使用 Swift 和 NSURLSession 固定 iOS 证书

Question

Howto add certificate pinning to a NSURLSession in Swift?

The OWASP website contains only an example for Objective-C and NSURLConnection.

Answer 1

Swift 3+ Update:

Just define a delegate class for NSURLSessionDelegate and implement the didReceiveChallenge function ( this code is adapted from the objective-c OWASP example ):

class NSURLSessionPinningDelegate: NSObject, URLSessionDelegate {

    func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Swift.Void) {

        // Adapted from OWASP https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Certificate_and_Public_Key_Pinning#iOS

        if (challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod == NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust) {
            if let serverTrust = challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust {
                let isServerTrusted = SecTrustEvaluateWithError(serverTrust, nil)

                if(isServerTrusted) {
                    if let serverCertificate = SecTrustGetCertificateAtIndex(serverTrust, 0) {
                        let serverCertificateData = SecCertificateCopyData(serverCertificate)
                        let data = CFDataGetBytePtr(serverCertificateData);
                        let size = CFDataGetLength(serverCertificateData);
                        let cert1 = NSData(bytes: data, length: size)
                        let file_der = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "certificateFile", ofType: "der")

                        if let file = file_der {
                            if let cert2 = NSData(contentsOfFile: file) {
                                if cert1.isEqual(to: cert2 as Data) {
                                    completionHandler(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition.useCredential, URLCredential(trust:serverTrust))
                                    return
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        // Pinning failed
        completionHandler(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition.cancelAuthenticationChallenge, nil)
    }

}

(you can find a Gist for Swift 2 here - from the initial answer )

Then create the .der file for your website using openssl

openssl s_client -connect my-https-website.com:443 -showcerts < /dev/null | openssl x509 -outform DER > my-https-website.der

and add it to the xcode project. Double check that it's present in the Build phases tab, inside the Copy Bundle Resources list. Otherwise drag and drop it inside this list.

Finally use it in your code to make URL requests:

if let url = NSURL(string: "https://my-https-website.com") {

    let session = URLSession(
            configuration: URLSessionConfiguration.ephemeral,
            delegate: NSURLSessionPinningDelegate(),
            delegateQueue: nil)


    let task = session.dataTask(with: url as URL, completionHandler: { (data, response, error) -> Void in
        if error != nil {
            print("error: \(error!.localizedDescription): \(error!)")
        } else if data != nil {
            if let str = NSString(data: data!, encoding: String.Encoding.utf8.rawValue) {
                print("Received data:\n\(str)")
            } else {
                print("Unable to convert data to text")
            }
        }
    })

    task.resume()
} else {
    print("Unable to create NSURL")
}

Answer 2

Thanks to the example found in this site: https://www.bugsee.com/blog/ssl-certificate-pinning-in-mobile-applications/ I built a version that pins the public key and not the entire certificate (more convenient if you renew your certificate periodically).

Update: Removed the forced unwrapping and replaced SecTrustEvaluate.

Here's an updated version for Swift 3

import Foundation
import Security

class NSURLSessionPinningDelegate: NSObject, URLSessionDelegate {

    func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Swift.Void) {

        // Adapted from OWASP https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Certificate_and_Public_Key_Pinning#iOS

        if (challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod == NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust) {
            if let serverTrust = challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust {
                var secresult = SecTrustResultType.invalid
                let status = SecTrustEvaluate(serverTrust, &secresult)

                if(errSecSuccess == status) {
                    if let serverCertificate = SecTrustGetCertificateAtIndex(serverTrust, 0) {
                        let serverCertificateData = SecCertificateCopyData(serverCertificate)
                        let data = CFDataGetBytePtr(serverCertificateData);

                                if cert1.isEqual(to: cert2 as Data) {
                                    completionHandler(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition.useCredential, URLCredential(trust:serverTrust))
                                    return
                                }

                    }
                }
            }
        }

        // Pinning failed
        completionHandler(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition.cancelAuthenticationChallenge, nil)
    }

}

Answer 4

Save the certificate (as .cer file) of your website in the main bundle. Then use this URLSessionDelegate method:

func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, completionHandler: @escaping (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void) {

    guard
        challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod == NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust,
        let serverTrust = challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust,
        SecTrustEvaluate(serverTrust, nil) == errSecSuccess,
        let serverCert = SecTrustGetCertificateAtIndex(serverTrust, 0) else {

            reject(with: completionHandler)
            return
    }

    let serverCertData = SecCertificateCopyData(serverCert) as Data

    guard
        let localCertPath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: "shop.rewe.de", ofType: "cer"),
        let localCertData = NSData(contentsOfFile: localCertPath) as Data?,

        localCertData == serverCertData else {

            reject(with: completionHandler)
            return
    }

    accept(with: serverTrust, completionHandler)

}

...

func reject(with completionHandler: ((URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void)) {
    completionHandler(.cancelAuthenticationChallenge, nil)
}

func accept(with serverTrust: SecTrust, _ completionHandler: ((URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Void)) {
    completionHandler(.useCredential, URLCredential(trust: serverTrust))
}

Answer 5

Just a heads up, SecTrustEvaluate is deprecated and should be replaced with SecTrustEvaluateWithError .

So this:

var secresult = SecTrustResultType.invalid
let status = SecTrustEvaluate(serverTrust, &secresult)

if errSecSuccess == status {
   // Proceed with evaluation
   switch result {
   case .unspecified, .proceed:    return true
   default:                        return false
   }
}

The reason i wrote the // Proceed with evaluation section is because you should validate the secresult as well as this could imply that the certificate is actually invalid. You have the option to override this and add any raised issues as exceptions, preferably after prompting the user for a decision.

Should be this:

if SecTrustEvaluateWithError(server, nil) {
   // Certificate is valid, proceed.
}

The second param will capture any error, but if you are not interested in the specifics, you can just pass nil .

Answer 6

The openssl command in @lifeisfoo's answer will give an error in OS X for certain SSL certificates that use newer ciphers like ECDSA.

If you're getting the following error when you run the openssl command in @lifeisfoo's answer:

    write:errno=54
    unable to load certificate
    1769:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start
    line:/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/OpenSSL098/OpenSSL09        
    8-59.60.1/src/crypto/pem/pem_lib.c:648:Expecting: TRUSTED CERTIFICATE

You're website's SSL certificate probably is using an algorithm that isn't supported in OS X's default openssl version (v0.9.X, which does NOT support ECDSA, among others).

Here's the fix:

To get the proper .der file, you'll have to first brew install openssl , and then replace the openssl command from @lifeisfoo's answer with:

/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2h_1/bin/openssl [rest of the above command]

Homebrew install command:

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

hope that helps.

Answer 7

You can try this.

import Foundation
import Security

class NSURLSessionPinningDelegate: NSObject, URLSessionDelegate {

      let certFileName = "name-of-cert-file"
      let certFileType = "cer"

      func urlSession(_ session: URLSession, 
                  didReceive challenge: URLAuthenticationChallenge, 
                  completionHandler: @escaping (URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition, URLCredential?) -> Swift.Void) {

    if (challenge.protectionSpace.authenticationMethod == NSURLAuthenticationMethodServerTrust) {
        if let serverTrust = challenge.protectionSpace.serverTrust {
            var secresult = SecTrustResultType.invalid
            let status = SecTrustEvaluate(serverTrust, &secresult)

            if(errSecSuccess == status) {
                if let serverCertificate = SecTrustGetCertificateAtIndex(serverTrust, 0) {
                    let serverCertificateData = SecCertificateCopyData(serverCertificate)
                    let data = CFDataGetBytePtr(serverCertificateData);
                    let size = CFDataGetLength(serverCertificateData);
                    let certificateOne = NSData(bytes: data, length: size)
                    let filePath = Bundle.main.path(forResource: self.certFileName, 
                                                         ofType: self.certFileType)

                    if let file = filePath {
                        if let certificateTwo = NSData(contentsOfFile: file) {
                            if certificateOne.isEqual(to: certificateTwo as Data) {
                                completionHandler(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition.useCredential, 
                                                  URLCredential(trust:serverTrust))
                                return
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }

    // Pinning failed
    completionHandler(URLSession.AuthChallengeDisposition.cancelAuthenticationChallenge, nil)
}
}
