Given how we're currently managing our dependencies in this project, it
doesn't make sense to list transitive dependencies in this set of
requirements (i.e. it's not meant to act as a lock file).
Also includes:
- Updated the versions in the requirements, as MarkupSafe did not install cleanly.
- Integration test that sets a password via the website, and then
verifies the timeout on the backend.
- Basic Makefile, updates to the docs to use the Makefile.
The requirements file was updated using pip freeze after I had updated the version of MarkupSafe. I don't know what the usual process is for this repo, so please let me know if I should use a different process there (that is why there are a few additions).
* Remove Travis Python 3.7 hack
No longer necessary: 3.7 is supported out-of-the-box
* Add support for Python 3.8
And explicitly document in setup.py
* "Upgrade base Docker image to Python 3.8"a
* Add entry about py38 support in WIP changelog
* Explicitly declare python versions in setup.py
* Bump Werkzeug to 0.15.6
This is the latest 0.15 version. 0.16 might be incompatible
The fix we are looking for is in [0.15.5](http://werkzeug.palletsprojects.com/en/0.15.x/changes/#version-0-15-5):
> Fix a TypeError due to changes to ast.Module in Python 3.8.
This addresses CVE-2018-10903:
A flaw was found in python-cryptography versions between >=1.9.0 and
<2.3. The finalize_with_tag API did not enforce a minimum tag
length. If a user did not validate the input length prior to passing
it to finalize_with_tag an attacker could craft an invalid payload
with a shortened tag (e.g. 1 byte) such that they would have a 1 in
256 chance of passing the MAC check. GCM tag forgeries can cause key
leakage.
... although snappass isn't affected because we doesn't use the
vulnerable `finalize_with_tag` API.
Using symmetric encryption in the `cryptography`'s `Fernet` class,
we can ensure that no one can snoop the passwords simply by having access
to the Redis store.
An encryption key is sent to the secret receiver, along with the 32 character
Redis key that identifies the secret, which is needed to decrypt the password.
