Nuke adjusted time from validation (attempt 2)

dergoegge commented at 1:26 pm on November 28, 2023: member

This picks up parts of #25908.

The use of adjusted time is removed from validation code while the warning to users if their clock is out of sync with the rest of the network remains.

Having a rolling set of 10 time offsets from every outbound connection we make (full outbounds, block-relay-only, extra block-relay-only, feelers?) seems somewhat risky: at present, you’ll get odd behaviour if a high-proportion of the first 100 outbound peers you connect to have a different time; with this change, you’ll get a warning if the last 10 peers you randomly connect to have a dodgy view of the time?

Maybe consider making this conditional on IsManualOrFullOutboundConn() instead; that way it only updates rarely for things we’re really trying to connect to, and isn’t mostly made up of random peers we’re briefly sampling?

should we make this addition overflow safe?

dergoegge commented at 11:56 am on December 4, 2023:

The idea is that m_index is always set to the next index in m_offsets that gets written to (so a value out of [0, N)) and we just assume that the initial N samples were 0, which is why the median is immediately computed out of N.

I could change it to always increase m_index instead and add new offsets by doing m_offsets[m_index % N] = new_offset, in which case your suggestion would allow us to compute the median more “accurately” while we haven’t seen N samples yet. I’m not sure though if that is an improvement,. e.g. do we want to issue a warning if only the first outbound connection has a offset larger than our threshold?

dergoegge commented at 11:58 am on December 4, 2023:

Hm yea I guess… I could also just remove support for even Ns from this class.

naumenkogs commented at 8:31 am on December 5, 2023:

do we want to issue a warning if only the first outbound connection has a offset larger than our threshold?

This is the main question I guess. So, with the current code, having 4 peers would never trigger it, right? Because median will always be 0.

i won’t mind that either, but ideally with an in-function comment.

Yes and this sort of (on accident) mimics how/when we trigger the warning on master at 5 or more samples: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/dde7ac5c704688c8a9af29bd07e5ae8114824ce7/src/timedata.cpp#L77

ariard commented at 2:23 am on December 4, 2023:

I think one advance in term of robustness of this local time monitoring mechanism could be to add feeler ’s time offset (ConnectionType::FEELER) to reserved slots in the index (e.g +3 on the 10 full-outbound connections). Those peers connections are already triggered at regular interval, which is not necessarily the case of outbound peer topology if the peers are stable and performant.

I guess a NTP-attacker could silently time shift the local clock of a victim, without this warning logic ever triggering if no new outbound or manual connections are ever opened during the exploitation.

dergoegge commented at 3:23 pm on December 6, 2023:

I see your point but I think I would like to keep discussion about improving the warning condition to a future PR. The current adjusted time mechanism has the same flaw and is even worse as it stops sampling entirely after 200 samples.

Maybe we can collect some stats on how often outbound connections rotate and how many samples from which connections are actually useful to inform such a change.

I will add the release note.

I would recommend to add an explicit release note, inciting nodes operators to monitor this new warning, especially if they’re running time-sensitive apps. Exploiting NTP to target bitcoin has been suggested both in NTP security literature and the time-dilation paper (I’ve never seen or heard any in the wild, contrary to some BGP attacks in other cryptos though I believe this is fairly practical). E.g

 0new local clock monitoring 
 1==========================
 2
 3The notion of adjusted time relying on the median of other network nodes clocks is removed.
 4Instead, a rolling sample of the time offset from local clock of each of the last 10 outbound
 5peers is maintained and the median computed. If the yielding result is more or less than
 670 min, a node warning is issued.
 7
 8This warning can be consumed by a call to `getblockchaininfo`. If the node is backing an
 9application or protocol with stringent time-sensitive requirements and high funds at stake
10(e.g a lightning or time-enabled wallet)  it is recommended to periodically run a monitoring
11job and in presence of warning automatically notify the operator.

Changed the approach.

This now still deletes all the adjusted time code and removes it from consensus code but keeps the warning condition for a large median time offset as it is on master. Improvements to the warning can be done in a follow up.

This should now be a very straight forward review, since we don’t need to discuss a new warning mechanism.

Looking at the diff between the two versions, I see these changes:

which peers are taken into account (FEELER, ADDRFETCH, BLOCKRELAY are also considered)
the 199-bug is brought back
fixed addition overflow; an alternative would divide each element by 2 and then add without overflow risk, it saves us the sloppiness int64_max/2; but i don’t care that much)

Not sure i see keeps warning condition for a large median time offset as it is on master.

Generally, while I think it’s fine to leave (1) for the latter PR, re-introducing the bug (2) is somewhat unfortunate:

it’s just a bad practice
even if the bug was anything useful before, it won’t be anymore since all we keep is
i actually think the original diff is easier to review than the bug re-introduction :)

(3) should be kept for either version of course.

Removing adjusted time from consensus is a big win. Having time samples received from peers be involved in consensus checks is not great and not effective against NTP based attacks (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25908#issuecomment-1264632475, #25908 (comment)). The warning itself is not as interesting to me but most of the review on both #25908 and this PR is about the warning and its threshold.

I don’t want changing the warning (small win) to distract from removing adjusted time from consensus (big win).

Removing adjusted time from consensus is a big win. Having time samples received from peers be involved in consensus checks is not great and not effective against NTP based attacks (#25908 (comment), #25908 (comment)). The warning itself is not as interesting to me but most of the review on both #25908 and this PR is about the warning and its threshold.

Currently, we’re adjusting our local clock from the median of the first 199 outbound peers we’re connecting to (only the first 199 due to the oddness bug in AddTimeData()). In case of the occurence of a NTP-based attack (e.g a malicious network delay on traffic between the local system NTP client and its timeservers), this median-adjusted time mechanism can generate a salvatory warning towards the node operators (the "Please check that your computer's date and time are correct!"). However, this mechanism comes as a security benefit only if the attack is active when you start your local bitcoind and until the first 199 outbound peers connection have been sampled (which might last for hours / days, given our only 10 outbound connections slots at the moment). So there is a robustness benefit brought by the current adjusted time mechanism and this is has been one of my main concern brought in #25908.

On the other hand, this mechanism can allow your outbound peers topology to correct your local time (as used for some consensus rules validation in ContextualCheckBlockHeader() ) in the boundaries of -/+ DEFAULT_MAX_TIME_ADJUSTEMENT. This exploit assumes you’re able to corrupt or compromise 100 outbound peers (as it’s a median), which has to be done in considerations of all our hardenings in AddrMan and some low-hashrate capabilities. Those 2 elements in my appreciation present a very high-bar (at least compared to state-of-art practical NTP-based attacks).

As such, I reasonably think maintaining the warning mechanism is valuable at the very least to maintain current robustness of our consensus validation code in face of NTP attacks. This always give the chance of node operators noticing time anomalies from their logs, which is welcome robustness if you’re operating a time-sensitive bitcoin infrastructure imo. I think we should be better to keep a large buffer of sampled outbound peers (e.g in the order of 100 outbound peers as right now) for this current change itself, and fix the oddness bug.

For sure, we can add additional robustness mechanisms in follow-up PRs, e.g “random drop” of sampeld peers time offset to add uncertainty in the eyes of adversaries targeting neutralization of the warning mechanism or including feelers connections in sampled offsets.

Another source of concern, the ajdusted-time is implemented by other full-nodes with at least some other real-world economic traffic. If we’re modifying our consensus-definition of time, and they stay on the old one, this could be source of consensus discrepancies in some edge scenarios. True, this could be a source of concern for non-upraded Bitcoin Core nodes.

From a deployment viewpoint, my recommendation is to notify on the maling list or bitcoin forums other bitcoin full-nodes implementations of this change, and some “rough” deployment timeline in function of Bitcoin Core’s own 27.0 or 28.0 release schedules. I think there is a lesson to be learnt from the old Bitcoin 0.8 LevelDB upgrade.

I think the calculation is wrong: the average of the 2 middle elements should be taken in case of an even number of elements.

yes🤦

UB: sorted_copy being an array of size N, I think we’d be sorting uninitialized values if m_index < N?

No, m_offsets is not uninitialized

stickies-v commented at 1:32 pm on December 18, 2023:

The array is initialized, ~~but the items are not~~, and afaik int64_t doesn’t have a default constructor?

Ah cool, didn’t know, thanks. Still, having default (0-)values in sorted_copy seems like it would lead to an incorrect median calculation?

sr-gi commented at 6:41 pm on January 2, 2024:

In order to be consistent with how the code used to be what needs updating is the code and not the comment, doesn’t it? Otherwise, we will be computing the median as low as with 4 elements when we used to need 5 before.

I don’t know what the motivation to require 5 data points previously was (why not 4 or 3?), but my impression by reading the comments in this PR is that we are trying no to change anyting with respect to how the median is computed and leave that for a followup

Concept ACK, and code LGTM 87c577e9742d7154826c755a7fe320f34fd54c81 (but needs rebase).

It is unfortunate that this is not a strict security improvement (by increasing the dependency on the local system clock, which can also be tampered with), but not having consensus rely on a majority of arbitrary peers (phrased very well here) is a worthwhile improvement and in my view probably safer. A wrong system clock should be pretty visible (and cause other issues) anyway, and hardening the system (clock) is not really a task for Core.

That said, I think having a good warning system is helpful, if indeed manipulating a user’s system clock is feasible (which I’m not an expert on), but I’m happy to be convinced otherwise on this.

perhaps this is worthy a discussion on the ML or irc meeting.

I agree.

My understanding of what nuking network-adjusted time affects:

block validity and the timestamp of newly created block (template)s
our assessment of whether we’re close to the chaintip (via PeerManagerImpl::CanDirectFetch())
HeadersSyncState::m_max_commitments which represents the maximum number of headers we accept from a peer

I think the the addition should be done before the division to handle rounding effects better, like it’s done in timedata. If the two relevant offsets are, for example, 3 and 5, the median with this code would be 3.

stickies-v commented at 7:51 pm on January 2, 2024:

The current approach addresses overflow concerns as per #28956 (review)

mzumsande commented at 8:10 pm on January 2, 2024:

ok, I see. Still, having a function that returns 3 as the median of {3,5} and 5 as the median of {4,6} seems inconsistent, couldn’t we explicitly check and handle overflows instead?

sr-gi commented at 8:28 pm on January 2, 2024:

I was going to suggest doing sorted_copy[m_index / 2] + sorted_copy[m_index / 2 - 1]) / 2)) before seeing this comment since the current approach feels a bit strange. If we keep this I’d say at least add a comment pointing out this is to prevent overflow

stickies-v commented at 1:31 pm on January 3, 2024:

We already assume the median can be rounded down, so I don’t think extra rounding changes any assumptions, and therefore I wouldn’t overcomplicate things, it’s just not worth it imo. I’d be okay with casting to a double first, but it’s not strictly better as we’re trading off precision at the higher ranges (which I also don’t think is important at all).

0        if (m_index % 2 == 0) {
1            return (0.5 * sorted_copy[m_index / 2]) +
2                   (0.5 * sorted_copy[m_index / 2 - 1]);
3        }

mzumsande commented at 3:28 pm on January 3, 2024:

Just a code comment would be fine too. I agree that the rounding doesn’t matter at all in this context (and it’d also be fine not to calculate the mean in the even case at all), but code tends to get copied and reused.

This PR now only removes adjusted time from validation code while keeping all the code for the warning in place as is. A follow-up can change the warning (as it has many problems) but this PR will focus on the removal of adjusted time from consensus.

Re-implementing the same warning seemed unnecessary (even if it was less code) and prone to bugs.

I think keeping this diff small and focusing on just the (non-warning) functional behaviour change is the best approach to reduce friction to get more high quality feedback on whether this is indeed a safety improvement (I lean towards yes). Code LGTM ff9039f6ea876bab2c40a06a93e0dd087f445fa2, but I think this warrants a release note since we are changing some security assumptions, making users aware of that seems like the way to go imo.

This PR now only removes adjusted time from validation code while keeping all the code for the warning in place as is. A follow-up can change the warning (as it has many problems) but this PR will focus on the removal of adjusted time from consensus.

Re-implementing the same warning seemed unnecessary (even if it was less code) and prone to bugs.

Does this mean that the adjusted time is now being collected and used exclusively to raise the warning?

This was the case before the force-push, too. In this current approach, the diff is much smaller so review can focus more on whether we’re okay removing network-adjusted time, instead of on the adjusted time calculation refactoring.

After a few attempts, I haven’t found a way to trigger a consensus fork through adjusted time. It’s not like this could “infect” half of the network (legacy) through block propagation or something. Because of that, if there was/is a legacy way to exploit it (say an overflow in nTimeOffset calculation), this new code won’t make it worse.

I would prefer the commit message to contain a rationale for the change, though. It’s currently empty.

I now believe that the network-adjusted time implementation in master does not offer any security guarantees against an attacker trying to get a node out of consensus. The existing NTP vulnerabilities (which seem to be very real, even if currently apparently not exploited too often) can just as well be used by an attacker when network-adjusted time is used, given that we limit the network adjustment to 70 minutes. As such, this PR does indeed seem like a strong improvement to me.

Ensuring an accurate clock is a system responsibility, and should not be a Bitcoin Core concern. Removing this logic simplifies the code, and removes the assumption that we need a majority of honest outbound nodes. Moreover, it seems trivial to implement an external daemon that monitors Bitcoin network time and e.g. adjusts the local clock or shuts down Bitcoin Core when a large offset is detected, for users that wish to harden their system this way.

Unclear what has been tested actually (e.g setting sampled time of peers in the past and playing with blocks timestamps). That said I think it’s a very edge scenario, and most susceptible to affect non-upgraded things like btcd.

NTP has its own data / control plane. Our peers connections going through TCP. You might compromise NTP stack but not TCP and vice-versa.

With argument of that kind we can remove assumevalid / assumeutxo and say perf issues poor host not core concern. More we’re able to compensate weakness from network infrastructure level, better core node ecosystem stronger.

Moreover, it seems trivial to implement an external daemon that monitors Bitcoin network time and e.g. adjusts the local clock or shuts down Bitcoin Core when a large offset is detected, for users that wish to harden their system this way.

I’ll let as an exercise to the reader to define what should be the authoritative source of time of this external monitoring daemon :) My belief we should conserve a a warning system based on other peers nversion announcements. @dergoegge I think it can be good if you notify btcd and other validation software carrying a minimum of economic traffic of this change, at least to avoid future issues like the bip68 consensus discrepancy you found recently.

Yes, this is exactly what this pull request did. See also the description, which said: “while the warning to users if their clock is out of sync with the rest of the network remains.”

That I know. It was more related to using an external daemon and naively using the same NTP source than your Bitcoin Core instance. There is no such thing as Bitcoin network time, just a sampling of peers nversion time. Yes it works if this external daemon consumes Core warning messages and takes corrective actions on this. And even that the correction frequency have to be weighted carefully (are you scaling the correction frequency on internal clock itself or received peers msgs ?)

FYI, some NTP attacks were actually on targeting NTP pool monitoring infrastructure, see this paper.
