secsipidx

Secure SIP/Telephony Identity Extensions.

Last Version: 1.3.2 Release: Nov 15, 2023

Overview

Applications and libraries implementing STIR/SHAKEN (RFC8224, RFC8588), used in SIP/VoIP services:

Components:

  • secsipid: Go STIR/SHAKEN library - common functions for STIR/SHAKEN
  • csecsipid: C STIR/SHAKEN ibrary - wrapper code to build dynamic or static library and .h include files
  • secsipidx: main.go - CLI tool and HTTP API server for checking or building SIP identity

secsipidx

Installation

Install Go language (golang), guidelines at:

Note: When using some specific Go versions (e.g., 1.16), it is necessary to set the environment variable GO111MODULE to off prior to executing the go get or make commands. Its value can be specified via GO111MODVAL variable for Makefile, which is defined inside Makefile.defs. It can be also set in the command line, like:

GO111MODVAL=off make

Deploy the secsipidx tool with:

go get github.com/asipto/secsipidx

The tool is located in $GOPATH/bin/secsipidx.

If you want to build and run locally:

go get -d github.com/asipto/secsipidx
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/asipto/secsipidx/
go build

# run from local folder
# ./secsipidx ...

Install using the make command:

go get -d github.com/asipto/secsipidx
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/asipto/secsipidx/
make
make install

The secsipidx tool is deployed to /usr/local/bin/. The make install deploys also the libraries and C headers.

Usage

To see the available command line options, run:

secsipidx -h
Keys Generation

The openssl tool needs to be installed.

The following commands can be used to generate the private and public keys:

openssl ecparam -name prime256v1 -genkey -noout -out ec256-private.pem
openssl ec -in ec256-private.pem -pubout -out ec256-public.pem
Usage
CLI - Generate Full Identity Header

A call from +493044448888 to +493055559999 with attestation level A, when the public key can be downloaded from http://asipto.lab/stir/cert.pem:

secsipidx -sign-full -orig-tn 493044448888 -dest-tn 493055559999 -attest A -x5u http://asipto.lab/stir/cert.pem -k ec256-private.pem
CLI - Check Full Identity Header

Check the identity header stored in file identity.txt using the public key in file ec256-public.pem with token expire of 3600 seconds

secsipidx -check -fidentity identity.txt -fpubkey ec256-public.pem -expire 3600
HTTP Server

Run secsipidx as an HTTP server listening on port 8090 for checking SIP identity with public key from file ec256-public.pem:

secsipidx -http-srv ":8090" -http-dir /secsipidx/http/public -fprvkey ec256-private.pem -fpubkey ec256-public.pem -expire 3600 -timeout 5

To run secsipidx as an HTTPS server on port 8093, following command line parameters have to be provided:

secsipidx -https-srv ":8093" -https-pubkey /keys/secsipidx-public.key  -https-prvkey /keys/secsipidx-private.key ...

The TLS certificate (public and private keys) can be obtained from services like Let's Encrypt or use self-generated ones:

openssl genrsa -out secsipidx-private.key 2048
openssl ecparam -genkey -name secp384r1 -out secsipidx-private.key
openssl req -new -x509 -sha256 -key secsipidx-private.key -out secsipidx-public.key -days 365
Check Identity

If the identity header body is saved in the file identity.txt, the next command can be used to check it:

curl --data @identity.txt http://127.0.0.1:8090/v1/check

If secsipidx is started without -fpubkey or -pubkey, then the public key to check the signature is downloaded from x5u URL (or the header info parameter). The value of -timeout parameter is used to limit the download time of the public key via HTTP.

Generate Identity - CSV API

Prototype:

curl --data 'OrigTN,DestTN,ATTEST,OrigID,X5U' http://127.0.0.1:8090/v1/sign-csv

If OrigID is missing, then a UUID value is generated internally.

Example to get the Identity header value:

curl --data '493044442222,493088886666,A,,https://asipto.lab/v1/pub/cert.pem' http://127.0.0.1:8090/v1/sign-csv
HTTP File Server

When started with parameter -httpdir, the secsipidx servers the files from the respective directory on the URL path /v1/pub/.

Certificate Verification

The certificate retrieved from peers can be verified against system CAs or a list of CAs stored in a file. The path to custom CAs files can be set via --ca-file and --ca-inter parameters.

The verification mode can be set via --cert-verify parameter, which represents an integer value build from the bit flags:

  • 1 (1<<0) - verify time validity (not expired and not before validity date)
  • 2 (1<<1) - verify against system root CAs
  • 4 (1<<2) - verify against custom root CAs in the file specified by --ca-file
  • 8 (1<<3) - verify against custom intermediate CAs in the file specified by --ca-inter
  • 16 (1<<4) - verify against certificate revocation list

The value can be combined, so --cert-verify 7 means that the verification is done against system room CAs and the custom CAs in the file specified by --ca-file, together with time validity checks.

If --cert-verify is 0, no verification is performed.

Certificate Caching

There is support for a basic caching mechanism of the public keys in local files.

It can be activated by giving -cache-dir /path/to/cachedir cli parameter, how long the cached value is considered valid can be controlled with -cache-expire.

The C library exports now:

int SecSIPIDSetFileCacheOptions(char* dirPath, int expireVal);

which can be used to set the two values (the cache dir activates the caching mechanism).

The name of the file in the cache directory is created from URL replacing first :// with _ and then the rest of / also with _ -- I went this way instead of hashing (or encoding) the url to be human readable. Last modified time of the file is used to determine when the value is considered expired.

Kamailio secsipid module was also enhanced with two new parameters to set the cache dir and expire values.

There is no locking/synchronization on accessing (read/write) cache files for the moment, this can be done externally, for example with Kamailio by using cfgutils module:

$var(url) = $(hdr(Identity){s.rmws}{param.value,info}{s.unbracket});
lock("$var(url)");
if(secsipid_check_identity("")) { ... }
unlock("$var(url)");

C API

The code to get the C library is located in the csecsipid directory.

To generate the .h and static library files, run inside the directory:

make liba

Then the *.h and libsecsipid.a files can be copied to the folder where it is wanted to be used.

The library is used by secsipid and secsipid_proc modules of Kamailio SIP Server (https://www.kamailio.org):

The prototype of functions exported to C API and documentation are int the file:

C Library Options

The library options that can be set with SecSIPIDOptSetS(), SecSIPIDOptSetN() or SecSIPIDOptSetV():

  • CacheDirPath (str) - the path to the folder where to store cached certificates that are downloaded from peers
  • CacheExpires (int) - number of seconds after which cached certificates are invalidated
  • CertVerify (int) - the certification verification mode, see the section Certificate Verification above
  • CertCAFile (str) - the path with the custom root CA certificates
  • CertCAInter (str) - the path with the custom intermediate CA certificates
  • CertCRLFile (str) - the path with the certificate revocation list

To-Do

  • external cache (e.g., use of Redis) of downloaded public keys used to verify Identity signatures
  • blacklisting of unresponsive x5u URLs
  • support more data formats for HTTP API (e.g., JSON for generating Identity)
  • configuration file

Testing

To test the secsipid library, cd into secsipid/ and run:

go test -v

Some of the unit tests take multiple seconds because they're forcing a time out or waiting for something to expire. These tests are skipped by default.

To run all tests, including these longer ones, set the environemnt variable: GO_TEST_ALL to on:

GO_TEST_ALL=on go test -v
