Requests to cloud server that requires host header
by Lorne Kates 13 Nov '24

13 Nov '24

(related to Akamai message from before-- but I have better troubleshooting information). I'm tying to route traffic through stunnel to a "cloud" based-endpoint. That endpoint has a static server name-- test.authorize.net. (This is the dev sandbox for auth.net). But if you do an nslookup on test.authorize.net, you'll get back a different servername and IP, because it's so wonderfully "cloud". Stunnel apparently tries to connect to the nslookup value. The server rejects the request because it can't route it back to test.authorize.net. I've tried adding "delay = yes" and "sni = test.authorize.net", but neither work. To see this in action, a simple setup with any accept, then connect to test.authorize.net:443 in client = yes mode. This is what a valid response looks like (13 -- give me the darn merchant ID in a POST): https://test.authorize.net/gateway/transact.dll This is what you'll get if you try to use stunnel (400 invalid url) : https://23.195.204.150/gateway/transact.dll So how can I get stunnel to send the proper Request Header (host: test.authorize.net), make sure it's using http/1.1, etc?

Stunnel & Gmail security
by BOXI31 TEST 16 Oct '20

16 Oct '20

Hi all, To make "Stunnel 5.31" work with Gmail, I have to go in security settings of Gmail and "allow less secure apps to access my account". Is it mandatory ? Is it possible to set Stunnel to access Gmail without lowering it security level ? How ? I checked in log file TLS v1.2 is used by Stunnel but Gmail still consider it as a "less secure app." ! Regards, Steve

Updating stunnel 5.43 to 5.44 fails on Win7prof(32)
by tagtraeumer 15 Dec '17

Hello, removing compression = zlib did fix the starting issue for v5.44, update worked, thanks. Is 'deflate' affected too? Is compression recommended at this stage of mail processing? Thanks once more, regards! > Hello, > The compression is not recommended with TLS because of the CRIME or > BREACH attacks. > From stunnel v 5.44 in Windows the zlib compression is not supported. > So you should remove the option: > compression = zlib > > If you want to use this compression, please place the file zlib1.dll > (from the previous version) in the stunnel / bin directory. > > Best regards, > Malgorzata

[patch] Fix build with LibreSSL
by Piotr Kubaj 06 Dec '17

06 Dec '17

Building against LibreSSL currently fails. Could you commit this patch? It builds fine on FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE against LibreSSL 2.6.3. Since it doesn't change anything for OpenSSL, it should build against it too. -- ______________________________________ / A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore. \ | | \ -- Yogi Berra / -------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||

possibility to delay connect to host
by Paavo Sild 04 Dec '17

04 Dec '17

Hello! I am a bit new to stunnel and while I tried to search the message archive I did not find any possible reference to the issue I try to solve. I am running a bit older version of stunnel as a simple reverse proxy. It accepts incoming TLS connection and opens clear TCP connection to a host specified by "connect" parameter in config. I wander - it is possible to delay the opening of TCP connection to a host until the actual data is received from client? I haven't found any reference to such a possibility in stunnel but thought that it worth to ask from community. The issue is that due to the nature of traffic there are instances then client negotiates the SSL connection but there is no actual data to be sent by the client. By opening the connection to host only when actual data is present would filter out unnecessary connections towards the application. Anybody had such an issue to solve? -- rgds, Paavo Sild --------------------- paavo.sild(a)estcard.ee ---------------------
