# Written April 1996, <tale@isc.org> (David C Lawrence)
# Currently maintained by Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>
# Version 1.28, 2007-09-18
#
# NOTICE TO INN MAINTAINERS: The version that is shipped with INN is the
# same as the version that I make available to the rest of the world
# (including non-INN sites), so please make all changes through me.
#
# This program requires Perl 5, probably at least about Perl 5.003 since
# that's when FileHandle was introduced. If you want to use this program
# and your Perl is too old, please contact me (rra@stanford.edu) and tell
# me about it; I want to know what old versions of Perl are still used in
# practice.
#
# Changes from 1.27 -> 1.28
# -- Use the INN::Config Perl module instead of innshellvars.pl to
# accomodate the new build process of INN 2.5.
#
# Changes from 1.26 -> 1.27
# -- Default to pubring.gpg when trustedkeys.gpg is not found in the
# default key location, for backward compatibility.
#
# Changes from 1.25 -> 1.26
# -- Return the correct status code when the message isn't verified
# instead of always returning 255.
#
# Changes from 1.24 -> 1.25
# -- Fix the -test switch to actually do something.
# -- Improve date generation when logging to standard output.
#
# Changes from 1.23 -> 1.24
# -- Fix bug in the recognition of wire-format articles.
#
# Changes from 1.15 -> 1.23
# -- Bump version number to match CVS revision number.
# -- Replaced all signature verification code with code that uses detached
# signatures. Signatures generated by GnuPG couldn't be verified using
# attached signatures without adding a Hash: header, and this was the
# path of least resistance plus avoids munging problems in the future.
# Code taken from PGP::Sign.
#
# Changes from 1.14 -> 1.15
# -- Added POD documentation.
# -- Fixed the -test switch so that it works again.
# -- Dropped Perl 4 compatibility and reformatted. Now passes use strict.
#
# Changes from 1.13.1 -> 1.14
# -- Native support for GnuPG without the pgpgpg wrapper, using GnuPG's
# program interface by Marco d'Itri.
# -- Always use Sys::Syslog without any setlogsock call for Perl 5.6.0 or
# later, since Sys::Syslog in those versions of Perl uses the C library
# interface and is now portable.
# -- Default to expecting the key ring in $inn'newsetc/pgp if it exists.
# -- Fix a portability problem for Perl 4 introduced in 1.12.
#
# Changes from 1.13 -> 1.13.1
# -- Nothing functional, just moved the innshellvars.pl line to the head of
# the script, to accomodate the build process of INN.
#
# Changes from 1.12 -> 1.13
# -- Use INN's syslog_facility if available.
#
# Changes from 1.11 -> 1.12
# -- Support for GnuPG.
# -- Use /usr/ucb/logger, if present, instead of /usr/bin/logger (the latter
# of which, on Solaris at least, is some sort of brain damaged POSIX.2
# command which doesn't use syslog).
# -- Made syslog work for dec_osf (version 4, at least).
# -- Fixed up priority of '.' operator vs bitwise operators.
#
# Changes from 1.10 -> 1.11
# -- Code to log error messages to syslog.
# See $syslog and $syslog_method configurable variables.
# -- Configurably allow date stamp on stderr error messages.
# -- Added locking for multiple concurrent pgp instances.
# -- More clear error message if pgp exits abnormally.
# -- Identify PGP 5 "BAD signature" string.
# -- Minor diddling for INN (path to innshellvars.pl changed).
#
# Changes from 1.9 -> 1.10
# -- Minor diddling for INN 2.0: use $inn'pathtmp if it exists, and
# work with the new subst method to find innshellvars.pl.
# -- Do not truncate the tmp file when opening, in case it is really
# linked to another file.
#
# Changes from 1.8 -> 1.9
# -- Match 'Bad signature' pgp output to return exit status 3 by removing
# '^' in regexp matched on multiline string.
#
# Changes from 1.7 -> 1.8
# -- Ignore final dot-CRLF if article is in NNTP format.
#
# Changes from 1.6 -> 1.7
# -- Parse PGP 5.0 'good signature' lines.
# -- Allow -test switch; prints pgp input and output.
# -- Look for pgp in INN's innshellvars.pl.
# -- Changed regexp delimiters for stripping $0 to be compatible with old
# Perl.
#
# Changes from 1.5 -> 1.6
# -- Handle articles encoded in NNTP format ('.' starting line is doubled,
# \r\n at line end) by stripping NNTP encoding.
# -- Exit 255 with pointer to $HOME or $PGPPATH if pgp can't find key
# ring. (It probably doesn't match the necessary error message with
# ViaCrypt PGP.)
# -- Failures also report Message-ID so the article can be looked up to
# retry.
#
# Changes from 1.4 -> 1.5
# -- Force English language for 'Good signature from user' by passing
# +language=en on pgp command line, rather than setting the
# environment variable LANGUAGE to 'en'.
#
# Changes from 1.3 -> 1.4
# -- Now handles wrapped headers that have been unfolded.
# (Though I do believe news software oughtn't be unfolding them.)
# -- Checks to ensure that the temporary file is really a file, and
# not a link or some other weirdness.
# Path to the GnuPG gpgv binary, if you have GnuPG. If you do, this will
# be used in preference to PGP. For most current control messages, you

# How should syslog be accessed?
#
# As it turns out, syslogging is very hard to do portably in versions of
# Perl prior to 5.6.0. Sys::Syslog should work without difficulty in
# 5.6.0 or later and will be used automatically for those versions of Perl
# (unless $syslog_method is ''). For earlier versions of Perl, 'inet' is
# all that's available up to version 5.004_03. If your syslog does not
# accept UDP log packets, such as when syslogd runs with the -l flag,
# 'inet' will not work. A value of 'unix' will try to contact syslogd
# directly over a Unix domain socket built entirely in Perl code (no
# subprocesses). If that is not working for you, and you have the
# 'logger' program on your system, set this variable to its full path name
# to have a subprocess contact syslogd. If the method is just "logger",
# the script will search some known directories for that program. If it
# can't be found & used, everything falls back on stderr logging.
#
# You can test the script's syslogging by running "pgpverify <
# /some/text/file" on a file that is not a valid news article. The
# "non-header at line #" error should be syslogged.
#
# $syslog_method = 'unix'; # Unix doman socket, Perl 5.004_03 or higher.
# $syslog_method = 'inet'; # UDP to port 514 of localhost.
# $syslog_method = ''; # Don't ever try to do syslogging.
$syslog_method = 'logger'; # Search for the logger program.
# The next two variables are the values to be used for syslog's facility
# and level to use, as would be found in syslog.conf. For various
# reasons, it is impossible to economically have the script figure out how
# to do syslogging correctly on the machine. If you have INN and the
# script is able to successfully include you INN::Config module, then
# the value of $INN::Config::syslog_facility will override this value of
# $syslog_facility; $syslog_level is unaffected.

=head1 NAME
pgpverify - Cryptographically verify Usenet control messages
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<pgpverify> [B<-test>] < I<message>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<pgpverify> program reads (on standard input) a Usenet control
message that has been cryptographically signed using the B<signcontrol>
program (or some other program that produces a compatible format).
B<pgpverify> then uses a PGP implementation to determine who signed the
control message. If the control message has a valid signature,
B<pgpverify> prints (to stdout) the user ID of the key that signed the
message. Otherwise, it exits with a non-zero exit status.
If B<pgpverify> is installed as part of INN, it uses INN's configuration
to determine what signature verification program to use, how to log
errors, what temporary directory to use, and what keyring to use.
Otherwise, all of those parameters can be set by editing the beginning of
this script.
By default, when running as part of INN, B<pgpverify> expects the PGP key
ring to be found in I<pathetc>/pgp (as either F<pubring.pgp> or
F<pubring.gpg> depending on whether PGP or GnuPG is used to verify
signatures). If that directory doesn't exist, it will fall back on using
the default key ring, which is in a F<.pgp> or F<.gnupg> subdirectory of
the running user's home directory.
INN, when using GnuPG, configures B<pgpverify> to use B<gpgv>, which by
default expects keys to be in a keyring named F<trustedkeys.gpg>, since it
doesn't implement trust checking directly. B<pgpverify> uses that file if
present but falls back to F<pubring.gpg> if it's not found. This bypasses
the trust model for checking keys, but is compatible with the way that
B<pgpverify> used to behave. Of course, if a keyring is found in
I<pathetc>/pgp or configured at the top of the script, that overrides all of
this behavior.
=head1 OPTIONS
The B<-test> flag causes B<pgpverify> to print out the input that it is
passing to PGP (which is a reconstructed version of the input that
supposedly created the control message) as well as the output from PGP's
analysis of the message.
=head1 EXIT STATUS
B<pgpverify> may exit with the following statuses:
=over 4
=item 0Z<>
The control message had a good PGP signature.
=item 1
The control message had no PGP signature.
=item 2
The control message had an unknown PGP signature.
=item 3
The control message had a bad PGP signature.
=item 255
A problem occurred not directly related to PGP analysis of signature.
=back
=head1 ENVIRONMENT
B<pgpverify> does not modify or otherwise alter the environment before
invoking the B<pgp> or B<gpgv> program. It is the responsibility of the
person who installs B<pgpverify> to ensure that when B<pgp> or B<gpgv>
runs, it has the ability to locate and read a PGP key file that contains
the PGP public keys for the appropriate Usenet hierarchy administrators.
B<pgpverify> can be pointed to an appropriate key ring by editing
variables at the beginning of this script.
=head1 NOTES
Historically, Usenet news server administrators have configured their news
servers to automatically honor Usenet control messages based on the
originator of the control messages and the hierarchies for which the
control messages applied. For example, in the past, David Lawrence always
issued control messages for the S<"Big 8"> hierarchies (comp, humanities,
misc, news, rec, sci, soc, talk). Usenet news administrators would
configure their news server software to automatically honor newgroup and
rmgroup control messages that originated from David Lawrence and applied
to any of the S<Big 8> hierarchies.
Unfortunately, Usenet news articles (including control messages) are
notoriously easy to forge. Soon, malicious users realized they could
create or remove (at least temporarily) any S<Big 8> newsgroup they wanted by
simply forging an appropriate control message in David Lawrence's name.
As Usenet became more widely used, forgeries became more common.
The B<pgpverify> program was designed to allow Usenet news administrators
to configure their servers to cryptographically verify control messages
before automatically acting on them. Under the B<pgpverify> system, a Usenet
hierarchy maintainer creates a PGP public/private key pair and
disseminates the public key. Whenever the hierarchy maintainer issues a
control message, he uses the B<signcontrol> program to sign the control
message with the PGP private key. Usenet news administrators configure
their news servers to run the B<pgpverify> program on the appropriate
control messages, and take action based on the PGP key User ID that signed
the control message, not the name and address that appear in the control
message's From: or Sender: headers.
Thus, appropriate use of the B<signcontrol> and B<pgpverify> programs
essentially eliminates the possibility of malicious users forging Usenet
control messages that sites will act upon, as such users would have to
obtain the PGP private key in order to forge a control message that would
pass the cryptographic verification step. If the hierarchy administrators
properly protect their PGP private keys, the only way a malicious user
could forge a validly-signed control message would be by breaking the
public key encryption algorithm, which (at least at this time) is believed
to be prohibitively difficult for PGP keys of a sufficient bit length.
