Connection issues after upgrading to 5.51 (macOS)
by Dennis Preiser 10 Apr '19

10 Apr '19

Hi, I have been using stunnel for quite a long time on macOS without any problems. Specifically, I use this to connect to an nntps server. This is the corresponding config section: | [nntp2] | client = yes | accept = 127.0.0.2:1119 | connect = news.individual.de:563 With 5.50 everything goes well: | 2019.04.06 10:48:05 LOG5[2]: Service [nntp2] accepted connection from 127.0.0.2:49366 | 2019.04.06 10:48:05 LOG5[2]: s_connect: connected 130.133.4.10:563 | 2019.04.06 10:48:05 LOG5[2]: Service [nntp2] connected remote server from 192.168.200.102:49367 I can read news without further log entries. After the upgrade to 5.51 I can not read any news anymore. As soon as I want to read an article the connection breaks down: | 2019.04.06 10:54:09 LOG5[0]: Service [nntp2] accepted connection from 127.0.0.2:49189 | 2019.04.06 10:54:09 LOG5[0]: s_connect: connected 130.133.4.10:563 | 2019.04.06 10:54:09 LOG5[0]: Service [nntp2] connected remote server from 192.168.200.102:49190 | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: transfer() loop executes not transferring any data | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: please report the problem to Michal.Trojnara(a)stunnel.org | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: stunnel 5.51 on x86_64-apple-darwin18.5.0 platform | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.1.1b 26 Feb 2019 | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 TLS:ENGINE,FIPS,OCSP,PSK,SNI | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: protocol=TLSv1.2, SSL_pending=0 | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: sock_open_rd=Y, sock_open_wr=Y | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN=n, SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: sock_can_rd=n, sock_can_wr=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: ssl_can_rd=n, ssl_can_wr=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: read_wants_read=Y, read_wants_write=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: write_wants_read=n, write_wants_write=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: shutdown_wants_read=n, shutdown_wants_write=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG3[0]: socket input buffer: 0 byte(s), TLS input buffer: 0 byte(s) | 2019.04.06 10:54:19 LOG5[0]: Connection reset: 2151 byte(s) sent to TLS, 3546 byte(s) sent to socket | 2019.04.06 10:54:21 LOG5[1]: Service [nntp2] accepted connection from 127.0.0.2:49191 | 2019.04.06 10:54:21 LOG5[1]: s_connect: connected 130.133.4.10:563 | 2019.04.06 10:54:21 LOG5[1]: Service [nntp2] connected remote server from 192.168.200.102:49192 | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: transfer() loop executes not transferring any data | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: please report the problem to Michal.Trojnara(a)stunnel.org | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: stunnel 5.51 on x86_64-apple-darwin18.5.0 platform | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: Compiled/running with OpenSSL 1.1.1b 26 Feb 2019 | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: Threading:PTHREAD Sockets:POLL,IPv6 TLS:ENGINE,FIPS,OCSP,PSK,SNI | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: protocol=TLSv1.2, SSL_pending=0 | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: sock_open_rd=Y, sock_open_wr=Y | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN=n, SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: sock_can_rd=n, sock_can_wr=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: ssl_can_rd=n, ssl_can_wr=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: read_wants_read=Y, read_wants_write=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: write_wants_read=n, write_wants_write=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: shutdown_wants_read=n, shutdown_wants_write=n | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG3[1]: socket input buffer: 0 byte(s), TLS input buffer: 0 byte(s) | 2019.04.06 10:54:23 LOG5[1]: Connection reset: 163 byte(s) sent to TLS, 435 byte(s) sent to socket Downgrading to 5.50 solves this issue for the time being. Are there any changes between 5.50 and 5.51 that could explain this behavior? Dennis

Issues after upgrading stunnel to v5.51 on Windows
by stunnel＠alpiston.com 07 Apr '19

07 Apr '19

Hello, I've been using stunnel v5.50 (x64-pc-mingw32-gnu) to encrypt RTSP traffic between two Win10 Pro computers without any problems. However, after upgrading to stunnel v5.51 the RTSP traffic has started to stutter (as the framerate has dropped to almost nothing, from 20 fps to 0.01 fps to be precise), and the few frames that are actually transferred arrive visually corrupted. After enabling debugging at level 7, I get the following (some parts have been obfuscated for privacy reasons): 2019.04.08 00:53:51 LOG7[main]: Found 1 ready file descriptor(s) 2019.04.08 00:53:51

Stunnel 5.51 Pop3 Problem?
by Colin 07 Apr '19

07 Apr '19

Hello, I'm new to this list and looking for advice/help with release 5.51 for Windows. I have three accounts, Yahoo, Aol and Gmx and I use Foxmail 5 with Stunnel. I use pop3 with all accounts and sometimes when retrieving mail I may decide to 'Not Fetch' any mail on the server that looks 'iffy' untill I've looked at it via the mail providers website. Now I've just upgraded to version 5.51 (over 5.50) and when checking any of the said accounts I can't see any mail that hasn't been fetched (the server looks empty.) But if I login to the mail website the unfetched mail is there to view for all accounts. I reverted to version 5.50 and now I can see the unfetched mail for all accounts in my 3rd party software. Therefore my question is: Is there a problem (bug??) with 5.51 which stops me from seeing unfetched pop3 mail or do I have to add something to the config file to make it work properly? Thanks...Colin

Is there a Win32 installer that supports sslVersionMin = TLS1.2?
by kent loving 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

I need to run a client on Win XP that connects to a server using TLS 1.2 or higher. Jose Alf posted that he made a test build of 5.50 in a win32 installer but uses OpenSSL 1.0.2p. And it does not seem to be official. The changelog says version 5.49, which has a win32 installer, also uses OpenSSL 1.0.2p. I can't tell if it supports TLS1.2. The man page implies I need OpenSSL 1.1.1 to get the sslVersionMin option. And, OpenSSL says v1.0.2 support ends in 9 months. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks, Kent Loving

OpenVPN with stunnel

Hi, To bypass the office firewall to access home server, I'm trying to run openvpn over port 443 with stunnel.

ERR_SSL_VERSION_INTERFERENCE on Google Chrome v 73.0.3683.86 and stunnel v5.51b1
by Kolan Koala 25 Mar '19

25 Mar '19

I cannot get TLS 1.3 to work with Chrome. TLS 1.3 works fine in firefox quantum v 66.0.1 over the same hardware, so this is not caused by middleboxes. It is a fault with stunnel or Chrome. ERR_SSL_VERSION_INTERFERENCE error occurs in Chrome and will not connect. For now the solution is to turn off TLS v1.3 in stunnel configuration and force TLS v1.2, but this is not a long term solution. Does anyone have a solution to use TLS 1.3 with chrome and stunnel together? Kolan

No more Win32 stunnel?
by John Hall 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

I've only just discovered that stunnel is seemingly no longer being updated for Win32; at any rate there has been no version 5.50 released for Win32. It would have been nice if there had been an announcement to that effect, as until now I was only subscribed to the announcements mailing list and had thus been in blissful ignorance. (For some reason I never saw ANY announcement for 5.50 - in fact I still seem to be on 5.47.) Given that there are a number of ports to different OSs by various people, is there any chance that someone might supply a Win32 port for future versions? (Sadly I lack the knowledge to do that myself.) -- John Hall

Verify peer immediately
by Phillip Hellewell 21 Mar '19

21 Mar '19

Hi, I have verifyPeer = yes in my client stunnel.conf. Is there any way to make it verify the peer right away instead of waiting until a connection is made (to the accept port)? I run stunnel with foreground = yes and would like it to exit right away if the peer doesn't have the appropriate cert/key. Thanks, Phillip

dhparam and others
by mlrx 02 Mar '19

Hello, This is my first run with stunnel. I have unbound and stunnel on openBSD to do DNS-over-TLS and it works (fine). I want now to enforce TLS security so I added the following options: sslVersion = TLSv1.2 options = CIPHER_SERVER_PREFERENCE ciphers = [list] curve = [name] When it will be ready to production, I will add: verify = 3 CA* OCSP* For now, I don't find any information about using dhparam file. Something like SSLOpenSSLConfCmd DHParameters "/path/to/file.pem" in Apache. How can I do it possible? Could you point me some informations or the path to do it please? Could you confirm that I can't use TLS1.3 for now in stunnel? May be you could have some security advices ? Best regards, -- mlrx

Tunnel from win32 to Unix
by Eetu Pikkarainen 26 Feb '19

26 Feb '19

Hi, I am a totally newbie with this. We have intranet system in Windows Server (32bit) which reads a database (Oracle) situated in Unix machine via a tunnel made by Putty.exe. That works well except that the connection gets lost every now and then and it must be manually logged in every time. So I decided to try stunnel which we used earlier to read email from email server. However I cannot set the connection successfully. This is what I have tried now (among many other alternatives): [Kanto2] client = yes accept = 127.0.0.1:1501 connect = kanto2.oulu.fi:22 protocolUsername = <username> protocolPassword = <password> stunnel reads the configuration OK except this notification: [:] Service [Kanto2] needs authentication to prevent MITM attacks but when the database is tried to read happens this: 2019.02.18 13:32:30 LOG5[1]: Service [Kanto2] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:64699 2019.02.18 13:32:30 LOG5[1]: s_connect: connected 130.231.240.100:22 2019.02.18 13:32:30 LOG5[1]: Service [Kanto2] connected remote server from 130.231.241.250:64700 2019.02.18 13:32:30 LOG3[1]: SSL_connect: 140770FC: error:140770FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unknown protocol 2019.02.18 13:32:30 LOG5[1]: Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to TLS, 0 byte(s) sent to socket I have tried different protocol alternatives with no help. What could be the problem? Is this kind of use even possible? thanks Eetu Pikkarainen PhD (Ed.), (Title of) Adjunct Prof., University Lecturer (in Education) Faculty of Education, University of Oulu, Finland Research Group: https://wiki.oulu.fi/display/theored Latest publications: Semiotic Theory of Learning: New Perspectives in the Philosophy of Education.

Stunnel 3.50 Win - CAPI stopped working
by pepak＠seznam.cz 18 Feb '19

18 Feb '19

Hello, I have encountered a bug in Stunnel version 3.50. I have a setup with two computers (Server and Client) connected using Stunnel. The client is using a hardware token through the CAPI engine to authenticate itself to a server, using a config file: ----- fips = no taskbar = yes options = NO_SSLv2 options = NO_SSLv3 sslVersion = TLSv1.2 engine = capi [my-server] client = yes accept = 22 connect = my.server.com:1234 requireCert = yes verifyChain = yes verifyPeer = yes CAfile = my-cert-chain.pem engineId = capi ----- This setup works perfectly in Stunnel 3.49: When I try to connect to localhost:22, I receive a request to select a certificate and enter its PIN, and if successful, a connection to my server is established. In Stunnel 3.50, the connection fails to complete. The Stunnel log shows: LOG5[0]: Service [my-server] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:49713 LOG5[0]: s_connect: connected 1.2.3.4:1234 LOG5[0]: Service [my-server] connected remote server from 10.11.12.13:49714 LOG5[0]: Certificate accepted at depth=0: CN=My server LOG3[0]: error queue: 141F0006: error:141F0006:SSL routines:tls_construct_cert_verify:EVP lib LOG3[0]: SSL_connect: 8006F074: error:8006F074:lib(128):capi_rsa_priv_enc:function not supported LOG5[0]: Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to TLS, 0 byte(s) sent to socket However, if I change the engine to the default one and use a certificate in file, everything works fine. That suggests to me that the problem lies in the Stunnel's CAPI engine library. It is quite possible the problem is caused by the CAPI engine itself. I was experimenting with OpenSSL 1.1.1a some time back, trying to compile my own library files, and I just couldn't to get CAPI to work at all - the libraries themselves compiled OK and worked fine, but the CAPI engine just wouldn't work (while it was OK with OpenSSL 1.0.2q); the only way I could get CAPI to work with OpenSSL 1.1.1a was to use the 1.1.1a libraries and the 1.0.2q capi.dll. However, I am far from an expert on compiling OpenSSL, so I may have gotten it completely wrong. Could someone please verify that their CAPI engine is working with Stunnel? Also, it may be worth trying to compile a 64bit CAPI.dll from version 1.0.2q just to see if it might start working - in that case, a bug report to OpenSSL may be in order. Thanks. pepak

Timeout's issue / network stunnel on virtual apps
by Marian Andrei Olteanu 17 Feb '19

17 Feb '19

Hi all, I have a client - server application which works as following. The server is hosted in a linux machine and the clients are up in citrix(XEN) virtual machines. I have enable stunnel encry. in between this environments but i keep getting some connection issues from time to time. To be more clear the client application starts a session for you from the virtual machine (xen) so the stunnel.exe running there in the server is meant to encrypt traffic of around 100 users(from win AD who have access to use that resource in the server) , port configured in VM machine 1001 accept - linux.host:1002 connect with linux accept on 1002 - localhost:1000. the channel opened between the VM and Linux is used by many users simultaneous. Could please tell me what is happening here?Is this architecture able to work? thank you in advance. Marian

stunnel stopped working today, had to reboot server
by Christopher Schultz 14 Feb '19

14 Feb '19

Hello, I'm new to the list so I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to report this. I had a server stop responding to stunnel connections sometime yesterday and the resolution was ultimately to reboot the server and everything was okay. Restarting the stunnel service was not enough to get things working again. I isolated the problem to stunnel by checking that the underlying service (a Java web application) would respond from the localhost machine (it did) but an openssl s_client connection to localhost:stunnel-port would connect but not proceed past the CONNECTED(3) state. Ultimately, it would time-out. stunnel was not logging anything to syslog when these connections came in. Outgoing stunnel connections seemed to be okay. Looking through the log file, I could see that there were some odd messages coming from stunnel in the daemon.log file suggesting that there might be a memory leak. I won't post them here unless requested, as they may represent a potential security issue. My concern is that a service-restart for stunnel was not sufficient. This suggests a problem which goes deeper than the stunnel service. Is it possible for stunnel to break in such a way that it continues to be broken after a restart? I'm sorry, in retrospect, I was not 100% sure that the service did indeed stop and launch a new process when running /etc/init.d/stunnel restart, but there were no errors and the service-runner did report that the service was restarted. My (simplified) configuration and version information is posted below. Please let me know if there is any other information I might be able to provide in order to investigate this. Note that this is a package-managed version of stunnel, provided by the Debian package-maintainers. Thanks, -chris PS Thanks for a wonderful product. I've relied on stunnel for years to proxy these unencrypted AJP connections for me. Cheers for all your great work.

Re: [stunnel-users] Problem with name resolving on Centos 7
by tom 13 Feb '19

13 Feb '19

Hello, > Are you sure 'foobar.remote.site' should resolve? > Does "ping foobar.remote.site" work? yes, the host is resolved on commandline and other services on this system can reach this host. > Do you have a /var/run/stunnel/etc/resolv.conf file? No at this time I dont have this file, but it doesnt change anything if I copy the original from /etc to this lokation. But this brings me to the point try to dissable chroot and in this case stunnel is working as expected. So far so good - there is something wrong in the chroot jail. I try to put it to /var/run/stunnel - no luck, but maybe there are other files missing as well? regards Tom
