Ewout van Mansom 5a2f750c53 Add note explaining secure eleptic curve situation for modern TLS profile preset (#209) 2018-11-30 12:12:02 +01:00
Ewout van Mansom 9b369d23a5 Add eleptic curves for modern profile preset
prime256v1 (NIST P-256), secp384r1 (NIST P-384) and secp521r1 (NIST P-521) have been deemed insecure as per Daniel J. Bernstein's research (https://cr.yp.to/newelliptic/nistecc-20160106.pdf, https://safecurves.cr.yp.to/).

Despite that, the adoption of X25519 is too slim. Limiting to that curve would mean dropping compatibility with Safari, Edge and Internet Explorer.

Léo Colombaro 959839d81f Add a modern profile for SSL policy
TLSv1.0 & TLSv1.1 suffer from [POODLE](blog.qualys.com/ssllabs/2014/12/08/poodle-bites-tls) and other [padding oracle attack](blog.cloudflare.com/padding-oracles-and-the-decline-of-cbc-mode-ciphersuites)
You need to support only TLSv1.2 to expect closing those weakness (and use only AEAD cipher suite in case of padding oracle).

The same, non PFS cipher suite is not at all recommended (see heartbleed effect).
DHE support [is dropped](digicert.com/blog/google-plans-to-deprecate-dhe-cipher-suites) from any decent user agent and can lead to [mitm attack](media.ccc.de/v/32c3-7288-logjam_diffie-hellman_discrete_logs_the_nsa_and_you#t=1357) (arround ~25min in the video) with only one side supporting weak cipher suite.
3DES is deprecated and suffer from [sweet32](sweet32.info)

So I recommend using only the `EECDH+CHACHA20:EECDH+AES` cipher suite, which has [quite good compatibility](cryptcheck.fr/suite/EECDH+CHACHA20:EECDH+AES) and a very better security than the actual cipher suite.

Fix #201
