Upcoming problem for Fedora 38 rpms

Reported by: Yoda Owned by:
Component: installer Version: VirtualBox-7.0.6
Keywords: Fedora 38 Cc:
Guest type: all Host type: Linux

Description

Fedora 38 (currently Rawhide - but due to be released in April) has tightened the security on the crypto on the rpm packages. While we until only few day ago could use your released Fedora36 packages on even rawhide, that is no longer possible, because your signing mechanism is now outdated.

This is just a heads up for Fedora 38 release in april - it should not affect current Fedora 35/36/37 releases.

Please read this blogpost from nirik about the changes: https://www.scrye.com/wordpress/nirik/2023/01/31/error-rpmdbnextiterator-skipping-in-fedora-38/

Hi Yoda,

Thank you for pointing out. We will use SHA-256 signatures for feature releases. The following RPM is the official 7.0.6 release build, but signed with SHA-256 instead of SHA-1. Could you please give it a try?

https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VirtualBox-7.0-7.0.6_155176_fedora36-1.x86_64.rpm

comment:2 by Yoda, 21 months ago

Hi again.

I just installed and tested that package with F36+F37+F38+F39(Rawhide) It works perfect with all releases - even kernel 6.3.0-rc0 on rawhide works :-)

comment:3 by pgnd, 20 months ago

I just upgraded Fedora 37 -> Fedora 38, and see the same issue on attempt to repo-update.

It's the key,

wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc rpm --import ./oracle_vbox.asc

warning: Certificate 54422A4B98AB5139:

Policy rejects subkey B6748A65281DDC4B: Policy rejected asymmetric algorithm

, apparently due to tightened policy described in the ref'd link

The TMP policy change works

Is there a fix in the works?

comment:4 by galitsyn, 20 months ago

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Hi guys,

VirtualBox 7.0.8 was just released and available at https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads. This issue should be fixed there. Could you please give it a try?

I'm afraid you goofed up something - it fails on all Fedora versions: Fedora 36 - x86_64 - VirtualBox 5.2 kB/s | 819 B 00:00 Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'virtualbox': repomd.xml GPG signature verification error: Bad GPG signature Ignorerer softwarearkiver: virtualbox

comment:6 by Yoda, 20 months ago

On F38 is shows same GPG error as F37. However if I override that GPG check then it installs. That tells me that the new rpm does have the correct SHA256 checksums, as --nogpgcheck does not override the crypto policy.

I assume you just happen to have used a wrong gpg key for the signing.

btw we _really_ miss "repos" for F37 and F38 - should be a simple thing, as F36 build works perfectly on both

comment:7 by Yoda, 20 months ago

ok, just got info from klaus about the fixes to the .repo file we use for Fedora - and after updating that it just works again. For everybody reading this ticket update your .repo file according to: https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/rpm/fedora/virtualbox.repo

comment:8 by pgnd, 19 months ago

on F38, with new repo, dnf update/install still fails @ gpgkey. issue with curl?

Hi guys,

Everything works here if I do "dnf up" / "yum up" after .repo file changes.

comment:10 by pgnd, 19 months ago

the problem's 'in' the dnf exec. as above, there's something up with curl/cert/protocol

dnf clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/dnf
dnf up

Hi pgnd,

There were no recent changes in www.virtualbox.org certificate. Is there a chance that your Fedora 38 installation has stricter policies enabled which forbid TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1?

F38 is not my primary distribution, so I cannot say much about the issue you are experiencing. What is the output of "update-crypto-policies --show" ?

comment:12 by pgnd, 19 months ago

pebkac. sort of.

our server side TLS policy here is

	https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Server_Side_TLS#Modern_compatibility

that includes

	Cipher suites (TLS 1.3): TLS_AES_128_GCM_SHA256:TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384:TLS_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256
	Cipher suites (TLS 1.2): (none)

clients, for a fair while now, match.  we typically don't allow non-TLS 1.3 anymore.

checking, virtualbox.org's ssl report

	https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=virtualbox.org

shows no tls 1.3 support; only 1.2.  and of those, only 1 strong,

	TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 

adding that suite to

	CipherSuites

in

	/etc/ssl/openssl.conf

does the trick.

curl & dnf curl with the new repo gpgkey url work fine, now.

wget wasn't sentitive to openssl config, as

	ldd `which wget` |grep -Ei "ssl|tls"
        libgnutls.so.30 => /lib64/libgnutls.so.30 (0x00007efd79200000)

	ldd `which curl` |grep -Ei "ssl|tls"
        libssl.so.3 => /lib64/libssl.so.3 (0x00007fad4132c000)

it would be helpful virtualbox.org server to get bumped to include tls1.3 support.

comment:13 by Klaus Espenlaub, 19 months ago

The project to modernize (on the technical side, plus updating the applications to new versions) the virtualbox.org stuff is actually ongoing for quite a while. There is still some uncertainty when the switchover will happen.

In the mean time: the public key has been available for a long time at the following URL: https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox_2016.asc

This server can handle TLS 1.3 (but for some odd reason isn't using HSTS even though someone at Oracle told me they'd unconditionally enable it several years ago for everything on this server - we were actively supporting the plan).
