Notes: idpy dev call, 26 January 2021

Attendees: Stephen Schwichtenberg, Ivan, Christos, John P, Heather, Johan, Scott Regrets: Roland Notes: 0 - Agenda bash 1 - Security Vulnerability - review looking for feedback on how we handled the announcements. Ivan made a private incident-response team to review the patches, but not sure that many people tested. eduTeams did some testing after about a week and found a few issues coming from the new patches. The new code had test cases, but they can't account for everything. We need better community testing. We made the CVEs public on Jan 20, created a new release for pySAML2, and sent out an announcement. Also updated Satosa, including a new docker image. We also have a new web page: https://idpy.org/security/. Feedback • We announced the new release would be available before we actually had the release. That put some time strain on things that rushed the testing and development. We underestimated the complexity, so suggest we needed to have the testing done first, before we make an announcement. There were also requests for early access; how do we answer questions like that? Who gets early access, and who doesn't? Giving a heads' up to the ops people is good, but better to have the patches ready first. • The clients who had been keeping themselves up to date had the least issues in handling the update. The ones that are still on old versions had quite a few more challenges (custom microservices no longer worked, configs had to change, etc). Standard devops best practice makes responding to this kind of issue much easier. • In terms of curating a list of early testers, the people who show up and contribute to the community are the ones that should get premium access. 2 - GitHub review a.

Vulnerabilities affecting pySAML2 and forthcoming release

by ivan.kanak＠gmail.com

Dear users of IdentityPython, this is a heads-up about two vulnerabilities affecting pySAML2. Software that uses pySAML2 is indirectly affected, too (ie, SATOSA). The issues were reported to the IdentityPython incident-response mailing list and we have been working on a mitigation. A new version of pySAML2 that includes the fixes will be released on Wednesday 20th of January between 13:00 CET and 17:00 CET. We urge everyone to be prepared to update their setup to the latest version. Kind regards, Ivan Kanakarakis on behalf of the incident-response team

Notes: idpy dev call, 12 January 2020

by hlflanagan＠sphericalcowgroup.com

Attendees John, Scott, Giuseppe, Ivan, Hannah, Ori, Johan, Chris 0 - Agenda bash 1 - Administrivia Suggestion made that announcements of security issues should include some indication of severity and whether there is indication these have been found 'in the wild'. Also some additional guidance on what to expect with regards to remediation (what are deployers expected to do, what level of effort can people expect to encounter) would be helpful. The team will put together an FAQ on how security vulnerabilities are handled and include a log of known vulnerabilities (once those vulnerabilities and their remediations are public). 2 - GitHub review a. OIDC - https://github.com/IdentityPython (JWTConnect-Python-OidcRP, JWTConnect-Python-CryptoJWT, etc) No update b. Satosa - https://github.com/IdentityPython/SATOSA c. pySAML2 - https://github.com/IdentityPython/pysaml2 Nothing major through the holiday, only some minor fixes for the tests. Ivan wants to reorganize the code a bit to clearly separate the operations that work on the XML document representation from those that work on an object representation of the XML data. d. pyFF - https://github.com/IdentityPython/pyFF No update 3 - Normalizing idpy projects (see email from Ivan, "Subject: [idpy-discuss] Normalizing across all projects”, 10 November 2020) a. Extending the invitation to djangosaml2 - status? Will add to the agenda for our next call 4 - AOB Thanks! Heather
