[Bug 1464064] Re: Ubuntu apt repos are not available via HTTPS

2015-07-24 Thread Micah Lee
I think that the biggest issue with apt repositories not using https is
that attackers can block updates and censor which packages can be
installed.

Here's a story: Once I was on Amtrak, the train system run by a US
federal government agency, and noticed that the wifi was being censored.
I wanted to try to figure out exactly how it was being censored using
OONI Probe [1], but I didn't have it installed. So I attempted
installing it, but the Amtrak network blocked the download of some of
the dependencies, so I failed in mapping the censorship that trip. I
figured out that the network blocked all http downloads where the
content-length header was greater than 10mb (to prevent bandwidth abuse
or something), but Amtrak wouldn't have prevented me from installing
this if the apt repositories used https.

This is more innocent that other attacks could be. An attacker could
prevent the installation of security updates, or of specific packages
that they didn't want people using, such as enigmail, pidgin-otr,
anarchism, etc.

Fingerprinting installed software is also a big issue. Robie makes a
good point that https won't necessarily prevent that, because of package
file sizes, but I still think transport encryption is the first step to
solving that problem (e.g. then packages could add padding). And using
https would require the attacker to maintain a database of package
versions and file sizes, for all repositories that victims maybe using,
including arbitrary PPAs, rather than just looking for package names and
versions in the URLs.

But also, while it's true that other things use https isn't
necessarily a good justification for apt repos to follow suit, I do
think it's past time that we completely stop using plaintext transport
protocols for anything. Even when you're using http to download signed
things (like software packages, or PGP keys from key servers), transport
encryption makes network attacks, both passive and active, much harder
and makes users safer.

[Bug 1398623] [NEW] torbrowser-launcher apparmor profiles are broken in ubuntu

2014-12-02 Thread Micah Lee
Public bug reported:

In Utopic, when you install torbrowser-launcher it installs a set of
AppArmor that work fine in Debian Jessie, but are broken in Ubuntu. When
you try running the torbrowser-launcher binary, it fails and AppArmor
errors get logged to syslog.

I think the AppArmor profiles shouldn't be included in the Ubuntu
package until the AppArmor profiles are fixed. The upstream project
version 0.1.7 specifically removes AppArmor profiles when building in
Ubuntu: https://github.com/micahflee/torbrowser-
launcher/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

[Bug 886589] Re: Enigmime Service Not available

2012-02-17 Thread Micah Lee
I was getting this too, and I think it started when I upgraded
thunderbird to 7.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu1.

I opened the enigmail preferences and manually set the GnuPG program to
be /usr/bin/gpg, but the error kept coming. So I removed the enigmail
package from ubuntu altogether and instead installed enigmail from
addons.mozilla.org, and everything is working fine now.

[Bug 245399] Re: Desktop installer should have an encrypted LVM option

2011-05-12 Thread Micah Lee
This feature already exists in the alternate CD, which is great. For the
desktop CD, the language could be very simple and not mention LVM
snapshots or any other confusing concepts. When you boot to the desktop
CD and start installing Ubuntu, the options could be:

Erase disk and install Ubuntu
Erase disk and install Ubuntu with whole disk encryption
Manual configuration (advanced)

The manual configuration partitioner should at least be as featureful as
the alternate CD partitioner. When you create a new partition and choose
the type, the list should include physical volume for LVM and
physical volume for encryption as well as ext4, ext3, fat32, etc. Here
is a screenshot I just found of an Ubuntu alternate CD (an older
version) that does this:
http://main.uab.edu/Sites/it/documents/63846.jpg

If you want to dual-boot Ubuntu and Windows, your partitioning scheme
can look like this:

/dev/sda1 - NTFS for Windows
/dev/sda2 - ext4 for /boot
/dev/sda3 - physical volume for encryption volume

Within the encrypted volume you can set up a physical volume for LVM
and within that create two volumes, one for swap and one ext4 for /. If
someone already has Windows installed, Ubuntu can use free space on the
drive to automatically create a /boot partition and put everything else
in an encrypted partition.

In the Fedora Core installer, when you create a new partition there is a
checkbox for Encrypt this partition. When you check it, it prompts you
for an encryption passphrase to use. This is a simple and straight-
forward interface that doesn't make it any harder for people who are new
to Linux to use, but it does make it much more secure.

[Bug 245399] Re: Desktop installer should have an encrypted LVM option

2011-05-10 Thread Micah Lee
Apparently it's only included in Ultimate and Enterprise versions of
Windows Vista and Windows 7
(https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/BitLocker_Drive_Encryption).

Regardless, all versions of the Ubuntu installer should include full
disk encryption. Other GNU/Linux distrobutions, like Fedora Core, do
this already.

[Bug 245399] Re: Desktop installer should have an encrypted LVM option

2011-05-09 Thread Micah Lee
I am very interested in getting this bug fixed in time for Oneiric.
Would it be possible to get this added as an Oneiric before the Feature
Definition Freeze on May 26?

I work for the Electronic Frontier Foundation and I recently wrote a blog post 
about this asking people to vote for this in Ubuntu Brainstorm:
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2011/05/help-bring-disk-encryption-ubuntu-live-cd
http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/24712/

It has received hundreds of new votes in just the last couple of days.

Windows 7 comes with BitLocker full disk encryption out of the box. The
new version of Mac OS X coming out, Lion, is updating FileVault to do
full disk encryption out of the box (instead of just home dir encryption
that's available in Snow Leopard). Ubuntu really should offer this as
well, and make it easy. Ubuntu is in danger of falling behind the two
major proprietary operating systems in this important security and
privacy feature.

There is also an Ubuntu Forums thread about it:
