The file is in the usual place. I link to the folder rather than a specific file because the filenames will change with each release cycle.

Thanks to Nicolas Mollet for the icons. I was getting sick of the default Google pushpin

NOT FOR NAVIGATION.

As usual, it's in the KML folder on my webserver.

NOT FOR NAVIGATION

Also, Military Training Routes are still not validated. I have no idea how accurate they are because I can't find the data in other forms.

Finally, the new AWOS file is AWOS data from the AWOS file only. Previously, it had included airports' AWOS data. Now it doesn't. On the upside, it does inlclude previously not-included AWOS-only stations. If you're wondering what those are, open it up and look at the Gulf of Mexico. There are two entries for each comment.

I really need to figure out the new XML airspace schema.

NOT FOR NAVIGATION.

This does NOT cover Windows domain authentication, or one-time-password tokens such as inSecureID.

It turns out that it is possible -- provided you follow some simple steps. The best part is that smartcard authentication to pfSense's implementation of OpenVPN doesn't require any server-side configuration changes. (Assuming you're already doing certificate-based authentication -- tls key too, if you want.) That's right. If you've got certificate-based authentication working, you don't need to change a single parameter on the pfSense side. You can also use your smart card to log in via SSH with Putty-SC and via https with Firefox.

Smart cards and tokens are often misunderstood. Mention "hardware security module" and people start to think you're a security geek. But smart cards are mini-HSMs. The card stores your certificate and key. It protects your key with a PIN. Some cards can store more certificates and keys than others, but that's the main concept. It separates your private key from the computer and protects it. Get the PIN wrong a few times and your card gets locked. Forget the PIN unlock code (PUK) and you may lock out the card permanently, which is exactly what should happen in a hardware security module.

But this is IT, where simple concepts are blown up by implementations. Every smart card brand and model is different. The middleware is all different. You have to get married to a card and its vendor's middleware to make it work. Even the HSPD-12/PIV standard is a standard for reading cards only. Administration is different for all vendor PIV implementations, creating millions of dollars in opportunities for card middleware vendors. (Hmmm, I wonder what the US national ID card is going to look like.)

Until OpenSC. OpenSC is the Smart Card project that's been open-sourcing card solutions for a number of years, and it pretty much works if you stick to cards they support.

Problem: they don't support that many cards and the cards they do support aren't sold many places. But you can buy ones that work for shipment to the US and Wassenar countries. I chose Aventra and it worked. Gooze's 2003 PKI USB tokens are up next for testing.

One key point: pkcs15 is a file structure for cards. pkcs11 is a software interface for cards. Read the OpenSC documentation twice before starting -- once for concepts and again for details.

When you buy the cards, you'll be offered a proprietary driver and middleware. Don't use it. Everything you need is at OpenSC-project.org. Stick with those drivers and their process. OpenSSL has an engine for cards: the PKCS11 engine. That lets you issue OpenSSL commands to get a CSR from the card's key. The other software component is pkcs11 shared object/dll file, or "driver." You point your smartcard-aware application at that so it knows where to find the software interface, which knows where to find certificates and ask for keys. (In windows, it's c:\windows\system32\opensc-pkcs11.dll; in Linux, it's wherever you stuck opensc-pkcs11.so.)

Once you get the card, install Open-SC, and stick the card in the reader. (You can install Open-SC on Linux or Windows and maybe Mac.)

1. Initialize the card:
pkcs15-init --create-pkcs15 --profile pkcs15 --use-default-transport-key --pin xxxxxxx --puk xxxxxxxxxx --label "larry" --so-pin xxxxx --so-puk xxxxxxx

(There are many different options, you'll need to read the documentation...)

2. Get the certificates on the card:
Method 1: Fast using your existing OpenVPN certificates:
In a nutshell, here's what you do. Take your OpenVPN client certificate and key, (and your CA chain if necessary), and export it using OpenSSL into a pkcs12 file. Then use OpenSC's pkcs15-init tool to get the pkcs12 file onto the card.

The command below exports your certificate and private key in the same form you can get it out of pfSense. It contains your private key, so don't leave it lying around.

openssl pkcs12 -export -out larry.p12 -in larry.pem -inkey larry.key

Once you've got that, get it on the card thus:

pkcs15-init --store-private-key larry.p12 --format pkcs12 --auth-id 01 --pin xxxxx

Method 2: Create a new card-only key, use your own CA
For advanced users with their own CA, there's another way: issue the command to the card to create a private key, then use the OpenSSL pkcs11 engine and the pkcs11 interface to generate a certificate request.

pkcs15-init --generate-key rsa2048 --auth-id 01 --pin xxxxx

This should take about 40 seconds on the MyEID card. Then get the slot ID for the key:
pkcs15-tool --list-keys

Using reader with a card: SCM SCR 3310 [CCID Interface] 00 00
Private RSA Key [Private Key]
Object Flags : [0x3], private, modifiable
Usage : [0x10E], decrypt, sign, signRecover, derive
Access Flags : [0x0]
ModLength : 2048
Key ref : 1 (0x1)
Native : yes
Path : 3f0050154b01
Auth ID : 01
ID : d5e583c9fc7835231e94369f0f066d5ca5039814
GUID : {d5e583c9-fc78-3523-1e94-369f0f066d5c}

The fire up OpenSSL:
openssl
And then load the pkcs11 engine. (This is what requires you to install the extra engine.)
engine dynamic -pre SO_PATH:/usr/lib64/openssl/engines/engine_pkcs11.so -pre ID:pkcs11 -pre LIST_ADD:1 -pre LOAD -pre MODULE_PATH:/usr/local/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so

If all is successful, you can forge ahead. If not, figure out what's wrong with your compile.
(dynamic) Dynamic engine loading support
[Success]: SO_PATH:/usr/lib/engines/engine_pkcs11.so
[Success]: ID:pkcs11
[Success]: LIST_ADD:1
[Success]: LOAD
[Success]: MODULE_PATH:opensc-pkcs11.so
Loaded: (pkcs11) pkcs11 engine

Using the key ID from above, you can create a certificate signing request without getting the key off the card. Just put "slot_x-id_" in front of the number.

OpenSSL>req -engine pkcs11 -new -key slot_1-id_d5e583c9fc7835231e94369f0f066d5ca5039814 -keyform engine -out mynewrequest.csr

Then sign the CSR with your CA and import the certificate to the card. If you don't know how to sign a CSR, then Google it... Once you have the certificate, get it onto the card:

pkcs15-init --store-certificate larry.crt --auth-id 01 --id d5e583c9fc7835231e94369f0f066d5ca5039814 --format pem

Notice that the private key never leaves the card. (My dream is to get TinyCA working and store the CA key on a smart card....)

Now you're ready to test using the card:

OpenVPN:
Then change your client OpenVPN configuration file to use pkcs11. One catch is that the OepnVPN client supports pkcs11 but doesn't give you any way to input the PIN. Nor does OpenVPN-GUI. Viscosity does, but it's proprietary. OpenVPN-GUI has a modded version that supports it that I have not tested yet. Thus I use Viscosity. You'll need to load your pkcs11 module. In windows, it's c:\windows\system32\opensc-pkcs11.dll.

Once you get OpenVPN working, you can try using the key to access logins via SSH using Putty's smart card version. To get your public key off the card in ssh form, just try:
ssh-keygen -D /usr/lib/opensc-pkcs11.so

You can also configure Apache's httpd to use client certificates for authentication. Just change your /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf to include these two lines:
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/httpd/conf.d/mycafile.pem
where mycafile.pem is your cert authority's public cert.
and then
SSLVerifyClient require
And all your SSL connections will then require client certificates. Apache tends to reset the connection when you don't have a client certificate available.

Firefox has security token support built in. Go to options | encryption | security devices, and load your pkcs11 module. In windows it's c:\windows\system32\opensc-pkcs11.dll. Then you'll be able to choose a client certificate from the card.

When you're done configuring and testing the card, issue the following command to finalize the card:
pkcs15-init --finalize

TrueCrypt supports smart cards, but I have not figured out how to store a keyfile on the card. Yet.

And this assumes OpenVPN, Viscosity, and the cards are all engineered secure.

After getting all the prequisites in, (there are only really two you need to build by hand, iksemel and libSRTP. sox is optional. The rest are RPMs.), I started the ./configure. Success. Then make. Halfway through, the machine shuts down because I'm consuming too many resources. The first time I thought it was a fluke, but after the second time, I gave up.

But I was still intrigued to see if I could do it, so I moved to the Rackspace cloud and set up a CentOS 6 virtual machine with 20 GB of virtual drive and 512 MB of RAM. Again, no uploading a boot ISO. This isn't VMWare. The build went a lot faster when installing required RPMs. On CentOS, sox is available in the repo. On Amazon's AMI box, it was not.

However, FreePBX 2.10 won't install with Asterisk 10. You can install Asterisk 1.8, then install FreePBX, and then upgrade Asterisk to 10. So far, it works. I can't do testing of every feature, but it is easier to test in the cloud than building yet another box in my basement. (With the exception of DAHDI, of course.)

Rackspace is nice and conservative with its default CentOS build. Iptables is left open to everyone for one port -- 22 tcp -- for ssh. It responds to ping, too, but you can fix that. There's no way I was going to open up much more to everyone, like https (which works fine for FreePBX 2.10), or SIP, or RTP ephemeral ports.

How I did that: Use iptables to limit SSH to my own IP addresses, including a backup address or two. Then install OpenVPN. Given that I'm already managing certificates for https and Asterisk it's not a stretch. It's a lot easier if you have your own certificate server rather than using the scripts provided with each component. (Rant: Everyone who needs to configure https, ssl, tls, or OpenVPN on live Internet-connected machines should be required to complete a tutorial on the CONCEPTS of PKI before being allowed get access to CA and certificate creation scripts for live Internet boxes. Both Asterisk and OpenVPN ship with them.)

OpenVPN runs on port 1194 udp. So what's the other open port? 5222 for Gtalk. I just wish Google had a list of its public IPs for me to enter into iptables.

To access the box, I dial in to the OpenVPN with my certificate that has a password-protected encrypted key. Then I connect to the web interface via https. Snom phones connect via OpenVPN with a certificate and cleartext key. For backup and remote logging, the Cloud server also connects back to my basement via OpenVPN. OpenVPN is easier to configure and seems to have better uptime than my IPSec tunnels. I just hope it's as secure as IPSec.

Total cost so far: $5. It's running under a dollar a day, which is fine for a test box for a little while. I'm a little worried that I won't be able to let go after tweaking it out just the way I want it.

Downside: if iptables stops, my box is getting hacked. I'm afraid to ask how much a dedicated firewall (virtual or real) would cost.

Bug I haven't been able to fix yet: sometimes Snom can't connect via TLS or TCP after getting there through OpenSSL. UDP always works. I'm still working to figure out why.

I'd like to do an selinux policy, too, but that's going to take some time.

Update: Video calls seem to be working between extensions between a Nortel 1535 and the Bria softphone. Since the Nortel doesn't support TLS/SRTP, I can't test video encryption yet.

At this point, I started to appreciate PBX-in-a-Flash a little more because that distro does a full ./configure, make, make install for Asterisk and Dahdi. The stock FreePBX distribution doesn't, but it does get things up and running quick.

After getting FreePBX running, I downloaded libsrtp and Asterisk 10. I had the same trouble with libsrtp in the Asterisk ./configure as before, so Google the error and add -fPIC etc. to the Makefile. After a couple of attempts, Asterisk finished configuring and making and installed and started. I could make calls back and forth.

However, when I first added tlsenable=yes and a path to my certs to my sip_general_custom.conf and restarted Asterisk 10, it did nothing for TLS. Asterisk wasn't even listening on port 5061. And AES encryption on an IAX2 trunk back to my production Asterisk box failed with the following error:

WARNING[1248] /usr/src/asterisk-10.0.0/include/asterisk/crypto.h: AES encryption disabled. Install OpenSSL.

OpenSSL was installed. On further investigation, I discovered that the res_crypto module was not loading or loadable.

OpenSSL-devel was not installed. So I went back and did a yum-install openssl-devel and recompiled and reinstalled Asterisk 10. Then TLS worked fine.

For the record, here are the packages I installed for Asterisk 10 on a FreePBX 2.9.0.9 distro. Dahdi and Asterisk-Add-Ons are not covered here.

zlib-devel-1.2.3-3.i386
libxml2-devel-2.6.26-2.1.2.8.el5_5.1.i386
sqlite-devel-3.3.6-5.i386
doxygen-1.4.7-1.1.i386
keyutils-libs-devel-1.2-1.el5.i386
e2fsprogs-devel-1.39-23.el5_5.1.i386
libsepol-devel-1.15.2-3.el5.i386
libselinux-devel-1.33.4-5.5.el5.i386
krb5-devel-1.6.1-36.el5_5.6.i386
openssl-devel-0.9.8e-12.el5_5.7.i386
mysql-devel-5.0.77-4.el5_5.4.i386

Another thing: You can add your SIP parameters (like tlsenable=yes) to the SIP configuration page that's available in FreePBX now, instead of hand-editing /etc/asterisk/sip_general_custom.conf.

Next: An selinux policy for Asterisk?

To get encryption running in Asterisk, take things step by step. Asterisk encryption is really two types of enrcryption: SIP-S, or SIP over TLS for signalling -- traditional PKI using OpenSSL; and SRTP for the voice traffic. Each is configured independently under each extension. Asterisk Encryption is not end-to-end. It is extension-to-Asterisk, and maybe Asterisk-to-Asterisk on trunks. Asterisk encryption is not foolproof, and it will not encrypt calls to the PSTN. It's still vulnerable to MITM attacks with faked certs, and to a compromise of your Asterisk install. Also, just because your connection to Asterisk is encrypted and the lock symbol shows up on your phone doesn't mean the other extension (or trunk) on the other side of Asterisk is also secure.

The key for SRTP is exchanged over the SIP channel, so if SIP's not encrypted, what's the point of bothering with SRTP? If you want to see what you're missing by not using encryption, download Cain from oxid.it and run it while you register the Bria softphone client and make a call from your windows computer. You get hashes of your SIP passwords and recordings of your phone calls, all from a GUI Windows program. If you have a network tap or span port in the right spot, you can intercept every call and signal between your Asterisk server and its SIP endpoints.

To get started, Asterisk 1.8 requires libsrtp. (You can thank Cisco for making it available, too.) You'll need to download, configure, make, make runtest, and make install before you hit ./configure on your Asterisk source. (Yes, recompiling Asterisk is necessary.) Then, when you do ./configure on your Asterisk source, you'll get an error when it finally gets to checking your libsrtp availability. Google the error phrase, and you'll learn what to change in the CFLAGS line of your libsrtp Makefile. Recompile and reinstall libsrtp, then reconfigure Asterisk. Then in your Asterisk source, make menuselect and select libsrtp under resources. Don't forget to make sure your other cool Asterisk features (like gtalk) are still enabled before you save and exit. Then recompile and reinstall Asterisk. There are plenty of tutorials for these steps on the Interwebs.

Once Asterisk is running again, you can start by getting a certificate for TLS. I am not going to do yet another certificate from self-signed CA howto here. There's an excellent one over at madboa. It's nice for Asterisk to now include a CA/Cert script, but you should really understand how SSL works. I know people who send private keys via email.

Another note about certificates: even if all your workstations are in a friendly LAN with the same DNS suffix, use the fully-qualified Domain Name (FQDN) for your Asterisk certificate. Some endpoints (Bria, I'm looking at you) require FQDN and cannot validate the certificate if you're getting to your Asterisk server by a short name. Using IP addresses for the registrar in your endpoints? That won't work either. You'll need the CA cert on some endpoints but not others. (Snom phones like certs in DER format; Asterisk and Aastra like PEM. To copy from PEM to DER, try this:

openssl x509 -in input.crt -inform PEM -out output.crt -outform DER

Once you get your CA and certificate, your sip_general_custom.conf file should have lines as follows. (In FreePBX, sip_general_custom.conf is the one you can hand-edit safely.)

tcpenable=yes ; If you don't have TCP enabled for SIP now, go ahead and enter this and test it.
tlsenable=yes
tlsbindaddr=0.0.0.0
tlsclientmethod=tlsv1
tlscertfile=/etc/asterisk/keys/asterisk.crt ; concatenate the key file to the bottom of the cert file so they're together.
tlscafile=/etc/asterisk/keys/asteriskCA.crt
tlscipher=AES256-SHA:AES128-SHA:RC4-SHA:RC4-MD5;

Some say put "ANY" there for tlscipher. I suggest you want encryption that's strong but compatible with your endpoints. For valid strings, look here: http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/ciphers.html#CIPHER_STRINGS. To see which one your endpoint is using, you'll need to do a network capture via Wireshark. If there's no shared cipher between your endpoint and Asterisk, you'll see something like this in your logs:
/var/log/asterisk/full:[2012-01-03 13:59:30] VERBOSE[29926] tcptls.c: == Problem setting up ssl connection:
error:1408A0C1:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:no shared cipher

Also, you'll need to trust your self-signed CA in Linux. (Seriously, don't set tlsdontverifyserver=yes -- it's just lame.)

If you're on Fedora or CentOS, the folder is /etc/pki/tls/certs.
# ln -s myAsteriskCA.cer `openssl x509 -hash -noout -in myAsteriskCA.cer`.0
then verify:
# openssl verify -CApath /etc/pki/tls/certs /etc/asterisk/keys/myAsterisk.cer
should get you a:
/etc/asterisk/keys/myAsterisk.cer: OK
Once you have a certificate in place, restart Asterisk and see what comes up:
/var/log/asterisk/full:[2012-01-02 23:37:26] VERBOSE[24700] tcptls.c: SSL certificate ok

Then you can try connecting with TLS. In FreePBX, you go to the particular extension you want to test and select TLS Only and reload. Each endpoint is different. Once TLS is successful, you can try setting the extension to use SRTP encryption in FreePBX.

Notes on Phones:

Each phone is different. Bria was easy, so you may want to start with that to see if Asterisk is working correctly. In account settings, domain needs to be a FQDN that matches what you've assigned the certificate. You also need to import the your CA cert into Windows' CA certificate store. For signaling transport, select TLS. For SRTP, select "Make and accept only encrypted calls" for Media Encryption. With any luck, when you hit the apply button, you should see "All accounts are active." While Bria for Windows validates certificates, it's optional on the Bria for iPhone/iPad.

The other software phone, 3CX, has settings for TLS but gets caught in an SSL handshake loop when trying to register, in spite of a shared cipher suite.

For the SNOM 370 to connect via SRTP successfully, I had to set RTP/SAVP to Mandatory. (Identity | RTP in the Snom Menu.) If you have multiple SIP accounts to the same Asterisk server in your SNOM phone, having any one ID configuration incorrect can break them all (Error message "Not acceptable here" whenever you dial). Also set the SRTP Key to 80-bit; 32-bit is the SNOM default, which doesn't work. (This has changed in Asterisk 10: Add option encryption_taglen to set auth taglen only 32 and 80 are supported currently.)

Also, disable RTCP support in SNOM if you don't want Asterisk to crash when it's doing SRTP.

On Aastra 6757iCT I got TLS working, and SRTP for inbound. Unfortunately, when SRTP is active, dialing out doesn't work at all, with "call failed" every time so far. I've gone through most of the DTMF options, inluding SIP, and still no joy. The difference between CA certs and Trusted Certs on the TLS support page is not clear to me. Aastra says to put your CA root & intermediate certs in CA Certs and Trusted Certs on the TLS support menu. For my mode -- persistent TLS -- I have only trusted certificates, a PEM file with concatenated public certs of my Asterisk server and its issuing CA.) Also, you need to manually set all the ports to 5061 for TLS. The others phones switched ports automatically. Relevant lines:

sip local port: 5061
sip local tls port: 5061
sip proxy port: 5061
sip registrar port: 5061
sip outbound proxy port: 5061
sip srtp mode: 0
(SRTP disabled -- so dialing out can work.)
sip transport protocol: 4
sips trusted certificates: asterisk2.pem
sips persistent tls: 1

I'd like to make more progress on the Aastra, but it requires even more reboots than the Snom.

Finally, run Cain again to see if your phones are encrypted for SIP and Voice. Even when SRTP is encrypting voice traffic, you can tell that a call is happening and how log it lasts. If you can't get a tap, you can do a TCP dump to a .cap file on your Asterisk server and then open it with Wireshark. Then you can take a look to see if the data looks encrypted.

Leftover vulnerabilities: This configuration still uses passwords for client authentication. You can use client-side certs if you want. Certificate Authorities are vulnerable. Bria (at least on Windows) uses the Windows Certificate Authorities that come installed. SNOM phones ship with CA certs aboard. (You still have to upload your own certs to the SNOM phone.) SNOM has no mechanisms for a certificate revocation list, so compromised CAs can be used to impersonate your certificates in a MITM attack. Aastra makes you upload any CA certs for trust.

Finally, for the SNOM phones that have the OpenVPN client, using the OpenVPN connection back to your Asterisk server and encryption within the (encrypted) VPN connection should provide some additional level of security.
(Assuming you haven't left your private keys exposed someplace.)

The secure PBX is not connected to the PSTN. And when you say man-in-the-middle attack, think government-in-the-middle. It's gender neutral.

If you pan out, the placemark icons will cover the continental United States. It also drives home the point that if you're flying high enough and your engine dies, you should be able to glide to an airport.

Improvements: Public airports are in blue; private airports are in red. AWOS data is included where applicable. (If airports have an AWOS, it's included. Note that ATIS is not the same as AWOS.)

Code improvements: All output code is Python. The database is still Microsoft SQL, and the API is adodb for Python. Next: Porting output code to Linux (need a new database connection) and keeping back end MS SQL for now. Long-term: cleaning up and uploading data via python into MySQL.

Random Comments on Python: String manipulation in python is the same as in visual basic script, but different. If statements have no end, just an indent and and end of indent.
