Umgang mit Schlüsselmaterial

Schlüsselmaterial identifiziert die kryptografischen Geheimnisse, aus denen ein Schlüssel besteht.
Sämtliches Schlüsselmaterial muss als RESTRICTED-Daten behandelt werden

Nur Personen mit spezieller Ausbildung und dem Bedarf an Wissen sollten Zugang zu Schlüsselmaterial haben.
Das Schlüsselmaterial muss bei der Übertragung verschlüsselt werden.
Schlüsselmaterial kann im Klartext gespeichert werden, aber nur mit einer angemessenen Zugangskontrolle (begrenzter Zugang).

Dazu gehören

OpenSSH server keys (/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*key)
Client keys (~/.ssh/id_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa,ed25519} and ~/.ssh/identity).

Client key size and login latency

Figure out the impact on performance of using larger keys

Such as RSA 4096 bytes keys - on the client side

Tests

Idle, i7 4500 intel CPU

OpenSSH_6.7p1
OpenSSL 1.0.1l
ed25519 server keys

The following command is ran 10 times

time ssh localhost -i .ssh/id_thekey exit

Results

Client key	Minimum	Maximum	Average
RSA 4096	120ms	145ms	127ms
RSA 2048	120ms	129ms	127ms
ed25519	117ms	138ms	120ms

Slower Machines

These numbers may differ on a slower machine

This contains the complete login sequence
Therefore is subject to variations

Summery

The latency differences are not significant
It does not impact performance sufficiently

SSH Server

SSH is used to

remotely manage computer systems
secururly transfer files over untrusted networks
create "ad-hoc" virtual-private networks

OpenSSH

OpenSSH is the most popular implementation of the SSH protocol
It is maintained by the OpenBSD project
portable versions are disitributed with many unix-like operating-systems and Windows Server

Tested with Version

OpenSSH 6.6p1 (Gentoo)
OpenSSH 6.6p1-2 on Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
OpenSSH 7.2p2 on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS

Kompatibilität

Older Linux systems won’t support SHA2
PuTTY (Windows) does not support RIPE-MD160
Curve25519, AES-GCM and UMAC are only available upstream (OpenSSH 6.6p1)
DSA host keys have been removed on purpose, the DSS standard does not support for DSA keys stronger than 1024bit [5] which is far below current standards (see section #section:keylengths)
Legacy systems can use this configuration and simply omit unsupported ciphers, key exchange algorithms and MACs

References

The OpenSSH sshd_config — OpenSSH SSH daemon configuration file man page is the best reference:

How to test

Connect a client with verbose logging enabled to the SSH server

$ ssh -vvv myserver.com

and observe the key exchange in the output.

Cisco ASA

Tested with Versions

9.1(3)

Settings

crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
ssh version 2
ssh key-exchange group dh-group14-sha1

When the ASA is configured for SSH, by default both SSH versions 1 and 2 are allowed.
In addition to that, only a group1 DH-key-exchange is used.
This should be changed to allow only SSH version 2 and to use a key-exchange with group14.
The generated RSA key should be 2048 bit (the actual supported maximum).
A non-cryptographic best practice is to reconfigure the lines to only allow SSH-logins.

CLI Book 1: Cisco ASA Series General Operations CLI Configuration Guide, 9.1

How to test

Connect a client with verbose logging enabled to the SSH server

$ ssh -vvv myserver.com

and observe the key exchange in the output.

Cisco IOS

Tested Versions

Program Version	OS/Distribution/Version	Comment
15.0	IOS
15.1	IOS
15.2	IOS

Settings

crypto key generate rsa modulus 4096 label SSH-KEYS
ip ssh rsa keypair-name SSH-KEYS
ip ssh version 2
ip ssh dh min size 2048
line vty 0 15
transport input ssh

Same as with the ASA, also on IOS by default both SSH versions 1 and 2 are allowed and the DH-key-exchange only use a DH-group of 768 Bit.
In IOS, a dedicated Key-pair can be bound to SSH to reduce the usage of individual keys-pairs.
From IOS Version 15.0 onwards, 4096 Bit rsa keys are supported and should be used according to the paradigm "use longest supported key".
Also, do not forget to disable telnet vty access.

	This guide is a basic SSH reference for all routers and switches. Pleaes refer to the specific documentation of the device and IOS version that you are configuring.

How to test

Connect a client with verbose logging enabled to the SSH server

$ ssh -vvv switch.example.net

and observe the key exchange in the output.

Ciphers and algorithms choice

When CHACHA20 (OpenSSH 6.5+) is not available, AES-GCM (OpenSSH 6.1+) and any other algorithm using EtM (Encrypt then MAC) disclose the packet length - giving some information to the attacker.
Only recent OpenSSH servers and client support CHACHA20.

NIST curves (ecdh-sha2-nistp512,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp256) are listed for compatibility, but the use of curve25519 is generally preferred.

SSH protocol 2 supports DH and ECDH key-exchange as well as forward secrecy.
Regarding group sizes, please refer to Security/Guidelines/Key_Management.

The various algorithms supported by a particular OpenSSH version can be listed with the following commands:

$ ssh -Q cipher
$ ssh -Q cipher-auth
$ ssh -Q mac
$ ssh -Q kex
$ ssh -Q key
