opmsg
A gpg alternative
opmsg is a replacement for gpg which can encrypt/sign/verify
your mails or create/verify detached signatures of local files.
Even though the opmsg output looks similar, the concept is entirely
different.
Features:
- Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) by means of ECDH or DH Kex
- native EC or RSA fallback if no (EC)DH keys left
- fully compliant to existing SMTP/IMAP/POP etc. standards;
no need to touch any mail daemon/client/agent code - signing messages is mandatory
- OTR-like deniable signatures if demanded
- easy creation and throw-away of ids
- support for 1:1 key bindings to auto-select source key per destination
- adds the possibility to (re-)route messages different
from mail address to defeat meta data collection - configurable, well-established hash and crypto algorithms
and key lengths (RSA, DH, ECC, AES, Chacha) - straight forward and open key storage, basically also managable via
cat,shred -uandlson the cmdline - seamless mutt integration
- Key format suitable for easy use with QR-codes
- optional cross-domain ECDH Kex
opmsg builds fine with any of the OpenSSL, LibreSSL and BoringSSL libcrypto libraries.
Building against BoringSSL is not recommended due to missing blowfish and ripemd algorithms.
You can use various transports with opmsg such as Mail or drops.
Keys can be exchanged via mail, brainkeys or QR codes.
Build
opmsg requires the crypto primitives from OpenSSL. Just relax, its
not using the SSL/TLS proto, just the ciphering and hash algorithms.
For standard Linux distros, just type make.
The compilation requires a C++ compiler that supports -std=c++11.
This can be configured with e.g. make CXX=eg++ LD=eg++ on OpenBSD.
This project supports both BN_GENCB_new and BN_GENCB for big number
generation. To disable BN_GENCB_new, set HAVE_BN_GENCB_NEW to false:
make DEFS=-DHAVE_BN_GENCB_NEW=0. So on OpenBSD, you would run
make CXX=eg++ LD=eg++ DEFS=-DHAVE_BN_GENCB_NEW=0. On OSX you should install
your own OpenSSL, as Apple marks OpenSSL as deprecated in favor of their own
crypto libs. You may also set all these options in the Makefile.
It successfully builds on Linux, OSX, OpenBSD and probably a lot of others
(Solaris, FreeBSD,...).

documented in README2.md. You may also want to check
opmsg-qr later on, to im/export opmsg
personas via QR codes, once you have set up your working environment.
Personas
The key concept of opmsg is the use of personas. Personas are
an identity with either an EC or RSA key bound to it. Communication happens between
two personas (which could be the same) which are uniquely identified
by the hashsum of their EC/RSA keys:
$ opmsg --newp --name stealth
opmsg: version=1.2 -- (C) 2015 opmsg-team: https://github.com/stealth/opmsg

opmsg: Tell your remote peer to add the following RSA pubkey like this:
opmsg: opmsg --import --phash sha256 --name stealth
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----

WkmRflKuaCEMQ3RjcQIDAQAB
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----
opmsg: Check (by phone, otr, twitter, id-selfie etc.) that above id matches
opmsg: the import message from your peer.
opmsg: AFTER THAT, you can go ahead, safely exchanging op-messages.
opmsg: SUCCESS.
This is pretty self-explaining. A new persona with name stealth is
created. The public RSA key of this persona has to be imported by
the remote peer that you want to opmsg-mail with via
opmsg --import --phash sha256 --name stealth
just as hinted above. After pasting the public key of your communication peer
into above commandline - once it told you to do so - you will be given the persona ID,
that consists of the hashsum (sha256 in this case) of the public key. ID's
may be presented to you in --short, --long, or --split (default) form,
and will be auto-detected in either form as you pass it to the command line.
opmsg does not rely on a web-of-trust which in fact never really
worked. Rather, due to ubiquious messenging, its much simpler today
to verify the hashsum of the persona via additional communication
paths. E.g. if you send the pubkey via plain mail, use SMS and twitter
to distribute the hash, or send a picture/selfie with the hash
and something that uniquely identifies you. Using two additional
communication paths, which are unrelated to the path that
you sent the key along, you have a high degree of trust.
Side-note: If you want to stay anonymous, do not send selfies
with your persona id and dont use communication paths that can
be mapped to you.
By default sha256 is used to hash the pubkey blob but you may also specify ripemd160
or sha512. Whichever you choose, its important that your peer knows
about it during import, because you will be referenced with this hex hash value
(your persona ID) in future.
The private part of the keys which are stored inside ~/.opmsg
are NOT encrypted. It is believed that once someone gained access
to your account, its all lost anyway (except for PFS as explained later),
so a passpharse just add a wrong feeling of security here. Keep
your account/box unpwned! Otherwise end2end encryption makes little
sense.
opmsg encourages users for easy persona creation and throwaway.
The directory structure below ~/.opmsg is easy and straight
forward. It just maps the hex ids of the personas and (EC)DH keys
to directories and can in fact be edited by hand.
Creation of RSA personas might take some time. Not just an RSA key
is generated in that case - which is not very time consuming - but also DH
parameters (2048bit by default) that are used to implement PFS
in later messenging (see later chapter).
In order to speed up persona generation and to encourage use- and throwaway
and per-project personas, EC support was added to opmsg as of version=1.5.
Instead of --newp you would just use --newecp and everything else is the
same. opmsg will pick the right crypto transparently to you. No need to add
any further switches for encryption or alike. EC personas use the brainpool curves
(RFC 5639). The NIST curve secp521r1 may also be used as a fallback if your
libcrypto is outdated, but its recommended to use the brainpool curves which
dont keep any secrets about how their group parameters were selected.
Also see the chapter about cross-domain ECDH down below.
Persona linking
Although this step is not strictly necessary, it is recommended. As personas are easily
created, you can (should) create a dedicated persona for each of your "projects" or
contacts. That is, if you have 7 communication partners/peers, you should have
created 7 personas; one EC/RSA key for each of them. To handle that easily with your
mailer (see later for MUA integration), you should add a proper --name, describing your
id. If you are using email addresses along with names, use the format of --name 'da name <name@address>'
so that your MUA can easily pick a list of candidates for you.
Additionally, you should --link your source persona (each of the 7 you created)
to the particular destination persona that you wish to communicate with using this source id:
$ opmsg --link b3c32d47dc8b58a6 --persona 1cb7992f96663853
opmsg: version=1.2 -- (C) 2015 opmsg-team: https://github.com/stealth/opmsg
opmsg: linking personas
opmsg: SUCCESS.
This is to avoid the need to specify --persona each time you
send a message to a different target persona, changing your local
id back and forth inside the config file or at the command line.
Above command says, that each time you send an opmsg to b3c32d47dc8b58a6,
the keying material from your local id 1cb7992f96663853 is used. To unlink
your id from b3c32d47dc8b58a6, remove the srclink file inside this personas
directory.
If no link is found for a persona, the config file and given
--persona argument is evaluated. Command line arguments override the config file settings.
Given proper mail provider support (e.g. inboxes are created on the fly
for addresses like hexid@example.com), the global surveillance meta graph would
just contain pairs of communication partners. No clusters, just islands
of 1:1 mappings.
Deniable personas
There may be valid scenarios where you dont want your communication peer to have a way to proof
that you wrote a certain message. Since op messages are always signed with your persona
key, peer could proof that you were expressing illegal thoughts. So you want deniable messages
that are still integrity protected. The OTR protocol is handling this by sharing the public as
well as the private key for a dedicated communication session between both peers.
opmsg allows to do the same. It requires an additional communication step with a peer
that you already imported once and which you suspect to do such back stabbing.
(Generally speaking its wise to assume that case.)
It is recommended to use EC personas for that purpose, as its faster. Just add --deniable
switch on the commandline when creating or importing this deniable persona as well
as a --name that reflects deniability for you.
This will print or import the private key half of the persona and link it to itself.
As this new persona is linked to itself, whenever you send something to the peer the
signing key is shared with that peer. You can always deny that you sent this message
as your peer could also have signed it (src-id and dst-id inside the message are the same).
Only exchange deniable persona keys across an existing secure (encrypted) channel as it
contains private keying material.
Do not share any key material of this dedicated new EC persona to anyone else. Its only for
this dedicated, deniable, communication peer.
Once a deniable peer is established, you may use it as often and as long as you wish
and as within normal operation.
Deniable op messages are integrity protected and feature all crypto benefits.
Of course for this to work you also want to have fully encrypted your disk to leave no
forensic artifacts and dont want to cite your peer in reply-messages as this proofs
that you were able to decrypt a mail from your peer, e.g. you are hold of a certain
private session key (kex-id). Thats a common mistake people make who dont sign
their emails and think everything is deniable.
Brainkey Personas
Brainkey personas are deniable personas whose key was not generated via RNG
input, but which are derived from a passphrase. They are very similar to the
concept of BTC brainwallets:
$ opmsg --name nobrainer --deniable --salt1 1234 --brainkey1 --newecp
opmsg: version=1.79 (C) 2019 Sebastian Krahmer: https://github.com/stealth/opmsg
opmsg: Enter the brainkey, 16 chars minimum (echoed): mysupersecretnobodyknows
opmsg: creating new EC persona (curve secp521r1)
opmsg: Successfully generated persona with id
opmsg: a6da74f688c375d8 96858709ffd1a25f d42e6523bb89d0f2 45cfe554cf7b4e7c
opmsg: You created a deniable persona.
opmsg: Your persona key was derived from a brainkey. No need to exchange keys
opmsg: with your peer. Your peer just needs to execute the same command as you
opmsg: in order to create the same deniable persona on their side.
opmsg: SUCCESS.
Ofcorse, you should use a secret that nobody can guess or bruteforce, including
upper and lower-case, digits and so on. The idea behind brainkey personas is,
that you share a secret with your peer once you meet, and both sides can
then generate the same personas independently afterwards. There's no need to verify
finger prints or exchange keys. You should use a default config, because
the EC curve that is being used has to be the same on both sides. As well as
the persona hash algorithm and the salt. Both sides may ommit the --salt switch if they
don't fear that folks with a huge hardware budget are going to precompute databases
of brainkey personas to break your key. If you are certain that no other users
are on your box, you may also pass the passphrase as --brainkey1=mysupersecretnobodyknows
on the commandline instead of typing it on stdin. The salt may be known to the public,
its only purpose is to make precomputation infeasable.
Brainkeys will only be used for deniable EC personas. The Kex (aka Session) keys
will nevertheless be generated randomly, just as for other personas.
Brainkey personas can then be used just as normal. Once created, you may just
forget the brainkey, as you will never need to generate it again.
Keys
Now for the coolest feature of opmsg: Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS).
Without any need to re-code your mail clients or add bloat to the
SMTP protocol, opmsg supports PFS by means of (EC)DH Kex out of the box.
For RSA personas, DH Kex is used. For EC personas ECDH Kex is used to derive
the secret, hence the term (EC)DH.
As op-messages are always signed by its source persona,
whenever you send an opmsg to some other persona, a couple of
(EC)DH keys are generated and attached to the message. The remote
opmsg will verify its integrity (as it has this persona imported)
and add it to this persona's keystore. So whenever this remote peer
sends you a mail next time, it can choose one of the (EC)DH keys it has
got beforehand. If your peer runs out of (EC)DH keys, opmsg falls
back to native RSA or EC encryption, depending of the type of persona.
The peer deletes used (EC)DH pubkeys to not
use them twice and the local peer marks used keys with a
used file within the apropriate key-directory. Once again,
sha256 is used by default to index and to (worldwide) uniquely
identify (EC)DH keys.
Attention: If you keep encrypted op-messages in your mailbox,
do not throw away this persona. You wont be able to decrypt these mails
afterwards! Throwing away a persona also means to throw away all keying
material. Thats why opmsg has no switch to erase personas. You have
to do it by hand, by rm-ing the subdirectory of your choice. Thats
easily done, but keep in mind that any dangling op-messages in your
inbox will become unreadable, as all keys will be lost. If you want to
benefit from PFS, you have to archive the decrypted messages and
throw away used keys. After all opmsg is not a crypto container
or a replacement for FDE (which is recommended anyway). opmsg is
about to protect your messages in transit, not on disk.
As of version=1.3 there is a --burn option that nukes used DH
keys from storage. Be aware: you can only decrypt the message once.
Once the message is successfully decrypted, the (EC)DH key that was used
is overwritten and deleted from storage.
cross-domain ECDH
You may skip this section if you are not really paranoid about potentially
backdoored EC curves and how to cope with it.
There is a (yet experimental) feature, which may be enabled by using protocol version 3
and specifying more than one EC curve in the config:
...
version=3
...
curve=brainpoolP384r1
curve=secp256k1
...
Up to three different curves may be specified. For each curve specified, a dedicated ECDH
handshake is made. That is, the key used for encrypting the message is derived from more
than one ECDH Kex. The 'common' ECDH handshake, as seen in all other protocols like TLS etc.,
uses one curve. opmsg by default also uses one curve. But you can use more than one, and
here is why: There is an endless discussion about which curve can be trusted. Some prefer
the NIST curves, some prefer Brainpool and some prefer even other curves. As shown in
various papers, it is possible by evil EC-curve designers to choose the curve domain parameters
in a way that places backdoors into the curve. That is, by knowing certain seeding parameters,
it is possible to create legit looking curves which fullfil all requirements, yet producing
weak secrets, if the attacker knows the evil seeding bits. It is not just a theroretical issue
that evil committee members place backdoors into standards (take the dual-EC-DRBG as a warning).
The idea behind cross-domain ECDH is that, even if we assume all EC curves to contain
backdoored parameters, the knowledge about it is so well protected that it is not shared
across each other. Would the NIST share their backdoor seedings with the russians or vice versa?
Certainly they wouldn't.
In other words, each backdooring party would keep their evil seeding
for themselfs. By using cross-domain ECDH, we exploit this fact and can negotiate a strong secret,
even with potentially backdoored EC curves.
This is for the negotiated session keys. The persona keys (used for signing) are still generated using a single curve.
But you may use cross-doamin ECDH with RSA personas now, by specifying
...
ecdh-rsa
...
in the config.
MUA integration
First, add to your ~/.gnupg/options file the following line:
keyid-format long
Next, there are two possible ways to integrate opmsg into your MUA. For cool
MUAs like mutt, you may build a dedicated .muttrc by adding:
# Add a header so to easy pick opmsg via procmail rules
my_hdr X-opmsg: version1
set pgp_long_ids
# use this listing mode if the 'name' aliases are a substring of the email address
# to avoid huge listings
set pgp_list_pubring_command="/usr/local/bin/opmsg --listpgp --short --name %r"
# otherwise, skip the --name option to list all personas
#set pgp_list_pubring_command="/usr/local/bin/opmsg --listpgp --short"
set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="/usr/local/bin/opmsg --encrypt '%r' -i %f"
set pgp_encrypt_only_command="/usr/local/bin/opmsg --encrypt '%r' -i %f"
set pgp_decrypt_command="/usr/local/bin/opmsg --decrypt -i %f"
set pgp_verify_command="/usr/local/bin/opmsg --decrypt -i %f"
# or set to "^opmsg: SUCCESS\.$" - only required for newer mutt versions
#unset pgp_decryption_okay
and work with your mails as you would it with PGP/GPG before. If you
use a mix of GPG and opmsg peers, its probably wise to create
a dedicated .muttrc file for opmsg and route opmsg mails to
a different inbox, so you can easily work with GPG and opmsg in
parallel. Note that some mutt installs (neomutt) require the -n switch
if you load your own config via -F in order to skip processing of system-wide
config files. This would otherwise overload all of your pgp variables.
But theres also another option: Using opmux:
set pgp_long_ids
# OPMUX_MUA env setting is optional and only required if you use 'pgp_decryption_okay' in newer mutts
set pgp_decode_command="OPMUX_MUA=mutt /usr/local/bin/opmux --passphrase-fd 0 --quiet --batch --output - %f"
set pgp_verify_command="OPMUX_MUA=mutt /usr/local/bin/opmux --quiet --batch --output - --verify %s %f"
set pgp_decrypt_command="OPMUX_MUA=mutt /usr/local/bin/opmux --passphrase-fd 0 --quiet --batch --output - %f"
set pgp_encrypt_only_command="/usr/local/bin/opmux --batch --quiet --output - --encrypt \
--textmode --armor --always-trust -r '%r' %f"
set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="/usr/local/bin/opmux --passphrase-fd 0 --batch --quiet --textmode \
--output - --encrypt --sign %?a?-u %a? --armor --always-trust -r '%r' %f"
set pgp_list_pubring_command="/usr/local/bin/opmux --batch --quiet --with-colons --list-keys %r"
# Be sure to not override it later on. This regex may also be unset.
set pgp_decryption_okay="^opmux: SUCCESS\.$"
opmux is a wrapper for opmsg and gpg, which transparently forwards encryption and decryption
requests to the right program, by checking message markers and persona ids.
This way you may use your opmsg and gpg setup in parallel and the correct (de)crypt program is
automagically invoked. When you send a Mail and an opmsg persona is found for the destination,
opmsg is used for encryption, otherwise gpg is used.
This requires your personas to be properly --linked or having a valid my_id in your
opmsg config.
For enigmail or other MUAs you would just configure the gpg-path to be /path/to/opmux and you
are done (but dont forget the keyid-format long from the first step).
opmux prefers the gpg2 over the gpg binary if both gpg versions are installed. If you
have both gpg versions installed in parallel but for whatever reason want to work with your (old) gpg1 keys,
you have to change the call order in opmux.c gpg() function.
All this however is just for convenience. The more GUI and layering you add to your
opmsg setup, the more chance you have to use wrong destination or source personas. So
be sure to thoroughly test your setup. Again, make sure your personas are properly linked
and you have a clean default persona id assigned in the config.
Cc and Bcc
Since version=1.65 opmsg supports Cc/Bcc from mails, e.g. you may specify more than
one -E persona recipient. However if you used to Cc messages to yourself for
archiving, you must not use --burn because in fact you are referencing session
keys that were initially generated for someone else. Then at times when this peer
send you encrypted messages, you will miss that key.
Please note that in general using crypted mails and Cc is leaking privacy, as
the destination personas see whats in your keystore and which key ids you are
referencing. Its also asking for headache if you did not set up your keystore properly
(linking personas and keeping the link ids up to date, removing dead personas etc.)
If you are operating, you may also consider a dedicated account (machine) with a dedicated opmsg
setup so that you dont accidently sign operational messages with source personas that
link to a publically known profile. Deniable messages wont help in that case.
Config file
You need to setp up your local ~/.opmsg/config to reflect
the source persona you are using when sending your mail via mutt,
unless you specify it via -P on the commandline or used --link:
(linking personas is recommended, see above)
# opmsg sample config
# 1 or 2. Default is 2. The KDF in version=2 is hardened against evil maid attacks.
# Only use version=2 if you know your peer uses opmsg >= 1.60 that can handle version=2.
# Your peer then automatically chooses right version. Theres no config change needed
# for your peer.
version=2
# Using the long format optimizes keystore loading, as an exact lookup takes place,
# and searching the keystore is avoided.
# Also see 'linking personas' in README. It is recommended to use different ID
# for each communication peer.
my_id = 50973f3cfc3e0f3f1a7d4047aa6fa7645510f3b4ddc486a4b72bcacdf3aad570
# default
rsa_len = 4096
# default
dh_plen = 2048
calgo = aes128ctr
# the ID output format (default)

# EC curve to be used for EC personas (prefered since its faster)
# Default. Other choices: secp521r1 (be aware: NIST curve!), brainpoolP320t1, brainpoolP384r1,
# brainpoolP384t1, brainpoolP512r1, brainpoolP512t1
curve = brainpoolP320r1
# Check on decrypt whether the sender (src-id) used a kex-id that was once sent to him
# as a dst-id.
# This allows you detect cross-references for people using different src personas to
# to contact a single persona of yours. This way you can detect/enforce isolation.
# By default its disabled.
