<h3>Summary</h3>
<p>This module provides SSL v2/v3 and TLS v1 support for the Apache
HTTP Server. It was contributed by Ralf S. Engeschall based on his
mod_ssl project and originally derived from work by Ben Laurie.</p>
<p>This module relies on <a href="http://www.openssl.org/">OpenSSL</a>
to provide the cryptography engine.</p>
<p>Further details, discussion, and examples are provided in the
<a href="../ssl/">SSL documentation</a>.</p>

variables to the SSI and CGI namespace. The generated variables are listed in
the table below. For backward compatibility the information can
be made available under different names, too. Look in the <a href="../ssl/ssl_compat.html">Compatibility</a> chapter for details on the

<p><em>x509</em> specifies a component of an X.509 DN; one of
<code>C,ST,L,O,OU,CN,T,I,G,S,D,UID,Email</code>. In Apache 2.1 and
later, <em>x509</em> may also include a numeric <code>_n</code>
suffix. If the DN in question contains multiple attributes of the
same name, this suffix is used as an index to select a particular
attribute. For example, where the server certificate subject DN
included two OU fields, <code>SSL_SERVER_S_DN_OU_0</code> and
<code>SSL_SERVER_S_DN_OU_1</code> could be used to reference each.</p>
<p><code>SSL_CLIENT_V_REMAIN</code> is only available in version 2.1
and later.</p>

<p>When <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> is built into Apache or at least

provided by any module, especially those provided by mod_ssl which can
you find in the above table.</p>
<p>
For backward compatibility there is additionally a special
``<code>%{</code><em>name</em><code>}c</code>'' cryptography format function
provided. Information about this function is provided in the <a href="../ssl/ssl_compat.html">Compatibility</a> chapter.</p>

This directive sets the <em>all-in-one</em> file where you can assemble the
Certificates of Certification Authorities (CA) whose <em>clients</em> you deal
with. These are used for Client Authentication. Such a file is simply the
concatenation of the various PEM-encoded Certificate files, in order of
preference. This can be used alternatively and/or additionally to
<code class="directive"><a href="#sslcacertificatepath">SSLCACertificatePath</a></code>.</p>

<p>
This directive sets the directory where you keep the Certificates of
Certification Authorities (CAs) whose clients you deal with. These are used to
verify the client certificate on Client Authentication.</p>
<p>
The files in this directory have to be PEM-encoded and are accessed through
hash filenames. So usually you can't just place the Certificate files
there: you also have to create symbolic links named
<em>hash-value</em><code>.N</code>. And you should always make sure this directory
contains the appropriate symbolic links. Use the <code>Makefile</code> which
comes with mod_ssl to accomplish this task.</p>
<div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code>
SSLCACertificatePath /usr/local/apache2/conf/ssl.crt/
</code></p></div>

<p>When a client certificate is requested by mod_ssl, a list of
<em>acceptable Certificate Authority names</em> is sent to the client
in the SSL handshake. These CA names can be used by the client to
select an appropriate client certificate out of those it has
available.</p>
<p>If neither of the directives <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcadnrequestpath">SSLCADNRequestPath</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcadnrequestfile">SSLCADNRequestFile</a></code> are given, then the

<p>In some circumstances, it is useful to be able to send a set of

the client certificate - for example, if the client certificates are
signed by intermediate CAs. In such cases, <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcadnrequestpath">SSLCADNRequestPath</a></code> and/or <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcadnrequestfile">SSLCADNRequestFile</a></code> can be used; the

This directive sets the optional <em>all-in-one</em> file where you can
assemble the certificates of Certification Authorities (CA) which form the
certificate chain of the server certificate. This starts with the issuing CA
certificate of of the server certificate and can range up to the root CA
certificate. Such a file is simply the concatenation of the various
PEM-encoded CA Certificate files, usually in certificate chain order.</p>
<p>
This should be used alternatively and/or additionally to <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcacertificatepath">SSLCACertificatePath</a></code> for explicitly
constructing the server certificate chain which is sent to the browser
in addition to the server certificate. It is especially useful to
avoid conflicts with CA certificates when using client
authentication. Because although placing a CA certificate of the
server certificate chain into <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcacertificatepath">SSLCACertificatePath</a></code> has the same effect
for the certificate chain construction, it has the side-effect that
client certificates issued by this same CA certificate are also
accepted on client authentication. That's usually not one expect.</p>
<p>
But be careful: Providing the certificate chain works only if you are using a
<em>single</em> (either RSA <em>or</em> DSA) based server certificate. If you are
using a coupled RSA+DSA certificate pair, this will work only if actually both
certificates use the <em>same</em> certificate chain. Else the browsers will be
confused in this situation.</p>

This complex directive uses a colon-separated <em>cipher-spec</em> string
consisting of OpenSSL cipher specifications to configure the Cipher Suite the
client is permitted to negotiate in the SSL handshake phase. Notice that this
directive can be used both in per-server and per-directory context. In
per-server context it applies to the standard SSL handshake when a connection
is established. In per-directory context it forces a SSL renegotation with the
reconfigured Cipher Suite after the HTTP request was read but before the HTTP
response is sent.</p>
<p>
An SSL cipher specification in <em>cipher-spec</em> is composed of 4 major
attributes plus a few extra minor ones:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>Key Exchange Algorithm</em>:<br />
RSA or Diffie-Hellman variants.
</li>
<li><em>Authentication Algorithm</em>:<br />
RSA, Diffie-Hellman, DSS or none.
</li>
<li><em>Cipher/Encryption Algorithm</em>:<br />
DES, Triple-DES, RC4, RC2, IDEA or none.
</li>
<li><em>MAC Digest Algorithm</em>:<br />
MD5, SHA or SHA1.
</li>
</ul>
<p>An SSL cipher can also be an export cipher and is either a SSLv2 or SSLv3/TLSv1
cipher (here TLSv1 is equivalent to SSLv3). To specify which ciphers to use,
one can either specify all the Ciphers, one at a time, or use aliases to
specify the preference and order for the ciphers (see <a href="#table1">Table
1</a>).</p>

<p>
Now where this becomes interesting is that these can be put together
to specify the order and ciphers you wish to use. To speed this up
there are also aliases (<code>SSLv2, SSLv3, TLSv1, EXP, LOW, MEDIUM,
HIGH</code>) for certain groups of ciphers. These tags can be joined
together with prefixes to form the <em>cipher-spec</em>. Available
prefixes are:</p>
<ul>
<li>none: add cipher to list</li>
<li><code>+</code>: add ciphers to list and pull them to current location in list</li>
<li><code>-</code>: remove cipher from list (can be added later again)</li>
<li><code>!</code>: kill cipher from list completely (can <strong>not</strong> be added later again)</li>
</ul>
<p>A simpler way to look at all of this is to use the ``<code>openssl ciphers
-v</code>'' command which provides a nice way to successively create the
correct <em>cipher-spec</em> string. The default <em>cipher-spec</em> string
is ``<code>ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP</code>'' which
means the following: first, remove from consideration any ciphers that do not
authenticate, i.e. for SSL only the Anonymous Diffie-Hellman ciphers. Next,
use ciphers using RC4 and RSA. Next include the high, medium and then the low
security ciphers. Finally <em>pull</em> all SSLv2 and export ciphers to the
end of the list.</p>

<p>
This configures the SSL engine's semaphore (aka. lock) which is used for mutual
exclusion of operations which have to be done in a synchronized way between the
pre-forked Apache server processes. This directive can only be used in the
global server context because it's only useful to have one global mutex.
This directive is designed to closely match the
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#acceptmutex">AcceptMutex</a></code> directive.</p>
<p>
The following Mutex <em>types</em> are available:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>none | no</code>
<p>
This is the default where no Mutex is used at all. Use it at your own
risk. But because currently the Mutex is mainly used for synchronizing
write access to the SSL Session Cache you can live without it as long
as you accept a sometimes garbled Session Cache. So it's not recommended
to leave this the default. Instead configure a real Mutex.</p></li>
<li><code>posixsem</code>
<p>
This is an elegant Mutex variant where a Posix Semaphore is used when possible.
It is only available when the underlying platform
and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports it.</p></li>
<li><code>sysvsem</code>
<p>
This is a somewhat elegant Mutex variant where a SystemV IPC Semaphore is used when
possible. It is possible to "leak" SysV semaphores if processes crash before
the semaphore is removed. It is only available when the underlying platform
and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports it.</p></li>
<li><code>sem</code>
<p>
This directive tells the SSL Module to pick the "best" semaphore implementation
available to it, choosing between Posix and SystemV IPC, in that order. It is only
available when the underlying platform and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports at least one of the 2.</p></li>
<li><code>pthread</code>
<p>
This directive tells the SSL Module to use Posix thread mutexes. It is only available
if the underlying platform and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports it.</p></li>
<li><code>fcntl:/path/to/mutex</code>
<p>
This is a portable Mutex variant where a physical (lock-)file and the <code>fcntl()</code>
fucntion are used as the Mutex.
Always use a local disk filesystem for <code>/path/to/mutex</code> and never a file
residing on a NFS- or AFS-filesystem. It is only available when the underlying platform
and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports it. Note: Internally, the Process ID (PID) of the
Apache parent process is automatically appended to
<code>/path/to/mutex</code> to make it unique, so you don't have to worry
about conflicts yourself. Notice that this type of mutex is not available
under the Win32 environment. There you <em>have</em> to use the semaphore
mutex.</p></li>
<li><code>flock:/path/to/mutex</code>
<p>
This is similar to the <code>fcntl:/path/to/mutex</code> method with the
exception that the <code>flock()</code> function is used to provide file
locking. It is only available when the underlying platform
and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports it.</p></li>
<li><code>file:/path/to/mutex</code>
<p>
This directive tells the SSL Module to pick the "best" file locking implementation
available to it, choosing between <code>fcntl</code> and <code>flock</code>,
in that order. It is only available when the underlying platform and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> supports
at least one of the 2.</p></li>
<li><code>default | yes</code>
<p>
This directive tells the SSL Module to pick the default locking implementation
as determined by the platform and <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a>.</p></li>

<p>
This directive can be used to control various run-time options on a
per-directory basis. Normally, if multiple <code>SSLOptions</code>
could apply to a directory, then the most specific one is taken
completely; the options are not merged. However if <em>all</em> the
options on the <code>SSLOptions</code> directive are preceded by a
plus (<code>+</code>) or minus (<code>-</code>) symbol, the options
are merged. Any options preceded by a <code>+</code> are added to the
options currently in force, and any options preceded by a
<code>-</code> are removed from the options currently in force.</p>
<p>
The available <em>option</em>s are:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>StdEnvVars</code>
<p>
When this option is enabled, the standard set of SSL related CGI/SSI
environment variables are created. This per default is disabled for
performance reasons, because the information extraction step is a
rather expensive operation. So one usually enables this option for
CGI and SSI requests only.</p>
</li>
<li><code>CompatEnvVars</code>
<p>
When this option is enabled, additional CGI/SSI environment variables are
created for backward compatibility to other Apache SSL solutions. Look in
the <a href="../ssl/ssl_compat.html">Compatibility</a> chapter for details
on the particular variables generated.</p>
</li>
<li><code>ExportCertData</code>
<p>
When this option is enabled, additional CGI/SSI environment variables are
created: <code>SSL_SERVER_CERT</code>, <code>SSL_CLIENT_CERT</code> and
<code>SSL_CLIENT_CERT_CHAIN_</code><em>n</em> (with <em>n</em> = 0,1,2,..).
These contain the PEM-encoded X.509 Certificates of server and client for
the current HTTPS connection and can be used by CGI scripts for deeper
Certificate checking. Additionally all other certificates of the client
certificate chain are provided, too. This bloats up the environment a
little bit which is why you have to use this option to enable it on
demand.</p>
</li>
<li><code>FakeBasicAuth</code>
<p>
When this option is enabled, the Subject Distinguished Name (DN) of the
Client X509 Certificate is translated into a HTTP Basic Authorization
username. This means that the standard Apache authentication methods can
be used for access control. The user name is just the Subject of the
Client's X509 Certificate (can be determined by running OpenSSL's
<code>openssl x509</code> command: <code>openssl x509 -noout -subject -in
</code><em>certificate</em><code>.crt</code>). Note that no password is
obtained from the user. Every entry in the user file needs this password:
``<code>xxj31ZMTZzkVA</code>'', which is the DES-encrypted version of the
word `<code>password</code>''. Those who live under MD5-based encryption
(for instance under FreeBSD or BSD/OS, etc.) should use the following MD5
hash of the same word: ``<code>$1$OXLyS...$Owx8s2/m9/gfkcRVXzgoE/</code>''.</p>
</li>
<li><code>StrictRequire</code>
<p>
This <em>forces</em> forbidden access when <code>SSLRequireSSL</code> or
<code>SSLRequire</code> successfully decided that access should be
forbidden. Usually the default is that in the case where a ``<code>Satisfy
any</code>'' directive is used, and other access restrictions are passed,
denial of access due to <code>SSLRequireSSL</code> or
<code>SSLRequire</code> is overridden (because that's how the Apache
<code>Satisfy</code> mechanism should work.) But for strict access restriction
you can use <code>SSLRequireSSL</code> and/or <code>SSLRequire</code> in
combination with an ``<code>SSLOptions +StrictRequire</code>''. Then an
additional ``<code>Satisfy Any</code>'' has no chance once mod_ssl has
decided to deny access.</p>
</li>
<li><code>OptRenegotiate</code>
<p>
This enables optimized SSL connection renegotiation handling when SSL
directives are used in per-directory context. By default a strict
scheme is enabled where <em>every</em> per-directory reconfiguration of
SSL parameters causes a <em>full</em> SSL renegotiation handshake. When this
option is used mod_ssl tries to avoid unnecessary handshakes by doing more
granular (but still safe) parameter checks. Nevertheless these granular
checks sometimes maybe not what the user expects, so enable this on a
per-directory basis only, please.</p>

<p>
When Apache starts up it has to read the various Certificate (see
<code class="directive"><a href="#sslcertificatefile">SSLCertificateFile</a></code>) and
Private Key (see <code class="directive"><a href="#sslcertificatekeyfile">SSLCertificateKeyFile</a></code>) files of the
SSL-enabled virtual servers. Because for security reasons the Private
Key files are usually encrypted, mod_ssl needs to query the
administrator for a Pass Phrase in order to decrypt those files. This
query can be done in two ways which can be configured by
<em>type</em>:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>builtin</code>
<p>
This is the default where an interactive terminal dialog occurs at startup
time just before Apache detaches from the terminal. Here the administrator
has to manually enter the Pass Phrase for each encrypted Private Key file.
Because a lot of SSL-enabled virtual hosts can be configured, the
following reuse-scheme is used to minimize the dialog: When a Private Key
file is encrypted, all known Pass Phrases (at the beginning there are
none, of course) are tried. If one of those known Pass Phrases succeeds no
dialog pops up for this particular Private Key file. If none succeeded,
another Pass Phrase is queried on the terminal and remembered for the next
round (where it perhaps can be reused).</p>
<p>
This scheme allows mod_ssl to be maximally flexible (because for N encrypted
Private Key files you <em>can</em> use N different Pass Phrases - but then
you have to enter all of them, of course) while minimizing the terminal
dialog (i.e. when you use a single Pass Phrase for all N Private Key files
this Pass Phrase is queried only once).</p></li>
<li><code>|/path/to/program [args...]</code>
<p>This mode allows an external program to be used which acts as a
pipe to a particular input device; the program is sent the standard
prompt text used for the <code>builtin</code> mode on
<code>stdin</code>, and is expected to write password strings on
<code>stdout</code>. If several passwords are needed (or an
incorrect password is entered), additional prompt text will be
written subsequent to the first password being returned, and more
passwords must then be written back.</p></li>
<li><code>exec:/path/to/program</code>
<p>
Here an external program is configured which is called at startup for each
encrypted Private Key file. It is called with two arguments (the first is
of the form ``<code>servername:portnumber</code>'', the second is either
``<code>RSA</code>'' or ``<code>DSA</code>''), which indicate for which
server and algorithm it has to print the corresponding Pass Phrase to
<code>stdout</code>. The intent is that this external program first runs
security checks to make sure that the system is not compromised by an
attacker, and only when these checks were passed successfully it provides
the Pass Phrase.</p>
<p>
Both these security checks, and the way the Pass Phrase is determined, can
be as complex as you like. Mod_ssl just defines the interface: an
executable program which provides the Pass Phrase on <code>stdout</code>.
Nothing more or less! So, if you're really paranoid about security, here
is your interface. Anything else has to be left as an exercise to the
administrator, because local security requirements are so different.</p>
<p>
The reuse-algorithm above is used here, too. In other words: The external
program is called only once per unique Pass Phrase.</p></li>

<p>
The available (case-insensitive) <em>protocol</em>s are:</p>

This is the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, version 2.0. It is the
original SSL protocol as designed by Netscape Corporation.</p></li>
<li><code>SSLv3</code>

This is the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol, version 3.0. It is the
successor to SSLv2 and the currently (as of February 1999) de-facto
standardized SSL protocol from Netscape Corporation. It's supported by
almost all popular browsers.</p></li>
<li><code>TLSv1</code>
<p>
This is the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, version 1.0. It is the
successor to SSLv3 and currently (as of February 1999) still under
construction by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). It's still
not supported by any popular browsers.</p></li>
<li><code>All</code>

This directive sets the directory where you keep the certificates and
keys used for authentication of the proxy server to remote servers.
</p>
<p>The files in this directory must be PEM-encoded and are accessed through
hash filenames. Additionally, you must create symbolic links named
<code><em>hash-value</em>.N</code>. And you should always make sure this
directory contains the appropriate symbolic links. Use the Makefile which
comes with mod_ssl to accomplish this task.

<p>When a proxy is configured to forward requests to a remote SSL
server, this directive can be used to configure certificate
verification of the remote server. Notice that this directive can be
used both in per-server and per-directory context. In per-server
context it applies to the remote server authentication process used in
the standard SSL handshake when a connection is established by the
proxy. In per-directory context it forces a SSL renegotation with the
reconfigured remote server verification level after the HTTP request
was read but before the HTTP response is sent.</p>
<div class="warning">
<p>Note that even when certificate verification is enabled,
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_ssl.html">mod_ssl</a></code> does <strong>not</strong> check whether the
<code>commonName</code> (hostname) attribute of the server certificate
matches the hostname used to connect to the server. In other words,
the proxy does not guarantee that the SSL connection to the backend
server is "secure" beyond the fact that the certificate is signed by
one of the CAs configured using the
<code class="directive">SSLProxyCACertificatePath</code> and/or
<code class="directive">SSLProxyCACertificateFile</code> directives.</p>
</div>
<p>
The following levels are available for <em>level</em>:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>none</strong>:
no remote server Certificate is required at all</li>
<li><strong>optional</strong>:
the remote server <em>may</em> present a valid Certificate</li>
<li><strong>require</strong>:
the remote server <em>has to</em> present a valid Certificate</li>
<li><strong>optional_no_ca</strong>:
the remote server may present a valid Certificate<br />
but it need not to be (successfully) verifiable.</li>
</ul>
<p>In practice only levels <strong>none</strong> and
<strong>require</strong> are really interesting, because level
<strong>optional</strong> doesn't work with all servers and level
<strong>optional_no_ca</strong> is actually against the idea of
authentication (but can be used to establish SSL test pages, etc.)</p>

<p>
This directive sets how deeply mod_ssl should verify before deciding that the
remote server does not have a valid certificate. Notice that this directive can be
used both in per-server and per-directory context. In per-server context it
applies to the client authentication process used in the standard SSL
handshake when a connection is established. In per-directory context it forces
a SSL renegotation with the reconfigured remote server verification depth after the
HTTP request was read but before the HTTP response is sent.</p>
<p>
The depth actually is the maximum number of intermediate certificate issuers,
i.e. the number of CA certificates which are max allowed to be followed while
verifying the remote server certificate. A depth of 0 means that self-signed
remote server certificates are accepted only, the default depth of 1 means
the remote server certificate can be self-signed or has to be signed by a CA
which is directly known to the server (i.e. the CA's certificate is under
<code class="directive"><a href="#sslproxycacertificatepath">SSLProxyCACertificatePath</a></code>), etc.</p>

<p>
This configures one or more sources for seeding the Pseudo Random Number
Generator (PRNG) in OpenSSL at startup time (<em>context</em> is
<code>startup</code>) and/or just before a new SSL connection is established
(<em>context</em> is <code>connect</code>). This directive can only be used
in the global server context because the PRNG is a global facility.</p>
<p>
The following <em>source</em> variants are available:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>builtin</code>
<p> This is the always available builtin seeding source. It's usage
consumes minimum CPU cycles under runtime and hence can be always used
without drawbacks. The source used for seeding the PRNG contains of the
current time, the current process id and (when applicable) a randomly
choosen 1KB extract of the inter-process scoreboard structure of Apache.
The drawback is that this is not really a strong source and at startup
time (where the scoreboard is still not available) this source just
produces a few bytes of entropy. So you should always, at least for the
startup, use an additional seeding source.</p></li>
<li><code>file:/path/to/source</code>
<p>
This variant uses an external file <code>/path/to/source</code> as the
source for seeding the PRNG. When <em>bytes</em> is specified, only the
first <em>bytes</em> number of bytes of the file form the entropy (and
<em>bytes</em> is given to <code>/path/to/source</code> as the first
argument). When <em>bytes</em> is not specified the whole file forms the
entropy (and <code>0</code> is given to <code>/path/to/source</code> as
the first argument). Use this especially at startup time, for instance
with an available <code>/dev/random</code> and/or
<code>/dev/urandom</code> devices (which usually exist on modern Unix
derivates like FreeBSD and Linux).</p>
<p>
<em>But be careful</em>: Usually <code>/dev/random</code> provides only as
much entropy data as it actually has, i.e. when you request 512 bytes of
entropy, but the device currently has only 100 bytes available two things
can happen: On some platforms you receive only the 100 bytes while on
other platforms the read blocks until enough bytes are available (which
can take a long time). Here using an existing <code>/dev/urandom</code> is
better, because it never blocks and actually gives the amount of requested
data. The drawback is just that the quality of the received data may not
be the best.</p>
<p>
On some platforms like FreeBSD one can even control how the entropy is
actually generated, i.e. by which system interrupts. More details one can
find under <em>rndcontrol(8)</em> on those platforms. Alternatively, when
your system lacks such a random device, you can use tool
like <a href="http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/">EGD</a>
(Entropy Gathering Daemon) and run it's client program with the
<code>exec:/path/to/program/</code> variant (see below) or use
<code>egd:/path/to/egd-socket</code> (see below).</p></li>
<li><code>exec:/path/to/program</code>
<p>
This variant uses an external executable
<code>/path/to/program</code> as the source for seeding the
PRNG. When <em>bytes</em> is specified, only the first
<em>bytes</em> number of bytes of its <code>stdout</code> contents
form the entropy. When <em>bytes</em> is not specified, the
entirety of the data produced on <code>stdout</code> form the
entropy. Use this only at startup time when you need a very strong
seeding with the help of an external program (for instance as in
the example above with the <code>truerand</code> utility you can
find in the mod_ssl distribution which is based on the AT&T
<em>truerand</em> library). Using this in the connection context
slows down the server too dramatically, of course. So usually you
should avoid using external programs in that context.</p></li>
<li><code>egd:/path/to/egd-socket</code> (Unix only)
<p>
This variant uses the Unix domain socket of the
external Entropy Gathering Daemon (EGD) (see <a href="http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/">http://www.lothar.com/tech
/crypto/</a>) to seed the PRNG. Use this if no random device exists
on your platform.</p></li>
</ul>

<p>
This directive specifies a general access requirement which has to be
fulfilled in order to allow access. It is a very powerful directive because the
requirement specification is an arbitrarily complex boolean expression
containing any number of access checks.</p>
<div class="warning">
<p>The implementation of <code>SSLRequire</code> is not thread safe.
Using <code>SSLRequire</code> inside <code>.htaccess</code> files
on a threaded <a href="../mpm.html">MPM</a> may cause random crashes.
</p>
</div>
<p>
The <em>expression</em> must match the following syntax (given as a BNF
grammar notation):</p>
<blockquote>
<pre>
expr ::= "<strong>true</strong>" | "<strong>false</strong>"
| "<strong>!</strong>" expr
| expr "<strong>&&</strong>" expr
| expr "<strong>||</strong>" expr
| "<strong>(</strong>" expr "<strong>)</strong>"
| comp
comp ::= word "<strong>==</strong>" word | word "<strong>eq</strong>" word
| word "<strong>!=</strong>" word | word "<strong>ne</strong>" word
| word "<strong><</strong>" word | word "<strong>lt</strong>" word
| word "<strong><=</strong>" word | word "<strong>le</strong>" word
| word "<strong>></strong>" word | word "<strong>gt</strong>" word
| word "<strong>>=</strong>" word | word "<strong>ge</strong>" word
| word "<strong>in</strong>" "<strong>{</strong>" wordlist "<strong>}</strong>"
| word "<strong>in</strong>" "<strong>OID(</strong>" word "<strong>)</strong>"
| word "<strong>=~</strong>" regex

digit ::= [0-9]+
cstring ::= "..."
variable ::= "<strong>%{</strong>" varname "<strong>}</strong>"
function ::= funcname "<strong>(</strong>" funcargs "<strong>)</strong>"
</pre>
</blockquote>
<p>while for <code>varname</code> any variable from <a href="#table3">Table 3</a> can be used. Finally for
<code>funcname</code> the following functions are available:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>file(</code><em>filename</em><code>)</code>
<p>
This function takes one string argument and expands to the contents of the
file. This is especially useful for matching this contents against a
regular expression, etc.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Notice that <em>expression</em> is first parsed into an internal machine
representation and then evaluated in a second step. Actually, in Global and
Per-Server Class context <em>expression</em> is parsed at startup time and
at runtime only the machine representation is executed. For Per-Directory
context this is different: here <em>expression</em> has to be parsed and
immediately executed for every request.</p>
<div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code>
SSLRequire ( %{SSL_CIPHER} !~ m/^(EXP|NULL)-/ \<br />
and %{SSL_CLIENT_S_DN_O} eq "Snake Oil, Ltd." \<br />

and %{TIME_HOUR} >= 8 and %{TIME_HOUR} <= 20 ) \<br />
or %{REMOTE_ADDR} =~ m/^192\.76\.162\.[0-9]+$/
</code></p></div>
<p>The <code>OID()</code> function expects to find zero or more instances
of the given OID in the client certificate, and compares the left-hand side
string against the value of matching OID attributes. Every matching OID is
checked, until a match is found.

<p>
This configures the storage type of the global/inter-process SSL Session
Cache. This cache is an optional facility which speeds up parallel request
processing. For requests to the same server process (via HTTP keep-alive),
OpenSSL already caches the SSL session information locally. But because modern
clients request inlined images and other data via parallel requests (usually
up to four parallel requests are common) those requests are served by
<em>different</em> pre-forked server processes. Here an inter-process cache
helps to avoid unneccessary session handshakes.</p>
<p>
The following four storage <em>type</em>s are currently supported:</p>
<ul>
<li><code>none</code>
<p>This disables the global/inter-process Session Cache. This
will incur a noticeable speed penalty and may cause problems if
using certain browsers, particularly if client certificates are
enabled. This setting is not recommended.</p></li>
<li><code>nonenotnull</code>
<p>This disables any global/inter-process Session Cache. However
it does force OpenSSL to send a non-null session ID to
accommodate buggy clients that require one.</p></li>
<li><code>dbm:/path/to/datafile</code>
<p>This makes use of a DBM hashfile on the local disk to
synchronize the local OpenSSL memory caches of the server
processes. This session cache may suffer reliability issues under
high load.</p></li>
<li><code>shm:/path/to/datafile</code>[<code>(</code><em>size</em><code>)</code>]
<p>This makes use of a high-performance cyclic buffer
(approx. <em>size</em> bytes in size) inside a shared memory
segment in RAM (established via <code>/path/to/datafile</code>) to
synchronize the local OpenSSL memory caches of the server
processes. This is the recommended session cache.</p></li>
<li><code>dc:UNIX:/path/to/socket</code>
<p>This makes use of the <a href="http://www.distcache.org/">distcache</a> distributed session
caching libraries. The argument should specify the location of
the server or proxy to be used using the distcache address syntax;
for example, <code>UNIX:/path/to/socket</code> specifies a UNIX
domain socket (typically a local dc_client proxy);
<code>IP:server.example.com:9001</code> specifies an IP
address.</p></li>

<code>REMOTE_USER</code> to be set. The <em>varname</em> can be
any of the <a href="#envvars">SSL environment variables</a>.</p>
<p>Note that this directive has no effect if the
<code>FakeBasic</code> option is used (see <a href="#ssloptions">SSLOptions</a>).</p>

This directive sets the Certificate verification level for the Client
Authentication. Notice that this directive can be used both in per-server and
per-directory context. In per-server context it applies to the client
authentication process used in the standard SSL handshake when a connection is
established. In per-directory context it forces a SSL renegotation with the
reconfigured client verification level after the HTTP request was read but
before the HTTP response is sent.</p>
<p>
The following levels are available for <em>level</em>:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>none</strong>:
no client Certificate is required at all</li>
<li><strong>optional</strong>:
the client <em>may</em> present a valid Certificate</li>
<li><strong>require</strong>:
the client <em>has to</em> present a valid Certificate</li>
<li><strong>optional_no_ca</strong>:
the client may present a valid Certificate<br />
but it need not to be (successfully) verifiable.</li>
</ul>
<p>In practice only levels <strong>none</strong> and
<strong>require</strong> are really interesting, because level
<strong>optional</strong> doesn't work with all browsers and level
<strong>optional_no_ca</strong> is actually against the idea of
authentication (but can be used to establish SSL test pages, etc.)</p>

<p>
This directive sets how deeply mod_ssl should verify before deciding that the
clients don't have a valid certificate. Notice that this directive can be
used both in per-server and per-directory context. In per-server context it
applies to the client authentication process used in the standard SSL
handshake when a connection is established. In per-directory context it forces
a SSL renegotation with the reconfigured client verification depth after the
HTTP request was read but before the HTTP response is sent.</p>
<p>
The depth actually is the maximum number of intermediate certificate issuers,
i.e. the number of CA certificates which are max allowed to be followed while
verifying the client certificate. A depth of 0 means that self-signed client
certificates are accepted only, the default depth of 1 means the client
certificate can be self-signed or has to be signed by a CA which is directly
known to the server (i.e. the CA's certificate is under
<code class="directive"><a href="#sslcacertificatepath">SSLCACertificatePath</a></code>), etc.</p>

SSLVerifyDepth 10
