys
- tests finished, needs coding, and running
- generate emails based on the exec results
- Michael: don't accept weak csr's
- Ted: 4 procedures to check: user client cert, user server cert, org client cert, org server cert
- Michael: account.php 23 matches regarding openssl, -7 text matches
- Michael: api - running a script with parameters /www/api
- web api (SOA)
- Ted: relevant positions to find - transfer to signer
- Michael: its to late, to send user responses
- proposed fix till end of week, review upcoming monday
- revocation of too small keys, info to board
- next meeting: Tuesday, March 29, 2011 22:00
- Ted: pushed a branch to git: translingo cacert upload.pl bug #913
- Signer deployment (Andreas/Markus), Michael will contact Andreas
- meeting closed [0:45]
