irmd: Specify peer authentication contract
OAP accepted requests and responses without a certificate even when the peer was expected to authenticate. An on-path attacker could strip the certificate and signature from a flow allocation response and substitute its own key exchange, silently downgrading the handshake to unauthenticated. Add an auth=required|optional policy to enc.conf, enforced per role: a client config requires the server to present a valid certificate, a server config requires the same from the client. Default is required for client side (https), optional server side. The client side default can be changed via OAP_CLIENT_AUTH_DEFAULT for testing. Replace the bare 'none' keyword with encryption=none, which disables encryption only: the digest and the authentication policy are kept, so authenticated but unencrypted flows can be configured. Configs using bare 'none' are now rejected. Signed-off-by: Dimitri Staessens <dimitri@ouroboros.rocks> Signed-off-by: Sander Vrijders <sander@ouroboros.rocks>
