    Also note that you probably won't find xmpp-server.json anywhere in the wild

  225. MattJ

    We've discussed just using xmpp-client for s2s :)

  226. Wojtek has joined

  227. moparisthebest

    MattJ: like just combining them both and allowing any match?

  228. MattJ

    Probably

  229. moparisthebest

  233. MattJ

    I think we should ensure implementations never let POSH override DANE or better mechanisms. In particular, there really ought to be a secure way to opt out of POSH, but I can't think of anything except that

  234. rafasaurus has joined

  235. MattJ

    e.g. I would rather if my web hosting provider didn't have the ability to compromise my XMPP service with the presence of a file or two

  248. moparisthebest

    That makes sense, the downside of course is that hardly anyone does DNSSEC

  249. Wojtek has left

  250. moparisthebest

    MattJ: DANE obviously ranks above all, where does POSH rank against CAs though?

  251. moparisthebest

    Though... Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm not positive it's more common for people to host their own DNSSEC than HTTPS ?

  252. moparisthebest

    As in it'd be more likely for your DNS host to compromise your XMPP server than your web hosting provider? Maybe?

  253. Kev

    POSH is roughly equivalent to CA (if LE) isn't it?

  254. moparisthebest

    Kev: I can't immediately come up with a convincing argument as to how they are different yea

  255. moparisthebest

    I guess if your DNS host is compromised it's game over anyway, as they can not only set DANE but also get certificates and host your https and XMPP... So "evil web host" is an additional attack vector on top of that existing one

  256. jalal has left

  257. Kev

    Ah, you're right. CA is better than POSH even when LE.

  258. moparisthebest

    Better or the same?

  259. Millesimus has left

  260. moparisthebest

    Will if you can get a ca cert there's no need to do posh I guess? So posh is an additional attack vector on top of an existing one? *Unless* your web host that hosts posh is protected with Dane??????

  261. moparisthebest

    My head hurts

  262. Kev

    If you use POSH there's one extra machine (potentially) that compromising would affect the trust chain.

  263. Kev

    (And if it's not an extra machine, you may as well not use POSH)

  264. moparisthebest

    Yea, unless DANE

  265. Kev

    Even if DANE, no?

  266. moparisthebest

    Hmm... Need more coffee

  267. Kev

    Assuming you mean DANE of the POSH host (because if you DANE on XMPP you don't need it on the POSH host).

  268. Kev

    Because if the POSH host is compromised (host itself, not DNS), it's an extra point that can lie, despite having valid certs.

  269. moparisthebest

    Thinking about it, if you can do Dane why have POSH

  270. Kev

    If you can DANE on the XMPP host, yes, POSH doesn't seem to do anything (to me).

  271. moparisthebest

    A Dane capable client wouldn't check Dane on posh because it would never get there

  272. Wojtek has joined

  273. moparisthebest

    So absent Dane, you basically have to trust CA *or* POSH

  274. moparisthebest

    There's no secure way to say "please don't trust POSH" other than DANE

  275. moparisthebest

    And POSH isn't the only way your https host can compromise your XMPP server, websockets/Bosh can do it too

  276. Kev

    If you expose those, yes.

  277. Millesimus has joined

  278. moparisthebest

    No, even if you don't expose them right?

  279. MattJ

    No, an attacker who has access to your web server can advertise any BOSH/WS URLs and intercept your XMPP traffic using those mechanisms (and that discovery mechanism)

    actually I'm not sure order really matters, I mean, you can apply the order for outbound connections, but for incoming s2s you basically just have to apply "any of DANE or CA or POSH goes" right ?

  350. 9lakes has left

  351. moparisthebest

    the end result being your webhost can make outgoing S2S connections on your behalf 100% of the time ?
