The default SSL cipher list introduced with 0.50.0 in
commit 2c87739 was overly restrictive and resulted in
clients unable to negotiate SSL connections.
Adjust the default cipher to the more sensible:
HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL:!MD5:!DSS:!3DES:!RC4:!EXPORT
Correct a bug that would not allow an SSL handshake
to properly complete if the port was configured using
the `wss` keyword.
The existing configuration includes 512 and 1024 bit DH
parameters and supports ciphers such as RC4 and 3DES and
hash algorithms like SHA-1 which are no longer considered
secure.
Going forward, use only 2048-bit DH parameters and define
a new default set of modern ciphers to use:
HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5:!DSS:!SHA1:!3DES:!RC4:!EXPORT:!DSS
Additionally, allow administrators who wish to have different
settings to configure custom global and per-port ciphers suites
in the configuration file using the `ssl_ciphers` directive.
The specification requires that we verify that the
signature and modulus of an RSA-SHA256 fulfillment
are both the same length (specifically that they
have "the same number of octets") referring to the
encoded length.
We were, instead, checking the number of bytes that
the signature and modulus had after decoding.
This combines two enhancements to the ledger_data RPC
command and related commands.
The ledger_data RPC command will now return the ledger header
in the first query (the one with no marker specified).
Also, ledger_data and related commands will now provide the
ledger header in binary if binary output is specified.
Modified existing ledgerdata unit test to cover new functionality.
When started with "--start", put all known, non-vetoed
amendments in the genesis ledger. This avoids the need
to wait 256 ledgers before amendments are enabled when
testing with a fresh ledger.
This will allow code that looks at the ledger header to know what version the
SHAMap uses. This is helpful for code that rebuilds ledger binary structures
from the leaves.
Add an amendment to allow gateways to set a "tick size"
for assets they issue. There are no changes unless the
amendment is enabled (since the tick size option cannot
be set).
With the amendment enabled:
AccountSet transactions may set a "TickSize" parameter.
Legal values are 0 and 3-15 inclusive. Zero removes the
setting. 3-15 allow that many decimal digits of precision
in the pricing of offers for assets issued by this account.
For asset pairs with XRP, the tick size imposed, if any,
is the tick size of the issuer of the non-XRP asset. For
asset pairs without XRP, the tick size imposed, if any,
is the smaller of the two issuer's configured tick sizes.
The tick size is imposed by rounding the offer quality
down to nearest tick and recomputing the non-critical
side of the offer. For a buy, the amount offered is
rounded down. For a sell, the amount charged is rounded up.
Gateways must enable a TickSize on their account for this
feature to benefit them.
The primary expected benefit is the elimination of bots
fighting over the tip of the order book. This means:
- Quicker price discovery as outpricing someone by a
microscopic amount is made impossible. Currently
bots can spend hours outbidding each other with no
significant price movement.
- A reduction in offer creation and cancellation spam.
- More offers left on the books as priority means
something when you can't outbid by a microscopic amount.
Migrate tests in uniport-test.js to cpp/jtx. Handle exceptions in
WSClient and JSONRPClient constructors. Use shorter timeout
for HTTP and WS Peers when client is localhost. Add missing call to
start_timer in HTTP Peer. Add incomplete WS Upgrade request test
to prove that server timeout is working.
* Force jtx to request/receive the 2.0 API
* Force the JSON and WebSocket tests to use 2.0 API
* This specifically allows the Websocket to create 2.0 json/ripple
and get back a 2.0 response.
* Add test for malformed json2
* Add check for parse failure
* Add check for params to be in array form.
* Correct type-o discovered in tests due to stricter checking.
* Add API version to the WSClient & JSONRPCClient test
* Update source.dox with more headers
Previously, manifests sent to new peers were marked as history so that
they would not be forwarded. However, this prevented a starting up
node's new manifest from being forwarded beyond its directly connected
peers. Stale or invalid manifests are still not forwarded.
