Christian Heimes c64a1a61e6 bpo-38270: Check for hash digest algorithms and avoid MD5 (GH-16382)
Make it easier to run and test Python on systems with restrict crypto policies:

* add requires_hashdigest to test.support to check if a hash digest algorithm is available and working
* avoid MD5 in test_hmac
* replace MD5 with SHA256 in test_tarfile
* mark network tests that require MD5 for MD5-based digest auth or CRAM-MD5

bpo-33618: Enable TLS 1.3 in tests (GH-7079)
TLS 1.3 behaves slightly different than TLS 1.2. Session tickets and TLS
client cert auth are now handled after the initialy handshake. Tests now
either send/recv data to trigger session and client certs. Or tests
ignore ConnectionResetError / BrokenPipeError on the server side to
handle clients that force-close the socket fd.

To test TLS 1.3, OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre7-dev (git master + OpenSSL PR
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/6340) is required.

Jamie Davis 0e6c8ee235 bpo-32981: Fix catastrophic backtracking vulns (#5955)
* Prevent low-grade poplib REDOS (CVE-2018-1060)

The regex to test a mail server's timestamp is susceptible to
catastrophic backtracking on long evil responses from the server.

Happily, the maximum length of malicious inputs is 2K thanks
to a limit introduced in the fix for CVE-2013-1752.

A 2KB evil response from the mail server would result in small slowdowns
(milliseconds vs. microseconds) accumulated over many apop calls.
This is a potential DOS vector via accumulated slowdowns.

Replace it with a similar non-vulnerable regex.

The new regex is RFC compliant.
The old regex was non-compliant in edge cases.

* Prevent difflib REDOS (CVE-2018-1061)

The default regex for IS_LINE_JUNK is susceptible to
catastrophic backtracking.
This is a potential DOS vector.

Replace it with an equivalent non-vulnerable regex.

Also introduce unit and REDOS tests for difflib.

bpo-32947: OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 / TLS 1.3 fixes (#5663)
* bpo-32947: OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 / TLS 1.3 fixes

Misc fixes and workarounds for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 and
TLS 1.3 support. With OpenSSL 1.1.1, Python negotiates TLS 1.3 by
default. Some test cases only apply to TLS 1.2. Other tests currently
fail because the threaded or async test servers stop after failure.

I'm going to address these issues when OpenSSL 1.1.1 reaches beta.

OpenSSL 1.1.1 has added a new option OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT for TLS
1.3. The feature is enabled by default for maximum compatibility with
broken middle boxes. Users should be able to disable the hack and CPython's test suite needs
it to verify default options.

bpo-31399: Let OpenSSL verify hostname and IP address (#3462)
bpo-31399: Let OpenSSL verify hostname and IP

The ssl module now uses OpenSSL's X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() and
X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_ip() API to verify hostname and IP addresses.

* Remove match_hostname calls
* Check for libssl with set1_host, libssl must provide X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host()
* Add documentation for OpenSSL 1.0.2 requirement
* Don't support OpenSSL special mode with a leading dot, e.g. ".example.org" matches "www.example.org". It's not standard conform.
* Add hostname_checks_common_name

  Issue2564: Prevent a hang in "import test.autotest", which runs the entire test
  suite as a side-effect of importing the module.

  - in test_capi, a thread tried to import other modules

  Issue 2408: remove the _types module
  It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
  when they can easily be obtained with python code.
  These expressions even work with Jython.

  I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
  at least this change makes it simpler.

  - Issue #2550: The approach used by client/server code for obtaining ports
    to listen on in network-oriented tests has been refined in an effort to
    facilitate running multiple instances of the entire regression test suite
    in parallel without issue.  test_support.bind_port() has been fixed such
    that it will always return a unique port -- which wasn't always the case
    with the previous implementation, especially if socket options had been
    set that affected address reuse (i.e. SO_REUSEADDR, SO_REUSEPORT).  The
    new implementation of bind_port() will actually raise an exception if it
    is passed an AF_INET/SOCK_STREAM socket with either the SO_REUSEADDR or
    SO_REUSEPORT socket option set.  Furthermore, if available, bind_port()
    will set the SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE option on the socket it's been passed.
    This currently only applies to Windows.  This option prevents any other
    sockets from binding to the host/port we've bound to, thus removing the
    possibility of the 'non-deterministic' behaviour, as Microsoft puts it,
    that occurs when a second SOCK_STREAM socket binds and accepts to a
    host/port that's already been bound by another socket.  The optional
    preferred port parameter to bind_port() has been removed.  Under no
    circumstances should tests be hard coding ports!

    test_support.find_unused_port() has also been introduced, which will pass
    a temporary socket object to bind_port() in order to obtain an unused port.
    The temporary socket object is then closed and deleted, and the port is
    returned.  This method should only be used for obtaining an unused port
    in order to pass to an external program (i.e. the -accept [port] argument
    to openssl's s_server mode) or as a parameter to a server-oriented class
    that doesn't give you direct access to the underlying socket used.

    Finally, test_support.HOST has been introduced, which should be used for
    the host argument of any relevant socket calls (i.e. bind and connect).

    The following tests were updated to following the new conventions:
      test_socket, test_smtplib, test_asyncore, test_ssl, test_httplib,
      test_poplib, test_ftplib, test_telnetlib, test_socketserver,
      test_asynchat and test_socket_ssl.

    It is now possible for multiple instances of the regression test suite to
    run in parallel without issue.
