"Reverse" tunneling with stunnel.
by C. Petro 20 Jul '18

20 Jul '18

I have a client who is setting up a logging infrastructure involving a couple of DMZs forwarding logs into central logging points. They have to pass compliance audits (SOX, PCI at least) and have some rather specific desires in regards to how they want the log traffic to move, and which servers *initiate* the connections. Which is to say they want the internal servers to set up tunnels to the DMZ servers and then the forwarders use that tunnel to deliver logs back. Lemme see if I can ascii art this: central1----------------------------------dmz1 \____________________ / _____________________\ _/ / \ central2----------------------------------dmz2 Something like that. Central1=10.10.1.2 Central2=10.9.1.2 DMZ1=172.18.0.5 DMZ2=172.20.0.5 Firewalls are in effect. I have gotten it set up so that I can initiate a connection FROM Central1 to DMZ2. [Tunnel_to_DMZ2] client = yes accept = 3002 connect = 172.20.0.5:5000 And [Tunnel_from_Central1] accept = 5000 connect = 3000 Like I said, I can open a tunnel from Central1 to DMZ2, but can't get traffic to pass backwards--I get a message in the log saying the session is closed. Is it possible to set stunnel up in a "reverse tunnel" mode--one where the connect is initiated from one end, but the other does most of the message passing? What I am missing? Thanks, Petro.

I found it after looking once more in the log file. PSK client configured for identity "ï»¿user2" (the identity in the secrets.txt is user2:secretkey, somehow those three weird characters are added on windows) I got around it by copying the secrets.txt file to the server so that the secrets.txt on the server also begins with "ï»¿user2" but I suspect it's a bug.

Is there a way to specify certificate content in stunnel config
by Hari 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

Hi, I have a requirement where in i cannot specify the certificate and/or private key details as "files" to stunnel configuration, owing to the location and/or file system availability for stunnel to access them. Is there a way to specify the actual certificate content in stunnel configuration (similar to other parameters like port numbers etc.,) so that the same can be leveraged. ThanksHari | | Virus-free. www.avg.com |

Hello! I am trying to set up stunnel from a windows box to a VPS. I have working tunnels from a FreeBSD box to the VPS. On the VPS, the config looks like: [socks_server] protocol = socks PSKsecrets = /my/secret/location/secrets.txt accept = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx [ssh] PSKsecrets = /my/secret/location/hecrets.txt accept = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx connect = 127.0.0.1:22 On the windows box, the config looks like this: [socks_client2] debug = 7 client = yes PSKsecrets = c:\my\secret\location\secrets.txt accept = 127.0.0.1:1080 connect = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx The log on Windows looks like this: 2018.07.19 13:13:09 LOG5[main]: stunnel 5.48 on x86-pc-msvc-1500 platform 2018.07.19 13:13:09 LOG5[main]:

Loss of ability to use Stunnel-Blat, and a solution
by Roger Bohl 10 Jul '18

10 Jul '18

Early in 2018, around the time when I upgraded my system to Windows 10, the Stunnel and Blat files that had worked fine with my Vista PC would not work with the new PC. However, the "bug" turned out to be unrelated to the change in operating systems, but rather an "upgrade" to Gmail: Coincidentally, about that time, Gmail evidently decided to stop accepting e-mails from apps deemed "a less secure app", including Stunnel-Blat, with Blat then displaying messages: *** Warning *** The SMTP server did not accept Auth PLAIN value. *** Warning *** Are your login userid and password correct? *** Warning *** The SMTP server did not accept Auth LOGIN PASSWD value. Only a failure message sent to my "backup e-mail address" led me to explore this as a possible cause for what I had thought was, but turned out not to be, a Stunnel-Blat problem. Gmail has an option to suppress this heightened security feature, and when I activated this option, my Stunnel-Blat tools immediately began to function as intended. While I was at first able to enable Gmail to "Allow access from "less secure accounts," I have been unable to get through Gmail options consistently to turn this on and off and share this info with others. (I would welcome instructions that work consistently.) I would also welcome guidance on how to include Stunnel-Blat as a specific alllowed app, without having to enable Gmail to enable *all* "less secure apps" Roger Bohl

Re: [stunnel-users] Intermittent error in 042_inetd
by Eric S Eberhard 10 Jul '18

The 50% could be because the server side is not fully updated - we have this problem a lot with very large companies that should know better (and in reality should overlap instead of changing over - meaning allow SSLv3 for 3 months or something while also accepting TLSv2. A very good way to test is to get a telnet program. Then "telnent localhost port#" - the port # being the port number stunnel is running on. This will remove all variables except stunnel and allow you to see the output. It could be you are connecting fine and failing some other authentication like a login - which you can see often with telnet. And set your firewall to not allow telnet on port 23. Also, we have found stunnel MUCH more reliable under inetd (if you are on Unix of course) than as a stand-alone server. A little performance loss that is unnoticeable to us - big customers exchange 2-4 million XML documents a day (using stunnel) so inetd is definitely not the most efficient way, but the machines are so darn fast it seems not to matter. The certificates have become more painful but I have never had to use an official signed one. I make my own with openssl. However, there are intermediate ones that are needed from whomever you connect to if they have a signed certificate - say from Verisign - you may need your certificate and Verisigns, etc - in a chain. I use "cacert" to set to a large file of .pem certificates - which I simply download from the Web (available all over, some work, some don't. When you get one that works . then use it. You can modify them by adding anything not found in the file. Supposedly the cacert file I have now is good till 2020 for the big names. You can also use openssl to get the certificate from the server - just ask and you shall receive. It should have the entire chain. I used to have on massive cacert for everyone and it was getting out of hand. As tacky as it is, I just make a cacert.pem file for every connection (e.g. Walmart, Fedex, Target, whatever). This allows working connections to keep working while you fiddle with a tricky one.

I should also point out that the cipher suite is related to openssl version stunnel is compiled with. Again, we had customers that connected with TLSv1.3 and then could not negotiate a cipher suite ... leading to lost connection. Make sure you update openssl first -- then compile stunnel.

Stunnel connection issue?
by Spies, Will 09 Jul '18

09 Jul '18

I've been trying to get Stunnel to work for some time now. I have avoided using the mail list - but I see no recourse now. I think I've tried just about every setting I could find. I appear to be getting a connection issue - but as you will see the log just doesn't indicate clearly what is going on. The behavior is my client is failing to get a connection through Stunnel to my backend. The log appears to be closing a socket (but can't tell which one frontend or backend). Nothing wrong happens up until a client connects - 443 binds fine and later a connection to my backend 554 appears to connect find. If someone/anyone can help direct me to how to trouble shoot this better I would greatly appreciate it. As you will see in the log - the client attempts twice to get through. An excerpt of my log and the conf is below. /etc/stunnel.conf: socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 output = /var/log/stunnel.log debug=7 [rtsp] cert = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem
