irmd: Remove duplicate OAP test

2026-01-23T07:26:15+00:00

There was a previous version of the authentication tests lingering in the irmd/test folder (it was moved to irmd/oap/tests/). Also enables the disabling of the Ouroboros logging in the oap tests. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

lib: Add post-quantum cryptography support

2026-01-19T07:29:29+00:00

This adds initial support for runtime-configurable encryption and post-quantum Key Encapsulation Mechanisms (KEMs) and authentication (ML-DSA). Supported key exchange algorithms: ECDH: prime256v1, secp384r1, secp521r1, X25519, X448 Finite Field DH: ffdhe2048, ffdhe3072, ffdhe4096 ML-KEM (FIPS 203): ML-KEM-512, ML-KEM-768, ML-KEM-1024 Hybrid KEMs: X25519MLKEM768, X448MLKEM1024 Supported ciphers: AEAD: aes-128-gcm, aes-192-gcm, aes-256-gcm, chacha20-poly1305 CTR: aes-128-ctr, aes-192-ctr, aes-256-ctr Supported HKDFs: sha256, sha384, sha512, sha3-256, sha3-384, sha3-512, blake2b512, blake2s256 Supported Digests for DSA: sha256, sha384, sha512, sha3-256, sha3-384, sha3-512, blake2b512, blake2s256 PQC support requires OpenSSL 3.4.0+ and is detected automatically via CMake. A DISABLE_PQC option allows building without PQC even when available. KEMs differ from traditional DH in that they require asymmetric roles: one party encapsulates to the other's public key. This creates a coordination problem during simultaneous reconnection attempts. The kem_mode configuration parameter resolves this by pre-assigning roles: kem_mode=server # Server encapsulates (1-RTT, full forward secrecy) kem_mode=client # Client encapsulates (0-RTT, cached server key) The enc.conf file format supports: kex= # Key exchange algorithm cipher= # Symmetric cipher kdf= # Key derivation function digest= # Digest for DSA kem_mode= # Server (default) or client none # Disable encryption The OAP protocol is extended to negotiate algorithms and exchange KEX data. All KEX messages are signed using existing authentication infrastructure for integrity and replay protection. Tests are split into base and _pqc variants to handle conditional PQC compilation (kex_test.c/kex_test_pqc.c, oap_test.c/oap_test_pqc.c). Bumped minimum required OpenSSL version for encryption to 3.0 (required for HKDF API). 1.1.1 is long time EOL. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

build: Refactor CMake modules

2026-01-07T09:00:06+00:00

This moves the CMake build logic out of the source tree and splits it up into a more modular form. The tests now have a CMakeLists.txt file in their respective source directory. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders

irmd: Add flow authentication

2025-08-18T18:57:23+00:00

This adds initial implementation of peer authentication as part of flow allocation. If credentials are not provided, this will be accepted and logged as info that the flow is not authenticated. Certificates and keys are passed as .pem files. The key file should not be encrypted, else the IRMd will open a prompt for the password. The default location for these .pem files is in /etc/ouroboros/security. It is strongly recommended to make this directory only accessible to root. ├── security │ ├── cacert │ │ └── ca.root.o7s.crt.pem │ ├── client │ │ ├── │ │ | ├── crt.pem │ │ | └── key.pem │ │ └── | | ├──... | | │ ├── server │ │ ├── │ │ | ├── crt.pem │ │ | └── key.pem │ │ └── | | ├── ... | | │ └── untrusted │ └── sign.root.o7s.crt.pem Trusted root CA certificates go in the /cacert directory, untrusted certificates for signature verification go in the /untrusted directory. The IRMd will load these certificates at boot. The IRMd will look for certificates in the /client and /server directories. For each name a subdirectory can be added and the credentials in that directory are used to sign the OAP header for flows at flow_alloc() on the client side and flow_accept() on the server side. These defaults can be changed at build time using the following variables (in alphabetical order): OUROBOROS_CA_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/cacert OUROBOROS_CLI_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/client OUROBOROS_SECURITY_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security OUROBOROS_SRV_CRT_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/server OUROBOROS_UNTRUSTED_DIR /etc/ouroboros/security/untrusted The directories for the names can also be configured at IRMd boot using the configuraton file and at runtime when a name is created using the "irm name create" CLI tool. The user needs to have permissions to access the keyfile and certificate when specifying the paths with the "irm name create" CLI tool. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens

irmd: Initial Flow Allocation Protocol Header

2025-07-23T13:07:52+00:00

This adds the initial version for the flow allocation protocol header between IRMd instances. This is a step towards flow authentication. The header supports secure and authenticated flow allocation, supporting certificate-based authentication and ephemeral key exchange for end-to-end encryption. id: 128-bit identifier for the entity. timestamp: 64-bit timestamp (replay protection). certificate: Certificate for authentication. public key: ECDHE public key for key exchange. data: Application data. signature: Signature for integrity/authenticity. Authentication and encryption require OpenSSL to be installed. The IRMd compares the allocation request delay with the MPL of the Layer over which the flow allocation was sent. MPL is now reported by the Layer in ms instead of seconds. Time functions revised for consistency and adds some tests. The TPM can now print thread running times in Debug builds (TPM_DEBUG_REPORT_INTERVAL) and abort processes with hung threads (TPM_DEBUG_ABORT_TIMEOUT). Long running threads waiting for input should call tpm_wait_work() to avoid trigger a process abort. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders
