Writing "hello" to log window when entering a certain service section?
by Ben Stover 15 Oct '13

15 Oct '13

Assume an (unknown) client on my computer connects through stunnel to a remote server. As soon as this local client connects local stunnel the stunnel should write a user specified string line to the log window (if possible in bold letters). Can I define this with a syntax similar to: [gmail-pop3] client = yes output = "hello outgoing alert gmail port 1109" accept = 127.0.0.1:1109 connect = pop.gmail.com:995 Thank you Peter

An issue with chroot, mail.pem and OmniOS/illumos (SunOS)
by Olaf Marzocchi 13 Oct '13

13 Oct '13

Dear all, I have been trying to set up stunnel to encrypt a SMTP connection. The config of the encryption should be fine, I used it already on another OS, but I cannot get stunnel to start on my home server, based on OmniOS (kernel illumos), identified as "SunOS". This is my config: ---- chroot = /opt/omni/var/lib/stunnel/ ; Chroot jail can be escaped if setuid option is not used setuid = nobody setgid = nogroup ;pid = /opt/omni/var/lib/stunnel/stunnel.pid ; Certificate/key is needed in server mode and optional in client mode cert = /opt/omni/etc/stunnel/mail.pem ;key = /opt/omni/etc/stunnel/mail.pem [smtp-tls-wrapper] accept = localhost:11125 client = yes connect = ssl0.ovh.net:465 ;delay = yes ---- and the directories mentioned have the following permissions: ---- OmniOS-Xeon:~ $ ls -al /opt/omni/etc/stunnel/ total 28 drwxr-xr-x 2 root bin 5 Sep 24 23:26 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root bin 6 Sep 23 23:53 .. -rw------- 1 root bin 3050 Sep 24 23:25 mail.pem -rw-r--r-- 1 stunnel stunnel 3247 Oct 13 22:56 stunnel.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root bin 2997 Sep 23 23:53 stunnel.conf-sample OmniOS-Xeon:~ $ ls -al /opt/omni/var/lib/ total 9 drwxr-xr-x 3 root bin 3 Sep 23 23:53 . drwxr-xr-x 4 root bin 4 Sep 23 23:53 .. drwx------ 2 stunnel stunnel 2 Sep 23 23:53 stunnel ---- The service is started from the SMF facility provided by Solaris/OmniOS/... that launches as root/root the following: /opt/omni/bin/stunnel /opt/omni/etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf On execution I get the following error message: … Initializing service section [smtp-tls-wrapper] Certificate: /opt/omni/etc/stunnel/mail.pem Error reading certificate file: /opt/omni/etc/stunnel/mail.pem error queue: 140DC002: error:140DC002:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file:system lib error queue: 20074002: error:20074002:BIO routines:FILE_CTRL:system lib SSL_CTX_use_certificate_chain_file: 200100D: error:0200100D:system library:fopen:Permission denied str_stats: 9 block(s), 1032 data byte(s), 522 control byte(s) … I must be overlooking something but I cannot see my mistake.

stunnel behind http proxy server, only working for port 443
by Heng Su 08 Oct '13

08 Oct '13

Hi All, I try to connect to my stunnel server, however, only port 443 is working. For other ports are not working. Does it mean my company's proxy server is blocking SSL communication on all ports except 443? ( I am a newbie, just assuming stunnel always working with SSL even for 80 port, if I am wrong please point me out, thank you) Is there any other way to bypass the proxy server without SSL communication? Or internal proxy server can always detect tunnel actions if there is non-SSL protocol ? below is my configuration file for client side. /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf ------------------START-------------------------- [https1] accept = 80 protocol = connect protocolAuthentication = basic protocolHost = myvpsserver-ip:80 protocolUsername = myname protocolPassword = p@ssw0rd connect = company-proxyserver:8080 [https2] accept = 443 protocol = connect protocolAuthentication = basic protocolHost = myvpsserver-ip:443 protocolUsername = myname protocolPassword = p@ssw0rd connect = company-proxyserver:8080 ----------------------------END--------------------------------------------- ---------------------------Tunnel PORT 80 ----------------------------- 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: TCP_NODELAY option set on remote socket 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG5[10601:3078687600]: Negotiations for connect (client side) started 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> CONNECT my-remote-server-ip:80 HTTP/1.1 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> Host: my-remote-server-ip:80 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> Proxy-Authorization: basic c3VoZW5nOlBAc3N3MHJk 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG3[10601:3078687600]: CONNECT request rejected 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- Cache-Control: no-cache 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- Pragma: no-cache 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- Proxy-Connection: close 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- Connection: close 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- Content-Length: 725 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- 2013.10.08 14:18:43 LOG5[10601:3078687600]: Connection reset: 0 bytes sent to SSL, 0 bytes sent to socket ---------------------------Tunnel PORT 443 ----------------------------- 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: TCP_NODELAY option set on remote socket 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG5[10601:3078687600]: Negotiations for connect (client side) started 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> CONNECT my-remote-server-ip:443 HTTP/1.1 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> Host: my-remote-server-ip:443 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> Proxy-Authorization: basic c3VoZW5nOlBAc3N3MHJk 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: -> 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- HTTP/1.1 200 Connection established 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG6[10601:3078687600]: CONNECT request accepted 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG7[10601:3078687600]: <- 2013.10.08 14:42:00 LOG5[10601:3078687600]: Protocol negotiations succeeded -- Thanks & Best Regards, Su Heng

Stunnel North American FTP Down?
by Thomas Eifert 06 Oct '13

06 Oct '13

This evening, I'm unable to access the North American Stunnel FTP site. If I go in with Filezilla in passive mode, I can do a directory listing, but the directory is empty. If I use the browser by clicking on the FTP link on the stunnel web page, I get an error 550 Failed to change directory. I was able to access the European site, however. Enjoy the day. -- Attention: This message and all attachments are private and may contain information that is confidential and privileged.

Hi, When a source address connects to a remote destination, via stunnel, what IP address is visible to the destination as the source address? The address of the source or the host where stunnel is running? I see some settings for transparency but I just have a plain connect= for my services. My source and stunnel are on different servers.

by Odays 01 Oct '13

01 Oct '13

Hi all. I need to configure TCPMon+Stunnel to capture the request/response message in the communication with a web services using https. So I download stunnel-4.56-installer.exe and install it. In TCPMon I put that it listen in port 7777 and redirect to port 1234. In Stunnel I put this configuration: client=yes verify=0 [my-https] accept = 127.0.0.1:1234 connect = webservices_server:443 TIMEOUTclose = 0 When i run the scenario I see this log: 2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG7[8612:6032]: Service [my-https] started 2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG5[8612:6032]: Service [my-https] accepted connection from 127.0.0.1:51759 2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG7[8612:6032]: SSL state (accept): before/accept initialization *2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG3[8612:6032]: SSL_accept: 1407609C: error:1407609C:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:http request* 2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG5[8612:6032]: Connection reset: 0 byte(s) sent to SSL, 0 byte(s) sent to socket 2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG7[8612:6032]: Local socket (FD=448) closed 2013.09.30 16:12:57 LOG7[8612:6032]: Service [my-https] finished (0 left) Any idea about this error?

Generic/general mechanism to forward mail servername, login, port from client to stunnel
by Ben Stover 27 Sep '13

27 Sep '13

Refering to my last posting I want to ask a related question: I read in the past somewhere that I can access stunnel from my local email client in more generic way: At first: stunnel always listens AUTOMATICALLY by default on port 127.0.0.1:9999 für incoming request and forwards the prepared/modified request to the outside world. The core parameter are NOT specified in the .conf file but by the User ID which is passed by the local client to local stunnel service. The syntax is as follows: userid=<servername>/<remotes-ssl-tls-port>/<loginname> Example: userid=pop.mail.yahoo.com/995/myname123 So as soon as stunnel receives at 127.0.0.1:9999 an incoming local connect he accepts the following userid string and tokenize it into the three parts. Given these three tokens stunnel is able to connect in the second step the remote mail server WITHOUT any further need of specification in the .conf file. Do I remember this correct? Is this mechanism described somewhere in detail? Thank you Ben

PATCH: multiple SNI options per slave section
by David Owen 27 Sep '13

27 Sep '13

Hello and thank you for stunnel! After switching from my web-server's built-in SSL support, I now have a much more secure system and SNI, too! In stunnel(8), I read this about the sni option: "sni option can also be specified more than once within a single slave service." However, I couldn't get it to work, and reading the source code verified that only one sni option is tracked per section. So, I present my patch to allow multiple sni options. It enables configurations like these: [https] ... [group1] sni = https:a.example.org sni = https:b.example.org ... [group2] sni = https:c.example.org sni = https:d.example.org ... If you have a naming scheme that doesn't lend itself to the wildcard matching already supported, this can cut your config size quite a bit. DETAILS The sni option for any section was originally tracked in the section->sni member (a string). Now, a linked-list of sni options is added to the section structure, with every sni option being appended to the end. For server setup, each slave section walks over its list, splitting each sni option and adding that slave section to the master's slave list. Splitting options and adding slaves to masters works as before, but now the slave section iterates over a list instead of referencing a single string. For client setup, each slave section checks that it has either no sni options, or exactly one. Multiple sni options results in an error. If exactly one option is found, it is copied to the old sni field of the section struct. The old sni field has been renamed to servername_to_request, as it is now used only in client mode, and this makes its purpose more clear. When no sni option is found, servername_to_request is initialized from the protocolHost or connect options, as before. I hope this patch is useful to others. Please let me know how I can make it acceptable for inclusing in the stunnel distribution. Thanks, David

Proxy HTTPS via stunnel without any certificates on proxy/stunnel box
by Gary Chodos 25 Sep '13

25 Sep '13

Greetings, We are trying to decide between SNIProxy and stunnel for the following task: - Client browser hits https://foo.bar.org, which resolves to an IP that corresponds to the stunnel machine listening on 443. - stunnel "forwards" (sorry if this is not the correct technical term) the connection to a different machine, specified by a different IP address, which is also configured to believe it is foo.bar.org and actually has a web server listening on 443 and houses the SSL key/cert. - when stunnel hits the end server, the latter sees the stunnel IP address as source, not the original user's (who initiated the web request for https://foo.bar.org). I believe this is default behavior, but just noting it for completeness. Is it possible to accomplish this (stunnel listening on and connecting to https endpoints) without housing any certs/keys on the stunnel machine itself, because we want the second server to deal with all that and we do not have access to those keys anyway. And of course, the users which go to the https://foo.bar.org should not see any cert mismatches as a result of loading https://foo.bar.org which, for the user, will resolve to the stunnel/proxy IP, rather than the end server which actually had a running web server and keys/cert. Sorry if the above detail is insufficient; do let me know. Thanks for your help. Gary

Port assignment in .conf file for local email client unique?
by Ben Stover 25 Sep '13

25 Sep '13

Assume I want to connect from my local email client to two (!) remote email servers The corresponding instructions in .conf file looks like (my guess): [smtps-firstacct] accept = 127.0.0.1:259 connect = smtps.myisp1.com:465 [smtps-secondacct] accept = 127.0.0.1:259 connect = smtps.myisp2.com:465 Questions: 1.) a configuration like above with the same "accept" port 259 is NOT possible because stunnel does not know to which remote email server he has to connect. To distinguish two different remote email server I always have to select TWO different accept-ports like [smtps-firstacct] accept = 127.0.0.1:259 connect = smtps.myisp1.com:465 [smtps-secondacct] accept = 127.0.0.1:258 connect = smtps.myisp2.com:465 Correct? 2.) Can I use arbitrary accept-ports like 1242 or 23199 or is there a port range from I have to select one? 3.) Moreover assume I want to make the SSL connection transparent can I select an accept-port 25? 4.) I read somewhere that I have always to specify in email client for POP3/SMTP an address 127.0.0.1:9999 and NOT 127.0.0.1:259 in order to connect to local stunnel service. Because local stunnel service is always listening on port 9999. Is this correct? Thank you Ben

Difference between verify=2, 3 and 4
by Nikolaus Rath 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

Hello, Thanks for writing stunnel, it looks like a great tool! I have, however, a really hard time understanding the difference between verify=2,3 and 4. In the manpage, I found verify = level verify peer certificate level 0 - request and ignore peer certificate level 1 - verify peer certificate if present level 2 - verify peer certificate level 3 - verify peer with locally installed certificate level 4 - ignore CA chain and only verify peer certificate default - no verify Levels 0-2 seem pretty clear cut, but then it becomes confusing for me. First, I do not understand how level 3 differs from level2. What does "against a locally installed certificate" mean? It seems to me that I certainly need to have a local copy of the trusted CAs even in level 2 -- at least I hope that they aren't somehow build in to stunnel. But there is also just one CApath option, so will that be used for level 2 or level 3? For level 4, the "ignore the CA chain" path is fine -- but where do I put the peer certificates that I'm willing to accept? CApath seems wrong, but cert is already used for the server's own certificate...

Looking for a tech talk speaker on Secure Networking
by Chris Westin 16 Sep '13

16 Sep '13

I organize the speakers for the SF Bay Area Large-Scale Production Engineering meetup (http://www.meetup.com/SF-Bay-Area-Large-Scale-Production-Engineering/ ; take a look at the "PAST" tab to see the kinds of events we've had). For our event on Thursday October 17, 2013, I'm looking for speakers on the topic of "Secure Networking" (event: http://www.meetup.com/SF-Bay-Area-Large-Scale-Production-Engineering/events… ). As you can see from looking at our past events, I pick a topic, and then try to get 2-3 talks on that topic. Talks are usually 20-25 minutes long. This is a technical audience, and they don't appreciate a marketing pitch. They're eager to get into the nuts and bolts of the topic, including demos, code samples, and architecture. If you're going to be in the Bay Area then, and would be interested in giving a talk, please let me know here, or (preferably) through meetup.com. Thanks, Chris Westin

stunnel accept a t3 connection?
by Scott Sikorski 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

I am curious if stunnel can support listening for an incoming t3 connection? I am having difficulty getting t3s to work between WebSphere and WebLogic for API calls and am curious if an alternative such as stunnel will work. I have stunnel installed betwen a client and the destination host, but the client doesn't seem to want to accept a t3://127.0.0.1:14010 connection but when I change this to http://127.0.0.1:14010 it works fine. Anything you can share would be appreciated. Mostly, if it will never work, that would be nice to know as to not spend more time troubleshooting.

Fullduplex in stunnel
by Krzysztof Kwiatkowski 07 Sep '13

07 Sep '13

Hi, I'm planning to use stunnel to do stress testing of my application. I decided to use stunnel because I've noticed that full-duplex has been added to version 3.2 (around 1999) and my application handles high throughput. AFAIK Stunnel uses openssl. Also I know that openssl doesn't handle fullduplex traffic very well. In fact without any tricks, half-duplex is most what I could get from openssl. As the full-duplex feature has been added to stunnel in 1999 (so long time ago) can you confirm that it is still there and full-duplex is still supported? If it is a case, how it is possible that stunnel handles fullduplex? Krzysztof Kwiatkowski

IRC-Reconnect failed with "[10053] Software caused connection abort"(mIRC) and "SSL_connect: Peer suddenly disconnected"(tstunnel.exe)
by ralf29587＠gmx.de 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi, I have a problem using stunnel with mIRC: I was using a pretty old version of stunnel.exe that was packed with a mIRC script and could be ran as a command-line-only application without a configuration file (supplying all necessary informations parameters). I know that current mIRC version have their own ssl support, but I prefer an old version without because it has much better performance. The old one was used by "stunnel.exe -c -d localhost:<localport> -r <irc-server-ip>:<irc-server-port>" in command line and "/server localhost:<localport>" in irc. A few of my servers stopped supporting an old ssl version, this old stunnel.exe is no longer compatible to the new (open)ssl dll files and so I had to upgrade to the most recent version of stunnel - and I have some problems make it run properly.

The second line shows the new incoming connection from my mIRC. The third line? ... I got no clue why it has to block anything. The fourth line: Successfully connected to IRC-Server? And then the fifth line occurs. I'm not sure if I interpret it right, but for some reason tstunnel.exe is kicking out my connected mIRC client which makes mIRC to tell me "[10053] Software caused connection abort". The whole lines in mIRC are: [12:34pm] * Connect retry #1 localhost (7003) ------------------------------------------------------------ [12:34pm] * [10053] Software caused connection abort ------------------------------------------------------------ [12:34pm] * Disconnected By the way, I have packed libeay32.dll, ssleay32.dll, stunnel.conf and tstunnel.exe in a subdir in mIRC directory and I'm starting it using "tstunnel.exe stunnel.conf" When this error occurs, I have to kill tstunnel.exe and start it again - then everything works fine again. For 1 of 4 servers, I also had this error with the old command-line stunnel.exe and I just wrote a script killing (only this) stunnel.exe and restarting it when this mIRC error occurs. Unfortunately this is no longer possible when tstunnel.exe is using a configuration file and one process is managing all connections. Is there any way I can fix this? (Maybe by fixing the logout of my local mIRC from my local tstunnel.exe?) Best regards

by Alan Chester 29 Aug '13

Hello, I am currently working on using stunnel. I was wondering what everyones thoughts were on the creation of an init script for stunnel. This would help insure that the connections are brought up after a reboot. Or what is the best way to go about handling this? Thanks, Alan

Hi Libin, If possible can you send over your STunnel config file but my guess would be that you would need to include your Root CA and Intermediate CA certificates into your PEM file. I would check to see what https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html says about your certificates another quick test would be to have a look at http://www.digicert.com/help/ to see what they also say about the certificate chains. ~Scott Hi all, > > Sever OS: Linux/Centos 5.9 > SSLServer: Stunnel > ErrorMessage: no certificate available > CertType: SSL Web Server Certificate > Client Browser: Safari 5.1. > Client OS: OS X Lion > > When i am trying to hit the URL on safari browser it shows me the messages > "no certificate available" > No certificate meet the application .

I would try to remove -I/usr//include (and -pedantic) from the compiler flags, but again, I'm no expert in autoconf and cross-compiling.
