Most SSL servers will use a certificiate with OCSP information. OCSP querying (checking for revoked certificates) is enabled by default. However, in bug 1456489, the maintainers of the Firefox network engine have decided that such requests MUST NOT be done on the primary thread. I see Thunderbird use a synchronous query to the LDAP server, directly from the main thread. This causes all subsequent I/O to happen on the main thread too, which the Firefox core code refuses to execute, and tells the caller that it's a bad certificate - which causes the LDAP/SSL connection to fail. The solution is to move LDAP querying to a background thread, and report the results to the main thread.

So many moving parts, but I think I've got a grasp on it now. The `nsLDAPConnection` already has a thread for handling blocking ldap operations, however a lot of the logic still happens out in the main thread (in `nsLDAPOperation`) before handing off to the worker thread. Including the bind operation, which is where our problem happens (the bind immediately goes off and tries to sort out the SSL cert, which fails because we're still on the main thread). My plan is to run more of the ldap operation code into the worker thread, which should be simple enough (although the logic is split up over a bunch of different objects which obfuscates things a bit). Hopefully have a patch to try out tomorrow.

LDAP over SSL (LDAPS) seems to be deprecated in favour of the StartTLS extension. (but see also this [blog post](https://forum.forgerock.com/2015/04/ldaps-or-starttls-that-is-the-question/) which argues in favour of LDAPS). But really, we should be supporting both. Anyway. Getting the handshake running on the STS thread is easy enough, but I'm still trying to figure out why my connections are failing. (debugging is tricky - there are loads of layers to step through, and on a real network connection it'll time out anyway while you're inspecting it!) Just to help me mentally organise my findings so far (I don't expect any of this to make much sense, but I find trying to write it down helps!): - The C++ LDAP code uses [`libprldap`](https://searchfox.org/comm-central/search?q=libprldap&case=false®exp=false&path=) to adapt the C ldap API to use NSPR sockets, using an IO function table (connect, read, write,poll, close etc...). - When in SSL mode, some of those IO functions are replaced. - The replacement SSL connect function first calls the original plaintext connect function, then uses the TLS socket provider (nsTLSSocketProvider, called "starttls") to upgrade the still-unused socket to a secure one (but nothing happens immediately - the negotiation is deferred until the first read/write). - when an LDAP operation is performed, the first data write triggers the TLS/SSL negotiation. One of the really confusing things was that it uses the "starttls" socketprovider to set up the encryption. But this is totally unrelated to the 'startTLS' extension in LDAPv3. Apparently some LDAP servers don't support SSLv3, and "starttls" provides a way to make sure SSLv2 is used. >From the C++ side of things: - `nsLDAPConnection` defers setting up the LDAP stuff until the host name is resolved ([`OnLookupComplete`](https://searchfox.org/comm-central/source/ldap/xpcom/src/nsLDAPConnection.cpp#434) is called). - The c-api LDAP is set up, [still in `OnLookupComplete`](https://searchfox.org/comm-central/source/ldap/xpcom/src/nsLDAPConnection.cpp#506) - If we're using SSL, then [`nsLDAPInstallSSL`](https://searchfox.org/comm-central/search?q=nsLDAPInstallSSL&path=) is called to wrap the IO functions with the TLS-aware ones. - At some point, a new `nsLDAPOperation` will be created and invoked. - The operation will call a C API ldap function which will cause the first data to be sent, which will in turn trigger the TLS handshaking. - the operation will be passed to [`nsLDAPConnection::AddPendingOperation()`](https://searchfox.org/comm-central/search?q=AddPendingOperation&path=), which polls for responses on a separate thread. I'm feeling a bit fried on this one. But I've still got lots of avenues to explore. Weekend now. Fresh look at it on Monday.

I implemented a special nsIRunnable for the SimpleBind method, because I erroneously thought that was a special case which triggered the SSL negotiation (it's not - it's just whatever operation first runs over the connection). But it's enough to work on a proof of concept. A proper fix would generalise it (and likely clarify a lot of the logic currently smeared across nsLDAPConnection and nsLDAPOperation). Needless to say, it still doesn't work: the connection fails. I've got the ldap.adams.edu LDAP server configured, and I open the addressbook and start entering a name to look up. ldap.adams.edu is the only public LDAP server I've found which listens on both plain (port 389) and SSL (port 636) LDAP ports.

It should have been called nsStartTLSSocketProvider. That class does a socket with "initial plaintext, after some protocol specific handshake, agree to raise the socket into speaking SSL/TLS". nsSSLSocketProvider is ambiguous. It should have been called nsSSLorTLSSocketProvider. This is a socket with "speak the SSL/TLS protocol immediately, wrap the inner protocol, and the inner protocol doesn't have to know anything about it". The versions for SSL and TLS went from: - SSL 2 - SSL 3 - TLS 1.0 - TLS 1.1 - TLS 1.2 - TLS 1.3 So SSL and TLS are just old and newer versions of each other, and at some time some people decided to rename it, very confusing. At the time StartTLS was introduced, the most recent available version had already arrived at TLS, which is why it wasn't called StartSSL, but StartTLS. I'm not sure why you talked about SSL v2. That's very old, and nobody should be using it any more. Even SSL v3 shouldn't be used anymore. If you had seen some code mentioning SSL v2, it might have been because of another detail. If a client and a server start to speak with each other about SSL/TLS (either immediately with plain SSL/TLS, or at the time they upgrade to plaintext socket to SSL/TLS in the StartTLS scenario), they exchange an initial handshake message. That handshake message can either be "modern" with a list of flexible extensions. Or, that handshake can be "SSL v2 compatible". Some servers simply gave strange errors when talking to them with the initial modern handshake, so a handshake that's backwards comaptible was tried in some scenarios. Most of what I wrote here shouldn't matter much for the scope of this bug, but might help you understand better what's happening. However, depending on the server port you're connecting to, you get one code path or the other. If you connect to a server port that expects to speak SSL/TLS immediately (LDAPS), with an outer SSL/TLS layer, and an inner plaintext LDAP protocol layer, then you should see that the nsSSLSocketProvider code is reached. In this scenario, I assume the SSL/TLS handshake is executed on the thread that initiates the socket connection. If you connect to a plaintext server port, that optionally can upgrade to SSL/TLS by using StartTLS, then the SSL/TLS handshake will happen later than the initial connect. That SSL/TLS handshake happening at StartTLS upgrade time is probably executed on the thread that handles the data flow on the socket. Depending on the implementation, that might not be the same thread that trigger the initial socket connection. For the scope of this bug, I'd focus on the code that worked in the past. If so far we had only supported SSL/TLS, I'd try to get that work first, and worry about StartTLS support later.

However, what they do here, they immediately call ->StartTLS() on that socket. They don't wait for some plaintext back and forth talk to negotiate when the time has come to do that, they do it immediately. So you could say, they do the functional equivalent of a SSL/TLS socket provider, and they don't need the ability to delay the upgrade of the socket to a later time. That LDAP glue code also has a very old comment, that explains the motivation for doing that: // If possible we want to avoid using SSLv2, as this can confuse // some directory servers (notably the netscape 4.1 ds). The only // way that PSM provides for us to do this is to use a socket that can // be used for the STARTTLS protocol, because the STARTTLS protocol disallows // the use of SSLv2. This means, that code was written at a time when SSL v2 was still widely used. But they considered it insecure and didn't want to use it for LDAP. They didn't find another mechanism from within the LDAP code to disable SSL v2. That's why they abused that alternative TLSSocketProvider == StartTLSSocketProvider, to trick the underlying code into disabling the older SSL v2 protocol. Nowadays we should no longer need that "trick". That code here should be changed to call sps->GetSocketProvider("ssl", getter_AddRefs(sslSocketProvider)) and the call to ->StartTLS should be removed, as it's unnecessary. This might not be helpful for this bug here, but it would be a correctness cleanup. Later, once we get to fix bug 826662, we'd introduce an alternative code path that calls GetSocketProvider("startssl", ...), but that would be based on a new checkbox added to the user interface, which would allow the user to explicitly request the StartTLS upgrade with the server, instead of speaking the immediate SSL/TLS. We already offer that choice for mail servers (connection security: either none, or SSL/TLS, or StartTLS). Today, the UI for LDAP servers only offers SSL/TLS.

I figured the "starttls" usage was probably a workaround, but was never sure it wasn't just me missing something important. Is there still any reason for the LDAP SSL (ie port 636) path to open a plain socket, then upgrade it to SSL/TLS, rather than just asking the "ssl" socket provider to open a SSL/TLS connection in the first place?

If we ever want to support StartTLS, you'll need to use the approach "create socket, do plaintext negotiation, then upgrade to SSL/TLS". That means we'll eventually need a code path that is similar to the one today. But for now, if it means simplification, it seems fine to open the SSL/TLS socket directly.

This patch ditches the startTLS- immediately-to-get-sslv2 hack, and uses the TLS/SSL socketprovider instead. The socketprovider seems happy, but the first traffic over the connection fails (no wrong-thread asserts though!). I assume the handshaking is failing somewhere, but I haven't had a chance to debug down through all the layers yet, but that's the next thing I'll do. I'm uploading this patch now to see if there's anything I'm obviously doing wrong. Just to confirm, the adams LDAP server (which I'm using to test against) definitely supports LDAP-over-SSL: ``` $ ldapsearch -v -x -H "ldaps://ldap.adams.edu" -b ou=people,dc=adams,dc=edu -s sub "(cn=*)" cn mail sn ``` Seems to work fine for me, over port 636. More details on the patch: I'm not so happy with the way it's still opening a plain TCP connection then attempting to upgrade it via nsISocketProvider::AddToSocket(). I'd rather directly open the socket using the TLS/SSL version of nsISocketProvider::NewSocket(), but it's complicated by all the layers of indirection we're going through. We use libprldap to provide the IO functions (and DNS hooks and mutex primitives) to interface ldap with the NSPR sockets, but libprldap doesn't know about nsISocketProvider. So we've got helpers in `ldap/xpcom/src/nsLDAPSecurityGlue.cpp` which monkey-patch the libprldap functions and upgrade the connection. Ideally, it'd just be a matter of replacing the "connect" function with a TLS/SSL one, but the function does a whole lot of (potential) DNS lookup stuff synchronously (we've already done an async DNS lookup in advance), so instead we call the original function then call AddToSocket() upon it. I think it'd be much cleaner to ditch libprldap entirely, and provide the interfacing on the C++ side (ie in nsLDAPSecurityGlue.cpp) where we have access to `nsISockerProvider`. But that means moving all the libprldap functionality out into nsLDAPSecurityGlue. It'd be a lot less code overall, but is way more intrusive than I'd like, especially just for this bug!

And I wasn't aware how special our ldap network code is. My explanations from comment 16 and comment 17 weren't a suggestion how to fix this bug. I only wanted to give you more background information, because you were wondering about some of this details in your comment before it. Your latest patch does very little, and only changes that socket provider detail. That will be insufficient to fix this bug. You noticed how the socket code uses layers of functions. Yes, it makes use of NSPR file descriptor layering. It allows to implement a wrapped connection, where an outer protocol and an innner protocol is spoken. One layer represents the plain socket that is accessed by the application protocol code (here: LDAP). When using SSL/TLS, this isn't the usual plain implementation of a socket. Instead, it uses a socket implementation from mozilla/security/manager, that provides special implementations for the I/O functions. That's implemented in nsNSSIOLayer.cpp, and that code module is called "PSM". That application level layer glues the I/O functions to the raw underlying implementation of SSL/TLS, which is provided by the NSS library. If the application code wants to connect/read/write, the call is sent to a function from nsNSSIOLayer (e.g. PSMSend), which in turn redirects to ssl_* functions. Ldap code -> PSM code -> NSS code. The NSS socket layer keep tracks of the additional handshaking and other stuff that needs to be exchanged on the raw socket, in order to make the socket secure. The first part of that is to initiate a handshake between the server and the client. That is, the first time you read or write to the socket, the NSS layer will detect that. It will start communicating with the other side to exchange a few message in both directions, until both sides are happy with the connection. Only after this has happened, the NSS layer will accept the raw application data (LDAP) and encapsulate it into encrypted packages for secure transport. The first read/write activity by the application should trigger the handshake. Because that initial handshake can take some time, the usual approach is to use async network code. The LDAP application should use async reading and writing on the socket, until it succeeds.

Doh. I'd missed the fact that the SSL/TLS AddToSocket() layering doesn't work upon an already-connected socket. Too much StartTLS on the brain :-) > However, prldap functions prldap_connect -> prldap_try_one_address hide the > steps of: > - get socket fd > - set socket options (such as blocking or nonblocking) > - call PR_Connect on that socket (which doesn't have the SSL/TLS layer yet) prldap_connect() also does a bunch of host lookup stuff, which makes it trickier for the nsLDAPSSLSecurityGlue.cpp code to just patch in a replacement connect function. (And the existing LDAP C++ code does it's own host resolution in advance anyway. But only on the first host, if there are multiple. There are other complicating factors too, of course. Sighs). > In other words, I've found out the second patch is useless right now, and actually counterproductive, unless we rewrite parts of prldap. Agreed. I actually think it'd tidy things up a lot if I essentially merged prldap and nsLDAPSSLSecurityGlue.cpp, and provided three separate connect() functions: 1) plain text: calls PR_OpenTCPSocket() 2) LDAPS: calls NewSocket() on the SSL/TLS socket provider 3) startTLS: calls NewSocket() on the startTLS socket provider (upgrading it via startTLS(), in sync with sending the appropriate LDAP protocol request to switch to TLS). On the LDAP side, anything that can block (ie prettymuch anything involving sockets :- ) needs moving off the main thread. It's kind of half way there - it kicks requests off on the main thread, then dispatches to a separate thread to await the result.

I think this is probably the Right Thing (tm) to do anyway: the libldap API seems to support async IO pretty comprehensively. A little bugzilla archeology suggests that libldap had troubles with async IO (on Linux, particularly) up to about 2002, but it _looks_ like it's been addressed (fingers crossed!). Annoyingly, the C++ LDAP code calls only the blocking versions of the libldap APIs. But usually with a zero timeout, so it can poll repeatedly and use them in a kind-of async manner. > As a quick experiment I changed prldap to request a nonblocking socket (see below), but that fails earlier. We'd need to change our ldap code to expect the typical "would block" scenario from sockets, and try again. Yes it needs to be handled higher up - setting the libldap session to async, and calling the async variants of the API. The `LDAP_X_EXTIOF_OPT_NONBLOCKING` is (I think) just used to pass into hooked IO functions, so they know libldap wants a non-blocking socket.

Yes, I'm running it on a background thread (our LDAPConnection creates one to dispatch IO to. It used to start operations on the main thread and use the background thread to handle responses, but I'm moving all the IO onto the background thread).

So, from the outside: as someone just trying to open a secure socket connection (using the SSL/TLS or StartTLS socketproviders), on my own background thread, what am I doing wrong that causes me to hit this assertion? Should I be dispatching all my IO on the SocketTransportService? (I mean, I could do that without too much trouble, but it seems very odd...)

It's currently opening `PRFileDesc`-based sockets using `PR_OpenTCPSocket` for the plain connection. Which works fine. TLS/SSL used to work, using PR_OpenTCPSocket() followed by an immediate `nsTLSSocketProvider::AddToSocket()` and a `startTLS()`. This is what I'm trying to get working again. (I'd also like to implement proper startTLS protocol (there's an LDAP operation to tell the server to switch), but that's a separate bug, and if I can get this TLS/SSL connection working then startTLS should work fine too). I was under the impression that `nsIChannel` was for dealing with protocol-based connections (ie implemented in a nsIProtocolHandler), rather than plain socket connections? That doesn't seem applicable here, right? Anyway. the LDAP stuff is old code, with some... idiosyncratic aspects. So if the preferred way of doing network IO has changed over the years, then I imagine this code hasn't yet heard the news :-) Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1854363/comments/40 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2019-10-29T16:32:22+00:00 Dkeeler wrote: I see.

It: 1. ensures libldap is placed into non-blocking mode 2. dispatches the ldap_simple_bind operation on the socket thread (rather than mainthread) 3. listens for LDAP responses in the socket thread (rather than on a custom thread) 4. moves a bunch of replicated error handling out of `nsLDAPOperation` and into `nsLDAPConnection::AddPendingOperation()`. Item 2 is important, as this is where the SSL/TLS handshaking is done. The SSL/TLS socket layer defers this security negotiation until the first send occurs, and for this code that means in ldap_simple_bind. The intention is to move all the other operations to dispatch on the socket thread too, but for practical purposes this fixes the bug. (The other operations will issue on the main thread, without blocking, but their responses will be handled on the socket thread). Moving the rest of the operations over can be done in a follow-up patch - there's enough else going on here already. (and better still would be to get rid of `nsLDAPOperation` altogether, but that I will write up in another bug).

That's the first operation which performs a IO Send, and it's the first Send which kicks off the handshaking. I left the others because I figured it'd be better land the least-disruptive fix possible first. But Jorg's trace has the handshaking happening during the `SearchExt` operation. I suspect it's either a timing thing, or depends on how you initiate the lookup (maybe some paths don't bother performing the simplebind if the username/password are empty). Either way, the other operations should be moved onto the STS thread anyway, so I'll start on that.

It moves the bulk of the LDAP operations onto the socket thread.

Using TB 68, with SSL disabled, the lookup in addressbook works in both scenarios, either having selected "all address books" or "Adams" specifically. Same behaviour in composer F9. Using latest c-c (TB 72), without Ben's patch, with SSL disabled, only selecting "Adams" gives me results, and nothing for "all". I think we can handle that as a separate regression, I'll file a bug. Once we're ready to backport Ben's patch to TB 68, we'll have to test if it works for the "all address books" scenarios, too. In any case, the latest patch is indeed an improvement, it works for me with both SSL and OCSP enabled, even with OCSP required.
