[issue42982] Update suggested number of iterations for pbkdf2_hmac()
Alex Gaynor added the comment: Sticking with 100k is not scientific though ;-) Empiricism is science! I'm probably the person responsible for Django's process, which is to increase by some % (10% or 20% IIRC) every release. As you point out, the exact value one should use is a function of context, which we don't have as documentation authors. However, what we can do is try to select a value that's most likely to be practical for many users and will in-turn protect their users data most. 100k isn't that value, and taking inspiration from places that have had their values tested by many users is intuitive to me. -- nosy: +alex ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue42982> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Alex Gaynor added the comment: For the use case of "I want to trust this CA, but I don't want to trust any of it's sub CAs" I think there's a simpler solution than expanding our API: Create your own cross-sign of the root you want, and add a pathLenConstraint: 0 to the basicConstraints extension. By create a cross-sign, I mean a new certificate with the same subject/SPKI/SKI/other-extensions, but instead of being self-signed, sign it under some random private key you throw away.

[issue29810] Rename ssl.Purpose.{CLIENT,SERVER}_AUTH
New submission from Alex Gaynor:
The names are super misleading. First, they're written in a way that's the
opposite of how people think about these things (CLIENT_AUTH -> server socket;
SERVER_AUTH -> client socket). Second, they're misleading, you can have TLS
which is *mutually* authenticated. Third, CLIENT_AUTH is very frequently used
for a server socket where the client isn't authenticated (at the TLS layer) at
all!
A simple fix would be to add: Purpose.{CLIENT,SERVER}_SOCKET and alias the old
names to those values.

Alex Gaynor added the comment: This doesn't look correct to me. Despite what the Linux maintainers insist, it's a _bug_ that /dev/urandom will return immediately if the system's entropy pool has never been seeded; one of the whole points of the getrandom syscall is that it has the correct behavior (which is the same behavior as BSDs).

[issue25515] Always use os.urandom for generating uuid4s
New submission from Alex Gaynor: Right now uuid4 can be implemented one of 3 ways: - If there's a libuuid (and it's not OS X's) it uses that. - Fallback to os.urandom - If that raises an exception, fall back to the random module I propose to simplify this to _just_ use os.urandom always. Reasons: - Its security properties are more obviously correct. (There's a large comment in uuid.py about how libuuid doees the wrong thing with fork on OS X, who knows if it's correct on other platforms) - It's simpler. - It's faster: a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "_buffer = ctypes.create_string_buffer(16); uuid._uuid_generate_random(_buffer); bytes(_buffer.raw)" 10 loops, best of 3: 10 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "_buffer = ctypes.create_string_buffer(16); uuid._uuid_generate_random(_buffer); bytes(_buffer.raw)" 10 loops, best of 3: 10.3 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "_buffer = ctypes.create_string_buffer(16); uuid._uuid_generate_random(_buffer); bytes(_buffer.raw)" 10 loops, best of 3: 9.99 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "_buffer = ctypes.create_string_buffer(16); uuid._uuid_generate_random(_buffer); bytes(_buffer.raw)" 10 loops, best of 3: 10.2 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "_buffer = ctypes.create_string_buffer(16); uuid._uuid_generate_random(_buffer); bytes(_buffer.raw)" 10 loops, best of 3: 10.2 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ a_gaynor@miranda:~$ a_gaynor@miranda:~$ a_gaynor@miranda:~$ a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "os.urandom(16)" 10 loops, best of 3: 8.94 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "os.urandom(16)" 10 loops, best of 3: 8.92 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "os.urandom(16)" 10 loops, best of 3: 8.97 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "os.urandom(16)" 10 loops, best of 3: 8.93 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python -mtimeit -s "import uuid; import os; import ctypes" "os.urandom(16)" 10 loops, best of 3: 8.94 usec per loop a_gaynor@miranda:~$ a_gaynor@miranda:~$ a_gaynor@miranda:~$ python --version Python 2.7.3 -- components: Library (Lib) files: uuid.diff keywords: needs review, patch messages: 253697 nosy: alex, dstufft priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Always use os.urandom for generating uuid4s versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.5, Python 3.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file40899/uuid.diff ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue25515> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
