stunnel and bad rsa signature
by Trent Townsend 30 May '06

30 May '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On a test environment, I successfully had stunnel securing MySQL traffic between 2 systems using a verify level of 3. However, with the production system and what I would call an identical setup (albeit with new certificates), I get the following errors (see log below.) The version I'm running of stunnel is 4.11. I saw the "bad rsa signature" message in the server's output, so I regenerated the private key file to be sure I'd used the right one. Everything seems to be in order, but it will not work. Any ideas?

Problem getting stunnel to chroot on Suse 10
by Paul Stepowski 29 May '06

29 May '06

Hi list, I'm using stunnel package that comes standard with Suse 10.0 stunnel 4.10 on i686-suse-linux-gnu UCONTEXT+POLL+IPv4+LIBWRAP with OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005 I can tunnel ports over ssl using stunnel but the chroot directive doesn't seem to be working. E.g. my pid file is being created under / rather than /var/lib/stunnel-syslogng. The other paths in the config file are taken by stunnel as relative to / rather than the chroot directory. What am I missing? Here's my stunnel config. I'm not passing any other flags when running stunnel. ---snip--- client = no #debug = 7 #foreground = yes chroot = /var/lib/stunnel-syslogng setuid = stunnel setgid = nogroup pid = /stunnel.pid #output = stunnel.log socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 #compression = rle #options = DONT_INSERT_EMPTY_FRAGMENTS #verify = 2 #CApath = /certs #CAfile = /certs/stunnel.pem #CRLpath = /crls #CRLfile = /etc/stunnel/crls.pem cert = /var/lib/stunnel-syslogng/certs/stunnel.pem ---snip--- Thanks, Paul

Re: [stunnel-users] stunnel-4.15 segfaulting and looping under FreeBSD-CURRENT

The first, successful (!) call to run_client() seems to leave the ssl context in an undefined state which makes the following calls to run_client() segfault in the forked child which in turn produces the core file. My guess is, that it's not actually supposed to loop if the call to run_client() is successful. Reverting client.c to roughly 4.14 fixes the problem for me. A patch is attached. Any insights and a more permanent fix would be highly appreciated. BTW: I configured stunnel with --with-threads=pthread. By default, ucontext is detected, which is broken in stunnel-4.14 as well. After finishing, 4.14 hangs in s_poll_wait waiting for -1 seconds on 0 fds (!?). I can provide debugging log and gdb output if needed. -- bye, Michael

DNS Spoofing
by Happy Manocha 25 May '06

25 May '06

Hello All, >From Website I came to know Stunnel can help in DNS spoofing. Can someone redirect to know how this can be achieved. Stunnel can help: Protect interception of data Prevent manipulation of data And, if compiled with libwrap support: Defend against IP source routing, (one host sending packets as if they came from somewhere else) DNS spoofing (an attacker forging name server records) Regds Happy Manocha

Using a signed *.domain.com with ssl - Getting "unable to get local issuer certificate"
by Pritesh Mehta 24 May '06

24 May '06

Hello all, I have had a good hunt around and am having trouble finding a solution. I am using stunnel to provide encrypted pop3 access to our mail server, and we have recently purchased a signed *.XXX.com certificate from godaddy. This has been great since I can use the same cert on all our servers, and this has worked cleanly with the webservices. However, I am having some issues with the stunnel and pop3 service. I am not entirely certain whether it is caused by the *.XXX.com certificate (although I think it unlikely) but was hoping someone more knowledgeable could enlighten me? I currently have stunnel configured thusly: stunnel -f \ -A /etc/stunnel/certs/sf_issuing.pem \ -p /etc/stunnel/certs/wildcard.XXX.com.stunnel.pem \ -r 127.0.0.1:110 Unfortunately my users are getting warnings, and using the openssl client I get: $ openssl s_client -connect mail.XXX.com:995 CONNECTED(00000003) depth=1 /C=US/ST=Arizona/L=Scottsdale/O=Starfield Technologies, Inc./OU=http://www.starfieldtech.com/repository/CN=Starfield Secure Certification Authority/emailAddress=practices(a)starfieldtech.com verify error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate verify return:0 --- Certificate chain 0 s:/O=*.XXX.com/OU=Domain Control Validated/CN=*.XXX.com i:/C=US/ST=Arizona/L=Scottsdale/O=Starfield Technologies, Inc./OU=http://www.starfieldtech.com/repository/CN=Starfield Secure Certification Authority/emailAddress=practices(a)starfieldtech.com 1 s:/C=US/ST=Arizona/L=Scottsdale/O=Starfield Technologies, Inc./OU=http://www.starfieldtech.com/repository/CN=Starfield Secure Certification Authority/emailAddress=practices(a)starfieldtech.com i:/L=ValiCert Validation Network/O=ValiCert, Inc./OU=ValiCert Class 2 Policy Validation Authority/CN=http://www.valicert.com//[email protected] --- Server certificate -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- [snip] -----END CERTIFICATE----- subject=/O=*.XXX.com/OU=Domain Control Validated/CN=*.XXX.com issuer=/C=US/ST=Arizona/L=Scottsdale/O=Starfield Technologies, Inc./OU=http://www.starfieldtech.com/repository/CN=Starfield Secure Certification Authority/emailAddress=practices(a)starfieldtech.com --- No client certificate CA names sent --- SSL handshake has read 2381 bytes and written 340 bytes --- New, TLSv1/SSLv3, Cipher is AES256-SHA Server public key is 1024 bit Compression: NONE Expansion: NONE SSL-Session: Protocol : TLSv1 Cipher : AES256-SHA Session-ID: 4E550C07BDA9661C4B532A28110E5616549CB9FA72D37E5C979E3C6579F8FB99 Session-ID-ctx: Master-Key: 2E588101AA098463FA40C0353009F5842FA19B1C3D48D9A0000EB2E241EFB70BB10D52FE9BC444344D49653B9FEB25F4 Key-Arg : None Start Time: 1148463445 Timeout : 300 (sec) Verify return code: 20 (unable to get local issuer certificate) --- I am positive this must have been covered before somewhere, but I haven't been able to find anything conclusive.

<Stunnel> multiple connection
by aliquippa1 23 May '06

23 May '06

Hello I have problem with stunnel. I want to use feature which I'm not sure if is available. I want to accept connection from a host and then connect to a few hosts. I want to have something like this: accept = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx connect = yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:yyyy connect = zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz:zzzz connect = vvv.vvv.vvv.vvv:vvv Now I want to get such situation: 1.accept connection from xxx. 2.try to connect to yyy. 3 if it doesn't work try to connect to zzz. 4 if it doesn't work try to connect to vvv. I wonder if it's possible, because if I use stunnel and connect from xxx it connects me only to the first host and when I connect from xxx again it connects me to the second host and after the third trial from xxx it connects me to vvv. Thanx Agnes
