GHSA-gr79-9v6v-gc9r: Dex discarding TLSconfig and always serves deprecated TLS 1.0/1.1 and insecure ciphers

Summary

Dex 2.37.0 is serving HTTPS with insecure TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1.

Details

While working on https://github.com/dexidp/dex/issues/2848 and implementing configurable TLS support, I noticed my changes did not have any effect in TLS config, so I started investigating.

https://github.com/dexidp/dex/blob/70d7a2c7c1bb2646b1a540e49616cbc39622fb83/cmd/dex/serve.go#L425 is seemingly setting TLS 1.2 as minimum version, but the whole tlsConfig is ignored after “TLS cert reloader” was introduced in https://github.com/dexidp/dex/pull/2964. Configured cipher suites are not respected either, as seen on the output.

PoC

Build Dex, generate certs with gencert.sh, modify config.dev.yaml to run on https, using generated certs.

issuer: http://127.0.0.1:5556/dex

storage:
  type: sqlite3
  config:
    file: dex.db

web:
  https: 127.0.0.1:5556
  tlsCert: examples/k8s/ssl/cert.pem
  tlsKey: examples/k8s/ssl/key.pem

<rest as default>

Run dex bin/dex serve config.dev.yaml.

Install sslyze, easy to use SSL connection analyzer:

pip3 install sslyze
sslyze 127.0.0.1:5556

In Dex 2.37.0, TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 are enabled in addition to expected TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3.

Impact

TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 connections can be decrypted by the attacker, and hence decrypt the traffic to Dex.
