Stunnel4 not working?
by David H. Durgee 13 May '15

13 May '15

Given a lack of other suggestions here and elsewhere that yielded any progress, I decided to download the current source and attempt to build it on my system. I didn't see a routine to check for prerequisites being met, so I wound up running ./configure several times and adding the libssl-dev, libwrap0-dev and libsystemd-daemon-dev packages based on what I saw in the output. Perhaps a check routine could be added later? I then ran make and the output contains neither errors nor warnings, so that looks good. As suggested in the INSTALL file, I next ran make check and received neither errors nor warnings. At this point the next step appears to be make install as root, but I am wondering if I should uninstall the stunnel4 package from the repository first. I am also wondering if I can simply use the existing /etc/stunnel/stunnel.conf that I included in my first post in this thread or if I should start over with one of the examples included with this version. I would appreciate input from the list on this. If you want to see further details, such as ./configure or make outputs or configuration files just let me know and I will put them in a follow-up post. Dave

Re: [stunnel-users] Stunnel 5.17 on AIX

Thanks! I applied the patch to tls.c and I'm able to create sessions with no problem. The version of OpenSSL provided by IBM is built off the 1.0.1e codebase, with backported security fixes via "iFixes" for announced CVEs. They apparently don't backport new functionality or maybe even non-CVE bugfixes. I'm guessing an un-patched stunnel 5.17 would work once/if they release OpenSSL built off 1.0.1j or later. > On Tue, May 12, 2015 at 3:40 PM, Michal Trojnara <Michal.Trojnara(a)mirt.net > > wrote: > >> On 12.05.2015 18:29, Eckert, Doug wrote: >> > With that in mind, I compiled stunnel v5.03 with same OpenSSL 1.0.1.513 >> > and iFix IV71446m9a applied as with the v5.17 attempt.

Stunnel 5.17 on AIX

I've gotten v5.17 compiled on AIX 5.3 & 6.1 with the following xlccmp.13.1.0 13.1.0.3 COMMITTED XL C compiler openssl.base 1.0.1.513 COMMITTED Open Secure Socket Layer IV71446m9a Ifix for Openssl CVE Everything seems to have compiled fine.

Stunnel 5.17 build on AIX - libssp missing
by Rob Lockhart 09 May '15

09 May '15

I have AIX 6.1 (64-bit) with GCC 4.2.0. It has an older version of OpenSSL (0.9.8) installed from IBM but I'm trying to compile Stunnel 5.17 with OpenSSL 1.0.2a-fips as non-root. I proceed as follows: cd ~; [ -d openssl ] && rm -rf openssl; mkdir openssl cd ~/OpenSSL; [ -d openssl-fips-2.0.9 ] && rm -rf openssl-fips-2.0.9 gzip -dc openssl-fips-2.0.9.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd openssl-fips-2.0.9; chmod 755 Configure ./Configure aix64-gcc --openssldir=$HOME/openssl make make install NOTE: the above is just the FIPS canister (library), not the executable. cd ~/OpenSSL; [ -d openssl-1.0.2a ] && rm -rf openssl-1.0.2a gzip -dc openssl-1.0.2a.tar.gz | tar xvf - cd openssl-1.0.2a; chmod 755 Configure ./Configure aix64-gcc fips shared --openssldir=$HOME/openssl --with-fipsdir=$HOME/openssl make depend make make test make install cd ~/openssl/bin; ./openssl version; ./openssl speed NOTE: Look for "ALL OCSP TESTS SUCCESSFUL" after "make test" to verify the test build was successful, and it was.

This looks like a reference to a non-existent library but I would think that if GCC needed that, it wouldn't allow the RPM for GCC to be installed. Thanks, -Rob

Stunnel4 not working?

At some point in the near past stunnel stopped working on my laptop. The laptop is running Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca x64 and stunnel from the repositories.

problem migrating from 4.54 to 5.x
by Scott Weisman 04 May '15

04 May '15

Hi there. I have a program I have used successfully with Stunnel for many years. A while back, I discovered that my program, which is a pure stdio console program, stopped working with 5.x versions of Stunnel. I have spent many hours but have been unable to solve the problem, so I regretfully continue to use the 4.x branch. I was wondering if anyone had similar experiences? Relevant data is pasted below. I comment in the log output where the problem occurs. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. stunnel.conf: setuid = stunnel setgid = stunnel pid = /var/run/stunnel/stunnel.pid socket = l:TCP_NODELAY=1 socket = r:TCP_NODELAY=1 foreground = no debug = 7 output = /var/log/stunnel.log [CF2] client = no accept = 21 verify = 3 sslVersion = all cert = /etc/stunnel/demo.pem key = /etc/stunnel/demo.pem CApath = /etc/stunnel/certs CRLpath = /etc/stunnel/crls TIMEOUTbusy = 60 TIMEOUTclose = 0 TIMEOUTconnect = 60 TIMEOUTidle = 60 exec = /opt/cmf/bin/cf-server execargs = /opt/cmf/bin/cf-server -p /opt/jail/stunnel/pipes/ Log of successful session with 4.54: 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: Starting certificate verification: depth=0, /C=US/L=Bryan/ST=TX/O=Demo Account/emailAddress= demo(a)demo.com/CN=demo 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG6[3080:140402563495680]: CERT: Locally installed certificate matched 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG5[3080:140402563495680]: Certificate accepted: depth=0, /C=US/L=Bryan/ST=TX/O=Demo Account/emailAddress= demo(a)demo.com/CN=demo 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read client certificate A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read client key exchange A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read certificate verify A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 read finished A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write session ticket A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write change cipher spec A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 write finished A 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: SSL state (accept): SSLv3 flush data 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 items in the session cache 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 client connects (SSL_connect()) 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 client connects that finished 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 client renegotiations requested 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 1 server connects (SSL_accept()) 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 1 server connects that finished 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 server renegotiations requested 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 session cache hits 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 external session cache hits 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 session cache misses 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: 0 session cache timeouts 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG6[3080:140402563495680]: SSL accepted: new session negotiated 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG6[3080:140402563495680]: Negotiated TLSv1/SSLv3 ciphersuite: ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256-bit encryption) 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG6[3080:140402563495680]: Compression: null, expansion: null 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG6[3080:140402563495680]: Local mode child started (PID=3118) 2015.05.01 15:39:39 LOG7[3080:140402563495680]: Remote socket (FD=11) initialized *** the connection is established and stable;

Segfault in stunnel

Hi, I have a problem with one of the stunnel installation (debian7). After some time of operation automatically turns itself off with the message: (...)

I will only add that the problem has also appeared on the previous version 4.54, which I was updating to the newest. Do you have any idea what could be causing the problem. Regards Mirek
