[Neustradamus]

Welcome, this page informs you about the security, all SCRAM variants and Channel Binding (-PLUS variants) too.

Important history:

CRAM-MD5 to Historic:

• https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sasl-crammd5-to-historic-00 // 20 November 2008
• https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zeilenga-luis140219-crammd5-to-historic-00 // June 29, 2017

RFC6331: Moving DIGEST-MD5 to Historic:

• https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6331 // July 2011

RFC8600: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8600 (2019-06-21): https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf-announce/suJMmeMhuAOmGn_PJYgX5Vm8lNA
When using the SASL SCRAM mechanism, the SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS variant SHOULD be preferred over the SCRAM-SHA-256 variant, and SHA-256 variants [RFC7677] SHOULD be preferred over SHA-1 variants [RFC5802].

But in "Best practices for password hashing and storage" expired I-D:

• https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-kitten-password-storage

- EXTERNAL
- SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS
- SCRAM-SHA-1-PLUS
- SCRAM-SHA-256
- SCRAM-SHA-1
- PLAIN

About Channel Binding (for -PLUS variants):

• RFC5056: On the Use of Channel Bindings to Secure Channels: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5056 // November 2007
• RFC5929: Channel Bindings for TLS: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5929 // July 2010
• Channel-Binding Types: https://www.iana.org/assignments/channel-binding-types/channel-binding-types.xhtml
• RFC9266: Channel Bindings for TLS 1.3: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc9266 // July 2022

Some important XEPs:

• XEP-0388: Extensible SASL Profile: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0388.html
• XEP-0440: SASL Channel-Binding Type Capability: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0440.html
• XEP-0474: SASL SCRAM Downgrade Protection: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0474.html
• XEP-0480: SASL Upgrade Tasks: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0480.html

Little details, to know easily:

• tls-unique for TLS =< 1.2 (RFC5929)
• tls-server-end-point (RFC5929)
• tls-exporter for TLS = 1.3 (RFC9266)

After the jabber.ru MITM, Channel Binding is the solution:

Article: Convert old unsecured MD5 passwords to SCRAM-SHA-256 with PostgreSQL: https://info.crunchydata.com/blog/how-to-upgrade-postgresql-passwords-to-scram

Since PostgreSQL 10, MD5 -> SCRAM-SHA-256:
SCRAM-SHA-256 has been added in PostgreSQL 10
SCRAM-SHA-256-PLUS variant (with TLS Binding) has been added in PostgreSQL 13
SCRAM-SHA-256 is selected by default in PostgreSQL 14

Based on go-gomail/gomail#198 (the project is not maintained anymore), I've created wneessen/go-mail#242 for the go-mail project. The PR is currently in review and expected to be merged into main during this week.
