I've seen other having the same issue without resolution so far... But we do have the same issue: stunnel[7886]: segfault at 21 ip 00007f70aa1efcea sp 00007f6fa7797978 error 6 in libpthread-2.12.so[7f70aa1e5000+17000]

Re: [stunnel-users] Stunnel traffic fails to go via proxy set in

Hi Jai, If your proxy supports the HTTP CONNECT method, you can try revising your settings to this: [KG_Self-Checkout] key = client.pem cert = client.pem client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:5001 connect = wproxy.qut.edu.au:3128 protocolHost = ap01.alma.exlibrisgroup.com:6443 TIMEOUTclose = 0 TIMEOUTconnect = 200 TIMEOUTidle = 86400 sslVersion = TLSv1.2 protocol = connect Only the connect protocol supports using the protocolHost option. If this isn't supported by your proxy, you can try using Privoxy or Polipo between stunnel and your proxy. Socat is another option as well.

Extensions when negotiating TLS
by Tom (AST) Watson 04 Nov '19

04 Nov '19

Well, I thought it would be "easy", but maybe not. I have an application (#1) that uses http2, and isn't encrypted. No problem here. Now I have another application (#2) that insists on using https to talk to application #1. So I gleefully setup stunnel to connect the two. Well, application #2 starts talking to stunnel with a "Client Hello" packet, and it includes an extension "Application Layer Protocol Extension" of "h2". While not versed in the minutia, I take this that the client (application #2) wants to talk "http2" to the server (application #1). OK, that is what I want. The problem is that stunnel doesn't respond with ANY "Application Layer Protocol Extension" indicating acceptance of this request in its "server hello". This means that application #2 fails in its negotiation. No joy! Now I know that application #1 will nicely talk http2, but how do I get stunnel to communicate this to application #2 (as encrypted http2). Am I missing something in my (pretty simple) configuration file? Thanks. -- Tom Watson (I'm at work now) Thomas.3.watson(a)raytheon.com

Debian 9 static build
by Chris Maciejewski 01 Nov '19

01 Nov '19

Hello, I am trying to build stunnel 5.55 on Debian 9 x64 statistically against latest OpenSSL build from source. The system already has openssl and libssl ver. 1.1.1b installed via apt-get , but I want to build against OpenSSL 1.1.1d instead. What I do is: 1. Build and install OpenSSL: $ cd /usr/src/openssl-1.1.1d $ ./config -fPIC --prefix=/opt/openssl $ make depend && make && make install 2. Build and install Stunnel $ cd /usr/src/stunnel-5.55 $ ./configure --with-ssl=/opt/openssl --enable-static $ make && make install Both 1 and 2 completes OK with no errors, however when I run: $ /usr/local/bin/stunnel [.] Compiled with OpenSSL 1.1.1d 10 Sep 2019 [.] Running with OpenSSL 1.1.1b 26 Feb 2019 .... and indeed when I do: $ ldd /usr/local/bin/stunnel libssl.so.1.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.so.1.1 (0x00007f1083b4f000) libcrypto.so.1.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.1 (0x00007f1083668000) above shows dynamic .so libs are used, rather than static libs libssl.a and libcrypto.a Any suggestions as to what is wrong with my process above and how to make static build of Stunnel to use non-system OpenSSL very much appreciated. Kind regards, Chris

The error I get on the client is "handshake failure" and the stunnel server drops this log message: SSL_accept: 1408A0C1: error:1408A0C1:SSL routines:ssl3_get_client_hello:no shared cipher Note that I have disabled all but TLSv1.2 on the server. Removing this restriction does not change the behavior. 1. I have multiple stunnel configuration files on this server. Actually, I have 4 of them. Connections to ports defined in 2 of these files are not connecting successfully. Connections to ports defined in the OTHER two files *are* connecting successfully. The configurations seem to follow a pattern: those using RSA certificates as the server-certificate are working as expected, while those with EC server-certificate are failing. When I say "working" versus "failing", I mean that this command will give me a cipher suite and master key, but still drop the connection because I'm not providing a client-certificate for these tests: $ openssl s_client -connect host:port 2. I have a Java-based service that *is* able to connect through this stunnel instance just fine. It's running on a recent version of Java 8. My CLI client (not OpenSSL) is also running the same version. My CLI client cannot connect. *weird* In both cases, I am using EC client certificates, but the certificates are different from each other. Both of these certificates are trusted by the server. 3. When using OpenSSL 1.0.2t, I *can* connect, get the list of acceptable client certificates, etc. even without providing a client certificate. When using OpenSSL 1.1.1d, I can *not* connect. So perhaps the inside/outside networking thing I was thinking the problem might be is incorrect. AFAIK, both versions of OpenSSL should be able to use EC certificates and cipher suites.

Strange connection failure in one environment
by Christopher Schultz 25 Oct '19

25 Oct '19

All, I've been using stunnel in two environments (dev, prod) for a long time without any problems. Recently, my dev environment started acting funny and I can't connect to it from outside the box. Can someone take a look and let me know if you have any suggestions for where to look for a problem? Both environments have the following things in common: 1. Hosted in Amazon EC2, no load-balancer in the way 2. Configuration requires client-certificate to connect 3. All certificates are valid, self-signed, and properly-trusted by both sides 4. TLS configuration has been locked-down to TLSv1.2, selected cipher suites, FIPS mode=off 5. All versions are the same: stunnel 4.56 w/OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips The production (working) environment happens to be i686 and the development environment happens to be x86-86, but I don't believe that is relevant. When I use e.g. "openssl s_client" to connect to the production environment and I *do not* provide a client certificate, I am able to perform the initial TLS handshake, get a cipher suite negotiated, etc. and then the connection fails because I didn't provide the client certificate, of course. I *can* see in the handshake the list of allowed client certificates. When I do the same in development, I get a handshake failure. No allowed client certificates are shown. No nothing. If I connect on localhost to the dev server, I get what I'm expecting: allowed client certificates are listed, connection is closed because I'm not using the client certificate. Connecting from another host gets my a handshake failure. Again, there are no load-balancers or anything between the outside and the EC2 instance. I'm connecting as directly as it's possible to connect. The box definitely allows incoming connections on the port I'm trying to use; the AWS security group is configured correctly. I have tried dropping ALL security configuration on the dev server's stunnel.conf such as client-cert requirements, TLS protocols, cipher suites, etc. and I get the same behavior every time. I'm starting to think that it has nothing to do with my stunnel.conf configuration at all, but I'm at a loss as to where to look, next. Any ideas? -chris

stunnel : user identification in mutual auth
by Denis Polushin 22 Oct '19

22 Oct '19

Hi All, Haven't found the answer for this issue. The scheme is : TLS-client <==tls==> stunnel-server <==open==> App-server In user session stunnel-server perform authorization for client with its certificate (verify=2) and send request further to App-server. How does App-server can identify user in this session? To grand permissions. Ideally it would be good to know CN or EKU of user certificate. Is it possible? Thanks a lot!! Denis

segfault with v5.55
by Mark Brookes 30 Sep '19

30 Sep '19

Re: [stunnel-users] stunnel with OpenSSL engine: reload leaks HSM connections
by Lynch, Andrew 27 Sep '19

27 Sep '19

I’ve been digging around the code and I am no longer sure whether stunnel is at fault or it is actually an issue in OpenSSL! load_key_engine() in ctx.c shoves the key into the SSL context – SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey(section->ctx, pkey). So the key should be freed when that context is disposed of. The SIGHUP ends up in case SIGNAL_RELOAD_CONFIG of signal_pipe_dispatch(), which calls options_free() [stunnel.c line 830]. Eventually there is an SSL_CTX_free() call, but it looks like this does not actually free the private key. Ephemeral keys are freed and loads of other stuff, but not the private key associated with the certificate. I may try to build a hacked OpenSSL on Monday to see what happens if SSL_CTX_free also frees the private key… Regards, Andrew.

I don’t suggest it as a final solution – although for me it works great and we have customers exchanging 2-4 million XML documents per day with no performance issues – BUT no matter what it is a good debugging tool. Inetd gets all the initial connections and closes them when done. It might or might or might not be involved with the HSM at all. You might also look at the process table (some form of ps) and grep for stunnel and relatives and see if they are hanging around. In theory, if a process dies, it “should” close it’s connections. If it is floating in space it will not. Inetd will kill the process – at least on Centos and AIX and SCO – for sure and for certain.
