    I also wonder why Signal is considered more secure than Whatsapp?

  217. zinid

    same proprietary silo

  218. mathieui

    hm no?

  219. mathieui

    signal isn’t controled by facebook

  220. zinid

    and?

  221. mathieui

    and iirc the server can do less things in signal

  222. zinid

    like requesting private key?

  223. Ge0rG

    Signal is controlled by moxie, who used to be an anarchist crypto nerd before he got bought.

  224. zinid

    so this is a question of trust? which is very personal

  225. zinid

    for example, why would I trust moxie?

  226. vanitasvitae has joined

    don't

    Holger zinid should we clarify 0060 for this one ? https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/issues/2129

  265. la|r|ma has left

  266. zinid

    edhelas, I'm no pubsub expert, sorry, I barely can understand the problem

  267. Holger

    Yes this should be clarified if you ask me.

  268. ralphm has joined

  271. MattJ

    I don't see what there is to clarify

  272. Dave Cridland has left

  273. Dave Cridland has joined

  274. MattJ

    Someone might think that deleting their account allows their pubsub nodes to be modified by others?

  275. Ge0rG has left

  276. Holger

    MattJ: Both you and me have write access to a node. Does that mean you can override items published by me?

  277. Holger

    MattJ: That's not clear (to me) from reading 0060. See that issue.

  278. MattJ

    Ok, I see

  279. MattJ

    It didn't see clear to me that that's what the issue was about

  280. Zash

    Item ownership?

  281. MattJ

    Opens a can of worms

  282. daniel has left

  283. zinid

    there is a similar problem with MUCs (if I understand it correctly): account deletion doesn't trigger deletion of ownership in remote MUCs

  284. zinid

    so you can re-register the account and become an owner 😉

  285. Holger

    Yeah. Or just become member of a members-only group.

  286. Ge0rG

    Now I can't delete accounts any more? I need to convert them all into tombstones?

  287. MattJ

    Ge0rG, welcome to federation

  288. zinid

    a client probably needs to clean up everything carefully, but that's PITA

  289. Ge0rG

    zinid: you can't have a client clean up everything if you ban a user.

  290. MattJ

    That's not always feasible

  291. ralphm has joined

  292. Ge0rG

    Also not all clients of a user know their remote MUC ownerships

  293. Kev

    More or less you can never delete accounts safely in XMPP, you must always tombstone.

  294. Kev

    At least for federated systems you don't control.

  295. zinid

    yeah, so just don't delete your account 🙂

  296. Holger

    Anyway those are separate problems. The user who created that ejabberd issue is indeed fighting with deleted accounts (and I see the problem), but he stumbled over that PubSub question which is just as unclear if the accounts in question still exist.

  297. zinid

    however, server admins can do that 🙂

  298. Holger

    I clearly see the use case for giving multiple JIDs write access to a node without allowing them to delete/override each others items. So if 0060 doesn't make this possible that's bad.

  299. Holger

    I think this should be the default behavior, just needs some clarification.

  300. intosi

    Holger: you mean publish-only?

  301. Holger

    If there's also a use case for allowing to delete/override each others items then 0060 needs additional magic.

  302. intosi

    Although that precludes reading items.

  303. Holger

    intosi: You're always able to edit/delete items you published yourself.

  304. Holger

    (Which can also be a problem.)

  305. Holger

    This is just about messing with stuff published by others.

  306. Ge0rG

    That sounds like an Enterprise Feature.

  307. ralphm has joined

  308. Ge0rG has left

  309. Holger

    I think people like goffi and edhelas are having a hard time trying to use 0060 for very basic features ...

    It's because XEP-0060 is too generic

  332. Dave Cridland has left

  334. MattJ

    Which means for most practical applications, it doesn't suffice, or has to be made more complex

    zinid: ah excellent (about ejabberd config pointer)

  465. moparisthebest

    On a related note, does ejabberd TLS support SNI for cert selection?

  466. Holger

    moparisthebest: Sure, zinid added that ages ago.

  467. Holger

    (Last month IIRC.)

  468. moparisthebest

    Nice

  469. Zash

    Model changes :/

  470. Ge0rG has left

  471. moparisthebest

    SNI is shockingly absent outside https it seems, I had to add it to 2 IRC clients and K-9 mail on Android when I started this whole multiplexing business

  472. moparisthebest

    It's been around for what 14 years at this point?

  473. Zash

    Does anything but HTTPS actually need it?

  474. Holger

    IRC has no STARTTLS I guess :-)

  475. Holger

    But yes mail doesn't need it.

  476. Ge0rG has left

  477. Zash

    For weird reasons tho

  478. moparisthebest

    everything that uses TLS really

  479. moparisthebest

    imap and smtp over TLS need it

  480. moparisthebest

    not STARTTLS, but TLS that is

  481. Ge0rG has left

  482. lskdjf has left

  483. moparisthebest

    the funny thing is, as IPv4 gets harder and harder to get, SNI will become more and more needed by everything

  484. lskdjf has joined

  485. moparisthebest

    and then as IPv4 is replaced by IPv6, SNI will no longer be needed at all essentially 🙂

  486. Holger

    moparisthebest: Sure if you don't use the alternative solution available for email, then you need it :-)

  487. moparisthebest

    starttls should just die everywhere

  488. Zash

    nooooooo

  489. moparisthebest

    I think there is even such an RFC for all the email protocols right?

  490. Zash

    Pretty sure all email protocols have starttls

  491. Zash

    Pretty sure I've never seen SMTP over TLS

  492. moparisthebest

    all of them have starttls options and direct-tls options, and an old RFC deprecated direct-tls, and a new one I think re-instates it and deprecates starttls

  493. moparisthebest

    over port 465 is the standard for that Zash

  494. moparisthebest

    for client submission port over direct tls

  495. Guus has left

  496. Zash

    Never seen or heard about anyone ever using that

  497. moparisthebest

    yea the standard smtp ports are 25 (for s2s you could say), 587 for submission (starttls), and 465 for smtps (direct tls), 465 pre-dated 587 and then was deprecated and assigned to some protocol no one uses...

    Zash: We've been offering SMTPS and IMAPS next to STARTTLS for ages and I've seen many other providers doing so.

    on an XMPP related note, they chose the terminology 'Implicit TLS' vs what we chose of 'Direct TLS' so it might make sense to update 368 that way

    Because a huge lot of software and deployments support it, and because there is no downside.

    There is a downside to the change though.

  740. SamWhited has left

  741. Zash

    Changing security stuff for what amounts to a small round trip optimization is kinda scary.

  742. Zash

    And the thing about getting through firewalls will just further that arms race

  743. moparisthebest

    Way more software supports direct TLS

  744. la|r|ma has left

  745. Ge0rG has left

  746. Zash

    More popular != better

  747. moparisthebest

    But in this case it does

  748. la|r|ma has left

  749. Ge0rG has left

  750. Link Mauve

    moparisthebest, I just had a look at our server, we have a 1:10 ratio of users of legacy TLS vs. StartTLS.

  751. moparisthebest

    Link Mauve: do you have xep368 DNS records, and what preference order

  752. Link Mauve

    Yes, and same as the normal one.

  753. moparisthebest

    Wait same? What is the weight of each then

  754. Link Mauve

    Ah no, 8 0 for _xmpp-client and 10 0 for _xmpps-client.

  755. Link Mauve

    I remembered wrong.

  756. moparisthebest

    Ah ok well that's why then

  757. Link Mauve

    You can dig _xmpps?-client._tcp.jabberfr.org.

  758. moparisthebest

    You should test with them switched

  759. Link Mauve

    But why? I thought the only reason to have those was to bypass firewalls that intercept the plain text version and only allow TLS-looking ones.

  760. Link Mauve

    If a client fails to connect in StartTLS, but supports legacy TLS, it will just check again once the connection failed.

  761. Zash

    I thought the primary reason was to get through corporate firewalls that only allow http/https

  762. Link Mauve

    Yeah.

  763. Link Mauve

    That’s the only reason we have legacy TLS in the first place.

  764. Link Mauve

    We also have XEP-0156 deployed, which is another big one for those.

  765. Ge0rG has left

  766. moparisthebest

    Isn't 368 way easier and more efficient than 156

  767. moparisthebest

    If getting around firewalls is your goal that is

  768. Link Mauve

    Until your firewall starts blocking anything which doesn’t announce it is HTTP.

  769. moparisthebest

    Bottom line though if xmpp was being designed today do you doubt it would only support direct TLS?

  770. Link Mauve

    Because 0156 describes how to use this very HTTP everyone loves so much.

  771. Zash

    Weren't you the one who said "we'll still have websockets"?

  772. Link Mauve

    moparisthebest, that doesn’t matter, it has been invented twenty years ago, you can’t erase that.

  773. moparisthebest

    But you can move towards the ideal situation

  774. Link Mauve

    It’s not more ideal than the rest.

  784. moparisthebest

    Link Mauve: wait you said 10% of your users are using the xep368 srv record? That seems huge if it's a lower priority

  785. Zash

    Link Mauve: Is it set up so you can detect connections that ignored or failed to get SRV records?

  786. Zash

    Like yax.im is, iirc.

  787. Link Mauve

    Zash, yes.

  788. Zash

    And, iirc, also produces depressing numbers.

  789. Zash

    Like how 90% of all users on a thing I used to run were using DIGEST-MD5 and the rest were using PLAIN

  790. moparisthebest

    That seems like a huge number of users that otherwise wouldn't be able to connect

  791. edhelas

    so looks like Movim is having a "okay" working solution to do video-conferencing with pure WebRTC and Jingle :)

  792. moparisthebest

    Also considering only a couple clients support it

  793. Link Mauve

    moparisthebest, or plain ignore the settings and connect to 5223 anyway.

  794. Zash

    or got SRV sorting wrong

  795. la|r|ma

    edhelas, did you try out cross-browser?

  796. moparisthebest

    Conversations does it right mixing and all, it would connect to 5222 if it could

  803. edhelas

    I don't know if there's a WebRTC implementation in Java for Android

  804. edhelas

    la|r|ma don't know, don't have Macs at home :D

  805. la|r|ma

    you can use chromes libwebrtc on android

  806. moparisthebest

    edhelas: actually a conversations fork has webrtc support

  807. edhelas

    moparisthebest well I basically had everything in the XEPs to do the conversion between SDP and Jingle

  808. moparisthebest

    Just signaling doesn't use xmpp

  809. edhelas

    https://github.com/movim/movim/blob/master/lib/SDPtoJingle.php

  810. moparisthebest

    So take some code from there, implement signaling part with jingle, done

  811. la|r|ma

    moparisthebest, which fork?
