Local socket keeps listening
by Jorge Redondo Flames 14 Apr '21

14 Apr '21

Hey there, thanks for being there. I have a Client/Server services originally communicating over TCP. The client periodically monitors the socket connection by reading from the socket and, in the case the connection has been lost, the client retries the connection a given amount of times, after which it realizes that the server is definitely down. Now I have implemented secure communication using Stunnel and everything works fine except for the fact that, whenever the server process crashes (which is eventually expected), the client is no longer able to successfully monitor the connection as expected since, no matter what happens to the server process, the local Stunnel daemon keeps listening on its local socket. So, when the client retries connection, it successfully connects to the local socket. Although it soon receives connection reset, this successful connection attempt happening even when the server process is actually down completely breaks the client logic. I could change this logic but I really would like to avoid that path. So here is my question: Is there a way to configure Stunnel to *close* the local socket (not listening anymore) whenever the peer process (i.e. the server) has closed its socket? Thank you very much in advance.

Vulnerabilities cve-2021-3449 and cve-2021-3450
by erik.soudant＠pinkroccade.nl 31 Mar '21

31 Mar '21

Hi, Is there any chance that there will be a new stunnel version (windows) using openssl 1.1.1 k in order to be protected from at least vulnarability cve-2021-3449. And if so when can that be expected? Issue 3450 only concerns1.1.1 H-J so that is not a risk at this moment because the most recent Stunnel version is compiled against 1.1.1c.

SSL_get_peer_tmp_key fail
by stunnel＠paapnet.nl 28 Mar '21

28 Mar '21

Hai, I just tried compiling stunnel 5.58 but it bails out: CC stunnel-client.o client.c: In function 'print_tmp_key': client.c:670:10: warning: implicit declaration of function 'SSL_get_peer_tmp_key'; did you mean 'SSL_get_server_tmp_key'?

Changing it into 'SSL_get_server_tmp_key works' or remming it out probably causes issues... bt it compiles well. Would be great if someone can point me in the right direction. Cheers...

Hello, I've been trying to compile latest version of stunnel for wce (WM6) and just cannot get it to work. I have 0 programming experience and have been trying to follow old guides.

Possible memory leak in stunnel4 3:5.44-1ubuntu3?
by hkdb 21 Mar '21

21 Mar '21

Hi all, I am currently implementing stunnels on an Ubuntu 18.04 container running Magento 2 connecting to AWS Elasiticache (Redis) with the following configuration: Master: fips = no setuid = nobody setgid = nogroup pid = /home/agent/pids/redis-master.pid debug = 1 delay = yes [redis-cli] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:8000 connect = master.awsurl:6379 and the exact same config for the read replica with different "connect" and "accept" values of course. Everything works great except that the container host becomes unresponsive after a few days. Doing a screenshot of the console shows that the host is out of memory and mentions stunnel4 in the same error message. Upon further digging, I found that running the tunnels progressively eats away at RAM over time. Look at the logs when setting debug to 7 shows the following suspect error message: Possible memory leak at ../crypto/asn1/asn1_lib.c:295: 28363 allocations Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Is it a usage/configurations issue or did I discover a memory leak here? If it is in fact a memory leak, does running a later version fix this? Is there a recommended version that I should try to run that's known to work well with Ubuntu 18.04? Thanks a lot in advance for any help on this issue!

Hello everyone I apologize in advance because my English is not the best I'm experiencing a problem with stunnel: On the server I'm running a current version [.] stunnel 5.56 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu platform Compiled / running with OpenSSL 1.1.1d 10 Sep 2019 And on the client an old version [.] stunnel 5.39 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu platform Compiled with OpenSSL 1.1.0c 10 Nov 2016 The case is that I am having an error in the server log as shown below: SSL_accept: ../ssl/record/ssl3_record.c:677: error: 1408F119: SSL routines: ssl3_get_record: decryption failed or bad record mac I did the test by updating the client to the same version and everything works, the question I have is whether there is really an incompatibility between the versions (be it the stunnel or the openssl). Does anyone know how to confirm me if this is real? Thanks Vaz

Hi I have a Windows app that sends email via SMTP without any authentication (port can be set). I want to use it with Office365 SMTP service which requires TLS. Will stunnel allow me to do this without affecting any other application sending email ? If it does, what terms should I be looking for in the help info ? Many thanks Regards David --

Windows Server 2012 R2 - localhost:25 stops listening
by Frank Warnke 23 Feb '21

23 Feb '21

Hi, I have noticed that when I install stunnel (stunnel-5.57-win64-installer.exe or today stunnel-5.58-win64-installer.exe) that running "netstat -ano" comes back with; TCP 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 2700 and the application we are using can send email via Gmail SMTP using the default stunnel.config. When I log out the user and go back in, the application can no longer send email via Gmail SMTP and "netstat -ano" no longer sees anything listening on port 25. I have verified that the stunnel service is running and have even stopped and started the stunnel service, but I am not able to get port 25 to be listened to unless I uninstall and install stunnel over again. It seems like something is setup or started during the stunnel install process that stops or gets killed after a user log outs. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Frank

Seeing Message in Plain Text in Wireshark
by David Brower 28 Jan '21

28 Jan '21

First time user of Stunnel and I just wanted to check what I'm doing wrong. I have two processes running: a TCP Listener that listens on port 13000 and a TCP client that sends it a message. I'm running Stunnel on Windows 10 with the following config: [myapp] client = yes accept = 13001 connect = 13000 cert = stunnel.pem TIMEOUTclose=0 I updated the TCP client to send the message to port 13001 but when I check Wireshark I can still see the contents of the message in plaintext. Shouldn't I no longer be able to see the unencrypted contents of this message?

Stunnel intercept and modify payload
by Sealside - 26 Jan '21

26 Jan '21

Hi! I'm wondering if it is possible to modify payload before it is encrypted? I have a stunnel config which intercepts TLS. I have the following config: [server] client = no cert= /etc/stunnel/stunnel.pem accept = 127.0.0.1:11010 connect = 127.0.0.1:12220 [client] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:12220 connect = remoteserver_ip:12222 So when posting TLS messages on port 11010 from my TLS-client on the same server, I can connect to port 12220 using tcp-dump and read the payload unencrypted. Is it possible to alter the payload before it is sent? In that case any pointers would be appreciated , I have tried searching but it does not seem to be a common use case. Would be great if I could tunnel it somewhere else and back (external python program). Thanks in advance, S

installation v run ad-hoc
by Andrew Zenz 21 Jan '21

Hi there, a bit of background to start. We are using SEE4C (from marshallsoft.com) for sending email from our application, and have been for some time. We call various functions from their see32.dll. It has been sitting on the back-burner for some time, but now we must implement TLS/SSL for outgoing mail. MarshallSoft don't do TLS/SSL themselves, instead passing that responsibility on to stunnel by way of an internal function I have been reading MarshallSoft's doco and find that I have to 'install' stunnel and have it running in the background either as a services or starting it when the user logs on (in the Startup group). I also read in their doco regarding mapped drives: MAPPED DRIVES Beginning with Windows 10 update 1803, all executables (such as SEE application programs, SEE32.DLL/SEE64.DLL, and Stunnel) must be loaded from a local drive, not a mapped drive. Unfortunately the requirement to install stunnel and inability to run it from a mapped drive doesn't suit many of our clients installation base. Many of them run our application from a mapped drive. I also don't want the overhead of installing stunnel on each workstation that needs to send email or distribute and maintain configuration files. I have enough work to do. Can stunnel be called (started) on an ad-hoc basis and stopped again, only when email is being sent? I don't mean to whine, what options do I have, do our clients have? Cheers, Andrew
