Macro Definition Documentation

◆ SESSION_ID_PREFIX

#define SESSION_ID_PREFIX "SESS_ID_AT_"

The prefix given to auth tokens start with, this prefix is special cased to not show up in log files in OpenVPN 2 and 3.

We also prefix this with AT to only act on auth token generated by us.

Definition at line 115 of file auth_token.h.

◆ generate_auth_token()

void generate_auth_token	(	const struct user_pass *	up,
		struct tls_multi *	multi
	)

Generate an auth token based on username and timestamp.

The idea of auth token is to be stateless, so that we can verify use it even after we have forgotten about it or server has been restarted.

To achieve this even though we cannot trust the client we use HMAC to be able to verify the information.

Format of the auth-token (before base64 encode)

session id(12 bytes)|uint64 timestamp (8 bytes)| uint64 timestamp (8 bytes)|sha256-hmac(32 bytes)

The first timestamp is the time the token was initially created and is used to determine the maximum renewable time of the token. We always include this even if tokens do not expire (this value is not used) to keep the code cleaner.

The second timestamp is the time the token was renewed/regenerated and is used to determine if this token has been renewed in the acceptable time range (2 * renegotiation timeout)

The session id is a random string of 12 byte (or 16 in base64) that is not used by OpenVPN itself but kept intact so that external logging/management can track the session multiple reconnects/servers. It is deliberately chosen be a multiple of 3 bytes to have a base64 encoding without padding.

The hmac is calculated over the username concatenated with the raw auth-token bytes to include authentication of the username in the token

We encode the auth-token with base64 and then prepend "SESS_ID_" before sending it to the client.

This function will free() an existing multi->auth_token and keep the existing initial timestamp and session id contained in that token.

◆ is_auth_token()

static bool is_auth_token ( const char * password )

inlinestatic

Return if the password string has the format of a password.

This function will always read as many bytes as SESSION_ID_PREFIX is longer the caller needs ensure that password memory is at least that long (true for calling with struct user_pass)

Parameters

password
