stunnel 5.20 issue using "--with-threads=ucontext"
by Michael Gebis 21 Jul '15

21 Jul '15

Hello. We recently upgraded from stunnel 5.10 to 5.20. We compile using "--with-threads=ucontext" and with this flag, compilation of 5.20 fails in two places. Both failures seem like minor oversights. Here is a proposed patch to fix the two failures. This patch is against 5.20, but I just checked the most recent 5.21b2 and it appears to require the same changes. Thanks!

stunnel 5.20 released
by Michal Trojnara 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear Users, I have released version 5.20 of stunnel. The ChangeLog entry: Version 5.20, 2015.07.09, urgency: HIGH * Security bugfixes - OpenSSL DLLs updated to version 1.0.2d. https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20150709.txt * New features - poll(2) re-enabled on MacOS X 10.5 and later. - Xcode SDK is automatically used on MacOS X if no other locally installed OpenSSL directory is found. - The SSL library detection algorithm was made a bit smarter. - Warnings about insecure authentication were modified to include the name of the affected service section. - A warning was added to stunnel.init if no pid file was specified in the configuration file (thx to Peter Pentchev). - Optional debugging symbols are included in the Win32 installer. - Documentation updates (closes Debian bug #781669). * Bugfixes - Signal pipe reinitialization added to prevent turning the main accepting thread into a busy wait loop when an external condition breaks the signal pipe. This bug was found to surface on Win32, but other platforms may also be affected. - Fixed removing the disabled taskbar icon. - Generated temporary DH parameters are used for configuration reload instead of the static defaults. - LSB compatibility fixes added to the stunnel.init script (thx to Peter Pentchev). - Fixed the manual page headers (thx to Gleydson Soares).

keyfile is not encrypted
by Madhava Gaikwad (madgaikw) 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

Hello, I am asking too much, but keyfile with stunnel is required to be stored on disk (I am aware about file permission applied) and is in plain text. Is there any way we can encrypt the keyfile and then store, and then subsequently ask stunnel to obtain the decryption key somehow and then use it. For encryption/decryption of the key, stunnel (or some other program) can give network based ability(service over socket) to provide the key so key can be encrypted by the third party(who generates the config for stunnel). Stunnel config option will specify key is encrypted and therefore stunnel knows why and how to decrypt it. Of course you will ask me to implement my own custom algo for this, but I am checking if anybody has thought about it or in such case, how they have worked on it. I was told, there is also basic level of FIPS compliance requirement that requires key not to be stored on disk in plain text irrespective of file permission. Thank you. Madhava

help on options and sslversion
by Madhava Gaikwad (madgaikw) 13 Jul '15

13 Jul '15

Hi, I am using stunnel 5.03 version. I want to understand how the config option "sslVersion " and "options " works. The problem I am trying to solve is: I want to enable say only particular ssl connect methods, for example sslv3 and TLs1.2. I am not able to do it. For me if I do below setting: Options = all Option = NO_SSLv2 Option = NO_SSLv3 Option = NO_TLSv1 Option = NO_TLSv1.1 Option = NO_TLSv1.2 Still I see all methods are being enabled. I removed Option = all, but no effect. What is expected behavior? Also, The sslVersion seems enables either particular sslversion, or else all the versions. So wondering what can be the escape mechanism. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thank you. Madhava

"make check" tries to build Windows binary on Unix
by Dagobert Michelsen 13 Jul '15

13 Jul '15

Hi, I just tries to build stunnel 5.20 on Solaris 10 Sparc and noticed a strange behaviour during „make check“ which yields in a try to build Windows executables: > dam@unstable10s [unstable10s]:/home/dam/mgar/pkg/stunnel/trunk/work/solaris10-sparc/build-isa-sparcv8plus/stunnel-5.20 > gmake check > Making check in src > gmake[1]: Entering directory '/home/dam/mgar/pkg/stunnel/trunk/work/solaris10-sparc/build-isa-sparcv8plus/stunnel-5.20/src' > gmake stunnel.exe tstunnel.exe > gmake[2]: Entering directory '/home/dam/mgar/pkg/stunnel/trunk/work/solaris10-sparc/build-isa-sparcv8plus/stunnel-5.20/src' > i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -c -I/usr/src/openssl-1.0.2d-i686/include -mthreads -fstack-protector -O2 -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic -Wformat=2 -Wconversion -Wno-long-long -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -DUNICODE -D_UNICODE -o tls.obj tls.c > /bin/bash: i686-w64-mingw32-gcc: command not found > Makefile:1206: recipe for target 'tls.obj' failed > gmake[2]: *** [tls.obj] Error 127 > gmake[2]: Leaving directory '/home/dam/mgar/pkg/stunnel/trunk/work/solaris10-sparc/build-isa-sparcv8plus/stunnel-5.20/src' > Makefile:1054: recipe for target 'check-am' failed I think this comes from these lines in src/Makefile.am: > # Just check if the programs can be built, don't perform any actual tests > check_PROGRAMS = stunnel.exe tstunnel.exe Essentially the „check“ phase could just not be called during build, but it would be cleaner to not bail out on Unix.

I don't think such tricks are possible with BSD sockets. BTW: You can also change BUFFSIZE in common.h and rebuild stunnel.
