<div id="section1" class="doctools_section"><h2><a name="section1">Description</a></h2>
<p>This extension provides TCL script access to secure socket communications
using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. It provides a generic
binding to <a href="https://www.openssl.org/">OpenSSL</a>, utilizing the
<b class="syscmd">Tcl_StackChannel</b> API in TCL 8.4 and higher.
These sockets behave exactly the same as channels created using the built-in
<b class="syscmd">socket</b> command, along with additional options for controlling
the SSL/TLS session.</p>
</div>
<div id="section2" class="doctools_section"><h2><a name="section2">Commands</a></h2>
<p>Typically one would use the <b class="cmd">tls::socket</b> command to create a new encrypted
TCP socket. It is compatible with the native TCL <b class="syscmd">::socket</b> command.
Alternatively for an existing TCP socket, the <b class="cmd">tls::import</b> command can be
used to start TLS on the connection.</p>
<dl class="doctools_definitions">
<dt><a name="1"><b class="cmd">tls::init</b> <span class="opt">?<i class="arg">-option</i>?</span> <span class="opt">?<i class="arg">value</i>?</span> <span class="opt">?<i class="arg">-option value ...</i>?</span></a></dt>
<dd><p>Optional function to set the default options used by <b class="cmd">tls::socket</b>. If you
call <b class="cmd">tls::import</b> directly, this command has no effect. This command
supports all of the same options as the <b class="cmd">tls::socket</b> command, though you
should limit your options to only TLS related ones.</p></dd>
<dt><a name="2"><b class="cmd">tls::socket</b> <span class="opt">?<i class="arg">-option</i>?</span> <span class="opt">?<i class="arg">value</i>?</span> <span class="opt">?<i class="arg">-option value ...</i>?</span> <i class="arg">host</i> <i class="arg">port</i></a></dt>
<dd><p>This is a helper function that utilizes the underlying commands <b class="syscmd">socket</b>
and <b class="cmd">tls::import</b> to create the connection. It behaves the same as the
native TCL <b class="syscmd">socket</b> command, but also supports the <b class="cmd">tls:import</b>
command options with one additional option. It returns the channel handle id
for the new socket.</p>
<dl class="doctools_options">
<dt><b class="option">-autoservername</b> <i class="arg">bool</i></dt>
<dd><p>If <b class="const">true</b>, automatically set the <b class="option">-servername</b> argument to the

<dd><p>Same as previous, but instead creates a server socket for clients to connect to
just like the Tcl <b class="syscmd">socket -server</b> command. It returns the channel
handle id for the new socket.</p></dd>

parameters for SSL handshake. Valid options are:</p>
<dl class="doctools_options">
<dt><b class="option">-alpn</b> <i class="arg">list</i></dt>
<dd><p>List of protocols to offer during Application-Layer Protocol Negotiation

String is a colon &quot;<b class="const">:</b>&quot; separated list of ciphers.
Ciphers can be combined using the &quot;<b class="const">+</b>&quot; character.
Prefixes can be used to permanently remove &quot;<b class="const">!</b>&quot;, delete &quot;<b class="const">-</b>&quot;, or
move to the end &quot;<b class="const">+</b>&quot; a specified cipher.
Keywords <b class="const">@STRENGTH</b> (sort by algorithm key length),
<b class="const">@SECLEVEL=</b><em>n</em> (set security level to n), and

specified <i class="arg">channel</i>, and therefore share config, callbacks, etc.</p></dd>
<dt><b class="option">-password</b> <i class="arg">callback</i></dt>
<dd><p>Specifies the callback command to invoke when OpenSSL needs to obtain a
password. This is typically used to unlock the private key of a certificate.
The callback should return a password string. See <span class="sectref"><a href="#section4">Callback Options</a></span>

<dd><p>Require a valid certificate from peer during the SSL handshake. If this is set to
true, then <b class="option">-request</b> must also be set to true and a either <b class="option">-cadir</b>,
<b class="option">-cafile</b>, <b class="option">-castore</b>, or a platform default must be provided in order to
validate against. The default is <b class="const">false</b> since not all platforms have
certificates to validate against in a form compatible with OpenSSL.

<dl class="doctools_options">
<dt><b class="option">-cadir</b> <i class="arg">directory</i></dt>
<dd><p>Specifies the directory where the Certificate Authority (CA) certificates are
stored. The default is platform specific, but is usually &quot;<b class="file">/etc/ssl/certs</b>&quot; on

<dt><b class="option">-cafile</b> <i class="arg">filename</i></dt>

all platforms have certificates to validate against in a form compatible with
OpenSSL. See <span class="sectref"><a href="#section3">Certificate Validation</a></span> for more details.</p></dd>
</dl>
</div>
<div id="subsection2" class="doctools_subsection"><h3><a name="subsection2">When are command line options needed?</a></h3>
<p>By default, a client TLS connection does <em>NOT</em> validate the server certificate
chain. This limitation is due to the lack of a common cross platform
database of Certificate Authority (CA) provided certificates to validate
against. Many Linux systems natively support OpenSSL and thus have these
certificates installed as part of the OS, but MacOS and Windows do not. In
order to use the <b class="option">-require</b> option, one of the following must be true:</p>
<ul class="doctools_itemized">
<li><p>On Linux and Unix systems with OpenSSL already installed, if the CA
certificates are stored in the standard locations, or if the <b class="variable">SSL_CERT_DIR</b>
or <b class="variable">SSL_CERT_FILE</b> environment variables are set, then <b class="option">-cadir</b>,
<b class="option">-cadir</b>, and <b class="option">-castore</b> aren't needed.</p></li>
<li><p>If OpenSSL is not installed in the default location, or when using Mac OS
or Windows and OpenSSL is installed, the <b class="variable">SSL_CERT_DIR</b> and/or 
<b class="variable">SSL_CERT_FILE</b> environment variables or the one of the <b class="option">-cadir</b>,
<b class="option">-cadir</b>, or <b class="option">-castore</b> options must be defined.</p></li>
<li><p>On Windows, starting in OpenSSL 3.2, it is now possible to access the
built-in Windows Certificate Store from OpenSSL. This can be achieved by
setting the <b class="option">-castore</b> option to &quot;<b class="const">org.openssl.winstore://</b>&quot;.</p></li>
<li><p>If OpenSSL is not installed, the CA certificates must be downloaded and
installed with the user software. The CURL team makes them available at
<a href="https://curl.se/docs/caextract.html">CA certificates extracted
from Mozilla</a> in the &quot;<b class="file">cacert.pem</b>&quot; file. You must then either set the
<b class="variable">SSL_CERT_DIR</b> and/or <b class="variable">SSL_CERT_FILE</b> environment variables or the
<b class="option">-cadir</b> or <b class="option">-cafile</b> options to the CA cert file's install
location. It is your responsibility to keep this file up to date.</p></li>

callback.</p></dd>
<dt><b class="option">verify</b> <i class="arg">channelId depth cert status error</i></dt>
<dd><p>This form of callback is invoked by OpenSSL when a new certificate is received
from the peer. It allows the client to check the certificate verification

<p>Reference implementations of these callbacks are provided in &quot;<b class="file">tls.tcl</b>&quot;
as <b class="cmd">tls::callback</b>, <b class="cmd">tls::password</b>, and <b class="cmd">tls::validate_command</b>
respectively. Note that these are only <em>sample</em> implementations. In a more
realistic deployment you would specify your own callback scripts on each TLS
channel using the <b class="option">-command</b>, <b class="option">-password</b>, and
<b class="option">-validate_command</b> options.</p>
<p>The default behavior when the <b class="option">-command</b> and <b class="option">-validate_command</b>
options are not specified, is for TclTLS to process the associated library
callbacks internally. The default behavior when the <b class="option">-password</b> option
is not specified is for TclTLS to process the associated library callbacks by
attempting to call <b class="cmd">tls::password</b>. The difference between these two
behaviors is a consequence of maintaining compatibility with earlier
implementations.</p>
<p><em>The use of the reference callbacks <b class="cmd">tls::callback</b>, <b class="cmd">tls::password</b>,
and <b class="cmd">tls::validate_command</b> is not recommended. They may be removed from future releases.</em></p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="section5" class="doctools_section"><h2><a name="section5">Debug</a></h2>
<p>For most debugging needs, the <b class="option">-callback</b> option can be used to provide
sufficient insight and information on the TLS handshake and progress. If
further troubleshooting insight is needed, the compile time option
<b class="option">--enable-debug</b> can be used to get detailed execution flow status.</p>
<p>TLS key logging can be enabled by setting the environment variable
<b class="variable">SSLKEYLOGFILE</b> to the name of the file to log to. Then whenever TLS key
material is generated or received it will be logged to the file. This is useful
for logging key data for network logging tools to use to decrypt the data.</p>
<p>The <b class="variable">tls::debug</b> variable provides some additional control over these
reference callbacks. Its value is zero by default. Higher values produce more
diagnostic output, and will also force the verify method in <b class="cmd">tls::callback</b>
to accept the certificate, even when it is invalid if the
<b class="option">-validatecommand</b> option is set to <b class="cmd">tls::validate_command</b>.</p>
<p><em>The use of the variable <b class="variable">tls::debug</b> is not recommended.
It may be removed from future releases.</em></p>
