# TLS-ALPN-01
With `tls-alpn-01`-type verification Let's Encrypt (or the ACME-protocol in general) is checking if you are in control of a domain by accessing
your webserver using a custom ALPN and expecting a specially crafted TLS certificate containing a verification token.
It will do that for any (sub-)domain you want to sign a certificate for.
Dehydrated generates the required verification certificates, but the delivery is out of its scope.
### Example nginx config
On an nginx tcp load-balancer you can use the `ssl_preread` module to map a different port for acme-tls
requests than for e.g. HTTP/2 or HTTP/1.1 requests.
Your config should look something like this:
```nginx
stream {
server {
map $ssl_preread_alpn_protocols $tls_port {
~\bacme-tls/1\b 10443;
default 443;
}
server {
listen 443;
listen [::]:443;
proxy_pass 10.13.37.42:$tls_port;
ssl_preread on;
}
}
}
```
That way https requests are forwarded to port 443 on the backend server, and acme-tls/1 requests are
forwarded to port 10443.
In the future nginx might support internal routing based on custom ALPNs, but for now you'll have to
use a custom responder for the alpn verification certificates (see below).
### Example responder
I hacked together a simple responder in Python, it might not be the best, but it works for me:
```python
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import ssl
import socketserver
import threading
import re
import os
ALPNDIR="/etc/dehydrated/alpn-certs"
PROXY_PROTOCOL=False
FALLBACK_CERTIFICATE="/etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem"
FALLBACK_KEY="/etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key"
class ThreadedTCPServer(socketserver.ThreadingMixIn, socketserver.TCPServer):
pass
class ThreadedTCPRequestHandler(socketserver.BaseRequestHandler):
def create_context(self, certfile, keyfile, first=False):
ssl_context = ssl.create_default_context(ssl.Purpose.CLIENT_AUTH)
ssl_context.set_ciphers('ECDHE+AESGCM')
ssl_context.set_alpn_protocols(["acme-tls/1"])
ssl_context.options |= ssl.OP_NO_TLSv1 | ssl.OP_NO_TLSv1_1
if first:
ssl_context.set_servername_callback(self.load_certificate)
ssl_context.load_cert_chain(certfile=certfile, keyfile=keyfile)
return ssl_context
def load_certificate(self, sslsocket, sni_name, sslcontext):
print("Got request for %s" % sni_name)
if not re.match(r'^(([a-zA-Z]{1})|([a-zA-Z]{1}[a-zA-Z]{1})|([a-zA-Z]{1}[0-9]{1})|([0-9]{1}[a-zA-Z]{1})|([a-zA-Z0-9][-_.a-zA-Z0-9]{0,61}[a-zA-Z0-9]))\.([a-zA-Z]{2,13}|[a-zA-Z0-9-]{2,30}.[a-zA-Z]{2,3})$', sni_name):
return
certfile = os.path.join(ALPNDIR, "%s.crt.pem" % sni_name)
keyfile = os.path.join(ALPNDIR, "%s.key.pem" % sni_name)
if not os.path.exists(certfile) or not os.path.exists(keyfile):
return
sslsocket.context = self.create_context(certfile, keyfile)
def handle(self):
if PROXY_PROTOCOL:
buf = b""
while b"\r\n" not in buf:
buf += self.request.recv(1)
ssl_context = self.create_context(FALLBACK_CERTIFICATE, FALLBACK_KEY, True)
newsock = ssl_context.wrap_socket(self.request, server_side=True)
if __name__ == "__main__":
HOST, PORT = "0.0.0.0", 10443
server = ThreadedTCPServer((HOST, PORT), ThreadedTCPRequestHandler, bind_and_activate=False)
server.allow_reuse_address = True
try:
server.server_bind()
server.server_activate()
server.serve_forever()
except:
server.shutdown()
