11 years agoIntroduce lightweight PMTU probe replies.
Etienne Dechamps [Sun, 21 Jul 2013 12:05:42 +0000 (13:05 +0100)]
Introduce lightweight PMTU probe replies.

When replying to a PMTU probe, tinc sends a packet with the same length
as the PMTU probe itself, which is usually large (~1450 bytes). This is
not necessary: the other node wants to know the size of the PMTU probes
that have been received, but encoding this information as the actual
reply length is probably the most inefficient way to do it. It doubles
the bandwidth usage of the PMTU discovery process, and makes it less
reliable since large packets are more likely to be dropped.

This patch introduces a new PMTU probe reply type, encoded as type "2"
in the first byte of the packet, that indicates that the length of the
PMTU probe that is being replied to is encoded in the next two bytes of
the packet. Thus reply packets are only 3 bytes long.

(This also protects against very broken networks that drop very small
packets - yes, I've seen it happen on a subnet of a national ISP - in
such a case the PMTU probe replies will be dropped, and tinc won't
enable UDP communication, which is a good thing.)

Because legacy nodes won't understand type 2 probe replies, the minor
protocol number is bumped to 3.

Note that this also improves bandwidth estimation, as it is able to
measure bandwidth in both directions independently (the node receiving
the replies is measuring in the TX direction) and the use of smaller
reply packets might decrease the influence of jitter.

Using the tinc command, an administrator of an existing VPN can generate
invitations for new nodes. The invitation is a small URL that can easily

automatically setup the necessary configuration files and exchange keys
with the server, by only using the invitation URL.

The invitation protocol uses temporary ECDSA keys. The invitation URL
consists of the hostname and port of the server, a hash of the server's
temporary ECDSA key and a cookie. When the client wants to accept an
invitation, it also creates a temporary ECDSA key, connects to the server
and says it wants to accept an invitation. Both sides exchange their
temporary keys. The client verifies that the server's key matches the hash
in the invitation URL. After setting up an SPTPS connection using the
temporary keys, the client gives the cookie to the server. If the cookie
is valid, the server sends the client an invitation file containing the
client's new name and a copy of the server's host config file. If everything
is ok, the client will generate a long-term ECDSA key and send it to the
server, which will add it to a new host config file for the client.

The invitation protocol currently allows multiple host config files to be
send from the server to the client. However, the client filters out
most configuration variables for its own host configuration file. In

Drop packets forwarded via TCP if they are too big (CVE-2013-1428).

Normally all requests sent via the meta connections are checked so that they
cannot be larger than the input buffer. However, when packets are forwarded via
meta connections, they are copied into a packet buffer without checking whether
it fits into it. Since the packet buffer is allocated on the stack, this in
effect allows an authenticated remote node to cause a stack overflow.

Estimate RTT, bandwidth and packet loss between nodes.

Without adding any extra traffic, we can measure round trip times, estimate the
bandwidth and packet loss between nodes. The RTT and bandwidth can be measured
by timing the MTU probe packets. The RTT is the difference between the time a
burst of MTU probes was sent and when the first reply is received. The
bandwidth can be estimated by multiplying the size of the probe packets by the
time between succesive received probe replies of the same burst. The packet
loss can be estimated for incoming traffic by comparing how many packets have
actually been received to the increase in the sequence numbers.

The estimates are not perfect. Especially bandwidth is difficult to measure,
the only accurate way is to continuously send as much data as possible, but
that is obviously not desirable. The packet loss rate is also almost always
a few percent when sending a lot of data over the VPN via TCP, since TCP
