Stunnel on Android 7.x not working?
by John Appleseed 14 Oct '17

14 Oct '17

Hello, I have trouble with stunnel on Android 7.x.. I'm trying to connect to OpenVPN server through SSL tunneling with stunnel. On phone I'm using stunnel installed in Termux and OpenVPN. Everything is correctly configured, Im using the same config on other devices in same network and it works perfectly. I tried it with different devices with Android 7.x and it is not working at all :( Immediately after succesful connection I am receiving: TLS fd: Software caused connection abort (103) TLS socket closed (SSL_read) And it is still reconnecting again and again with the same error. I also tried it with stunnel downloaded directly from stunnel.org site.. Anyone with new Android who have working stunnel? Where can be the problem? Example stunnel.conf on Android: socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 debug = debug [openvpn] client = yes accept = 1337 connect = *****.ddns.net:993 cert = /path/to/stunnel.pem and on server: chroot = /var/lib/stunnel4 pid = /stunnel.pid output = /stunnel.log setuid = stunnel4 setgid = stunnel4 socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 [openvpn] client = no accept = 993 connect = 127.0.0.1:1194 cert = /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem Example stunnel.log is in attachment. Thank you very much

No certificate or private key specified

Hi, After overcoming some initial more obvious problems I have still been unable to get this client's stunnel configured correctly. "No certificate or private key specified" - is this significant? Stunnel.conf looks like the below: debug = 2 output = stunnel.log CAfile=.\ca-verisign.crt client=yes verify=0 sslVersion = TLSv1.2 options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 [TRD] accept=16002 connect= our.ip.com:443 [INV] accept=16003 connect= our.ip.com:443 Stunnel output log below 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Found 1 ready file descriptor(s) 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: FD=276 ifds=r-x ofds=--- 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: FD=284 ifds=r-x ofds=--- 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Dispatching signals from the signal pipe 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Processing SIGNAL_RELOAD_CONFIG 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Running on Windows 6.1 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG5[main]: Reading configuration from file stunnel.conf 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG5[main]: UTF-8 byte order mark detected 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG5[main]: FIPS mode disabled 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Compression disabled 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Snagged 64 random bytes from C:/.rnd 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Wrote 1024 new random bytes to C:/.rnd 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: PRNG seeded successfully 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG6[main]: Initializing service [TRD] 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Ciphers: HIGH:!DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: TLS options: 0x03000004 (+0x03000000, -0x00000000) 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: No certificate or private key specified 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG4[main]: Service [TRD] needs authentication to prevent MITM attacks 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG6[main]: Initializing service [INV] 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Ciphers: HIGH:!DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: TLS options: 0x03000004 (+0x03000000, -0x00000000) 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: No certificate or private key specified 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG4[main]: Service [INV] needs authentication to prevent MITM attacks 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG5[main]: Configuration successful 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Closing service [TRD] 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Service [TRD] closed (FD=284) 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Service [TRD] closed 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Closing service [INV] 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Service [INV] closed (FD=276) 2017.10.12 10:53:22 LOG7[main]: Service [INV] closed We tried giving the certification a hard location but still it seems unable to find it.

User has recently installed v5.4.2 on a windows machine and gets this error: [cid:[email protected]] Downloaded the .exe file from the website, installed into a D: drive folder (not the C: program files x86 folder), edited the config file to what we have advised countless users in the past and added the verisign crt to the same folder. Has reinstalled a couple of times to no avail. I have searched on the net for help but nothing specific to STunnel. Can anyone advise?

Comments on daily DH Parameters regeneration...
by Taed Wynnell 06 Oct '17

06 Oct '17

We've been experiencing pain due to the daily STunnel regeneration of the DH Parameters. On our single-core machines in the field, this process will use 100% of the CPU for possibly an extended time. This interferes with other tasks that the machine is intended for. What's odd is that this process time ranges wildly, ranging from as low as 3 seconds to 90 minutes, even on the same machine. We see this behavior on all (thousands) of our machines, now that we know what to look for (the "Cron jobs completed in" trace in stunnel.log). We now know that we can set the DH Parameters in the configuration file, and that's what we'll be doing going forward. (Unless someone has another idea to offer.) I'd like to suggest some ideas for the future since I've seen on the mailing list that there are others who have run into this issue: * If the DH Parameter regeneration would run at Idle priority instead of Normal priority, it would not be nearly as noticeable, in that the CPU usage would still be there, but it wouldn't impact other services. The recomputation may be done in a separate thread, if so, this is straight-forward. * If there were a configuration file parameter to specify the regeneration interval. It would default to 24 hours (which is the current behavior), but could be set to a longer interval, a shorter interval for extreme security, or even to never. STunnel would still regenerate at the time of the service starting, unless a fixed DH is found in the configuration file. If a fixed DH were specified in the configuration file, that would avoid the service start computation and the interval would default to never. If both a fixed DH and the interval were specified in the configuration file, it would use the specified interval and recompute only after that interval.

Using Chrome directly as an STunnel Client to connect to an STunnel Server
by Dipen Doshi 05 Oct '17

05 Oct '17

Hello, I am new to STunnel and I am running into a problem. Here is my setup. I use an ASUS router with Merlin firmware. I have STunnel installed via Entware on this router. Running "stunnel -version" gives me: stunnel 5.41 on mipsel-openwrt-linux-gnu platform Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.0.2k 26 Jan 2017 Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 TLS:ENGINE,FIPS,OCSP,PSK,SNI Global options: RNDbytes = 64 RNDoverwrite = yes Service-level options: ciphers = FIPS (with "fips = yes") ciphers = HIGH:!DH:!aNULL:!SSLv2 (with "fips = no") curve = prime256v1 debug = daemon.notice logId = sequential options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 sessionCacheSize = 1000 sessionCacheTimeout = 300 seconds stack = 65536 bytes TIMEOUTbusy = 300 seconds TIMEOUTclose = 60 seconds TIMEOUTconnect = 10 seconds TIMEOUTidle = 43200 seconds verify = none ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I use my own server certificate signed by my own CA. This cert has the proper SANs with correct DNS/IP entries. I use this server certificate both for my router's HTTPS web gui and for the "cert" and "key" files listed in the config file below. Also, the "CAfile" in the config is pointing to my Root CA's certificate. My Root CA is also imported in my Windows box's certificate store. I can directly access my router's web gui from LAN side via these ports: 80 (HTTP), 2000 (HTTPS). Router's LAN subnet is 10.49.49.0/24 and the router's WAN IP is 10.76.5.3 (it is double NAT for testing, this router is for testing) Also, STunnel is running as a server accepting connections on port 443 (all interfaces) on the router. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I want to use Chrome directly as an STunnel client on my Windows box. So, I don't run STunnel on my Windows box in the client mode. SITUATION 1: WORKS FINE!! -- PURPOSE: Use Chrome to connect to "https://WAN_IP:443" This should forward to the router's port 80 (HTTP protocol used). My STunnel config file on the router has: setuid = nobody setgid = nobody foreground foreground = yes syslog = yes debug = 7 [Test-Service] accept = 443 connect = 10.49.49.1:80 requireCert = yes verifyChain = yes CAfile = /mnt/Merlin/entware/etc/stunnel/ca.crt cert = /mnt/Merlin/entware/etc/stunnel/server.crt key = /mnt/Merlin/entware/etc/stunnel/server.key SITUATION 2: DOES NOT WORK!! -- PURPOSE: Use Chrome to connect to "https://WAN_IP:443" This should forward to the router's port 2000 (HTTPS protocol used). There is only one change from the Situation 1 config file. The line for "connect" changed to "connect = 10.49.49.1:2000) This does not work. Note that I can directly access my router's web gui over https with "https://LAN_IP:2000" via Chrome, with no warnings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My thoughts: So, my current path is Chrome (Acting as STunnel Client) --> STunnel Server (on the router) --> Router's Web GUI. The "Chrome --> STunnel" Server connection is fine. Chrome prompts for private key and STunnel server correctly shows this incoming Chrome connection. The problem is the "STunnel Server --> Router" relay that uses HTTPS protocol. 1. STunnel does not like HTTPS to HTTPS relay. HTTP to HTTPS works, but not HTTPS to HTTPS. 2. STunnel server on my router is a client to my router's web gui. Is STunnel verifying the certificate of my router's HTTPS certificate? 3. If the above answer is yes, my guess is that STunnel sees a self signed certificate for this router and kills the connection? 4. How do I tell STunnel server to ignore certificate warnings for a remote connection, like when connecting to this router? 5. Or how do I explicitly tell STunnel to trust my Root CA while making this connection to my router? I couldn't find any options in STunnel for this. Regards, Dipen Doshi

Bug: Modifying configure.ac results in error
by Reschke, Sven (VWIF G-TS/P) 22 Sep '17

22 Sep '17

Hallo, I've encounter a problem when editing the configure.ac. I've upgraded to Stunnel 5.42, the problem wasn't existent with Stunnel 5.41. The normal operation is that "./configure" and "make" will run without an error. So far, so good. Now, if I edit the configure.ac, running again "./configure" and "make", "make" will report: CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh <path_to_stunnel_sources>/stunnel-5.42 /auto/missing aclocal-1.14 -I m4 cd . && /bin/sh <path_to_stunnel_sources>/stunnel-5.42 /auto/missing automake-1.14 --gnu CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh <path_to_stunnel_sources>/stunnel-5.42 /auto/missing autoconf configure.ac:4: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_NOTICE If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. configure.ac:23: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DEFINE make: *** [configure] Error 1 Here it doesn't matter what I change in configure.ac. Even the slightest modification results in the error. After some investigation, running "make" with "-d" showed that it will call auto/missing, because of the newer version of configure.ac. Comparing aclocal.m4 before and after calling "make" shows, that mainly the lines added between the version 5.41 and 5.42 are missing now (lines #23 - #741). As I'm not so familiar with the whole compile process, I found a simple hack, which solves the problem for the moment: Adding these missing lines to a new file named m4/acinclude.m4. After that, compiling, installing and running Stunnel works fine. Can someone verify? If you have questions, I'll try my best to answer them :) Best Regards, Sven Reschke Embedded System SW Developer G-TS/P
