[Bug 1904988] Re: [SRU] set defaults to be sslv23 not tlsv1

[Robie Basak]

Hello Hua, or anyone else affected,

Accepted python-eventlet into xenial-proposed. The package will build
now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-
eventlet/0.18.4-1ubuntu2 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed
repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-xenial. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

** Changed in: python-eventlet (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: Triaged => Fix Committed

** Tags added: verification-needed verification-needed-xenial

Title:
  [SRU] set defaults to be sslv23 not tlsv1

Status in python-eventlet package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in python-eventlet source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * python-eventlet=0.18.4-1ubuntu1 (xenial) is applying the d/p/set-
  defaults-to-be-tlsv1-not-sslv23.patch to set defaults to be tlsv1 not
  sslv23

  * This will prevent xenial users from using tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2, so we
  should set defaults to be sslv23 not tlsv1 to allow xenial users enjoy
  the benefit of tlsv1_2 as well.

  * set-defaults-to-be-tlsv1-not-sslv23.patch was already dropped by
  python-eventlet 0.19.0-2 [1] in Ubuntu Yakkety.

  [Test Case]

  * Install an SSL based Spice OpenStack test env, and apply this
  python-eventlet patch as well onto the nova-cloud-controller units.

  * Run the "nmap --script ssl-enum-ciphers -p 6082 <spice-ip>" test and
  confirm whether it shows tlsv1_2

  [Regression Potential]

  xenial uses openssl=1.0.2g-1ubuntu4.17, so according to page [2] after
  openssl 1.0.0 an SSLv23 client would not attempt SSLv2 connections so
  it just brings tlsv1_0, tlsv1_1 and tlsv1_2, it's more convenient and
  safer than just having tlsv1_0. and the upstream is also using sslv23
  as well [3], and python-eventlet=0.19.0-2 started to the same thing as
  well.

  So no regression is expected.

  [Discussion]
  The first package upload was missing the bug reference so a second package was uploaded. The first can be rejected.
