Hi, My stunnel server is unable to send data correctly to my application running the same machine. This happens when the client is run from windows platform. When client is run from UNIX everything works fine. The Stunnel Server log file says: 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG7[23141:8]: rssvr connecting 127.0.0.1:28091 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG7[23141:8]: Remote FD=1 initialized 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG7[23141:8]: TCP_NODELAY option set on remote socket 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG3[23141:8]: SSL_read: Connection reset by peer (131) 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG5[23141:8]: Connection reset: 0 bytes sent to SSL, 13 bytes sent to socket 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG5[23141:8]: linger (local): Invalid argument (22) 2006.06.05 11:54:54 LOG7[23141:8]: rssvr finished (0 left) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------- Does anybody know the cause of the problem?

decryption failed or bad record mac
by Trent Townsend 07 Jun '06

07 Jun '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've emailed about this once already, but am just giving a *little* more info. It seems similar problems with SSL proliferate the web. The problem is below (message from the client and server posted). I thought it may be a bug reported with SSL and zlib (which a fix isn't due out until the next version of OpenSSL). However, I can successfully start up a openssl s_server and talk to it with a s_client, so I think that eliminates OpenSSL. Has anyone seen this before (I'm sure this is the case) and figured it out? Client: SSL_connect: 140943FC: error:140943FC:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad record mac Server: SSL_accept: 1408F455: error:1408F455:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:decryption failed or bad record mac I'm using stunnel 4.11 (tried 4.15 also) and Openssl 0.9.8a.

Processing during CRL expiry and refresh
by Nagasundaram, Sekhar 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

All: I have 2 questions: 1. Is there a way to have Stunnel continue processing and accepting connections after the CRL expiry? Currently it gives a "revoking all certificates" error and stops accepting connections. 2. Is there a configurable parameter through which we can have the CRL list refresh itself such that 1 above does not happen? Much Thanks in advance.. Sekhar

Hi , I am trying to set up stunnel to accept unsecure calls on port 1001 from inside and secure calls on port 1000 from internet. All calls are forwarded to machin B The configuration like this: secure --> 1000 machine A unsecure --> 1002 machine B unsecure --> 1001 machine A unsecure --> 1002 machine B Is this setup possible i stunnel? PS. I use "stone repeater" and this rules are easy to setup. Best Regards, Robert Bator

stunnel and bad rsa signature
by Trent Townsend 30 May '06

30 May '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On a test environment, I successfully had stunnel securing MySQL traffic between 2 systems using a verify level of 3. However, with the production system and what I would call an identical setup (albeit with new certificates), I get the following errors (see log below.) The version I'm running of stunnel is 4.11. I saw the "bad rsa signature" message in the server's output, so I regenerated the private key file to be sure I'd used the right one. Everything seems to be in order, but it will not work.

Problem getting stunnel to chroot on Suse 10
by Paul Stepowski 29 May '06

29 May '06

Hi list, I'm using stunnel package that comes standard with Suse 10.0 stunnel 4.10 on i686-suse-linux-gnu UCONTEXT+POLL+IPv4+LIBWRAP with OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005 I can tunnel ports over ssl using stunnel but the chroot directive doesn't seem to be working. E.g. my pid file is being created under / rather than /var/lib/stunnel-syslogng. The other paths in the config file are taken by stunnel as relative to / rather than the chroot directory. What am I missing? Here's my stunnel config. I'm not passing any other flags when running stunnel. ---snip--- client = no #debug = 7 #foreground = yes chroot = /var/lib/stunnel-syslogng setuid = stunnel setgid = nogroup pid = /stunnel.pid #output = stunnel.log socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 #compression = rle #options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS #verify = 2 #CApath = /certs #CAfile = /certs/stunnel.pem #CRLpath = /crls #CRLfile = /etc/stunnel/crls.pem cert = /var/lib/stunnel-syslogng/certs/stunnel.pem ---snip--- Thanks, Paul

Re: [stunnel-users] stunnel-4.15 segfaulting and looping under FreeBSD-CURRENT

The first, successful (!) call to run_client() seems to leave the ssl context in an undefined state which makes the following calls to run_client() segfault in the forked child which in turn produces the core file. My guess is, that it's not actually supposed to loop if the call to run_client() is successful. Reverting client.c to roughly 4.14 fixes the problem for me. A patch is attached. Any insights and a more permanent fix would be highly appreciated. BTW: I configured stunnel with --with-threads=pthread. By default, ucontext is detected, which is broken in stunnel-4.14 as well. After finishing, 4.14 hangs in s_poll_wait waiting for -1 seconds on 0 fds (!?). I can provide debugging log and gdb output if needed. -- bye, Michael

DNS Spoofing

Hello All, >From Website I came to know Stunnel can help in DNS spoofing. Can someone redirect to know how this can be achieved.
