certs

X.509 certificate generation and management code. We use four seperate certificate chains (4 CAs):

• SliverCA - Used to encrypt and authenticated client-side C2 channels between the server and the Slivers. Uses both ECC and RSA certificates depending on the use case.
• OperatorCA (was ClientCA) - Used to sign certs that authenticate and encrypt the mutual TLS connection between the operator and the server.
• ServerCA - Used to secure server-side C2, the ServerCA public key is embedded into the sliver binaries.
• HTTPSCA - Used to generate self-signed HTTPS certificates (that are not used to encrypt C2 data)

Certificates are all stored CA-specific Badger databases managed by the db package. The key is the common name of the certificate and the value is a JSON object (i.e. CertificateKeyPair) that contains the key type (RSA or ECC), certifcate, and private key.

ACME

The package can also interact with Let's Encrypt (ACME) services to generate certificates that are trusted in the browser (alternative to HTTPSCA). These certificates are used with the HTTPS servers/listeners, but not used to encrypt any C2.
