Stunnel Windows Server 2008 R2
by 541401＠gmail.com 29 Aug '14

29 Aug '14

I have installed stunnel 5.03 on Windows Server 2008 R2 X64. When I run it as an application it works perfectly. When I install and run the service, it starts but the start notice window, title bar, says Stunnel 5.03 win32 (not configured). It appears that the stunnel service is not reading the stunnel.conf. If anyone has any suggestions how I can successfully run stunnel as a service, I would be very appreciative. Thank you!

SSL Server Allows Anonymous Authentication Vulnerability
by Michael Curran 25 Aug '14

25 Aug '14

I am looking at this vulnerability reported from McAfee -- but we use stunnel to secure our communications and not the application directly. Are these settings that I can make within the stunnel config -- or something comparable? SSLProtocol -ALL +SSLv3 +TLSv1 SSLCipherSuite ALL:!aNULL:!ADH:!eNULL:!LOW:!EXP:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM

Odd complication between VM clients, same host
by afpteam＠sbcglobal.net 24 Aug '14

24 Aug '14

Hi, Much appreciation to Stunnel and OpenSSL for a long, successful provision. I can't be sure yet if the concern below is Stunnel or OpenSSL related. I've surfed Google and found nothing similar. Stunnel package with integral OpenSSL is current release. I recently had to secure and connect two public facing client machines on the same Citrix Xen 6.2 release, running Server 2003 x 64 bit. I typically use Stunnel with self generated Pem, for securing short term TightVNC sessions. The config is always fairly generic, loopback allowed, securing across 127.0.0.1 Typically I don't make name references in the .conf profile, just accept / connect on related ports. This is the first time I recall ever pointing two VM's at each other. I have tried both service and gui on both Stunnel and VNC. Tried both application listing and discrete port listing in the server's windows firewall. I have tried updating security to the Admin account as owner or Administrators, in general. I have tried launching either or both as Administrator. When VNC client viewer calls to Server, Stunnel sees the connect, succeeds the Pem and stops. If I restart the stunnel service at the server, the viewer auth dialog suddenly succeeds. I question if this remains secured but clearly isn't practical for application. Both VM's are connected to me via RDP at the time, if this might relate to an Auth violation. I tried multiple VMs to eliminate anything related to a bungled VM config. I'm guessing there is some kind of circular routing restriction possibly. Citrix does use an X-window console to each VM on the control path, but in other instances there's never been any conflict. Not sure how to determine if the issue is config, Stunnel or OpenSSL or how to resolve it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Regards and thank you again, Mike

verify=4
by oweijr oweirj 12 Aug '14

12 Aug '14

Hello, In the stunnel documentation, I see the following: level 4 Ignore CA chain and only verify peer certificate. My interpretation of level 4 was that only the server certificate had to be installed on the client in order for the cert verification to pass. No issuer/CA certificates were needed. However, when I do this, the connection fails. I see this following in the logs with verify=4: 2014.08.12 21:17:57 LOG7[26768]: Starting certificate verification: depth=0, subject=/C=US/CN=a.b.com 2014.08.12 21:17:57 LOG4[26768]: CERT: Verification error: unable to get local issuer certificate 2014.08.12 21:17:57 LOG4[26768]: Certificate check failed: depth=0, subject=/C=US/CN=a.b.com 2014.08.12 21:17:57 LOG7[26768]: SSL alert (write): fatal: unknown CA 2014.08.12 21:17:57 LOG3[26768]: SSL_connect: 14090086: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed My config file contains the following: verify = 4 CAfile = /opt/stunnel/certs/clients.pem chroot = /opt/stunnel setuid = stunnel setgid = stunnel pid = /run/stunnel.pid debug = 7 output = stunnel.log options = NO_SSLv2 cert = /opt/stunnel/certs/server.pem key = /opt/stunnel/certs/server.pem If I append the issuer certificate to the CAfile, after the peer certificate, then the connection is successful with verify=4. Is this expected behavior? Is there a verify level that works as I described above: only the peer certificate needs to be present, no CA/issuer certificates at all? Thank you for your help.

Windows Certificate Store
by j nasty 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

I haven't been able to get a definitive answer and can't find the information I need through traditional searching around. Anyways, is it possible to have sTunnel access the Windows certificate store to get the certificate that will be used for client authentication? If so, how can this be configured in sTunnel's configuration file? Or can you at least point me in the direction I can find the information I'm looking for? Many thanks in advance everyone!
