Configure stunnel to clear SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT to prevent connections to unpatched servers.
by Simner, John 19 Jun '14

Hi, I have a requirement for a stunnel client built with openSSL 0.9.8y to not connect to unpatched servers. I know this is a simple matter of using SSL_CTX_clear_options(ctx, SSL_OP_LEGACY_SERVER_CONNECT); Is there any way of configuring stunnel to clear this option? If this is the wrong approach, how can I prevent stunnel connecting to unpatched servers? Thank you for your assistance and look forward to your response.

Marco, I don't think stunnel changes the user ID without a 'setuid = ' statement in the configuration file (as it does not know which user ID to switch to). Are you sure, swat isn't changing the user ID? Does it work without being wrapped by stunnel?

OpenSSL tips header not found - version 5.02
by James Brown 17 Jun '14

17 Jun '14

I’ve installed OpenSSL 1.0.1h (using "./configure darwin64-x86_64-cc”) and now when I go to upgrade stunned from 4.56 to 5.02, configure gives me: checking whether to enable FIPS mode support... autodetecting configure: **************************************** SSL checking for SSL directory... /usr/local/ssl checking /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/engine.h usability... yes checking /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/engine.h presence... yes checking for /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/engine.h... yes checking /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/ocsp.h usability... yes checking /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/ocsp.h presence... yes checking for /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/ocsp.h... yes checking /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/fips.h usability... no checking /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/fips.h presence... no checking for /usr/local/ssl/include/openssl/fips.h... no configure: WARNING: OpenSSL fips header not found checking for FIPS_mode_set... yes configure: FIPS mode detected Do I need to worry about the tips header not being found? Is there anything I should do to fix this? (Running on a Mac OS X 10.7.5 machine). Thanks, James.

Client SSL certificate
by reg14＠rambler.ru 13 Jun '14

13 Jun '14

If a client application is behind NAT, it does not have a real IP address. Certificate field 'common name' is supposed to contain a fully qualified domain name or a real IP address. Could the value of this field be ignored on SSL verification?

Using SNI in stunnel server
by Derek Cole 13 Jun '14

13 Jun '14

Hello, I have the following config on my stunnel server: Dereks-MacBook-Pro:server derek$ cat server.conf ;setuid = stunnel setgid = nogroup foreground = yes pid = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pid debug = 7 output = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.log options = NO_SSLv2 verify = 3 fips=no CAfile=/Users/derek/cert_attempts/root_certs/cacert.pem CApath=/Users/derek/cert_attempts/server/trusted/ [https] cert = /Users/derek/cert_attempts/server/domain.local.pem accept = 443 connect = 80 ;connect is the far-end openvpn connection [exit1] sni = https:exit1.domain.local cert = /Users/derek/cert_attempts/server/exit1.domain.local.pem connect=ovpn1:16081 [exit2] sni = https:exit2.domain.local cert=/Users/derek/cert_attempts/server/exit2.domain.local.pem connect=ovpn2:1195 I am trying to test whether this is working by using openssl s_client with something similar to the following: openssl s_client -connect 10.22.1.219:443 -cert ./server/domain.local.pem -servername exit2.domain.local Maybe I misunderstand - but why do I have to specify -servername there? I thought that if I specified -cert and it matched any of the cert= in my services that are in my stunnel configuration, it would automatically know to do that connect? It seems like if I level off -servername entirely, it always defaults to https no matter what cert I specify, and if I do have -servername, it always goes to that SNI regardless of what cert I use (or whether that cert is even valid). All three of these .pem files were generated and signed by the same CA that I created, and they all contain the public and private key. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks

stunnel 5.02 released
by Michal Trojnara 09 Jun '14

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Users, I have released version 5.02 of stunnel. The ChangeLog entry: Version 5.02, 2014.06.09, urgency: HIGH: * Security bugfixes - OpenSSL DLLs updated to version 1.0.1h. See http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140605.txt * New features - Major rewrite of the protocol.c interface: it is now possible to add protocol negotiations at multiple connection phases, protocols can individually decide whether the remote connection will be established before or after SSL/TLS is negotiated. - Heap memory blocks are wiped before release. This only works for block allocated by stunnel, and not by OpenSSL or other libraries. - The safe_memcmp() function implemented with execution time not dependent on the compared data. - Updated the stunnel.conf and stunnel.init templates. - Added a client-mode example to the manual. * Bugfixes - Fixed "failover = rr" broken since version 5.00. - Fixed "taskbar = no" broken since version 5.00. - Compilation fix for missing SSL_OP_MSIE_SSLV2_RSA_PADDING option.

OpenSSL dlls update for Windows (security advisory 20140605)
by Javier 07 Jun '14

07 Jun '14

Hi, as a mere user I ask, should we expect a new Stunnel version in a few days even it is not an Stunnel vulnerability or is it enough to just update ssleay and libeay with 1.0.1h by us under Windows? Just in case ssleay and libeay are compiled different than official builds. Regards. http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20140605.txt
