VPAT Section 508 Compliance
by Tracy Drake - QI-C 28 Oct '13

28 Oct '13

Hello Stunnel Support! I am seeking a VPAT showing the level Sec 508 compliance so that we can move toward making Stunnel a GSA-approved software. I guess the biggest question is whether or not Stunnel is considered to be section 508 compliant. Please advise as to where/how I can obtain this information. -- Tracy Drake CSM Senior Consultant GSA-FAS FAME Contractor URSA & INFOConnect Support & Training Team Lead 704-987-1211 tracy.drake(a)gsa.gov

Is it usual/recommended to have key and cert in ONE stunnel.pem file?
by Ben Stover 28 Oct '13

28 Oct '13

According to some tutorial pages I generated with OpenSSL a (selfsigned) certificate. This file stunnel.pem contains the certifictae as well as the private key. Is this usual/recommended? Or should user put these two parts in two independent files? Ben

Verify = 4 Fails Yet Again
by Thomas Eifert 25 Oct '13

25 Oct '13

I've just encountered another situation in which verify = 4 fails on a seemingly valid certificate. Since I've previously posted details regarding this issue, I'm only going to post the certificate here. This is the 3rd certificate I've run across in the past 6 months that fails to verify. Can all 3 of the certificates be faulty, or is there an issue with Stunnel or OpenSSL here?

Stunnel Service as other user
by Florian Götz 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi Stunnel users, if I use xinetd to start a service I got the possibility to start the service with a dedicated user. For example: service fex { socket_type = stream wait = no type = unlisted protocol = tcp bind = 123.12.1.12 port = 80 cps = 10 2 * user = fex groups = yes server = /home/fex/bin/fexsrv nice = 0 disable = no } I got some kind of webserver (not apache, nginx etc) that needs to be started with xinetd (the example above). This server should get a SSL tunnel. If I use Stunnel in daemon mode (without jails/chroot) and define a service like this: [https] accept = 123.12.1.12:443 exec = /home/fex/bin/fexsrv execargs = fexsrv stunnel TIMEOUTclose = 2 Everything works fine, except that the server now runs as root. Is there a possibility to set a user for a service? Best regards Florian Götz -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Florian Götz ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dipl.-Inf.

Username and Password in Clear Text
by Peter K. O'Connor 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi, I am using stunnel 4.56 Windows verison. I thought the username and password will *only* be sent to SERVER2, *after* the SSL handshake, with each request. However, the truth is that the Proxy-Authorization header is attached to the request to SERVER1 "CONNECT SERVER2:433 HTTP/1.1", as well. So SERVER1 can see username and password. It is not necessary and safe. Am I missing anything here? Regards, Peter [stunnel] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:8080 connect = SERVER1:3128 protocol = connect protocolHost = SERVER2:443 protocolUsername = username protocolPassword = password

Re: [stunnel-users] Which X.509 certificate types (.crt, .pem, .der .p7c) possible for stunnel and how to import them?

Assume I have already an *.pem cert (for SMTP over STARTTLS transfer). Where (in whcih directory) should I put this cert file?

Which X.509 certificate types (.crt, .pem, .der .p7c) possible for stunnel and how to import them?
by Ben Stover 18 Oct '13

18 Oct '13

Which X.509 certificate types (e.g. .crt, .pem, .der .p7c) are possible for stunnel? Assume I have got such a certificate as separate file (and not retrieved by OpenSSL). How do I import it into stunnel? Do I have to just copy it into (which ?) directory? Does the certifcate file name have to have a certain pattern? Or is stunnel smart enough to read and analyze the content independently from filename? Thank you Ben

How to setup most detailed error log (for one service?
by Ben Stover 17 Oct '13

17 Oct '13

currently I have specified in *.conf file debug = 7 Is this the most detailed log output possible? I miss somehow the transfer protocol lines (what is sent and what received) How do I get this? Is it possible to setup debug = 3 as global variable and to define debug = 7 for just ONE particular service? Ben
