Multiple certificates with same hash
by Marco Göbel 23 Jul '19

23 Jul '19

Hi, we use c_rehash to upgrade client certificates and we have multiple certificates with the same hash (e.g. same subject but different start-/end validity) like: ee98f073.0 ee98f073.1 ee98f073.2 The man-page description for the CApath option seems to be correct what stunnel will do: >Note that the certificates in this directory should be named XXXXXXXX.0 >where XXXXXXXX is the hash value of the DER encoded subject of the cert. It seems only certificates with the ending .0 is used by stunnel and the others certificate hashes with higher numbers are never used/read. Can you confirm? Any idea how to use all certificates with stunnel? BTW. we tested with version 4.56 and latest 5.5 Regards, Marco

feature ? authorizing only given certificates ?
by fmgre-dell＠yahoo.fr 15 Jul '19

15 Jul '19

Hello My european organization is using a certificate chain which signs tens of thousands of user certificates. My local organization counts 300 users ... and i only want these 300 to get in the IT system. I'd like to know if there is a way to restrict the connection to a subset of certificates ( for example based on a list of authorized emails which are written in the certificate ) Sincerely Fred

OCSP problem - wrong cert validated
by Mark Currie 11 Jul '19

11 Jul '19

Hi, I am having a problem using OCSP with Stunnel. client: stunnel-5.55, server: stunnel-5.49, both using openssl-1.0.2k-fips. When I use the openssl ocsp command it works fine e.g.: openssl ocsp -issuer idca-rootca.pem -CAfile idca-rootca.pem -cert server-cert.pem -url http://10.0.0.166:40040 Response verify OK server-cert.pem: good Wireshark: OCSP request contains the server cert serial number, and OCSP response returns "certStatus: good(0)". However, when I use Stunnel the OCSP lookup fails (Connection reset by peer), and in the Stunnel log I get: LOG3[0]: OCSP: OCSP_basic_verify: ocsp_vfy.c:166: error:27069070:OCSP routines:OCSP_basic_verify:root ca not trusted Wireshark: OCSP request now contains the issuer (idca) instead of the server cert serial number, and the OCSP response returns "certStatus: unknown (2)". I have tried various combinations of cert and CA pem files e.g. server cert on its own, then including idca, then including both idca and rootca. I have also tried all combinations of CA cert, even including all certs in it. I am testing Stunnel using SSH over TLS and here are the configs: Stunnel client config: [ssh] CAfile = idca-rootca.pem cert = client-cert.pem key = client-key.pem accept=40010 connect=10.0.0.166:40010 verifyPeer = yes OCSP = http://10.0.0.166:40040 Stunnel server config: [sshd] CAfile = idca-rootca.pem cert = server-cert.pem key = server-key.pem accept = 10.0.0.166:40010 connect = 22 Appreciate any help with this problem.

Academic doubt about firewall bypass
by Brent Kimberley 09 Jul '19

Which scenario did you have in mind? [HTTP CLIENT] -->[STUNNEL CLIENT]--><whatever>-->[STUNNEL SERVER]-->[HTTP Server] OR[HTTP Client] -->[Forward-proxy client]-> [STUNNEL CLIENT]--> <whatever>-->[STUNNEL SERVER]-->[REVERSE-PROXY server]--><whatever>--> [HTTP SERVER ] From: Hugo Marello <hugo.marello(a)gmail.com> To: stunnel-users(a)stunnel.org Hello guys, I'm new to using stunnel but I find it quite a powerful tool. I'm doing a POC on how we can bypass our firewall even with DPI, and chose to use stunnel for an extra layer of cryptography. You don't have to worry about access to any VM mentioned here. Here is my scenario: [CLIENT BROWSER] -->[STUNNEL CLIENT]-->[FIREWALL]-->[STUNNEL SERVER]-->[REVERSE PROXY]-->[FREE INTERNET] So far I succeeded in getting HTTP working using stunnel CONNECT protocol to the firewall and going all the way through. The problem is when I try to access HTTPS, the connection get set to the stunnel server but it keeps waiting for something. Double checked all the logs, firewall can't discern, stunnel server get the connection, reverse proxy also get the socket connection. My hypothesis is that stunnel client gets the CONNECT from the browser and discard it, it uses its own way to connect to the firewall, instead of encrypting the CONNECT all the way through. As it may seems, I need a way to send 2 CONNECT packages. Does anyone know how can I proceed? Follow my configs: client = yes output = /var/log/stunnel4/stunnel.log debug = 7 [bypassclient] accept = 4000 connect = firewall.example:3128 protocolHost = destination.com:443 protocol = connect requireCert = no verifyChain = no verifyPeer = no -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [bypassserver] accept = 0.0.0.0:443 connect = reverseproxy.com:8888 cert = /etc/ssl/cert.pem key = /etc/ssl/key.pem ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you all in advance, already digging throw the source code (quite lost tough), Hugo

I was thinking something more simple like the first scenario. [HTTP?CLIENT] -->[STUNNEL CLIENT]--><whatever>-->[STUNNEL SERVER]-->[HTTP Server] But the end would be an HTTPS server, which would require a CONNECT to get things going. So: [HTTP Client] -->[STUNNEL CLIENT]--> <whatever>-->[STUNNEL SERVER]-->[REVERSE-PROXY server]--> [HTTPS SERVER] Em ter, 9 de jul de 2019 às 07:00, <stunnel-users-request(a)stunnel.org> escreveu: > Send stunnel-users mailing list submissions to > stunnel-users(a)stunnel.org > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://www.stunnel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/stunnel-users > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > stunnel-users-request(a)stunnel.org > > You can reach the person managing the list at > stunnel-users-owner(a)stunnel.org > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of stunnel-users digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Re: [stunnel-users] Error during linking Stunnel 5.55
by Eric Eberhard 09 Jul '19

The whole 32 bit vs 64 bit thing is a pain. On Windows and Linux you have to load all kinds of unobvious things. On AIX it just works. Code from 1988 (when I lost source code for half a dozen programs) still works on current machines. Why the others make it SO HARD is beyond me. In AIX old code works. One flag – saying you want 64 bit – is all you need to add to the Makefile. Otherwise is just works as always. It took me MONTHS to figure out how to make Linuc work – had to yum 32 bit, 64 bit, a compat set, etc. Nightmare. Wish people would consider keeping things compatible like IBM does. Ditto on new features. Any new feature you merely need to add a flag, and all is good. Otherwise the old ones keep working. An example is POSIX. With IBM/AIX you could do things the old way, or set a flag for POSIX. Yes, we have had the same source (with updates, I did do the POSIX updates) since 1988. Never a problem. Partly, I think, because they don’t deprecate ANYTHING. Use the old routines if you like. Or not if you chose. Your problem is not having ALL of the required libraries! That is it. Finding what you need is the challenge.
