Security Assessment for oqsprovider (Open Quantum Safe provider for OpenSSL 3.x) #1333

Open anvega opened 1 month ago

anvega commented 1 month ago

Project Name: oqsprovider - (Open Quantum Safe provider for OpenSSL3.x )

Github URL: https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/oqs-provider Issue tracker: https://github.com/open-quantum-safe/oqs-provider/issues/451

The oqsprovider project offers standards-track post-quantum key exchange, authentication, and ciphersuites in the TLS protocol without requiring code changes to any installation running OpenSSLv3.

The project is now part of the Linux Foundation PQCA. This will be the first time an assessment is done for a project not seeking to progress stages in the CNCF, but solely for sensibly "scrutinizing" it.

As @baentsch expressed:

"Most things are pretty obvious but I'm feeling an ethical obligation to first witness more committed contributors before implementing/declaring as "good" things this self-assessment suggests. Otherwise, I'd be afraid this would create a false sense of reliability to users ("badges", "alliance endorsement", etc marketing fluff) -- all the while the code is [maintained thanklessly by the proverbial random guy in Nebraska](https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/10/untangling_open_sources_sustainability_problem/) (err, Switzerland :)."

The project lead has completed a self-assessment, and I volunteer to be the lead reviewer. I declare a soft conflict of interest, having made a cosmetic contribution by fixing the CI build badges of another Open Quantum Safe project and starting to use it in my work.

Maybe I can interest @mnm678, @JustinCappos, and @hlandau to participate as reviewers.

dehatideep commented 1 month ago

I am very keen to be part of this review. Being a newbie to this process I am going through various guides available at https://github.com/cncf/tag-security/tree/main/community/assessments/guide with furious pace, though I have done various similar security assessments for my work projects and hoping I'll move fast, and that I have no hard or soft conflict of interest whatsoever in this regard.

Okay @SophiaUgo, please send your conflict statement when ready.

amanda-gonzalez commented 1 month ago

I'd love to be an observer for this assessment if you all are open to having one! I have no soft or hard conflicts :)

Dropping @SophiaUgo until she approves her conflict statement.

@anvega , you're ready to go!

I would also like to express my interest in shadowing experienced reviewers to learn more about the security assessment process.

dehatideep commented 1 month ago

@anvega @JustinCappos I just finished reading https://github.com/cncf/tag-security/blob/main/community/assessments/Open_and_Secure.pdf. I had started reading it to work on tag-security-baseline survey/assessment, which I just completed, and I am sure it will come handy or rather more useful for this assessment. I think you'll see some progress on this one now. I am writing though to let you know that I enjoyed reading your analysis/comments in the above doc. My entire experience of threat modeling etc. come from on the job experience and I have certainly read a few things on-demand basis, understand the terminologies and the issues involved, however above doc is so lucid, easy flowing, simple and easily understood bank example you have given, the conversational styles you have used, and I loved it all :) . Thank you!

anvega commented 4 weeks ago

I've completed the initial phase of asking my naive questions, which Michael has been graciously helping me with. The Markdown has been successfully converted to Google Docs, and you can find the document here.

@dehatideep has also mentioned that he’s started reviewing the material independently. It might be a good idea to wrap up this initial round of "naive" questions and aim to convene with @baentsch and everyone else next week. Considering our locations—Michael in Switzerland, Deep, @hubbertsmith, and myself on the US West Coast, and @SophiaUgo in Nigeria—I suggest we meet at 10:00 AM PT (US West Coast) / 7:00 PM CET (Switzerland) / 6:00 PM WAT (Nigeria). If that doesn’t work, we could also consider 8:00 AM PT / 5:00 PM CET / 4:00 PM WAT as an alternative time.

hubbertsmith commented 4 weeks ago

Confirmed -- Self-assessment received. meetings, yes please, discussion is how we improve generally, I am OK with those times. I can do earlier to make it more convenient for others do we know a day and cadence yet? cheers

@baentsch I have added my Qs in the google doc assessment. Please see and clarify. Sorry for the delay. @anvega I am fine with the proposed time above.

baentsch commented 3 weeks ago

@anvega Will you send an invite for the slot above? Which day? Hope I will still be awake enough to give reasonable answers (am an "early bird"). Any questions ahead (via the Google doc) thus would be welcome. I answered all by @anvega and @dehatideep so far.

anvega commented 3 weeks ago

@baentsch @dehatideep How about 9 AM PST / 4 PM CET this coming Friday or next Tuesday?

hubbertsmith commented 3 weeks ago

I'm Ok with friday (anytime other than 9am MDT) I'm OK with next tuesday (anytime other than 8am MDT) cheers H

dehatideep commented 3 weeks ago

@baentsch @dehatideep How about 9 AM PST / 4 PM CET this coming Friday or next Tuesday?

@baentsch @anvega Funny that Fri 9 am PDT is the only day when I am not available. Please choose any day except this Fri. Thank you.

baentsch commented 3 weeks ago

@baentsch @dehatideep How about 9 AM PST / 4 PM CET this coming Friday or next Tuesday?

Hmm, 9 AM PST would be 6 PM CET, no? Assuming the PST time is right, Fri 1800 would be good for me, Tue 1800 would not be (OQS team call at 1830).

@baentsch @anvega Unfortunately I've work related event on Fri, morning (PT) to afternoon, so can not manage at all. Tue I can manage in the morning except 7:50 am PT- 8:30 am PT. 8:30 am PT would be 17:30 am CET. 9 am PT works for me often, including Fri, but not this Fri.

baentsch commented 3 weeks ago

This then seems to suggest 1h max @ next Tue, 8:30am PST/1730 CET/1530 UTC.

OK, @anvega @dehatideep @hubbertsmith @SophiaUgo ?

SophiaUgo commented 3 weeks ago

That works for me @baentsch

dehatideep commented 3 weeks ago

Yes, next Tue, 8:30 AM PT works for me. @baentsch

baentsch commented 2 weeks ago

@anvega For the avoidance of doubt: I don't have a Zoom link available, so could you please send/post an invite as per the above with suitable login data? Thanks in advance!

baentsch commented 2 weeks ago

@anvega Are you out there? OK with you making available meeting details for the slot above tomorrow?

hubbertsmith commented 2 weeks ago

works for me

anvega commented 2 weeks ago

I'm returning from a trip that ended up being extended beyond the original plan.

Instead of meeting tomorrow, let's reschedule for Thursday.

I'll send a Zoom link that requires only password authentication, without the need for an account. If you prefer Google Meet, we can easily switch to that. I'll schedule it for an hour but plan for 45 min.

Sorry, that doesn't work for me: I'm on the road Thu-Sat. Afterwards OK again, but then with rather mercurial Internet connectivity in our holiday home: I have a hunch there's still a microwave radio link involved connecting the island: Video often drops out, but speech is OK except in strong gales. Yes, I know, sad for the 21st century but it is how it is. Pick any day at 1530 UTC from Sep 1 onwards.

I am on zoom in the waiting in lobby :o(

@hubbertsmith FWIW, I also won't be there on Thu, either (see comment above). Besides, it originally had been scheduled for 1530 UTC, i.e., only in 30mins.

baentsch commented 2 weeks ago

Tagging @anvega to reschedule as per the above, if you'd like me to participate.

anvega commented 1 week ago

Could we aim for 1530 UTC next Tuesday? Let me know if that works for you, or if there's a better day next week

dehatideep commented 1 week ago

@anvega @baentsch 1530 UTC (08:30 AM Pacific Time) on Tue, Sep 3 works for me. Thank you.

@anvega I do not see any zoom meeting info for today's (Sep 03) meeting. can you please share if this meeting is still on.

baentsch commented 1 week ago

I am waiting in the Zoom link for Aug 29 (assuming that is still valid -- "waiting for the host to open"....)

dehatideep commented 1 week ago

@baentsch Zoom doesn't allow me to use Aug 29 meeting link. I tried using just the meeting id but it gets stuck saying meeting was on Aug 29.

baentsch commented 1 week ago

@dehatideep Nope -- the link works OK (I'm using the brower access, not the app) -- it does state "Aug 29", but it opened OK -- just waiting for the host... @anvega : Any other link to use??

baentsch commented 1 week ago

Maybe a calendar invite would have been better (sync'd with the alarm clocks for folks on the Pacific rim :-)

dehatideep commented 1 week ago

Yes :) , I am at the west coast too!

baentsch commented 1 week ago

@anvega I'll stay on until 1545 UTC and then call it a day (for me it's about dinner time :). Please reschedule (maybe indeed with calendar reminder) for the same time another day that suits everyone. I'm available all (next) days except Friday.

dehatideep commented 1 week ago

@baentsch I am not able to join Aug 29 meeting at all, it bails out every time saying Aug 29 meeting. I am hanging here till you are around, just in case Andres joins. If he does, probably we'll need a new meeting.

OK -- I'm indeed leaving now ... Thanks @dehatideep for "having been (t)here" -- hope to meet you another day! CU

anvega commented 1 week ago

Apologies—I had a minor accident over the holiday here in the US that required a checkup, but I'm finally back online after being discharged. I have emails for Michael and Deep, and I'll move the coordination to email to ensure everyone gets the calendar invite.
