The following is an educated guess: Open connections are open file descriptors, and fork()/exec() do not close open file descriptors. Thus, stunnel is inheriting the open connection. And, since it knows nothing about it, it does not close it or anything like that. So it's not that it activelly listens on it, but only that it does not bother to stop. You might check this theory by trying to connect to the port *after* apache is shut down. If I'm right you should get no answer at all. So, the solution is to have the file descriptors close when exec'ing stunnel. PHP or apache might have some option somewhere to do that (look for "close on exec" or something similarly named), but if not, you might have to write some sort of wrapper to do it. It's a messy thing, because AFAIK there's no clean way to do it short of for (i = 0; i < [some-hopefuly-large-enough-value]; i++) close(i); where the [large-enough-value] is determined by your system's file descriptor limit and your desire not to loop all the way to 2^32 or something. -- Rodrigo i-think-this-time-i-answered-the-question-asked Gallardo GPG-Fingerprint: 7C81 E60C 442E 8FBC D975 2F49 0199 8318 ADC9 BC28

stunnel automatically listening to extra ports: BAD
by Alan Pinstein 11 Jan '08

11 Jan '08

Hi All- I am using stunnel to secure a connection between a local python script using telnetlib and a custom sockets-based server requiring SSL, from local port 4449 to remote port 4449. This is done via: stunnel /opt/www/domains/admin.showcasere.com/showcase/classes/ opensrs-php/stunnel-app.conf where the conf file is: > client = yes > pid = /opt/www/domains/admin.showcasere.com/runtime/stunnel.pid > debug = 7 > [telnet] > accept = 4449 > connect = admin.hostedemail.com:4449 Functionally, everything works for my application, but I am experiencing a bad side-effect. stunnel is ALSO setting up listeners on HTTP and HTTPS ports, and when my daily logrotate scripts run and HUP apache, stunnel steals the web server's ports and the server won't come back up! I had 7 hours of downtime today because of this. I've done a bunch of debugging and can't figure out what's going on. I have only one guess: stunnel automatically listens on any ports that the process calling stunnel is listening on, in some sort of attempt to seamlessly add SSL to existing daemons. I can't find any docs or tell from the source code, but it's the only idea I can't rule out... Here is the debug log of the startup of stunnel (which is run from an apache/php script): Jan 11 13:10:13 bigwoody stunnel: LOG5[13964:3086333632]: stunnel 4.14 on i386-redhat-linux-gnu

You sent the private keys too - you shouldn't do this. You should create new keys when done debugging this problem. I saw only 2 keys - the CA and the stunnel.pem. Your configuration specifies 3 keys, the CA, stunnel.pem, and is attempting to verify the SSL client (browser? something else) against the CA via the 'verify=' line. What is the SSL client? Did you generate a key for it? Because your config is requiring the SSL client authenticate itself, and Stunnel is dropping the connection because that phase isn't working correctly. -- Brian Hatch "So, what's the problem?"

Can you shoot the public keys of the client (which is not on this machine) and the ca.pem and the public key from userkey.pem (which is actually the server's key - you may wish to rename.) There are three pems involved: * the CA key (private) and cert (public) in ca.pem * the stunnel server's key (private) and cert (public) in userkey.pem. ('userkey' is a bad name here.) * the client's key (private) and cert (public) on 192.168.1.5. Can you send the public parts here so I can verify that they're signed by the appropritate folks? -- Brian Hatch "Everybody's cute! Systems and Everybody's cute! Security Engineer Even me.

Missing Something Basic on Config
by Steve 29 Dec '07

29 Dec '07

Using stunnel for NNTPS. Stunnel starts without any apparent problems (log looks normal), but simply doesn't intercept packets from my news reader. There is no activity in the log and sniffing the packets shows everything happening on 119. My understanding of the concept is that there are no configuration changes needed in the newsreader; IOW, I leave it pointing to the unsecured NNTP server with the port set to 119. I fear I'm missing something very obvious. BTW, I've confirmed the ability to use NNTPS with this particular server by using Outlook Express, which is compatible with NNTPS. Version: 4.20; I used the Windows binary. Running XP. Config: ; Some performance tunings socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 ; Some debugging stuff useful for troubleshooting debug = 7 output = stunnel.log ; Use it for client mode client = yes ; Service-level configuration [nntps] accept = 192.168.1.101:119 connect = secure.news.easynews.com:563 Log: 2007.12.28 22:24:46 LOG5[6640:6644]: stunnel 4.20 on x86-pc-mingw32-gnu with OpenSSL 0.9.8d 28 Sep 2006 2007.12.28 22:24:46 LOG5[6640:6644]: Threading:WIN32 SSL:ENGINE Sockets:SELECT,IPv6 2007.12.28 22:24:46 LOG5[6640:5936]: No limit detected for the number of clients 2007.12.28 22:24:46 LOG7[6640:5936]: FD 196 in non-blocking mode 2007.12.28 22:24:46 LOG7[6640:5936]: SO_REUSEADDR option set on accept socket 2007.12.28 22:24:46 LOG7[6640:5936]: nntps bound to 192.168.1.101:119

by fg 28 Dec '07

28 Dec '07

Hello all I use stunnel on a server with a stunnel.pem file generated with openSSL,( this file is not certified with verisign or others...) Each time i launch outlook express on a client a have a warning saying that the server is using a certificate who can't be verified.... I have to close this warning and after all is ok... Question Is it possible to skip this warning? perhaps with a public key approuved in outlook express??? thanks for help --------------------------------- Ne gardez plus qu'une seule adresse mail !
