1.406 deraadt 67: <li><h3><font color="#e00000">Goals</font></h3><p>
1.22 deraadt 68:
1.14 deraadt 69: OpenBSD believes in strong security. Our aspiration is to be NUMBER
1.22 deraadt 70: ONE in the industry for security (if we are not already there). Our
71: open software development model permits us to take a more
72: uncompromising view towards increased security than Sun, SGI, IBM, HP,
73: or other vendors are able to. We can make changes the vendors would
1.27 deraadt 74: not make. Also, since OpenBSD is exported with <a href=crypto.html>
1.45 deraadt 75: cryptography</a>, we are able to take cryptographic approaches towards
76: fixing security problems.<p>
1.18 deraadt 77:
1.288 matthieu 78: <a name="disclosure"></a>
1.294 david 79: <li><h3><font color="#e00000">Full Disclosure</font></h3><p>
1.106 deraadt 80:
1.45 deraadt 81: Like many readers of the
1.196 jufi 82: <a href="http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1">
1.18 deraadt 83: BUGTRAQ mailing list</a>,
1.106 deraadt 84: we believe in full disclosure of security problems. In the
85: operating system arena, we were probably the first to embrace
86: the concept. Many vendors, even of free software, still try
87: to hide issues from their users.<p>
88:
89: Security information moves very fast in cracker circles. On the other
90: hand, our experience is that coding and releasing of proper security
91: fixes typically requires about an hour of work -- very fast fix
92: turnaround is possible. Thus we think that full disclosure helps the
93: people who really care about security.<p>
94:
1.288 matthieu 95: <a name="process"></a>
1.294 david 96: <li><h3><font color="#e00000">Audit Process</font></h3><p>
1.15 deraadt 97:
1.12 deraadt 98: Our security auditing team typically has between six and twelve
1.45 deraadt 99: members who continue to search for and fix new security holes. We
100: have been auditing since the summer of 1996. The process we follow to
101: increase security is simply a comprehensive file-by-file analysis of
1.106 deraadt 102: every critical software component. We are not so much looking for
103: security holes, as we are looking for basic software bugs, and if
1.138 deraadt 104: years later someone discovers the problem used to be a security
1.106 deraadt 105: issue, and we fixed it because it was just a bug, well, all the
106: better. Flaws have been found in just about every area of the system.
107: Entire new classes of security problems have been found during our
108: audit, and often source code which had been audited earlier needs
109: re-auditing with these new flaws in mind. Code often gets audited
110: multiple times, and by multiple people with different auditing
111: skills.<p>
1.12 deraadt 112:
1.94 deraadt 113: Some members of our security auditing team worked for Secure Networks,
114: the company that made the industry's premier network security scanning
115: software package Ballista (Secure Networks got purchased by Network
116: Associates, Ballista got renamed to Cybercop Scanner, and well...)
117: That company did a lot of security research, and thus fit in well
1.106 deraadt 118: with the OpenBSD stance. OpenBSD passed Ballista's tests with flying
119: colours since day 1.<p>
1.31 deraadt 120:
1.34 deraadt 121: Another facet of our security auditing process is its proactiveness.
1.45 deraadt 122: In most cases we have found that the determination of exploitability
123: is not an issue. During our ongoing auditing process we find many
124: bugs, and endeavor to fix them even though exploitability is not
125: proven. We fix the bug, and we move on to find other bugs to fix. We
126: have fixed many simple and obvious careless programming errors in code
127: and only months later discovered that the problems were in fact
128: exploitable. (Or, more likely someone on
1.197 jufi 129: <a href="http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1">BUGTRAQ</a>
1.45 deraadt 130: would report that other operating systems were vulnerable to a `newly
131: discovered problem', and then it would be discovered that OpenBSD had
132: been fixed in a previous release). In other cases we have been saved
133: from full exploitability of complex step-by-step attacks because we
134: had fixed one of the intermediate steps. An example of where we
1.94 deraadt 135: managed such a success is the lpd advisory that Secure Networks put out.

1.294 david 139: <li><h3><font color="#e00000">New Technologies</font></h3><p>
1.278 deraadt 140:
141: As we audit source code, we often invent new ways of solving problems.
142: Sometimes these ideas have been used before in some random application
143: written somewhere, but perhaps not taken to the degree that we do.

1.294 david 166: <li><h3><font color="#e00000">The Reward</font></h3><p>
1.106 deraadt 167:
1.45 deraadt 168: Our proactive auditing process has really paid off. Statements like
1.35 deraadt 169: ``This problem was fixed in OpenBSD about 6 months ago'' have become
1.45 deraadt 170: commonplace in security forums like
1.197 jufi 171: <a href="http://online.securityfocus.com/archive/1">BUGTRAQ</a>.<p>
1.35 deraadt 172:
1.45 deraadt 173: The most intense part of our security auditing happened immediately
1.80 espie 174: before the OpenBSD 2.0 release and during the 2.0->2.1 transition,
1.45 deraadt 175: over the last third of 1996 and first half of 1997. Thousands (yes,
176: thousands) of security issues were fixed rapidly over this year-long
177: period; bugs like the standard buffer overflows, protocol
178: implementation weaknesses, information gathering, and filesystem
179: races. Hence most of the security problems that we encountered were
180: fixed before our 2.1 release, and then a far smaller number needed
181: fixing for our 2.2 release. We do not find as many problems anymore,
182: it is simply a case of diminishing returns. Recently the security
183: problems we find and fix tend to be significantly more obscure or
184: complicated. Still we will persist for a number of reasons:<p>
1.36 deraadt 185:
1.35 deraadt 186: <ul>
1.45 deraadt 187: <li>Occasionally we find a simple problem we missed earlier. Doh!
1.35 deraadt 188: <li>Security is like an arms race; the best attackers will continue
1.45 deraadt 189: to search for more complicated exploits, so we will too.
190: <li>Finding and fixing subtle flaws in complicated software is
191: a lot of fun.
1.35 deraadt 192: </ul>
1.106 deraadt 193: <p>
1.15 deraadt 194:
1.14 deraadt 195: The auditing process is not over yet, and as you can see we continue
1.28 deraadt 196: to find and fix new security flaws.<p>

1.294 david 199: <li><h3><font color="#e00000">"Secure by Default"</font></h3><p>
1.106 deraadt 200:
201: To ensure that novice users of OpenBSD do not need to become security
202: experts overnight (a viewpoint which other vendors seem to have), we
203: ship the operating system in a Secure by Default mode. All non-essential
204: services are disabled. As the user/administrator becomes more familiar
205: with the system, he will discover that he has to enable daemons and other
206: parts of the system. During the process of learning how to enable a new
207: service, the novice is more likely to learn of security considerations.<p>
208:
209: This is in stark contrast to the increasing number of systems that
210: ship with NFS, mountd, web servers, and various other services enabled
211: by default, creating instantaneous security problems for their users
212: within minutes after their first install.<p>
