EAP-TLS with server and client certificates by different CA
by Mikhail Gaidamaka 05 Aug '15

05 Aug '15

Good day We use FreeRADIUS 2.1.10 to authorize wi-fi clients. Step 1: many client's devices check server certificate, than we have Comodo EssentialSSL certificate for server. Its certificate chain: - radius_eltex_nsk_ru.crt - http://crt.comodoca.com/COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt - http://crt.comodoca.com/COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt - AddTrust External CA Root EAP-PEAP-mschapv2 works good with this certificate. Step 2: we want to authorize clients with EAP-TLS We create self-signed CA (/etc/ssl/eltex/eltex-ca.crt) and any clients certs (maria.crt, for example). eap.conf has this parameters eap { default_eap_type = peap timer_expire = 60 ignore_unknown_eap_types = no cisco_accounting_username_bug = no max_sessions = 4096 md5 { } leap { } gtc { #challenge = "Password: " auth_type = PAP } tls { certdir = ${confdir}/certs cadir = /etc/ssl/eltex private_key_password = 123456 private_key_file = ${certdir}/radius.eltex.nsk.ru.key certificate_file = ${certdir}/radius_eltex_nsk_ru.crt CA_file = ${cadir}/eltex-ca.crt \ ${certdir}/COMODORSADomainValidationSecureServerCA.crt \ ${certdir}/COMODORSAAddTrustCA.crt \ ${certdir}/AddTrustExternalCARoot.crt dh_file = ${certdir}/dh random_file = /dev/urandom # fragment_size = 1024 # include_length = yes # check_crl = yes CA_path = ${certdir} # check_cert_issuer = "/C=GB/ST=Berkshire/L=Newbury/O=My Company Ltd" # check_cert_cn = %{User-Name} cipher_list = "DEFAULT" make_cert_command = "${certdir}/bootstrap" cache { enable = no lifetime = 24 # hours max_entries = 255 } verify { tmpdir = /tmp/radiusd client = "/usr/bin/openssl verify -CApath ${..cadir} %{TLS-Client-Cert-Filename}" } } 'cadir' contains eltex-ca.crt, eltex-ca.key only And now we can't authorize with EAP-TLS Client's device sends 'alert unknown ca' (what CA - server or client I can't understand) It was OK, when server ant client certificate were both signed by eltex-ca. I get this error at /var/log/syslog wpa_supplicant[926]: TLS: Certificate verification failed, error 20 (unable to get local issuer certificate) depth 0 for '/OU=Domain Control Validated/OU=EssentialSSL/CN=radius.eltex.nsk.ru' wpa_supplicant[926]: OpenSSL: tls_connection_handshake - SSL_connect error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed I try to install all my server certs to system # sudo update-ca-certificates 4 added, 0 removed; done.

But it still not authorized with the same error Can we use server and client certificates signed by different CA at one server?

[ANN] Better JSON parsing
by Arran Cudbard-Bell 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

v3.1.x rlm_json module registers a map function to allow mapping fields from JSON structures to attributes. The path through the JSON object is specified with fr jpath, which is the FreeRADIUS implementation of the jpath grammar described here: http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/ rlm_json currently implements a subset of the grammar described by the above implementation. Selectors currently implemented are: - $ Root node (only valid at the start of the path). - @ Current node (only valid at the start of the path). - .<name> A field within an object. - [<idx>] Index within an array. - [<start>:<end>[:<step>]] A slice within an array (identical to the Python syntax). - [<idx>,<start>:<end>] Multiple indexes/slices within an array. - .* All the children of the current node Automatic casting will occur between JSON and attribute types where possible. FreeRADIUS does not currently have a signed64 or floating point type, to map large signed numbers and JSON doubles to. These may instead be written to string type attributes. Assignment of JSON objects/arrays to strings is supported, in which case the JSON serialized form of the object/array is used. If a jpath matches multiple nodes, unless the map includes the += operator only the first node's value will be used. If the map uses += then multiple instances of the attribute will be created, each holding a different node value. Simple example: { "user": "bob", "account number": 7124503, "groups": { "admin", "networks", "bob" } } map json "%{rest:GET http://example.org/api/user/%{User-Name}" { &Tmp-Integer-0 := '$.account number' &Group += '$.groups.*" }

Hi, I'm using freeradius 3.0.8 as proxy, but i can't generate CoA packets to server 10.0.0.1 on port 4141. What i'm doing wrong? Am i missing something? I've added to my accounting section: update coa { Packet-Dst-IP-Address = 10.0.0.1 Packet-Dst-Port = 4141 User-Name = "%{User-Name}" Acct-Session-Id = "%{Acct-Session-Id}" NAS-IP-Address = "%{NAS-IP-Address}" Framed-IP-Address = "%{Framed-IP-Address}" Mikrotik-Rate-Limit = "256k/256k" } And in my originate-coa i have: home_server example-coa { type = coa ipaddr = 10.0.0.1 port = 4141 secret = testing coa { irt = 2 mrt = 16 mrc = 5 mrd = 30 } } home_server_pool coa { type = fail-over home_server = example-coa virtual_server = originate-coa.example.com } server originate-coa.example.com { pre-proxy { #update proxy-request { #NAS-IP-Address = 192.0.2.42 #} } post-proxy { switch &proxy-reply:Packet-Type { case CoA-ACK { ok } case CoA-NAK { ok } case Disconnect-ACK { ok } case Disconnect-NAK { ok } case { fail } } Post-Proxy-Type Fail-CoA { ok } Post-Proxy-Type Fail-Disconnect { ok } } } Thanks for your help.

Problem with Simultaneous-Use
by Felipe Lopez Placencio 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

Hi, We are trying to configure our WLC Cisco + FreeRadius + LDAP to WiFi web authentication. At the moment, we have configured almost everything, but still we can't enable the Simultaneous-Use feature. LDAP works fine, we don't have authentication problems. We are using FreeRadius 2.1.12 (Centos 5.11). - The command *radcheck* doesn't show anything, and also doesn't work properly in debbug mode. - The *radutmp* file only save the last logged. We have tried a lot of things but nothing works, Can you help us, please? We stay attentive to any question you have, or if you need some log file (in this case, we did not find any relevant file that attach). Thanks in advance. Below I attach our configuration (the files more important). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *User* # SUBRED 1.64, vlan 222 DEFAULT Huntgroup-Name == "SSIDFuncionarios", Ldap-Group == "Empleados", Auth-Type := LDAP , Simultaneous-Use := 2 #SUBRED 1.96,vlan 223 DEFAULT Huntgroup-Name == "SSIDAlumnos", Ldap-Group == "Alumnos", Auth-Type := LDAP, Simultaneous-Use := 2 #SUBRED 1.128, vlan 224 DEFAULT Huntgroup-Name == "SSIDInvitados",Ldap-Group == "invitados", Auth-Type := LDAP DEFAULT Huntgroup-Name == "SSIDFuncionariosPiloto", Ldap-Group == "Empleados", Auth-Type := LDAP, Simultaneous-Use := 2 DEFAULT Auth-Type := REJECT reply-message = "USUARIO DESCONOCIDO O NO ASOCIADO A UN GRUPO" Client.conf client 158.251.4.0/24 { secret = xxxxx shortname = PUCV nastype = cisco } Radiusd.conf prefix = /usr exec_prefix = /usr sysconfdir = /etc localstatedir = /var sbindir = /usr/sbin logdir = ${localstatedir}/log/radius raddbdir = ${sysconfdir}/raddb radacctdir = ${logdir}/radacct # name of the running server.

When # executing as root (or another user), your personal environment MAY # be set up to allow the dynamic linker to find the library. When # executing as a daemon, FreeRADIUS MAY NOT have the same # personalized configuration. # # To work around the problem, find out which library contains that symbol, # and add the directory containing that library to the end of 'libdir', # with a colon separating the directory names. NO spaces are allowed. # # e.g. libdir = /usr/local/lib:/opt/package/lib # # You can also try setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable # in a script which starts the server. # # If that does not work, then you can re-configure and re-build the # server to NOT use shared libraries, via: # # ./configure --disable-shared # make # make install # libdir = /usr/lib/freeradius # pidfile: Where to place the PID of the RADIUS server. # # The server may be signalled while it's running by using this # file. # # This file is written when ONLY running in daemon mode. # # e.g.: kill -HUP `cat /var/run/radiusd/radiusd.pid` # pidfile = ${run_dir}/${name}.pid # chroot: directory where the server does "chroot". # # The chroot is done very early in the process of starting the server. # After the chroot has been performed it switches to the "user" listed # below (which MUST be specified). If "group" is specified, it switchs # to that group, too. Any other groups listed for the specified "user" # in "/etc/group" are also added as part of this process. # # The current working directory (chdir / cd) is left *outside* of the # chroot until all of the modules have been initialized. This allows # the "raddb" directory to be left outside of the chroot. Once the # modules have been initialized, it does a "chdir" to ${logdir}. This # means that it should be impossible to break out of the chroot. # # If you are worried about security issues related to this use of chdir, # then simply ensure that the "raddb" directory is inside of the chroot, # end be sure to do "cd raddb" BEFORE starting the server. # # If the server is statically linked, then the only files that have # to exist in the chroot are ${run_dir} and ${logdir}. If you do the # "cd raddb" as discussed above, then the "raddb" directory has to be # inside of the chroot directory, too. # #chroot = /path/to/chroot/directory # user/group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run radiusd as. # # If these are commented out, the server will run as the user/group # that started it. In order to change to a different user/group, you # MUST be root ( or have root privleges ) to start the server. # # We STRONGLY recommend that you run the server with as few permissions # as possible. That is, if you're not using shadow passwords, the # user and group items below should be set to radius'. # # NOTE that some kernels refuse to setgid(group) when the value of # (unsigned)group is above 60000; don't use group nobody on these systems! # # On systems with shadow passwords, you might have to set 'group = shadow' # for the server to be able to read the shadow password file. If you can # authenticate users while in debug mode, but not in daemon mode, it may be # that the debugging mode server is running as a user that can read the # shadow info, and the user listed below can not. # # The server will also try to use "initgroups" to read /etc/groups. # It will join all groups where "user" is a member.

Authentication and authorization with PAM
by JCA 04 Aug '15

04 Aug '15

I have a Linux L system in which the password authentication is carried out against a remote RADIUS server R by means of PAM in L. This works as expected, but I would like to use this mechanism to do authorization chores, besides the authentication ones. As part of a successful authentication, R will send back to L (in addition to the successful authentication packet) a series of attributes that L will interpret as authorization parameters - e.g. a list of groups that the user that has been authenticated is to belong to. My understanding is that the PAM RADIUS module pam_radius.so is the one that interacts with the RADIUS server, and it therefore behooves this module to interpret the authentication information, and act on it. Looking into the documentation for the current pam_radius.so module, it would seem that it contains no support for this - i.e. in order to accomplish what I am describing I need to develop a PAM RADIUS of my own. Is this correct?

Can TLS related errors include client identifying info?
by Mohamed Lrhazi 03 Aug '15

03 Aug '15

Hello, Is there a way to tweak the logging to be able to identify the users that are causing these errors: Aug 3 14:57:09 [daemon.debug] radiusd: (1157717) eap_peap: ERROR: TLS_accept: Failed in SSLv3 read client certificate A Aug 3 14:57:09 [daemon.err] radiusd: SSL: SSL_read failed in a system call (-1), TLS session fails. Ideally userids, MAC addresses... could linelog be an option? Thanks a lot, Mohamed.

System frequently stops responding...
by Mohamed Lrhazi 03 Aug '15

03 Aug '15

Hello, Run into an issue today, which digging in the logs seems to have going on for a while, but somehow became extreme today... Not sure yet what the root cause is.. might not be FreeRADIUS. I have four instances of 3.0.8, running in containers, two per VM. a load balancer routes traffic to the nodes, with username based persistence. We have several Cisco wireless controllers that use this RAIDUS setup.... very frequently, they have been logging that the RADIUS server failed to respond, and log the user name and the station id. I tracked lots of such instances, and found the packets do arrive at the VMs, but no reply is sent out. Sometime later system would respond fine to some other incoming packets! I find nothing in the logs related the failed requests, not from FreeRADIUS and not from iptables... The load on the VMs is constantly close to 0. No RAM issues or any other issues I could see... I doubled the number of FreeRADIUS instances anyway... but the issue persisted. the Cisco's log the errors many times per minute.... I restarted the FreeRADIUS instances few times... to no avail. But then decided to reboot both VMs... and issue seems to have disappeared! At least for now. the uptime on the VMs was 92 days. they are redhat 6.6. any suggestions on how to further debug such behavior, if it were to start again? Thanks a lot, Mohamed.

[ANN] Redis 3.0 support in v3.1.x
by Arran Cudbard-Bell 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

Hi All, v3.1.x now supports Redis cluster natively. In addition to the standard redirect mechanism used by redis-cli, FreeRADIUS also maintains a mapping of key slots to cluster nodes, and will update this when it detects conditions that indicate that a failover has occurred. The code used for Redis cluster and non clustered Redis is identical, for the non clustered solution the cluster is treated as containing only a single node. It's possible start FreeRADIUS against a single clustered node, add that node to a cluster, and have FreeRADIUS dynamically discover and map the cluster, at runtime, without restarting. Redis cluster scales horizontally up to ~1000 nodes, though this implementation only supports 255. If anyone needs the full 1000, open an issue on the GitHub tracker, and we'll make the necessary modifications. Redis cluster is supported by rlm_redis, rlm_rediswho, and rlm_cache_redis. For rlm_redis (which registers the xlat), queries may be prefixed with a '-' to enable READONLY queries against slave nodes. The only current known limitation is that connection pool sharing does not work with redis cluster. This will be addressed in a future commit. Next step is to implement SSL session caching using attributes, this will allow multiple RADIUS servers to share SSL session information, introducing the possibility of FreeRADIUS clusters that can handle multiple millions of EAP-TLS/EAP-TTLS/EAP-PEAP users. -Arran

session log in SQL
by Khapare Joshi 31 Jul '15

31 Jul '15

Now its time to configure to log into SQL :) Until now we uses cisco wireless controller and only allow two connection for all users. I wanted to implement Simultaneous-user based in student and staff. and want to use sql for it. My users are authenticate against AD (samb +ntml_auth). So here is what I did : 1. Created database radius. 2. Populated admin.sql into the mysql 3. Populated schema.sql into the radius database 4. Enabled sql.conf in /etc/raddb/radius.conf 5. Disabled radutmp and enabled sql in accounting section in /etc/raddb/site-enabled/default 6. So, added DEFAULT Simultaneous-Use := 2 in /etc/raddb/users file for testing 7. restarted radius - try logging few users But I do not see any tables in radius database been updated. I just wanted to use session for the simultaneous user for restrict user. if this works then I can write regex to query LDAP if x is staff or student. Point me if i am doing wrong or some docs where I can see more reading reading reading. K
