[SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Hi all,

I updated my system today, and since then eduroam stopped working. I enabled TLS debugging for iwd, which shows me a bad_certificate error in journalctl. The description is "Peer certchain verification failed consistency check or against local CA certs: Linking certificate 1 / 4 failed, 1 / 4 matched a trusted certificate, root not verified.". I then manually checked the ca.pem that I obtained from the eduroam installer, but 'openssl verify -show_chain ca.pem' succeeds.

During the update, I saw that iwd was updated from 2.12-1 to 2.13-1, but downgrading this did not solve the issue. OpenSSL was not upgraded and was already at 3.2.0-1.

Any ideas where/how to dig further into this issue?

Cheers

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Same problem here. Using kernel 6.6.12-1-lts it still works.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Hi,

Same problem here but only with last kernel :
* iwd + eduroam (PEAP MSCHAPv2) + linux 6.7.0 → Failed
* iwd + eduroam (PEAP MSCHAPv2) + linux-lts 6.6.12 → Success

I also try to downgrade iwd, but same errors, so for me, the problem is on the kernel. @rochus, could you please test with an LTS kernel ?

My logs for linux 6.7.0 :

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Thanks for the updates. I'll test an LTS kernel as soon as possible. I traced the "Peer certchain verification failed" error message to extra/ell. ell's build date predates the 6.7 kernel. Does it need to be recompiled against the latest kernel?

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Good point, my error "Can't l_key_get_info for peer public key" is coming from extra/ell too, on file ell/tls.c

I recompiled/install ell as you suggest. I'll see tomorrow

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Can confirm both: kernel 6.6.12-lts solves the issue, while recompiling ell against a 6.7 kernel does not.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

We haven't narrowed down where precisely the bug is coming from, so I'm not sure if reporting it upstream anywhere already helps. I'll try to find some time on the weekend to dig further into it, but cannot promise anything yet.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

I was not thinking about reporting upstream, just on Arch for maintainers. I think they could help us to investigate.

I tried few hack around ell/tls.c, but my C knowledge are really poor…

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

I'd first and foremost check if you've all the same kind of HW to see whether this is a driver issue since nothing changed about ell.

No problems with WPA2 Personal (WPA2-PSK), only with WPA2 Entreprise (PEAP+MSCHAPv2).

Same here regarding regular wifi with WPA2. So far I encountered the issue only when using eduroam (i.e. PEAP+MSCHAPV2). I don't have much time this weekend to dig any further, unfortunately.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

yup. I had a brief look into iwlwifi's commit history on Friday. There were a few changes to it between 6.6 and 6.7, but nothing that looks like an obvious smoking gun.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Excellent find, thanks! This looks like it could be is the culprit. Specifically, the removal of SHA1 from the kernel leads to the rejection of one of the certificates in the certificate chain. I just evaluated this with the kernel that loqs provided in that thread.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

You could use NetworkManager to configure your network connections. In contrast to iwd, it does not rely on the kernel's crypto stack and therefore is not affected by the kernel having SHA1 removed. Alternatively, you could try to approach the people who are responsible/manage your network and ask if they could renew the certificate chain but without any cert being signed using SHA1.

Re: [SOLVED] iwd, eduroam, bad_certificate error

Just to expand on that, you need to use NetworkManager together with wpa_supplicant because if you use it to manage iwd it will still use the kernel crypto.

I'm experiencing this very issue on Fedora 39 Silverblue, and I've been in touch with the iwd developers on the mailing list. They told me to report it upstream to the distribution maintainers, which I have done. My knowledge of certificates and crypto in general is very limited, but from what I've seen none of the certificates that my university eduroam uses are signed with SHA-1. It makes me wonder whether the update broke more than just SHA-1.
